Cancer Research and Clinic 2012;24(6):427-430
The morbidity of young non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)increases in the recent years.Young group patients should be defined as age under 40 years old.The risk factors of etiology in the young NSCLC may be related with smoking,genetic predisposition,Internal and external environment factors havoc and etc.There is no specific symptoms of young NSCLC,therefor,it happens misdiagnosis and harder to be confirmed.The morbidity in young female group of NSCLC patients is higher than aged patients.The most frequent histopathologic type is adenocarcinoma and the ratio of advanced stages with low differentiation has been found to be more common.The chances of surgery seems lower than others.EGFR gene mutation percentage in the young NSCLC maybe lower than that in the old patients,while the positive mutation of MEL4-ALK gene maybe more prevalent in the young patients.The prognosis of young NSCLC seems to be poor with lower tumor progression time of the first line therapy.Better prognosis of young NSCLC patients maybe achieved by early diagnosis and efficient therapy according to the accurate genotypes.
2.Design, synthesis, and PPARgamma agonistic activity of novel indenone derivatives.
Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2013;48(4):508-13
Agonists of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) are of interest as a treatment of type II diabetes, and indenone derivatives are a new class of non-TZD PPARgamma agonists. Based on existing indenone derivatives, a series of novel ones have been designed and synthesized. Meanwhile the structures have been comfirmed with 1H NMR and MS. Among them, 17b and 19 showed higher agonistic activities than rosiglitazone.

Objective To observe the correlation between platelet parameters , platelet activation marker and carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods One hundred and ninety-five type 2 diabetic patients were enrolled in this study. The patients were divided into the normal control group, the CIMT increased group and the clot group according to the carotid intima-media thickness. Levels of platelet count (PLT), mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW), platelet hematocrit(PCT), urinary 11-dehydro-thromboxane B2 (11-DH-TXB2) and other clinical, biochemical characteristics were measured. Results (1) Levels of serum LDL-C, MPV, PDW, urinary 11-DH-TXB2 and clinical course in the clot group were higher than those in the CIMT increased group and the normal control group (P < 0.05). (2) Compared with the normal control group, the clinical course, serum LDL-C, MPV, PDW and urinary 11-DH-TXB2 were higher in the CIMT increased group (P < 0.05). (3) By using with spearman rank correlation test, carotid intima-media thickness was positively associated with age , course , BMI , GLU , GHbA1C , LDL-C , MPV , PDW and urinary 11-DH-TXB2, whereas carotid intima-media thickness was negative associated with HDL-C, PLT (both P < 0.05). (4) MPV, PDW and urinary11-DH-TXB2 were shown as the independent risk factors for CIMT. Conclusions Platelet activation marker and platelet parameters are associated with carotid intima-media thickness in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Objective To investigate the correlation between three gene locus polymorphisms of X-ray repair cross-complementary protein 1 (XRCC1) exon (Arg194Trp, Arg280His and Arg399Gln) and the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). Methods A case-control study was performed in 250 CRC patients (case group, 128 colon cancer patients and 122 rectal cancer patients) and 213 healthy individuals (control group). The three gene locus polymorphism of XRCC1 was tested by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. The genotype distribution and allele frequency of each locus was analyzed with SPSS 10.0 software. Results There was no significant difference in allele frequency of XRCC1 at 194 and 399 loci (P > 0.05). However, the 280 Arg/His allele frequency of XRCC1 was higher in case group than that in control group (OR=1.66,95%CI:1.01~2.73,P=0.047). The 280Arg/His allele frequency was higher in rectal cancer group than that in control group (OR =1.82,95%CI:1.02~3.27). The frequency of 280His allele (Arg280His and His280His) was higher in case group than that in control group (OR=1.85,95%CI:1.06~3.22). However, it was a relative low risk factor of colon cancer and there was no significant difference between colon cancer group and control group (OR=1.85, 95%CI:1.06~3.22). Conclusions There was no correlation between XRCC1 Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln polymorpohisms and the risk of CRC. However, 280Arg/His genotype may increase the risk of CRC, and 280His allele is a risk factor of rectal cancer.

Objective: To investigate the effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) on the variation of intestinal permeability damaged by superior mesenteric artery ischemia and reperfusion. Methods: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were isolated from cavity of tibias and femurs of male Sprague Dawley rat in a sterile condition, and were cultured and proliferated in plastic dishes. 10 week old female Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups:group A (sham group), group B (MSC group) and group C (saline group). In group B and group C, the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) of the animals were seperated and occluded by non-invasive vascular clamp for 45 minutes. Immediately after removing the vascular clamp,1×10~7 MSC suspended in 0.5 ml sterile L-DMEM and the same volume of normal saline was submucosally injected into the small intestine at ten different points in group B and group C, respectively. In group A, the animals were only underwent laparotomy without clamping the SMA. 3 days and 6 days after the operation, 100 mg lactulose and 50mg mannitol dissolved in 2 ml distilled water were administrated by oral gavage and urine during 6 h experiment was collected for assaying the L/M ratio before sacrificing the animals. The donor derived MSC was identified by Y chromosome in situ hybridization in ileum tissue, and the serum D-lactate level was determined. Results: The donor derived MSC could home to the ischemia/reperfusion injured intestinal mucosa, and the intestinal permeability was much lower in group B (MSC group) than that in group C (saline group)(P<0.05). Conclusion: Mesenchymal stem cells can reduce the small intestinal mucosal permeability impaired by ischemia/reperfusion, and can participate in the preservation of integrity of the damaged gut mucosal mechanical barrier.
