Objective To investigate the expression of thymosin ?4 in the foreskin,normal skin(except the foreskin),hypertrophic scar,and keloid,and its relationship to pathological scars.Methods In situ hybridization was applied to detect the expression of thymosin ?4 mRNA [With the probe of BM005698(EST) gene marked by digoxin] in four groups: foreskin,normal skin(except the foreskin),hypertrophic scar,and keloid.Both qualitative and semi-quantitative analysis were performed.Results Thymosin ?4 mRNA was expressed in all the four groups.The proportion of thymosin ?4 mRNA expression in the keloid was 2/10,which was 25% of that in the foreskin(8/10),and was 28.6% of that in the normal skin(7/10).The positive rate of thymosin ?4 mRNA expression in the dermis was higher than that in the epidermis;and was high in fibroblasts,intravascular endothelial cells,and macrophages.The mean OSD of the positive samples was 0.03?0.01 in the keloids,which was significantly lower than that in the normal skins(0.09?0.03) and hypertrophic scars(0.09?0.02)(P=0.000 for both).Compared with the normal skins,the expression increased by 231.5%(P

Objective To explore the mechanism underlying the superiority of the biphasic waveform to monophasic waveform in defibrillation.Method The Luo-Rudy model was adjusted so that it could be used to study defibrillation.Based on the adjusted model the effects of different defibrillation waveforms on cell action potential duration(APD) were studied.Result Biphasic electrical field pulse extended the APD longer than that with monophasic one.Moreover,biphasic waveforms with different strengths could prolong the APD almost equally,while monophasic pulses with different strengths showed different ability to prolong the APD and the spatial distribution of the APD became dispersed.It was also found that the strength of electrical fields pulse contributed much to the change of APD while the duration showed little effect.Conclusion The clinical superiority of biphasic pulses to monophasic pulses in defibrillation is resulted from its ability to prolong the time course of the APD and more importantly,it causes even spatial distribution of the APD.

AIM: To establish a arsenic trioxide (As 2O 3 )-resistant leukemic cell line to explore the mechanism of resistance to As 2O 3, and the relationship between the resistant cell line and the multidrug resistance was also investigated. METHODS: The arsenic trioxide (As 2O 3 )-resistant leukemic cell line was established by exposing the cells to the increasing concentration of As 2O 3. MTT assay was used to detect the cytotoxicity. Cell cycle was detected by PI assay. Flow Cytometry was used to detect the P-glycoprotein on the surface of the cells, the intracellular concentration of DNR, and the immuetype of the cells. RESULTS: The cell doublings time and the cell cycle of the arsenic trioxide (As 2O 3 )-resistant leukemic cell line, K562/AS2, is similar to that of K562. The relative resistant fold of K562/AS2 to As 2O 3, DNR, VP16 and Ara-C was 7.4, 2.9, 3.8 and 1.1, respectively. The relative resistant fold of multidrug resistant cell line, K562/ A02, to As 2O 3, DNR, VP16 and Ara-C was 0.8?94?2.5 and 0.9, respectively. The fluorescence of the P-glycoprotein on the surface or of the DNR inside the cells detected was not significantly different between the K562 and the K562/AS2 cell lines. CONCLUSIONS: A cell line, K562/AS2, resistant to clinical achieving level (2 ?mol/L) of As 2O 3 has been established. The relative resistant fold of K562/ AS2 to As 2O 3 is about 7.4 fold to the parent K562 line sensitive to As 2O 3. Partial resistance of K562/AS2 to DNR and VP16 is observed , the mechanism of which is unrelated to the P-gp, the expression product of multidrug resistance gene 1 (mdr1).

PurposeTo investigate the multi-slice spiral CT features of lung primary invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma, a rare malignancy with few relevant literature. Materials and Methods Forty-one patients with pathology proven primary invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma of the lungs underwent MSCT examination, of which 27 patients received intravenous contrast. Imaging features were analyzed, and the patients were divided into groups according to morphology, density and enhancement.Results For 41 patients, 40 cases had one lesion, and one case had more than one lesion; the lesions were in the right upper lobe in 5 cases, right middle lobe in one case, right lower lobe in 17 cases, left upper lobe in 5 cases, and left lower lobe in 12 cases. There was solitary lesion in 40 cases. The other patient had multiple lesions. 29 cases showed nodules/masses, while non-mass lesions in 12 cases. Ground glass opacity was seen in 4 cases, single consolidation in 11 cases, and mixed consolidation in 26 cases. There was significant contrast enhancement in nodules/masses compared to non-mass lesions (t=5.00, 6.51 and 14.06,P<0.05).Conclusion MSCT shows a diversity of imaging features of primary invasive mucinous adenocarcinom, including single round lesion, lower lobe in both side; the density is lower than muscle on CT scan, and presents mild to moderate enhancement on enhancement scan round lesions has high density and enhancement range than irregular-shaped lesions.

Objective:To investigate the causes of secondary glaucoma after vitrectomy for familial vitreous amyloidosis associated with transthyretin (TTR) gene Gly83Arg mutation.Methods:A retrospective case study. From January 2008 to January 2020, 13 cases (23 eyes) with hereditary vitreous amyloidosis and treated by vitrectomy in the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University were collected. Among them, there were 7 males with 12 eyes and 6 females with 11 eyes. The average age was 43.0±4.8 years. All the affected eyes underwent standard three-channel vitrectomy through the flat part of the ciliary body. According to whether complete vitreous detachment (PVD) was formed during the operation, it was divided into complete PVD group and incomplete PVD group; according to the occurrence time of secondary glaucoma and vitreous amyloidosis after surgery, it was divided into 1-12 months group and 13-36 months group, >37 months group. The average follow-up time after surgery was 36.7±6.0 months. The incidence of secondary glaucoma and the recurrence rate of vitreous amyloidosis between groups were compared by χ2 test; the correlation between recurrence of vitreous amyloidosis and secondary glaucoma after surgery was analyzed by Spearman rank correlation analysis. Results:Among the 23 eyes, there were 8 eyes in the complete PVD group and 15 eyes in the incomplete PVD group, respectively. Vitreous amyloidosis recurred in 15 eyes (65.22%, 15/23) after surgery. There were 14 (93.30%, 14/15) and 1 (6.70%, 1/15) eyes in the incomplete PVD group and the complete PVD group, respectively; the comparison of the recurrence rate of vitreous amyloidosis between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2=11.676, P<0.01). 1-12 months group, 13-36 months group, >37 months group included 1 (4.35%, 1/23), 12 (52.17%, 12/23), 2 (8.70%, 2/23) Only eye. The recurrence rate in the 13-36 months group was significantly higher than that in the 1-12 months group and >37 month group. Secondary glaucoma occurred in 11 eyes (47.80%, 11/23) after surgery. 1-12 months group, 13-36 months group, above 37 months group were 1 (4.35%, 1/23), 8 (34.78%, 8/23), 2 (8.70%, 2/23) eyes. The incidence of secondary glaucoma in the 13-36 months group was higher than that in the 1-12 months group and >37 months group. Among 11 eyes with secondary glaucoma, 10 eyes had recurrence of vitreous amyloidosis after surgery, and 1 eye had no recurrence. The results of Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that there was a positive correlation between the recurrence of vitreous amyloidosis and the occurrence of secondary glaucoma ( rs=0.516, P=0.012). Conclusion:The incidence of secondary glaucoma after vitrectomy in a family with vitreous amyloidosis caused by the Gly83Arg mutation of TTR gene is higher, and its occurrence is significantly positively correlated with the recurrence of vitreous amyloidosis.
