Apoptosis, a mechanism of cell physiological death, is a kind of autonomic and order death process sequence-controlled by gene. Cell Autophngy is a kind process of serf-degrade, by enwraping cytosol and organelles, fusing with the lysosome, finally degrading lumen. There is complex relation between apop-tosis and autophngy. Autophngy can protect cells against death during stress, but it can also mediate cellular demise, depending on the specific circumstances. Bcl-2 family plays an intercross role apeptosis and autoph-ngy. This review focuses on the current research progress of the role of Bcl-2 family in cell autophagy.

Aim To explore the role of prenatal exposure to lipopolysaccharides(LPS)on aortic morphology in the 6-week offspring rats.Methods Twelve pregnant rats were randomly divided into three groups: control group,LPS group,L+P(pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate,PDTC)group.The rats were intraperitoneally administered vehicle,LPS(0.79 mg·kg-1),or LPS plus PDTC(100 mg·kg-1).LPS was given on the 8th,10th and 12th day,where as vehicle and PDTC were given daily from the 8th to the 14th day during gestation.Offspring body weight was measured at 6-week,and histopathological alteration of the thoracic aorta was observed by transmission electron microscopy,the thoracic aorta mRNA and protein expression of connexin(Cx)molecules including Cx37,Cx40,Cx43 and Cx45 in offspring rats were detected by real time PCR,Western blot and confocal laser-scanning microscope.Results Body weight at 6-week offspring rats was significantly higher in LPS group than in control group whatever male or female(P<0.01);and that in L+P group was significantly lower than in LPS group in male rats(P<0.05),but not in female rats.The LPS group thoracic aortas exhibited lesions,including impaired endothelial cells,and the vascular smooth muscle cells were arranged disorder and migration and proliferation;the number of gap junction was increased and longer than control group;the pathological changes were improved to some extent in L+P group.Cx43 mRNA and protein expression in LPS group was obviously lower than in control group(P<0.05),which could be partly reversed in L+P group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in Cx37,Cx40 or Cx45 mRNA or protein expression among each group.The results of protein expression with confocal laser-scanning microscope was the same as those of Western blot.Conclusion Maternal LPS exposure during pregnancy leads to vascular changes in 6-week offspring rats,which might last until neonatal stage,and is closely correlated to hypertension in adult offsprings.

OBJECTIVE: To establish an HPLC method for the determination of fumaric acid in Pleurotm citrinopileatus. METHODS: HPLC was performed on Yilite C18 column(250 mm?4.6 mm,5 ?m) with methanol-0.01 mol?L-1 potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution(5 ∶ 95,pH adjusted to 2.5 using phosphoric acid) as mobile phase and detection wavelength of 216 nm. RESULTS: The linear range of fumaric acid was 0.16～1.6 ?g (r=0.999 9). The average recovery was 101.59% (RSD=1.28%,n=6). CONCLUSION: This method is accurate, simple and reproducible for the content determination of fumaric acid in P. citrinopileatus.

Objective To explore preliminarily the role of the E2 subunit of pymvate dehydrogenase (PDC-E2) modified by xenobiotics (e.g.2-octynic acid,2-OA) in the pathogenesis of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC).Methods Patients of PBC (102 cases),primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC,34 cases) and healthy controls (HC,50 cases) were selected.The anti-PDC-E2,anti-2-OA and anti-lipoic acid (LA) antibody in the peripheral blood of the 3 groups were tested by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).By inhibitive ELISA (iELISA),30 of the 102 PBC patients with anti-PDC-E2 antibody but without anti-2-OA antibody were selected to detect whether there was any new epitope on the PEC-E2 conjugated with 2-OA.The chi-square test and Fisher exact test were taken to analyze the enumeration data.The two-tailed unpaired t test with Welch's correction was used to compare the measurement data.Spearman rank correlation analysis was also employed for proper test.Results The positive rate of anti-PDC-E2,anti-LA and anti-2-OA antibody in PBC patients was 94.1％(96/102),73.5％(73/102) and 53.9％(55/102) respectively,all of which were statistically significantly higher than those in healthy controls group but were of no significant difference between PSC and healthy controls group.There was no significant relevance between the levels of Anti-LA and anti-2-OA antibody in the PBC group (r=-0.065,P=0.520).The iELISA results showed that the antibody,which only identified the epitopes on 2-OA-PDC-E2 induced by the 2-OA conjugation with PDC-E2,existed in 40％(12/30) of the PBC patients,and more interestingly,this antibody was predominantly appeared in PBC patients at their early clinical stage.Conclusion There are anti-LA antibody and anti-2-OA antibody in PBC patients,which have shown no significant association with each other.It is very likely that new antigenic conformational epitopes on PDC-E2 modified by 2-OA would emerge,which might led to the immune response in the individuals who are susceptible to PBC,and thus contribute for the breaking of PDC-E2 immune tolerance,and PBC occurrence finally.

