Objective To evaluate the efficacy of laparuseopic and open D_2 radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer. Methods From January 2008 to February 2009, 64 gastric cancer patients received laparoscopic radical gastrectomy (LAP group) and 60 gastric cancer patients received open gastrectomy (open group) at Changzhou No. 2 People's Hospital. Clinical parameters including operation time, blood loss, resection margin of gastric cancer, number of lymph nodes dissected, time for passage of flatus, time for out-of-bed activity, hospital stay and postoperative complications in the 2 groups were analyzed via t test and chi-square test. Results Gastrectomy was successfully performed on all patients. Mean operation time in LAP group was significantly longer than open group (t=5.56, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the length of resection margin and number of lymph nodes dissected between the 2 groups (t=0.67, 0.86, 1.09, P>0.05). The mean blood loss, time for passage of flatus, time for out-of-bed activity and hospital stay in LAP group were significantly lesser than in open group (t=4.59, 5.56, 16.39, 4.79, P<0.05). Six patients in LAP group and 5 patients in open group had compli-cations postoperatively. All patients were followed up for 1-13 months, and no recurrence or death occurred. Conclusion Laparoscopic D_2 radical gastrectomy is safe and effective for gastric cancer.

Objective To investigate the effect of deltaNp63(ΔNp63) silencing on the proliferation of pancreatic cancer PANC1 cells.Methods ΔNp63 mRNA level in 23 pairs of pancreatic cancer and adjacent tissue specimen was detected by real-time PCR, andΔNp63 protein in human normal pancreatic ductal cell line HPDE6-C7 and pancreatic cancer cell line PANC1, CFPAC1 and BXPC3 was detected by Western blot. PANC1 cells were transfectedΔNp63 specific siRNA (ΔNp63-siRNA ) and scramble siRNA ( Con-siRNA ) using liposome, and untransfected cells served as control.ΔNp63 mRNA and protein was detected by real-time PCR and Western blot to validate the silencing ofΔNp63 expression.MTT assay and BrdU method were used to detect the proliferation and DNA synthesis of transfected PANC1 cells.Results TheΔNp63 mRNA expression in pancreatic cancer tissues and matched adjacent normal tissues was 0.99 ± 0.07 and 0.70 ±0.07, respectively.ΔNp63 mRNA expression in pancreatic cancer tissue was significantly up-regulated compared with that in the normal tissue (P=0.0034).TheΔNp63 protein expression in HPDE6-C7, PANC1, CFPAC-1 and BxPC3 cells was 0.97 ±0.09,3.06 ±0.16,2.57 ±0.11 and 2.45 ±0.08, respectively.TheΔNp63 protein level in pancreatic cancer cells were higher than that in HPDE6-C7 cells (P<0.001).ΔNp63 mRNA level in control, Con-siRNA and ΔNp63-siRNA group was 0.97 ±0.07,0.97 ±0.07 and 0.28 ±0.03, respectively, andΔNp63 protein expression level was 0.97 ±0.06,1.00 ±0.10 and 0.26 ±0.03.The expression ofΔNp63 mRNA and protein inΔNp63-siRNA group were significantly down-regulated comparing with those in Con-siRNA group (P<0.01).Significant inhibition on cell proliferation was observed in ΔNp63-siRNA group, which was statistically different from that in control and Con-siRNA group.The A490 value (DNA synthesis) of control, Con-siRNA andΔNp63-siRNA group was 0.55 ±0.04, 0.56 ±0.01 and 0.55 ±0.00 at 24 h after transfection, and 0.84 ±0.05,0.87 ±0.07 and 0.71 ±0.05 at 48 h after transfection.The DNA synthesis inΔNp63-siRNA group was significantly down-regulated compared with that in control and Con-siRNA group (P<0.05).Conclusions Knockdown ofΔNp63 could greatly inhibit the proliferation and DNA synthesis of pancreatic cancer PANC1 cells.

OBJECTIVE:To study the time-concentration curves of single dose of ambroxol hydrochloride orally integrating tablets in healthy volunteers and to evaluate its bioequivalence.METHODS:A single oral dose of 90mg ambroxol hydrochloride orally dissolving tablets and 90 mg ambroxol hydrochloride tablets were given to 18 healthy volunteers by a randomized crossover design.The concentrations of ambroxol hydrochloride in plasma were determined by HPLC.RESULTS:The main pharmacokinetic parameters of the test and references preparations of ambroxol hydrochloride were as follows:Cmax were(169.58?39.43)ng?mL-1 and(170.28?43.26)ng?mL-1;tmax were(1.6?0.5)h and(2.2?0.6)h;t1/2 were(6.77?2.04)h and(6.50?1.27)h;AUC0～24 were(1 131.26?289.36)ng?h?mL-1 and(1 191.54?270.17)ng?h?mL-1;AUC0～∞ were(1 215.27?306.56)ng?h?mL-1 and(1 281.44?291.51)ng?h?mL-1,respectively.The relative bioavailability of the test preparation was(95.5?15.6)%.CONCLUSION:The result demonstrated that the two preparatioins were bioequivalent in absorption degree,suggesting the rapid release characteristics of the preparation.

