Objective To investigate the effect of congenital human cytomegalovirus(HCMV) infection on the growth of embryo and cerebral cortex. Methods HCMV (6.0 log TCID50 in 1.0 ml/mice) was separately injected into the intraperitoneum of 10-week-old female mice on pre-mating, 3, 7, 15 gestation days. Cerebral cortices of fetuses were collected by laparotomy on 19th gestation-day just before delivery. The specimens were fixed with 4% buffered solution of paraformal dehyde. And then sectioned and stained with HE. Meanwhile, part of the specimens was used for viral isolation and HCMV DNA test by PCR. Results In the cerebral cortex of fetal mice, it was found that the capillary was dilated and congested, and the parenchyma was infiltrated with neutrophils, monocyte for experimental group and not for control group. The degeneration, necrosis and apoptosis of neurons co-existed. The rates of virus isolation for the fetal cerebral cortex among pre-mating, 3-, 7-, 15-gestation-day groups were 60%、62%、67%、25%,respectively (χ2=13.475,P<0.05) and the rate for 15 gestation-day group was significantly lower than others. Average weight of experimental mice for 15-gestation-day was significantly lower than control group and those for other gestation groups were not significantly different on group t-test. Conclusion HCMV can replicate in the cerebral cortex of ICR mice, infect fetal and initiate congenital infection of cerebral cortex of fetus. In addition, embryo of different gestation stages can be infected by HCMV on experiment. HCMV delays embryo growth and causes the cerebral cortex damage.

Objective To investigate the relationship between Livin and Ki-67 proteins, and the expres-sion and clinical significance of Livin and Ki-67 proteins in cholangiocarcinoma. Methods Fifty-five samples of cholangiocarcinoma tissue were collected in Shengjing Hospital from January 2002 to December 2003. The expres-sion of Livin and Ki-67 proteins in the 55 samples of cholangiocarcinoma tissue and 12 samples of chronic cholan-gitis tissue were detected by immunohistochemical assay. The relationship between the expression of Livin and Ki-67 proteins and the clinicopathological parameters of cholangiocarcinoma was analyzed. The results were analyzed by Spearman rank correlation coefficient, chi-square test and t test. Results The positive expression rate of Livin protein in cholangiocarcinoma was 71% (39/55), which was significantly higher than 0 (0/12)in chronic cholan-girls tissue (χ2=20.361, P<0.01). The expression of Livin protein was influenced by the differentiation of cholangiocarcinoma and the lymph node metastasis (χ2=4.193, 4.245, P <0.05). The positive expression rate of Ki-67 protein was 96% (53/55) in cholangiocarcinoma. The label index of Ki-67 in patients in clinical stage Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ,Ⅳ,were 22%±16%, 33%±12%, 43%±15%, and 49%±10%, respectively. There was signifi-cant difference in the label index of Ki-67 between patients in clinical stage Ⅰ and those in clinical stages Ⅱ, Ⅲ,Ⅳ(t=2.307, 2.871, 3.957, P<0.05). The label index of Ki-67 was 43%±13 % in patients with local lymph node metastasis, and 34%±16% in patients without local lymph node metastasis, with statistical difference between the 2 groups (t=2.334, P<0.05). The expression of Livin protein in cholangiocarcinoma was positively correlated with the label index of Ki-67 (r=0.502, P<0.01). Conclusions Livin protein plays an important role in the pathogenesis and development of eholangiocarcinoma, and it also has correlation with the proliferating activity of cholangiocarcinoma cells. Combined detection of the expression of Livin and Ki-67 proteins may be helpful in judging the malignancy of cholangiocarcinoma and determining the prognosis of patients.

Circulating cell-free nucleic acids are defined as extracellular DNAs or RNAs in blood with physiological or pathological origins. Previous studies showed that the concentration of cell-free nucleic acids in the blood of cancer patients is significantly higher than in healthy people. Further studies showed that the genetic and epigenetic alterations of circulating cell-free nucleic acids are relevant to cancer development and progression, including mutation, hypermethylation, loss of heterozygosity, change of integrity, and abnormal expression of microRNAs. Detection of circulating cell-free nucleic acids shows promising potential in cancer screening, diagnosis, personalized treatment, and prognosis.

Objective To investigate the effects of three laparoscopic bariatric operations on relieving type 2 diabetes in morbid obese patients. Methods From 2005 to 2009, 15 morbid obese patients with type 2 diabetes received bariatric operations in Shengjing Hospital including lapband operation (7 cases) , sleeve gastrectomy (7 cases) and gastric bypass(4 cases). All patients were followed up for more than 1 year. Results All patients recovered without major complications. Body weight decreased and BMI was respectively (27. 6 ± 2. 0) kg/m2, ( 26. 9 ± 1. 4) kg/m2 and (27. 5 ± 3. 0) kg/m21 year after operation. The excess BMI loss in three groups were (76. 4% ± 6. 8% ) , (83. 7% ± 4. 6% ), (85. 7% ±9. 5% ) 1 year after operation. On the other side, the fasting glucose levels and glycohemoglobin in gastric bypass group were much lower than that in other two groups. Conclusion All these operations were effective in controling the weights and fasting glucose levels, while the gastric bypass method is better than other two methods in weight and serum glucose control. Sleeve gastrectomy was better in weight and glucose control than lap band operation.
