Purpose:To identify clinical predictors of stage ⅢA-N2 in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. Methods:From March 1995 to February 1998, 118 patients with pathological stage ⅢA-N2 non-small cell lung cancer who underwent a resection by Shanghai Chest Hospital were analysed. Prognostic factors were estimated from the date of operation using the Kaplan-Meier and log-rank analysis. The Cox regression model evaluated the influence of factors on the survival. Results:The overall of 3-year and 5-year survivals of the 118 patients were 40.5% and 18.4%. Margin, the number of N2 lymph nodes and stations, the cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy were associated with survival. In a multivariate analysis, the number of N2 lymph nodes and the cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy significantly influenced survival. Conclusions:The number of N2 lymph nodes and the cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy were important prognostic factors of stage ⅢA-N2 non-small cell lung cancer.

0.05).The ultramicrostructure of cells detected by electron microscope showed that GJIC function in transfected group was higher than that in the other two groups.While in migration assay,the numbers of cells in lower chamber passing through the membrane in transfected group,blank control group and negative control group were 112?23,306?49 and 322?91, respectively;with significant differences among 3 groups(P

Objective To investigate the activity of recombinant Vibrio vulnificus hemolysin (rVvhA) on the apoptosis of J774A.1 cells and the related mechanism. Methods The cytotoxic effect of rVvhA on the growth of J774A.1 cells was identified by MTT, celluar and mitochondrial morphology were observed by transmission electron microscopy, apoptosis or necrosis and mitochondrial membrane potential in J774A.1 cells were measured by flow cytometry, activities of caspase-3 ,-8,-9 were detected by spectrophotometry. Results The viability of J774A.1 cells exposed to rVvhA was inhibited, and it is dependent on dose. Celluar and mitochondrial uhrastructure both occurred to change obviously observed by transmission electron microscopy in J774A.1 treated by 2.0 HU/ml and 3.0 HU/ml rVvhA after 8 hours; and 3.0 HU/ml rVvhA group had a better cytotoxic effect on J774A.1 than that of 3.0 HU/ml rVvhA group. The percentage of apoptosis is (7.80±0.62)%, (12.33±0.12)%, respectively. Besides, the mitochondriai membrane potential also reduced, because the rate of fluorescence which is green increase 1.0% (normal) to 9.8% (2.0 HU/ml rVvhA) and 39.2% (3.0 HU/ml rVvhA). At the same time, the caspase-3, -9 activity increased gradually, but caspase-8 remained unchanging. In J774A.1 cells treated by 3.0 HU/ml rV-vhA + caspase-3 inhibitor(Ac-DEVD-FMK) or caspase-9 inhibitor(Ac-LEHD-FMK), The apoptosis of was reduced to(6.23±3.95)% ,(9.60±3.14)%, and the activity of caspase-3, -9 reduced, too. Conclusion The rVvhA has cytotoxic effect on J774A.1. Mitochondria-mediated apoptosis pathway which is dependent on caspase may be related to apoptosis induced by rVvhA in J774A.1.

Pseudomonas sp. TS1138 isolated from soil samples was able to form L-cysteine from DL-2-Amino-△2-Thia-zoline-4-Carboxylic Acid (DL-ATC) after cultured 16 hours . The optimum carbon and nitrogen soruces of strain growth and enzyme formation are glucose and urea. This enzyme was induced by DL-ATC. The product was identified to be L-Cysteine based on thin layer chromatography, optical rotation and HPLC studies.

The L-ATC hydrolase and L-SCC amidohydrolase which convert L-ATC to L-cysteine in Pseudomonas sp.TS-1138 are purified about 83.9 and 90.3 fold by salting-out method, Sephadex G-75 gel chromatography, DEAE-cellulose 52 ion exchange and Sephadex G-100 gel chromatography, etc. The purified enzyemes are both demonstrated by SDS-PAGE to be a homogeneous protein. Their molecular weight are about 37.5kD and42.8kDa respectively. The optimum reaction temperature are both 35℃, and the optimum pH are 7.0 and 8.0 respectively. The Km of the two enzymes are 0.67 mmol/L and 0.15 mmol/L, and the Vmax are 0.39?10 -3mmol/L?min and 0.42?10 -3mmol/L?min respectively.

