Peritoneal macrophages were obtained from normal LACA mice and the phagocy-tosis of neutral red was measured after 24 hr.incubation with different opiate peptidesand ACTH.?-endorphin(10~-(10)-10~_6M)and dynorphin A(10~_(10)-1(10~_6M)were found tostimulate the phagocytosis and these increases in phagocytosis could be reversed byopiate receptor blocker,naltrexone(10~_5M).[D-Ala~2,D-Leu~5]-enkephalin(10~_(12)-10~_6M),however,had no effect on the phagocytosis.ACTH(10~_(10)-10~_6M)was fo-und to have suppressive effect on the phagocytosis.These results suggest that diffe-rent opiate peptides may cause different effects on phagocytosis of macrophages andthe increase in phagocytosis induced by ?-endorphin and dynorphin appears to be me-diated by opiate receptors on peritoneal macrophages.

Objective To investigate the relationship between metabolic syndrome and colorectal cancer. And to further prevent the risks of colorectal cancer and provide methods and evidences.Methods A literature search was performed through CNKI,Wanfang,PubMed,Ovidsp,Cochrane data within the time limit of November 2005 to November 2015.According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,the studies were screened and the data were extracted.Then,meta -analysis was performed using Review Manager 5.3.5.Results A total of 14 studies(6 case-control studies and 8 cohort studies)met the inclusion criteria.Meta analysis showed that with metabolic syndrome had a higher risk of colorectal cancer incidence compared with the control group without metabolic syndrome(OR =1.18,95%CI:1.33cv1.22,P <0.05).Stratified analysis showed that metabolic syndrome increased the risk of color-ectal cancer between men and women population.The combined effect of the OR respectively (OR =1.12,95%Cl:1.09 -1.14,P <0.05;OR =1.13,95%Cl:1.05 -1.22,P <0.05),the differences were statistically significant. Meta analysis showed that metabolic syndrome was not associated with an increased risk of colon cancer mortality (OR =1.05,95%CI:0.92 -1.19,P =0.46).Conclusion This meta analysis indicate a positive association between meta-bolic syndrome and colorectol cancer incidence,and the association has no gender differences.The metabolic syndrome does not increase the risk of colon cancer death.More prospective cohort study needed to further confirm it.

Objective To explore the effects of ciliary neurotrophic factor on cell cycle and expression of Fos protein in cultured astrocytes from cerebral cortex of rat in vitro Methods Astrocytes from cerebral cortex of rat were cultured in vitro.The cultured astrocytes were treated with ciliary neurotrophic factor(CNTF),and then cell cycle was measured by flow cytometer and Fos protein was examined by means of immunocytochemistry at different intervals. Results At 6h following CNTF treatment,astrocytes cell cycle process was promoted obviously,the percentage of cell in G-1/G-0 cycle phase was reduced,while that of G-2/M and proliferation index(PI) increased.The proliferous effect peaked at 12h,and then gradually declined at 24h,48h,but PI was higher than that of control group.The expression of Fos protein was enhanced from 2h to 24h after CNTF treatment,the pretreatment of dexamethasone inhibited the expression of Fos protein.Conclusion CNTF may promote proliferation and the expression of Fos protein in astrocytes.

Statins is first choice of hypercholesteroiemia. Recently, clinical investigations have shown that statins can correct blood pressure in hypertension patients accompanied with lipid abnormalities. This result can be observed not only in untreated patients but also in patients treated with antihypertensive drugs. But some researches did not support this result completely. To some extend, the mechanisms responsible for the hypotensive effect seem to be largely independent on the effect of statins on lipid profile, and may be related to the improvement of endothelial function and the regulation of angiotensin II receptors.

Objective Analyse and report the diagnosis and treatment process of vulvar epithelioid sarcoma, it provides a basis for rare case in clinic. [Methods] Through the analysis of the patient's il ness, treatment, and pathology examination, and the effect of the treatment of prognosis of vulvar epithelioid sarcoma of the summary, truly record the occurrence of vulvar epithelioid sarcoma development, treatment and prognosis.
