Objective This study was to explore the inhibitory effect of shRNA-VEGF - C on growth of human colon cancer cell line Lovo in vitro and vivo. Methods Recombinant VEGF-C short hairpin RNA (shRNA) plasmid was constructed and transfected into Lovo cells. The expression of VEGF-C was detected at mRNA and protein levels by real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). In vivo study, xenograft tumors were established by injecting LOVO cells into nude mice, then shR-NA-VEGF-C were injected into the tumors, the tumor volume and weight and the incidences of lymph node metastasis were detected. Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the lymphatic microvessel density of colon cancer tissues. Results After transfection of shRNA-VEGF-C, the mRNA of VEGF-C in Lovo cells were down-regulated. Four weeks after injection, the tumor volume and tumor weight in VEGF-C-shR-NA group were significantly smaller than that in empty plasmid group and NS group [(324. 9 ± 64. 8 ) mm3 vs. (553.5±90. 1)mm3 and (570. 1±85.4)mm3; (3.01 ±0.55)g vs (4.65 ±0.65)g and (4.75 ±0. 75)g]. The incidences of lymph node metastasis (30. 1% ) were significantly inhibited compared with empty plasmid group (50. 2% ) and normal saline group (53. 1% ). In shRNA-VEGF-C group, and microlymphatic density (15.5 ± 6. 90) was also decreased compared with empty plasmid group (24. 18 ±6. 45 ), and normal saline group (29. 59 ± 8. 21 ) ( all P <0. 01 ). Conclusion shRNA-VEGF-C can inhibit the growth of LOVO cells in vitro and vivo. VEGF-C may inhibit the lymph node metastasis of colon cancer by suppressing lymphangiogenesis.

Methods Plasma level of IL-13 in patients with MsPGN and in normal control groups were examined by ELISA. The expression of IL-13 in patients with MsPGN and in control group were examined by immune histochemistry ABC technique in renal tissue.Results Plasma levels of IL-13 in patients with MsPGN were significantly higher than that in control group,and the highest was found in IgAN;IL-13 expressions in glomerulus and tubulointerstitial zone in patients with MsPGN were higher than that in control group, and IL-13 expression in tubulointerstitial zone was more strong,but it was not distinctive difference between non-IgA MsPGN and IgAN. Conclusion IL-13 may play an important role in the molecular pathogenesis of MsPGN.

Objective To analyze the characteristic of twenty-item premature behavioral neurological assessment,and to assess the risk factors of neonatal behavioral neurological assessment(NBNA) in premature infants. Methods Total two hundred and seventy-four premature infants hospitalized in Guangzhou Children's Hospital were assessed with the NBNA after correcting age 40 weeks,premature infants were divided into two groups:normal group (n =221 ) and abnormal group (n =53) according to NBNA. The birth history, mother pregnancy situation, the disease during neonatal period and results in hospital were reviewed,and the risk factors of NBNA in premature infants were assessed. Results There were significant differences in gestational age, birth weight, head circumference, body height, Apgar score, resuscitation time, hospitalization time and total gastrointestinal nutrition time between the two groups( P ＜ 0. 05 ). The incidences of superfoetation,hyaline membrane disease, hemorrhagic and hypoxic brain injury, severe infection, hyperbilirubinemia, hypoglycemia and chronic lung disease were different between the two groups( P ＜ 0. 05 ). There were no differences in gender, antenatal hormone use, anaemia, hypotension and evoked potential abnormality (P ＞0. 05 ). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factors of NBNA score in premature infants would include low Apgar score, low birth weight, hyaline membrane disease, hemorrhagic and hypoxic brain injury, severe infection, hyperbilirubinemia, hypoglycemia and chronic lung disease. Conclusion Although the premature infants corrected age 40 weeks,but the capability and initiative muscular tension are still lower than term infant. Low Apgar score, low birth weight, hyaline membrane disease, hemorrhagic and hypoxic brain injury ,severe infection ,hyperbilirubinemia,hypoglycemia and chronic lung disease are important risk factors related to premature behavioral neurological assessment.
