Coronary atherosclerotic heart disease is the leading cause of death in the world of non-infectious diseases.High density lipoprotein ( HDL ) plays an important role in the progression of anti-atherosclerosis.Recent studies have found that HDL can carry microRNA, and the anti-inflammation function of endothelial cell is achieved by the transport of microRNA.The specific functions of different HDL subtypes in the anti-atherosclerosis have been gradually recognized.At the same time, a series of traditional HDL anti-atherosclerotic functions also have been newly discovered, such as reverse cholesterol transport, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and the protection of vascular endothelium.All of these advances provide a new basis for the clinical application of HDL.

Objective To evaluate the effects of endogenous NO on the chemosensitivity of human breast cancer cell. Methods MCF-7 cells were cultured as monolayer, incubated with cytokine IL-1β. The pro-duction of NO was detected by NO assay. The expression of iNOS protein was measured by Western blotting. Establishing control group and experimental group, the chemosensitivity of MCF-7 cells incubated by L-NMMA and L-Arg to ADM and 5-Fu was studied by MTT assay. Results There was a positive correlation of dose-dependence between NO production and IL-1β concentration. MCF-7 cells expressed plenty of iNOS by induetion of IL-1β. There was no significant difference on iNOS whether L-NMMA and L-Arg existed or not. Incubating MCF-7 cells with 0. 5 μmol/L or 1 μmol/L ADM, the survival rate of experiment group was remarkablely decreased(P < 0.05) ; L-NMMA significantly increased survival rate of experiment group(P < O. 05) ; L-Arg decreased survival rate of experiment group(P < 0.05). Conclusion The induction of IL-113 in MCF-7 cells can increase the production of endogenous NO, which increases MCF-7 cells' sensitivity to chemotherapy.

Objective To explore the value of preoperative diagnosis for breast cancer patients in different locating ways. Methods The tissues were gotten by core needle biopsy from 146 breast cancer patients through different locating ways,and were taken for histopathological examinations and were compared with postoperative pathologic results. Results Seventy-four cases were biopsied with ultrasound-guide (ultrasound-guide group), and 72 cases with free-hand (free-hand group), without serious complications.Compared with postoperative pathologic results,the false negative rate in ultrasound-guide group was 5.41%(4/74);the false negative rate in free-hand group was 18.06% (13/72). The accuracy of the ultrasound-guided biopsy was higher than that in free-hand (U = 13.63,P ＜ 0.01 ). Conclusions Preoperative ultrasoundguided biopsy and postoperative pathologic examination has no significant difference, with high consistency.The study provides a good basis for selection for clinical work,so as to the more effective guide for the comprehensive treatment of breast cancer patients.

Objective To investigate the changes of extraceUular regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) phosphorylation and assess the effects of blocking the ERK1/2 phosphorylation on rats with acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP). Methods The ANP model was induced by retrograde injection of 5% sodium tanrocholate into the biliary and pancreatic duct. 5 rats were treated as normal control. Other 75 Sprague-Dawley (SD) rots were randomly divided into sham operations(SO) group (n =25), ANP group (n =25) and PD98059 group (n =25). The rats were sacrificed at 15 min, 30 min, 1 h, 3 h and 6 h after ANP induction, the blood and pancreatic sample were taken. Pathological changes of pancreas were observed with light microscope and scored. The serum level of TNF-α and IL-1β was determined by ELISA. MPO activities in pancreas were measured by enzyme chemistry assay. Western blotting was performed to determine the phosphorylations of ERK1/2 in the pancreas homogenates. Results There was no significant pathologic changes in rats of SO group;but significant injuries occurred in ANP group, the pathologic score at 3 h was 9.9 ± 0.4;the extent of injuries attenuated in PD98059 group, the pathologic score at 3 h was 4.0 ± 0.4 (P < 0.05). The serum levels of TNF-α at 3 h in SO, ANP and PD98059 groups were (65.8 ± 20.5) pg/ml, (286.5 ± 50.3) pg/ml, (180.4±32.9)pg/ml, respectively;the serum levels of IL-1β at 3 h in SO, ANP and PD98059groups were (85.8 ± 25.5) pg/ml, (293.8 ± 46.3) pg/ml, (200. 5 ± 33.6) pg/ml, respectively;MPOactivities in pancreas were (0. 19 ± 0.02)U/g, (0.61±0.05)U/g, (0.52±0.03) U/g, and the values in ANP and PD98059 groups were significantly higher than those in SO group, while the values in PD98059 group were significantly lower than those in ANP group (P < 0.01). The expression of ERK1/2 phosphorylation in normal pancreas was 1100 ± 141, the expressions of ERK1/2 phosphorylation in ANP group at 15 min, 30 min were 5300 ± 486, 5621 ± 384, respectively;the expressions began to decrease 1 h later and returned the similar level as SO group at 6 h;the expressions of ERK1/2 phosphorylation in PD98059 group at 15 min, 30 rain were 4200 ± 370, 3600 ± 290, respectively;which were signifieanfly lower than those in ANP group (all P value < 0. 01). Conclusions The ERK1/2 signal transduetion pathway plays an important role in the pathogenesis of ANP. Inhibition of ERK1/2 phosphorylation by PD98059 may decrease the production of IL-1β, TNF-α and pancreatic MPO, attenuate the extent of pancreatic pathologic injuries.
