Objective:To explore the mRNA expression of macrophage migration inhibitory factor(MIF)in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and its relationship with the clinical pathologic characteristics of that carcinoma.Methods:The expressions of MIF mRNA in esophageal carcinoma tissues and normal esophageal tissues were detected by RT-PCR in eighty patients.Results:MIF mRNA expression rate in esophageal carcinoma was 85%(68/80),while in the normal esophageal tissues it was 15%(15/80).the difference was significant(P0.05).Conclusion:Increased MIFmRNA expression contributed to carcinogenesis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma,which might provide a new way for early diagnosis and therapy of esophageal carcinoma.

Objective　To study the distribution of metastatic cancer sites in liver of different loctions of colorectal carcinoma as a guide for treatment. Methods　According to the blood supply from the superior a and inferior mesenteric arteries we used the splenic flexure as the middle coordinate and divided the large intestine into right and left two halves and then the sites of metastatic cancers were observed carefully. Results　When the venous blood streams from the superior and inferior mesenteric veins entered the portal vein they were not well mixed. This phenomina influenced the distribution of the metastatic lesions: primary cancer in right half of large intestine metastasied to right lobe of liver in 87.9%(58/66) of cases, and left half primary cancers metastasised to both right and left lobes of liver without regular rule. Cancers of sigmoid colon had high rate of liver metastases of 69.3% in total number of colorectal carcinoma with liver metastasis (203/293). Conclusion　The results of this study suggest that besides chemotherapy given through hepatic artery, the portal vein route of administration of chemotherapeutic drugs may be more reasonable and effective.

Objective To investigate the expression of macrophage migration inhibitory factor(MIF) in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC) and in normal tissues around the esophageal cancer and determine whether there exists a relationship between MIF expression and clinicopathologic features.Methods The expression levels of MMIF in 80 ESCC specimens and 80 normal tissues around esophageal cancer by immunohistochemical staining.Results MIF was overexpressed in ESCC specimens and closely correlated with tumor differentiation and TNM staging.In normal esophageal tissues we found a small amount increment of MIF in the malpighian layer of mucous membrane.Conclusion MIF participates in the accommodation of cell growth cycle,plays an important role in the pathogenesis of ESCC and correlates with TNM staging.

The activity of colony stimulating factor ( CSF) in the conditioned medium ( CM ) was studied with combination method of 3H-TdR incorporation assay and agar colony assay. These two assays were demonstrated to be replaceable each other. The mice were administered with nontoxic monophosphoryl lipid A(MPLA) which was derived from a Re mutant of Salmonnella Minnesota Re595. The results showed a significant elevation of CSF in the serum and reaching the top at 12th h and returning to normal by 24th h. There is a significant dose-resoonse relationship. The CSF was induced with accompany of formation of colony inhibiting factor (GIF), some of which were heat sensitive factors. It is suggested that the MPLA may be a potent CSF-inducer.

Objective To compare the stray-light effects caused by different parts of optic edge of 7 intraocular lens(IOL)edge designs.Methods Monochromatic laser beam was used to illuminate the upper edge and complex of three-piece and single-piece IOLs at several angles of incidence.Light images produced in the retinal plane were photographed with a digital camera.The differences in the light images were compared between three-piece and single-piece IOLs.Results There were differences in light images between 2 groups,which may be due to different shapes of edge design when the upper edge of IOL was illuminated.Three-piece IOL exhibited line images or dense patch,which differed with single-piece IOL when the complex of IOL was illuminated.Conclusion Both edge shape and irregular structure in three-piece IOL complex may be important factors for postoperative glare in pseudophakic patients.

Objective To explore the relationship between the Yangtze River floodplain ecological environment(vegetation, soil,water and light intensity)and the distribution of Oncomelania hupensis snails,so as to provide the evidence for ecological snail control. Methods Three regions(the Lu-Gang Bridge,Dragon Nest Lake in the bund,and Dragon Nest lake beach)were selected to investigate the plant characteristics(species,height,coverage,frequency and strain of clusters),soil characteristics (temperature,humidity,light intensity)and pH value. All the results were analyzed statistically with SPSS 18 software. Results A total of 920 boxes were investigated. The vegetation coverage was 3.7%-63.5%,and the dominant population was Cyperusrotun-dus L. cluster on the marshland. The soil temperature was 19.0℃-24.0℃,pH 5.0-5.7,and humidity 53%-75%. There were statis-tical significants in average number of living snails and dead snails among 3 groups( P<0.05). As the light intensity was strong in summer and weak in winter,the snails were in the back surface in summer and front surface in winter respectively. The average number of living snails was the most near the water. The difference was statistical significant(P<0.01)among three ranges(0-1 m,1-3 m and 3-5 m). Conclusion The snail survival and distribution have close relations with micro ecological environment factors,such as vegetation,soil,water and light intensity.

Objective To study the effect and mechanism of the Fosinopril combined with Fenofibrate on the prevent?ing of diabetic retinopathy. Methods A total of 150 viripotent ICR mice(100 male mice, 50 female mice) were randomly di?vided into five groups(n=30), including A group (Sham group), B group (Model group), C group [Fosinopril prevented group, 20 mg/(kg·d)], D group [Fenofibrate prevented group, 400 mg/(kg·d)] and E group (Fosinopril combined with Fenofibrate pre?vented group). The expression levels of Bax and Bcl-2 gene mRNA were determined by RT-PCR method. TUNEL staining method was used to detect the apoptosisi of retinal cells. Results The Bcl-2 mRNA of A group, Bax mRNA of B group were higher than those of other four groups. Bcl-2 mRNA of E group was higher than that of C group and D group, while the Bax mRNA was lower than those of two groups(all P<0.05). The TUNEL index of B group was the highest than other groups, which of E group
