Anastomotic leakage was one of the severe complications after anterior resection of rectal cancer.Its occurrenc was correlated with age,weight and nutrtion,basic diseases,preoperative radio-chemotherapy,surgical technique and stage of the tumor.Anastomotic leakage could be diagnosed by symptoms,physical signs,drainagefluid and imaging examinations.Most of the anastomotic leakage could be cured non-operatively.Much attention should be pay on the prevention of anastomotic leakage,protective stomy should be made in high risk population,while the complications of protective stomy should be pay attention to.

Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) is one of the most important economic crops in the world. Its growth and productivity were affected by environment stresses such as drought, cold and high salinity. Thus, the enhanced stress tolerance in this plant is of great importance. As the dehydration responsive element (DRE) binding protein (DBP) plays an important role in the regulation of plant resistance to environmental stresses and is quite useful for generating transgenic plants tolerant to these stresses, isolation and functional analysis of DBPs in cotton are important to cotton production. In the previous work, a DBP gene from cotton, named as GhDBP1, was isolated and its expression patterns in cotton plants was demonstrated at the transcriptional level. Here, the expression,purification and DNA binding activity of GhDBP1 were reported. The entire coding region of the GhDBP1 gene was inserted into an expression vector, pET28a, and transformed into Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). The fusion protein was successfully expressed under IPTG induction and the purified recombinant protein was obtained by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography. Non-radioactive electrophoretic mobility shift assay revealed that the purified GhDBP1 protein was able to form a specific complex with the previously characterized DRE element. In addition, the computer modeling of the DNA-binding domain of GhDBP1 were performed using SWISS-MODEL software. The main-chain structures and the folding patterns of the DNA-binding domain of GhDBP1 were similar to the known structure of the DNA-binding domain of the Arabidopsis thaliana GCC box-binding protein AtERF1. These results indicate that GhDBP1 is a DRE-binding transcription factor and might use the structure similar to that of AtERF1 to interact with DRE sequence.

Objective To investigate the safety treatment of partially embolizing spleenomegaly in children. Methods Forty two children aged 1-15 with spleenomegaly were treated through staged partial splenic embolization (PSE). The first embolized scope of spleen was 30%-40% with the second being 30%-40% at 1 or 2 months later in order to achieve the goal of getting rid of hypersplenia and improving the splenic function. Results The adverse effects of splenic embolisation were slight with short duration of fever and stomachache and with efficient control of hypersplenia and its correlative basic diseases except one case of splenic abscess.Conclusions Spleenomegaly in Children can be more safely and more efficiently cured through staged PSE.

Aim To investigate the role of phospho-lipase C epsilon 1 ( PLCE1 ) in modulating the apoptot-ic mechanism in esophageal cancer ( Eca ) cells. Methods Eca cell lines, OE33 and CP-C cells were cultured to assess the expression of PLCE1 . siRNA suppress expression of PLCE1 . The expression of PLCE1 and p53 was evaluated by quantitative real time PCR and Western blot. Methylation analyses of p53 were performed by bisulfite conversion of genomic DNA. Apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry. Results OE33 and CP-C cells expressed high levels of PLCE1 . Knockdown of PLCE1 markedly increased the expression and hypomethylation of p53 , and in-creased the frequency of apoptosis. Conclusion PLCE1 suppresses apoptosis of Eca cells via promoting p53 promoter methylation and inhibiting expression of p53 .

Ibuprofen/ethyl-cellulose (EC)-polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) sustained-release composite particles were prepared by using supercritical CO2 anti-solvent technology. With drug loading as the main evaluation index, orthogonal experimental design was used to optimize the preparation process of EC-PVP/ibuprofen composite particles. The experiments such as encapsulation efficiency, particle size distribution, electron microscope analysis, infrared spectrum (IR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and in vitro dissolution were used to analyze the optimal process combination. The orthogonal experimental optimization process conditions were set as follows: crystallization temperature 40 degrees C, crystallization pressure 12 MPa, PVP concentration 4 mgmL(-1), and CO2 velocity 3.5 Lmin(-1). Under the optimal conditions, the drug loading and encapsulation efficiency of ibuprofen/EC-PVP composite particles were 12.14% and 52.21%, and the average particle size of the particles was 27.621 microm. IR and DSC analysis showed that PVP might complex with EC. The experiments of in vitro dissolution showed that ibuprofen/EC-PVP composite particles had good sustained-release effect. Experiment results showed that, ibuprofen/EC-PVP sustained-release composite particles can be prepared by supercritical CO2 anti-solvent technology.

Objective To observe the changes of CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells, Foxp3 mRNA and soluble interlukin 2 receptor (sIL-2R) in the peripheral blood of kidney transplantation recipients and to evaluate their effect on the diagnosis of acute rejection. Methods Forty-two renal transplant recipients and 30 healthy controls were enrolled in this study. CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells proportion, Foxp3 mRNA and sIL-2R of pre-transplantation and those of day 7,14, 28, 56 of post-transplantation were measured by flow cytometer, fluorescent quantization PCR and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), respectively. Biochemistry appliance was used to detect serum creatinine. The diagnosis of acute rejection in transplanted kidney was based on the clinical symptoms, the laboratory examinations, Doppler ultrasound and biopsy. Results (1)At day 7, 14, 28, 56 of post-transplantation, CD4+CD25+ regulatory T ceils proportion, Foxp3 mRNA level in acute rejection group were significantly decreased compared with those in non-acute rejection group. (2) There were significant differences of peripheral blood CD4+CD25+ regulatory Tcells[(9.22±3.53)% vs (6.09±1.99)%, P<0.01], Foxp3 mRNA[(0.82±0.36)×10-3 vs (0.50±0.28)×10-3, P<0.01] and sIL-2R levels [(856.30±108,24) U/ml vs (247.35±11.24) U/ml, P<0.01]between patients of pre-transplantation and healthy control group. (3)Plasma CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells [(16.53±4.14)%] and the expression of Foxp3 mRNA [(4.97±1.94)×10-3] was significantly increased, but sIL-2R level [(463.72±31.23) U/ml] was significantly decreased as the transplanted renal function was restored (all P<0.01). (4) Plasma CD4+CD25+regulatory T cells [(12.18~2.86)%] and the expression of Foxp3 mRNA [(3.15±1.22)×10-3] was significantly decreased (P<0.01), and sIL-2R level [(748.36±115.41) U/ml] was significantly increased (P<0.01) when acute rejection occurred. The above changes had an earlier onset than the change of Scr. (5)The percentage of CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells was positively correlated with the Foxp3 mRNA level (P<0.01), but was not correlated with sIL-2R level in all the patients. Conclusion The measurement of these markers in peripheral blood may be an important guideline to the diagnosis and prognosis of acute rejection in renal transplant recipients.
