BACKGROUND: The different level of proteins regulating cell cycle and theircorrelation is the main criteria to differentiate the benign and malignant cellular proliferation.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression status of p21waf1 and p53 in lung cancer as well as proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)DESIGN:A case-control study.SETTING: Department of Respiratory Medicine, Renmin Hospital ,Wuhan UniversityPAITICIPANTS:This case-control study involved 135 patients who underwent lobectomy or fiberoptic bronchoscopy for primary lung cancer or benign chronic pulmonary diseases at Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from October 1996 through May 1999. They were divided into two groups: lung cancer group (76 patients, including 56 men and 20 women,aged 18-74 years of age) and chronic pulmonary diseases group (59 cases,including 42 men and 17 women, aged 16-70 years of age).METHODS: Phosphate buffer solution replaced the first antibody as the negative control. Immunohistochemistry was performed using a modified streptavidin-biotinylated peroxidase technique according to the manufacturer's recommendations (Maxim Corporation). For p21waf1 staining, we used hydrated autoclaving as a pretreatment. Antigen retrieval was performed in a standard microwave unit for p53 staining. PCNA staining did not need The ratio of the positive cells indicated by yellowish brown nucleus due to staining was counted for 5 successive high-fold microscopic fields: when it was≥ 10%, it was taken as positive; when it was <10%, it was regarded as high-fold microscopic fields for the percentage of the positive cells indicated by yellowish brown nucleus due to staining in each field, and the average value of the five fields was taken as labeling index (LI) for proliferated nuclear antigens.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The expression leyels of p21waf1, p53and PCNA in lung cancer.cancer were 75% (57/76) and 47%(36/76) respectively. The labeling index of PCNA in lung cancer group was significantly higher than that of the chronic pulmonary diseases group (0.44±0.32 vs 0.09±0.14, respectively).significantly higher than that of small cell lung cancer (0.51 ±0.33 vs in lung cancer tissues. In chronic pulmonary diseases group, the expression of p21waf1 and p53 showed a close relationship with PCNA.CONCLUSION: It was found that p21waf1 and p53 were obviously upregulated in lung cancer and the degree of cellular proliferation in lung cancer was rather high. The capacity of DNA damage repair in squamous lung cancer may be stronger than that in small cell lung cancer.

Objective To evaluate the effects and mechanism of valerian extract treatment on bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis of rats. Methods After healthy Wistar rats(irrespective of sex)were given diethyl ether inhalation anesthesia, giving a single intratracheal instillation of bleomycin at a dose of 5 mg/kg to make a pattern of pulmonary fibrosis. 65 survival rats were randomly divided into four groups: Valerian high-dose groups(n = 16), Valerian low-dose groups(n = 16), Colchicine group(n = 16)and Model group (n = 17).Each group was given a dose of 100 mg/kg valeian extract everyday, a dose of 20 mg/kg valeian extract Valeian extract , a dose of 100μg/kg colchicine and a dose of 10ml/kg after second day. And in each groups, 6 rats were killed on day 7, 10 rats were killed on day 28 after instillation respectively. Rats in control group (n = 8) were instilled with saline intractracheally and saline was given everyday with a dose of 10ml/kg. Control group was killed on day 28. After rats were killed, The right lower pulmonary lobes were harvested for HE-staining, Masson-staining was used to observe the transformation of pulmonary tissue and immunohistochemistry was used to examine transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) which was analyzed by image analysis system. Results No obvious transformation were found in control group. The alveolitis in valerian and colchicine groups were ameliorated, compared with model group on day 7. The expressions of TGF-β1 in control group were lower than that in model group, and the mean integrated optical densities of TGF-β1 in control group were lower than that in mod-el group(P<0.05). The pulmonary fibrosis in valerian and colchicine group were ameliorated, compared with model group on day 28. The expressions of TGF-β1 in valerian and colchicine group were lower than that in model group. There were no significant differences between the valerian group and the colchicine group. Conclusion Valerian extract could reduce the degree of alveolitis and fibrosis induced by bleo-mycin through suppressing of TGF-β1.

Objective To investigate the relationship between gallbladder wall-typing and the main portal vein, right portal vein hemodynamics in patients with liver cirrhosis. Methods The main portal vein, right portal vein hemodynamics and the thickness of gallbladder wall were examined in 69 patients with cirrhosis and 30 normal subjects (control group) with two-dimensional ultrasound, color Doppler ultrasound and high-frequency ultrasound. According to the gallbladder wall-typing, 69 patients with liver cirrhosis were divided into not thickened, simple thickening and bilateral subgroups. The paremeters of hemodynamics and the thickness of gallbladder wall were compared among groups. Results There was statistical difference in thickness of gallbladder wall among all 3 subgroups. Statistical difference of the diameter of main portal vein (D_(pv)) was found among the subgroups (P<0.01), except between not thickened and simple thickening subgroup. Statistical difference of the velocity of the main portal vein (V_(pv)) was found between simple thickening subgroup and control group, as well as between bilateral subgroup and the control group (P<0.01). Statistical differences of quantity of blood flow in the main portal vein (Q_(pv)) were detected between bilateral subgroup and other 2 subgroups and control group (P<0.05). No statistical difference of diameter of right portal vein (D_(rpv)) and quantity of blood flow in the right portal vein (Q_(rpv)) was found among all groups and subgroups. The velocity of the right portal vein (V_(rpv)) of bilateral subgroup was statistically different with that of the control group and the simple thickening subgroup (P<0.05). No statistical difference of Q_(rpv)/Q_(pv) existed between the patients with liver cirrhosis and the normal subjects (P>0.05). There was positive correlation between the gallbladder wall thickness and D_(pv) (r=0.886, P<0.01). Conclusion The gallbladder wall-typing has no correlation with the right portal vein hemodynamics, but is related with the main portal vein hemodynamics. The bilateral and the thickness of gallbladder wall can indirectly reflect the hemodynamic changes of main portal vein. Obstruction to flow of cystic vein is not the main hemodynamic cause for the gallbladder wall changes in patients with liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension cause, indicating that there may be some intrinsic mechanisms of this phenomenon.
