AIM: To investigate the angiogenesis effect and protective mechanism of cordycepin on rhesus macaque choroid- retinal endothelial ( RF/ 6A) cell line cultured in high glucose condition.
METHODS: Cultured RF/ 6A cells were divided into normal control group, high glucose group and high glucose (HG) + different concentration cordycepin groups (HG+ 10μ g/ mL group, HG+ 50μ g/ mL group, HG+ 100μ g/mL group). The cell proliferation was assessed using cholecystokinin octapeptide dye after treated for 48h. The cell migration was investigated by a Transwell assay. The tube formation was measured on Matrigel. Furthermore, the impact of cordycepin on high glucose - induced activation of VEGF and VEGF receptor 2 (VEGFR-2) was tested by Western blot analysis.
RESULTS: Compared with normal control group, cell viability markedly increased in high glucose group ( P <0. 05). Cordycepin inhibited RF/ 6A cell proliferation in a dose- dependent fashion: 10. 2 ± 0. 9%, 23. 4 ± 1. 5% and 31. 1±1. 2% inhibition as the concentrations of cordycepin were 10, 50 and 100μ g/ mL, respectively. The difference had statistically significant (P<0. 05) compared with high glucose group. The number of cell migration were 55. 6±2. 70, 87. 4 ± 2. 40, 65. 4 ± 2. 7, 57. 8 ± 2. 38, 62. 4 ± 2. 77 in normal control group, high glucose group and HG+10μ g/mL group, HG + 50μ g/ mL group, HG + 100μ g/ mL group respectively. Migration of RF/ 6A conspicuously increased in high glucose group ( P < 0. 05) compared with normal control group; while showing a gradually reducing trend with the increase of cordycepin dose and a statistically significant difference compared with high glucose group (P<0. 05). The number of tube formation were 18. 7±2. 08, 25. 7 ± 1. 52, 19. 9 ± 1. 57, 16. 3 ± 2. 51, 5. 67 ± 1. 72 in the abovementioned group. Similarly showing a gradually reducing trend with the increase of cordycepin dose and a statistically significant difference with high glucose group (P< 0. 05). In addition, the number of tube formation of RF/ 6A in high glucose group significant increased compared with normal control group ( P < 0. 05 ). The expression of VEGF and VEGFR-2 dramaticlly increased in high glucose group vs normal control group, oppositely gradually decreased with the increase of cordycepin concentrations, and had a statistically significant difference vs high glucose group (P<0. 05).
CONCLUSION: Cordycepin can suppress the proliferation, migration and tubu formation of RF/ 6A in high glucose condition, might via inhibiting expression of VEGF and VEGFR-2.

Objective To discuss the advance and experience of postoperative management in multivisceral transplantation(MVT).Methods Five patients with abdominal multiple organs malig- nances were subjected to multivisceral transplantation.The excised specimens included the liver,pan- creas,duodenum,stomach,spleen,mesentery and all of the involved lymph nodes.The transplanted organs were liver,pancreas,duodenum and parts of intestine.Patients were monitored and sustained stably in breath,hemodynamics and homoeostasis.The coagulation was also monitored and kept in balance.The intensive immunosuppressive protocol,including steroid,tacrolimus,mycophenolate mofetil and Zenapax,was used to prevent the acute rejection.The endocrine and exocrine of pancreas were tested,color Doppler examination was done every day,and Somatostatin was used to prevent pancreatitis.Drugs to bacteria,fungus and virus infection were prophylactically used.Results All patients waked up with 4-6 h after operation and began recovering with 3-7 days.Dynamic examina- tions revealed that the functions of grafted liver,pancreas and duodenum were satisfactory.No com- plications of acute rejection,pancreatitis,bleeding and thrombosis occurred.Conclusion Many ques- tions in postoperative management related to multivisceral transplantation are devoted to study.Nice experience of management to organ transplantation,detailed monitoring and prophylactically medica- tions are safeguards to steady recovering and further prognosis.

Objective To investigate the effect of blocking VEGF expression on the radiation sensitivity of esophageal cancer cell line TE-1 in vivo. Methods 32 male Balb/c/nu nude mice were randomly divided into four groups, including control group, radiation group, anti-VEGF group, and anti-VEGF + radiation group. The anti-VEGFcDNA cells were subcutaneously injected into the paw pats of mice (2 × 106/100 μl). The subcutaneous tumors were irradiated with 18 Gy of 60Co y-rays when the diameter of tumors varied from 0. 8 to 1.0 cm. The volume of the tumors was measured before and after irradiation, respectively. The expression level of VEGF mRNA and protein were examined by RT-PCR and Western blotting, respectively. Apoptotic cells were detected by electron micrographs. Results Latent period of the tumor formation of anti-VEGF group was lengthened compared with other groups(t = 13. 898,P ＜0.01 ). The volumes of tumor in anti-VEGF group [ ( 1207. 50 ± 97.07 ) mm3 ] and anti-VEGF +radiation group [ ( 1057. 5 ± 91.50 ) mm3 ] were not statistically different post-irradiation ( t = 1. 124, P ＞0.05 ) , but smaller than those in control group [ ( 5442. 50 ± 185.08 ) mm3 ] and radiation group [ (2922. 50 ± 152. 773)mm3 ] with statistical differences( t = 9. 475-21. 238, P ＜ 0. 01 ). The expression level of endogenous VEGFmRNA and protein in anti-VEGF group and anti-VEGF + radiation group were statistically different from control group and radiation group (F = 387.394, 13.519, P ＜ 0.01 ).Conclusions Antisense VEGF could inhibit the proliferation of esophageal cancer cell in the nude mice.Effect of blocking VEGF expression before irradiation on esophageal cancer xenografts might be limited.

