Objective To investigate the significances of telomerase activity and P53 expression in Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods The activity of telomerase in cancerous tissues was detected by PCR-ELISA, and the expression of P53 protein was detected by S-P method. Results The telomerase activity and P53 expression were significantly higher in NSCLC tissues than in normal lung tissues. The telomerase activity and P53 expression had close association with the differentiation of cancer cells and lymph node metastasis. Conclusion It is very valuable to measure telomerase activity and P53 expression in studying the initiation and progression of NSCLC.

Objective To assess isehemic myocardial regional function of different coronary atherosclerosis using velocity vector imaging(VVI).Methods Two-dimensional images of apical four-,two-chamber and long-axis view were obtained in 50 patients with coronary artery disease.All segments of the left ventricle were divided into 5 groups:group 0 with no coronary artery stenosis,group 1 with stenosis<50%,group 2 with stenosis 50%to 74%,group 3 with stenosis 75%to 99%and group 4 with a completely occluded coronary artery.The segmental myocardial systolic peak strain(ε),systolic strain rate(SRs),early diastolic strain rate(SRe),late diastolic strain rate(SRa)and their ratio(SRe/SRa)were analyzed with VVI offline software.Results①Compared with group 0,SRe and SRe/SRa of group 1,SRs,SRe,SRe/SRa of group 2~4,εof group 2 and group 4 decreased significantly(P<0.05).②In the comparison of four ischemic groups,ε,SRe,SRa of group 3 were markedly higher than those of group 2,while ε,SRs,SRa of group 2 were lower than those of group 1(P<0.05);for group 4,ε,SRs,SRe were lower than those of group 1,SRe was lower than that of group 2,and ε,SRs,SRe were lower than those of group 3(P<0.05).ConclusionsIn the process of coronary atherosclerosis,myocardial diastolic and systolic dysfunction occurred early and orderly,and has a bidirectional change:decreased firstly,then increased and decreased at last.

Objective To explore the value of Gd-EOB-DTPA enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the quantitative evaluation of liver function.Methods Between June 2012 and June 2013,we prospectively included 8 patients with cirrhosis and 6 patients with primary hepatic carcinoma (PHC).The Child-Pugh classification,indocyanine green retention rate at 15 minutes (ICGR15),and Primovist enhanced MR imaging were performed in all the patients.Using the deconvolution method to calculate hepatic extraction fraction (HEF),the correlations between HEF and Child-Pugh and ICGR15 were analyzed.Results For cirrhosis,there was a significant correlation between the HEF and the ICGR15 by the Pearson correlation coefficient (r =-0.971,P < 0.05).For hepatocarcinoma,there was also a significant correlation (r =-0.855,P < 0.05).The average HEF of PHC was 21.80% (14.89% ~ 35.90%).Conclusions The Gd-EOB-DTPA enhanced MRI accurately evaluated liver function quantitatively.It may be used for patients with PHC for preoperative examination.

Objective To study the effect of p38MAPK on the activity and c-myc protein expression in rat acetaldehyde-induced hepatic stellate cell(HSC),and to investigate the alcoholic liver fibrosis related mechanism.Methods The different concentrations of SB203580 as the p38 specific blocker was adopted to conduct the intervention on rat acetaldehyde-induced HSC.The cellular mor-phological change was observed by the microscope.The cell proliferation was detected by MTT,the cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry(FCM),and the expression of c-myc protein was examined by the SABC method.Results (1)after acetaldehyde stimula-tion,HSC was increased in size and proliferated rapidly,but with the added SB203580 concentration increase,the cellular prolifera-tion was slowed down,the cells size was diminished and the deformed cells were increased.(2)The proliferation of acetaldehyde-in-duced HSC was inhibited by different doses of SB203580,and the higher concentration has the more significant inhibiting effect.(3) With the SB203580 concentration increase,the cells at the phase G0 and G1 were increased,while the cells at the phase S were de-creased,at the same time the expression positive rate of c-myc protein was decreased.Conclusion Blocking p38MAPK pathway ac-tivity could inhibit the proliferation of acetaldehyde-induced HSC,which may be related to the down-regulation of C-myc protein ex-pression and blocking the DNA synthesis in cells entering from G0/G1 phase to S phase.
