Objective:To detect expression of SNCG and CXCR4 mRNA in gastric adenocarcinoma and evaluate its function in carcinogenesis, progression, infiltration, and metastasis, as well as the correlation of these proteins. Methods:The expression of SNCG and CXCR4 mRNAs was detected using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction in gastric adenocarcinoma and normal gastric mucosa. Results:The expression of SNCG and CXCR4 mRNAs was obviously higher in gastric adenocarcinoma than in normal gastric mucosa (P<0.01). The expression of SNCG mRNA was closely correlated with tumor infiltration depth (P<0.05) and lymph node metas-tasis (P<0.01). The expression of CXCR4 mRNA closely correlated with lymph node metastasis (P<0.01). The expression of SNCG and CXCR4 mRNAs positively correlated in 29 cases of gastric adenocarcinoma (r=0.346, P<0.05). Conclusion:SNCG and CXCR4 may be overexpressed in tumor tissue and may have important functions in tumorigenesis, progression, infiltration, and metastasis of gastric adenocarcinoma.

Objective To investigate the application value of transvaginal three-dimensional ultrasound combined with tomographic ultrasound imaging (TUI) in the diagnosis of early ectopic pregnancy. Methods One hundred and twenty patients with 4 to 6 weeks menopause were collected. All of the cases were clinical suspected of ectopic pregnancy and the surgical pathology and clinical follow-up results of each case were obtained. Both transvaginal two dimensional ultrasound imaging and three-dimensional ultrasound imaging combined with TUI technique were applied in order to make a diagnosis based on ultrasonographic characteristics for each of the case;surgical pathology and clinical follow-up results were compared with the ultrasonographic diagnosis so as to analysis and conclude the ultrasonographic imaging characteristics of cases misdiagnosed or missed diagnosed by transvaginal two-dimensional ultrasound imaging and three-dimensional ultrasound imaging joint TUI technique. Results One hundred and two cases were confirmed as ectopic pregnancy by surgical pathology and clinical follow-up results among 120 patients and eighteenth cases were confirmed as intrauterine pregnancy. Comparing surgical pathology and clinical follow-up results with the ultrasonographic diagnosis showed:(1) Ninety-two cases of tubal pregnancy:80 cases were correctly diagnosed by transvaginal two-dimensional ultrasound imaging (86.9%, 80/92) while 84 cases by three-dimensional combined with TUI technique (91.3%, 84/92); 8 cases were missed diagnosed by both two methods;4 cases were misdiagnosed by transvaginal two-dimensional ultrasound imaging while zero case by three-dimensional combined with TUI technique. Ultrasonographic imaging characteristics:adnexal masses presented as“Donut”sign which was similar to gestational-sac or masses with irregular boundary. The majority of the masses presented as clear boundaries and internal structure and had obvious margins with fallopian tube. A total 36 cases of unruptured tubal pregnancy were correctly diagnosed by the two methods while 43 cases of abortion type and 5 cases of ruptured type were correctly diagnosed. (2) Ten cases of uterine cornual pregnancy:6 cases were correctly diagnosed by transvaginal two-dimensional ultrasound imaging (60.0%, 6/10) while 9 cases by three-dimensional ultrasound imaging joint TUI technique (90.0%, 9/10);4 cases were misdiagnosd by transvaginal two-dimensional ultrasound imaging and 1 case by three-dimensional ultrasound imaging joint TUI technique. Ultrasonographic imaging characteristics:the gestational-sac was located in the uterine horn, 6 cases of gestational-sac was not connected with endometrium showed by transvaginal two-dimensional ultrasound imaging while 9 cases were clearly showed by three-dimensional ultrasound imaging joint TUI technique that the gestational-sac was connected with endometrium, especially in the coronal-section. The surrounding decidua circumvoluted the gestational-sac was unclear in 4 cases by transvaginal two-dimensional ultrasound imaging and in 9 cases by three-dimensional ultrasound imaging joint TUI technique. And‘interstitial line’ sign appeared in 4 cases showed by transvaginal two-dimensional ultrasound imagingwhile 6 cases by three-dimensional ultrasound imaging joint TUI technique. (3) Cases missed diagnosed and misdiagnosed:8 cases of early ectopic pregnancy were missed diagnosed both by transvaginal two-dimensional ultrasound imaging and three-dimensional ultrasound imaging joint TUI. The reasons we concluded were as follow:‘false gestational-sac’ located in the uterine cavity;the location of the gestational-sac was so closed to uterine cavity. Four cases of tubal pregnancy and 4 cases of uterine cornual pregnancy were misdiagnosed by transvaginal two-dimensional ultrasound imaging. The location of the ectopic pregnancy mass and the gestational-sac of 7 cases of uterine cornual pregnancy were clearly showed by three-dimensional ultrasound imaging joint TUI and only 1 case was misdiagnosed. Conclusions Transvaginal three-dimensional ultrasound imaging combined with TUI technique can provide more detailed ultrasound diagnostic information and reduced missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis of the early ectopic pregnancy. The clinical application value of transvaginal three-dimensional ultrasound imaging combined with TUI technique in the diagnosis of early ectopic pregnancy was good.