Objective To characterize the clinical characteristics of lupus mesenteric vasculitis (LMV). Methods Analyzing the clinical, laboratory and treatment data of LMV patients hospitalized from 2002. 1.1 to 2007. 12. 31 retrospectively. Results (1) The three common manifestations were abdominal pain, diarrhea and vomit with the prevalence rate of 77%, 70% and 67% respectively. (2)The majority of LMV cases were active vital organ (28/30), kidney (24/30) and hematological system (18/30) were the main organs of involvement. Ten patients had hydroureteronephrosis, and 8 patients had intestinal pseudo-obstruction at the same time. (3) Systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index (SLEDAI) score was ≥10 in 80% (24/30) of patients. The progression of LMV was accompanied with new-onset ieucopenia or worsening leucopenia or hypocomplementemia in 10 cases. (4) Blood antinuclear antibodies were positive in 27 patients detected, and anti-SSA antibody was positive in 15 (56%), anti-U1RNP antibody was positive in 14 (52%). (5) Fourteen cases had bowel wall thickening with target sign or mesenteric vessels with palisade or comb sign in contrast CT scan of abdomen. (6)Twenty-seven cases were treated with orally or intravenous medium to high dose steroid therapy and recovered from LMV. Conclusions (1) Abdominal pain, diarrhea and vomit were frequent manifestations of LMV patients. (2) LMV was one of the serious complications of systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE), and usually accompanied by active SLE in other organs. (3) A drop in the white blood cell count or complement C3 titer might be correlate with the occurrence of LMV. It needs to further investigate the relationship between LMV and the high positive rate of anti-SSA and anti-U1RNP antibody. (4) LMV patients responded well to intravenous high dose methylprednisolone.

Objective To analyze serum 25(OH)D level and the influence factors in preterm infants. Methods The data of serum 25(OH)D level in preterm infants born from July 2012 to June 2014 were retrospectively analyzed along with gestational age, gender, parity, delivery mode, birth season, birth weight, age of the mother and pregnancy complications. Results Totally 325 cases were included and their average gestational age was 33.41±2.29 week, the ratio of male to female was 1.32?1 and average serum 25(OH)D level was 37.34±16.17 nmol/L. The incidence of vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency in preterm infants was 37.8% and 41.8% respectively. Serum 25 (OH) D levels in preterm infants born in summer and autumn were higher than those born in winter and spring, and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that birth season and the mother's age may be the risk factors that influence serum 25 (OH) D levels in preterm infants. Conclusion The incidence of vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency in preterm infants is high, and the factors affecting the level of vitamin D need to be further studied.