Objective:To study expressions of CD117 and CD34 in the patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia(APL,M3) and in M1-M2 subtype from FAB classification for acute leukemia(AL).The focus of the study would be laid on the clinical significance of CD117/CD34 co-expression in the patients of M3 subtype.Methods:Researched cases of acute nonlymphoblastic leukemia(ANLL) were divided into two groups:M1-M2 subtype and M3 subtype.Flow cytometery(FCM) was used to detect the rates of positive expression of CD117 and CD34 on bone marrow mononuclear cell(BMMNC) in 54 patients of M3 and 63 patients of M1-M2 subtype respectively.Meanwhile,we compared the differences between the rates of expression of CD117 and CD 34.And,the rates of CD117/CD34 co-expression in patients of M1-M2 subtype and M3 subtype were studied.Results:Our results revealed that the positive rates of CD117 expression in M1-M2 subtype and M3 subtype were 71.4%(45/63) and 66.7%(36/54) respectively(P=0.58).The positive rates of CD34 expression in M1-M2 subtype and M3 subtype were 66.7%(42/63) and 11.1%(6/54) respectively(P=0.000).The positive rates of CD117/CD34 co-expression in M1-M2 subtype and M3 subtype were 71.1%(45/63) and 7.4%(4/54) respectively(P=0.000).Conclusion:CD117 may be used as immunology marker for leukemia of myeloid origin.CD34 had lower expression in M3 subtype than in M1-M2 subtype.The positive rate of CD117/CD34 co-expression in M3 subtype was significantly lower than that in M1-M2 subtype,which can help for diagnosis of M3 subtype and help differentiate M3 subtype from M1-M2 subtype as well.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the occurrence of ADR induced by Shuxuening injection in Beijing area,and to pro-vide reference for rational drug use in clinic. METHODS:ADR induced by Shuxuening injection in Beijing area during 2003-2013 was classified statistically in respects of population,organs/systems involved in ADR,clinical manifestations,occurrence time, drug combination and prognosis. RESULTS:Of 1648 ADR cases,the incidence of ADR in the elderly patients was higher than young patients,and that of female patients (60.92％) was higher than that of male patients (39.14％). Multiple organs/systems were involved in Shuxuening injection-induced ADR,and top 3 were nervous system (422 cases,21.33％),skin and its appen-dants (411 cases,20.78％) and others (305 cases,15.42％). Clinical manifestations were skin rash,itching,dizziness and ner-vousness,palpitation,arrhythmia,etc. ADR mostly occurred within 5-30 min after medication. In ADR reports,there were a vari-ety of drugs combined with Shuxuening injection. Shuxuening injection combined with Alprostadil injection was most common(61 cases,accounting for 23.46％ of drug combination). Among 1648 ADR cases,there were 622 cured cases and 1039 cases im-proved,4 cases were not improved,3 cases had sequelae and 1 case died. CONCLUSIONS:Clinical application of Shuxuening in-jection should strictly follow the indications of drug package inserts;differentiation of symptoms and signs is based on specific dos-age,solvent,route of administration,etc. It is necessary to strengthen the prescription check,and strengthen the observation after medication especially for the elderly and other special groups so as to reduce and avoid ADR.

Objectives To investigate the prevalance of quinolone resistance in Laribacter hongkongensis and to evaluate the influence of agar dilution and disc diffusion methods on susceptibility testing for the bacterium. Methods Susceptibility to quinolones of L.hongkongensis was tested by agar dilution and disc diffusion methods. The results for both methods were compared. Results L.hongkongensis isolates exhibited different susceptibility rate for quinolones (levofloxacin>ciprofloxacin>norfloxacin>nalidixic acid). All of the fish isolates were susceptible to levofloxacin and more than 90%were susceptible to ciprofloxacin and Norfloxacin. However,by agar dilution, only 62.50%, 37.50%,48.21%, 19.64%of the frogs isolates were susceptible to levofloxacin, norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin, nalidixic acid, respectively. For fish isolates, comparision of susceptibilities between agar dilution and disc diffusion showed a high (> 95%) percentage agreement for levofloxacin and ciprofloxacin and the highest crepancies were observed with norfloxacin (100%) .But it showed a high discrepancy when comparing the two methods for frogs isolates. Conclusions The resistance rate of L. hongkongens to quinolones was high , especially for frog isolates. The results suggested the use of agar dilution on susceptibility testing for quinolones in L. hongkongensis.
