Objective To probe the differential diagnostic value of color Doppler ultrasonography(CDU)in cystitis glandularis.Methods Thirty-nine cystitis glandularis and 192 bladder cancer were examined with CDU.The location,shape,boundary,internal echo and relationship with wall of urinary bladder of lesion were observed.Internal blood flow disposition of lesion were detection.The results of CDU were compared with those of cistoscope biopsy and pathologic diagnosis after operation.Results 59.0%(23/39)cystitis glandularis and 52.9%(74/140)bladder cancer lesions located in trigone of bladder and surrounded the orifice of ureter.53.8%(21/39)cystitis glandularis showed part wall thickening and 72.9%(140/192)bladder cancer showed single nodus or bolus.Sacculiform anechoic area were observed in 69.2%(27/39)cystitis glandularis and were not observed in bladder cancer.Punctiform hyperechogenicity appeared in periphery of 48.4%(93/192)bladder cancer and 7.7%(3/39)cystitis glandularis.The detection rate of interior blood flow signal of bladder cancer was 84.9%(163/1 92),which was obviously higher than that of cystitis glandularis.The diagnostic accurate rates of CDU in cystitis glandularis and bladder cancer were 84.6%(33/39)and 95.3%(183/192),respectively.Conclusions CDU can clear display the location,shape,boundary,internal echo and relationship with wall of urinary bladder of cystitis glandularis and is of important value in diagnosis,differential diagnosis and clinical fllow-up of cystitis glandularis.

Objective To compare the diagnostic value of DSA with that of Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI for postoperative recurrent tiny hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) lesions.Methods The clinical data of a total of 38 patients,who were admitted to authors' hospital during the period from September 2011 to March 2016 as clinically they were suspected to have postoperative recurrent tiny HCC lesions,were retrospectively analyzed.DSA,DSA plus lipiodol CT scan and Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI were performed in all patients.The positive and negative diagnosis rates were compared among different examination methods,the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were calculated.The imaging diagnosis of each patient was made by two associationchief radiologists independently,both the pathological findings from surgery or puncture biopsy and the 6-month follow-up results were taken as the final diagnosis basis.Results A total of 47 lesions were detected in the 38 patients.The diameter of the lesions was 0.5-2.0 cm,with an average of (1.2+0.8) cm.Of the 47 lesions,41 were proved to be recurrent tiny HCC lesions.Among the 41 lesions,22 had pathological evidence,and the remaining 19 lesions were confirmed through clinical follow-up.Six lesions were non-HCC focus,which were proved by clinical follow-up.For all lesions,the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were 72.2％ and 80.0％ respectively by conventional DSA,which were 90.2％ and 100％ respectively by DSA plus lipiodol CT scan,and were 95.1％ and 100％ respectively by Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI.Statistical analysis indicated that significant differences in diagnostic sensitivity and specificity existed between conventional DSA and DSA plus lipiodol CT scan as well as between conventional DSA and Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI (P＜0.05),while the differences in diagnostic sensitivity and specificity between DSA plus lipiodol CT scan and Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI were not statistically significant (P＞0.05).Conclusion For the detection of postoperative recurrent tiny HCC lesions,DSA plus lipiodol CT scan has quite the same diagnostic value as Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI does.For patients who are not suitable to receive MRI examination,the use of DSA plus lipiodol CT scan,as an alternative means of inspection,should be taken into consideration.

OBJECTIVETo study the in-vitro inducing apoptosis mechanism of human hepatoma SMMC-7721 cells by 2',4'-di- hydroxy-6'-methoxy-3',5'-dimethylchalcone (DMC), a chalcone compound from Cleistocalyx operculatus.

METHODQuantitative DNA fragmentation assay was carried out to detect the effect of DMC of different concentrations on SMMC-7721 cells, according to the method of Sellins and Cohen with some modifications. Telomerase activities of the cells were determined by PCR-ELISA methods. The expression quantity of c-myc and hTERT mRNA were determined by semi-quantitative RT-PCR The effect of DMC on expression levels of cmyc and hTERT protein were measured by western blot.

RESULTThe percentage of DNA fragmentation increased with notable concen- tration dependence, after treatment with DMC for 48 h. Compared with that of control group, the telomerase activity of the cells de- creased by (66.2 ± 2.1)% after 48 h treatment with 20 μmol x L(-1) DMC, the mRNA expression of c-myc and hTERT decreased by (67.3 ± 2.1)% and (64.4 ± 2.3)%, respectively, and the protein expression of c-myc and hTERT decreased by (69.6 ± 1.9)% and (71.3 ± 2.4)%, respectively.

CONCLUSIONDMC can induce SMMC-7721 cell apoptosis and the apoptosis mechanism may be related to the decreased mRNA and protein expression of c-myc and hTERT.