Objective To observe the inhibitory effects of local co-transfection of tissue-type plasminogen activator(tPA) gene and proliferating cell nuclear antigen antisense oligodeoxynucleotides(PCNA-ASODN) on the intima proliferation and restenosis of autograft artery in rabbits. Methods One hundred and twenty male Zelanian rabbits were randomly divided into four groups(n=30, in each group): control group, PCNA-ASODN group, tPA group and tPA+PCNA-ASODN group. The left and right external iliac arteries (length 1.0 cm) were transplanted reciprocally. The transplanted arteries were respectively soaked in lipofection, PCNA-ASODN, pBudCE4.1/tPA and pBudCE4.1/tPA+PCNA-ASODN solution about 15 minutes. The transplanted arteries were sutured with 9-0 sutures soaked in PCNA-ASODN and pBudCE4.1/tPA solution. Each group were divided into five subgroups(n=6, in each subgroup) according to the sacrifice time (3 d, 7 d, 14 d, 28 d and 56 d after operation). On every sacrifice time point, the vascular specimens were harvested. The thrombocyte assembling and thrombus forming lining vessel wall were observed by scanning electron microscope. The pathological morphology of transplanted arteries were observed under microscope(HE). The intimal areas and stenosis ratio(%) of transplanted arteries were calculate and analyzed statistically among groups by computer system. The mRNA expression of tPA gene in transplanted ressel wall was detected with vevere transcription-PCR(RT-PCR). The number of PCNA positive cells in transplanted vessel wall was counted by SP immunochemisty. Results The mRNA expression of tPA gene in the transplan-ted vessel wall in tPA and tPA+PCNA-ASODN groups was higher than that of the other two groups (P

Objective To observe the effects of co-transfection of proto-oncogene c-myc antisense oligodeoxynucleotides(c-myc-AODN) and tissue-type plasminogen activator(tPA) gene on intimal hyperplasia of auto-transplantion artery in rabbit. Methods The left and right external iliac artery(length 1.0 cm) of rabbits were cross transplanted. The artery grafts and sutures were respectively soaked in Lipofection, c-myc-AODN, pBudCE4.1/tPA, c-myc-AODN and pBudCE4.1/tPA solution for 15 minutes. Each group were divided into five subgroups(n=5, in each subgroup) according to the sacrifice times(3, 7, 14, 28 and 56 d after operation). Specimens were harvested for pathology, chromogenic substrate test, 3H-TdR incorporation test and immunochemisty coloration study. Result The intimal area, stenosis ratio, 3H-TdR incorporation, PCNA positive cell in c-myc-AODN adding tPA co-transfection group were significantly lower than that of control group(P0.01), and that were lower than c-myc-AODN transfection group and tPA gene transfection group(P0.05). Conclusion Vascular local co-transfection of tPA gene and c-myc-AODN effectively inhibits the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cell(VSMC) and hyperplasia of intima of the transplanted artery.

AIM: To study the effects of intrathymic inoculation of liver specific antigen (LSA) on hepatocyte apoptosis after liver allotransplantation. METHODS: Orthotopic liver transplantation was used in this study. Group Ⅰ: syngenic control (Wistar-to-Wistar); Group Ⅱ: acute rejection (SD-to-Wistar); Group Ⅲ: thymus inoculation of SD rat LSA day 7 before transplantation. The observation of general situation and survival time, hepatocyte apoptosis and LAT expression in liver transplants were used to analyze immune state of animals in different groups. RESULTS: The general situation of group Ⅰ was very well after transplantation. Recipients of groupⅡ lost body weight progressively and all died within day 9 to day 13 post transplantation. As for group Ⅲ, the general situation of recipients was remarkably better than that in group Ⅱ. The positive cells of apoptosis in group Ⅲ detected by TUNEL were not significantly different from that in group Ⅰ, but was significantly lower than that in group Ⅱ. LAT was detected at any time in group Ⅱ with peak expression at day 5 and day 7 post transplantation. In contrast, LAT was not detected in any other groups. CONCLUSION: Intrathymic inoculation of LSA protects hepatocytes from apoptosis after liver allotransplantation.

? AIM: To investigate the differences between synoptophore and triple prism strabismometry and its possible cause.?METHODS: There were 347 patients with horizontal concomitant strabismus involved, in which 76 patients were esotropia, 37 patients were male while 39 were female, with average age of 13. 27 ± 7. 77 years old. There were 271 patients with exotropia, 131 cases were male while 140 were female, with average age of 15. 43 ± 8. 42 years old. All the patients were examined by synoptophore and prism plus shaded strabismometry in a long distance of 6m. Datas were analyzed by SPSS 17. 0.?RESULTS:In the exotropia patients, the conversions of circular degree(°) and prism degree(△) were:1°=0. 29△ ~1. 78△, which was statistically significant with intermittent strabismus (P=0. 001). While in the esotropia patients, the conversions were:1°=2. 01△ ~2. 15△.?CONCLUSION: The diversity between the two methods is enlarged with the increase of squint angle for exotropia patients. While in esotropia patients, the diversity decreased with the increase of squint angle. Synoptophore equipped with +7. 00D, defects of the triple prism itself and proximal convergence during exam may be the reasons for the diversity.
