Objective To determine the expression of c-myc and CD24 in colorectal carcinoma,colo-rectal polyp and normal mucosa,and to explore the role and correlation of them in the carcinogenesis of colorec-tal carcinoma. Methods The expression of c-myc and CD24 in colorectal carcinoma(n = 60),colorectal ade-nomatous polyp(n = 45),colorectal hyperplastic polyp(n = 15)and the adjacent non-cancerous tissue(n =30)was observed by immunohistochemical assay. Results The positive rate of c-myc in colorectal carcinoma were 73. 3% ,significantly higher than that in colorectal adenomatous polyp 44. 4%( χ2 = 9. 016 8,P <0. 01),colorectal hyperplastic polyp 13. 3%(χ2 = 18. 215 9,P < 0. 01)and adjacent non-cancerous tissue 6. 7%(χ2 = 25. 133 0,P < 0. 01);the positive rate of CD24 in colorectal carcinoma was 76. 7% ,significantly higher than that in colorectal hyperplastic polyp 6. 7%(χ2 = 25. 133 0,P < 0. 01)and adjacent non-cancerous tissue 3. 3%(χ2 = 43. 107 4,P < 0. 01). c-myc expression in colon cancer was significantly correlated with cancer site(χ2 = 8. 352 3,P < 0. 01),lymph node metastasis(χ2 = 4. 275 1,P < 0. 05),differentiation (χ2 = 4. 115 3,P < 0. 05)and TNM stage(χ2 = 5. 739 9,P < 0. 05). CD24 expression in colon cancer was significantly correlated with cancer size(χ2 = 9. 333 6,P < 0. 01),lymph node metastasis(χ2 = 7. 693 0,P <0. 01),differentiation(χ2 = 5. 870 0,P < 0. 05)and TNM stage(χ2 = 4. 498 7,P < 0. 05). There was a pos-itive correlation relationship between CD24 and c-myc in colorectal carcinoma tissue(χ2 = 10. 824 9,r = 0. 39, P < 0. 05). Conclusion The expression of c-myc and CD24 are high in colorectal cancer,having a significant correlation with some of the clinicaopathological features. c-myc is likely to act as a downstream target gene of CD24 signaling pathway,whose expression is probably regulated by CD24 in colorectal carcinoma tissue.

The rapid mutation and widely spread of duck hepatitis A virus (DHAV) lead to the vast economic loss of the duck industry. To prepare and evaluate bivalent inactivated vaccine laboratory products of DHAV, 6 strains were screened from 201 DHAV-1 strains and 38 DHAV-3 strains by using serotype epidemiological analysis in most of the duck factory. Vaccine candidate strains were selected by ELD50 and LD50 tests in the 6 strains. Continuously passaged, the 5th passaged duck embryos bodies grinding fluid was selected as vaccine virus seeds. The virus seeds were treated with formaldehyde and water in oil in water (W/O/W) emulsions, making into three batches of two bivalent inactivated vaccine laboratory products. The safety test, antibody neutralization test, challenged protection and cross immune protection experiment suggested that the vaccines possessed good safety, and neutralizing antibodies were detected at 7th day and the challenged protection rate reached 90% to 100% at the 14th and 21st day. Moreover, immune duration of ducklings lasted more than five weeks. However, cross-immunity protection experiments with DHAV-SH and DHAV-FS only had 20%-30%. The two bivalent inactivated vaccine laboratory products of duck viral hepatitis were effective and reliable, providing a new method as well as a new product for DHAV prevention and control.

Objective Stanford type A acute aortic dissection is a life-threatening medical condition with high rates of morbidity and mortality that requires surgical repair, on an emergency basis. The extent of aortic arch repair that should be carried out during emergency surgery of this type is controversial. This study was conducted to report clinical experience on aortic arch repair and determine surgical indication, optimal operative procedures and strategy for Stanford type A acute aortic dissection. Methods 210 consecutive patients with acute Stanford A aortic dissection who underwent aortic arch replacement combined with implantation of stented elephant trunk into the descending aorta between August 2005 and August 2010. Surgical procedures included hemi-aortic arch replacement in 92 patients, subtotal aortic arch replacement in 50 patients and total aortic arch replacement in 68 patients. All operations were performed with the aid of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest and selective antegrade cerebral perfusion (SACP). Enhanced computed tomography scanning was performed to evaluate the postoperative outcomes, particularly the fate of the false lumen remaining in the descending thoracic aorta by aortic arch replacement combined with implantation of stented elephant trunk during follow up. Results Average cardiopulmonary bypass time was (146 ±52) min. The average cross clamp time was(93 ±25)min and average selective cerebral perfusion and circulatory arrest time was(35 ±14)min. The overall in-hospital mortality was 4. 8% (10/210) and morbidity was 8. 6% ( 18/210). Postoperative complications included acute renal failure, stroke, mediastinitis and respiratory insufficiency. During the follow-up period [mean (27 ± 18) months, ranged 2 to 60 months], 1 patient underwent reoperation due to the descending thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysm. There was no late death. Follow-up enhanced CT scanning showed about 74% false lumens obliterated at the level of the distal border of the stent graft post operation. Conclusion Open aortic arch replacement is an effective approach and provides acceptable outcomes for type A acute aortic dissection. Optimal treatment strategy is the key factor to success in emergency surgical intervention.
