The robust nuclear-cytoplasmic transport is vital for eukaryotes'life cycle.Not only proteins and RNAs are transferred to their destination by this system, the important cellular activities such as mitosis are also regulated by the transport pathways via adjusting the local concentrations of some critical cargoes.tRNA is one of the most important biomacromolecules in the cell, synthesized in nucleus, and taking part in protein synthesis in cytoplasm.It is a long-held belief that tRNA functions only as a key player in protein synthesis, and tRNA nuclear-cytoplasmic transport is a unidirectional movement from nucleus to cytoplasm.However, the recent discoveries are overturning the traditional opinions.Nuclear-born tRNA can be exported out of nucleus, while cytoplasmic-residing tRNA can also be retrogradely transport into nucleus.The new concept tRNA nuclear-cytoplasmic dynamics was coined in 2008 to describe the tRNA communication between nucleus and cytoplasm, which was found able to regulate protein synthesis and cell cycle in S.cerevisiae.The latest results in this field are going to change the landscape of eukaryotic tRNA biology.

Sixty cases of the patients sick with simple obesity complicated with hyperlipidemia were randomly divided into the magnetic acupuncture group and control group, to observe the improving situation in the indexes of obesity and blood lipid. In the moment the therapeutic effect in reducing body weight, magnetic acupuncture is obviously better in improving cholesterol (TC) in indexes of blood lipid than single acupuncture (P＜0.05).

Circulating tumor cells(CTCs)are essential for establishing metastasis and recurrence in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC). With the development of detection technique,results from recent studies suggest that CTC level could be a supplement for TNM staging system and a prediction marker of prognosis and therapeutic efficacy,and even could be applied for risk assessment of early NSCLC. Furthermore,as a non-invasiveliquid biopsy,detection of CTC can reflect the molecular biology and genetics characteristics of the primary tumor,and subsequently assist in selecting an optimal individualized treatment.

Packing the nose after septoplasty is common practice. The use of postoperative packing has been proposed to reduce the dead space between the subperichondrial flaps and minimize postoperative complications such as hemorrhage, septal hematoma, and formation of synechiae. Additionally, postoperative packing is thought to stabilize the remaining cartilaginous septum and minimize persistence or recurrence of septal deviation. Despite these theoretic advantages, evidence to support the use of postoperative packing is lacking. Additionally, nasal packing is not an innocuous procedure. The use of nasal packing actually cause these complications such as postop- erative pain, mucosal injury, bleeding, worsening of breathing due to sleep disorders, and postoperative infections. Routine use of anterior nasal packing after septoplasty should be challenged for not presenting proven benefit. As alternatives to traditional packing, septal suturing, septal stapler and fibrin glue have been used recently. The purpose of this article is to summarize the progress of traditional packing to no packing after septoplasty.

Secondary lymphoid tissue chemokine (CCL21) is a double-edged sword, which exerts antitumor, anti-infection immune response by binding to the receptor CCR7 on the surface of the multiple immune cells. However, a variety of tumor cells also express the receptor CCR7, the combination of CCL21 with CCR7promotes the invasion and metastasis of tumor cells, leading to the facilitation of tumor development. Therefore,exploring the mechanism(s) of tumor invasion and metastasis might be helpful for use of CCL21 as tumor gene therapy through blocking of CCL21's promotion of tumor invasion and metastasis.

