Objective To investigate the involvement of estrogen receptor(ER)? in the proliferation of ovarian clear cell adenocarcinoma by restoring ER? expression in a cell line ES-2.Methods A plasmid with full length ER? cDNA,pRSV-ER? and its negative vector control pRSV were introduced into ES-2.The cells transfected were named according to the plasmids:ES-pRSV,ES-pRSV-ER?.RT-PCR and western blot were used to detect the expression of ER? in ES-2,ES-pRSV and ES-pRSV-ER? cells.The growth activities of cells in vitro were detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT)assay,and in vivo growth in nude mice was also observed.Flow cytometry was performed to show the change of cell cycles. Results The ES-pRSV-ER? cells were identified with ER? mRNA and protein expression.The growth activities of ES-pRSV-ER? were inhibited in vitro.In MTT analysis,the values of ES-2,ES-pRSV,and ES- pRSV-ER? cells were 0.78?0.05,0.81?0.06,and 0.53?0.07(the third was lower compared with the former two,P

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of greenlight photoselective vaporization of the prostate(PVP) for benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH) in aged patients.Methods A total of 90 aged patients with BPH underwent PVP with an 80 W KTP laser(Laserscope Company) under sacral or peridural anesthesia.Results The operative time was(42.5?18.4)min;the postoperative urinary catheter time was(2.5?0.8)d.Qmax increased significantly from(4.8?1.2)ml/s preoperatively to(18.6?1.4)ml/s postoperatively(t=22.566,P=0.000).International prostate symptom score decreased from(25.5?2.4)points preoperatively to(13.2?1.9)points postoperatively(t=12.286,P=0.000).Residual urine decreased from(76.3?9.4)ml preoperatively to(16.5?2.4)ml postoperatively(t=21.901,P=0.000).Transient dysuria occurred in 4 cases and postoperative delayed hemorrhage in 2 cases.No urinary incontinence occurred.Conclusions PVP for BPH is a safe and effective procedure,and suitable for aged and high-risk patients with BPH.

Objective:To transfer human endostatin gene into umbilical cord CD34 + hematopoietic stem cells and detect its expression and excretion. Methods: Human endostatin gene was transferred into human umbilical cord CD34 + hematopoietic stem cells by retroviral pLNCX to build endostatin-transferred cell line.RT-PCR and Western blot analysis were applied to examine the transfection and expression of endostatin gene. Results:RT-PCR proved that genome of endostatin-transferred CD34 + hematopoietic stem cells contained a 550 bp fragment of human endostatin .The expression and excretion of human endostatin from endstatin-transferred hematopoietic stem cells were confirmed by Western blot analysis. Conclusion:Human endostatin gene can be transferred into CD34 + hematopoietic stem cells.

Objective To summarize the experience in treating coronary artery fistula (CAF) by using Guglielmi detachable coils. Methods During the period from July 2009 to November 2014 at the Affiliated Changhai Hospital of Second Military Medical University, interventional treatment of CAF by using Guglielmi detachable coils was performed in 40 patients. The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. The feasibility, safety and effectiveness of this technique were evaluated. Results Successful transcatheter closure of CAF with Guglielmi detachable coils was achieved in all 40 patients; the average Guglielmi detachable coils used in each patient was(2.33±1.38) coils. No procedure-related complications occurred. Intra-operative angiography showed that residual shunt completely disappeared in 12 patients (30%) and blood flow was significantly decreased in 28 patients (70%). All the patients were followed up for 1-65 months, neither complications such as recurrent bleeding and ischemia nor stenosis and occlusion of related arteries, or fistula cavity rupture occurred. Conclusion The use of Guglielmi detachable coil in interventional treatment of CAF is safe and effective, although its long-term effect needs to be further verified.

A method based on HPLC-ICP-MS was established to separate the reaction products of ( ethylenediamine) palladium(Ⅱ) chloride([Pd ( en ) Cl2])and 5’-deoxyguanylic acid ( 5’-dGMP). Two reaction products were detected at pH 8. 0 with 25 mmol/L phosphate buffer solution as chromatography eluent. One was the main product with HPLC retention time of 2. 8 min, the other product’s retention time was 3.2 min. According to ESI-MS(MS/MS) study, m/z=510, 511, 512, 514, 516[M+1]+ parent ions ( abundances same to palladium isotopes) were detected. Further analysis showed that the main product was[Pd( en) ( N1-5’-dGMP) ]. However the other product was hardly to be detected by ESI-MS. By using HPLC-DAD and HPLC-ICP-MS, we found that the two reaction products had the same UV absorption spectra and palladium percentage content. Combined with other groups’research, the other reaction product was deduced as dimmer, trimer or tetramer form of[Pd( en) ( N1-5’-dGMP) ]. Further study revealed that[Pd( en) ( N1-5’-dGMP) ] was easily formed in acid solution while its polymer form was generated in alkaline solution. At pH 6. 0, [Pd(en)(N1-5’-dGMP)] was formed within 12 hours with good stability. Research also revealed that the total amount of two reaction products declined as reaction pH climbed.

Objective To study the prediction value of C-reactive protein (CRP) level to ankylosing spondylitis disease activity score (ASDAS),the most widely used activity score in ankylosing spondylitis (AS).Methods A total of 386 patients with AS were enrolled and divided into 2 groups by CRP≥3.5 mg/L (n =266) and CRP ＜ 3.5 mg/L(n =120).ASDAS-CRP was evaluated in patients with CRP below the normal range (3.5 mg/L) in different subgroups.Three methods were used to test the consistency between ASDAS-CRP and ASDAS-erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR).Results The ASDAS-CRP showed a good correlation with the ASDAS-ESR when CRP level was ≥ 3.5 mg/L (r =0.899,P =0.000).In the group of CRP ＜ 3.5 mg/L,ASDAS-ESR showed better consistency with ASDAS-CRP when CRP level was below 1.5 mg/L(intra-class correlation coefficient 0.902;kappa coefficient 0.70).By the evaluation of variant gradient matrix,CRP 1.5 mg/L coincided with disease activity states.Conclusion There is good consistency between ASDAS-CRP and ASDAS-ESR.When CRP level is below the normal range,1.5 mg/L could be a cut-off value to calculate the optimal ASDAS-CRP score.

Objective To analyze antimalarial assosiated retinopathy detected by different methods with of modern ocular fundus examination, and explore screening strategy and the diagnosis of hydroxych-loroquine assosiatedretinopathy according to clinical experience and international guidelines. Methods Full fundus examination was performed in two patients with antimalarial retinopathy. The related literature were reviewed. Results Two patients had bull's eyes maculopathy and abnormal visual fields. Conclusion Clin-icians' alertness to hydroxychloroquine related retinopathy may improve early diagnosis of hydroxychloroquine toxicity. New objective tests are more sensitive than visual fields examination. Visible bull's-eye maculopathy is a late change, and the goal of screening is to recognize toxicity at early stage.
