Ring finger protein 43 (RNF43) gene is closely associated with the development of various types of human tumors.The mainly mechanisms of RNF43 gene are mutation and aberrant expression.Activated RNF43 protein participates in the proliferation, apoptosis, metastasis through some signal pathways and influences the tumorigenesis and development in colorectal cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, which plays a role of oncogene.However, it is considered as a tumor suppressor gene in mucinous ovarian tumors and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms of the pancreas.

0.05).However,there was significant difference in E-selectin expression among each postmortem stability group of which skin samples were kept at 25℃ degree as compared with the wounded skin at 0h after injury(P

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effects of low tension,anti-reflux Roux-y sigmoid neobladder. Methods Using modified ureterocolostomy and colorectostomy,low tension Roux-y sigmoid neobladders were formed on 12 cases of bladder cancer and 1 case of vesicovaginal fistula.The surgical procedures involved making an “inversive valve” into the bowel lumen about 1.5 cm above the Roux-y anastomotic stoma and anastomosing the ureter and colon by Leadbetter method;then the reservoir was made by detubularization of sigmoid.Postoperatively,blood electrolytes and acid-base balance, and urination were monitored. Results During the follow-up of 0.5~5 years,only 2 cases had occasional fever;no hydronephrosis, no disorder of acid-base balance occurred.The blood electrolytes were within the normal range.And no one had incontinence. Conclusions The low tension,anti-reflux Roux-y sigmoid neobladder is a surgical technique of less trauma and with less complications.

The obstruction localization methods of OSAHS patients were reviewed in this article. And the advantages and disadvantages of each method were analyzed. Clinical doctors need to choose suitable method according to patients situation.

Objective To study the effect of bacteria on cholesterol gallstones formation. Methods The levels of ?-glucuronidase(?-G),endotoxin(ET),superoxide dismutase(SOD), and glucoprotein of gallbladder bile were determined in 50 cholecystolithiasis patients and 15 nonbiliary disease patients,and the relations between the 2 groups patients were analysed.Results The levels of ?-G,ET,SOD, and glucoprotein in gallbadder bile of patients with cholecystlithiasis were much higher than those of the control group(P

AIM To study the effects of apomorphine hydrochloride on the sexual function of rate. METHODS Male rats were grouped at random and respectively intraperitoneally injected with different dosages of apomorphine hydrochloride (4 32, 2 16 and 1 08 mg?kg -1 ), These male rats were put into cages respectively with a female rat to conduct the copulation experiment,including the latent periods of their seizure and ejaculation and the times of their seizing of the female rats and ejaculation within twenty minutes on the first and the eighth day during the injection. Radioimmunoassay(RIA) was used to determine the contents of luteinizing hormone(LH) ,prolactin(PRL) ,testosterone(T) and estradiol(E 2) in the venous blood on the fourth and the eighth day during the injection. RESULTS Apomorphine hydrochloride(4 32 and 2 16 mg?kg -1 ) can significantly increas the copulatory capability of male rats on the first and the eighth day during the injection, obviously reduce the latent periods of their seizing of the female rats and ejaculation when male and female rats were caged together, and increase the times of their seizure and ejaculation within twenty minutes after being caged together,but it had no obvious effects on the contents of luteinizing hormone(LH), prolactin (PRL), testosterone(T) and estradiol(E 2) in the venous blood. CONCLUSION Apomorphine hydrochloride can significantly increase the sexual function of male rats.

Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) is one kind of common vascular disease. Inflammation and matrix degradation in the vasculature are crucial for AAA formation, key mechanism of which include vascular smooth muscle cell(VSMC) senescence, oxidative stress, increased local production of proinflammatory cytokines, and increased activities of matrix metalloproteinase (MMPs). Cyp A, the member of cyclophilins,has a variety of physiological functions. It is highly expressed in VSMC, and plays an important role in the development of AAA, making it a new therapeutic target for such disease.

Objective To observe the effect of FTY720 on the expressions of Bel-2 and Bax protein and explore the neuroproteetive effect of FTY720 on neuron after acute spinal cord injury in the rats.Methods A total of 75 SD rats were divided randomly into three groups,ie,the test group(treated with FTY720),the injury group(treated with normal saline)and the control group.The test and injury groups were impacted to create T10 spinal cord injury(SCI)by Allen's method.Both the mRNA and protein expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax in the injured spinal cord section were studied respectively with hematoxylin and eosin(HE)staining,immunohistochemical examination and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)technique at different time points(at6 h,12 h,24 h,3 d and 7 d). Results The expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax in the test group and the injury group were higher than that in the control group at all time points.Meanwhile,at 12 h,24 h,3 d and 7 d,the mRNA and protein expressions of Bcl-2 in the test group were significantly higher than that in the injury group(P<0.05),while the mRNA and protein expressions of Bax in the test group were obviously lower than that in the injury group (P<0.05). Condusion Early administration of FTY720(0.5 mg/kg)after spinal cord injmy Canincrease the mRNA and protein expressions of Bcl-2,decrease the expression of Bax and inhibit neuron apoptosis in the injured spinal cord.

Objective To investigate the effect of combined Metformin and esomeprazole therapy on plasma levels of gastrin,blood glucose,glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c) and insulin in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes.Methods A randomized,double-blind,placebo-controlled study of 41 elderly patients with type 2 diabetes was conducted.Patients were randomly assigned into treatment group(combination therapy with Metformin 0.5 g,bid or tid and Esomeprazole 20 mg,qd,for 12 weeks)and placebo group(Metformin monotherapy 0.5 g,bid or tid,for 12 weeks).Fasting blood samples were taken from vein before and after treatment.Fasting serum levels of gastrin,glucose,HbA1c,insulin,lipids,liver and renal functions were compared between the two groups.The homeostasis model of assessment for insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR) and insulin secretion index (HOMA-β)were calculated,and complications were recorded.Results There were no significant differences in body mass index and waist circumference between the two groups.Serum gastrin level was slightly increased in the treatment group 12 weeks after treatment,but without statistically significance [(127.20±9.21)ng/L vs.(131.53±7.84)ng/L,P＞0.05],and serum gastrin level had no significant differences in the placebo group before and after treatment [(128.42±4.58)ng/L vs.(127.51±3.47)ng/L,P＞0.05].However,there were no significant differences in the changes of blood glucose,HbA1c,insulin,HOMA-β and HOMA-IR before versus after therapy,and between the two group(all P＞0.05).Conclusions Combined Metformin and insulin therapy cannot increase serum gastrin and insulin levels and has no significant effect on reducing blood glucose and HbA1c levels in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes.
