Langerhans cell histiocytosis is an uncommon disease, involvement of the thyroid by langerhans cell histiocytosis is rare. Two cases of Langerhans cell histiocytosis of the thyroid confirmed by pathology were reported in this paper. The main clinical feature was enlargement of the thyroids. One patient had hypothyroidism. Meanwhile, the lungs and pituitaries of the two patients were affected. Langerhans cell histiocytosis of the thyroid had no typical symptoms and specific laboratory examination, and might be clinically diagnosed as chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis, benign or malignant thyroid tumors. Thyroid fine needle aspiration cytology might be useful in confirming the diagnosis. The effective treatments include systemic chemotherapy, local radiation therapy and surgical excision. The chemotherapy is still the major technological approach. Most patients can relieve partially after receiving the systemic chemotherapy.

Aim To screen out the antigenic sequences from HCV core protein random peptide libraries displayed on phage and to explore a new way to screen the viral antigens. Methods The anti-HCV core antibody-positive serum was used to screen antigenic peptides from the HCV core protein random peptide libraries displayed on phage for 4 rounds. Detection of numbers of positive clones, positive rate of insertion of HCV random DNA and positive rate of hybridization with HCV core probes were used to evaluate the screening effects. The DNA sequences of 7 selected clones with positive hybridization were determined and analysed. Results Six out of 7 sequences are HCV core protein sequences, in which 5 were perfectly displayed,and one was possibly displayed. These sequences included several major HCV core antigenic epitopes. The remaining one was E.coli nrfa gene. Conclusion The phage display technique can be applied to study the viral antigenic peptides with the advantages of simple, accuracy and rapidity.

Objective To investigate the effects of ulinastatin-containing autologous cold blood cardioplegic solution on the cardiac function of infants after cardiopulmonary bypass surgery.Methods Sixty infants younger than 10 months old,who underwent ventricular septal defect repair under cardiopulmonary bypass,were randomized into autologous cold blood cardioplegia group (30 patients,Group A)and ulinastatincontaining cold blood cardioplegia group (30 patients,Group B).CI,SI and LCWI were monitored 1 and 6 hours after opening the aorta.The time and rate of cardiac resuscitation,as well as the dependence on the inotropic drugs,were intraoperatively monitored.Results The automatic resuscitation rate in two groups was not siynificantly ( P ＞ 0.05).The time for automatic resuscitation were (34.2 ± 4.7) s and (52.1 ± 6.5 ) s for Group B and Group A,respectively ( P ＜ 0.05 ).The rate of dependence on inotropic drug were 40.0％ (12/30) and 66.7％ (20/30)for Group B and Gro~p A,respectively (P ＜ 0.05).Mter the operation,the CI,SI and LCWI of group B were higher than that of group A ( P ＜0.05 ).Conclusion Ulinastatin-containing autologous cold blood cardioplegic solution is beneficial to the functional cardiac recovery of the infants after heart bypass surgery by protecting the immature myocardium.

Objective To study the protective effect of intraaortic protamine injection on lung in infants undergwent opening heart operation by cardiopulmonary bypass surgery. Methods Sixty infants (age ≤ 1 year,weight ≤ 10 kg)who accepted opening heart operation by cardiopulmonary bypass surgery were randomly assigned into 2 groups ( n = 30 in each group) reciving intra-aortic and intra-venous protamine injection respectively. P-peak, P-plate, CL, Oxygenation Index, the number of WBC and neutrophil segregated in lungs were compared between two groups before injecting protamine and 10 minutes, 1 hour, 3 hours after injecting protamine. The time of mechanical ventilation were compared as well. Results P-peak, P-plate, the number of WBC and neutrophil segregated in lungs of intra-aortic injection group significantly decreased than intra-venous injection group at 1 hour, 3 hours after injecting protamine (t =2.743, 3.512; 3.218, 3.469; 3.716, 5.243; 3.853,4. 783 respectively, Ps ＜ 0. 05 ), while the CL and Oxygenation Index increased significantly ( t = 3. 976,4. 267; 4. 557,4. 265 respectively, P ＜ 0. 05 ). The duration of mechanical ventilation follow operation in intraaortic injection group ( [8. 03 ± 5. 14] h ) was shorter compared with intra-venous injection group ( [10. 56 ±6.95]h) (t =2.599,P＜0.05). Conclusion By intra-aortic protamine injection the lung injury decreased significantly. It shows good protective effect on lung in infants underwent opening heart operation by cardiopulmonary bypass surgery.

Objective To explore the effects and mechanisms of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) receptor 1 antagonist (SC-19220) on proliferation,prostaglandin synthase and extracellular regulated protein kinases (ERK) signal pathway induced by transforming growth factor β1(TGF-β1) in glomerular mesangial cells.Methods Mouse glomerular mesangial cells (GMCs) were divided into 5 groups:control group,TGF-β1 (10 μg/L) group,TGF-β1 (10 μg/L) plus SC-19220 group (0.1,0.5,1.0 μmol/L).The proliferation of GMCs was measured by CCK-8.The PGE2 in supernatant was measured by ELISA.The expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF),laminin (LN),cyclooxygenase 2(COX2),membrane-bound prostaglandin E2 synthase 1 (mPGES1) protein and mRNA was examined by Westem blotting and real-time quantitative PCR,ERK1/2 or phospho-ERK1/2 was measured by Western blotting as well.Results TGF-β1 induced the proliferation of GMCs and increased the secretion of PGE2.Besides,TGF-β1 significantly up-regulated the expression of CTGF,LN,COX2 and mPGES1 mRNA and protein (P ＜ 0.05),and increased the expression of phospho-ERK1/2 protein (P ＜ 0.05).However,SC-19220 significantly attenuated the changes of above-mentioned parameters and their activities (P ＜ 0.05).All the effects of SC-19220 were in dose-dependent manner.Conclusions SC19220 may reduce TGF-β1-induced cell damage by suppressing the activity of ERK1/2,and feedback inhibition of COX2,mPGES1 and PGE2,thus decreases the expression of LN and CTGF.

