Objective To study the expression of human kallikrein gene(KLK) 4 and KLK5 in ovarian cancers,and to investigate the pathogenesis in malignant tumors. Methods Fifty specimens of ovarian cancers were divided into three groups: malignant tumor group(n=23),borderline tumor group(n=6) and control group(normal or benign tumor,n=21).Fluorescent quantitative RT-PCR was employed to determine the expression of KLK4 and KLK5 in these specimens. Results The expression of KLK4 in ovarian cancers was significantly higher than that of the control group(P

Objective To investigate the relation between brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) rs198388 polymorphism and the susceptibility of essential hypertension in Han population of Hunan. Methods A total of 567 patients with hypertension (the hypertension group) and 555 healthy volunteers (the control group) were enrolled. Gender, age, smoking and drinking history of the 2 groups were not significantly different. Blood pressure was measured in the 2 groups. After fasting for 12 h or more, blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, high density lipoprotein cholesterol and low density lipoprotein cholesterol were measured. DNA polymorphism analysis was done by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method, and genotype was determined by agarose gel electrophoresis. Results The GG, GA, and AA genotypeswere detected.The frequencies of GA and AA genotypes and A allele were significantly lower in the hypertension group (GA and AA:12.3%;A:6.9%) than those in the control group (GA and AA:18.4%; A:9.7%; P=0.009, and P=0.014, respectively). Conclusion BNP rs198388 polymorphism may be associated with essential hypertension in Han people in Hunan. Carrying rs198388 GA and AA genotypes and A allele may be the reason for low risk of hypertension.

Objective To discuss the relationship between prognosis and different surgical procedures for gallbladder cancer in different stages. Methods The clinical data of 107 patients with gallbladder cancer from January 2001 to May 2007 were retrospectively analyzed. The surgical procedure was chosen according to different stages. Results Eighty-one of the 107 patients (75.6%) were followed up with the median time of 5 years. Of the 10 patients with stage Ⅰ gallbladder cancer who had underwent simple cholecystectomy, 9 survived. Of the 8 patients with stage Ⅱ gallbladder cancer, 3 received palliative cholecystectomy and the median survival time was 12 months, which was significantly shorter than 24 months of the remaining 5 patients who received radical operation (X2= 5.698, P <0.05). Of the 42 patients with stage Ⅲ gallbladder cancer, 18 received radical operation, and the median survival time was 24 months, which was not significantly different from 18 months of the 5 patients who received extended radical operation (X2=0.238, P>0.05). The remaining 19 patients received palliative operation, and the median survival time was 6 months, which was significantly shorter than those of patients received radical operation or extended radical operation (X2=5.772, 6.318, P <0.05). There were 47 patients with stage Ⅳ gallbladder cancer. Seventeen patients received extended radical operation and 30 received palliative operation, and no significant difference upon the median survival time was observed among different surgical procedures (X2=0.001,0.694, P>0.05). The complication recurrence after the extended radical operation was significantly higher than palliative operation (X2=6.039, P<0.05). Conclusions For patients with stage Ⅰ gallbladder cancer, simple cholecystectomy is preferred. Radical operation is good for patients with stage Ⅱ gallbladder cancer. The choose of radical operation or extended radical operation for patients with stage Ⅲ gallbladder cancer should be based on the condition of invasion. Palliative operation could be used to patients with stage Ⅳ gallbladder cancer.

Objective To evaluate the effect of deep and moderate neuromuscular blockade on surgical conditions during minor laparoscopic gynecologic surgery.Methods Sixty-five patients,with expected surgery time < 3 h,aged 18-60 yr,with body mass index<30 kg/m2,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ orⅡ,scheduled for elective laparoscopic gynecological surgery,were allocated into deep neuromuscular blockade group (group D,n =33) and moderate neuromuscular blockade group (group M,n=32) using a random number table.After induction of anesthesia,the patients were tracheally intubated and mechanically ventilated.Cisatracurium was continuously infused to maintain the degree of neuromuscular blockade in both groups to achieve the target degree post-tetanic count of 1 or 2 in group D and train-of-four (TOF) count of 1 or 2 in group M.Surgical conditions were assessed and scored after surgery.The recovery index,time for TOF ratio returning to 0.7 and 0.9,surgery time,mean intra-abdominal pressure,extubation time and TOF ratio at extubation were recorded.Results Compared with group M,the mean intra-abdominal pressure was significantly decreased,and the extubation time and time for TOF ratio returning to 0.7 and 0.9 were prolonged in group D (P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the other parameters between the two groups (P>0.05).Conclusion Moderate neuromuscular blockade can provide better surgical conditions for minor laparoscopic gynecological surgery with shorter recovery time.

Various cancers have seriously threatened human' s health. Screening newer and more effective anticancer agents from natural sources to cure these diseases is the focus in research. As novel sources of potential medicine, a number of metabolites isolated from endophytic fungi have been proved to have anticancer bioactivity. Usually, these endophytic fungi have special biochemical pathway and they can accumulate anticancer agents in cultures such as taxane, alkaloids, cytochalasins, podophyllotoxin, brefeldin A and so forth. The research advance on anticancer agents purified from endophytic fungi is expatiated systemically. In addition, the strategy of screening anticancer agents as well as the prospect on this area is introduced briefly.
