2. Antiaddictive indole alkaloids in Ervatamia yunnanensis and their bioactivity
Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 2006;27(1):92-96
Objective: To investigate the constituents of indole alkaloids in Ervatamia yunnanensis and their antiaddictive bioactivities. Methods: The preliminary alkaloids (TEYA) were extracted by 95 % EtOH from the stems of Ervatamia yunnanensis. TEYA was then purified by silica gel and Sephadex LH20 column chromatography repeatedly and its structure was identified with spectral analysis. The antiaddictive effects of these indole alkaloids were evaluated by Conditioned Place Preference (CPP) experiments. Results: Nine indole alkaloids were obtained and identified as: coronaridine (1) , voacangine (2), 3-R-ethoxycoronaridine (3), 3-S-ethoxycoronaridine (4), 19-epi-heyneanine (5), heyneanine (6), 19-epi-voacristine (7), coronaridine hydroxyindolenine (8) and 12-methoxyl-voaphylline (9). Among them voacangine (2) and 19-epi-voacristine (7) were effective in prevention and treatment of addiction induced by morphine in rats (n=8). Conclusion: Compounds 3, 4, 8, and 9 have been isolated from Ervatamia yunnanensis for the first time and coronaridine-type indole alkaloids are the main antiaddictive constituents of E. yunnanensis.

Objective To explore the significance of 1.5-Tesla MRI in the early diagnosis of prostate cancer,and analyze the imaging features in T2WI which are helpful for the diagnosis on early prostate cancer.Methods The clinical data of patients with PSA < 20 μg/L who received prostate biopsy between Feb.2006 and Jan.2011 were reviewed including pelvic MRI and biopsy results.We retrospectively analyzed T2WI image features and evaluated the signal of peripheral zone,seminal vesicles,prostate capsule and the relationship with their surrounding tissues.The results of the reading were analyzed with reference to histopathologic evaluation of prostate biopies.Results Among 359 patients,137 patients were diagnosed prostate cancer and 332 cases were found with low signal lesions on peripheral zone of T2WI.Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that age and PSA are closely related to the diagnosis of prostate cancer (P < 0.05).Low signal lesions on peripheral zone of T2WI are more helpful for the diagnosis of prostate cancer on the image.Number,shape,margin of lesions,the contour of the prostatic capsule,the boundary of peripheral zone and transitional zone are significantly associated with the diagnosis of prostate cancer.Through multivariate logistic regression analysis,it was found that age (P < 0.05),PSA (P < 0.05),prostate volume (P < 0.05),lesion shape (flaky vs nodular,P < 0.05 ; diffuse vs nodular,P < 0.05) and the contour of the prostatic capsule (disappearing vs completely clear,P < 0.05) are risk factors of prostate cancer.The areas under receiver operating characteristic curve are 0.833 (P < 0.05).Conclusions In T2WI,lesion shape and the contour of the prostatic capsule are risk factors of prostate cancer.Age,PSA,prostate volume are also significantly associated with the diagnosis of prostate cancer.

