Objective To investigate the expression of ER and PR in hyperplasia of mammary glands and breast cancer. Methods The expression of ER and PR in 68 hyperplasia of mammary glands cases and 168 breast cancer cases were quantified by immunohistochemical method. Results The expression of ER in breast cancer(30%) was significantly higher than that in hyperplasia of mammary glands(10 %)(P <0.05) and there was no significant difference in PR between them. The expression of ER in postmenopausal breast cancer was significantly higher than that in postmenopausal hyperplasia of mammary glands (P <0.05) and there was no significant difference in ER between two premenopausal groups. The expression of PR in invasive lobular carcinoma was significantly higher than that in invasive ductal carcinoma and other types (P=0.005).Conclusion The expression of ER and PR may identify the characteristics of patholobiology in breast disease.

Objective To investigate the effect of ketamine injected into the ventral posteromedial nucleus (VPM) of the thalamus on sensory processing of thalamocortical circuits in rats.Methods Twenty-four SpragueDawley rats in which the neurophysiological model was successfully established,aged 2 months,weighing 280-350g,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=6 each):control group (group C),specific inhibitor of NMDA receptors AP-5 group (group A) and two different concentrations of ketamine groups (K1 and K2 groups).Normal saline 1 μl,AP-5 5 μg/μl and ketamine 12.5 and 25.0 μg/μl were injected into the VPM in A,AP-5,K1 and K2groups,respectively.Somatosensory-evoked potentials (SEPs) in the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) of the rat was recoded at 4 time periods:300 s before administration-immediately after administration (baseline,T0),immediately after administration-300 s after administration (T1),300-600 s after administration (T2),600-900 s after administration (T3).Results Compared with the baseline value at T0,there was no significant difference in the peak amplitude of SEPs at T1-3 in group C (P > 0.05),and the peak amplitude of SEPs was significantly decreased at T1-3 in A,K1 and K2 groups (P < 0.05).Compared with group C,the peak amplitude of SEPs was significantly decreased at T1-3 in A,K1 and K2 groups (P < 0.05).Compared with group A,the peak amplitude of SEPs was significantly increased at T3 in group K1 (P < 0.05).There was no significant difference in the peak amplitude of SEPs between A and K2 groups,K1 and K2 groups (P > 0.05).Conclusion Ketamine results in damage to the integrity of sensory processing of thalamocortical circuits and reduction of incoming sensory information,and the mechanism may be related to blockade of NMDA receptors in VPM of the thalamus.

Objective To investigate the effects of silencing of the human cerebral 21 .5 kDa myelin basic protein (MBP) gene on the proliferation and apoptosis of the glioma U251 cells .Methods The 21 .5 kDa MBP sequence‐specific short hair‐pin RNA (shR‐NA) recombinant plasmids pGenesil‐1‐MBP‐3 were transfected into the human glioma cell line(U251) ,the cells of U251 was used as MBP silencing group ,the cells transfected with negative control plasmids used as negative control group ,and the cells transfected with liposomes used as blank control group .Real‐time PCR and Westernblot were used to detect the expression levels of the 21 .5 kDa MBP mRNA and protein in each group ,and the cell proliferation curve was measured by CCK‐8 assay ,the apoptosis rate was a‐nalysised by Flow cytometry .Results Both the mRNA and the protein expression levels of the 21 .5 kDa MBP of MBP silencing group were significantly lower than those in the control groups (P<0 .05);the cellular proliferation activity of the MBP silencing group decreased significantly (P<0 .05)while the cellular apoptotic rate increased significantly (P<0 .05) .Conclusion Silencing of the human cerebral 21 .5 kDa MBP gene may playa dual role in the inhibition of proliferation and the promotion of apoptosis of the glioma U251 cells .

