Objective In this angiographic trial,we compared the efficacy and safety of Pro-UK with urokinase in Chinese patients with acute myocardial infarction.Methods We recruited patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction presented within 6 hours in Beijing Tongren Hospital offiliated to Capital Vnirersity of Medical Sciences from Feb.2003 to Mar.2004.After giving informed consent,patients were assigned a bolus and infusion of Pro-UK or a infusion of urokinase.The primary efficacy end points and safety end points were observed.Results Overall 26 patients were enrolled in the trial,of whom 16 patients were assigned to receive Pro-UK(6 patients to 40mg,6 patients to 50 mg,4 patients to 60 mg),and 10 patients to urokinase.The rates of TIMI grade 3 flow were 56.25%(9/16)with Pro-UK and 70%(7/10) with urokinase(P=0.683),of whom 66.7%(4/6) with 50 mg Pro-UK,75%(3/4)with 60 mg Pro-UK. The rates of TIMI grade 2 or 3 were similar for patients treated with Pro-UK versus urokinase(56.25% and 80%,respectively,P=0.399). All safety end points were similar between the two groups. The level of fibrinogen in blood plasma was significantly higher in Pro-UK group than that in urokinase group,indicating that Pro-UK had higher fibrin-specificity.Conclusion The bolus and 30 minutes infusion of Pro-UK 50 mg and 60 mg was clinically safe and effective thrombolytic regimen,but need further study.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of N(2)-L-alanyl-L-glutamine (Ala-Glu) on perioperative insulin resistance in patients undergoing radical colon cancer operation.MethodsSixty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients of both sexes aged 35-75 yr with BMI of 18.5-25.0 kg/m2 undergoing redical colon cancer operation under general anesthesia were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n =20 each):control group(group C) ; vehicle group (group Ⅴ) and group Ala-Glu.Ala-Glu 22.5 ml/kg was administered iv at 24 h before and 1 h after operation in group AlaGlu,while in groups C and V equal volume of normal saline and vehicle were given iv instead of Ala-Glu.Venous blood samples were taken at 24 h before operation (T1),30 main before ( T2 ) and 3 h after induction of anesthesia (T3) and 1 and 24 h after operation (T4,T5 ) for determination of blood concentrations of glucose (BG),insulin ( INS)-,TNF-α and free fatty acid (FFA).Insulin resistance ( HOMA-IR =BG × INS ÷ 22.5) and insulin sensitivity index (ISI =1 ÷ (lgBG + lgINS) ) were calculated.The time when the patients passed flatus,the days of hospitali-zation after operation,and the incidence of insulin resistance were recorded.ResuitsAla-Glu significantly decreased blood concentrations of BG,INS,TNF-α,FFA and HOMA-IR and increased ISI in group Ala-Glu as compared with groups C and V.The patients passed flatus earlier after operation and postoperative hospital stay was shorter and the incidence of insulin resistance was lower in group Ala-Glu than in groups C and V.There was no significant difference in all the indexes between group C and group V.ConclusionN (2)-L-alanyl-L-glutamine can attenuate perioperative insulin resistance in patients undergoing colon cancer resection and is helpful to patient' s recovery,and the decrease in the concentrations of TNF-α and FFA may be involved in the mechanism.

