Objective To introduce the techniques and specification of complete-block radical gastrectomy, and to compare with traditional radical gastrectomy in the operative time, surgical costs and postoperative complications. Methods Thirty gastric cancer patients meet the criteria were randomly divided into 2 groups. Group A: complete-block radical gastrectomy;group B: radical gastrectomy. Analysis and comparison were made on tumor site, time consuming of block, the proportion of gastrointestinal reconstruction, operative time, cost of block, pathological TNM stage, length of stay, postoperative complications and postoperative chemotherapy. Results Group A has longer operative time than group B (P<0.05). However, there was no significant statistical difference in the other indicators between these 2 groups. Conclusions Complete-block technology can separate cancer more completely during operation with the advantage of simplicity, low-cost, little effect on the subsequent operation. The incidence of postoperative complications and length of stay with the traditional surgery there was no significant difference.

Objective To explore the specific role of autophagy and ubiquitin-proteasome pathway in apoptosis, specific protease inhibitor and (or) macroautophagy inhibitors.Methods The stimulators were selected to work on the pheochromocytoma (PC12) cell lines transfected with human mutant α-synuclein (A53T).Cell activity and apeptosis rate were detected by MTT law and flow cytometry.NO energy, heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) and Caspase-3 expression were determined in cell culture.Results A53T cell survival rate significantly decreased 24 hours after handling with the protease inhibitor (100 nmol/L) and (or) autophagy inhibitors 3-MA (10 mmol/L, A =0.23±0.01,0.19±0.01 and 0.17±0.01 respectively; P <0.05) compared with the control group (A =0.32±0.06).Cell survival rate was significantly higher than the other drug group after 24 hours handling with autophagy stimulators (A =0.44±0.08).Compared with the control group or autophagy stimulator of rapamycin (0.2 μg/ml) group (1.55%±1.15%), A53T cells apeptosis percentage rate was significantly higher after treated with proteasome inhibitor and macroautophagy inhibitors 24 hours (4.74%±0.91%, 4.59%±1.18% and 5.40%±1.75%respectively, P <0.05); and a slight decrease with stimulators.Protein Hsp70 and NO were significantly higher in proteasome inhibitor groups than the control group.But in antophagy inhibitor and stimulator group, NO and Hsp70 protein was similar to the control group.Conclusion The inhibition of macroautophagy and proteasome can promote apoptosis.Inhibiting or stimulating autophagy has less impact on Hsp70 and NO than proteasome pathway.

Objective To observe the effect of resveratrol on the apoptosis and expressions of bal-2 and bax protein in articular chondrecytes of rabbits experimental osteoarthritis (OA) model,and further explore the mechanisms of resveratrol in the treatment of OA.Methods Thirty Newzealand rabbits were randomly divided into 5 groups：group A (normal control group),group B (model control group),group C (resveratrol intervention high dosage group),group D(resveratrol intervention middle dosage group),group E (resveratrel intervention low dosage group).The model of OA was established with Hulth's modeling method in group B,C,D,E.Four weeks later,groups A and B received intragastric administration of distilled water containing 0.1% DMSO daily and group C,D,E received intragastric administration of resveratrol solution daily (concentration was 60 mg/ml) in different dosages for 6 weeks.Daily dosages of group C,D,E were 120,60,30 mg·kg-1·d-1,respectively.Then the rabbits were sacrificed and the cartilage sections of right femoral medial condyle were analyzed by immunohistochemistry for bcl-2 and bax,TUNEL for apoptosis.Results ① The apoptosis rates of chondrocytes in group B,C,D,E were significantly higher than those in group A (P＜0.01).The apoptosis rates of chandrocytes in group C,D,E were decreased compared with those in group B (P＜0.05).②The positive rates of bcl-2 and bax expression in chondrocytes in group B were significantly higher than those in group A (P＜0.01),but the ratio of the positive rate of bcl-2 expression to that of bax in group B was lower than that in group A (P＜0.01).The positive rates of bcl-2 expression in chondrocytes in group C,D,E were much higher compared with those in group B (P＜0.01).The positive rotes of bax expression in chondrocytes in group C,D,E were lower compared with those in group B (P＜0.01).The ratio of the positive rate of bcl-2 expression to that of bax was increased in group C,D,E compared with group B (P＜0.01).Conclusion Resveratrol can suppress the excessive apoptosis of chondrocytes in experimental OA by up-regulating the expression of bcl-2 while down-regulating the expression of bax and improving the ratio of bcl-2 to bax .Suppressing the excessive apoptosis of chondrocytes in experimental OA may be one of the mechanisms for resveratroi's effect in the treatment of osteoarthritis.

