Objective To study the antitumor effects of photodynamic therapy (PDT)treated by ovarian cancer cell lysates in rat epithelial ovarian cancer in vivo. Methods Female Fischer344 rats of 6 -8 weeks were allocated to four groups ( n = 8 each) : PDT group ( inoculated intraperitoneal with PDT tumor cell lysates), freeze/thaw group ( inoculated intraperitonealy with freeze-thaw tumor cell lysates), normal saline group (inoculated intraperitoneal with normal saline) and control group. Rat epithelial ovarian cancer NuTu19 cells were injected into all rats by intraperitoneal at day 7,while injected with normal saline in control group. The number of tumor specific interferon-γ (IFN-γ) secreting splenocytes was quantified by enzyme linked immunospot(ELISPOT) assay, the cytotoxic T lymphocyte(CTL) activity of splenocytes was measured by lactate dehydrogenase(LDH) analysis and tumor growth and the survival time of rats were also observe& Results Stimulated by PDT tumor cell lysates, the number of tumor specific IFN-γ secreting splenocytes in PDT group, freeze/thaw group, normal saline group and control group were 448. 8±34. 2, 211.2±47.9,43.3 ± 11.1,16.1 ± 2.4 respectively, which were significant differences among of them ( P < 0.05). Stimulated by freeze/thaw tumor cell lysates, the number of tumor specific IFN-γ, secreting splenocytes in four groups were 151.7 ± 22.6,188.7 ± 53.0, 18.2 ± 12.2,8.8 ± 7.7 respectively, which were not significant differences among of them ( P>0.05 ). Cytotoxicity of splenocytes of PDT group increased significantly than that in other three groups(P <0.05). Except rats in control group were all alive until the experiment ended, the mean survival time of other rats were 234 d in PDT group, 171 d in freeze/ thaw group and 168 d in normal saline group, which in PDT group was significantly higher than those in freeze/thaw group and normal saline group ( P<0.05 ). Conclusions Rats treated by PDT tumor cell lysates could produce antitumor effects in vivo, which shown that induce tumor-specific immune response and prolong the life span.

As an important member of metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR), metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 (mGluR1) plays an important role in the signal transduction of central nervous system. Selective mGluR1 antagonists can block the signaling pathway activated by mGluR1 and exert a series of physiological actions including analgesia, antianxiety, antidepression, etc. Currently, the discovery and modification of selective mGluR1 antagonists have become a hot research focus. This paper reviews the structural catalogs of selective mGluR1 antagonists and their structure-activity relationships in the last decade.

Objective To investigate effect of paclitaxel on expression of programmed death ligand-1 ( PD-L1 ) in the surface of cervical cancer TC-1 cells and its mechanism. Methods ①The cells were divided into two groups: paclitaxel group, paclitaxel combined with PKD blocker (G? 6976) group. There were 4 concentration gradient and 5 holes for each group, and each hole has its corresponding concentration of drugs. Influence of paclitaxel on TC-1 cell viability and effect of PKD blocker G? 6976 on IC50 value of paclitaxel were evaluated by MTT method.②The cells were divided into 0. 9% sodium chloride solution ( NS) group and paclitaxel group, There were 5 holes of each group. Effect of paclitaxel on PD-L1 expression on the surface of TC-1 cells were measured by immunohistochemistry.③The cells were divided into 4 groups:NS+DMSO group, G? 6976 group, paclitaxel group and paclitaxel+G? 6976 group. There were 5 holes for each group. Effect of paclitaxel and G? 6976 on PD-L1 expression on the surface of TC-1 cells were measured by immunohistochemistry. The expressions of PD-L1 on the surface of cells were measured by immunofluorescence treated with different drugs. Results The IC50 value of paclitaxel was 40 μg·mL-1 in paclitaxel group, and 38. 9 μg·mL-1 in paclitaxel combined with PKD blocker G? 6976 group, without significant difference between the two groups (P>0. 05). The expression of PD-L1 in the surface of TC-1 cells were significantly higher in paclitaxel group than in negative control group [(88. 48±13. 44)% vs. (39. 59±5. 99)%, P<0. 05]. The expression of PD-L1 in the surface of TC-1 cells was (79. 7%±4. 7)% after treatment with paclitaxel combined with PKD blocker G? 6976 for 24 h, and it was significantly lower than that in paclitaxel group [(96. 8±2. 5)%, P<0. 05]. Conclusion Paclitaxel promotes the expression of PD-L1 in the surface of TC-1 cells, which could be significantly inhibited by blocking PKD pathway. Paclitaxel may exert its effect through PKD pathway.

