Objective The aim of this study was to analyse characteristics of CRC in a cohort under the age of 40 .Methods Using single center retrospective cohort study ,we reviewed the prospectively collected database of 2 897 colorectal cancer patients who had undergone curative CRC resections in Chongqing Medical University between 2010 and 2014 .175 patients (5 .8% ) were under 40 ,in which six patients for various reasons (including recurrent colorectal cancer hospital ,incomplete information ,etc .) were excluded .A group of 180 consecutive patients over the age of 40 undergoing surgery for colorectal cancer in the same centre was used as control .Results There had no difference in tumor classification and tumor location between the younger group (<40) and the older group(>40) ,but the lymph node positive rate in younger group was higher ,unable to accurately grasp the preopera‐tive lymph node status ,lead to lack of preoperative staging ,and that made it difficult to preoperative treatment options .Conclusion Therefore ,to young people in colorectal preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiation indications and the assurance of intraoperative re‐section range ,we need to do more consideration.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate off-indication use of oral chemical drugs medical orders by the standards of CFDA and FDA,and to compare the differences between the two standards,analyze reasons and rationality of drug use,so as to pro-vide reference for establishing off-indications use management system. METHODS:The oral chemical drugs medical orders of inpatients were analyzed statistically during Jan.-Jun. 2016. Off-label uses was judged according to the standards of CFDA and FDA. RESULTS:Totally 507 oral chemical drugs medical orders were collected,the percentage of off-indications use were in high level,being 58.58% and 55.82% respectively by the standards of CFDA and FDA. The incidence of off-indication use of quetiapine and aripiprazole by the CFDA standards were significantly higher than the results of FDA standards,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Magnesium valproate(54.03%),escitalopram oxalate(10.45%)and quetiapine(10.15%)occupied the top 3 places in the list of constituent ratio. Among off-indication medical orders,7 orders had no evidence-based medicine,ac-counting for 2.36% of total. CONCLUSIONS:Most off-indication medical orders of our hospital could provide the basis and lit-erature support,while there are still a few off-indication use with insufficient evidence. The corresponding management system of the hospital should be formulated to guarantee the medication safety of the patients and legitimate rights and interests of the doctors.

50?mol/L induced markedly oncotic cell death,but no apoptosis was observed.TEM examination indicated that a form of cell death accompanied by cellular swelling,organelle swelling and vacuolization,mitochondrial swelling and cristae membrane loss,and nucleus swelling, chromatin scattering or karyolysis,which characterized as oncosis.When treated with 50,200?mol/L of ART for 5 h, the intracellular ROS level of Panc-1 cells markedly increased to 1.60 and 4.49 fold compared with that of untreated cells,respectively.Pretreatment with TCEP effectively attenuated ART-induced intracellular ROS level and decrease the oncosis in Panc-1 cells.Conclusions:ART exerts profound cytotoxic effects on Panc-1 cells and induces an oncosis- like cell death,which is quite different from apoptosis.The cellular generation of ROS and its peroxidation damage may be one of the mechanisms for its anti-tumor effect on pancreatic cancer.

AIM:To determine the injured effect of cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) from subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH) after cerebral lymphatic blockage(CLB) on PC12 cells. METHODS:SAH and CLB models of adult New Zealand rabbits were used. CSF was obtained from experimental animals after 5 d of modeling and was added into cultured PC12 cells. The cells were randomly divided into blank control(F12 Ham's),normal CSF,SAH CSF,and SAH+CLB CSF groups. At different time points,the survival rate of PC12 cells was measured by MTT assay. LDH leakage was detected. Expression of Bax and heat-shock protein 70(HSP70) was determined by immunohistochemical staining. RESULTS:MTT assay and detection of LDH leakage revealed that the survival rate of PC12 cells was obviously inhibited and the leakage of LDH increased in SAH CSF group and SAH+CLB CSF group. CSF from normal rabbit did not damage the PC12,as compared to blank controls. Above effects were more obvious in SAH+CLB CSF group than those in SAH CSF group. Bax and HSP70 protein expression was found in both SAH CSF group and SAH+CLB CSF group. Expression of Bax protein in SAH+CLB CSF group was stronger than that in SAH CSF group in a time dependent manner. At 0.5 h and 1 h,the expression of HSP70 protein in SAH+CLB CSF group was stronger than that in SAH CSF group,whereas the expression became weaker at 2 h and 4 h in that group. CONCLUSION:Blockage of cerebral lymphatic drainage pathway deteriorates the damage of CSF from SAH on PC12 cells,indicating this pathway may acts as an endogenous protective mechanism in SAH.

