Objective To investigate the correlation between midkine(MK) and VEGF expression with angiogenesis and biological features in recurrent gastric carcinoma.Methods The expression of MK was examined using immunohistochemistry in 9 cases of gastric carcinoma and 9 cases of adjacent normal tissues.Microvessel density(MVD)was determined by VEGF immunohistochemical staining.Results Majority of recurrent gastric carcinoma tissues showed positive reaction to immunostaining,but no specific positivity was detected in adjacent normal tissue.Values of MVD and MK positive group(88.8%,79.75) was higher than those in the negative group(15.0%)(P

?AlM: To analyze the result of ultrasound biomicroscopy ( UBM ) of patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment ( RRD ) who need to perform pars plana vitrectomy ( PPV ) to explore the value of clinical application of UBM at preoperation.
?METHODS:Patients who underwent PPV for RRD in our hospital from January to December 2014 were selected. The preoperative results of UBM were recorded and the positive findings of UBM were analyzed, the value of preoperative application of UBM was investigated.
?RESULTS:Totally 356 cases (357 eyes) of patients with RRD were received PPV. All patients were examined by UBM, 122 eyes ( 34. 17%) were positive, 56 eyes were ciliochoroidal detachment, 28 eyes were narrow anterior chamber angle, 6 eyes were chamber angle-closure, 28 eyes were ciliary body cyst, 4 eyes were iris cyst, 11 eyes were anterior proliferative vitreoretinopathy, 1 eye was retinal cyst. There were 12 eyes existing two lesions at the same times. ln this study, patients with choroidal detachment was detected by UBM in 56 eyes, the positive rate was 15. 7%, while 25 eyes was detected by B -ultrasonography, the positive was 7. 0%. The difference was statistical significant(χ2=13. 382, P<0. 05).
?CONCLUSlON: The patients with RRD have underwent PPV for the condition of illness, preoperative UBM can be examined to detect the condition of anterior chamber angle, iris, ciliary and anterior choroid, which is significant for comprehensively understanding the preoperative condition of patients, estimating the difficulty of the operation, and guiding operation and the postoperative follow-up.

Objective: To study the effect of gamma irradiation on the permeability of the blood brain barrier(BBB) in rat brains. Methods:The right caudate nucleuses of Sprague Dawley rats were irradiated by OUR XGD gamma units.Maximum dosages of 20,50,75 and 160 Gy were given using a 4 mm collimator.Immunohistochemistry with antibody of serum albumin was used for detecting the extravasation of endogenous serum components.Ultrastructural changes of BBB were observed through injection of lanthanum nitrate into blood vessels. Results: Extravasation of albumin and BBB opening in the right caudate nucleuses were detected as early as 12 h after irradiation at 50,75 and 160 Gy,and were detected 1 d after irradiation at 20 Gy.Immunoreactivity and emematous water reached their maximum after 3 d, gradually decreased during the following few days,and disappeared by day 7(20,50 Gy) or day 14(75 Gy).Irradiation at 160 Gy elicited persistent extravasation of albumin and BBB opening for 14 d. Conclusion: These are transient impairments to BBB after irradiation at 20,50,75 Gy,and persistent impairments after irradiaton at 160 Gy.

OBJECTIVETo observe the levels of high mobility group box-1 protein (HMGB1), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), IL-6, troponin I (Tn I) release in septic rats, and to explore themechanism of Taohong Qinlian Decoction (TQD) in the treatment of septic myocardial injury.

METHODSA total of 48 healthy male Wistar rats of clean grade were randomly divided into the sham-operation group (Sham), the sepsis model group (CLP), and the TQD treatment group (ZY), 16 in each group. Concen-trations of TNF-α, IL-6, Tn I, and HMGB1 expression were detected in each group at 24 and 48 h after operation. Pathological changes of cardiac muscle were observed under light microscope.

RESULTSConcentrations of TNF-α, IL-6, Tn I and HMGB1 at 24 and 48 h after operation were significantly higher in the CLP group than in the Sham group (P < 0.01). Concentrations of TNF-α, IL-6, Tn I, and HMGB1 at 24 and 48 h after operation were significantly lower in the ZY group than in the CLP group (P < 0.05). Myocardial injury occurred in the CLP and the ZY group under light microscope. And this injury was more severe in the CLP group than in the ZY group.

CONCLUSIONTQL could reduce the level of sepsis-related inflammatory cytokines and protect myocardium in septic rats.

The recombinant adenoviruses containing pGH cDNA and pGH cDNA with the first intron under the control of CMV promoter were constructed respectively by homogenous recombination method. The results showed that the recombinant adenoviruses could mediate pGH cDNA expression in CHO cells infected with the recombinant adenoviruses. The expression level of pGH cDNA with the first intron increased by 117% compared with pGH cDNA without intron. This indicate that the first intron of pGH gene have the function of improving the expression of the pGH gene.

One pair of primers were designed and synthesized on the base of the cDNA sequence encoding Schizosaccharomyces pombe N-glycanase reported on the GenBank. The cDNA sequence encoding Peptide N-glycanase was cloned from the Schizosaccharomyces pombe by RT-PCR. And then the RT-PCR product was cloned into the expression vector pET-15b. The expression vector pET-15b(+)/Png1p was transformed into E. coli BL21(DE3). The results showed that the relative molecular weight of the enzyme was determined to be approximately 39 kD using SDS-PAGE. The expression products after induction and purification can catalyze the cleavage of N-linked oligosaccharides from glycoprotein coped with heat, but have no action on the native glycoprotein with the help of DTT. The percentage of deglycosylated RNase B treated with equate Png1p in different reaction temperature, pH, concentration of DTT and denatured temperature showed that the optimum temperature, the optimum pH is 30 degrees C; the optimum concentration of DTT is 10 mmol/L and the optimum denatured temperature is 100 degrees C.