Objective To investigate the effects of propofol on activation of NF-κB in polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) in rats with LPS-induced acute lung injury (ALI). Methods Sixty healthy SD rats of both sexes, aged 3 months, weighing 250-350 g, were randomly divided into 5 groups (n = 12 each):control group (group C), ALI group and 3 different dose of propofol groups (group P1, P2, P3). The animals were anesthetized with intraperitaneal 3% pentobarbital sodium 40 mg/kg. LPS 5 mg/kg was injected via femoral vein in group ALI.Propofol 5, 10 and 15 mg· kg- 1· h- 1 was infused intravenously over 2 h immeliately after injection of LPS 5 ng/kg through femoral vein in group P1, P2 and P3 respectivey. In group C normal saline 10 ml was injected via femoral vein instead. All rats were killed by exsanguination at the end of infusion of propofol. The right lung was removed for microscopic examination. The morphologic changes were scored 0-3 (0 = normal, 3 = severe morphologic changes). Blood samples were collected from carotid artery for determination of the expression of total NF-κB and activated NF-κB in PMNs by Western blot. Results Compared with group C, morphologic change scores and activated NF-κB expression in PMNs were significantly increased in group ALI, P1 and P2, and morphologic change scores increased in group P3. Morphologic change scores in group P1 and P2 and activated NF-κB expression in PMNs in group P1, P2 and P3 were significantly decreased compared with those in group ALl. Morphologic change scores and activated NF-κB expression in PMNs were decreased gradually in group P1, P2 and P3 . There was no significant difference in total NF-κB expression in PMNs among all groups. Conclusion Propofol can attenuate ALI induced by LPS through inhibition of the activation of NF-κB in PMNs in rats.

Objective To observe the effect of intravenous injection of different doses of propofol on the ceil apoptosis and NF-kB p65 in the acute lung injury(ALl)induced by LPS in rats.Method Sixty SD rats were randomly(random number)divided into five groups,namely,control(NS)group,Au model group and propofol intervention groups(P1,P2,P3 groups).The lung injury was evaluated by using microscopy with hematoxylin and eosin(HE)staining and arterial blood gas,and Western blotting Was applied to evaluating the nuclear translocation of NF-KB P65 in lung tissues.The apoptosis rate of lung tissue Was determined by flow cytometric analysis.Results Lung injury in model group reached the pathologic criteria of acute lung injury,and it was attenuated apparently in propofol intervention groups(P1,P2,P3 groups)in dose-dependent manner.Western blotting results showed that the nuclear translocation of NF-KB P65 and the apoptosis rate increased significantly in ALI model group compared with control group(P<0.05),and decreased in propofol intervention groups compared with ALl model group(P<0.05).Conclusions Propofol Can attenuate acute lung injury induced by LPS in rats,and significantly inhibit the nuclear translocation of NF-KB P65 and the cell apoptosis in lung tissues.The effect of propofol attenuating acute lung injury induced by LPS in rats may be attributed to the inhibition of nuclear translocation of NF-KB P65and ceil apoptosis in lung tissues.

Purpose Glioblastoma and metastasis are the common and aggressive type of brain tumors in adults,and a definitive diagnosis has an important guiding significance to the clinical practice.Our purpose is to investigate the value of post contrast-enhanced T1WI-based histogram analysis in the differential diagnosis of glioblastoma and solitary brain metastasis.Materials and Methods Sixty-eight consecutive patients with glioblastoma or solitary metastasis confirmed pathologically or surgically at Meizhou People's Hospital between January 2012 and November 2015 were included in the study.Glioblastoma was diagnosed in 34 patients and solitary brain metastasis was diagnosed in the rest 34 patients.All patients had undergone routine brain MR examination before surgical resection and the imaging data were retrospectively analyzed.The ROIs were manually placed in enhanced solid parts of the tumors on the maximal cross-sectional post contrasted-enhanced T1WI by Image J.Then the mean,standard deviation (SD),minimum,maximum,skewness and kurtosis were calculated respectively.Results Kurtosis of post contrast-enhanced T1WI of metastasis (1.260 ± 1.271) was statistically higher than that of glioblastoma (0.071 ± 0.667)(P＜0.05).When the optimal threshold criterion ofkurtosis was set at 0.736,the areas under ROC curve of kurtosis was 0.792 (95％ CI:0.676-0.881),and the sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value and negative predictive value at the optimum cutoff value were 76.47％,88.24％,80.65％,78.38％,respectively.Conclusion Kurtosis of post contrastenhanced T 1 WI-based histogram is valuable in differential diagnosis of glioblastoma and brain metastasis,and thus provides reliable and objective basis for differentiating the two kinds of tumors.
