Objective Based on the result that a gene coding for human HSS had been identified and prokaryotically expressed, this study is aiming to investigate the proliferative and protective effect of recombinant HSS on hepatoma cells. Methods hHSS protein was produced in BL\|21 strain of E.Coli containing pET\|42a vector and purified with His\5Tag affinity chromatography. A various dosages of 80\|400??g/L were administrated into cell culture. The cell proliferation was analyzed by MTT, cell\|count and flow cytometry methods. Furthermore, cellular growth signaling as indexed by phosphorylation of mitogen\|activated protein kinase (MAPK) was determined with Western blot. In addition to cell growth, protection of hHSS on the cells against H\-2O\-2 was also observed. Results It was showed that recombinaht HSS of 400??g/L was able to promote DNA synthesis by 21\^5% as compared to non\|treated cells. After 24?h of HSS action, the cell division measured by MTT method as well as cell\|count was significantly enhanced. Meantime, it was indicated that the phosphorylation of MAPK Thr202/Tyr204 was increased in 79\^0% as compared with that of the non\|treated cells. Pretreatment of the cells with hHSS for 12?h prior to H 2O 2 injury preserved the survival of them.Conclusion It is postulated that hHSS is an active protein to stimulate liver proliferation. [

G protein- coupled receptors (GPCRs), also known as seven- transmembrane domain receptors, constitute the largest superfamily of cell surface receptors. By coupling to heterotrimeric G proteins, arrestins and other signaling molecules, GPCRs modulate diverse signal transduction pathways under physiological and pathological conditions. Recent studies have revealed crucial roles of GPCRs in tumorigenesis and development of cancer metastasis. This review summarizes roles of GPCRs, particularly the roles of those coupled to chemokines, prostaglandin, lysophosphatidic acid, endothelin, catecholamine and angiotensin in proliferation, invasion, metastasis and angiogenesis of hepatoma cells and development of hepatocellular carcinoma. The potential of GPCRs- based therapeutics being used for hepatocellular carcinoma is also highlighted.

Objective To explore the risk factors and outcomes associated with pulmonary hemorrhage in very low and extremely low birth weight infants.Methods Retrospective analysis were performed to predict risk factors for pulmonary hemorrhage in very low and extremely low birth weight infants (birth weight less than 1200g) admitted to NICU of Shengjing Hospital from Jan.2010 to Dec.2015.Infants at similar birth weight without pulmonary hemorrhage were as controls.We compared the characteristics of both maternal and infants.Multivariable Logistic regression models were derived to predict pulmonary hemorrhage.Short outcomes of the infants were assessed.Results Of the 435 neonates,71 developed pulmonary hemorrhage (pulmonary hemorrhage group),364 were as controls (control group).Gestational age[(28.2±1.7)week],birth weight[(936±192)g] in pulmonary hemorrhage group were significantly lower than those in control group[(29.5±2.1)week,(1033±134)g,t=4.776,5.145,P<0.01].Neonatal respiratory distress syndrome(RDS)(76.1%),pulmonary surfactant (PS)use(PS use≥2 courses)[76.1%(9.9%)],patent ductus arteriosus (PDA)(66.2%)were significantly higher than those in control group[41.2%,30.8%(4.1%),38.7%;χ2=33.457,28.970(4.074),32.798,P<0.05].Antenatal corticosteroids utility ratio (21.1%)was lower than that in the control group (41.2%;t=10.177,P< 0.001).Multiple factors Logistic stepwise regression analysis showed that RDS (OR=3.739,95%CI 1.383-10.113,P<0.05 ),PDA (OR=2.206,95%CI 1.205-4.093,P<0.05),and 5 minutes Apgar score <7(OR=2.851,95%CI 1.191-6.828) were independent risk factors of pulmonary hemorrhage,and higher birth weight (OR=0.998,95%CI 0.996-1.000,P<0.05) and the use of antenatal corticosteroids (OR=0.432,95%CI 0.224-0.834,P<0.05) were the protection factors in pulmonary hemorrhage.In pulmonary hemorrhage group,the incidence of intracranial hemorrhage,retinopathy of prematurity and severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia(16.9%,12.7% and 18.3%) were significantly higher than those in control group (5.8%,4.4% and 2.2%;χ2=36.824,7.520 and 33.568,P<0.01);Compared to control group,the mortality in pulmonary hemorrhage group was higher (49.3% vs.14.0%;χ2=46.634,P<0.01).Conclusion Pulmonary hemorrhage in very low and extremely low birth weight infants is associated with multiple factors.Prevention of premature birth and prenatal corticosteroids treatment can help prevent the occurrence of pulmonary hemorrhage.The incidences of poor outcomes are higher in newborns with pulmonary hemorrhage.

Objective To explore the curative effect of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) in the treatment of acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Methods Clinical data of 64 patients with ACS were retrospectively analyzed,41 patients received CABG (CABG group) and 23 patients received percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI,PCI group).Mainly cardiac events and secondary cardiac events were compared.Results The incidence rate of cadiovascular and cerebrovascular events during hospitalization in CABG group was 7.32％(3/41),in PCI group was 8.70％ (2/23),there was no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).All patients accomplished follow-up and follow-up time was 12-48 months.The meta follow-up time in CABG group was 35.26 months,in PCI group was 33.19 months.The incidence rate of cadiovascular and cerebrovascular events during follow-up in CABG group was 19.51％ (8/41),in PCI group was 30.43％(7/23),there was no significant difference (P＞ 0.05).The incidence rate of death,myocardial infarction,cerebrovascular events,angina pectoris and total cadiovascular and cerebrovascular events between two groups had no significant difference(P＞ 0.05).Conclusions The surgery treatment in ACS is feasible,the curative effect of CABG and PCI is therapeutic equivalence.The choice of operation should be based on patients' condition and individual choice.Appropriate revascularization can get the best treatment efficiency.

Metformin, a representative of biguanides, is currently the world's first line of treatment for type 2 diabetes. A considerable number of studies have showed that it can inhibit the occurrence and development of liver cancer, pancreatic cancer, breast cancer and other malignant tumors. In the field of gynecology, over the years, with the early detection rate of gynecological tumors and the improvement of surgical methods, the research on the prognosis and control of gynecological tumor has become a hot research topic in clinical and scientific research, and has been related to the research on the relationship between metformin and gynecological tumor. This shows that metformin in the field of gynecological cancer has a very optimistic prospects and research space. In this review, we will discuss the recent progress in the study of metformin in the field of gynecologic oncology.

With the recent success of the Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor, ibrutinib, and the phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor idelalisib in the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), a number of new agents targeting the B cell receptor (BCR) pathway are in clinical development. In the 57th American Society of Hematology (ASH) annual meeting, great interests are still focused on these two drugs, either monotherapy or combination in the treatment of CLL. On the other hand, SYK inhibitors, new BTK and PI3K antagonists are also coming to the forefront, casting a new light on the treatment of ibrutinib/idelalisb-resistant patients. The progresses of BCR pathway inhibitors in CLL will be summarized in this paper based on the reports in the 57th ASH annual meeting.
