Objective To evaluate the value of preoperative color Doppler flow imaging findings for predicting possible difficuulties encountered during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC).Methods Eighty-six Datients with acute cholecystitis underwent color Doppler flow imaging examination were divided into operation difficult group(67 cases)and operation easy group(19 cases)according to the diffculty score.The parameters were measured pre-operation including the volume of gallbladder,the thickness of the gallbladder wall,the condition of arterial flow in the gallbladder wall,the conditions of gallbladder cavity and gallbladder fossa and the intra-and extra-hepatic bile duet.The relationships among imaging results,operation difficulties and operation findings were investigated.Results Gallbladder volume,gallbladder wall thickness.the presence rates of plentiful arterial flow in the gallbladder wall,adhesion of gallbladder and stone incarceration In operation difficult group were significantly different from those in operation easy group [(52.6±14.6)mm~3 vs(32.6±10.4)mm~3,(9.7±4.1)mm vs(3.8±0.9)mm,89.5%(17/19)vs 17.9%(12/67),78.9%(15/19)vs 11.9%(8/67),10.5%(2,19)vs 0(0/67)](P<0.05 or<0.01).The accurate rate was 94.2%(81/86)in predicting.Conclusion Preoperative color Doppler flow imaging is helpful in predicting difficulties of LC.

Sixty patients underwent surgery for malignant thoracic tumor were evenly randomized into control group (group A) and treatment group (group B).0.3 ml low-molecular-weight heparin was injected per 12 h for 3 d in group B from 24 h after surgery.Bilateral venous sonography of lower extremities were performed before and d1,d3 after operation.Blood coagulation marks PLT,PT,APTT,Fibrinogen (FIB)and D-dimer were determined at the same time.Diagnosis of calf vein thrombosis after surgery was confirmed by color Doppler sonography in 7 patients:1 in group B (3％) and 6 in group A (20％) (P ＜ 0.05 ).Thrombosis at calf intermuscular vein was found in 6 patients and thrombosis at posterior tibial vein in 1 patient.FIB and D-dimer had no significant difference on the dl ( P ＞ 0.05 ) between two groups,but significantly lower on the d3 after surgery in group B than that in group A ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Low-molecularweight heparin reduced blood hypercoagulation state and thrombosis.Color Doppler sonography can be a valuable method for detecting asymptomatic deep vein thrombosis in the early stage after surgery and monitoring the efficacy of thrombosis prevention.

Tet (ten-eleven translocation) proteins belong to α-ketoglutaric acid (α-KG or 2-OG) and Fe2+ dependent dioxygenases. Tets are found to be involved in the unique mammalian DNA active demethylation process by specifically oxidizing the methyl group of 5-methylcytosine (5mC) in mammalian genome, and play critical roles in gene regulation in early embryonic development and stem cell differentiation via regulating the dynamic balance distribution of 5mC. Abnormal expression and function of Tets are closely associated with various hematological malignances, including myelodysplastic syndrome, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, and acute lymphoblastic leukemia, as well as solid tumors. Hence, Tets and Tets-mediated DNA demethylation are novel anti-tumor drug targets. Investigation of biological function and catalytic mechanism of Tets is helpful for further understanding mechanisms of tumor incidence and development relevant to DNA demethylation pathway and can provide reference for developing new anti-tumor targeted drugs.

