Cancer Research and Clinic 2010;22(7):473-475
Objective To explore the expression of cell apoptosis regulatory elements in esophageal canceration course. Methods 60 specimens of esophageal carcinoma and corresponding adjacent no cancerous tissue were detected quantitatively by propidium iodide(PI) stain and indirect immunofluorescence of fluorescein isothiocyanate(FITC) using flow cytometry(FCM) equipment. Results Expression of bcl-2 and c-FLIP in esophageal carcinoma was significantly higher, and Fadd, Caspase-8 and Caspase-3 were significantly lower than that in adjacent tissues (P <0.01). There was positive correlation between Fadd and Caspase-8 gene (P <0.01 or P <0.05). The expression of Fadd was positively correlated to Caspase-8. Comparing with normal epithelium and dysplasia tissue, DNA content and heteroploid cells were increased significantly in esophageal carcinoma. Conclusion During the esophageal canceration course, expressions of relevant cell apoptosis regulatory elements were abnormal. DNA content and heteroploid cells were increased significantly in esophageal carcinoma.

Chinese Journal of Infection Control 2016;15(4):254-257,261
Objective To understand drug resistance in patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS)after antiretroviral therapy(ART).Methods Articles about drug resistance in HIV/AIDS patients after ART were retrieved from Wangfang data,China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),and PubMed. Meta analysis were performed.Results 15 articles (1 English and 14 Chinese) were extracted,quality score of 3,4,and 8 articles was 6,7,and 8 respectively. Heterogeneity of the included stud-ies showed the difference was significant (Q= 45.98,P<0.001),there was heterogeneity,random-effects models was conducted for Meta analysis,which revealed that the overall drug resistance rate in HIV/AIDS patients in China was 4% (4% -5% );Begg's test showed that P= 0.012,there was publication bias. After articles were excluded through sensitivity analysis,the combined effect was still 4% (4% -5% ).Conclusion The overall drug resistance rate in Chinese HIV/AIDS patients after ART is not high.

China Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Pharmacy 2005;0(04):-
Objective: To observe the effect of different caesalpinia sappan extract on the Mice thymus tissue, peripheral T-cell proliferation and the production of INF-?. Methods: To make preparation of different caesalpinia sappan extract and give them to the mice, weighing the mice thymus and calculating the thymus index 7 days later. The MTT method was used to measure the proliferation ability of T-cells of the mouse spleen. A double antibody sandwich ELISA was used to detect INF-? content in T-cells culture supernatant. Results: The different caesalpinia sappan extract not only have clear inhibitory effect on the weight of thymus but also have inhibitory effect on the proliferation of T-cells and the production of INF-?. The inhibitory effect of caesalpinia sappan ethanol extract and n-butanol extract on the T-cells is much stronger.

Objective To characterize the effects of AQP1 expression on kidney damage in rat disseminated intravascular coagulation(DIC) caused by lipopolysaccharide(LPS) dosing. Method Fifty male Wistar rats (clean grade) were randomly assigned into 5 groups of 10 rats. The 10 control rats were dosed with 10 ml of 0.9%NaCl solution by a drip via the vena caudalis within 4 h, and blood and tissues were obtained after treatment completion. In the DIC groups, the rats were dosed with LPS (30 mg/kg body weight in 10 ml of 0.9% NaCl solution) by a drip via the vena caudalis within 4 h, and blood and tissues were obtained at 4, 6, 8 and 10 h. The blood platelet(PLT) count, prothrombin time(PT) , activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT), fibrin(FIB) and D-dimer(D-D) were detected. Hematoxylin and eosin(HE) staining was used to examine the pathologic changes in the lung and kidney tissues of each group (both hematologic parameters and tissue pathologic changes were used to judge the course of DIC). The AQP1 gene expression levels in the kidney tissues from the groups were evaluated by the mRNA levels using RT-PCR. Statistical analyses were performed by the SNK- q method. Results The PLT count, PT, APTT, FIB and D-D examinations revealed remarkable changes in all DIC groups compared with the control group (P < 0.01). The AQP1 mRNA level was significantly decreased in the DIC group at 4 h compared with the control group (P < 0.01) , and further decreased to the minimum level in the DIC group at 6 h. Moreover, cloudy swelling of renal tubular cells was observed at 6 h and cell degeneration and necrosis were observed at 8 h among the DIC groups. Conclusions Downregulation of AQP1 mRNA expression occurred before damage to the renal tubular cells in DIC, indicating that AQP1 expression may be involved in the kidney damage observed in rat DIC.