Objective To study the clinical significance and diagnostic value of anti-proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) antibodies.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted for the diagnoses and clinical features of 102 patients with anti-PCNA antibodies.Line immunoassay was used to detect anti-PCNA antibody of 536 systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients.Possible relationship between anti-PCNA anti-body and clinical features and other antibodies in SLE were analyzed.Comparisons between groups were performed by t-test or x2 test.Results In the 102 patients with anti-PCNA antibodies,49 had SLE (48.0％).Other disorders associated with anti-PCNA antibodies included primary Sj(o)gren's syndrome(24.5％),systemic sclerosis (12.7％),primary biliary cirrhosis (3.9％),auto-immune thyroiditis (6.9％),polymyositis/dermatomyositis (2.0％) and hepatitis C virus infection (1.0％).9.1％ of SLE patients showed positive anti-PCNA antibody.Compared with those SLE patients with negative anti-PCNA antibody,the occurrences of rash,neuropsychiatric SLE,renal involvement was significantly higher in the anti-PCNA positive patients.In addition,the SLEDAI score was significantly higher in the latter.The positive rates of anti-Rib-P,anti-dsDNA,anti-Ro52,anti-RNP/Sm were higher in patients of SLE with positive anti-PCNA antibody.Conclusion Sera anti-PCNA antibody is not specific for SLE and it is associated with the occurrences of rash,Raynaud's phenomenon,neuropsychiatric SLE,renal involvement and positive rates of anti-Rib-P,anti-dsDNA,antiRo52,anti-RNP/Sm.In addition,anti-PCNA antibody is associa-ted with the disease activity of SLE.

When the glomerular mesangial cells of rats were cultured in vitro at high glucose concentration,the activity of extraeellular signal-regulated kinase(ERK),the expression of transforming growth factor-?_1(TGF-?_1)mRNA and the content of typeⅣcollagen in the supematant were higher than those at normal glucose concentration.These effects were inhibited by fluvastatin.The results showed that the activation of ERK signal transduction pathways appeared to play a role in the onset and progression of diabetic nephropathy. Furthermore,fluvastatin could protect the kidney by inhibiting ERK signal transduction pathway and TGF-?_1 expression.

OBJECTIVETo investigate HBV mutations in reverse transcriptase (RT) gene and precore/basal core promoter (PC/BCP) regions in a chronic hepatitis B patient and to analyze the link between the mutations and drug resistance or HBeAg sero-conversion.

METHODSEighteen serum samples were collected from a chronic hepatitis B patient during his 14 hospitalizations from June 2002 to September 2007. HBV DNA was extracted and nested PCR was employed for amplification of target gene fragments. Direct sequencing of PCR products was performed followed by analysis with NTI software. The significance of the results was analyzed in combination with the clinical data of the patient.

RESULTSSeveral mutations were identified in succession, including LAM-resistant mutations M204I/V and L180M+M204V, ETV-resistant mutation S202G, and HBeAg nonsense mutation G1896A. The results were in accordance with the disease progression of the patient.

CONCLUSIONSequencing of HBV RT and PC/BCP regions is valuable for comprehensively checking the viral mutations and thus it is helpful in the surveillance of patients in clinics as a way for adopting reasonable antiviral therapy.