Electroacupuncture (EA) at Zhongliao (BL33) can improve the symptoms of overactive bladder (OAB),such as urinary frequency,urgency,and incontinence.However,its performance compared with other acupoints remains unclear.This study investigated the effects of EA at BL33 with deep needling on rats with OAB by detecting urodynamics in eight groups:no intervention group,D-BL33 group (deep needling at BL33),S-BL33 group (shallow needling at BL33),non-acupoint group (needling at the non-acupoint next to BL33),Weizhong (BL40) group,Sanyinjiao (SP6) group,Tongtian (BL7) group,and Hegu (LI4) group.Results revealed that EA at BL33 with deep needling,BL40,and SP6 prolonged the intercontraction interval (ICI) of rats with OAB (P=0.001,P =0.005,P =0.046,respectively,post-treatment vs.post-modeling).Furthermore,the change in ICI from post-modeling in the D-BL33 group was significantly greater than those of the no intervention and other EA groups (all P ＜ 0.01).Significantly shortened vesical micturition time (VMT) and elevated maximum detrusor pressure (MDP) were also observed in the D-BL33 group (P =0.017 and P =0.024,respectively,post-treatment vs.post-modeling).However,no statistically significant differences in the changes of VMT and MDP from postmodeling were observed between D-BL33 and the other EA groups.In conclusion,EA at BL33 with deep needling may inhibit acetic-acid-induced OAB more effectively.

Objective:To investigate the effects of Mor-platin, a novel mitochondrial platinum complex, on proliferation and migration of human hepatoma carcinoma HepG2 cells. Methods:Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay was used to analyze cell proliferation of Mor-platin and classic anticancer drugs, particularly cisplatin, in HepG2 cells. A laser confocal microscope was used to observe whether Mor-platin can target mitochondria. The morphological changes in cellular mitochondria after treatment with Mor-platin were ob-served on a transmission electron microscope. Cell apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry, and cell invasion was evaluated by three-dimensional tumor spheroid model. Results:Mor-platin can inhibit cell proliferation and is dose dependent. The half inhibitory concentration (IC50) of Mor-platin is lower than that of cisplatin. Laser confocal images showed that Mor-platin can target cell mito-chondria and enrich cell mitochondria. Transmission electron microscopy images showed that cell mitochondrial morphology changed after Mor-platin treatment. Furthermore, cell mitochondrial membrane is incomplete and mitochondrial cristae are reduced. Cell apoptosis caused by Mor-platin is dose dependent. The three-dimensional tumor spheroid model showed that the cell areas of the group subjected to Mor-platin treatment are smaller than those of the control group. Conclusion:Mor-platin can target cell mitochon-dria, change the cell mitochondrial morphology, inhibit cell proliferation, and thus promote cell apoptosis. It also showed better anti-cancer effects than cisplatin. Furthermore, Mor-platin can inhibit three-dimensional tumor spheroid invasion. These results suggest that Mor-platin is a potential antitumor drug.

One unusual human G3P[3] group A rotavirus (RVA) strain M2-102 was identified in stool sample collected from a child with diarrhea in Guangxi Province, China in 2014. It is well known that G3P[3] is a genotype commonly identified in feline and canine RVAs. However, the preliminary phylogenetic analyses of the VP7 and VP4 genes of strain M2-102 indicated that these two genes were closely related to bat RVA strain MYAS33 and simian strain RRV, respectively, whereas both clustered distantly to feline/canine-like RVA strains. In this study, full genome sequencing and molecular analyses were conducted to obtain the true origin of strain M2-102. It was revealed that strain RVA/Human-wt/CHN/M2-102/2014/G3P[3] exhibited a G3-P[3]-I3-R3-C3-M3-A9-N3-T3-E3-H6 genotype constellation for VP7-VP4-VP6-VP1-VP2-VP3-NSP1-NSP2-NSP3-NSP4-NSP5 genes. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that 5 genes (VP7, VP1, VP2, NSP2 and NSP3) from strain M2-102 were closely related to those of bat strain MYAS33 from Yunnan Province which was thought a true bat RVA strain rather than a virus transmitted between species, while another 5 genes (VP4, VP3, NSP1, NSP4 and NSP5) clustered closely with those of simian strain RRV, yet the VP6 gene was closely related to that of human G3P[9] strain AU-1 and AU-1-like RVAs. The epidemiological data indicated that the child infected with M2-102 came from a countryside village, located in Dong Autonomous County of Sanjiang (subtropical hilly wooded area), Liuzhou city in Guangxi Province which might provide natural environment for reassortment events occurring among animal and human RVAs. Therefore, the data suggest that human strain M2-102 might originate from multiple reassortment events among bat, simian and human AU-1-like RVAs, yet it is not clear whether the genomic backbone based on bat MYAS33 (5 genes) and simian RRV (5 genes) like rotaviruses had been obtained through reassortment before being transmitted to the human. This is the first report on whole genome analysis of human G3P[3] RVA from China.
