Bcl-2 family plays an important role in cell apoptosis pathway. The ratio of pro-apoptosis members and anti-apoptosis members closely correlates with tumorigenesis, tumor radiosensitivity and progno-sis. Recent years ,according to the correlation of Bcl-2 family and tumor radiosensitivity, many researchers want to find new therapeutic strategies that target Bcl-2 in clinical radiotherapy.

110 cases of infantile diarrhoea were admitted to this institute in a period from Aug. 30 to Dec. 22 of 1982.The patients were randomly divided into two groups, the TDP group and the control group. The general condition and the age distribution of the patients of both groups were similar. The patients of the TDP group received only TDP radiation instead of antibiotics and those of the control group received antibiotics therapy but no TDP. Other treatments such as fluid replacement, dietary regulation, etc, were the same in two groups. Stool samples were sent for routine examination and bacterial culture and blood samples for the determinations of the electrolyte levels, CO2CP, and immunity function for all the patients right after admission as well as just before discharge. The cure rate and course of the disease were similar in two groups. However the pathogenic organisms could still be revealed in the stool of the patients of the TDP group after recovery. But the rate of lymphocyte transformation was significantly higher in the patients of TDP group.It is concluded that TDP radiation is a simple, safe and effective treatment for infantile diarrhoea but its therapeutic mechanism remains obscure.

Objective:To analyze the relationship between virulent phenotypes and the expression of antigens.Methods:The authors observed virulent phenotypes of different Shigella and its mutant by Congo red test(Pcr),contacting hemolysis test (CHT),invading HeLa cells test(Inv) and keratoconjunctivits test(Ser) and analyzed genetic background of the virulence of Shigella.Took the convalescent sera of monkeys infected with Shigella flexneri 2a to analyze the virulence associated antigens of different Shigella and enteroinvasive E.coli2 by BA immunoblot methods.Results:All virulent Shigella strains have a 120～140 MegaDalton(MD) plasmid and are Pcr(+),CHT(+),Inv(+),Ser(+).While all virulent Shigella strains are negative.All virulent strains contain four invasive plasmid antigens(IpaA?B?C?D),while nor do virulent strains.The virulence of Shigella is related not only with Ipas,but also with LPS antigen.Conclusion:The virulence of Shigella is associate with biology phenotypes of Shigella.Only with common expression of the two antigens(Ipas and LPS),the bacteria express the virulence.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of plasma gelsolin in the prognosis of patients with ST-sgement elevation myocardial infarction ( STEMI ) and undergone primary percutaneous coronary intervention ( PCI ) .Methods The study included 206 patients with STEMI and undergone primary PCI, 148 patients with stable angina pectoris and received elective PCI and 80 healthy volunteer as the health population (NP) control.Blood samples were taken at admission on day 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 to determine the plasma gelsolin level .Patients′baseline clinical characteristics , blood biochemistry tests results , details of operation and their cardiovascular risk factors were recorded .Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) within one year were recorded.Results (1) Compared to the stable angina group and the NP group, the level of plasma gelsolin of STEMI patients were obviously decreased at various time points ( all P<0.05 ) .There were no statistical differences between the stable angina group and the NP group .( 2 ) Patients with STEMI were catagorized into MACE group (n=78) and non-MACE group (n=128) according their follow up record in 1 year.The level of plasma gelsolin in patients with MACE were lower than the non-MACE group ( P <0.05 ) with the minimum value detected on day 7.Among patients complicated with MACE (n=78), they were further devided into the deceased group (n=18) and the survival group (n=60).Plasma gelsolin levels were lower in the deceased group with satistical differences found on day 5, 7 and 9.(3) Single factor Logistic regression analysis showed that the level of plasma gelsolin on day 7 was independent risk factor of MACE within one year ( P =0.014 ) .( 4 ) Setting the cutoff value of plasma gelsolin on day 7 as 21.7 mg/L,the sensitivity and speciticity for the MACE in STEMI patients treated with primary PCI within one year were 82.1%and 81.4%respectively , with the area under the receiver operator characteristic curve ( ROC ) was 0.854 ( 95% confidence interval 0.732 -0.961 , P <0.01 ) . Conclusions Plasma gelsolin levels are correlated with the severity of STEMI lesions and plasma gelsolin can be used as predicting factor of prognosis .

