1.Toll-like receptor 4 and human fibrotic diseases
Journal of Shanghai Jiaotong University(Medical Science) 2009;29(7):873-876
Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), the natural receptor of lipopolysaccharide(LPS), plays an important role in the regulation of acute inflammation, intracellular signal transduction and cell apoptosis. TLR4 over expresses in both acute inflammation and fibrotic tissues, which suggests that TLR4 may be essential in acute inflammation and subsequent fibrosis. Nowadays, some progress has been made in the exploration of TLR4 in pathogenesis and treatment of liver cirrhosis and pulmonary fibrosis. TLR4 may become a new target in the treatment of human fibrotic diseases including liver cirrhosis and pulmonary fibrosis. The research status of TLR4 in human fibrotic diseases and its future development are reviewed in this paper.

Objective To investigate the clinical effects and safety of combination of open and laparoscopic surgery in treatment of elderly patients with gallbladder stones combined with common bile duct stones. Methods 140 elderly patients with gallbladder stones combined with common bile duct stones from May 2014 to May 2015 were randomly divided into control group (65 patients) with traditional open surgery and observation group (65 pa﹣tients) with combination surgery; then compared the perioperative clinical indicators, the total removal rate of stone, the postoperative analgesic used rate and postoperative complications incidence of the two groups. Results The oper﹣ation time, intraoperative blood loss volume, the exhaust time for first time and hospital staying time of observation group was significantly better than control group (P< 0.05). There was no significant difference in the total removal rate of stone between the two groups (P> 0.05). The postoperative analgesic used rate of observation group was sig﹣nificantly lower than control group (P< 0.05). The postoperative complications incidence of observation group was significantly lower than control group (P< 0.05). Conclusion Compared with traditional open surgery, combination surgery in treatment of elderly patients with gallbladder stones combined with common bile duct stones can efficient﹣ly shorten the operation time, speed up the recovery process, reduce the degree of trauma and postoperative pain and helpful to prevent the postoperative complications.

The study is to investigate the pharmacokinetics of S-1 capsule (tegafur, gimeracil and potassium oxonate capsule) in patients with advanced gastric cancer after single and multiple oral administration. Twelve patients with advanced gastric cancer were recruited to the study. The dose of S-1 for each patient was determined according to his/her body surface area (BSA). The dose for single administration was 60 mg every subject. The dose for multiple administration for one subject was as follows: 100 mg x d(-1) or 120 mg x d(-1), 28-days consecutive oral administration. The pharmacokinetic parameters of tegafur, 5-fluorouracil, gimeracil, potassium oxonate and uracil after single oral administration were as follows: (2,207 +/- 545), (220.0 +/- 68.2), (374.9 +/- 103.0), (110.5 +/- 100.8) and (831.1 +/- 199.9) ng x mL(-1) for Cmax; (11.8 +/- 3.8), (4.4 +/- 3.3), (7.8 +/- 5.1), (3.1 +/- 0.9) and (8.8 +/- 4.1) h for t1/2, respectively. After six days oral administration, the average steady state plasma concentrations (Cav) of tegafur, 5-fluorouracil, gimeracil, potassium oxonate and uracil were (2,425 +/- 1,172), (73.88 +/- 18.88), (162.6 +/- 70.8), (36.89 +/- 29.35) and (435.3 +/- 141.0) ng x mL(-1), respectively, and the degree of fluctuation (DF) were (1.0 +/- 0.2), (2.5 +/- 0.4), (3.1 +/- 0.8), (2.4 +/- 0.8) and (1.5 +/- 0.3), respectively. The cumulative urine excretion percentage of tegafur, 5-fluorouracil, gimeracil and potassium oxonate in urine within 48 h were (4.2 +/- 2.8) %, (4.7 +/- 1.6) %, (18.5 +/- 6.0) % and (1.7 +/- 1.2) %, repectively, after single oral administration of S-1. The results exhibited that tegafur had some drug accumulation observed, and gimeracil, potassium oxonate, 5-fluorouracil and uracil had no drug accumulation observed.

Actin cytoskeleton in podocyte is a complicated network structure,and the stability of this structure depend on many proteins which located in slit diaphragm,the apical membrane domain and the basal membrane domain with the stimulus of mechanical stress,the actin cytoskeleton can be adaptive regulated to maintain the normal function of glomerulus,and several signal pathways involve in the process,such as RhoA/Rho kinase signal pathway and TRPC6.

Objective Direct amplification of length polymorphism (DALP) as a new molecular marker was used to establish a set of stable DALP reaction system for the plants of Rhodiola L. Methods Some significant parameters of DALP reaction procedure were investigated and optimized by taking the DNA genome for the plants of Rhodiola L. as template. Results The reaction system was : 20 ?L reaction system containing 2. 5 mmol/L Mg2+ , 1. 25 mmol/L dNTPs, 60 ng DNA template, 1 ?L 5 pmol/L selective primer, 3 ?L 5 pmol/L reverse primer, selective primer: reverse primer is 1 : 3, and 2 U Taq DNA polymerase. Amplification program is 95℃ pre-denatured for 5 min, 94℃ denatured for 30 s, 50℃ annealed for 30 s, 72℃ extending for 1 min; after 30 cycles, and then 72℃ extending again for 10 min to the end of PCR reaction. Conclusion This DALP reaction system is efficient to identify the species and local populations for the plants of Rhodiola L. repeatedly with the stronger stability and reliability.

Objective To investigate the effects of Shen-fu injection on pulmonary contusion rabbits. Meth-ods Sixteen rabbits were randomly divided into 2 groups: the treatment group (Shen-fu group) and the control group. The animals were induced the pulmonary contusion models. After 60min, the animals in Shen-fu group re-ceived Shen-fu injection received 5 ml/kg, and those in control group 5 ml/kg LRS. The animals were killed six hours later, the right lung tissue wet-to-dry (W/D) ratio and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity were obtained,the pro-tein expression of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) were also detec-ted. Results The lung tissue W/D, MPO, and the protein expression of NF-κB and ICAM-1 were decreased evi-dently in Shen-fu group (P<0. 01). The morphologic and ultrastructural damages in Shen-fu group were milder than in control group. Conclusion Shen-fu injection is effective on pulmonary contusion rabbits.

AIM:ToinvestigatetheeffectofIkarosisoformsontheproliferationofhumanovariancancerSK-OV3 cells.METHODS:Three isoforms of Ikaros, IK1, IK2 and IK6, were transfected into ovarian cancer SKOV3 cells. CCK-8 assay and cell counting were used to detect the effects of Ikaros isoforms on the proliferation of SKOV 3 cells.The cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry .The cell cycle-related proteins were detected by Western blot .RESULTS:IK1 and IK2 expression inhibited SKOV 3 cells proliferation .Flow cytometry analysis indicated that IK 1 and IK2 induced SK-OV3 cell cycle arrest at the G 1 phase.IK6 isoform exerted no obvious effect on the proliferation or cell cycle of SKOV 3 cells.Compared with control EV group , IK1 group and IK2 group showed a dramatic elevation in the expression of the cell cycle inhibitor p21, along with a substantial decrease in the expression of the cell cycle inducers cyclin D 1 and cyclin D2, which did not change in IK 6 group.CONCLUSION:IK1 and IK2 significantly inhibit the proliferation of ovarian cancer SKOV3 cells and induce cell cycle arrest at G 1 phase by regulation of cell cycle-related proteins cyclin D1, cyclin D2 and p21, while IK6 isoform exerts no obvious effect on the proliferation and cell cycle of SKOV 3 cells.
