Aim To investigate roles of ROS in oxaliplatin-induced PUMA expression and apoptosis in colon cancer cells.Methods ROS was used as an oxidative stress in vitro and PUMA expression was determined by Western blot analysis,the apoptosis induced by ROS was assessed by Hoechst 33258 dye staining,the proliferation of the colon cancer cells treated with oxaliplatin and antioxidant was determined by MTT assay.Results ROS induced apoptosis and PUMA expression in colon cancer cells;suppression of PUMA expression by stable transfecting PUMA anti-sense vector decreased apoptosis induced by ROS;oxaliplatin-induced PUMA expression was abrogated by antioxidant and the proliferation of colon cancer cells treated with oxalipla-tin was increased by antioxidant.Conclusions Our data suggests that PUMA and ROS play important roles in oxaliplatin-induced apoptosis.Oxaliplatin induces PUMA expression and apoptosis partly through ROS in colon cancer cells.

Objective To retrospectively review the experience of esophageal manometry and 24-hour pH monitoring in esophagus surgery. Methods From 1982 to 2010, patients with unspecific chest pain and undergone esophageal surgery were received esophageal manometry and 24-hour pH monitoring. Results Among the patients with unspecific chest pain, 70.4%(74/105) were diagnosed as esophageal origin. Lower esophageal sphincter pressure (LESP) can be continuously maintained by using 360° fundoplication. Only a minority of patients who underwent transabdominal esophagocardiomyotomy and partial posterior fundoplication had acid reflux postoperatively. Incidence rate of achalasia of upper esophageal sphincter (UES) and pharyngeal "shoulder wave" in side-to-side stapled anastomosis is significantly lower than in traditional hand-sewn anastomosis,as well as contractive pressure in anastomosis region and occurrence of swallow discomfortableness. There is a high pressure region at the esophageal entrance in patients with bilateral platysma muscle flap for cervical esophagus defect following removal of hypopharynx cancer. And the pressure of the region is significantly lower than in healthy controls. Basal pyloric pressure and peak pressure of pylorus in phase Ⅲ of the migrating motor complex increased significantly after gastric conduit was made and anastomosed, but decreased appreciably following pyloric digital fracture. Peak pressure, frequency and duration time of isolated pyloric pressure wave ( IPPW ) decreased after pyloric digital fracture significantly. Conclusion Esophageal manometry and 24-hour pH monitoring are important tools for and diagnosing unspecific chest pain and evaluating the outcome of new surgical procedures.

Objective To investigate the mechanisms of estrogen in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE),we compared the effects of 17β-estradiol(E2)on bone marrow(BM)-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs)in(NZBxNZW)F1(NZB/w F1)female mice befbre and after the disease onset.Methods Immature,BMDCs were differentiated from BM monocytes cultured with rmGM-CSF,rmlL-4,E2 and estrogen receptor (ER)modulator-tamoxifen(TAM)for 7 days.Then immature DCs were stimulated by LPS for 24h to get mature BMDCs.Flow cytometry was utilized to detect the production of costimulatory molecule CD40 and intracellular IL-6,IL-10,IL-12 and TNFα of DCs.Mixed lymphocytes reaction was used to measure the stim-ulatory activity of DCs on spleen T lymphocytes.Results E2 mainly increased the expression of CD40 on im-mature BMDCs but reduced its expression on mature BMDCs.E2 enhanced the stimulatory activity of immature BMDCs,but weakened the activity of mature BMDCs.E2 decreased the production of cytokines of BMDCs in young mice,but increased them in old mice.Conclusion E2 modulates the functions of BMDCs of lupus model mice by binding with ER.The modulation varies depending on disease progression and cell maturation status.

Objective To investigate the effect of estrogen on dendritic cells (DCs) and its role in disease progression by comparing the effects of 17β-estradiol (E2) on spleen DCs in systemic lupus erythe matosus (SLE) murine modeI-(NZBxNZW) F1 (NZB/w F1 ) female mice before and after the disease onset.Methods Anti-CD11c antibody labeled magnetic bead was used to purify spleen DCs.Flow cytometry was utilized to detect the co-stimulatory molecules and intracellular cytokines of DCs.Mixed lymphocytes reaction (MLR) was used to measure the stimulatory activity of DCs to T iymphocytes.And semi-quantitative RT-PCR was employed to check the expression of estrogen receptor (ER).Results E2 could modulate the expression of surface molecule CD40,the production of cytokines IL-6,IL-10,IL-12 and TNFa,and the stimulatory a bility of spleen DCs in SLE model mice.Tamoxifen (TAM) could antagonize E2 effects and E2 could affect the estrogen receptor (ERα) level of DCs.These changes of DCs varied with age.Conclusion E2 may be in volved in the pathogenesis of SLE by modulating DCs by binding ERa.The effects of E2 vary in different stages of SLE progression.

Radiotherapy plays a crucial role in cervical cancer.Intensity modulated radiation therapy is widely used gradually,which allows the photon beam within each field to be modulated and therefore improves the dose distribution by maximizing target coverage and minimizing the damage to normal tissue.Concurrent radiochemotherapy plus brachytherapy are standard therapeutic methods for local advanced cervical cancer.

100% elevation of PKC activity in the retina, and administration of D ? tocopherol prevented the elevation of PKC activity and diabetes induced decrease of both Na + K + ATPase and Ca 2+ ATPase activities. D ? tocopherol achieved a complete prevention of augmented pericyte and endothelial cell profile areas and basement membrane thickening in the superficial and deep capillaries bed of diabetic retina but had no effect on blood glucose and HbA 1c . Conclusion Diabetes induced histopathological abnormalities are mostly mediated by PKC. D ? tocopherol reduces the ultrastructural lesions in retinal capillary bed induced by hyperglycemia.

[Objective]To study the therapeutic effect of recombinant erythropoietin for contusion injury of spinal cord.[Method]Contusion injury of spinal cord was caused by weight dropping in 24 New Zealand rabbits.Twelve hours after injury,the rabbits in control group were given natural saline intravenously and rabbits in low,mediate and large-dose group were given rh-EPO 100 IU/kg,500 IU/kg and 1000 IU/kg respectively.Neurological status of lower limbs were scored at 24 hours,48 hours and one week after spinal cord injury.All rabbits were killed one week after injury and spinal cords were stained by HE and caspase-3 method.Electronic microscopy was used to evaluate ultrastructural injury.[Result]The neurological scores of EPO treated groups were significantly higher than that of control group.HE and Caspase-3 immunohistochemistry showed that histological and ultrastructural damage of EPO treated groups were less severe than that of control group.The caspase-3 positive neurons were significantly fewer than that of saline treated group.There was no significant difference of therapeutic effect between mediate and large-dose EPO treated groups.[Conclusion]Rh-EPO administered 12 hours after contusion injury of spinal cord could lessen histological and ultrastructural damage,prevent apoptosis of neurons and promote neurological recovery of spinal cord.Mediate dose of rh-EPO is the appropriate treatment choice for spinal cord injury.
