Objective To study the effects of enriched environment on the capacity of learning and memory and expression of brain derived neurotrophie factor(BDNF) expression of CA1 hippocampus in Wistar rats. Methods 20 male Wistar rats were raised from weaning(21 days old) to young adulthoed(50 -60 days old) in either an enriched or normal environment. The ability of learning and memory was measured with the Morris water maze test,and the expression of BDNF of CA1 hippocampus neuron was detected by immunohistochemistry. Results During Morris water maze test, the mean latency in enriched environment group was significantly shorter than that in the normal control group(24.37±5.45)s Vs (31.28±5.39)s;the time taken to cross the target in enriched environment group was significantly more than that in the normal control group(3.38±0.79)Vs (2.21± 0.49);the swimming distance of platform quadrant increased in the enriched environment group, and the decreased gray intensity of BDNF expression in CA1 hippoeampus was found in the enriched environment group. Conclusions Enriched environment can improve the capacity of learning and memory of the rats, which were realized may be through BDNF pathway.

Objective To explore drug abuse prevention measures by surveying the changes before and after methadone maintenance treatment(MMT). Methods The baseline survey data were obtained from patients who participated in the MTT program for the first time at Wuhan First Health Clinic of Mental Health Center Affiliated to Tongji Medical College between March 2006 and December 2013,and the general conditions of these patients were analyzed. Results There were 1 186 drug abusers, with a male and low education(junior high school and below)dominance. After the initiation of the MMT program,the number of addicted people was highest in 2008,and then gradually decreased after 2009.MMT program achieved obvious social benefits.The proportion of injectable drug use alone was decreased and the rates of oral drug use and snorting were increased over time.Fixed salary and temporary salary were obviously increased in drug abusers after 2009. Daily drug cost was decreased over time. The proportion of community/ media propaganda through which people got to know MMT remained low. Conclusion The community support and educational propaganda should be strengthened at the same time when MMT is carried out.

Objective To analyse the expressions and clinical significances of CXCR4,CXCL12 and PTEN in breast cancer.Methods The expressions of CXCR4,CXCL12 and PTEN in 60 cases of breast cancer were detected by immunohistochemistry technique SABC method.The correlations of levels of CXCR4,CXCL12 and PTEN expression and the age of patient,tumor diameter,histological grade,TNM stage,lymph node metastasis,ER status,Her-2 status,and vessel invasion were analysed.Twenty cases of breast fibroadenoma tissues and 20 cases of normal breast tissues were analysed as controls.Results The expressions of CXCR4 (x2 =48.754,P =0.000),CXCL12 (x2 =47.611,P =0.000) and PTEN (x2 =19.994,P =0.000) in breast cancer,normal breast tissues and breast fobroadenoma showed significant differences.The positive expressions of CXCR and CXCL12 were significantly correlated with histological grade (x2 =11.080,P =0.004;x2 =6.978,P =0.031),TNM stage (x2 =9.819,P =0.007;X2 =10.163,P =0.006),lymph node metastasis (x2 =6.213,P =0.013;x2 =8.031,P =0.005),ER (x2 =12.774,P =0.000;x2 =7.330,P=0.007),vessel invasion (x2 =5.860,P=0.013; x2 =5.185,P=0.020) and Her-2 (x2 =5.487,P =0.019;x2 =4.689,P =0.030).The expression of PTEN in breast cancer was significantly correlated with TNM stage (x2=7.366,P =0.025),lymph node metastasis (x2 =5.511,P =0.019) and ER state (x2 =4.077,P =0.043).There was a positive correlation between the expression of CXCR4 and the expression of CXCL12 in breast cancer (r =0.336,P =0.004).There was a negative correlation between the expression of CXCR4 and the expression of PTEN in breast cancer (r =-0.362,P =0.004).There was a negative correlation between the expression of CXCL12 and the expression of PTEN in breast cancer (r =-0.360,P =0.004).Conclusion The high expression of the chemokine CXCL12 and its receptor CXCR4 and the low expression of PTEN are closely related to the carcinogenesis and metastasis of breast cancer,which may play an important role in the development of breast cancer.

Objective To detect the expressions of Y-box-binding protein-1(YB-1)and epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)markers(E-cadherin and N-cadherin)in colorectal cancer(CRC),to analyze the relationship between the expression of YB-1 and clinicopathological parameters,to evaluate the correlations among YB-1,E-cadherin and N-cadherin. Methods The expressions of YB-1,E-cadherin and N-cadherin in 120 primary CRC tumors and corresponding normal tissues were detected by western blot and immunohistochem-istry and the results were analyzed. Results The expressions of YB-1,E-cadherin and N-cadherin in tumors were significantly different from those in corresponding normal tissues(χ2 = 47. 373,P ﹤ 0. 05;χ2 = 83. 145, P ﹤ 0. 05;χ2 = 41. 832,P ﹤ 0. 05). The expression of YB-1 in tumors was associated significantly with tumor differentiation,tumor invasion,lymph node metastasis and distance metastasis(χ2 = 8. 077,P = 0. 008;χ2 =8. 178,P = 0. 006;χ2 = 15. 152,P ﹤ 0. 001;χ2 = 7. 368,P = 0. 011). It was negatively correlated with E-cadherin expression(r = - 0. 238,P = 0. 009),but positively correlated with N-cadherin expression(r =0. 361,P ﹤ 0. 001). Conclusion YB-1 may promote the occurrence and development of CRC by participating in EMT program.

