Objective To investigate the elationship between the expression of Cathepsin D and Laminin receptors with the invasion and metastasis of gastric cancers.Methods Cathepsin D and Laminin receptors immunoreactivities were evaluated in 96 patients with gastric cancer using streptavaclin pemxidase method.Results Over expression of Cathepsin D in gastric cancer tissue was significantly related with the depth of invasion,lymphnode metastasis and grade of differentiation (P<0.01,P<0.01 and P<0.05, respectively).Moreover,the high expression of Lamninin receptors in gastric cancer had significant correlations with the invasion depth and grade of differentiation(P<0.05 and P<0.01);The positive expression of Laminin receptors were not significantly related with lymph node metastasis(P>0.05).By statistics analysis Cathepsin D had a significant positive correlation with Laminin receptors (P<0.05). Conclusion Cathepsin D and Laminin Receptors play all important role in the invasion and metastasis of gastric Cancers.

OBJECTIVE To study drug resistance status of infected bacteria in abdominal surgical wound for their countermeasures. METHODS The abdominal surgical infection of a hospital was investigated from Jan 2000 to Dec 2004.Bacterial isolation and identification were carried out complying with National Operation Procedure of The Clinical Laboratory.Drug sensitivity test was performed with KB method. RESULTS The infection rate was 4.1%.The species were predominated by Gram-negative bacilli(71.1%),especially Escherichia coli(17.2%),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(16.7%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae(12.7%),and they all beared high antibiotics resistance. CONCLUSIONS Special attention should be paid to abdominal surgical wound infection.

DNA vaccine is used in infectious diseases initially, and later is applied in neoplastic diseases, allergic diseases and other fields with the further understanding of DNA vaccine and the development of genetic engineering. DNA vaccine transfers the genes encoding exogenous antigens to plasmid vector and then is introduced into organism. It controls the antigen proteins synthesis, thus induces specific humoral and cellular immune responses. So it has a broad application prospect in allergic diseases. Compared with the traditional protein vaccines used in specific immunotherapy, DNA vaccine has many advantages, including high purity and specificity, and improvement of patients' compliance etc. However, there are still two unsolved problems. First, the transfection rate of unmodified naked DNA plasmid is not high, Second, it's difficult to induce ideal immune response. In this study, we will review the progress of DNA vaccine applications in respiratory allergic diseases and its various optimization strategies.

Objective To establish a proper extraction method for Yangxue Ruanjian Prescription (YRP) by comparing the chemical component contents and analgesic and anti - inflammatory effect of extracts extracted from YRP by different methods. Methods Water - decocting, alcohol - refluxing and alcohol - percolating methods were adopted and component indexes of paeoniflorin and gentiopicrin were determined by HPLC. The anti - inflammatory effect of the extracts were observed on mice with xylol - induced auricular swelling and analgesic effect by hot - plate method. Results The content of gentiopicrin is similar in the extracts extracted by three methods and the content of paeoniflorin is higher in alcohol - percolating extract than in alcohol - refluxing extract, lowest in water - extraction. The analgesic effect of water - decocting extract is better than that of alcohol - refluxing extract, and that of alcohol - percolating extract is weakest; the anti - inflammatory effect of the three extracts is almost the same. Conclusion Water - decocting extraction is suitable to YRP, and this is determined by the characteristics of Chinese compound prescription.

Objective To investigate the experimental condition of separate purification and directed differentiation potency of pancreatic stem cells of adult rats in vitro. Methods The pancreas of adult rats were digested by collagenase V in situ perfusion. Filtration was performed by 100 mesh filter. Ficoll 400 density gradient centrifugation was used to separate pancreatic stem cells and stem cells were for cultivation. Epidermal growth factor (EGF), fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) was added to medium for in vitro cultivation.Immunofluorescence staining method was used to detect the expression of CK19, Pdx-1, nestin, insulin and glucagon, and the positive cell rate was calculated. The differentiated cell was evaluated by dithizone (DTZ)staining; insulin excretion function was determined by optical enzyme labeled ELISA staining. Results The pancreatic stem cell obtained from the study could be cultivated in vitro for 8 generations. The expression of CK19, Pdx-1 and nestin of the tem cells were all positive, and the rate of positive cells were (88.6 ± 6.2)% ,(84.6 ±8.6)% and (81.3 ±7.5)%. The differentiated cell was in brownish red color by DTZ dye. After high concentration sugar stimulation, the expression of insulin secretion was increased in the supernatant.Conclusions This method can harvest highly purified, and large amount of pancreatic duct stem cell.Artificial induction may result directed differentiate for islet-like clusters and have insulin secrete function.

Objective To investigate the characteristics and influencing factors leading to sudden cardiac death (SCD) of incarcerated prisoners. Methods Seventy-five SCD cases of prisoners between 2000 and 2013 in Henan province were collected, and environment, psychological and physical factors were retro-spectively analyzed. Combined with histopathological results, specific factors of SCD were also studied. Results In the 75 cases, 21 cases (28%) had definite chronic past medical histories, and 75 cases (100%) had cardiovascular disease confirmed by autopsy. Conclusion Due to presence of the potential cardiac diseases, special incarcerated environment, psychological stress, and body-restraint might be the precipitat-ing factors in SCD of those prisoners.

Objective To evaluate the effects of simvastatin on the vascular elasticitv in fat-fed rabbits by echo-tracking(ET)technique.Methods Twenty seven rabbits were divided randomly into 3 groups:normal control group(group A),high fat diet group(group B),simvastatin group(group C:high fat diet for the 1st 4 weeks and high fat diet+simvastatin for the 2nd 4 weeks).β,EP,AC,and PWVβof abdominal aorta (AO) and femoral artery(FA)of rabbits in group A、B、C were measured by ET technique at the end of 4th week and 8th week respectively.The expression of iNOS was measured at the end of 8th week.Results At the end of the 4th week,β,Ep,and PWVβ of FA were significantly inereased and AC was significantly decreased in group B compared to those in group A(P＜0.05).At the end of the 8th week,β,Ep,PWVβof AO were significantly increased and AC was significantly decreased in group B compared to those in group A(P＜0.05);β,Ep,PWVβ of FA were statistically decreased and AC was statistically increased in group C compared to those in group B(P＜0.05),however there was no significant difference of AO between groups B and C.Conclusions Short-term administration of simvastatin can improve the elasticity of some muscular arteries such as FA but not AO.

Pancreatic cancer is a highly malignant, fast progressive digestive system neoplasm with poor prognosis, and the incidence has increased significantly in the recent years. The treatment mode of pancreatic cancer has been transformed from surgery-first approach to multidisciplinary approach including surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and other comprehensive treatment modalities, accompanying with significant improvement in clinical efficacy. During the last decade, the molecular mechanism of pancreatic cancer has been explored in depth. Indeed, we had a clearer understanding of the disease, which provides clues for translation of basic research into clinical practice. This review summarized recent high quality studies on pancreatic cancer including pathogenic factor, advances in basic research, and clinical treatment.