Objective： To study the expression and role of IL-6, IL-6 receptor(IL-6R) and acute phase reaction factor (APRF) in PMNC of multiple myeloma(MM) patients. Methods:The bioactivity of IL-6 and the level of sIL-6R in sera of MM patients were measured using IL-6 dependent cell line 7TD1 and ELISA respectively. The APRF activity of PMNC DNA binding protein was observed by gel blocking electrophoresis (EMSA). Results:The bioactivity of IL-6 and the level of sIL-6R in MM sera were significantly higher than those of the control and the level was coordinated with that of the tumor. The results of PMNC DNA binding protein EMSA showed that PMNC of MM patients expressed APRF after stimulation of IL-6,whereas there was no activity of APRF in the normal PMNC. Conclusion:In MM,some regulation machines of IL-6 signal transduction pathways changed (eg.protein kinase), resulting in the activation of transcription of acute phase reaction element(APRE), APRF may have a role in pathogenesis of MM.

To investigate the TGFβ1-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of Huh7 hepatoma cells caused by interaction of hepatitis B spliced protein (HBSP) with transforming growth factor beta-1-induced transcript 1 protein (TGFβ31I1),coding region of HBSP was cloned into lentiviral expression vector.Huh7 hepatoma cells were infected by recombinant lentivirus packaged in 293T cells.Stable cell lines expressing HBSP or control cells were selected by puromycin.Cells were incubated with 5 ng/mL TGFβ1 for 24 h,and observed under contrast-phase microspcope.Then the whole cell lysates were collected for western blot analysis using specific antibodies against EMT markers including E-cadherin,N-cadherin,Claudin-1 and β-catenin.To evaluate the effects of HBSP-TGFβ1I1 interaction on EMT,TGFβ1-induced EMT marker transition,as well as cell invasion and migration were explored after knocking down of TGFβ1I1 by siRNA.Results showed that Huh7 cell lines expressing HBSP (Huh7-HBSP flag-HIV) and control cell lines (Huh7-flag-HIV) were successfully established.Huh7-HBSP flag-HIV cells lost their pebble-like shape and tight cell-cell adhesion and transformed into the mesenchymal-like cells in the presence of TGFβ1.Decreased expression level of epithelial marker of E-cadherin,Claudin-1,β-catenin,increased expression level of mesenchymal marker of N-cadherin,and enhanced migration and invasion abilities were observed in Huh7-HBSP-flag-HIV cells as compared to the control cells.Moreover,the changes of EMT markers and metastasis abilities of Huh7-HBSP-flag-HIV cells could be reversed when TGFβ111 was knocked down by siRNA.In conclusion,HBSP could promote hepatoma cell migration and invasion by triggering EMT via interaction with TGFβ111.Our findings highlight new insights for HBSP-induced HCC progression.

Objective To probe the value of color Doppler flow imaging(CDFI) in diagnosis of borderline ovarian epithelial tumors (BOET).Methods Thirty-six cases of BOET,139 cases of ovarial cystadenoma and 66 cases of ovarial cystadenocarcinoma were diagnosed pathologically.All cases were preoperatively detected by CDFI.Tumor sign CA125 was also detected.The size,boundary,internal echo and internal flow distribution were observed.The results of CDFI of different diseases were contrasted.Results Ultrasonic diagnosis rate was 75 ％ (27/36) in BOET,90.6 ％ (126/139) in ovarial cystadenoma and 92.4 ％ (61/66) in ovarial cystadenocarcinoma.Positive rate of CA125 of ovarial cystadenocarcinoma was obviously higher than those of BOET and ovarial cystadenoma.Positive rate of CA125 of ovarial cystadenocarcinoma containing solid was especially higher than that of BOET containing solid.Ovarial cystadenoma mainly showed single cavity,few or without solid as well as hematoasthenia or asanguineous.BOET and ovarial cystadenocarcinoma mainly showed multi-cavity,more solid as well as plentiful blood flow.Blood flow of BOET distributed regularly comparing with ovarial cystadenocarcinoma.Conclusions Characteristics of CDFI combining results of CA125 can provide powerful reference for diagnosise and differentiate diagnosis of BOET and more information diagnostic information for clinic to chosing treatment scheme and postoperative long-term follow-up.

Objective To study the feasibility and effect of endoscopic breast conserving surgery in the treatment of early stage of breast cancer(EBC) via transaxillary small concealing incision. Methods Twenty -one cases of EBC were treated by endoscopic breast conserving surgery,combined with the lipolysis and suction of the fat in axilla, via transaxillary small incision. Results There was no cancer residue in all the resected margins of all samples confirmed by the frozen sections. The lymph nodes metastasis was found in 3 cases. The average operation time was 81.6 minutes. Subcutaneous liquid collection occurred in one case postoperatively,the liquid disappeared quickly after treatment. All patient′s had a good breast configuration. All patients were followed-up for 3.1 months to 15.6 months after operation. There were no recurrence and distant metastasis in this series. Conclusions Breast conserving surgery can be smoothly performed by a small concealing incision with endoscope. This operation has many advantages, such as the incision is small and concealing, so it can improve the patients′ quality of life. The suction of the fat in axilla makes axillary dissection easier.
