Objective To explore the expression and significance of Annexin Ⅱ protein in ovarian adenocar-einoma.Methods The expressions of Annexin Ⅱ protein were detected in 48 cases of ovarian adenocarcinoma and 10 cases of ovarian adenoma by SP immunohistochemistry.Results The positive rates of expression of Annexin Ⅱprotein in ovarian adenoma were 50.00% (5/10), and were 81.25% (39/48) in ovarian adenocareinoma (χ2 =4.414, P <0.05), in well and moderately-differentiated, poorly differentiated ovarian serous adenocarcinoma were 93.33% (14/15) and 78.95% (15/19) respectively (χ2 = 1.383 ,P0.05 ), and on the Ⅰ and Ⅱ stage, Ⅲ and Ⅳ stage of ovarian serous adenocarcinoma were 60.00% (6/10) and 95.83% ( 23/24 ) respectively (χ2=7.226, P <0.05).The positive rate in the group of ovarian serous adenocarcinoma with lymph node metastasis was 90.00% (27/30), while 50.00% (2/4) in the group without lymph node metastasis (χ2=4.502, P<0.05).Conclusion The positive expression of Annexin Ⅱ protein may be correlated with the carcinogenesis, development and lymph node metastasis of ovarian serous adenocarcinoma.

Aim To evaluate the reversal effect of 2-deoxy-D-glucose ( 2-DG ) on multidrug resistance ( MDR) by observing the uptake change of 99m Tc-MIBI in HNE-1/DDP cells, and to explore its mechanism. Methods The uptake of 99m Tc-MIBI in HNE-1/DDP cells under different concentrations of 2-DG was detec-ted by γ-counter, and the clearance rates of 99m Tc-MI-BI in HNE-1 cells and HNE-1/DDP cells after treated with 2-DG (10 mmol·L-1 ) were compared. The con-tent of ATP in HNE-1/DDP cells was detected after treated with 2-DG. P-glycoprotein ( P-gp ) and multi-drug resistance-associated proteins ( MRP ) expression were measured by Western blot. Apoptotic HNE-1/DDP cells treated with DDP alone or combined with 2-DG (10 mmol·L-1 ) were detected by propidium io-dide ( PI ) staining. Results The clearance rate of 99m Tc-MIBI in HNE-1/DDP cells was 54. 8%, which was significantly higher than that ( - 41. 3%) in HNE-1 cells (P<0. 01). The clearance rate of 99mTc-MIBI in HNE-1/DDP cells was -203. 7% after treat-ment with 2-DG ( 10 mmol · L-1 ) , which could be significantly reduced compared with the control group ( P<0. 01 ) . The level of ATP was 55 . 69% compared with the negative control group and the expression of P-gp and MRP protein decreased dramatically in HNE-1/DDP. With the combination of 2-DG and DDP, the ap-optotic rate of HNE-1/DDP cells reached 49 . 4%which was significantly higher than DDP treated group (22. 5%) . Conclusion Multidrug resistance and the reversal effect of 2-DG on multidrug resistance could be evaluated effectively by detecting the uptake change of 99m Tc-MIBI in HNE-1/DDP cells. The mechanism may be related with the inhibition of ATP level and the re-duced expression of P-gp and MRP protein in cancer cells.

OBJECTIVE:To provide scientific reference for rational,effective and economical drug use in pediatric depart-ment. METHODS:A total of 9771 prescriptions were randomly selected from children's branch of our hospital during May 2012-Apr. 2016. Those prescriptions were analyzed statistically in respects of drug type,prescription cost,utilization rate of injec-tion,utilization rate of essential medicine,clinical diagnosis,irrational drug use,use of antibiotics,etc. RESULTS:Among 9771 prescriptions,2.91 types of drugs were used in each prescription,and each prescription expended 77.10 yuan;utilization rate of in-jection was 57.11%,and that of national essential medicine was 67.80%. Respiratory tract disease was main disease (84.17%). There were 284 irrational prescriptions(2.91%),including 156 non-standard prescriptions,165 unsuitable prescriptions and 65 ex-traordinary prescriptions. Utilization rate of antibiotics was 18.25%,among which that of Cefoxitin sodium injection was the high-est(15.48%),but its utilization index was the lowest(0.58). The detection rate of microorganism isolated from bronchitis patients was in low level(45.10%). CONCLUSIONS:The rate of qualified prescription in the children's branch of our Hospital is higher than the requirement of the former Ministry of Public Health concerning the rate of qualified prescription >95%;utilization rate of antibiotics and injection are both in high level. In the future,it is necessary to strengthen prescription evaluation and promote stan-dard and rational use of drugs so as to guarantee safe,effective and economical use of drugs in clinic.

