Hedgehog(HH),a vital endodermal signal,plays a critical role in the embryonic development of the GI system.During mammalian embryonic development,deficiency of HH signaling leads to gastrointestinal malformations.Nevertheless,normal presence of HH family is also found in the adult gut,and HH signaling now may be important for homeostasis of the gut in such a case.However,many researches revealed that the HH signal's involved in gastrointestinal carcinogenesis and its role is altered in various tumors due to various mechanisms.This review focused on the progress of HH signal pathway in gastrointestinal tumors.

It is rare that large mixed tumors of salivary gland located in the nose and uvula. The patient who had mixed tumors of salivary gland at nose found exophytic growth tumor for half a year. The other patient who had mixed tumors of salivary gland at uvula felt swallowing foreign body sensation for one year, and dysphagia for one month. After surgical resection, the symptoms disappear.

Objective: To analyze the application value of radionuclide myocardial perfusion imaging in the localization and diagnosis for stable angina pectoris in clinical practice. Methods: A total of 70 patients who had been diagnosed with stable angina pectoris (SAP) were enrolled, and all patients underwent ATP-loaded ATP-99Tcm-MIBI (99Tcm-MIBI) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) and coronary angiography (CAG) were used to compare the accuracy of MPI imaging in localization and diagnosis for SAP. Results:In the 70 cases of patients with two methods of examination: ①In MPI diagnosis, positive patients were 50 cases, and the positive predictive value of SAP, sensitivity, negative predictive value and specificity were, respectively, 92.0%, 90.2%, 75.0% and 78.9%. There were 45 patients were consistently diagnosed as SAP by the two methods and the total compliance rate was 90.0%. ②in 70 patients, 51 cases were diagnosed as SAP by CAG examination, the positive rate was 72.9%; ③in 50 MPI positive patients, 46 patients were consistent with the results of CAG diagnosis, and the positive rate was 92.0%. The difference between the two methods was statistically significant (x2= 5.72, P<0.05). Conclusion: 99Tcm-MIBI myocardial perfusion imaging can be used as a gatekeeper in patients with stable angina pectoris, and has high application value in the location and diagnosis for stable angina pectoris. The diagnosis and treatment links of stable angina pectoris can save costs and provide a reliable evidencet for clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the protective effects of trigonelline in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes during hypoxia /reoxygenation and its mechanism .Methods The neonatal rat cardiomyocytes was randomly divided into the normal control group , the hypoxia/reoxygenation group and the trigonelline group .Flow cytometry was used to determine the apoptosis and mitochondrial membrane potential .The levels of SOD and MDA were measured in different groups .Western blot method was used to measure the procaspase‐9 ,cleaved caspase‐9 ,procaspase‐3 and cleaved caspase‐3 protein level .Results Trigonelline could inhibit apoptosis (P<0 .05) ,enhanced activity of SOD (P<0 .05) ,reduce production of MDA (P<0 .05) ,stabilize the mitochondrial membrane potential (P<0 .05) and activate caspase‐9 and caspase‐3 in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes during hypoxia/reoxygenation .Conclusion Trigo‐nelline could protect myocardial cells from injury caused by hypoxia and reoxygenation ,and the mechanism may be associated with anti‐lipid peroxidation and stabilizing mitochondria membrane potential .

Objective To evaluate the laparoscopic hysterectomy surgery continuous infusion of low-dose sufentanil combined with propofol and remifentanil anesthesia postoperative hyperalgesia influence.Methods Patients were collected from June 2013 to June 2015 in our hospital undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy 60 cases.According to the principles of randomized, divided into sufentanil group (SF group) and 30 cases of normal saline group (NS group) 30 cases.Two intraoperative remifentanil 0.1-0.2 μg/(kg? min) and propofol 4-8 mg/(kg? h) to maintain anesthesia.After the operation began, SF group and NS group were sufentanil and saline.Record calls eyes, recovery of spontaneous breathing, extubation time;after waking 5 min, 30 min, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h pain (visual analogue scales, VAS) score; before induction (T0), after induction (T1), after intubation (T2), surgery (T3), extubation (T4), after extubation 10 min (T5) heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP); excessive sedation, respiratory depression, intraoperative awareness, restless when awake, intraoperative after nausea/vomiting, tramadol and so on.Results SF group and NS group recovery of spontaneous breathing, eye opening and extubation call time was not statistically significant;after SF group wake 5 min, 30 min and 4 h VAS scores lower than the NS group (P <0.05); in T4, T5 point comparison, SF group MAP and HR lower than the NS group (P <0.05); SF group restless when awake, pain (VAS score≥3), postoperative use of tramadol was lower than NS group (P<0.05).Conclusion Intraoperative continuous infusion of low-dose sufentanil improve laparoscopic hysterectomy in patients under anesthesia using propofol combined with remifentanil hyperalgesia, with good prospects for clinical application of anesthesia.

Objective To develop a superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)-based MR probe containing vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) to investigate their biological and chemical properties and targeting effect of colorectal cancer cells in vitro. Methods The anti-VEGF-SPIO probe was fabricated with VEGF antibody and SPIO through chemical method. Its biological and chemical properties and reflexivity were tested with SDS-PAGE and MRL The SW620 cells incubated with anti-VEGF-SPIO probe for 30, 60 and 90 minutes respectively and compared with marrow mesenchymal stem cell at 37℃. The comparison among groups was conducted by using analysis of variance and LSD-t test. The MRI results were confirmed by the Prussian blue staining. The comparison among groups was performed by analysis of variance and factorial experiment. Results SPIO-based MR probe containing VEGF was successfully contributed and isolated. The reflexivity of anti-VEGF-SPIO probe was 0.0426×10~6 mol/s. The immunofluorescence and prussia blue stain proved high expression of VEGF in SW620 cells. Anti-VEGF-SPIO probe and SW620 cellscombined at 37℃ in vitro MRI proved the SW620 cells incubated with anti-VEGF-SPIO probe appeared hypointense on T_2WI and T_2~* WI. MR signal were 392±7,91±8,264±10 for 30, 60 and 90 minutes respectively, which were statistically different from that before incubation 679±12 (F=4735.489, P< 0.01). The intensity decreased most significantly at 60 minutes in vitro. Its MR signal 82±7 were statistically different compared with marrow mesenchymal stem cell 689±43, t=39.167,P<0.05). While SW620 cells incubated without SPIO were not statistically different compared with marrow mesenchymal stem cell, which were 419±59 and 400±41 respectively(t=-0.718,P>0.05). Conclusion Nanoscale iron particles containing the anti-vascular endothelial growth factor molecular probe can evaluate tumor angiogenesis at the receptor level, which provides a new way of the tumor angiogenesis diagnosis and anti-angiogenesis therapy.
