Objective To verify whether the concomitant performance of modified radical inguinal lymphadenectomy and penectomy may increase complications and compromise oncological effectiveness.Methods From June 2002 to June 2010,a total of 110 simultaneous inguinal lymphadenectomies were performed on 55 patients (mean age 49 years),including 107 modified radical lymphadenectomies,2 radical lymphadenectomies and 1 lymphadenectomy before which the sapheous vein was resected.The records of all patients were reviewed.Results Of 107 simultaneously modified radical inguinal lymphadenectomy,only 1 (0.9%) had wound infection.There were 18 ( 16.8% ) leg lymphedema and 6 (5.6%) skin flap necrosis,postoperatively.The average number of inguinal lymph nodes dissected was 11 (3 -23 ).Overall 3-year survival was 84%.Conclusions Penile surgery combined with simultaneously modified radical inguinal lymphadenectomy could be feasible,which may have oncological control without increasing the risk of surgical complications.

Objective To report a modified radical inguinal lymphadenectomy the aim of which is to reduce the incidence of the complication of skin necrosis.Methods One hundred and twenty-six modified radical inguinal dissections were performed in 63 patients with penile carcinoma from June 2002 to June 2010.A modified radical inguinal dissection characterized by an S-shaped incision and precisely separating layers using an anatomical mark was performed.The boundaries of dissection were the same as classic radical inguinal lymphadenectomy.The incidences of complications of skin flap necrosis were retrospectively analyzed.Results The follow-up time ranged from 12 to 93 months.A total of 37 complications occurred,including 7 minimal skin necroses (5.6%),3 wound infections (2.4%),19 lymphedemas (15.1%),2 seroma formations (1.6%),5 lymphocele (4.0%),and 1 deep venous thrombosis (0.8%).There were no complications in 106 dissections (84.1% ),and 20 dissections had one or two minor complications ( 15.9% ).Conclusions The complication of skin necrosis related to groin dissection in patients with penile carcinoma could be reduced by using this modified inguinal dissection technique,which characterized by an S-shaped incision and precisely separating layers with using an anatomical landmark.

Objective To make the identification of medicinal herbs in Salvia L. quickly and accurately. Methods In this work,DNA barcoding and chemical fingerprint were compared for the identification of herbs in Salvia L. First, the nucleotide sequences of the internal transcribed spacer region two amplified from 48 medicinal plants in Salvia L., and three other groups of medicinal plants in Lamiaceae were sequenced. A molecular phylogeny was constructed using the minimum evolution and maximum parsimony methods according to their sequence diversity. Second, the water-solution bioactive components and lipid soluble components were tested by HPLC. Then a chemical phylogeny was built using HPLC fingerprint data. Comparing the molecular and chemical phylogenetic trees revealed many similarities. Results DNA barcoding was sequencing based and could therefore provide more accurate results within a shorter time especially in large-scale studies. Conclusion The results show that ITS2 region is a novel DNA barcode for the authentication of the species in Salvia L. This is the first work to show the relationship between DNA barcoding and chemical components.

Objective To investigate the risk factors,clinical and coronary angiographic characteristics in women less than 50 years with coronary heart disease(CHD).Methods One hundred and twenty-six women less than 50 years were divided into CHD group and non-CHD group according to the result of coronary angiography(CAG).Risk factors,clinical and coronary angiographic characteristics were investigated retrospectively.Results In 6395 cases who were given CAG in the corresponding time period,126(1197%)women were less than 50 years,and 44 cases were confirmed as having CHD by CAG[CHD group,mean age(46.8±3.6)years)].Meanwhile 82 cases were in non-CHD group[mean age(45.4±4.3)years)].The incidence rate of hypertension[77.3%(34/44)vs 26.8%(22/82)],diabetes mellitus[34.1%(15/44)vs 4.9%(4/82)],hyperlipidemia[43.2%(19/44)vs 7.3%(6/82)],family history of CHD[43.2%(19/44)vs 7.3%(6/82)],and risk factors of family history of CHD[52.3%(23/44)vs 12.2%(10/82)]had significant difference between CHD group and non-CHD group(P<0.01).88.6%(39/44)CHD palients were acute coronary syndrome,50.0%(20/44)lesion was one-vessel lesion.Left anterior descending coronary was involved most easily.The degree of calcification was lighter.The type.of lesion was mostly localized and segmented.Conclusions Hypertension,hypedipidemia,diabetes mellitus,family history of CHD,and risk factors of family history of CHD are the major risk faetom in women less than 50 years with CHD. The possibility of CHD is higher when having classical angina and multiple risk faetom.

Objective This study aims to investigate the effect of Lipoxin A4 receptor on acute lung injury (ALI) induced by intestine ischemia-reperfusion (IIR). Methods Thirty-two 8-week old SD rats were randomly divided into four groups: sham, intestine ischemia-reperfusion (IIR), IIR + BML111 (BML-111), Boc-2 + IIR +BML111 (Boc-2). BML-111 (1 mg/kg) was given intraperitoneally at the onset of reperfusion in the BML-111 and the Boc-2 group. Boc-2 (50 μg/kg) was given intraperitoneally after anesthesia in the Boc-2 group. Rats were subjected to superior mesenteric artery occlusion consisting of 45-min ischemia and 6-h reperfusion, and the sham laparotomy was served as controls. The lung pathology was assayed by the H&E staining. Lung water content was detected using dry/wet ratio. Concentrations of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in lung tissue were determined by ELISA. The protein expression of p38 MAPK and NF-κB of lung was assayed by western blot. Results IIR induced serious ALI, with poor lung pathology and increased lung water content, elevation of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 levels in lung, accompanied with activation of p38 MAPK/NF-κB pathway. However, BML-111 could inhibit the activation of p38 MAPK/NF-κB pathway, leading to the reductions of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in lung and attenuation of IIR-induced ALI. Conclusion BML-111 treatment could attenuate inflammation in lung after IIR injury via inactivating the p38 MAPK/NF-κB signaling pathway.

OBJECTIVEBy using the RNAi method to inhibit Itk protein expression specificity, to observe lymphocytes proliferation and cytokines production, verify its function as a drug target.
METHODSDesigned siRNA aims at Itk sequence according to its sequence and solid structure, then electrotransfected into mouse spleen lymphocytes, We validated the decrease of Itk protein by Western-Blot, and detected the change of the cell proliferation by MTS and the change of inflammatory cytokines by ELISA.
RESULTSItk protein can be suppressed by Itk-siRNA, there were significantly reduced compared to its control group on cell proliferation as well as cytokine secretion such as IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IFN-gamma. They all have statistical difference (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONItk has an important immunomodulatory effect in mouse spleen lymphocytes proliferation and secretion of inflammatory cytokines.This can supply an experimental basis to regard Itk as drug target for inflammation therapy.

The mRNA levels of adiponectin in adipose tissue and adiponectin receptor R1 in skeletal muscle of type 2 diabetic rats were examined by semi-quatitative RT-PCR.The expression of adiponectin receptor R1 was not altered in the skeletal muscle of type 2 diabetic rats as compared with normal rats.The serum adiponectin level was decreased in diabetic rats due to the decline of adiponectin mRNA level in adipose tissue and rosiglitazone improved the adiponectin deficiency.
