Objective To determine the effects of prostaglandin E_2 alone and the combination with omeprazole for poisoning related acute mucosal lesion. Methods Forty-two healthy SD rats were randomly divided into 7 groups: control group (control), methamidophos poisoning model group (intox), 10 mg/kg omeprazole group (ome1), 50 mg/kg omeprazole group (ome2), 10 μg/kg prostaglandin E_2 group (PG1), 50 μg/kg prostaglandin E_2 group (PG2), 10 μg/kg prostaglandin E_2 combined with 10 mg/ kg omeprazole group (union). The gastric ulcer index was counted and the content of serum cholinesterase, endothelin, and tumor necrosis factor were measured, and dependability was analyzed. Results There was no obvious difference between the prostaglandin group and the poisoning model group in gastric ulcer index, endothelin, and tumor necrosis factor. The omeprazole alone and the combination treatment could improve the acute gastric mucosa lesion induced by methamidophos poisoning. Conclusion Prostaglandin E_2 alone can not obviously improve the acute gastric mucosa lesion by methamidophos poisoning. The combination with omeprazole may be a promising treatment.

Purpose To explore the clinicopathologic characteristics, pathologic diagnosis and differential diagnosis of extraskeletal myxiod chondrosarcoma. Methods The clinical and pathological features were studied with HE and immunohistochemical staining in 5 cases of extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma, and the related literatures were also reviewed. Results Extraskeletal myxoid chondro-sarcoma was male predominance (4 males: 1 female), and the age ranged from 32 to 62 years with an average of 52 years. Four tumors occurred in thigh and another in chest. Histologically, the neophlasm were composed of round and oval cells. Immunohisto-chemically, the tumor cells were positive for vimentin in five cases, synaptophysin expressed in one case, S-100 showed focal positivity in two cases, but negative for CK, p63, EMA, CD34, SMA in all cases. Molecular genetics detection shows chromosome exchange be-tween number 9 and 22. Conclusion Extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma is a rare tumor which has no special characteristics in clinical and iconography, and its diagnosis mainly depends on the histopathologic features, immunohistochemistry and molecular genet-ics. Extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma grows slowly, but have a high tendency for local recurrence and metastases.

OBJECTIVETo explore the role and mechanism of oxidative inflammatory cascade in pancreatic fibrosis progression of chronic pancreatitis (CP) in mice induced by dibutyltin dichloride (DBTC) plus ethanol.
METHODSThirty-six KM mice were randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 18): control group and model group (DBTC combined with ethanol). The mice in model group were intravenously injected with DBTC (8 mg/kg) in tail vein and drink 10% ethanol. After modeling 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 8 weeks, the mice were anesthetized and sacrificed, the pathological changes and the degree of fibrosis in the pancreas were observed by HE and Masson staining, the F4/80 expression level were detected by immunohistochemistry, the content of superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde(MDA) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) were measured in the pancreatic homogenates.
RESULTSThe fibroblasts and macrophages (f4/80 positive staining) could be seen obviously in pancreas of model group at 2 weeks. At 4 weeks and 8 weeks, macrophages infiltration increased and pancreatic tissue was substituted by the proliferation of fibrosis significantly. At every time-point, in pancreatic homogenates SOD was decreased, MDA and MPO markedly increased. There was significant differences between two groups (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONDBTC injection joint ethanol drinking can successfully establish the model of chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic fibrosis in mice. Oxidative inflammatory cascade plays an important role in the progression of pancreatic fibrosis.