Objective To investigate the relationship of compression area, time and weight as risky factors with local injury and systemic pathophysiological responses in rats so as to establish repeatable experimental model of crush syndrome. Methods A total of 144 male SD rats were divided into two groups, ie, mortality investigation group and biochemical indicator investigation group. Every group included the same 18 subgroups based on 18 kinds of combination with different levels of compression area (the right or both hind limbs), time (4, 6, 8 hours) and weight (2, 3, 4 kg). The circumference of the compressed hind limbs of all rats were measured and serum potassium (K+), serum creatine phosphokinase (CK), creatinine and carbamide were measured too before compression and three hours after decompression. Incidence of myoglobinuria of all rats was recorded. Muscles and kidneys were evaluated morphologically. Results The compressed hind limbs of all rats swelled significantly after three hours of reperfusion (P < 0. 05). All serum K + , CK, CR and BUN were increased significantly with the increase and prolongation of the compression area, time and weight (P < 0.05). Signs of direct cellular damage and ischemia-reperfusion injury were found in histology specimens of local compressed muscle.Hyperemia of glomeruli and renal tubule was found in the kidneys. Renal tubular necrosis and renal tubular cast were observed in group with compression weight ≥3 kg and compression duration ≥6 hours.Conclusions Increase and prolongation of the compression area, time and weight can aggravate the severity of crush injury. Compression area is more risky factor of severe crush injury. Both hind limbs ascompression area, compression weight ≥ 3 kg and compression duration ≥ 6 hours can be the effective experimental conditions for establishment of crush syndrome model in rats.

Objective To compare the effects of propofol versus isoflurane on brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEP) and explore the difference in the effects of the two anesthetics on the brainstem. Methods Thirty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 20-50 yr without heating disorder, scheduled for elective surgery performed under general anesthesia were randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 15 each): propofol group (group P) and isoflurane group (group Ⅰ). SpO2, PET CO2, BIS and BAEP were continuously monitored before and during anesthesia. Anesthesia was induced by propofol administered by TCI or isoflurane inhalation. Tracheal intubation was facilitated with vecuronium. The patients were mechanically ventilated. PET CO2 was maintained at 35-40 mm Hg and SpO2 at 98%-100%. After intubation BIS was maintained at 70 and 50 respectively ,the latency of the wave Ⅰ , Ⅱ and Ⅴ and the inter-peak latency (IPL) betwecn wave Ⅰ -Ⅲ , Ⅲ-Ⅴ and Ⅰ -Ⅴ were recorded.Results In group P there was no significant difference in the latency of the wave Ⅰ , Ⅲ and Ⅴ and the IPL between wave Ⅰ - Ⅲ , Ⅲ - Ⅴ and Ⅰ - Ⅴ between the baseline before anesthesia and at BIS 70 and 50. In group Ⅰ the latency of wave Ⅲ and Ⅴ and the IPL between wave Ⅰ - Ⅲ , Ⅲ - Ⅴ and Ⅰ - Ⅴ were significantly longer at BIS 50 than the baseline before anesthesia, while the latency of wave Ⅲ and Ⅴ and the IPL between wave Ⅰ -Ⅲ andⅠ -Ⅴ at BIS 50 were significantly longer than that at BIS 70. At BIS 50 the latency of wave Ⅴ and the IPL between wave Ⅰ -Ⅴ were significantly longer in group Ⅰ than in group P. Conclusion At comparable depth of anesthesia propofol exerts less depressant effects on BAEP indicating less depression of brainstem.

Objective To explore the value of strain rate imaging (SRI) technology in the diagnosis of hypertension patient with re-gional left ventricular early diastolic dysfunction. Methods 50 essential hypertension patients were divided into hypertension Group Ⅰ and Group Ⅱ, including 31 patients with normal left ventricular and 19 patients with left ventricular hypertrophy. 25 healthy people were used as the control group. SRI was done in the six different basal myocardial segments and the parameters of SRI were compared with that of Doppler tissue imaging (DTI) and pulse Doppler (PW). Results In the hypertension group, SRe of the six different basal myocardial segments was lower than that in the control group (P<0.05), but (SRa) of hypertension group was higher (P<0.05). SRe was negatively correlated with the patients'illness development (r=-0.89, P<0.05), but SRa was positively correlated (r=0.97, P<0.05). And the SRe/SRa<1 detection rate of Group Ⅱ was higher than that in Group Ⅰ, and the ratio in the control group was lowest(P<0.05). Total detection rate of SRI (88%) was higher than Em/Am <1 of DTI (79.67%) and E/A < 1 of PW(60%), and these changes were more obvious in Group Ⅰ. SRI was higher than DTT and PW (P<0.05). Conclusion Compared with traditional technology and methods, SRI could pro-vide more accurate diagnoses to hypertension patient with regional left ventricular early diastolic dysfunction.
