Objective To explore the possible effects of hepatocyte growth factors (HGF) on prevention and therapy of disused gastrocnemius atrophy in rats by observing their effects on the wet weight and contractile function of the gastrocnemius of fixed hind limbs. Methods Twenty-four Wister male rats were randomly divided into a blank group, a contrast group and an experimental group. Their right hind limbs were fixed for four weeks with plastic piaster from metatarsus to 1 cm up the knee. Their knee joint was fixed in 100?flexion and their ankle joint in 60?plantar flexion. Rats in the contrast group were injected with 0. 2 mL of normal saline, and rats in the ex- perimental group were injected with HGF (10 mg/kg, 10 mg/mL). Their whole gastrocnemius of the right hind limb was dissected four weeks later to measure its contractile function and wet weight. Results Compared with the blank group, single maximal contraction, maximal tetanus, and wet weight of the gastrocnemius in the contrast and experimental groups decreased significantly (P＜0. 05), and fields of electric stimulation also decreased signifi- cantly (P＜0. 05). Compared with the contrast group, single maximal contraction, maximal tetanus, and wet weight of the gastrocnemius in the experimental group were significantly superior (P＜0.05), and fields of electric stimulation significantly increased. Conclusion Since after a local injection of HGF, the contractile function and wet weight can be significantly increased, HGF may have a preventive effect on disused atrophy.

Background:Pyruvate kinase M2( PKM2 ),which is highly expressed in cancer cells,plays an important role in cancer cell growth and aerobic glycolysis and is a promising target for cancer therapy. Aims:To investigate the effect of silencing PKM2 by siRNA on proliferation,apoptosis,migration,invasion and glycolysis of gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901 cells. Methods:SGC-7901 cells were divided into three groups:non-transfectd SGC-7901 cells,SGC-7901 cells transfected with empty plasmid and SCG-7901 cellls transfected with PKM2 siRNA. Expression of PKM2 was detected by fluorescent quantitative PCR and Western blotting at mRNA and protein levels. Intracellular expression and distribution of PKM2 was determined by immunofluorescence. CCK-8 assay,flow cytometry,migration and invasion experiment were used to assess cell proliferation,apoptosis,migration and invasion,respectively. Western blotting was used to determine the expression of glucose transporter-1( Glut-1)and lactate dehydrogenase A( LDHA). Spectrophotometry was used to detect levels of extracellular glucose and lactic acid and intracellular lactate dehydrogenase( LDH). Results:Compared with non-transfected group and negative control( empty plasmid )group,PKM2 mRNA and protein expressions were significantly decreased in PKM2 siRNA plasmid transfected group(P<0. 05). Intracellular expression of PKM2 was markedly decreased in PKM2 siRNA cells. After transfected with PKM2 siRNA plasmid,cell proliferation,migration and invasion were significantly inhibited,and cell apoptosis was increased significantly( P<0. 05 ). Expressions of Glut-1 and LDHA were down-regulated in PKM2 silenced cells( P <0. 05 ). Glucose uptake,lactic acid production and LDH activities were significantly decreased in PKM2 silenced cells(P<0. 05). Conclusions:RNA interference targeting PKM2 gene inhibits PKM2 expression in human gastric adenocarcinoma cell line SGC-7901 cells,thereby inhibits cell proliferation and glycolysis.

Objective:To count and analyze the residue of narcotics for injection after the use in operation rooms in order to find the possibility of risk avoiding and management standardization. Methods:A retrospective research method was adopted to count and analyze 10268 prescriptions including narcotics for injection in operation rooms from June to August in 2014. Results:Ketamine hydro-chloride injection had the largest residue and its remaining amount also occupied the largest proportion of medication. The second one was pethidine hydrochloride injection and the third one was remifentanil hydrochloride for injection. The highest ratio of remaining a-mount in each prescription was ketamine hydrochloride injection, and the second one was morphine hydrochloride injection and pethi-dine hydrochloride injection ranked the third. Conclusion:It is suggested to reduce the specification of medication with the highest ra-tio of remaining amount in each prescription such as ketamine hydrochloride injection, and improve the management efficiency for the use of narcotics in operation rooms.