Metabolic syndrome (MS) and breast cancer are common diseases of women. Triple negative breast cancer (TNBCs) is one type of breast cancer, which is of much attention in recent years. Important components of MS include central obesity, high blood sugar, high triglycerides and low level of high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C), which increased the inci-dence risk of TNBCs. Common biomarkers of MS including insulin, adiponectin and leptin play an important role in the oc-currence and development of breast cancer, especially TNBCs. Insulin-like growth factor-IImRNA binding protein 3 (IMP3, an oncofetal protein) may be TNBCs’new invasive cancer biomarkers. In this paper, the research progress on the relation-ship between MS and TNBCs is reviewed.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of Vitreoretinal surgery for retinal detachment due to macular hole in high myopia. Methods:20 cases( 20 eyes) of retinal detachment due to macular hole in high myopia from Dec. 2000 to Apr. 2004 were analysed retrospectively. 3 cases were male and 17 were female, with a following up of 2 to 30 months (15 months in average). The Pars Plana Vitrectomy with long acting gas or silicon oil tamponade were used. The patients were kept face down at least 7 days after the surgery. Results:5 eyes used silicon oil and the others used gas tamponade. The successful rate of retinal reattachment was 80% ( 16/20) with one procedure in a month after the surgery . There were 4 cases of retinal redetachment in the follow-up duration, among them 3 cases used gas and one used silicon oil tamponade. All of them refused to accept another surgery. There were 3 eyes ( 15%) of the best corrected visual acuity greater than or equal to 0.05 before surgery and 11 eyes ( 55%) equal to or greater than 0.05 after the surgery. There was a significant difference between them(P= 0.0386 ). The main complications were slight retinal bleeding in 3 eyes ( 15%); second glaucoma in 2 eyes (10 %); nuclear cataract in 4 eyes ( 20%). Conclusion:Vitreoretinal surgery for retinal detachment with macular hole is available to improve visual acuity in high myopia.

A 28-year-old male patient presented with a 4-year history of a solitary brown mass, and a 1-year history of multiple small papules on the left chest. Skin examination showed a quasi-round brown firm mass measuring about 1.2 cm × 1.1 cm × 1.0 cm in size on the left chest, and several brown papules with diameters ranging from 3 to 5 mm on the right side of the mass; no enlarged lymph nodes were detected in the left axilla on palpation. The mass and papules were completely resected, and histopathological examination showed clustered nevus cells in the superficial dermis of the mass and small papules, and the diagnosis of intradermal nevus was considered. There was a desmoplastic nodule in the mass, nevus cells were scattered among the fibers in the nodule, and giant nevus cells were also observed; the nevus cells in the nodule were relatively larger, epithelioid or spindle-shaped with round or spindle-shaped nuclei, obvious nucleoli, and rare mitotic figures. Immunohistochemical study showed that the nevus cells in both the intradermal nevus and proliferative nodule were positive for S100; the nevus cells in the superficial dermis of the intradermal nevus were positive for Melan-A and HMB45, while the nevus cells in the proliferative nodule were negative for Melan-A and HMB45; both the intradermal nevus and proliferative nodule tissues showed a Ki-67 index of 1%, positive staining for CD34, but negative staining for P16 and P63. Finally, the patient was diagnosed with intradermal nevus associated with desmoplastic nodule.

The study is to prepare taste masking and enteric-coated clarithromycin granules by melting and fluid bed coating technology. Clarithromycin and matrix materials were melted at a certain temperature, and then made into particles by fluidized bed coating. X-ray powder diffraction and scanning electron microscopy were used to identify the crystal and morphology of drug loading granules. In vitro dissolution method was used for the observation of the drug release behavior. The results showed that the drug particles size range was 0.2 - 0.6 mm; the crystal form of clarithromycin in the granule did not change; enteric-coated granules accumulated release in 0.1 mol L(-1) hydrochloric acid in 2 h was less than 10%, while in pH 6.8 phosphate buffer in 1 h was more than 80%. The taste masking and enteric-coated clarithromycin granules not only have good taste masking effect, but also have a good release behavior. It is expected to have better clinical application.
