Objective:To explore the expression pattern and function of miR-126 in human colon cancer and the underlying mechanisms.
Methods:hTe expression pattern of miR-126 in high-density human colon cancer tissue microarray was analyzed by in situ hybridization. Further more, the biological function of miR-126 in colon cancer in vitro was investigated by establishing a stable miR-126 over-expression cell lines.
Result:hTe expression of miR-126 was lower in the tumor tissue, especially in metastasis tissue. hTe down-regulation of miR-126 was more obvious in the patients who displayed bad prognosis (P=0.025). Over-expression of miR-126 in colon cancer cell was able to inhibit cell proliferation, promote cell apoptosis and reduce the invasive ability. MiR-126 significantly enhanced the sensitivity of the colon cancer cell to chemotherapeutic drug. It has been shown that IRS1, SLC75A and TOM1 were the potential target genes of miR-126 in colon cancer.
Conclusion:MiR-126 was able to inhibit the development of colon cancer and its level was closely related with the prognosis of patients with colon cancer. The potential target genes for miR-126 might include IRS1, SLC7A5 and TOM1. Therefore, miR-126 might be a therapeutic target for colon cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To examine ultrastructural features of the arteriole responsible for intracerebral hemorrhage or the perforating branches artery around hematoma in patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage and explore the mechanism of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage. Methods Twelve hypertensive patients with CT proved intracerebral hemorrhage underwent operation. The small artery specimens were obtained through cortex fistula and their ultrastructures were observed under the electron microscope. Results Twelve specimens including 4 cases of duty arteriolae and 8 cases of perforating branch arteriolae were collected, Different degrees of degeneration were observed in three layers of the arteriola in all 12 specimens. Changes in endothelial cells included endothelial cell necrosis, collapse, or fallen of from endomembrane, accompanied by degeneration of internal elastic membrane, such as uneven thickness, absence of intermittent and medial smooth muscle cell necrosis. Myofilaments in the cytoplasm were condensed to form a high electron-dense cytoplasm. No micro-aneurysm was observed. Conclusions The pathological changes of cerebral small artery walls load-bearing layer in hypertensive patients include internal elastic layer rupture, smooth muscle layer of degeneration, decreased elasticity and increased fragility. Small artery walls may rupture, resulting in bleeding under the condition of rapid dynamic changes of blood flow.

Thermogravimetry (TG), TG-MS, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscope (SEM)-energy dispersive spectrometer(EDS) were adopted to investigate the pyrolysis characteristics of calamina. According to the findings of the qualitative and quantitative studies on the changes in the content of relevant elements, the whole shape, the functional groups, and the volatile components of calamina before and after being pyrolyzed, the 200-360, 580-750 degrees C were two sensitive temperature ranges related to the changes in effective component during calamina processing. Thermal weight loss was observed for ZnCO3, Zn(OH)2 and ZnCO3-2Zn(OH)2-H2O under 200-360 degrees C and for CaCO3 under 580-750 degrees C. The results of studies on chemical reaction kinetics showed good linear relations. This experiment integrated relevant methods and theories of physical chemistry and science of traditional Chinese medicine processing, and interpretes calamina processing techniques and mechanism, in order to provide a good example for modem studies on other traditional Chinese medicine processing.

BACKGROUND:According to the core functional zone of amino acid sequence of the osteoinduction in bone morphogenetic proteins, our research group synthesized bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) active polypeptides Ⅰ and Ⅱ by artificial solid-state synthesis method. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the osteoinductive ability of BMP active polypeptides Ⅰ and Ⅱ in animals. METHODS:Forty-two Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into seven groups, and respectively implanted with hydroxyapatite/polylactic acid carrying 0.2, 0.4, 0.8 g/L BMP active polypeptides I, hydroxyapatite/polylactic acid carrying 0.2, 0.4, 0.8 g/L BMP active polypeptides Ⅱ, and hydroxyapatite/polylactic acid alone. At 3 and 5 weeks postoperatively, X-ray, CT and histological detection were conducted to evaluate osteoinductive conditions in the seven groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 3 and 5 weeks postoperatively, there were better local osteoinductive effects in the groups hydroxyapatite/polylactic acid carrying BMP active polypeptides Ⅰ and Ⅱ than the group of hydroxyapatite/polylactic acid, indicating both two kinds of BMP active polypeptides possessed a certain osteoinductive ability. Moreover, this osteoinductive ability became stronger with time. At 5 weeks postoperatively, the osteoinductive effect in the 0.4 and 0.8 g/L BMP active polypeptides I groups was better than that in the 0.2 g/L BMP active polypeptides I group and the 0.2, 0.4 and 0.8 BMP active polypeptides Ⅱ groups (P < 0.05). In addition, there was no difference in the osteoinductive effect of 0.4 and 0.8 g/L BMP active polypeptides I groups. These results indicate that BMP active polypeptides I has a stronger osteoinductive ability than BMP active polypeptides Ⅱ.

