Objective To assess the initial clinical effect of combined endovascular and extravascular neurointerventional technique for treatment of acutely ruptured cerebral aneurysms.Methods Forty patients with acutely ruptured aneurysms were embolized with Guglielmi detachable coil (GDC) or Dendron electrically detachable coil (EDC) firstly. Immediately after the embolization, all patients were received lumbar puncture and over-the-wire microcatheters were catheterized into cisterna magna via the spinal subarachnoid space. Urokinase(100,000 IU in 2mL normal saline) was injected into cisterna magna via the microcatheter to dissolve clot 2 hours later. Urokinase injection was repeated according to the CT results. Results All the procedures of aneurysm embolization and catheterization of cisterna magna were successful, no technical complications were found. In all patients, CT scans of the day 3th to day 7th revealed complete disappearance of clot in basal cistern. One patient experienced transient sympotomatic cerebral vasospasm without permanent neurologic deficit. The other 39 patients didn't manifest symptomatic cerebral vasospasm. No aneurysmal rebleeding was detected. Conclusions Combined endovascular and extravascular neurointerventional technique can obliterate acutely ruptured cerebral aneurysms and remove the clot of basal cistern. It can prevent aneurysm rebleeding and cerebral vasospasm. Therefore it is a minimally invasive, safe and reasonable method for treatment of acutely ruptured cerebral aneurysms.

Objective To compare the operative and conservative treatments for senile dens fractures of Anderson-D Alonzo type Ⅱ or Ⅲ using Meta-analysis.Methods A literature search was conducted in PubMed,Embase,Web of Science,Cochrane Library,Wanfang Data and CNKI for studies on senile dens fractures of Anderson-D Alonzo type Ⅱ or Ⅲ from the earliest records through June 2016.The relative studies identified were screened by 2 independent authors.The quality of these articles was evaluated using modified Newcastle-Ottawa scale,and the meta-analysis was conducted using Review Manager 5.3.Results A total of 22 articles were brought into this Meta-analysis.The union rate was significantly higher in the operative group than in the conservative group[OR =0.30,95％ CI(0.20,0.44),P ＜ 0.001];the mortality in the operative group was significantly lower than in the conservative group[OR =0.61,95％ CI (0.39,0.96),P=0.03];the complication rate was similar in both groups[OR=1.09,95％ CI(0.76,1.57),P ＜ 0.46].The heterogeneity of all the 3 indexes was low.In the subgroup analysis,the union rate was significantly higher in posterior operations than in anterior operations or conservative treatments (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion For the elderly patients with dens fracture of type Ⅱ or Ⅲ who can tolerate surgery,operative treatment may be more suitable because it can lead to much better prognosis.

Objective To investigate the effects of glycyrrhizin on gene expression of transforming growth factor(TGF)-?signaling pathway of hepatic stellate cell(HSC)in mice by gene microarray tech- nique.Methods The HSCs were isolated from mice and cultured in vitro.Then the mice were divided into control group,TGF-?_1 group(5 ng/ml) or TGF-?_1(5 ng/ml)combined with glycyrrhizin(100?mol/L) group.The cells were collected after 10 hours to extract RNA.A cDNA microarray(GEArray~(TM) Q) targeting TGF-?/BMP signal transduction was used to screen the genes which showed significant changes in expression of TGF-?pathway of HSC by glycyrrhizin.Results The microarray analysis showed that 16 genes(16.7%),such as Smad2,Smad3,Smad7,CoL3A1,CoL1A2,and PAI-1,were upregulated by TGF-?_1 and then down-regulated by glycyrrhizin.Five genes(5.2%)(including BMP7,IGFbp3 and etc.)downregulated by TGF-?_1,were then up-regulated by glycyrrhizin.Finally,2 genes upregulated by TGF-?_1 were then up-regulated predominantly by glycyrrhizin in HSC(T?R2,betaglycan).Changes in some genes,such as Smad2 Smad3,Smad7,were further confirmed to be coincided with cDNA microarray by semi-quantitative RT-PCR.Conclusions The anti-fibrosis mechanisms of glycyrrhizin may be through to interference of TGF-?signaling pathway,decrease the synthesis and increase the degradation of collagen.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of acupoint injection with nucleotide plus conventional western medicine treatment for moderate and severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods Sixty patients confirmed as moderate and severe COPD were evenly randomized into treatment group and control group.The treatment group was given conventional western medicine treatment and injection with nucleotide on bilateral Dingchuan points,and the control group was given conventional western medicine treatment alone.The treatment lasted for one year.The frequency of COPD acute onset and hospitalization times within one year were recorded.Meanwhile,the severity of dyspnea was evaluated with Medical Research Council (MRC) dyspnea scale scoring.Results (1)The frequency of COPD acute onset and hospitalization times within one year in the treatment group were lowered,and the differences were significant compared with those in the control group (P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01).(2) After treatment,MRC dyspnea scale scores in the treatment group were improved (P ＜ 0.05 compared with those before treatment),but the improvement of the scores was insignificant in the control group(P ＞ 0.05).The intergroup comparison showed that the effect on improving MRC dyspnea scale scores in the treatment group was superior to that in the control group (P ＜ 0.05),indicating that the severity of dyspnea was much improved in the treatment group as compared with the control group.Conclusion Acupoint injection with nucleotide is effective on enhancing the therapeutic effect of conventional western medicine treatment for moderate and severe COPD.