The L-cysteine desulfhydrase gene (cd) of Pseudomonas sp.TS1138 was amplified by PCR,and the amplified gene was recombined in the cloning vector pBluescript SKII.The 1.2kb DNA fragment containing cd was sequenced,and its homology with other desulfhydrases was blast; then the cd was cloned into the expression vector pET-21a(+), and afterward expressed by IPTG inducement.The expression protein was purified by Ni-NTA His-Bind Resin.Then the expression protein was identified by the method of activity staining of desulfhydrase, and the characterization of L-cysteine desulfhydrase and the critical role it played in the L-cysteine biosynthetic pathway were discussed.

Objective To establish an high perfermance liquid chromatography method for determination of five indole alkaloids in Rauvolfia.Methods The Diamonsil C18 column was used at 25 ℃ with methanol-water (gradient elution) as the mobile phase,the flow rate was 1.0 mL·min-1,the detective wavelength was 280 nm,and the injection volume was 5 μL.Results In the range of 1.56-200 μg· mL-1,the correlation coefficients of regression equations of sarpagine,yohimbine,ajmaline,ajmalicine,reserpine were higher than 0.999 0.The average recovery (n =9) of five indole alkaloids was between 95.0％-105.0％.Conclusion This method is simple with good accuracy and repeatability.It can be used for quality control of Rauvolfia.

Objective To study the diagnostic value of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS)for benign and malignant bile duct stricture.Methods Data of 51 patients who underwent EUS from January 2007 to March 2015 due to distal biliary stricture were retrospectively studied.And their diagnosis with EUS,IDUS,bile duct cytological brushing and final diagnosis were compared.Results Malignant bile duct stenosis were finally confirmed in 19 cases and benign stenosis were confirmed in 32 cases.The sensitivity (73.7％ VS 57.1％) and positive predictive value (73.7％ VS 57.1％) of EUS for the benign and malignant diagnosis of biliary tract stenosis were significantly higher than that of IDUS (P＜0.05),while their specificity(84.4％ VS 84.2％)and accuracy(80.4％ VS 76.9％)were similar.The sensitivity of EUS was significantly higher than that of bile duct cytological brushing (73.7％ VS 50.0％),while their specificity (84.4％ VS 100.0％)and accuracy(80.4％ VS 81.6％)were similar.EUS findings of hypoechoic mass features had higher diagnostic accuracy for detecting malignant distal bile duct stricture than irregular thickening of the lumen in the distal bile duct (100.0％ VS 64.3％,P＜0.05).Conclusion For patients with lesions of the distal bile duct that CT/MRI could not diagnose,EUS has an important value for the further diagnosis of benign and malignant bile duct stricture.

Objective:To evaluate the outcomes of lesser arc perilunate injuries (Perilunate disloca-tions)treated with arthroscopically assisted mini-invasive reduction and fixation.Methods:Between 2012 and 2014,5 patients who had a perilunate dislocation were treated with arthroscopically assisted re-duction and percutaneous fixation.The mean follow-up was 17.8 months (range,10 to 32 months). Clinical outcomes were evaluated on the basis of range of motion;grip strength;Mayo wrist score;Quick disabilities of the arm,shoulder and hand questionnaire;and patient-rated wrist evaluation score.Radio-graphic evaluations included carpal alignments and any development of arthritis.Results:The range of flexion-extension motion of injured wrist averaged 84% of the values for contralateral wrist.The grip strength of the injured wrist averaged 90% of the values for the contralateral wrists.The mean Quick Disabilities of the arm,shoulder and hand score was 1 ,and the mean Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation score was 5 .According to the Mayo wrist scores,the overall functional outcomes were rated as excellent in all the patients.Reduction obtained during the operation was maintained within normal ranges in all the patients.Arthritis had not developed in any patient at the end of the follow-up.Conclusion:Arthroscopic mini-invasive reduction with percutaneous fixation is a reliable and favorable alternative in the treatment of perilunate dislocations according to our early results.
