Liver transplantation is an essential treatment of primary liver cancer,but the postoperative high risk of recurrence and metastasis has seriously affected the effect of liver transplantation.With the development of molecular biology,researchers have found numerous molec-ular markers potentially related to the recurrence and metastasis of liver cancer after liver transplantation.These markers,including genes, proteins,tumor markers,and serum viruses,are summarized,and their predictive values for tumor recurrence and metastasis after liver transplantation are analyzed.A growing number of molecular markers have been found,but which is not enough for clinical guidance.There-fore,more studies are needed to identify appropriate molecular markers of tumor recurrence and metastasis after liver transplantation.

Objective:In 2003,a survey of the manpower of pediatric dentists was made in China in order to provide basis for database. Methods:Questionnaires were distributed to dentists presenced the 5th conference of pediatric dentistry in China,and 139 available answers were analysis. Results:In those 139 pediatric dentists, with a mean age of 38.2?8.7,females were significantly more than males, and 89.9% dentists had bachelor, master or doctor degree. Significant relations were found between self-estimate ability of dentists and their length of work, degree, character of clinic.Conclusion:To date, the team of pediatric dentists begins to take shape, the structure of age and education are rational, but the number of them is insufficient and it is necessary to improve the basic and continuing education.

To build the Dendrobium nobile -T2DM network, and elucidate the molecular mechanism of D. nobile to type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Collect the chemical composition of D. nobile and the targets on T2DM by retrieving database and documents, build the network of D. nobile to T2DM using the entity grammar systems inference rules. The molecular mechanism of D. nobile to T2DM includes: (1) regulating lipid metabolism by lowering triglyceride; (2) reducing insulin resistance; (3) protecting islet cells; (4) promoting the glucose-dependent insulin tropic peptide (GIP) secretion; (5) inhibiting calcium channel. Under the guidance of network pharmacology, through entity grammar systems inference rules we elucidate the molecular mechanism of D. nobile to T2DM, and provide the basis for the further development of health care products based on D. nobile.

Objective To investigate the effect of CXCL16 on the development of murine collageninduced arthritis (CIA). Methods CXCL16 mRNA of the involved synovium and serum CXCL16 protein were determined respectively by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in murine collagen-induced arthritis. The proliferation of lymphocytes from murine spleen and the level of RANKL mRNA, stimulated by CXCL16 at different concentrations (0,100, 200, 400, 800 ng/ml), was detected respectively by CCK-8 and RT-PCR, then the level of IL-2 and IFN-γ in culture supernatant was detected by ELISA. Comparisons between groups were tested by t test and one-way ANOVA analysis. Results The serum CXCL16 [(127± 10) vs (72±8) pg/ml, P＜0.05] and synovial CXCL16 mRNA (0.214±0.007 vs 0.375±0.009, P＜0.01) in CIA were all significantly higher than those in normal controls. The proliferation of CXCL16 (200, 400, 800 ng/ml) in CIA mouse lymphocytes, was significantly higher than that of CXCL16 (0 ng/ml) (0.51±0.06, 0.56±0.05, 0.55±0.04, (0.41±0.04, P＜0.05). And CXCL16 on the CIA stimulated lymphocyte proliferation was significantly higher than controls on normal lymphocytes (P＜0.05). Compared with blank control group, the expression of IL-2, IFN-γ and RANKL mRNA of CIA CXCL16 (400, 800 ng/ml) groups was higher significantly (P＜0.01). Conclusion CXCL16 plays an important role in the development of murine CIA by activating lymphocytes.

Objective To explore the correlation between the change of hypoxic in microenvironment and the genesis of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in gastric adenocarcinoma.Methods After human gastric adenocarcinomn BGC-823 cells treated with different concentration of CoCl2 (0,100,200,300,400 μmol/L)for four hours,the expression levels of hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α)were detected by Western blot to select the optimal concentration.A total of 40 BALB/c mice were divided into two equal groups,named hypoxic group and normoxic group.Optimal concentration of CoCl2 treated BGC-823 gastric cancer cells and non hypoxic induced BGC 823 gastric cancer cells were injected through the tail vein.After three days blood samples were collected through the angular vein.CTCs were enriched by density gradient centrifugation,identified with cytokeratin19 (CK19) antibody marker by cell immunofluorescence and cell number was counted.Statistical significace test were performed by analysis of variance and Dunnett-T test.Results The expression of HIF-1α reached a maximun of 1.40±-0.16 when BGC-823 cells were treated with 200 μmol/L CoCl2 for four hours.The number of CTCs in hypoxic group was higher than that of normoxic group ((4.70± 1.72)/high power field (HPF) vs (1.15±0.56)/HPF,Z=-4.824,P＜0.01).Conclusion Hypoxic microenvironment might promote the genesis of CTC in gastric adenocarcinoma.

Objective: To detect circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in patients with gastric cancer and evaluate the relationship among CTCs, clinico-pathological characteristics, and prognosis of gastric cancer. Methods: Peripheral blood samples (10 mL in EDTA) were obtained from 45 patients with gastric cancer. CTCs were detected using density-gradient centrifugation and immunofluo-rescence staining. The clinical significance of the two methods were also compared and investigated. Results:CTC-positive case was defined by the presence of at least one CK19 (+)-CTC per 10 mL of the sample. CTCs were found in 27 of the 45 patients with gastric cancer. The presence of CTCs was significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis, and recurrence (P=0.007, 0.035, 0.035, respectively). However, CTCs were not significantly correlated with sex, age, tumor location, TNM staging, and tumor differentiation (P>0.05). Conclusion:CTCs were associated with poor prognosis of gastric cancer.

Objective To investigate the effect of dual antiplatelet drugs on the intestinal damage in rats. Meth-ods Eighty SD rats were randomly allocated into four groups:control group (normal saline, n=20), aspirin group (10.41 mg/kg, n=20), clopidogrel group (7.81 mg/kg, n=20) and clopidogrel combined aspirin group (n=20). Each group was given intra-gastric administration of drugs once per day for 14 days. All rats received operation after the final intragastric administration. The intestinal injury was observed. The jejunal fluid was taken for bacterial culture. The intestinal permeability was detected by ethidium bromide (EB) method. The small intestinal mucosal injury was estimated by Chiu method. Results The differ-ent degrees of small intestinal mucosal injury were found in four groups. The scores of pathological lesions were significantly higher in aspirin group, clopidogrel group and clopidogrel combined aspirin group than those of control group (P<0.05). The dual antiplatelet group showed the highest score (3.450±1.356). The small intestinal permeability was significantly increased in experiment groups compared with that of control group (54.012±3.513μg/g, P<0.05). There was a significantly higher small intestinal permeability in dual antiplatelet group than that of aspirin group and clopidogrel group (μg/g:130.533 ± 29.631 vs 90.965±3.765 vs 66.800±4.853, P<0.001). The total jejunal bacteria was significantly increased in dual antiplate-let group than that of control group (CFU/mL:61924.805±1751.159 vs 18154.280±1153.376, P<0.001). The ratio of entero-bacterium and enterococcus was significantly decreased in dual antiplatelet group compared with that of control group (0.220±0.089 vs 1.007±0.148, P<0.001). Conclusion The routine dose of dual antiplatelet drug aggravates the small intes-tinal injury in rats compared with that of single drug. The manifestations of intestinal mucosal injury include increased intes-tinal bacteria, dysbacteriosis, and increased small intestinal permeability.
