Non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) is one of the most frequently diagnosed malignancies worldwide.Previous studies have shown that microRNA-449b (miR-449b) functions as a tumor suppressor in many cancers.However,the role of miR-449b in NSCLC is still unknown.In the present study,miR-449b was significantly downregulated in NSCLC samples and cell lines.Bioinformatics analysis revealed that 3'-UTR region of leucine rich repeat containing G protein-coupled receptor 4 (LGR4) mRNA had putative complementary sequences to miR-449b,which was further confirmed by the luciferase assay.Western blotting showed that restoration of miR-449b in NSCLC cells decreased the expression of LGR4.Interestingly,over-expression of miR-449b inhibited growth and invasion of NSCLC cells in vitro.Furthermore,ectopic expression of LGR4 reversed miR-449b-suppressed proliferation and invasion of NSCLC cells.Therefore,the data of the present study demonstrate that miR-449b inhibits tumor cell growth and invasion by targeting LGR4 in NSCLC.

Objective To explore link of change of plasma C-reactive protein (CRP) and atrial fibrillation (AF). Method The hsCRP enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) methods were used to measure plasma CRP levels in 21 patients with lone paroxysmal AF (LPAF) during AF and 7 days after return to sinus rhythm ;28 patients with lone sustained atrial fibrillation(LSAF) and 27 patients with rheumatic heart disease and chronic AF(RHD).Levels of plasma CRP were compared to levels in 32 patients with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia(PSVT) and 20 voluntary healthy subjects. Results Patients with LPAF,LPAF and RHD had high levels of CRP when compared with PSVT and the healthy subjects.No significant changes of CRP levels were found between the onset AF patients and those after 7 days of recovery.Patients with lone persistent AF and rheumatic heart disease with persistent AF had higher levels of CRP than those with LPAF,but have no significance.There were positive correlation between the duration of AF and the levels of CRP.But there were no relation with left atrial size on echocardiography,sex and ages. Conclusion These results indicate that elevated CRP levels in AF patients may play an important role in the occurrence and sustainment of AF.

Objective To observe the effect of magnesium valproate sustained release tablets on children with epilepsy and its effects on cognitive function.Methods Magnesium valproate sustained release tablets were conducted on 38 cases.Close attention was paid to both the degree of paroxysm control and side effects during treatment while periodic examinations on liver function and blood routine were also conducted.The intelligence and P300 of children with epileptics were respectively measured before and after 6-month treatment.Forty children of control group was set up.Results Eighteen cases were totally under controlled(47.4%),11 obviously effect(28.9%),6 effect(15.8%).The total effective rate in total was 92.1%.Obvious differencees in intelligence between children with epileptics and control group before and after 6-month treatment were observed(all P0.05).Conclusions Magnesium valproate sustained release tablets is a new type of broad-spectrum anti-epileptic drug,which has an obvious effect on treatment of children with epileptic without any obvious adverse reaction.It imposes little influence on children′s cognitive function.

Objective To study the difference of expression of proteins in pancreatic cancer and adjacent fissue.Methods Proteomes of eight pairs of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma tissue samples and adjacent tissue samples were obtained by high resolution two-dimensional gel electrophoresis(2-DE).Comprehensive analyses of proteins were focused on total protein spots exhibiting statistical alternations between the two groups.Protein identification was done by peptide mass fingerprinting with tandem mass spectrometry(MS/MS).In addition,Western blotting and immunohistochemistry were performed to verify the expression of certain candidate protein.Results A total of 28 protein spot-features were found to be significantly increased and 17 significantly decreased in tumor tissues.Thirty of these protein spots were identified,which included enzymes,antioxidant proteins,signal transduction proteins,calcium-binding protein,structural proteins,chaperones and others.Western blotting and IHC further validated up-regulated expressions of one candidate protein(annexin II)in tumor tissues.Conclusions The analysis of proteomics with 2-DE on human tissue is a useful method for discovering valuable cancer marker candidates.These differential expressed proteins may serve as biomarkers for early detection and therapeutic targets to pancreatic cancer.

Objective To evaluate the expression of KAII (CD82) gene inhibited by small interfering RNA (siRNA) in human pancreatic cancer cell line T3. Methods Four sequences of siRNA including A, B,C, D were designed, which were based on the KAI1 gene sequence using online RNA interfering designing software and lentivirus vector was built. Then they were used to transfect T3 cells by liposome 2000 and virus titer was determined. Empty vector containing siRNAd1 lentivrus particle ( MOI =5) was also used to infect T3 cells. The expression of CD82 mRNA was detected by real-time PCR. Results The expression of CD82 mRNA in normal control group, empty vector group, A group, B group, C group, D group were 1. 398 ±0.242,1. 311±0.048, 0. 664 + 0. 093, 0. 345 ± 0. 032, 0. 641 ± 0. 049 and 0. 147 ± 0. 049, respectively, the difference between the expression of CD82 mRNA in empty vector group and that of A, B, C, D groups was significant (P＜0.01 ). Conclusions RNAi was able to inhibit the expression of KAI1 gene CD82 in human pancreatic cancer cell line T3.

Objective To explore the characteristics of illness attribution of outpatients with multiple somatic symptoms in Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Methods It was a cross-sectional study conducted from March to October,2012. A total of 150 outpatients were recruited from the departments of Gastroenterology,Traditional Chinese Medicine and Psychological Medicine by convenience sampling. Somatic symptom scale of the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-15) was used to screening each patient in the waiting list. With the cut-off value of 10,patients were divided into the somatic symptom positive (SOM+) group and somatic symptom negative (SOM-) group. Sociodemographic characteristics were compared between these two groups. All the subjects completed interviews including questions about illness attribution. All the answers of illness attribution were concluded into three major groups as physical factors,situational factors and psychological factors. Results The proportion of female was significantly higher in SOM+ group than in SOM-group (69.3% vs. 53.3%;χ=4.048,P=0.044). In SOM+ group,significantly more patients contributed their illness to psychological factors (64.0% vs. 45.0%;χ=5.273,P=0.022). There was no significantly difference between SOM+ group and SOM-group on the phenomenon of multiple illness attribution (41.0% vs. 32.0%;χ=1.407,P=0.236). However,in the Department of Gastroenterology,there were significantly more outpatients in SOM+ group with multiple illness attribution (60.0% vs. 32.0%;χ=3.945,P=0.047).Conclusions The outpatients in general hospital with multiple somatic symptoms are more likely to contribute their illness to psychological factors. The phenomenon of multiple illness attribution is common among patients. Clinicians should increase their awareness and knowledge of illness attribution,so as to provide better holistic health services.
