Objective To investigate the role of T cell factor-4 (TCF-4) in the carcinogenesis of colorectal cancer. Methods Relevant references about TCF-4 and the carcinogenesis of colorectal cancer, which were published recently domestic and abroad, were collected and reviewed. Results For TCF-4 gene, multiple isoforms are generated by way of alternative splicing, which encode different proteins. TCF-4 protein is sequence-specific DNA binding protein and is incapable of activating or repressing transcription independently, but it can interact with distinct partners to lead to different effects through multiple domains. Conclusion TCF-4 might be viewed as nuclear vehicles targeting other auxiliary proteins to a specific set of promoters and functions as molecular switch during the carcinogenesis of colorectal cancer.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of infantile laryngopharyngeal reflux diseases(LPRD) with cyanosis as the main manifestation, improve diagnosis of the disease and avoid missed diagnosis.Methods:Clinical data of children diagnosed with LPRD at Shenzhen Children′s Hospital from September 2015 to October 2018 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Cyanosis was the predominant symptom in all 5 cases.The course ranged from 3 days to 4 months.Laryngomalacia was observed in 4 cases.Two patients were treated with esophageal atresia, 1 with esophageal stenosis and 1 with severe tracheomalacia.All 5 cases had vocal cord and arytenoid mucosa edema.The Ryan index was 65.92-1 444.5 in the upright position and 3.73-431.44 in the supine position.Three cases were treated with erythromycin and ceftriaxone according to the etiology.Two cases were treated with motilium at the same time, and 3 cases were with omeprazole oral.One case was recovered after 8 weeks and the Ryan index became normal.Symptoms were alleviated in 3 patients after 4 weeks, drugs were stopped by parents.One case still had cyanosis during medication, the symptoms were significantly relieved after tracheal stent implantation.Conclusion:LPRD is closely related to children′s respiratory and digestive system diseases.LPRD should be taken into account when children show unexplained clinical symptoms of respiratory and digestive system, and laryngoscopy and DX-pH detection should be performed as soon as possible to avoid missed diagnosis.

BACKGROUND: Injectable artificial bone composite has been reported to consider as a moulding filler of vertebrae at the histology level; however, the therapeutic effect needs to be further studied at the level of axial pressure capacity. OBJECTIVE: To explore the axial pressure capacity of dogs with thoracolumbar fractures treated by injectable artificial bone composite. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A randomized controlled animal experiment was performed at the Animal Laboratory of Shenzhen Longgang Central Hospital from September 2008 to January 2009. MATERIALS: Type I and type II vertebral pedicle screw systems were provided by Tianjin Zhengtian Medical Device Company Limited; injectable artificial bone composite, which was made of coral-hydroxylapatite compound, recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (Academy of Military Medical Sciences), and 2% chitosan solution (the Second Military Medical University of Chinese PLA and Shanghai Qisheng Biomaterials Institute), was manufactured according to the methods provided by Yin et al. METHODS: A total of 20 1-year-old healthy dogs were randomly divided into treatment and control groups with 10 dogs in each group. The model of those dogs with thoracolumbar fractures was made by imitating falling accidents; thereafter, the dogs in the treatment group were treated with vertebral pedicle screw system internal fixation and vertebroplasty by filling the injured vertebrae with injectable artificial bones. The control group was treated with vertebral pedicle screw system internal fixation alone. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The maximum pressure intensity of injured vertebra, upper and lower vertebra at vertebral body center was detected using micro-computer pressure testing system after three months. RESULTS: The maximum pressure intensity at vertebral body center was not significant differences in the treatment group (100% cases) between injured vertebral body and its neighboring vertebral body, and axial loading was recovered. While that of 60% cases in the control group was significantly different (P

Objective To investigate the effect of IH764-3 on the leukocyte-mediated hypoxia-reoxygention injury of human brain microvascular endothelial cell (HBMVEC). Methods MTT assay was used to detect the survival of HBMVEC; gelatin zymography was used to check the activity of MMPs. The level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in leukocyte was determined via commercially available kit,and the indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to quantify the contents of TNF-?,IL-1?,IL-2 and INF-? in leukocyte culture medium.Results Survival of HBMVEC was impaired by hypoxia-reoxygenation,which was aggravated by supernatant of activated leukocytes but was attenuated by IH764-3. Leukocytes produced high level of MMP-9,ROS and cytokines (TNF-?,IL-1?,IL-2,IFN-?) after hypoxia-reoxygenation,the process was inhibited by IH 764-3. Furthermore,IH764-3 could effectively reverse hypoxia-reoxygenation injury of HBMVEC with supernatant of activated leukocytes. Conclusion IH764-3 can protect HBMVEC from leukocyte-involved hypoxia-reoxygenation injury by attenuating the activation of leukocytes and inhibiting the pathogenic effects of leukocytes products.
