Purpose:To investigate effect on bcl-2 and bax expression in apoptic PGCl_(3) cells and to study the mechanism of apoptosis of PGCl_(3) cells induced by death associated protein kinase(DAPK).Methods:Eukaryotic express vector pcDNA3.1-DAPK was tranfected into High-metastasis Non-small Lung Cancer Cell PGCl_(3).Changes of bcl2 and bax expression were detected with RT-PCR.Phospharation of Bcl-2 was examined with Westernblotting.Results:It was demonstrated that bcl-2 expression was down regulated,but bax expression did not change in apoptosis of PGCl_(3) cells induced by DAPK.Level of Phospharation of Bcl-2 increased.Conclusions:Apoptosis of PGCl_(3) cells induced by over-expression of DAPK may be associated with down regulating of bcl-2 expressio and increase of phospharation of Bcl-2.

AIM: To study the relationship between the activity of phospholipase A 2 (PLA 2) and pulmonary structural remodeling with the model of chronic isobaric hypoxic pulmonary hypertension. METHODS: 29 healthy Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into normal control group, chronic hypoxic group and hypoxia plus Polidatin (PD) group. By diameter, the arteries were divided into two groups: arteries of group I (30 ?m-100 ?m) and group II (101 ?m-200 ?m). The mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) was measured by inserting a microcatheter into the pulmonary artery. The PLA 2 activity was measured with modified microtitrimetic method. The pulmonary tissue and arterioles morphology changes were examined under light microscope. RESULTS: It was found that after 21 days hypoxia, the mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP), the PLA 2 activity in blood and lung homogenate increased significantly. The media thickness of group I arteries increased (P

Objective To detect and analyze the levels of preoperative serum carcino-embryonic antigen (CEA) and CA15-3 in early invasive breast cancer patients and their correlation with pathological parameters. Methods Electrochemical luminescence immunoassay (ECLI) technology was used to detect serum levels of CEA and CA15-3 in 223 cases of early invasive breast cancer patients, 109 patients with benign lesions, and 30 cases of heath control. Immunohistochemical (IHC) and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) were used to detect the estrogen receptors (ER), progesterone recepter (PR), and its HER-2 pathological indicators.Besides, the correlation of serum CA15-3, CEA levels and pathological parameters was analyzed. Results The serum CA15-3 and CEA levels of Breast cancer patients [(22.27±15.11) U/ml, (5.03± 0.49) μg/L] were significantly higher than that of patients in benign lesion group [(14.13±3.04) U/ml, (2.72± 0.11) μg/L] (P< 0.05). CEA level of patients with histological grade Ⅲ was (6.34 ±0.93) μg/L, significantly higher than the level Ⅰ-Ⅱ (4.23±0.50) μg/L (P< 0.05). CA15-3 level was (19.26±15.08) U/ml in T1 tumors, and CA15-3 level was (28.73 ±11.53) U/ml in T2 tumors (P<0.05). The serum levels of CEA and CA15-3 between different histology, pathologic stage, lymph node status, ER, PR, HER-2, pathological characteristics had no significant difference (P>0.05). CEA positive rate of breast cancer group was significantly higher than that of benign lesions(13.5%vs. 3.7%, 26.5%vs. 1.8%, P<0.05). 30 cases of normal control group had no positive one. The joint monitoring sensitivity of CEA and CA15-3 breast cancer group was 9.4 %, the sensitivity was 0 in benign lesion group. There was significant difference (P < 0.05). Conclusion The changes of Serum CA15-3 and CEA levels in breast cancer patients can be considered as the judgment standard for early diagnosis, pathological staging, prognosis and clinical effect monitoring.

Researching on a large relevant literature of spinal tuberculosis, this paper discussed characteristics of spinal tuberculosis and its early diagnosis method. If spinal tuberculosis can be found and treated earlier, prognosis will be better. The early diagnosis of spinal tuberculosis has become hot spot at present. There are many different diagnostic methods including clinical manifestation, laboratory examination, imaging examination, etc. The newest standpoint showed that immunization has closely correlation with tuberculosis and it will become the focus and developmental direction of future research in spinal tuberculosis. In addition, we should know the differential diagnosis of spinal tuberculosis to avoid the misdiagnosis.