Objective To research the expression,methylated regulation and clinical significances of miR-34b in chidren with acute leukemia(AL).Methods The methylation status of miR-34b promoter CpG islands were detected with methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (MSP) in patients with AL.Then the expression of miR-34b was compared,which was detected by Taqman real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR),between the AL patients and normal group,in order to analyze their relationship with the clinical indicators.Resuits In 8 leukemia cell lines (U937,HL-60,MV4-11,M2R,K562,Raji,CCRF,DAMI) showed methylation,the positive rate of the methyl was 100％.Thirty-one acute lymphocytic leukemia(ALL) pediatric patients were newly diagnosed,and 24 cases showed methylation,the methylation positive rate 77.42％ (24/31).Nineteen acute myeloid leukemia(AML) patients were newly diagnosed,and 8 cases showed methylation,the methylation positive rate was 42.11％ (8/19 cases).There was no methylation in the 23 cases of normal children.The relative expression levels of miR-34b in the normal group,the group of leukemia cell lines,the group of ALL pediatric patients with newly diagnosed,the AML group and the group with mixed lineage leukemia gene rearrangement MLL+ were 5.22 ± 1.15,0.03 ± 0.03,1.65 ± 0.69,0.18 ± 0.06,0.64 ± 0.34,respectively.The findings indicated that there were significant differences in the relative expression levels of miR-34b between the normal group and the group of leukemia cell lines,the ALL group,the AML group,and the MLL+ group.The relative expression and methylated level of miR-34b had no statistically difference in gender,age at diagnosis,WBC count,chromosome,fusion gene,MLL gene rearrangement,and the minimal residual disease(LDH) levels in newly diagnosed AML patients(all P ＞ 0.05).And the relative expression and methylated level of miR-34b had no statistically difference in gender,age at diagnosis,WBC count,immunophenotype,chromosome,fusion gene,MLL gene rearrangement,TEL/AML1 gene,risk stratification,the minimal residual disease (MRD) in thirty-three days and the LDH levels in newly diagnosed ALL patients(all P ＞ 0.05).But as for the response to prednisone experiment,there was a significant difference between the sensitive group and the non sensitive group(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The expression level of miR-34b in AL was significantly lower and it was regulated by methylation mechanism,which implies that miR-34b may play a role of a tumor suppressor gene in the pathogenesis of leukemia.MiR-34b may affect the early treatment response of ALL patients,and it may be an indicator of risk stratification and poor prognosis in pediatric ALL.

OBJECTIVETo study the expression level and CpG island methylation status of miR-34b in leukemia cell lines and to research the effect of DNA methylation on the proliferation of leukemia cells regulated by miR-34b.

METHODTaqman real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was carried out to detect the relative expression of miR-34b in control group (bone marrow cells of 20 children without blood disease) and 8 leukemia cell lines (U937, HL-60, MV4-11, M2R, K562, Raji, CCRF, DAMI). Methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (MSP) was carried out to detect the methylation differences of miR-34b in control group (Bone marrow cells of 23 children without blood disease), 8 leukemia cell lines. HL-60 and K562 were treated with methyltransferase inhibitor (5-aza-2-dC) for further detection of its methylation status and expression of miR-34b. Hsa-miR-34b mimics was transfected into K562 cell by liposome, the transfection efficiency was detected by flow cytometry. The cell proliferation of hsa-miR-34b transfected group in each stage was measured with CCK-8 assay, and then compared with non-transfected group and negative control group.

RESULTThe relative expression level of miR-34b in the group of children without blood disease and the group of leukemia cell lines were 5.22 ± 1.15, 0.03 ± 0.03. The results showed that, the group of leukemia cell lines was significantly different from the control group (t = 4.538, P < 0.01) . Eight leukemia cell lines showed methylation, the positive rate of the methyl was 100%. There was no methylation in the 23 cases of control group. After leukemia cell lines HL-60 and K562 were treated with 5-aza-2-dC, the methylated bands became obviously weakened, and the relative expression levels of miR-34b substantially increased 49.5 times and 18.8 times respectively. After hsa-miR-34b mimics was transfected into K562 cell by liposome, its transfection efficiency detected by flow cytometry was 61% and the cell proliferation was measured with CCK-8 assay from which it was found that the cell proliferation was significantly suppressed compared with the control group at 48 h (t = 9.303, P < 0.01), 72 h (t = 65.617, P < 0.01), 96 h (t = 36.878, P < 0.01) and 120 h (t = 18.748, P < 0.01) in hsa-miR-34b transfected group, with the inhibition rate of 12.2% (48 h), 45.7% (72 h), 32.5% (96 h) and 22.9% (120 h).

CONCLUSIONThe hypermethylation of promoter leads to decrease in the expression levels of miR-34b in leukemia cell lines, which attenuate mechanism of proliferative inhibition may be one of the reasons of occurrence or development of childhood leukemia.