Objective: To investigate the posttraumatic growth and emotional regulation strategies of patients with moderate and severe burns at different time points in the rehabilitation period, and to explore the correlation between posttraumatic growth and emotional regulation strategies, so as to provide a basis for targeted nursing intervention. Methods: By convenience sampling method, 115 convalescent patients with moderate and severe burns in Linyi People′s Hospital burn plastic surgery center were investigated by General Information Questionnaire, Chinese Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (C-PTGI), Emotion Regulation Scale (ERQ) respectively on the day of discharge (T1), 3 months and 6 months after hospital discharge (T2, T3) from December 2017 to January 2019. Results: The post-traumatic growth scores of patients T1, T2 and T3 were 58.18±9.51, 48.65±9.31 and 47.43±8.76, respectively. The post-traumatic growth scores showed a downward trend at three time points, and the difference was statistically significant (F=339.732,P<0.01). The scores of T1, T2 and T3 in the cognitive reassessment dimensions of patients′emotion regulation strategies were respectively 27.10±4.13, 26.95±3.76, 26.11±3.60. The scores are going down and the differences were statistically significant (F=27.798, P<0.01). The expression inhibition scores were 14.42±4.39, 15.20±3.30, 15.21±3.56 respectively. The scores are the rise and the differences were statistically significant (F=13.675, P < 0.01). There were positive correlations between cognitive reassessment scores and posttraumatic growth scores、scores of all dimensions (r=0.230-0.555, P<0.05). The expression inhibition scores were negatively correlated with the total post-traumatic growth scores, personal strength, and scores of new possibility dimensions (r=-0.230--0.420, P<0.05). Conclusion Posttraumatic growth of patients with moderate to severe burns is not optimistic in the rehabilitation period. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the guidance of emotional regulation strategies for patients with moderate to severe burns in the rehabilitation period, and carry out targeted interventions to promote the posttraumatic growth of patients.

Objective To explore the effect of multifaceted interventions on musculoskeletal disorders ( MSDs) in nurses which consists of participatory ergonomics, physical training and cognitive behavioral training. Methods Totally 420 nurses were investigated about their situation of MSDs in June 2014 by Nordic self-rating MSDs scale. Nurses were assigned to the control group ( n=191) and the intervention group ( n=229) according to the survey. In the intervention group, the number of nurses with MSDs was 141, and the number of nurses without MSDs was 88;in the control group, the number of nurses with MSDs was 102, and the number of nurses without MSDs was 89. Nurses in the intervention group received multifaceted intervention, while nurses in the control group received no intervention. The changes on duration, intensity and related expenses of MSDs were compared between two groups after 6 months. Results For nurses with MSDs, there was no significance among the duration, intensity and related expenses between two groups before intervention ( P>0.05) . After intervention, the duration, intensity and related expenses of nurses with MSDs in the intervention group were ( 8. 1 ± 4.3) d, (3.5±2.6) points and (648.7±128.0) yuan, and they were lower than that of nurses with MSDs in the control group [(12.7±7.2) d, (3.4±2.2) points, (950.8±103.6) yuan](t=-6.211,-3.896,-19.631;P<0.01). Before intervention, there were no records of the duration, intensity and related expenses of nurses without MSDs; after intervention, the duration, intensity and related expenses of nurses without MSDs were ( 7. 6 ± 4.7) d, ( 3. 4 ± 2.2) points and (525.3±140.6) yuan, which were lower than that of the control group [(9.2±3.5) d, (4.5± 3.3) points, (820.4±120.5) yuan] (t=-2.571, -2.606, -14.998;P<0.05).Conclusions Multifaceted interventions consisting of participatory ergonomics, physical training and cognitive behavioral training can reduce the duration, intensity and related expenses of nurses with MSDs, and they also have a preventive effect for nurses without MSDs.
