Objective To observe the effect of high-dose vitamin C on MMP2 expression and invasive ability in PANC-1. Methods Transwell invasion assay was used to compare the invasive ability of PANC-1 cells in different concentrations of vitamin C treated groups. RT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect and compare the levels of MMP2 mRNA and protein expression in each group. Results Compared with the 0mM vitamin C treated group, the mRNA expression of MMP2 was significantly decreased in 1.0,5.0,10. 0mM group(0. 510 ±0. 004 vs 0. 792 ±0. 006, 0. 391 ±0. 007 vs 0. 792 ±0. 006, 0. 282 ±0. 008vs 0. 792 ± 0. 006, P ＜ 0. 05 ). Compared with the 0mM vitamin C treated group, the protein expression of MMP2 was significantly decreased in 1.0,5.0,10. 0mM group(0. 519 ±0. 004 vs 0. 761 ±0. 014,0. 310 ±0. 007 vs 0. 761 ±0. 014,0. 297 ±0. 008 vs 0. 761 ±0. 014, P ＜0. 05). Compared with the 0mM vitamin C treated group, the invaded cell number was significantly decreased in 1.0,5.0,10. 0mM groups ( 452 ± 22 vs653 ± 28,340 ± 32 vs 653 ± 28,409 ± 33 vs 653 ± 28, P ＜ 0. 05 ). Conclusion High-dose vitamin C can decrease the expression of MMP2 in PANC-1 cells, and weaken its invasive ability.

Objective To research the expression of Sp3 andβ‐Catenin in HCC and study the assessable factors of them for prognosis in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma .Methods Western blot and RT‐PCR methods were used to detect the expres‐sion of Sp3 andβ‐Catenin in HCC and the liver tissue beside tumor among 49 cases .We analyzed the difference of these two indexes expressed in HCC and the liver tissue beside tumor .Then we detected the correlation between these two indexes and the character of clinic pathology ,and researched the correlation between Sp3 and the prognosis of HCC .Results The high expression rate of Sp3 in HCC was higher than that of liver tissue beside tumor(P<0 .05) according to Western blot and RT‐PCR ,the same toβ‐Catenin (P<0 .05) .Expression of Sp3 andβ‐Catenin were both related with size of tumor and degree of differentiation .Positive correlation existed between these two indexes according to Western blot method(r=0 .681 ,P=0 .000) and RT‐PCR method(r=0 .641 ,P=0 .000) .The prognosis of cases with high expression of Sp3 was poorer than the low expression cases(P<0 .05) .Conclusion Sp3 plays a promoter role in occurrence of HCC ,which is correlated with the grade malignancy of HCC .Sp3 might participated in occur‐rence and development of HCC via the Wnt pathway .

Objective:To study the effect of BuShen Prescription on metabolism of collagen Ⅰ in ovariectomized rats,which will provide experimental evidence for treating osteoporosis. Methods:50 Ovariectomized SD rats were randomLy divided into 5 groups,including normal control group,model group,positive control (OVX) group,Zuogui Wan group and Yougui Wan group,each group with 10 rats. After 12 weeks' routine feed,normal control group and model group were intragastric administrated with pure water,positive control group was intragastric administrated with conjugated estrogens water-solution,Zuogui Wan group was intragastric administrated with Zuogui Wan decoction,and Yougui Wan group was intragastric administrated with Yougui Wan decoction,then the PINP,DPYD/Cr,NTX/Cr were detected after ovariectomized rats were intragastric administrated with the schedule for 12 weeks. Results :There was statistically significant difference between Zuogui Wan,Yougui Wan group and model group in decreasing the PINP,DPYD/Cr and NTX/Cr (P

Objective:To explore the genetic background in monochorionic diamniotic (MCDA) twins discordant for karyotypes.Methods:This study retrospectively analyzed four pregnant women who were diagnosed as having MCDA twins with prenatal diagnostic indications by ultrasound at Maternity and Child Health Care of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from January 2016 to December 2019. Dual amniocentesis was performed for all cases guided by ultrasound and the twin amniotic fluids were taken for karyotyping and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array testing. Zygosity was determined by SNP genotype analysis.Results:The karyotypes of four MCDA twins were 47,XX,+18 and 46,XX, 45,X and 46,XX, 47,XXY[17]/46,XY[33] and 47,XXY, and 47,XX,+21 and 46,XX, respectively. The results of SNP were arr(18)×3 and arr(1-22,X)×2, arr(X)×1 and arr(1-22,X)×2, arr(X)×1~2,(Y)×1 and arr(X)×2,(Y)×1, arr(21)×3 and arr(21)×2~3. All of them were monozygotic twins according to the SNP genotypes. Three out of the four cases chose to terminate the pregnancy due to fetal chromosomal abnormalities and one was lost to follow-up. One gave birth to a healthy child in the next pregnancy.Conclusions:Clinicians should be alert to the discordant karyotypes in MCDA twins, of which the mechanism is yet to be explored.

This paper presents a method of noninvasive and continuous measurement of blood pressure by pulse wave. The method is realized by extracting the characteristic parameters of human brachial artery pulse wave and developing the stepwise regression equation. The experiment results showed that blood pressure measured by this method was well correlated with which measured by mercury sphygmomanometer. The mean difference of blood pressure was smaller than 3 mmHg, and the standard deviation was smaller than 5 mmHg.

In order to control real-time sampling and achieve smooth scroll wave in the epicardial mapping system, which has 128 channels and a sampling rate of 2kHz/channel, we have designed a user interface using Direct-Draw in cooperation with multiple-thread technology and extracting method. This method has proven to be feasible in animal experiment.

Objective We tried to observe the effects of Chinese herb fumigation and washing combined with electromyographic biofeedback on stroke patients with muscle cramp on limbs.Methods 84 patients who had muscle cramp on limbs were selected and divided into two groups randomly,namely the intervention group and the control group and both groups had 42 stroke patients.The intervention group was treated with routine treatment,Chinese herbal fumigation and washing and electromyographic biofeedback treatment.The control group received only routine treatment and electromyographic biofeedback treatment.We had compared and analyzed the Ashworth Spasticity Scale and the Daily Life Abihty Score (Barthel index) of the two groups at the time of the pre therapy,two weeks after the treatment and at the end of the treatment(after four weeks),respectively.Results There were no significant differences between the two groups in Barthel index,however,there were significant differences in Ashworth Spasticity Scale scores between the two groups four weeks after treatment,t=-3.84,P ＜ 0.05.Conclusions The effect of Chinese herb fumigation and washing combining with the electromyo-graphic biofeedback treatment is better than usage of the electromyographic biofeedback treatment alone on stroke patients with muscle cramp on limbs.