The relationship between visfatin.endothelin, and insulin resistance in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus was explored. Endothelin, visfatin, and other markers were compared. Plasma visfatin was reduced after therapy. Endothelin was positively correlated with fasting insulin, HOMA-IR, HOMA-p, and visfatin. Visfatin was positively correlated with endothelin, HbA1C , fasting insulin, and HOMA-IR. HOMA-IR was an independent related factor in influencing visfatin. The visfatin is related to endothelin and insulin resistance, which may contribute to the pathogenesis of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Objective To probe into the pathogenesis of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) by studying expression of TLR4 acetylation in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of gravida with GDM as well as its role in TLR4 inflammatory pathway. Methods 30 normal gravidas and 30 gravidas with GDM were enrolled in the study, 15 mL peripheral blood from every participant was collected for extraction of mononuclear cells via density gradient centrifugation and culturing in vitro by LPS. The expression of TLR4 acetylation in the mononuclear cells was detected using immunoprecipitation and western blot and the levels of inflammatory cytokines, TNF-α, IL-1 and IL-10 in the supernatant were detected by ELISA. Results TLR4 acetylation appeared positive in GDM group, and negative in the control group. After the LPS intervention, the degree of TLR4 acetylation was enhanced significantly and the latter was significantly higher than those of the GDM group and the normal + Lps group (P < 0.05). The differences in the levels of inflammatory cytokines, TNF-α, IL-1, IL-10, were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion TLR4 acetylation exists in mononuclear cells of gravida with GDM, and mediates the release of inflammatory cytokines by influencing the activation of TLR4 inflammatory pathobenesis, which contributes to the promoted antiinflammatory - proinflammatory imbalance in gravidas. In this way, it is involved in the growth of GDM.

Perinatal depression, one of the most common complications in the perinatal period, has a significant impact on the physical and mental health of mothers and children.At present, it is difficult to diagnose perinatal depression at an early stage, so objective and effective biomarkers are of great significance for the early detection and treatment of perinatal depression. In recent years, the exploration of biomarkers for early diagnosis of perinatal depression has become a hot research topic, mainly in sex hormones, neuroendocrine-related hormones, immuno-inflammatory molecules, genetics, and epigenetics.This article reviews the research progress of the biomarkers of perinatal depression in recent years.

Objective To observe the effect of early bundle therapy on prognosis of patients with sepsis/septic shock and analyze the risk factors for death.Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted to select patients with sepsis/septic shock at the Second Soochow University Hospital betweenJanuary 1,2016,and December 31,2016.Data pertaining to demographic variables,compliance rate of bundle therapy,and incidence of organ failure were collected.Patients were categorized into the nonsurvivor or survivor groups based on 28-day mortality.Logistic regression analysis was used to identify risk factors for 28-day mortality.Results Totally 118 sepsis/septic shock patients were included in the analysis;28-day mortality was 32.2%.Compared to the survivor group,patients in the non-survivor group were more likely to have chronic heart dysfunction and cerebrovascular disease,lower lactate clearance,lower 6-h compliance rate of bundle therapy and higher incidence of failure of one or >2 organs.Age,leukocyte,blood urea nitrogen,creatinine,brain natriuretic peptide,sequential organ failure score and acute physiological and chronic health scores Ⅱ on admission,and lactate after bundle therapy were higher than that of the survivor group.Logistical regression analysis showed that age ≥ 75 years [odds ratio (OR)1.012],6-h lactate clearance <30% (OR=1.122),chronic heart failure (OR=1.741),failure of >2 organs (OR=1.769),and 6-h compliance rate of bundle therapy (OR=1.958) were independent risk factors for 28-day mortality.Conclusions Patients with sepsis/septic shock need early diagnosis and resuscitation to improve the compliance rate of bundle therapy and reduce the mortality.
