Objective To summarize the strategies for perioperative nursing of the patients with radical resection of esophageal carcinoma under combination of thoracoscopy and laparoscopy.Method Eighteen patients with radical resection of esophageal carcinoma were treated with a combination of thoracoscopy and laparoscopy and their histories were retrospectively reviewed.Results Before the operation,nursing care focused on psychological nursing and preparations of operating room and various operating instruments.During the operation,the key nursing points included position care,proper cooperation with doctors,strict aseptic procedures and non-tumor techniques to reduce postoperative infections and dissemination of tumor cells.All the patients lived through the successful operations,their recovery satisfactory.The blood loss ranged from 100 mL to 300 mL,averaged(225.00±24.30)mL. Conclusions Radical resection of esophageal carcinoma under the combination of thoracoscopy and laparoscopy is technically feasible and safe.The perioperative nursing care is important for the improvement of operative success.

Dexamethasone is a synthetic glucocorticoid that is widely used in clinical due to its multiple pharmacological effects. Recently, dexamethasone is increasingly utilized in anti-cancer therapy. It is frequently used to prevent side effects of chemotherapy such as nausea, vomiting and pain, as well as to increase the anti-tumor activity of the cancer chemotherapeutic agents as a chemosensitizer and to inhibit tumor growth as an anti-cancer agent in some certain cancers. Dexamethasone produces the effects in anti-inflammation, anti-angiogenesis, control of estrogen activity and so on, by binding to glucocorticoid receptor to regulate gene expression of some important bio-signal molecules. Those signal pathways could interfere with the transcription of various factors which can regulate proliferation, invasion and metastasis of tumors.

BACKGROUND:Chondromodulin-Ⅰ is expressed mainly in the cartilage, but it is little expressed in mesenchymal stem cells. Combined with the previous study of our group, we concluded that chondromodulin-Ⅰmaybe play an important role in inducing mesenchymal stem cells into chondrocytes accurately.
OBJECTIVE:To construct an expression plasmid stably carrying chondromodulin-Ⅰ to up-regulate the expression of chondromodulin-Ⅰ in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.
METHODS:Specific primers were designed in rat cartilage for chondromodulin-Ⅰ gene, then the pcDNA3.1 (+) plasmid expression vector was digested by enzyme and directional connected gene to construct pcDNA3.1(+)/ChM-Ⅰ expression vector. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were obtained from rats using the method of density gradient centrifugation combined with adherent culture. Recombinant plasmid pcDNA3.1(+)/ChM-Ⅰ was transfected into rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells with liposome method, and G418 selection was used for stable screen of transfected cells. Reverse transcription-PCR and western blot were used to detect chondromodulin-Ⅰ expression in celllines.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The positive clones were digested by enzyme and were identified and sequenced. The results showed that the reality length and sequence of chondromodulin-Ⅰ gene were consistent with the theoretical values, and reading frame was correct. Reverse transcription-PCR and western blot results showed that the expressions of chondromodulin-ⅠmRNA and protein were markedly up-regulated in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Recombinant plasmid pcDNA3.1(+)/ChM-I was successful y constructed, and transfected into rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. After G418 selection, expression of chondromodulin-Ⅰ was up-regulated stably in rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.