Objective To identify a aldehyde dehydrogenases positive (ALDH+) cancer stem cell subpopulation in MCF-7 cells and to investigate the proliferation and differentiation characteristics of these cells in vitro.Methods ALDH+ breast cancer stem cells were isolated from MCF-7 cells by flow cytometry and the biological property of ALDH+ breast cancer stem cells were examined by scarification test,MTT,growth curvature and Transwell migration assay.Results The ratio of CD-/low24 CD+44 cells was about 1.4 ％ in MCF-7 cells.The ratio of ALDH+ CD-/low24CD+44 cells was about 1.2 ％.The growth curvature of ALDH+ breast cancer stem cells was almost the same with that of CD-/low24 CD+44 cells.The distance between cells was obviously shorter in both CD-/low24 CD+44 cells scarification zone and ALDH+ CD-/low24 CD+44 cells scarification zone.The migration ability of CD-/low24CD+44 cells and ALDH+ CD-/low24CD+44 cells was stronger than control group cells.There were migration ability differences between CD-/low24CD+44 cells and ALDH+ CD-/low24CD+44 cells.The results of Transwell experiments were in coincidence with above results.Lots of CD-/low24CD+44 cells and ALDH+ CD-/low24CD+44 cells were through the membrane.In MTT assay,absorbance values were 1.05±0.098,1.56±0.075 and 1.67±0.032.Conclusion CD--/low24CD+44 and ALDH+ CD-/low24CD+44 breast cancer stem cell subpopulation exist in MCF-7 cells.ALDH could potentially be used as a molecular marker to identify breast cancer stem cell subpopulation.

Objective Inflammation plays a critical role in the presence , development and maintenance of atrial fibrillation ( AF) , but it remains unclear what factors induce inflammation in AF patients , especially in those with valvular heart disease ( VHD) . The aim of this paper was to investigate the role of the shedding of Syndecan -4 in left atrial inflammation in patients with valvular atrial fibrillation. Methods Sixty VHD patients scheduled for valvuloplasty or valve replacement surgery were divided into three groups of equal number:sinus rhythm (SR), paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PaAF), and persistent atrial fibrillation (PeAF).Another 10 pa-tients with congenital heart disease but no valve damage and atrial fibrillation were included in a control group .Baseline clinical data were recorded and tissues were obtained from the left atrial appendage during operation .The expressions of iNOS , HMGB1, and Syn-decan-4 in the left atrium were detected by Western blot , and the pathological changes of the left atrial tissue observed by HE staining . Results Western blot analysis was performed to detect expression levels of proteins .The iNOS level was significantly higher in pa-tients from the paroxysmal AF group (1.61 ±0.10) and persistent AF group (1.67 ±0.08) than those from sinus group (1.06 ± 0.11) and control group (1.02 ±0.12), as was the protein level of HMGB1 (0.63 ±0.05, 0.95 ±0.10, 0.45 ±0.07 and 0.46 ± 0.06 in paroxysmal AF group, persistent AF group, sinus group and controlgroup respectively ).Inflammatory cell infiltration in-creased, while syndecan 4 was down-regulated in AF groups.All these comparisons were significant (P<0.05). Conclusion The decreased expression of Syndecan-4 and enhanced inflammatory response in the left atrial tissue indicate that the shedding of Synde-can-4 may play a role in the presence and development of inflamma-tion in the left atrium .

OBJECTIVE: To know about the application of proton pump inhibitors (PPI)in different diseases and provide the essential references for the use of PPI, clinical practice guidelines for PPI in China were sort out and analyzed. METHODS: The clinical practice guidelines of PPI were searched and sort out according to the categories, levels of evidence of effectiveness and safety, strength of recommendations of guidelines, and so on. RESULTS: Seventeen clinical practice guidelines, which are related to the prevention and cure in gastrointestinal disease, were included in our researches. Except five guidelines, the rest of them were not evidence-based clinical guidelines. CONCLUSION: The recommendations of the clinical practice guideline for PPI are not just very clear, which lead to disorder of PPI clinical medication, the urgent need is to develop relevant provisions to further regulate the PPI medication.