Objective: Cell cycle has recently become more appealing as a new target of anti-carcinogen-ic agent. Diallyl disulfide (DADS) inhibits growth and induces call cycle G_2/M arrest in human gastric cancer BGC823 cells. Cell division cycle protein 25C (Cdc25C) and CyclinB1 expression are involved in G_2/M arrest.However, mechanisms of G_2/M arrest are not yet fully understood. The aim of this study was to elucidate the mechanism of cell cycle G_2/M arrest in human gastric cancer BGC823 cells induced by DADS. Methods: The expression of chk1 and Chk2 mRNA associated with cell cycle arrest of BGC823 cells after the induction with DADS for 1 or 2 days was detected by RT-PCR. The protein expression of cycle-related proteins ATM-RAD3-related gene (ATR), checkpoint kinase1 (Chk1), checkpoint kinase 2 (Chk2), P-ATR, P-Chk1 and P-Chk2 was measured by Western blot. Interaction between Chk1/2 and Cdc25C was analyzed by immuno-precipitation. Results: After the cells were treated with 15 mg/L DADS for 1 or 2 days, the expression of Chk1 and Chk2 mRNA was not significantly different from that in untreated cells (P>0.05). Western blot analysis showed that the expression of total Chk1 and Chk2 treated with 15 mg/L DADS was not significantly different from that in untreated cells. But phospho-chk1 showed a significant increase after stimulation with 15 mg/L DADS for 2h to 12h and continued to increase gradually as time went on (P<0.05). Phospho-Chk2 showed a eak expression and a weaker expression after stimulation with DADS, but the changes were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Addition of 15 mg/L DADS to BGC823 cells for 15 rain to 120 min resulted in an increase in phospho-ATR expression, whereas no changes were found in ATR expression (P<0.05). The Chk1 Ab in-creasingly precipitated Cdc25C in BGC823 cells treated with DADS (P<0.05). In contrast, Chk2 Ab failed to change precipitation with Cdc25C by DADS (P>0.05). Conclusion: Activation of chk1 was involved in cell cy-cle G_2/M arrest in BGC823 cells treated with DADS. Cell cycle G_2/M arrest by DADS is associated with phos-phorylation of several cell cycle regulatory proteins including ATR and Chk1 which regulate expression of Cdc25C.

Objective:This work aims to investigate diallyl disulfide (DADS) inhibition of cell migration and invasion in human colon cancer SW480 cells through the Rac1-ADF/cofilin1 pathway. Methods:The potential of cell migration and invasion was examined by scratch healing assay and transwell membrane assay. The expression of Rac1-ADF/cofilin1 pathway was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot. Results:After the SW480 cells were treated with 40 and 50 mg·L-1 of DADS for 24 h, the number of transmembrane cells through the Matrigel obviously decreased by 57.12%and 64.59%, respectively (P<0.05). After cell treatment for 48 h, the cell migration rates were 23.23%and 12.87%, which were significantly lower compared with the control group (75.86%;P<0.05). After the cells were treated with 45 mg·L-1 of DADS for 24 and 48 h, the expression of Rac1, Rock1, PAK1, LIMK1, and destrin mRNA respectively decreased compared with the control group (P<0.05). However, no significant difference was observed in the expression of cofilin1 mRNA (P>0.05). After the treatment with 45 mg·L-1 of DADS for 6, 12, 24, and 48 h, the expression of Rac1, Rock1, PAK1, LIMK1, and Destrin proteins respectively decreased in a time-dependent manner compared with the control group (P<0.05). However, no significant differences were observed in the expression of the cofilin1 protein (P>0.05). Moreover, the expression of p-LIMK1 and p-cofilin1 notably decreased in a time-dependent manner (P<0.05). Conclusion:DADS inhibits cell migration and invasion, which is related to the down-regulation of Rac1, Rock1, PAK1, LIMK1, p-LIMK1, p-cofilin1, and destrin through the Rac1-ADF/cofilin1 pathway.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the in vitro proliferation of CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of the chronic myelocytic leukemia patients and the inhibitory effect on CD4(+)CD25(-) T cells.

METHODSMagnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS) was used to separate CD4(+)CD25(+) T and CD4(+)CD25(-) T cells from the PBMCs of patients with chronic myelocytic leukemia, and the purity and activity of CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells were analyzed with flow cytometry. After stimulation with anti-CD3 mAb, anti-CD28 mAb and recombinant human interleukin-2 (rhIL-2), the CD4(+)CD25(-) and CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells were cocultured to observe the inhibitory effect of CD4(+)CD25(+)T on CD4(+)CD25(-)T cells using MTT assay.

RESULTSAfter cell sorting, the purity of CD4(+)CD25(+)T cells from healthy control and chronic myelocytic leukemia patients were (84.93-/+2.55)% and (86.32-/+2.40)%, respectively, showing no significant difference between them (P>0.05). The activity of CD4(+)CD25(+) and CD4(+)CD25(-) T cells from healthy control and the leukemic patients was also comparable [(98.12-/+0.68)% vs (97.33-/+0.78)%, P>0.05). In the coculture, CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells obviously inhibited CD4(+)CD25(-) T cell proliferation in vitro, and the maximum inhibition occurred when CD4(+)CD25(+)T cells were cocultured with CD4(+)CD25(-)T cells at the ratio of 1:1.

CONCLUSIONThe MACS system can effectively isolate CD4(+)CD25(+) and CD4(+)CD25(-) T cells. CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells obviously inhibit the proliferation of CD4(+)CD25(-)T cells in vitro, and the effect displays an effector-target ratio relationship.