Objective: To investigate the effect of cold self-blood cardioplegia with ulinastatin on immature myocardial cell apoptosis and protein expressions of Bcl-2, Bax in ventricular septal defect (VSD) infants.
Methods: A total of 60 infants received VSD repairing operation with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in our hospital were summarized. The patients were randomly divided into 2 groups:Test group, the infants received cold self-blood cardioplegia with ulinastatin when aortic cross-clamp was closed. Control group, the infants received cold self-blood cardioplegia when aortic cross-clamp was closed. n=30 in each group. The right atrium tissue was collected before CPB and 10 min after releasing aortic cross-clamp. The index of myocardial cell apoptosis was observed by TUNEL method, and the protein expressions of Bcl-2, Bax were examined by immunohistological method.
Results: Both groups showed the higher index of myocardial cell apoptosis at 10 min after releasing aortic cross-clamp than 5 min before CPB, and the apoptosis index in Test group was lower than that in Control group, all P<0.05. The protein expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax were obviously increased at 10 min after releasing aortic cross-clamp than 5 min before CPB in both groups. Compared with Control group, Test group presented the higher Bcl-2 protein expression and lower Bax protein expression, all P<0.05.
Conclusion: Cold self-blood cardioplegia with ulinastatin could protect immature myocardum from ischemia-reperfusion injury in VSD infants during CPB operation in clinical practice.

Background and purpose: Multidrug resistance (MDR) is the dominating obstacle to the chemotherapy. There is strong evidence that the phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) signaling pathway is involved in MDR phenotype, however, the mechanism of MDR occurrence is still unknown. This study tended to investigate the regulating effect of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and its downstream target genes in P-glycoprotein (P-gp) (ABCB1 gene encoding)-mediated MDR in human colon carcinoma HCT-116/L-OHP cells. Methods:Pretreatment with PI3K selective inhibitor LY294002 (20μmol/L) for 2 h, the sensitivity of L-OHP was evaluated by the CCK-8 (cell counting kit-8) assay in HCT-116/L-OHP cells, and the expressions of P-gp, LRP, MRP-2, Akt, p-Akt, IκB and p-IκB were evaluated by Western blot. The activity of ABCB1 promoter was evaluated by chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis (CHIP). Results: After inhibiting the activity of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, the IC50 value of L-OHP decreased from(157.48±16.73)μg/mL to (53.68±3.18)μg/mL in HCT-116/L-OHP cells, and the reversal index was 2.93 (P<0.01). The expressions of P-gp, p-Akt and p-IκB were down-regulation compared with the concrol group (P<0.01), but the expressions of LRP, MRP-2, Akt and IκB didn't change signiifcantly. CHIP result has conifrmed that NF-κB protein could bind to the region of ABCB1 gene promoter in HCT116/L-OHP cells. Conclusion:Blocking of PI3K/Akt/NF-kB signal pathway could increase the drug sensitivity to MDR cells, inhibit the phosphorylation of p-Akt and p-IκB, and reversing ABCB1/P-glycoprotein-mediated multidrug resistance in colon carcinoma cells.

Abstract] Objective To investigate the in vivo therapeutic effects of an extract of herb medi-cines, YiGanQingDuKeLi, in combination with adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) on the rebound of duck hepatitis B virus ( DHBV) multiplication after withdrawal of ADV treatment.Methods Peking ducks were infected with DHBV positive serum samples for 7 days and then screened by SYBR Green real-time PCR.The ducks positive for DHBV were randomly divided into five groups including the model control group, the ADV treat-ment group, the herb treatment group, the high-dose combination therapy group and the low-dose combina-tion therapy group.The ducks in the ADV treatment and the herb treatment groups were respectively treated with distilled water and YiGanQingDuKeLi (1.2 g/ml) for 14 days after the treatment of ADV (0.25 mg/ml) for 21 days.The ducks in the high-dose group were treated with YiGanQingDuKeLi (1.2 g/ml) for 14 days after the combined treatment with high-dose YiGanQingDuKeLi (1.2 g/ml) and ADV (0.25 mg/ml) for 21 days.The ducks in the low-dose group were treated with YiGanQingDuKeLi (0.6 g/ml) for 14 days after the combined treatment with YiGanQingDuKeLi (0.6 g/ml) and ADV (0.125 mg/ml) for 21 days.Blood samples were collected from each duck via leg vein after 0, 7, 14 and 21 days of drug adminis-tration and after 7 and 14 days of drug withdrawal.The levels of DHBV-DNA, alanine aminotransferase ( ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase ( AST) in blood serum samples were detected.Results Compared with the model group, the levels of DHBV-DNA, ALT and AST in ducks from the herb treatment group and combined treatment groups were decreased before the discontinuation of ADV treatment ( P<0.05 or P<0.01).Moreover, the titers of DHBV-DNA in ducks treated with high doses of drugs were much lower than those from ADV treatment group.The levels of DHBV-DNA, ALT and AST in ducks treated with herb medi-cine and high doses of drugs remained at relatively low levels after the cessation of ADV treatment, but re-bounded significantly in ducks with ADV treatment.The levels of DHBV-DNA and ALT rebounded slightly in ducks treated with low doses of drugs as compared with those of ADV treatment group ( P<0.01 or P<0.05).Conclusion The treatment of YiGanQingDuKeLi in combination with ADV could inhibit not only the in vivo replication of DHBV, but also the rebound of DHBV multiplication after ADV withdrawal.