Objective To study the influence of Captopril preconditioning on apoptosis and the expression of gp 130 in rats of acute myocardial injured. Method Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups:control group, Iso group and Cap preconditioning group. Cardiomyocytes apoptosis was detected with TUNEL method. The expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax proteins in myocardium were tested by immunohistochemistry. The expression of gp 130 was tested with Western blot method. Results The index of cardiomyocytes apoptosis was decreased, the expressions of Bax proteins and gp 130 were decreased and the expression of Bcl-2 proteins was increased in Cap preconditioning group compared with Iso group (P<0.01 or P<0.05). Conclusion The expression of gp 130 could be decreased through Cap preconditioning, which can reduce the cardiomyocytes apoptosis.

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) markers are specific molecules to identify CSCs.Recent findings demonstrate that CSCs markers associated with colorectal cancer mainly include CD133,CD29,CD166,CD44,Nanog,etc.These markers can take park in the initiation and progression of cancers by various molecular mechanisms,which have the potential to be used as therapeutic targets as well as prognostic indicators.

Objective To assess the clinical features of newly diagnosed primary Sjogren's syndrome (pSS). Methods Patients were diagnosed according to the international consensus criteria for Sjogren's Syndrome published in 2002. Clinical manifestations and laboratory tests of 86 pSS cases hospitalized in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital in the past two years were reviewed. Results Among the 86 patients, 95.3% were female and the average disease onset age was 38.6 years. The median time from disease onset to diagnosis was 6 months. Dry mouth, dry eyes and arthralgia were the most common symptoms. Hematologic involvement was found to be prominent in these patients (69.8%). The incidence of abnormal liver function, interstitial lung disease and pulmonary arterial hypertension was 19.8%, 8.2% and 5.8% simultaneously. Younger patients (less than 18 years old) had lower frequency of dry mouth and dry eyes but higher ffrequency of fever and lymph nodes enlargement than the elderly patients (P<0.05). Patients with positive anti-SSA or anti-SSB antibodies had higher incidence of hematological changes as well as ESR than those with negative auto-antibodia. Elevated globulin/IgG and positive antinuclear antibody or rheumatoid factor (P< 0.05). Conclusion pSS is not always a benign disease. Some patients will develop vital organ damages very early and thus need to be identified and treated in time. It should not be overemphasize the importance of dry mouth and dry eyes for the diagnosis of pSS, especially in young patients. Those patients who have fever, high globulin level and positive rheumatoid factor of unknown origin should be screened for pSS.

Objective To study the function of human chorionie gonadotrophin(HCG) in adjus-ting the vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) in rabbit phallus with hypospadias. Methods Rabbit hypospadias mode was made by Finasteride. After the spontaneous delivery, 35 rabbits were divided into 5 groups with 7 in each group. Four groups accepted HCG intramuscular injection for 7 consecutive days with dosages of 100,200,400 and 600 U, respectively. The control group accepted the same dosage of saline injection. Another 7 normal rabbits were used as normal controls without in-tervention. After 3 weeks, the rabbit phallus tissue was collected and the VEGF levels were detected by ELISA. Results Rabbits with hypospadias accepted HCG 100, 200, 400, 600 U injection had the phallus tissue VEGF level of 5.00±2.37,5.63±1.73, 10.35±2.34 and 16.91±2.34 pg/ml, respectively. While the rabbits accepted saline injection had VEGF levels of 3.99±1.19 pg/ml. The normal rabbit phallus tissue contained VEGF level of 14.82±3.32 pg/ml. There were significant differences between normal group and the rabbits accepted HCG 100, 200, 400 U injection (P＜ 0.05), but there was no difference with the rabbits accepted HCG 600 U injection (P＞0.05). The VEGF level in rabbits accepted 400 U HCG injection had significant difference with rabbits accepted 100, 200, 600 U HCG (P＜0.05). The VEGF levels in rabbits accepted 100, 200 U HCG injection had no difference with rabbits accepted saline injection(P＞0.05). Conclusions The VEGF in rabbit phallus with hypospadias is decreased. HCG of certain dosage could increase VEGF level in rabbit phallus with hypospadias.
