Objective To study the expression and relationship of osteopontin (OPN) and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in epithe-lial ovarian carcinoma. Methods Immunohistochemical staining S-P methods was used to detect the expression of OPN and MMP-9 in the samples of 60 epithelial ovarian carcinoma,20 benign ovarian tumor,20 borderline ovarian tumor and 10 normal ovarian tissue. Results The expression level of OPN and MMP-9 in epithelial ovarian carcinoma(109.86±21.51) were significantly higher than those in borderline ovarian tumor(45.81±8.93),benign ovarian tumor(11.86±3.01) and normal ovarian tissue(5.32±2.74). The expression level of OPN and MMP-9 related to the tumor grading,tumor stage and lymph node metastasis,while had no relationship with histological grading. There was significant positive correlation between OPN and MMP-9 in epithelial ovarian carcinoma (r = 0.80,P < 0.05). Conclusion The increased expression of OPN and MMP-9 may play an important role in the process of carcinogenesis, progression and differentiation of epithelial ovari-an carcinoma. OPN and MMP-9 may be a useful targets for treatment of ovarian carcinoma.

Psoriasis is a non-infectious chronic inflammatory skin disease. It′s acknowledged that interleukin (IL)-17 signaling pathway dominantly drives the development of psoriasis. Recently, the role of neuro-immune axis in psoriasis has attracted widespread attention. Lidocaine, a local anesthetic, has ability to block the conduction of nerve impulses, while its therapeutic efficacy on psoriasis remains to be confirmed. Here, we evaluated the therapeutic efficacy of topical application of compound lidocaine cream (LIDO) on imiquimod (IMQ)-induced mouse psoriasis model. Animal welfare and experimental procedures follow the regulations of the Ethics Committee of China Pharmaceutical University. The psoriasis area and severity index (PASI) scoring was used to evaluate the severity of psoriasis-like symptoms. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to examine histopathological changes and epidermal thickness was measured. Ki67 immunofluorescence staining was used to evaluate the proliferation of keratinocytes. The relative mRNA expression of inflammatory cytokines (including

The tuberous roots of Aconitum carmichaeli are largely used in traditional Chinese medicine and widely grown in Jiangyou, Sichuan, China. During the growth process, this medicinal plant releases a large amount of allelochemicals into soil, which retard the growth and development of near and late crops. Therefore, a pure culture experiment was thus carried out by seed soaking to study the allelopathic effects of extracts from tuberous roots of A. carmichaeli (ETR) on the seed germination and young seedling growth of Lolium perenne, Trifolium repens, and Medicago sativa, the late pasture grasses after cultivation of A. carmichaeli. The results showed that three pasture grasses varied significantly in seed germination and young seedling growth in response to ETR concentrations. Seed germination of M. sativa was stimulated by low ERT concentration (0.01 x g(-1)), while all of pasture grass seeds germinated poorly in solution with 1.00 g x L(-1). Seed soaking with 1.00 g x L(-1) also inhibited significantly the growth of pasture young seedlings, with M. sativa showing the highest seedling height reduction of 42.05% in seeding height, followed by T. repens (40.21%) and L. perenne with about 11%. Cultivation of L. perenne could thus be beneficial to increase whole land productivity in A. carmichaeli-pasture grass cropping systems. In addition, hydrolysis of protein, starch, and inositol phosphates was blocked and free amino acids, soluble sugars and phosphorus were decreased in seeds by seed soaking with ETR, which could be one of the reason for the inhibition of seed germination. There was a significant reduction in root vigor, nitrate reductase, and chlorophyll after the seed treatment with ETR, indicating the suppression of nutrient uptake, nitrate assimilation, and photosynthesis by allelopathic chemicals in ETR, which could lead to the slow growth rate of pasture grass seedlings.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) and conventional-transbronchial needle aspiration (C-TBNA) in mediastinal and lung hilar lesions. Method 301 cases of lung hilar and mediastinal lesions were selected from 2010 to 2016. Among them, 183 cases underwent TBNA, and the other 118 cases received EBUS-TBNA technology. During the research, the associations of diagnostic positive rate and complications were analyzed in order to explore the advantage and the value of EBUS-TBNA. Results The positive rates of EBUS-TBNA in central groups (2R, 4L, 4R, 7) were higher than in the peripheral groups (10R, 10L, 11R, 11L) (P < 0.05). When studying the lymph node group 2R, 4R and 7R, the positive rate of EBUS-TBNA is much more significant than conventional TBNA (P < 0.05); When biopsying at the lymph node group R4 and group 7, one needle positive rate of EBUS-TBNA were much more superior than TBNA (P < 0.05), the three needles cumulative positive rate of EBUS-TBNA almost reach the total positive rate(P > 0.05), an approving effect of puncture can be acquired; The accuracy and sensitivity of EBUS-TBNA in the diagnosis of lung hilar and mediastinal lesions were much better than conventional TBNA (P < 0.05), especially the diagnostic positive rate of EBUS-TBNA in benign diseases was higher (P < 0.05); The complications rates in both two technologies were not significantly different (P > 0.05), there were no severe complications during the operations in all cases. Conclusion EBUS-TBNA is useful in diagnosis of mediastinal and hilar lesions of unknown reason, and significant in diagnosis of bronchial and extrabronchial diseases. It is an efficiency and safe operation while further application studies are needed.

BACKGROUND:As the potent, specific immunosuppressants emerge, the survival rate after intestinal transplantation is improved to some extent. However, the adverse effects of immunosuppressants and expensive treatment costs are not tolerable for many patients. Therefore, it is clinical y meaningful to choose traditional Chinese medicine which presents immunosuppressive effects. Artesunate has immune suppression effect, reduces acute rejection fol owing smal intestine transplantation, and improves the success rate of smal intestine transplantation.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect and action mechanism of artesunate in acute rejection after smal intestine transplantation in rats.
METHODS:Al ogeneic smal intestine transplantation models were established in the closed group of
Sprague-Dawley rats and Wistar rats, and then were randomly divided into three groups, syngenic transplantation group (SD→SD), al ogeneic transplantation group (Wistar→SD), and artesunate treatment group (Wistar→SD+artesunate 60 mg/kg per day, intraperitoneal injection).
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Rats in syngenic transplantation group survived for more than 10 days and they were al kil ed on day 10. The average survival of rats in al ogeneic transplantation group and artesunate treatment group was respectively (6.73±0.58) days and (8.50±0.74) days, with significant differences between the two groups (P<0.01). Histopathological examination showed that, there was no apparent rejection in syngenic transplantation group specimens, but mild, moderate and severe rejections in al ogeneic transplantation group on days 3, 5, 7. In treatment group, some specimens had mild rejection, but appeared relatively late to a low degree. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay results revealed that, serum interleukin-2 and interferon-gamma expression levels in al ogeneic transplantation group were significantly higher than other two groups after surgery (P<0.01), serum interleukin-2 gene expression level in treatment group was also higher than syngenic transplantation group, but there was no significant difference (P>0.05), serum interferon-gamma expression level in treatment group was higher than syngenic transplantation group (P<0.05). Artesunate can inhibit acute rejection after rat smal intestine transplantation, and its mechanism may be related to inhibition effect on the secretion and expression of interleukin-2, interferon-gamma and other cytokines.
