Objective To investigate the effects of soluble CD40 ligand combined with LY294002,a specific inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase,on proliferation and invasion of gastric cancer cells (AGS ) and its potential mechanisms. Methods The effect of gradient concentration of sCD40L and its combination with LY294002 on cellular proliferation was determined using MTT assay. The ability of cellular invasion and migration was evaluated by wound healing and Transwell invasion assay. The protein expression of PI3K, p-Akt and vascular endothelia growth factor (VEGF) was tested by Western blotting. Results The inhibitory effect of cellular proliferation in sCD40L, LY294002 and sCD40L + LY294002 groups was 70. 1%, 65. 7% and 41. 3%, respectively, with significant difference (P<0. 05). And wound healing was also delayed in cells treated with sCD40L plus LY294002 when compared with those treated with sCD40L or LY294002. These results indicated that the inhibitory effect of cellular proliferation, migration and invasion was enhanced when cells were treated with sCD40L plus LY294002. The protein expression of PI3K,p-Akt and VEGF increased in cells treated with sCD40L, but reduced drastically in cells treated with sCD40L plus LY294002. Conclusion Inhibiting PI3K/Akt signaling pathway may enhance the inhibitory effect of proliferation, migration and invasion by sCD40L on AGS cells, which provide a new way for biochemical therapy of gastric cancer.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the peak value of contrast media reaching abdominal aorta andpatients’ factors.Methods Ominpaque 300 mgI/ml 20 ml was injected at a rate of 2.5 ml/s in 108 patients and after 12 s was tracked by test bolus in the abdominal aorta at the level of celiac trunk, then the peak value in the abdominal aorta was achieved by the software dynamic evaluation. Regression analysis and stepwise regression analysis were used to study how the peak value of contrast media reaching abdominal aorta influenced by the patients’ factors including patients’ gender, age, height, weight, heart rate, blood pressure, injection site, peak time, and whether being with heart disease , diabetes mellitus or chemo . Results The peak value of contrast media reaching abdominal aorta was lower in male than that in female averagely, decreased gradually as the patients’ height, weight and peak time increased. The peak value of the injection site in the vein of hand back was lower than that of the cubitus generally and it was not influenced by the patients’ heart rate, blood pressure or whether being with heart disease, diabetes mellitus or chemo. Recommended formula of peak value(HU)=383.8400-Height(cm)?1.0909-Weight(kg)?0.6760+injection site?16.7878-peak time(s)?1.6882.Conclusion The volume of contrast media used in patients needing exam of CT angiography can be adjusted according to the patients’ age, gender, height, weight, injection site and peak time.

Objective To study the effect of combining recombinet interferon α -2b gel and loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) to treat cervical intraepithehal neoplasia (CIN). Methods Prospective, randomly and control study was progressed in 80 patients with CIN Ⅱ-Ⅲ. Before carrying out LEEP, all women were performed high-risk HPV DNA detection by the method of HC2. Among them, forty women were. assigned to be the study group, in which the patients were added to use recombinet interferon α -2b gel for three courses of treatment before and after LEEP, the other forty women who carried out LEEP simply were assigned to be the control group. All patients were examined by hquid-based thinprep cytology test (TCT) and colposcopic site-specific biopsies to doubtful focus of infection in the 3rd, 6th, 9th and 12th month after treatment, and judged the effect by using HC2 in the 6th and 12th month after treatment. Results Eighty patients were not detected residue and recidivafion of CIN diagnosed by coiposcopic site-specific biopsies to doubtful focus of infection. In the study group, 3 women were abnormal detected by TCT, 37 women were negative detected by HC2, the negative rate was 92.5% when LEEP ended 6 months. The cure rate was 100.0% when LEEP ended 12 months. In the control group, 21 women were abnormal detected by TCT, 19 women were negative detected by HC2, the negative rate was 47.5% when LEEP ended 6 months, 8 women were negative detected by TCT, 25 women were negative detected by HC2, the cure rate was 62.5% when LEEP ended 12 months.In the 6th and 12th month after LEEP, the difference was distinguished in the cure rate between two groups. Conclusions There is double interrupted effects by combining recombinets interferon α -2b gel and LEEP to treat CIN. It can raise the one-time cure rate of the patients with CIN.

Objective To investigate the genetic polymorphisms of the glutathione S-transferase M1 and T1 genes(GSTM1 and GSTT1),and eval-uate the oxidative damage in patients with non-small lung cancer(N-SCLC). Methods A total of 110 patients with N-SCLC and 100 healthy indi-viduals were recruited in this case-control study. Multiplex polymerase chain reaction(PCR)analysis was used to identify the genotypes. The activi-ty of malondialdehyde(MDA),nitric oxide(NO),and the total antioxidant capacity(T-AOC)were detected by spectroscopic analysis using assay kits. Results The frequencies of the GSTM1,T1,and GSTM1/T1 null genotypes in the patient group were significantly higher than those in control group(OR1=2.071,P1=0.009;OR2=1.900,P2=0.024;OR3=3.258,P3=0.003). The activity of MDA and NO were obviously higher in the pa-tient group compared with the control group(P<0.001),and T-AOC was obviously lower in patient group than those in control group(P<0.001). The activity of MDA,and NO were higher but the T-AOC were lower in patients with GSTM1,T1 and GSTM1/T1 null genotypes than those in pa-tients with GSTM1,T1 and GSTM1/T1 present genotypes(P<0.001). Conclusion Our results suggest that oxidative damage may play a impor-tant role in patients with N-SCLC,and the N-SCLC patients with GSTM1and GSTT1deletion genotypes are more susceptible to oxidative damage.

Objective The aim of this study is to examine the expressions of Toll like receptor (TLR) 7 and TLR9 in the peripheral blood B lymphocytes of SLE patients and to analyze the correlation between TLR7/9 and clinical parameters. Methods lntracellular expression of TLR7/9 in the peripheral blood CD19+Blymphocytes was analyzed in 50 SLE patients and 30 healthy controls by flow cytometry. The difference of intracellular TLR7/9 expression levels in two groups was compared. Furthermore,the correlation between TLR7/9 expression and clinical parameters such as ESR, CRP, complement 3 (C3), complement 4 (CA), the level of serum IgG, anti-double stranded DNA antibody, anti-nuclear antibodies, SLEDAI score and urine protein excretion level, were analyzed.