Objective To test the level of cell factor interleukin (IL)-21,CXCL13 in the plasma of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA),and to analyze the relationship between Follicular helper T cells(Tfh)and clinic features and discuss the possible immunological pathogenesis of RA.Methods The Tfh cells were obtained from patients and healthy controls (NC) and detected by Flow cytometery.While the levels of IL-21,CXCL13 in patients and NC were measured by ELISA tests.Those analysis were performed by student's t-test,one-way ANOVA,SNK-q test,Chi-square test,Spearman's correlation and multiple linear regression.Results The expression of CD4+CXCR5+ICOS+ cells (Tfh) in PBMCs of RA was significantly higher than normal controls (3.0±1.2 vs 1.1±0.4,P＜0.01).Meanwhile,the three RA groups of patients were divided to low,moderate and high disease activity groups,and the results showed that the expression of Tfh were increased accordingly (1.8±0.7,2.5±0.6,4.0±1.2).The expression of Tfh in the three groups were all significantly higher than that of controls (P＜0.01).There was a positive correlation between Tfh and DAS28,ESR,CRP,TJC,and bone erosion,RF and anti-CCP respectively.The expression of Tfh in those patients who had bone destruction was higher than those with no or mild bone destructions (2.7±1.1vs 3.4±1.3).The expression of Tfh in patients with un-treated RA patients,when compared to those RA patients who were treated appropriately and those who were not treated appropriately,was decreased significantly.The expression of Tfh in appropriately treated RA patients was lower than that without appropriately treatment.The level of IL-21,CXCL13 was decreased in patients with RA in the order of high,moderate,low disease activity and NC.Conclusion The expression of Tfh and the levels of IL-21,CXCL13 are increased significantly,and are closely related to disease activity and bone ersions.The expression of Tfh is decreased after relevant treatment.These results indicate that the abnormality of Tfh may play an important role in the pathogenesis of RA.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of endoscopic management of plastic stents of post-liver transplantation anastomotic biliary stricture. Methods From January 2010 to October 2015, clinical data of patients with post-liver transplantation anastomotic biliary stricture and received endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatog﹣raphy and plastic stents management was collected. The technical success rate, ERCP-related complications, clinical remission rate and long-term complications were main outcome measurements to compare the efficacy and safety of different number of stents in managing post-liver transplantation anastomotic biliary stricture. Results Among the 18 patients (0.5 ~ 60.0 months) with post-liver transplantation ABSs, seven patients received less plastic stents treat﹣ment (< 3 stents), nine patients with persistent anastomotic or recurrent stricture received multiple plastic stents treatment (≥ 3 stents), two patients received multiple plastic stents treatment once suffered with post-liver trans﹣plantation ABSs. The endoscopic technical success rate was seventy-six over eighty (95.0 %). Among the seven pa﹣tients received less plastic stents treatment, one loss to follow-up, two were still under treatment, one died of acute hepatic failure, one died of septic stock, one combined with biliary fistula resulted in treatment failure, one achieved clinical remission, the clinical remission rate was one third (33.3 %). Among the eleven patients received multiple plastic stents treatment, two loss to follow-up, one was still under treatment, two received surgery because of failed treatment, six achieved clinical remission, the clinical remission rate was 75.0 % (6/8). The average diameters and stent durations of management of 1 stent, 2 stents, 3 stents, 4 stents, 5 stents, 7 stents were 8.5 F, 17.0 F, 24.0 F, 28.0 F, 36.0 F, 50.0 F. Among the six early postoperative complications, five cases occurred in less stent manage﹣ment and one occurred in MPSs management, the early postoperative complication rate was 7.5 %(6/80). No severe ERCP-related complications and procedure-related deaths. Conclusions Endoscopic management of plastic stents is safe and effective for post-liver transplantation ABSs. Providing larger biliary support, the multiple plastic stents treatment was superior to less plastic stents treatment in view of clinical remission rate, especially for refractory one. Multiple plastic stents did not increase the incidence of complications, it could be used as the first-line treatment of post-liver transplantation duct-to-duct biliary anastomosis for its safety and effectivity.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of endoscopic ultrasonography(EUS) guided ethanol ablation in patients with insulinoma. Methods The data of 10 patients with insulinoma trea-ted at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from December 2013 to January 2015 were prospectively analyzed. Results The patients were given EUS-guided ethanol ablation with dose of 0. 10 to 2. 00 ml(average 0. 70 ± 0. 62 ml)in pancreatic lesions for 15 times. No complications were observed dur-ing and after the procedure. The blood glucose improved after the procedure[4. 8(3. 9-5. 5)mmol/ L VS 2. 4 (1. 9-2. 5)mmol/ L,P < 0. 05]and the serum insulin level significantly decreased[83. 7(40. 1-143. 5) pmol/ L VS 177. 3(66. 5-200. 6)pmol/ L,P<0. 05]. The average hospital stay was(4. 3±1. 5)days. The patients were followed up for 6-12 months. EUS indicated that the echo of pancreatic lesions changed from high to low. CE-EUS revealed low enhancement and lack of blood supply. Conclusion EUS-guided ethanol ablation may become a promising minimally invasive treatment for insulinoma because of its safety,efficacy and low price.
