3.Tripchlorolide activates p-ERK and induces autophagy in lung cancer A549 cells
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 2016;32(9):1551-1555
AIM: To investigate the effects of tripchlorolide (TP) on proliferation and autophagy of human lung cancer A549 cells, and explore its mechanism.METHODS: MTT assay was performed to analyze the effect of TP on the viability of human lung cancer A549 cells.The A549 cells were treated with TP, and their autophagy was observed un-der the fluorescence microscope through acridine orange staining.Green fluorescence spots were observed by fluorescence microscopy through GFP-LC3 plasmid transfection experiment.The levels of LC3 and p-ERK in the A549 cells after TP treatment were determined by Western blot.RESULTS: The viability of human lung cancer A549 cells was significantly inhibited by TP in a dose-time dependent manner (P <0.05).The number of the intracellular acidic follicles dyed with bright red fluorescence was significantly increased after TP treatment in A549 cells.The number of green dot-like con-gregate autophagosomes in cell cytoplasm was significantly increased after TP treatment in the A549 cells transfected with GFP-LC3 plasmid, while the normal treatment only induced a few cells with autophagosome formation.At the same time, we did not observe the dot-like congregate autophagosomes after TP treatment in the A549 cells transfected with GFP-control plasmid.Compared with control group, the expression of LC3-II protein was up-regulated in A549 cells after TP treatment (P <0.01).Furthermore, treatment with TP in A549 cells for 48 h also led to a significant upregulation of phosphorylated form of ERK (P <0.01).In contrast, no significant change in the levels of total ERK protein was observed.Compared with 100 nmol/L TP group, TP +3-MA group down-regulated the protein levels of LC3-II (P <0.01) and p-ERK (P <0.01) in the A549 cells.CONCLUSION: TP significantly inhibits the growth of A549 lung cancer cells and induces the
autophagy, which may be correlated with upregulation of p-ERK protein.

RESULTS: The recovery and sustainment of visual acuity, and subsiding of macular edema of patients in drug intervention group were significantly better than that in control group.
CONCLUSION: PDR patients after vitrectomy actively orally take medicine to protect retina, which can improve vision and fundus rehabilitation.
6.Comparison of two different drug therapies for acute retinal necrosis syndrome
International Eye Science 2016;16(7):1366-1368
AIM: To investigate clinical efficacy of two drug therapies ( acyclovir with prednisone acetate tablets, ganciclovir with prednisone acetate tablets and aspirin) for acute retinal necrosis syndrome.
METHODS: Thirty patients (40 eyes) with acute retinal necrosis syndrome in our hospital were randomly divided into group A and B. Group A was treated with acyclovir with prednisone acetate tablets, and group B was given ganciclovir with prednisone acetate tablets and aspirin. Clinical effects in the two groups were observed and compared.
RESULTS: After treatment, the overall response rate in group B (90%) was obviously higher than that in group A (70%), both of two regimens were effective, without significant difference (P>0. 05). There was no significant difference on the pre - treatment visual acuity between the two groups (P>0. 05). After different treatments, the visual acuity in group B was ≥0. 5 in 12 eyes, 0. 1≤and<0. 5 in 4 eyes, 0. 02 ≤ and < 0. 1 in 3 eyes, and no photosensitive in 1 eye. The visual acuity in group A was≥0. 5 in 9 eyes, 0. 1≤and<0. 5 in 3 eyes, 0. 02≤and<0. 1 in 6 eyes, and no photosensitive in 2 eyes. The recovery of visual acuity in group B was obviously better than that in A group ( P < 0. 05). The incidence of complications such as retinal tear, herpes, mouth ulcers, chickenpox, viral encephalitis and central nervous system diseases in group B (10%) was significantly lower than that in A group (35%,P<0. 05).
CONCLUSION: Two drug therapies ( acyclovir with prednisone acetate tablets, ganciclovir with prednisone acetate tablets and aspirin ) both have positive therapeutic effect, but the latter can better restore visual acuity and decrease the complications.

Objective To study the feasibility and safety of hand-assisted laparoscopic hepatectomy combined with splenectomy. Methods Hand-assisted laparoscopic hepatectomy combined with splenectomy was performed in 3 patients. A midline epigastric or right subcostal incision was made for hand-assisted port. The attachments of the spleen were dissected with a harmonic scalpel and the pedicle of the spleen was severed with the Endo-GIA. The transection of the liver was conducted using the harmonic scalpel dissection and nonabsorbable polymer clipping. The cut surface of the liver was closed by interrupted sutures. Results The operation was successfully completed in all the 3 patients. The surgical time was 130 min, 115 min, and 145 min, and the blood loss was 350 ml, 50 ml, and 150 ml, respectively. No serious postoperative complications occurred. The postoperative hospital stay was 9, 7, and 11 days, respectively. Follow-up observations for 6, 23, and 5 months showed no recurrence. Conclusions Hand-assisted laparoscopic hepatectomy combined with splenectomy is feasible and safe in selected patients .

Objective To develop a protocol for ultrasound-guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) on hepatic tumors larger than 3.5 cm in diameter, and to evaluate its role in ablation treatment. Methods Mathematical analysis was performed to generate the preoperative protocol which included the least ablation (sphere) number and the optimal overlapping mode and procedure for adequately ablating a large and spherical target lesion. The target ablation volume consisted of a tumor plus a 0.5- 1.0 cm tumor-free margin. The operation method for electrode placement was also described. Based on this mathematical protocol, 113 patients with 124 hepatic tumors [( 4.75? 0.92)cm in diameter, ranging from 3.6- 7.0 cm] were enrolled and treated. Seventy-one patients had 76 primary and 42 had 48 metastatic hepatic tumors. Results Totally 554 ablations (electrode placements) were performed in 124 tumors. The tumor complete necrosis rate was 87.9% (109/124), the local recurrence rate 24.2% (30/124), the estimated mean time to local recurrence 17.3 months. Twenty-five patients had received 38 retreatments for the local recurrence (17 received one time, and 8 received two or three times). Major complications were found in 7 patients (6.2 %). Of them, only one patient who suffered from colon perforation one week after RFA treatment required surgical intervention. Conclusions A theoretic basis and clinical guidance in RFA of hepatic tumors larger than 3.5 cm might be provided. Treatment results indicated that the protocol might probably be used to improve complete necrosis rate and reduce local recurrence rate in ablation therapy. The protocol was firmed effective and feasible.
