Aim To investigate the effects of dual COX-2/5-LOX inhibitor darbufelone on the inhibition of gastric adenocarcinoma in vitro.Methods MTT assay was used to detect the inhibition of gastric adenocarcinoma cell line SGC-7901 by darbufelone in different concentrations and at different times.TUNEL staining was used to evaluate the apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells.The changes of 5-LOX and COX-2 mRNA expression were studied by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction.5-LOX and COX-2 protein expressions were analyzed by immunocytochemistry in SGC-7901 cells.Results darbufelone could decrease the proliferation significantly in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner in SGC-7901 cells.After treating SGC-7901 with darbufelone at concentration of 1.5?10-5,1.0?10-5,5?10-6 mol?L-1 for 72 hs,apoptosis index(%) of SGC-7901 was(30.3?2.1)%,(23.0?2.0)%,(15.0?1.5)%,respectively,which was significantly higher than(0.6?0.1)% that in control group(P

Objective To investigate the dynamic changes of mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW),and to explore the role of MPV and PDW in the prognosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Methods This retrospective cohort study included 312 patients with AMI during 2012 to 2014 in The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University.Patients were divided into ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) group,non ST-elevation myocardial infarction group and low PDW group,high PDW group.Their clinical data and outcomes were analyzed.MPV and PDW were measured successively from admission to day-7 after AMI.The relationship between PDW,MPV and GRACE risk score was further investigated.Results In the STEMI group,the patients were younger (P =0.005),and with higher rates of hyperlipidemia and smoking (P ＜ 0.01).Patients in STEMI group had higher risk of death during hospitalization,compared to NSTEMI (P =0.014).In the high PDW group,the rates of congestion heart failure,cardiogenic shock and Killip ⅣV were higher (P ＜ 0.01;P =0.026;P ＜ 0.01).PDW was significantly associated with mortality of in-hospital,one-year mortality and the risk of re-infarction in one year (r =0.69,P ＜ 0.01;r =0.68,P ＜0.01;r =0.70,P ＜ 0.01).MPV was associated with one-year mortality (r =0.30,P =0.02).Conclusions PDW related to the severity of AMI could predict the risk of in-hospital mortality,one-year mortality and re-infarction.It was helpful to screen out the high-risk patients,so as to make more suitable treatment to improve the prognosis of patients.

BACKGROUND:It is confirmed that astrocytes can differentiate into neurons by Neurogenin2 gene regulation, suggesting that Schwann cells may also differentiate into neurons by gene regulation.
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the feasibility of Schwann cells differentiating into neurons by Neurogenin2 gene regulation.
METHODS:Rats Schwann cells were isolated, purified and identified. Then the Schwann cells were transfected with Neurogenin2 via green fluorescent protein gene-plentivirus. To induce neuronal differentiation, the Schwann cells were cultured in serum-free Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium containing epidermal growth factor, basic fibroblast growth factor and brain-derived neurotrophic factor for 2 weeks. The morphology of induced cells was observed by microscope, and myelin basic protein and neuron-specific enolase were detected by immunocytochemistry.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After transfection with Neurogenin2 via green fluorescent protein gene-plentivirus and induced differentiation, immunofluorescence assay demonstrated that 12.56%of the induced cellexpressed neuron-specific enolase, but the control group did not express neuron-specific enolase. Neurogenin2 gene-transfected Schwann cells can express neuron-specific enolase, suggesting Neurogenin2 gene may regulate transdifferentiation of Schwann cells into neurons.

Objective This study was designed to determine the influence of acute ethanol intoxication (AEI) on brain edema and aquaporin-4(AQP-4) levels after traumatic brain injury(TBI) in rots. The underlying mechanism was also investigated. Method Severe traumatic brain injury models were made using the Feeny method; acute ethanol intoxication models were established by gavagy. One hundred and ninety-two male SD rats were randomly divided(random number) into four groups, namely the sham operation group(A ), the acute ethanol intoxication group( B ), the traumatic brain injury group(C) and the combination of acute ethanol intoxication with traumatic brain injury group(D). Each group was further divided into four sub-groups according to the time interval between injury and death of the rats. After brain tissue was fixed by affusing paraformaldehyde, the expression of AQP-4 was detected by immunohistochemistry. Water content was detected by dry-wet analysis, and AQP-4 mRNA and protein were detected by RT-PCR and western blotting respectively after the brain tissue was got by rapid decapitation. Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA. Results The water content of brain tissue and expression level of AQP-4 were not significantly different between groups A and B( P > 0.05); however both were significantly increased in groups C and D relative to group A( P < 0.05). The water content of brain tissue in group D increased by mere than that in group C( P < 0.05), while the expression level of AQP-4 in group D was lower than that in group C(P<0.05). Conclusions Acute ethanol intoxication inhibited the expression of AQP-4,which induced a more severe cerebral edema after traumatic brain injury.

Objective To dynamically observe the effect of mild hypothermia on concentration of plasma S-100B protein in patients with acute severe brain injuries so as to further explore its role in treat-ment of acute severe brain injury. Methods A total of 120 patients with acute severe brain injuries were randomly divided into mild hypothermia group and general group. The patients in mild hypothermia group were treated with mild hypothermia besides conventional therapy, with maintenance of rectal tem-perature at 33℃-35℃ for 3-5 days. Serial concentration of S-IOOB protein in serum was measured in all patients from 6 hours to 6 days after hospitalization. GOS evaluation was done three months after treat-ment. Results The concentration of S-100B protein in serum of mild hypothermia group and general group was significantly higher than of normal group (P <0.05), with significant lower level in mild hypo-thermia group than general group(P <0.05). Mild hypothermia could improve prognosis of patients with acute severe brain injury. Conclusions Early use of mild hypothermia can decrease concentration of S-100B protein in serum, protect neurofunction and improve prognosis, as may be related to its function in alleviating damnification brain cell inflammation reaction mediated by S-100B protein.