The solvent sublation technique was applied for the separation and enrichment of L-Arg using dodecylbenzene sulfonic (DBSA) as the surfactant, di (2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (P204) as the extractant and n-heptane as the organic solution. The solvent sublation was compared with the floatation complexation extraction, foam floatation and solvent extraction. The experimental results showed that enrichment ratio of 16.2 and removal rate of 97.2% to L-Arg were obtained by the solvent sublation under the conditions of room temperature, 0.09 g/L L-Arg aqueous solution 250 mL, DBSA concentration 0.15 g/L, the initial pH 7.0, volume of n-heptane 10 mL, volume of P204 4.5 mL, gas flow rate of 200 mL/min. The study of the kinetics indicated that the solvent sublation process could be divided into three stages distinctly. The processes of the first stage and the second stage followed the first order kinetics equation; the process of the third stage followed the zero order kinetics equation. The separation mechanism of solvent sublation was also discussed.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between the CCNE1 or RIP2, identified at a single nucleotide poly?morphism, and the risk, clinic stage and pathological grade of bladder cancer. Methods Peripheral venous blood samples were obtained from 176 patients with bladder cancer and 210 controls without cancer. DNA was extracted. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method was used to detect CCNE1 (rs8102137) and RIP2 (rs42490) polymorphism. According to the postoper?ative pathological results, patients with bladder cancer were determined the grading and staging. The genotype differences of medium gene and the distribution gene were analyzed and compared in bladder cancer group and control group. The relation?ship of CCNE1 (rs8102137) and RIP2 (rs42490) genotypes and clinical data of patients with bladder cancer was analyzed, and the relationship of them with the genetic susceptibility to bladder cancer was also analyzed. Results The genotype dis?tribution was with good group representative in control group. The frequency of CCNE1(rs8102137) variant allele was signifi?cantly higher in bladder cancer group (40.91%) than that of control group (30.95%,OR=1.54,95%CI:1.02-2.45, P<0.05). The frequency of RIP2 (rs42490) variant allele was significantly higher in bladder cancer group (72.73%) than that of control group (62.38%, OR=1.61, 95%CI:1.04-2.48, P<0.05). There were no significant differences in gene polymorphisms of CC?NE1(rs8102137) and RIP2 (rs42490) between different pathological grades and different clinical stages of bladder cancer. Conclusion The CCNE1 (rs8102137) and RIP2 (rs42490) polymorphism have interaction in occurrence of bladder cancer process. There is higher risk of bladder cancer in individuals carrying mutant alleles than that of individuals carrying wild type.

BACKGROUND:Adipose-derived stem cel s are totipotent stem cel s in the adipose tissue, and have the function of self-renewal and multi-directional differentiation. Human adipose-derived stem cel s are ideal seed cel s with stable genetic milieu and few rejections.
OBJECTIVE:To extract human adipose-derived stem cel s from human omental adipose tissue and to identify the cel s by adipogenic and osteogenic induction.
METHODS:Omental adipose tissues were col ected from surgical patients to isolate and culture adipose-derived stem cel s using type I col agenase digestion, filtration and centrifugation. Cel growth was observed and proliferative curve of human adipose-derived stem cel s were drawn by cel counting method to calculate the doubling time at logarithmic growth phase. After adipogenic and osteogenic induction, induced cel s were identified using oil red O and alizarin red staining, respectively.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Human adipose-derived stem cel s were successful y isolated from the omentum tissues of surgical patients. Adherent cel s were fusiform-shaped and like fibroblasts. The growth curve of passage 3 cel s was in S shape, and the doubling time was 45.90 hours. After adipogenic and osteogenic induction for 2 and 3 hours, respectively, oil red O staining showed unequal-sized orange fat droplets, and alizarin red staining showed typical calcified nodules that were in orange. These findings indicate that adipose-derived stem cel s have the adipogenic and osteogenic capacity.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of heme oxygenase-1(HO-1) in gastric adenocarcinoma and its peritoneal metastatic tissues, as well as drug-resistant cell strains. Methods The expression of HO-1 in patients with (n=68) or without (n=46) peritoneal metastasis of gastric adenocarinoma was examined. The expression of HO-1 in cancerous tissue, peritoneal metastatic foci, and normal peritoneum was detected by immunohistochemistry. The expression of HO-1 protein in metastatic foci and drug-resistant cell strains was measured by Western blotting. Results The positive expression of HO-1 was 39.7% (27/68) in gastric adenocarcinoma tissues with metastasis and 41.2% (28/68) in peritoneal metastatic tissues, which was significantly higher than that in normal peritoneum (0%,0/68,P<0.01) and gastric adenocarcinoma tissues without metastasis (21.7%, 10/46, P<0.05). The Western blot study showed that the HO-1 expression in metastatic tissues was higher than that in normal peritoneum (P<0.05). The expression of HO-1 protein was markedly increased in GC9811-P drug-resistant cell strains compared with its parental cell strains (P<0.05). Conclusions The increased expression of HO-1 may be involved in the peritoneal metastasis of gastric adenocarcinoma, and related to the malignant potential. The underlying signal pathways in neopastic epithelium may also be related to the multi-drug resistance.