Objective To study the influence of bFGF gene transfected bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) on the inflammatory cytokines of COPD rat. Methods The BMSCs were separated from SD rat and cultured and then bFGF gene was imported to BMSCs by liposome transfection method. The samples were prepared into six groups: normal control group, COPD group (A), BMSCs group (B), pcDNA3.1-BMSCs group (C), bFGF-pcDNA3.1-BMSCs group (D), and bFGF group (E). The expressions of TNF-α and IL-1β by QRT-PCR were detected. Results Compared with COPD group, TNF-α and IL-1β genes from groups B to D dropped significantly (P < 0.05). The changes of TNF-α and IL-1β genes among groups B to D showed no significant difference (P > 0.05). Conclusion BFGF transfected BMSCs, sample BMSCs and pcDNA3.1 transfected BMSCs can inhibit the expression of inflammatory cytokines of TNF-α and IL-1β, but there is no obvious advantage in comparison to bFGF transfected BMSCs and sample BMSCs in respect of inhibiting the expression of inflammatory cytokines of TNF-α and IL-1β.

Objective To investigate the protective effects of ambroxol on lung during perioperation in elderly patients with myasthenia gravis.Methods 58 elderly patients diagnosed as myasthenia gravis combined with thymic disease were divided into treatment group and control group randomly.During the perioperation,the treatment group was treated with ambroxol,while the control group was not.Comparative analysis of pulmonary complications,pulmonary ventilation indexes,blood gas indexes,and serum concentration of C-reactive protein (CRP),tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α),interleukin 1β (IL-1β) and IL-10 was performed.Results The incidence rate of postoperative pulmonary complications (pulmonary atelectasis,pneumonia and bronchitis) was significantly lower in the treatment group in the control group (9.4% vs 15.6%,P<0.05).Peak inspiratory pressure (PIP) and resistance of air way (RAW) were lower in treatment group than in control group [(22.32±3.43) cmH2O vs (26.54±4.81) cmH2O,(29.17±5.74) cmH2O· L-1s-1vs (34.47±7.94) cmH2O · L-1 · s-1 both P<0.05],while compliance of lung (CL) washigher in treatment group than in control group [(106.04±-14.73)ml/cmH2O vs (95.11±9.50) ml/cmH2O,P<0.05].Two days after operation,PaO2,SaO2 and PaO2/FiO2 were significantly higher in treatment group than in control group [(89.66 ±13.23) mmHg vs (70.94±12.75) mmHg,(96.95±2.65)% vs (89.44±2.78)%,(219.47±54.05)mmHg vs (187.38±37.72) mmHg,respectively,all P<0.05].Serum concentration of CRP,TNF-α,IL-1β were lower and serum level of IL-10 was higher in treatment group than in control group [(29.37 ± 14.87)mg/L vs (43.94 ±21.42) mg/L,(35.55±4.74)μg/L vs.(52.80±6.63) μg/L,(17.06±6.85)μg/L vs.(28.62±7.72) μg/L],[(132.84± 12.91)μg/L vs.(87.18± 16.37)μg/L,respectively,all P<0.05].Conclusions Ambroxol hydrochloride can effectively reduce the incidence rate of postoperative pulmonary complications after thymectomy,improve the pulmonary ventilation function,and inhibit the inflammatory reaction in elderly patients with myasthenia gravis,which is worthy of wide application in the perioperation.
