Objective To investigate the expression and biological function of microRNA-34a (miR-34a) in bladder cancer.Methods Forty-two cases of bladder cancer specimen,including 17 noninvasive carcinoma and 25 muscle invasive carcinoma classified by UICC 2002 TNM,or 18 low-grade and 24 high-grade classified by WHO 1973.Meanwhile,mucosa adjacent to the carcinoma was selected as normal control.The gene expression of miR-34a was determined using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction in 42 cases of bladder carcinoma samples.Mature mimics of miR-34a were chemically synthesized and transiently transfected-intoT24 bladder cancer cells.The effects of miR-34a on apoptosis and proliferation in T24 cells were evaluatedby flow cytometry and MTS respectively.Results 61.9％ of carcinoma samples showed low expression of miR-34a,which was correlated with the malignancy and tumor size of bladder carcinoma.26.5％ (11 cases) was negative and 11.6％ (5 cases) showed high expression.Furthermore,upregulation of miR-34a in T24 cells contributed to cell growth and apoptosis.The apoptosis rate of T24 cells was (9.11 ± 0.41)％,which had significant difference compared with NC mimics and blank control group respectively (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion The relative low expression of miRNA-34a may be involved in the tumorigenesis and development of bladder carcinoma.

OBJECTIVETo discuss the influence of Suoquan capsule (SQJN) on the detrusor of D-galactose mimetic rats, and to explore the mechanism of reducing urine.

METHODInvestigate the enzymes (ATPase, SDH, SOD, MDA, Na+ -K+ -ATPase, Ca2+ - Mg2+ -ATPase) which influence the production and excretion of urine and the reactivity of urinary detrusor strips to different concentrations of ISO and ATP.

RESULTCompared with the model group, the activity of SOD, Na+ -K+ -ATPase, Ca2+ -Mg2+ -ATPase and SDH increased significantly in aging rats after administrating SQJN (P < 0.01); the complaisance and elasticity of bladder also increased (P < 0.05). The frequency of spontaneous contraction and the MDA decreased significantly (P < 0.05-0.01). The decreased relaxation response to ISO and increased contractile response to ATP were also changed after administrating SQJN.

CONCLUSIONSQJN can regulate the metabolism of fluid through recovering the normal physiologic function of the detrusor of bladder.

Objective To evaluate and compare the clinical efficacy and safety of intense pulsed light (IPL) versus 595-nm pulsed dye laser (PDL) for the treatment of post-acne erythema.Methods A randomized split-face clinical trial was conducted.A total of 20 patients with post-acne erythema were enrolled,and randomized to receive treatment with IPL on one half of the face and 595-nm PDL on the other facial side once every 4 weeks for 3 sessions.Digital photographs were taken using the VISIA,and erythema index was recorded before each treatment and one month after the last treatment.The severity of bilateral facial erythema was evaluated based on a 4-point grading scale before the first treatment and after the last treatment.Pain scores and adverse reactions were recorded using a visual analogue scale (VAS) after each treatment,and a patient satisfaction survey was conducted by questionnaire at the last follow-up.Results The mean erythema index on the IPL side before and after treatment was 472.25 ± 86.02 and 357.15 ±82.71 respectively,and that on the PDL side before and after treatment was 476.40 ± 74.25 and 360.05 ± 64.83 respectively.Repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed that the erythema indices on both treated sides significantly decreased over time (F =197.666,P ＜ 0.001),and the efficacy of IPL was better than that of PDL (F =1 173.909,P ＜ 0.001).Erythema severity grades on the IPL side as well as on the PDL side significantly differed between before and after treatment (Z =28.735,31.450,respectively,both P ＜ 0.001).As VAS showed,the pain score on the PDL side was significantly lower than that on the IPL side (t =2.468,P ＜ 0.05).Among the 20 patients,17 and 15 assessed their improvement as good or excellent after PDL and IPL treatment respectively,but there was no significant difference between the two groups (Z =2.696,P ＞ 0.05).The adverse reactions included erythema,burning sensation,tense sensation,blistering and hyperpigmentation on IPL-treated side,and erythema and purpuric reactions on the PDL-treated side,which all disappeared in a few hours to several days.Conclusions Both IPL and 595-nm PDL are effective and safe for the treatment of post-acne erythema,and are worthy of clinical promotion and application.IPL shows superiority in the efficacy,but elicits higher pain sensation compared with PDL.

OBJECTIVETo compare the serological characters of an outbreak of hepatitis E and evaluate sensitivity and specificity of anti-HEV E2-IgM.

METHODSThe sera collected from the employees of an outbreak unit were detected for anti-HEV E2-IgM and IgG, and the serum samples from a neighboring department were used as control. The results detected with anti-HEV E2-IgM, IgG and Genelab anti-HEV IgM, IgG in some samples were compared.

RESULTSThe positive rate of anti-HEV E2-IgM in the control group was 0.11%. The results between the positive and the negative samples can be distinguished easily. The specificity of anti-HEV E2-IgM is about 99.89%. The positive rate of anti-HEV E2-IgM in outbreak stricken population was 8.66%, significantly higher than that in the control group (P < 0.001). The results from HEV patients' serial samples in the outbreak unit showed that the anti-HEV E2-IgM titer was high 30-60 days after the infected and then declined clearly. The positivity seemed unrelated to neither sex nor age. Among the 115 positive to anti-HEV E2-IgM, 27 were negative to Genelab anti-HEV IgG, the fact indicated a rather high risk of misdiagnosis of about 23.48%. In the 179 randomized samples of the control group, the positive rate of Genelabs anti-HEV IgG was about 11.17%. In 110 samples for the positive anti-HEV E2-IgM, the positive ratio of Genelabs anti-HEV IgG was about 76.36%, and that of Genelabs anti-HEV IgM only 69.09%. There were 16 samples negative for both Genelabs anti-HEV IgG and IgM. The ratio of the difference between the Genelabs anti-HEV IgG and IgM was about 25.45%.

CONCLUSIONThe specificity of anti-HEV E2-IgM was about 99%, and false positive rate was low. The sensitivity of anti-HEV E2-IgM in acute hepatitis E infection was 25%-30% higher than that of Genelabs anti-HEV IgM,IgG. The infected persons in the outbreak unit can be preferably distinguished from the non-infected persons by anti-HEV E2-IgM. Anti-HEV E2-IgM can image the characters of the outbreak of HEV and played a great role in the control of outbreak and in the early diagnosis for hepatitis E.
