PURPOSE To sutdy the effects of dibutyl pathalate (DBP) on the proliferation and apoptosis of leukemic cells from patients suffering from acute leukemia. METHODS The cell culture in vitro was used to study the effect of DBP on the proliferation of leukemic cells, while agrose gel electrophoresis of DNA fragments was used to study the effect of DBP on apoptosis of leukemic cells. RESULTS DBP could inhibit the proliferation of leukemic cells got from patients suffering from acute leukemia in vitro. The percentage of inhibition were 24.24% and 36.33% respectively when leukemic cells were exposed to 50?g/ml and 200?g/ml DBP for 24 hours. Leukemic cells from acute myelogenous leukemia were more susceptive to DBP than those from acute lymphocytic leukemia. DBP also induced the leukemic cells from patients to die via apoptosis and showed typical "ladder" of DNA fragments for apoptotic cells in agrose gel electrophoresis. CONCLUSION DBP could clear the leukemic cells in bone marrows of patients suffering from acute leukemia by suppressing the growth of leukemic cells and inducing them to die via apoptosis.

Physical constitution theory is an important part of traditional Chinese medicine theory. Physical constitution is associated with the incidence, development and prognosis of diseases. Gene polymorphism is a result of the interaction between internal and external environments during the human evolution, and it is the reason for differences in biological characteristics and disease susceptibility of individuals. Current status of the research on physical constitution theory, lung cancer syndromes and gene polymorphism are summarized in this paper. Exploring lung cancer syndromes from the point of view of gene polymorphism may reveal the scientific connotation of lung cancer syndromes, and provide new evidence and method for diagnosis of lung cancer.

AlM: To observe the influence ofphacoemulsification on corneal endothelial cell in patients with the different level of HbA1c.METHODS:With case-control study, 164 eyes from 115 cataract patients were divided into four groups according to the preoperative HbA1c level. Control group A: 43 eyes from 30 cases without diabetes ( HbA1c≤6. 5%). Diabetes groups:group B was consisted of 38 eyes from 26 cases(HbA1c≤6. 5%), 40 eyes of 28 case was in group C (6. 5% 8. 0%). Corneal endothelial microscopy was used to detect the parameters like endothelial cell density ( CD ) , coefficient of variation ( CV ) , percentage of regular hexagonal cells (6A) between pre-operation and post-operation at 1d, 1, 2wk, 1mo. The results were analyzed.RESULTS: The endothelial cell density, CV and 6A cell had no significant difference in four groups before treatment (P>0. 05). The CD and 6A were decreased and CV was increased in all groups after operation of 1d, 1, 2wk and 1mo. The difference was statistically significant (P< 0. 05). There were statistical differences of 6A and CV in diabetes groups compared with control group ( P<0. 05). The decreasing of CD between group A and group B had no difference (P>0. 05). There were statistical differences of CD in group C and group D compared with group A (P<0. 05). There were statistical differences of CD, 6A and CV within diabetes groups (P<0. 05). CONCLUSlON: Cataract phacoemulsification had certain degree damage on corneal endothelial cell. Corneal endothelial appeared the minimal injury when the postoperative HbA1c≤6. 5%. For diabetic cataract patients, the higher HbA1c before, the heavier damaged after the surgery.

BACKGROUND:BioFlex system as a new pedicle screw fixation of dynamic stabilization device has less been reported concerning its biomechanics.
OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of BioFlex system fixation at different decompression ranges on disc stress at adjacent segments.
METHODS:Eight samples of fresh calf spines were used. Under physiologic axial loads (500, 900, 2 300 N), electronic universal testing machine was used to simulate the lumbar spine at three physiological states (standing, sitting and bending, standing on a portable 20 kg weight and bending). Progressive decompression modeling for each specimen and dividing into five groups:(1) complete status group;(2) complete status+BioFlex group;(3) partial laminectomy+BioFlex group;(4) 1/2 medial facetectomy+BioFlex group;(5) total facetectomy+BioFlex group. Strain gauges were used to record the stress of disc annulus. Electronic universal testing machine was used to record load-displacement curve and calculate stiffness.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The stress of the adjacent segment of the intervertebral disc increased with the expansion of the range of decompression. Compared with the complete status, stress obviously increased after BioFlex fixation, showing significant differences (P<0.05). The stress was significantly increased in the 1/2 medial facetectomy+BioFlex group compared with the partial laminectomy+BioFlex group (P<0.05). However, no significant difference was detected between the partial laminectomy+BioFlex group and complete status+BioFlex group, and between total facetectomy+BioFlex group and 1/2 medial facetectomy+BioFlex group (P>0.05). (2) Axial stiffness reduced with the expansion of the range of decompression. Compared with the complete status, axial stiffness noticeably increased after BioFlex fixation. The difference was not significant among four kinds of reconstruction structures. (3) These findings confirmed that after BioFlex fixation, with the expansion of the range of decompression, the stress of adjacent segments of intervertebral disc gradual y increased, but different ranges of decompression cannot affect the stiffness of reconstruction structure.

ObjectiveTo investigate the inhibition of telomerase activity of colorectal cancer by chemotherapeutic drugs.MethodsBy using telomerase repeat amplification protocol (TRAP) combined with PAGE silver staining, we detected the telomerase activity of human colorectal cancer cell line HT-29 under the effect of cisplatin, doxorubicin, pirarubicin, mitomycin C, and 5-FU.ResultsIn high doses,no inhibition of tolemerase activity was found when cells were collected after only 4 hours of drug treatment, but the telomerase activity was completely inhibited by cisplatin when the drug was removed and cells were reculured for 20 hours. However, doxorubicin, pirarubicin, mitomycin C, 5-FU had no such effect. ConclusionCisplatin inhibits telomerase activity of human colon cancer cell HT-29, while other drugs had no such effect.

Objective To study the changes of collagen content in the esophageal tissue after stenting. Methods To select healthy adult dogs as experimental subjects.Esophageal stent was installed by the method of “autogenous fascia lata femoris transplantation and fixation",the dogs were killed at the end of 1,2,4 and 8 weeks,and the esophageal tissues with stent were taken out and studied by gross observation,light microscopy and electromicroscopy. The bulk density and distribution of collagen fiber were studied by special staining and computer technology.The content of P I CP and PⅢNP in restenosis tissue were measured by radio immunoassay(RIA).The contents of hydroxyproline and total amino acid(AA) in restenosis tissue were measured by amino acid analyser. Results At week 1 and 2 the inflammatory reaction occurred evidently in stenting esophagus with granulation and fibrosis,in some sites the esophageal tissue began to proliferate towards the lumen where the fibroblasts were in the state of active proliferation and secretion .The contents of hydroxyproline and total amino acid were significantly higher in the esophageal tissue within 1 and 2 weeks of stenting than those in normal esophagus.At week 4 and 8 esophageal lumen narrowed conspicuously,with a lot of fibrotic tissue and a little of inflammatory cells.The staining density of collagen elevated gradually within 4 weeks,there after the content of collagen was stabilized.The change of P I CP and PⅢNP accorded with that of collagen staining.The content of AA at week 4 increased significantly compared with that at week 2,its level was similar to that between 4 and 8 weeks. Conclusions Re-stenosis mainly expressed as fibrosis. At week 4,8 the fibrosis stabilized gradually with the lessening of inflammatory reaction. The content of collagen in re-stenosis tissue elevated within 4 weeks,and stablilized after week 4,it was in accordance with the pathological changes of re-stenosis.