Objective To investigate the influence of cerebral lymphatic blockade (CLB) on apoptosis of hippocampal neurons after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in rats. Methods Healthy adult Wistar rats were randomly assigned to normal control group,SAH group and SAH + CLB group. SAH model was induced by double injection of autologous blood into the cistema magna. On day 3 after second injection, hippocampal cell shape structure of each group were determined by hematoxylin-eosin staining (HE) and propidium iodide (PI) staining. Terminal-deoxynucleotidy transferase mediated nick end labeling (TUNEL) fluorescent was used to determine the situ apoptosis. Immunohistochemistry was conducted to study the expression of caspase-3 and Bcl-2 in hippocampal neurons. Results (1) HE staining and PI staining showed the hippocampal neurons of SAH rats were partly shrink,and nuclei showed wavy or folded seam-like,some crescent-shaped; the hippocampal neurons in SAH + CLB group distributed sparsely,nuclear fragmentation,apoptotic bodies could be seen,surrounded by vacuole formation, Compared with the SAH group, the number of apoptotic cells in SAH + CLB group was significantly increased(the number of apoptotic cells: 0.71 ±0.05,25.36 ±4. 02,37. 82 ±5.93, P<0.01). (2) The fluorescence intensity of positive cells by TUNEL stain in SAH group and SAH + CLB group was higher than in normal control group,while the SAH + CLB group was significantly higher than the SAH group (the fluorescence intensity: 0.19 ±0.03,1.70 ±0.37,2.54±0.53, P<0.01). (3) The fluorescence intensity of caspase-3 in SAH group and SAH + CLB group was higher than the normal control group, while the SAH + CLB group was significantly higher than the SAH group (the fluorescence intensity: 0.14 ±0.03,2.45 ±0.49,2.96 ±0.44, P<0.01). (4) The fluorescence intensity of Bcl-2 in SAH group and SAH + CLB group was higher than the normal control group, while the SAH + CLB group was significantly lower than the SAH group(the fluorescence intensity: 0.58 ±0.08, 3.40 ±0.61,2.67 ±0.44, P<0.01). Conclusion Cerebral lymphatic blockade induce the apoptosis of hipp-ocampal neurons in rats after SAH,which mechanism may be related to high expression of caspase-3 and low ex-pression of Bcl-2.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the effects of periodontal treatment on the clinical response, systemic inflammatory parameters, and metabolic control of type 2 diabetes patients with moderate to severe periodontitis.

METHODSA total of 56 patients with mean clinical attachment level (CAL)>3 mm were included in the subgroup analysis. A repeated-measures ANOVA (group factor: treatment group and control group; time factor: initial visit, 1.5, 3, and 6 months) was used to analyze the probing depth (PD), CAL, bleeding on probing (BOP), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and fasting plasma glucose.

RESULTSSignificantly lower PD (F=62.898, P-0.000), CAL (F=51.263, P-0.000), BOP (F=75.164, P=0.000), hsCRP (F=6.391, P=0.010), HbA1c(F=4.536, P=0.011), and fasting plasma glucose level (F= 3.073, P=0.031) were observed after therapeutic periodontal improvement. The inter-group differences for PD (t=-2.050, P=0.045), BOP (t=-4.538, P=0.000), and hsCRP (t=-2.261, P=0.028) were statistically significant after therapy.

CONCLUSIONNon-surgical periodontal treatment can effectively improve periodontal status, circulating inflammatory status, and metabolic control of diabetic patients with moderate to severe periodontitis.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of periodontitis on the expression of apoptosis-related proteins in pancreas of rats with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.Methods:Spontaneously type 2 diabetic OLETF rats were randomly divided into 2 groups:diabetes with or without periodontitis(diabetes group and combination group).LETO rats with the same germline and the same age but having normal glucose tolerance were randomly divided into control group and periodontitis group.20 weeks after periodontitis were established,all the rats were sacrificed and the pancreas were pathologically examined by HE staining.The expression of Bax,Bcl-2 and Caspase-3 in the pancreas islet were detected by immunohistochemistry staining and semi-quantitative analysis.Results:The expression of Bax, Bcl-2 and Caspase-3 in the pancreas islet was no significant difference between control and periodontitis groups(P=0.324,P=0.091,P=0.852).Compared with diabetes group,the expression of Bax and Caspase-3 in combination group showed a significant increase(P=0.000,P=0.000),and the expression of Bcl-2 was significantly decreased(P=0.022).Conclusion:Under healthy conditions,periodontitis has no effect on the expression of apoptosis-related proteins in rat pancreas islet.However,in rats with diabe-tes,periodontitis may affect the expression of apoptosis-related proteins in pancreas islet.

BACKGROUND:Stable and efficient labeling of dental pulp stem cel s in vitro is most important in tracer technique, which is also the basis of tooth regeneration in vivo.
OBJECTIVE:To determine the optimal condition and method for transfection of stem cel s derived from rat dental pulp with green fluorescent protein infection by lentiviral vector and to determine whether green fluorescent protein-labeled dental pulp stem cel s maintain their stem cel properties.
METHODS:Rat dental pulp stem cel s were obtained by modified enzyme digestion method, to identify the immune phenotype and differentiation potential. Dental pulp stem cel s were infected with green fluorescent protein by lentiviral vector for 24 and 48 hours at different multiplicity of infection (MOI) (5, 10, 25, 50 and 100). The infection efficiency and fluorescence intensity were analyzed by inverted fluorescent microscopy. The clonal and proliferation ability, cel cycle and the mineralization potential were compared before and after transfection. Based on those mentioned above, we could evaluate the influence of infection on their biological characteristics.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Flow cytometry results showed that rat dental pulp stem cel s expressed STRO-1 and CD146 but not CD34 or CD45. The dental pulp stem cel s could differentiate into osteoblasts and
adipocytes when cultured in specific medium for each lineage differentiation. The highest efficiency of infection and strongest fluorescence expression appeared at 48 hours of infection and MOI 50. There were no significant differences in growth ability, cel colony formation rate and cel cycle before and after transfection (P>0.05). And the alkaline phosphatase expressed positively. Infection for 48 hours at MOI 50 is optimal for transfecting dental pulp stem cel s with green fluorescent protein by a lentiviral vector, thereby providing reliable tracer method for the study of rat dental pulp stem cel s in vivo.