Background Krüppel-like factor 6 (KLF6) is related to the physiological or pathological process,such as growth,cell differentiation,proliferation,apoptosis,angiogenesis,tissue repair,and so on.But in ophthalmology,it is less reported about the expressing level of KLF6 protein in lens epithelial cclls (LECs) or the effect of KLF6 on the proliferation of human LECs.Objective This study was to investigate whether KLF6 can inhibit proliferation of human LECs.Methods KLF6 eukaryotic expression plasmid (pEGFP-C2-KLF6) was constructed using reverse transcription PCR(RT-PCR) and identified by double enzyme digestion method and PCR.Human LECs strain (HLE-B3) was cultured and passaged using low glucose DMEM containing 10% fetal bovine serum and then divided into 4 groups.KLE-B3 transfection reagents were added in the culture medium of all groups.In addition,no agent was used in the blank control group;only insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) was appended to the medium in only IGF-1 group ;null vector was transfected and IGF-1 was appended in the null plasmid transfection+ IGF-1 group;while pEGFP-C2-KLF6 eukaryotic expression plasmid was transfected into the cells,and simultaneously IGF-1 was added in the pEGFP-C2-KLF6 plasmid transfection+IGF-1 group.After 24 hours of intervene,water soluble tetrazolium salt-1 (WST-1) test was used to detect the growth status of the cells,and Western blot assay was used to assay the relative expressing level of KLF6 protein in the cells.In the other hand,the cells were cultured at the density of 1 ×104/piece,and 0,0.10 and 0.25 μg pEGFP-KLF6 were transfected into each piece of cells respectively,and then IGF-1 was added with a final concentration of 50 μg/L for 24 hours after cell culture.Expressions of Ki-67 protein and mRNA in the cell pieces were detected by immunocytochemistry and fluorescent semiquantitative PCR,respectively.Results The PCR product bands were consistent with KLF-6 gene in length,and the product fragments were corresponding with expectant ones via PCR and double enzyme digestion method,showing a successful construction of pEGFP-C2-KLF6 eukaryotic expression plasmid.After 24 hours of IGF-1 stimulation,the absorbance values of the cells were 0.86±0.00,2.10±0.01,2.24±0.12 and 1.06±0.02 in the blank control group,only IGF-1 group,null plasmid transfection + IGF-1 group and the pEGFP-C2-KLF6 plasmid transfection + IGF-1 group,with a significant difference among the 4 groups (F =38.322,P < 0.05),and that in the pEGFP-C2-KLF6 plasmid transfection +IGF-1 group was significantly lowed in comparison with the only IGF-1 group and the null plasmid transfection+IGF-1 group (q=6.42,7.31,both at P<0.05).Western blot assay showed that the relative expressing levels of KLF6 protein were statistically different among the four groups (F =591.858,P<0.05),and those in the pEGFP-C2-KLF6 plasmid transfection+IGF-1 group were 1.47,2.04,3.27 folds higher than those in the blank control group,only IGF-1 group,respectively and null plssmid transfection+IGF-1 group,respectively.Immunocytochemistry revealed that the expressing intensity of Ki-67 protein was gradually weakened with the decrease of pEGFP-C2-KLF6 plasmid dose in the 0,0.10 and 0.25 μg pEGFP-C2-KLF6 plasmid transfection+IGF-1 groups.Fluorescence semiquantitative PCR results showed that the relative expression values of Ki-67 mRNA in the cells were O.15±0.08 and 0.11±0.03 in the 0.10 μg and 0.25 μg pEGFP-C2-KLF6 plasmid transfection+ IGF-1 groups,which were significantly lower than O.77± 0.12 of the 0 μg pEGFP-C2-KLF6 plasmid transfection group,with a statistically significant difference among the three groups (F =54.825,P<0.05).Conclusions KLF-6 can effectively inhibit IGF-1-induced proliferation of human LECs,and it can be regarded as one of the regulatory factors of the proliferation of HLE-B3 cells.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of the depression during emotional processing.Methods 24 participants with first episode of depression and healthy controls were assessed with HAMD scale,using DTI to dectect values of white matter FA,and using fMRI with pictures of emotional stimuli;thus results related with imagings were produced.The results were statistically analyzed.Results The brain areas indicating FA values deference with statistial significance in depression patients compared with the control ones included:left and right frontal lobe (left frontal lobe depression group 0.324 ± 0.090,control group 0.467 ± 0.072,P < 0.01),corpus callosum knee (depression group 0.614 ±0.146,control group 0.734 ±0.063,P<0.01),anterior cingulate gyrus (depression group 0.222 ±0.035,control group 0.343 ±0.021,P<0.01) ;the fronal FA values in depression grop were negatively correlated with the duration of bilateral frontal white matter (r =-0.555,P < 0.01).The activation of emotional brain regions stimulated by pictures includes frontal cortex-subcortical reticular system,and the hypothalamus and limbic system.There was a significant difference between two groups.Conclusion There may be abnormal emotional processing dystunction in patients with depression.It may be the pathological basis to have frontal white matter fiber tracts broken.