Objective To explore the difference involved in the activation of inflammation pathway and the plasma level of inflammatory factors in the subjects with different sorts of insulin sensitivity. Methods The study was carried out in 38 women, consisting of obesity (n = 22 ) and control (n = 16 ) groups according to body mass index. The insulin sensitivity was assessed by homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMAIR). Plasma concentrations of interleukin-6 (II-6) and IL-1β were determined by enzyme immunoassay. Western blot analysis was used to examine total protein expression and phosphorylation levels of IκB kinase (IKK) ,inhibitor of nuclear factor-κB ( IκB ) in peripheral blood leukcocytes. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA)was used to detect the binding activity of NFκB. Results The levels of fasting plasma insulin[62.2 ( 20.0-127. 0) pmol/L vs 19. 15 ( 14. 2-47. 8 ) pmol/L, P<0. 01], HOMA-IR[2. 32 ( 0. 76-5.49 ) vs 0.70(0.53-1.7),P<0.0l], HbA1 C[(5.42±0. 45 ) % vs ( 5.08 ±0. 38) %, P<0. 05], triglyceride[( 1.75 ±0. 68 vs 1.22 ±0. 58 )mmol/L, P<0. 05], plasma IL-6[3. 15 (0. 03-22. 2) pg/ml vs 1.26 (0. 74-6.06 ) pg/ml, P<0. 01], and IL-1 β[6. 53 ( 0. 84-36 ) pg/ml vs 3. 16( 1.48-8. 86 ) pg/ml, P<0. 01]in obesity group were significantly higher than those in control group. Compared with control group, the levels of IKKo, IKKβ expression and IκBα serine phosphorylation in obesity group were markedly increased, while the expression of IκBα was significantly reduced. Accompanied with the degradation of IκBα protein, the binding activity of NFκB in obesity group was significantly increased. Conclusions The plasma levels of IL-6 and IL-1β were significantly raised in obesity group. The activation of IKK-IκB-NFκB pathway is closely associated with the genesis and development of insulin resistance in obese subjects.

Objective To investigate the value of subdural intracranial pressure (ICP) monito-ring in post-operative patients with severe brain injury. Methods A total of 100 patients with severe brain injury treated with craniotomy were randomly divided into ICP monitoring group (n=50) and rou-tine treatment group (n = 50). In ICP monitoring group, the treatment methods were adjusted according to the changes of ICP, whereas the patients in routine treatment group underwent general treatment ac-cording to standard neurosurgical protocol. Results Patients in ICP monitoring group received mannitol for eight days, with the average dosage of 950 g. Marmitol was administered to patients in routine treat-ment group for 12 days, with average dosage of 1 450 g. There was statistical difference in aspects of time duration and mannitol dosage between two groups (P <0.01). Of all patients in ICP monitoring group, four were found with electrolyte disturbance (8%), seven with acute renal failure (14%), four with stress ulcer (8%) and eight with pulmonary infection (16%). The corresponding numbers of patients in routine treatment group were nine (18%), 14 (28%), five (10%) and nine (18%), respectively. The occurrence of electrolyte disturbance and acute renal failure between two groups showed significant statistical difference (P < 0.05), while the occurrence of stress ulcer and pulmonary infection were be-yond of statistical difference between two groups (P > 0.05). The post-operative initial ICP level was positively correlated with mortality rate (P <0.01). All patients were followed up for three months post-operatively. In ICP monitoring group, 27 patients (26%) obtained good prognosis without any disability (54%), 13 were under mild disability, two (4%) under severe disability, three (6%) under vegeta-tive state and five (10%) died . In the routine treatment group, 17 patients (34%) were with good prognosis without any disability , six (12%) with mild disability , six (12%) with severe disability, eight (16%) under vegetative state and 13 (26%) died. The ICP monitoring group had better prognosis than the routine treatment group(P < 0.05). Conclusion Continuous ICP monitoring postoperatively in severe brain injury patients is valuable in reducing mortality, complication and improving the prognosis.

Objective To understand the quality of sleeping in medical students, and provide a reference basis for designing sleep health management program for college students. Methods The survey was conducted at a medical college in Shanxi province with stratified random sampling and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) scale. Totally 210 individuals were enrolled, 199 completed the questionnaire, with a response rate of 93.5%. SPSS 21.0 statistical software was used for data analysis. Descriptive statistical analysis was carried out for socio-demographic data. Independent t-test, one-way analysis of variance and non-parametric test were used to compare the scores of PSQI between participants. Multiple stepwise linear regression was used to determine influencing factors of sleep quality. Results The average score of PSQI for the 199 medical students interviewed was (6.74±2.42), the incidence of sleep disorder was 50.25%, the overall sleep quality was not high. Learning pressure of medical student had statistically significant in PSQI (Completely unmatched, 5.14 ± 2.32, Mostly unmatched, 5.93 ± 2.73, Mostly matched, 6.70 ± 2.42, Absolutely matched, 7.39 ± 2.10, F=3.366, P=0.020), employment pressure of medical students in PSQI (Completely unmatched, 6.50 ± 0.71, Mostly unmatched, 6.80 ± 3.24, Mostly matched, 5.98 ± 2.14, Absolutely matched, 7.14 ± 2.35, F=3.134, P=0.027). Grade (β=-0.172, P<0.05) and learning pressure (β=0.210, P<0.01) were the main influence factors for students. Conclusion Sleep quality of medical students was not high, upper grade was worse than low grade, the incidence of sleep disorder had increasing trend as learning pressure and degree of employment pressure worsen.