Objective To explore the clinical value of image gradings of T2 weighted imaging (T2WI) and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) for prostate cancer diagnosis in patients with prostate specific antigen (PSA) less than 20 μg/L.Methods A total of 133 patients with PSA<20 μg/L who received prostate biopsies in our hospital from December 2011 to January 2013 were recruited.The prostate was divided into six regions in MRI images.T2WI and DWI image gradings on each region in peripheral zone were evaluated with reference to histopathological evaluation of prostate biopsies.The significance of grading system for the diagnosis of prostate cancer in the two scanning methods alone or in combination were compared.Results 60 patients were diagnosed as prostate cancer.The positive biopsy rates were 2.8%,13.5%,20.4%,34.6%,52.6% and 88.9%,respectively in grade 0-5 based on T2WI imaging grading.The positive biopsy rates were 11.1%,16.1%,48.5%,71.0% and 86.1%,respectively in grade 1-5 based on T2WI+ DWI imaging grading.The positive biopsy rate was significantly increased with the increments of pre-established T2WI and T2WI+DWI image gradings (Z=-9.8552,-13.4148,both P<0.0001).Receiver operating characteristic analysis showed that the diagnostic capability was better in T2WI combined with DWI than in T2W1 alone in prostate cancer detection (AUC:0.743 vs.0.715,P=0.0072).Conclusions T2WI image grading can predict the risk of prostate cancer in patients with PSA<20 μg/L,and DWI can enhance the ability to predict prostate cancer.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the effects of periodontal treatment on the clinical response, systemic inflammatory parameters, and metabolic control of type 2 diabetes patients with moderate to severe periodontitis.
METHODSA total of 56 patients with mean clinical attachment level (CAL)>3 mm were included in the subgroup analysis. A repeated-measures ANOVA (group factor: treatment group and control group; time factor: initial visit, 1.5, 3, and 6 months) was used to analyze the probing depth (PD), CAL, bleeding on probing (BOP), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and fasting plasma glucose.
RESULTSSignificantly lower PD (F=62.898, P-0.000), CAL (F=51.263, P-0.000), BOP (F=75.164, P=0.000), hsCRP (F=6.391, P=0.010), HbA1c(F=4.536, P=0.011), and fasting plasma glucose level (F= 3.073, P=0.031) were observed after therapeutic periodontal improvement. The inter-group differences for PD (t=-2.050, P=0.045), BOP (t=-4.538, P=0.000), and hsCRP (t=-2.261, P=0.028) were statistically significant after therapy.
CONCLUSIONNon-surgical periodontal treatment can effectively improve periodontal status, circulating inflammatory status, and metabolic control of diabetic patients with moderate to severe periodontitis.

Objective:To compare immune effects of hepatitis B-BCG combined vaccine and hepatitis B vaccine.Methods:The vaccines were administered to the guinea pig at 0, 1, 2 months. The tests were divided into three parts. The immune effects were compared in three kinds of the combined vaccine and hepatitis B vaccine(Part One), in three lots of the combined vaccine and hepatitis B vaccine(Part Two), in the group of combined vaccine and the group of hepatitis B vaccine and BCG(Part Three). After 1 month of each vaccine dose, serum specimens were measured for anti-HBs by ELISA.Results:The several studies have documented the serum anti-HBs concentritious in the group of combined vaccine in first dose were lower than those of the group of control, and the data showed no significantly difference. However, anti-HBs levels of the combined vaccine group in second vaccine dose and third vaccine dose were higher than those of the control group, and this difference was no longer statistically significant in group of combined vaccine and control, and among groups of combined vaccine.Conclusion:The immune efficacy of HBsAg in group of combined vaccine is similar to the group of hepatitis B vaccine in three doses immunization schedules.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical characteristic and treatment response of the Gleason 5 + 5 prostate cancer and to summarize the prognostic factor of such patients. MethodsFrom January 2005 to May 2010,21 cases of Gleason 5 + 5 prostate cancer were enrolled in this study.The average age was 73 years and the pre-treatment PSA was 60.8 ng/ml.Six of the 21 cases had a PSA level ≤20 ng/ml.The maximal androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in the form of castration and Casodex or fluctamide was carried out once the diagnosis was made.Bone metastasis was revealed in 16 cases.PSA levels were tested at the 4th month and then every 3 months after the castration.The observation endpoint was 6 months.Extracorporeal beam irradiation or the systemic chemotherapy was carried out if the PSA did not drop to a normal range after 6 months. ResultsIn the study group with initial PSA > 20 ng/ml,the PSA did not drop to normal range in 5 cases; of which 4 had bone metastasis.With systemic chemotherapy,3 cases died within 1 year.Another case,with localized disease,received an extracorporeal beam irradiation and died within 1 year due to progression of the tumor.Among the remaining 10 cases sensitive to total androgen blockage,7 survived through the end of the study period.One case had PSA recurrence in month seven after the initial therapy and died at month 19.One case had PSA recurrence at month 22 and died at month 36.The patient had his PSA augmented at month 24 after total androgen blockage and the patient passed away 4 months later.Of the 6 cases who had an initial PSA ≤20 ng/ml 4 died within one year. ConclusionsGleason 5 +5 prostate cancer is relatively resistant to ADT with a worse prognosis,especially for the cases with a nadir PSA >4 ng/ml after 6 months’ ADT.The patients who had an initial PSA ≤20 ng/ml might have an unsatisfactory clinical outcome.
