Objective To investigate the role and prognostic impact of E-cadherin( E-cad)on in-vasion and metastasis of gastric carcinoma by analyzing E-cadherin expression at DNA,RNA and protein levels. Methods RNA and protein expression of E-cad were tested in 60 cases of gastric carcinoma and adjacent tissues by streptavidin peroxidase( SP )immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization. DNA methylation of E-cad was tested with methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction( MSP). Results The positive rates of E-cadherin protein and mRNA in gastric carcinoma were significantly lower than those in adjacent tissues. DNA methylation of E-cad negatively correlated with the E-cad protein and RNA expres-sion in gastric carcinoma respectively(r= -0. 355,r = -0. 271). DNA methylation of E-cad negatively correlated with the 5-year survival rate of gastric carcinoma(r = -0. 381,P ﹤0. 01). However,E-cad protein positively correlated with the 5-year survival rate of gastric carcinoma(r=0. 378,P﹤0. 01). Con-clusion The decreased expression of E-cad is one of the most important biological features in gastric car-cinoma. Methylation of E-cad DNA may be an important agent causing low expression of E-cad protein and mRNA and it can be used as an important indicator in predicting invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer.

OBJECTIVETo observe the clinical efficacy on constipation predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-C) treated with acupuncture for regulating the mind and strengthening the spleen and the impacts on the quality of life in the patients.
METHODSSixty patients of IBS-C were randomized into two groups. In the acupuncture group (30 cases), acupuncture was applied to Tianshu (ST 25), Zusanli (ST 36), Shangjuxu (ST 37), Taichong (LR 3), Sanyinjiao (SP 6), Yintang (GV 29) and Baihui (GV 20), once a day, 5 treatments a week and 4 weeks treatment as one session. In the western medication group (30 cases), lactulose oral solution was prescribed, 15 mL each time, three times a day, 4 weeks treatment as one session. The symptom grade scale and the quality of life scale (IBS-QOL) were adopted to observe the changes in clinical symptoms and quality of life before treatment, after treatment and 2-month follow-up after treatment in the patients of the two groups separately.
RESULTS(1) Clinical symptom score: the difference in the symptom score at each time point was significant statistically in intra-group comparison (P < 0.01). In 1 week, 4 weeks of treatment and 2 months after treatment, the clinical symptom scores in the acupuncture group were lower than those in the western medication group (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). (2) IBS-QOL score after treatment was improved as compared with that before treatment in the two groups (P < 0.01). The improvement of IBS-QOL at 2 months after treatment in the acupuncture group was apparently superior to the western medication group (P < 0.05). (3) The total effective rate was 90.0% (27/30) in the acupuncture group and was 83.3% (25/30) in the western medication group. The overall efficacy in the acupuncture group was better than that in the western medication group (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONAcupuncture for regulating the mind and strengthening the spleen significantly relieves the clinical symptoms of IBS-C and improves QOL of patients. The total efficacy is superior to lactulose oral solution and presents a certain of long-term efficacy.