Objective To investigate the usefulness of different-b-value diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) in patients with early cerebral infarction and obtain the optimal b value of early cerebral infarction.Methods DWI at b-value of 1,000,2,000,and 3,000 s/mm2 was performed for 40 patients within 72 h after the onset of stroke using a GE Signa HDx 3.0T MRI scanner.Post-processing was done by the DWI specific software Function Tool to gain signal intensity and mean apparent diffusion coefficient in the lesions center and the contralateral normal brain tissue,respectively.The sensitivity of conventional MRI and different-b-value DWI was calculated in the diagnosis of early cerebral infarction.Results In 40 patients with early cerebral infarction,the sensitivity of b-values of 1,000,2,000,and 3,000 s/mm2 (DWIb=1 000,DWIb=2 000,DWIb=3 000) and conventional MRI in the diagnosis of early cerebral infarction were 100％,97.5％,97.5％,72.5％,respectively.With b value increased,signal intensity and ADC value declined.Under the condition of different b values,signal intensity and ADC value were statistically significant in region of interest (P＜0.05).Conclusion DWI is superior to conventional MRI scan in monitoring early cerebral infarction.With the increase of b value,the sensitivity is the higher to hyperacute cerebral infarction,the signal contrast is obvious,while signal to noise ratio of the image reduces.It is suggested that brain tissue contrast and the sensitivity to the new cerebral infarction is more predictable on b value =1,000 DWI than on the other DWIs.

Objective To analysis the influence factors of standardization in the hierarchical chain management of type 2 diabetes and to enhance the hierarchical chain management of type 2 diabetes.Methods ( 1 ) Six hundred and ninty patients with type 2 diabetes completed 1 years management were divided into well-controlled glycosylated hemoglobin ( HbAlc ) group (＜7.0％ ) and bad-controlled glycosylated hemoglobin (HbAlc) group ( ≥ 7.0％ ).The conditions of diet,physical activity,medication,self-blood sugar monitoring and participation in health seminars were investigated and analyzed.(2) The patients were divided into standardized management group and not standardized management group.Their age,sex,educational background,occupation,monthly income per person,medical security,the course,cognition for glycuresis,two-way transfer,and chronic complications were investigated and statistically analyzed.Results ( 1 ) The proportions of physical activity (70.1％ vs 54.2％,x2=6.163,P=0.018),self-blood sugar monitoring(60.4％ vs 43.8％,x2=6.268,P=0.016) and participation in health seminars (56.0％ vs 41.7％,x2=4.577,P=0.045) in the well-controlled HbAlc group were significantly higher than those in the bad-controlled HbAlc group.(2) Their age [(61.08 ±10.04) years old vs ( 57.75 ± 9.89 ) years old,t=2.539,P=0.012],educational background ( ratio of low educational attainment:8.3 ％ vs 17.2％,x2=6.426,P=0.041 ),medical security (own expense ratios:4.6％ vs 11.5％,x2=3.543,P=0.048 ),awareness of diabetes ( ratio of poor awareness of diabetes:19.4％ vs 41.0％,x2=17.518,P=0.000 ),two-way transfer ( ratio of not transfer treatment:4.6％ vs 14.8％,x2=7.662,P=0.022) and chronic complications ( ratio of chronic complication:41.7 ％ vs 26.2％,x2=6.130,P=0.017) were significantly different between the standardized management group and not standardized management group.(3) Logistic regression analyses indicated that the age ( OR=0.954,P=0.006),monthly income per person ( OR=4.101,P=0.018 ),medical security ( OR=7.617,P=0.003 ),cognition for glycuresis ( OR=0.030,P=0.000),two-way transfer ( OR=9.079,P=0.000) and chronic complications ( OR=0.456,P=0.031 ) were the risk factors of standardized management.Conclusion We should focus on the impact factors affecting the standardized management of patients including age,monthly income per person,medical security,awareness of diabetes,ratio of not transfer treatment,positive strategies for chronic complications,improve the hierarchical chain management of type 2 diabetes,and then make the diabetic patients to early participate in standardization management of diabetes mellitus and delay the appearance of complications.

Objective To observe effects of different extracts of Jianpi Huogu Formula (JPHGF) on proliferation and differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSCs). Methods Whole bone marrow adherent was used to screen, culture, and isolate BMSCs. Extracts from different parts (water, chloroform, ethyl acetate and n-butanol parts) of JPHGF were administrated for a certain time. MTS was used to detent cell proliferation;ALP staining was used to detect ALP activity;ARS staining was used to detect the formation of calcium nodules;oil red O staining was used to detect fat cell formation. Results Extracts from different parts of JPHGF could promote cell proliferation of BMSCs in different levels, followed by its strength in water, chloroform, ethyl acetate, and n-butanol parts;ALP staining results showed that the intensity of ALP expression of the order is water, acetic acid ethyl, chloroform and n-butanol parts;in promoting the formation of calcium nodules, ARS staining results showed that its intensity were water, chloroform, ethyl acetate, and n-butanol parts;oil red O staining results showed that inhibition intensity of fat cells interaction strength was formed from ethyl acetate, water, chloroform to n-butanol parts. Conclusion Extracts from different parts of JPHGF have different effects on BMSCs proliferation and differentiation. Water extraction has the strongest osteogenic differentiation and proliferation, and ethyl acetate has the best effect on the inhibition of cell formation.

Objective To analyze the role of cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-1 (caspase-1) in a mouse model of D-galactosamine (D-GalN) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced acute liver failure (ALF) and to study the possible mechanism. Methods C57BL/ 6 mice were randomly divided into four groups including control group, Z-WEHD-FMK (caspase-1 inhibitor) treatment group, ALF model group and Z-WEHD-FMK-treated ALF group. The mouse model of ALF was established by intraperitoneally injec-ting the mice with D-GalN (450 mg/ kg) and LPS (10 μg/ kg). The damages in liver tissues were evaluated based on the histopathological examination and the levels of alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate trans-aminase (AST) in serum samples. Western blot assay was performed to analyze the expression of caspase-1 and the phosphorylation of glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK-3β). The qRT-PCR was used to measure the expression of inflammatory cytokines at transcriptional level. Results The expression of caspase-1 at both mRNA and protein levels were gradually increased during the development of ALF. Compared with the mice with ALF, those in the Z-WEHD-FMK-treated ALF group showed less severe liver damages on histopatholog-ical examination and decreased levels of ALT and AST in serum samples [ALT: (479. 2±39. 5) U/ L vs (998. 5±60. 4 ) U/ L, P<0. 05; AST: ( 478. 5±28. 6) U/ L vs ( 1 180. 7±91. 4) U/ L, P<0. 05]. The expression of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-18 and IL-33 at transcriptional level were significantly suppressed in mice with ALF upon the Z-WEHD-FMK intervention. Results of the Western blot assay indicated that Z-WEHD-FMK suppressed the activities of GSK-3β by enhancing its phosphorylation. Conclusion This study demon-strated that caspase-1 could promote the activation of GSK-3β resulting in the development of inflammation responses and liver damages during the development of ALF in mice.

Objective To investigate the effects of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α( PPARα) on macrophage-mediated inflammatory responses with the interference of lipopolysaccharide and the possible mechanism.Methods The bone marrow stem cells were isolated from the femora of mice.The granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor ( GM-CSF) was used to stimulate the in vitro differentiation from bone marrow stem cells into primary macrophages.An in vitro model with cultured cells expressing in-flammatory cytokines was established by treating the primary macrophages with lipopolysaccharide ( LPS) .A specific chemical agonist, Wy-14643, was used to activate PPARα. Autophagy inhibitors including 3-methyladenine (3-MA) and small interfering RNA against Atg7 ( Atg7 siRNA) were used to inhibit the autophagy.Western blot assay was performed to detect the expression of autophagy-related proteins ( Atg5, Atg7, Beclin-1 and LC3).The transcriptional levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, Atg5, Atg7 and Beclin-1 were analyzed by qRT-PCR.Results Compared with the macrophages treated with LPS alone, those pretreated with various concentrations of Wy-14643 (10 μmol/L, 25 μmol/L and 50 μmol/L) showed inhibited ex-pression of proinflammatory cytokines ( TNF-α,IL-1βand IL-6) and enhanced expression of autophagy-relat-ed proteins (Atg5, Atg7 and Beclin-1) at mRNA level in a dose-dependent manner.The expression of auto-phagy-related proteins (Atg5, Atg7, Beclin-1 and LC3) by macrophages was promoted with the pretreatment of Wy-14643 as indicated by Western blot assay.The transcriptional levels of TNF-α, IL-1βand IL-6 were increased in Wy-14643 pretreated-macrophages after stimulation with 3-MA or Atg7 siRNA .Conclusion PPARαsuppressed the macrophage-mediated inflammatory responses by promoting autophagy, suggesting that the PPARα-autophagy pathway might be one of the signaling pathways regulating LPS induced-inflamma-tory responses.

Objective To study the preoperative application value of the three-dimensional angiography in surgical strategy for the elderly patients with meningioma. Methods Forty-two elderly patients aged 60 years and over with meningioma were examined preoperatively with multi-slice spiral CT angiography(MSCTA) and (or) 3 dimensional contrast-enhancement MR angiography(3D CE-MRA)as simulation group.In three-dimensional post-processing workstation,the oppression and invasion degree of the intracranial important blood vessels,nervous running zone and sinus,as well as surgical risks were evaluated. 28 elderly patients without the above examination were as control group. The operation time, blood transfusions and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. Results All 42 cases of simulation group completed reasonable surgical plan and approach.The incidence of postoperative complications were lower in simulation group than in control group (35.7％ vs.50.0％,P＞0.05),intra-operative blood transfusion were significantly decreased in simulation group as compared with control group [(5301.0± 150.6) ml vs.( 621.4±226.7)ml,t=2.01,P=0.049],operation time after three-dimensional simulation were reduced as compared with control group [(257.1 ±72.6) min vs.(307.5±88.2)min,t=2.61,P=0.011].Conclusions Application of three-dimensional angiography in elderly patients with meningioma to evaluate the operative risk may help make reasonable surgical strategy,thus reducing the surgical trauma and complications.
