Objective To investigate the in vitro effects of human bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSC) on Th17 cells of the human peripheral blood.Methods The density gradient centrifugation combined with lymphocyte separation medium was used to isolate hBMSC,which were then cultured.Cytokine IL-17 in the peripheral blood from a healthy person was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Proportion of Th17 cells was evaluated by flow cytometry.Results The expression level of IL-17 in spent culture supernatant of the healthy person PBMC and AML hBMSC was (292.32±37.25) pg/ml,and was significantly higher than that of the healthy person PBMC and healthy hBMSC [(169.64±17.47) pg/ml,P ＜ 0.01].There was no significant difference between the expression level of IL-17 in spent culture supernatant of the healthy person PBMC and ALL hBMSC [(159.89±23.71) pg/ml] and the level of the healthy person PBMC and hBMSC.The percentages of Th17 cells of co-culture systems from hBMSC,ALL-hBMSC,and AML-hBMSC and PBMC were (10.13±2.19) ％,(13.77±4.04) ％ and (21.53±5.05) ％,respectively,with the result between AML patients and healthy people being statistically different (P ＜ 0.01).ALL patients and healthy people showed no difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion AML-hBMSC promotes the CD~ T cells to generate Th17 cells,which suggests that the MSC from AML marrow may play a role in the regulation of immune suppression.

Abstract: Objective　To investigate the infection of Anisakis in marine fish sold in Fuxin, and conduct molecular identification and evolutionary tracing of third-stage larvae to determine Anisakis species. Methods　From 2018 to 2021, marine fish sold in the market were collected randomly, and the third stage larvae of Anisakis were detected in marine fish sold in the market by direct dissection, and the morphological characteristics were used to preliminarily identify species by microscopy; the total DNA was extracted, the internal transcribed spacer sequence of the ribosomal DNA of Anisakis was amplified, and the sequence alignment and evolution analysis were carried out. Results　A total of 289 market-sold sea fish samples of marine fish sold in the market were dissected and 84 samples of Anisakis were detected with a detection rate of 29.1%, of which the infection rates of hairtail and small yellow croaker were higher, at 41.4% and 41.2%, respectively. BLAST comparison of 28 sequences revealed eight species of anisakids, including Anisakis pegreffii, Anisakis simplex, Anisakis typical, Raphidascaris trichiurid, Contracaecum muraenesoxi, Hysterothylcaium zhoushanensis, Hysterothylacium amoyense and Hysterothylcaium fabri,belonging to the genera Anisakis and Hysterothylacium. The phylogenetic tree constructed from 28 sequences generally formed two topological branches, with Anisakis pegreffii, Anisakis simplex, and Anisakis typical forming three separate clusters as the topology branch of Anisakis genus. However, meanwhile, Hysterothylacium, Contracaecum, and Raphidascaris formed a separate topological branch. Conclusions　The marine fish sold in Fuxin City have severe anisakid infection, with a wide variety of anisakid species, the dominant species being Anisakis pegreffii.

HSP90, which is the biomarker of cell stress and endogenous protective protein, functions as a molecular chaperone. Many client proteins of HSP90, including EGFR, Met, Raf-1, IKK and p53, play important roles in the occurrence and development of tumor. Binding of HSP90 inhibitors triggers the deactivation of HSP90, resulting in client protein degradation, and hence inhibits the tumor growth by blocking multiple targets involved in signaling of tumor proliferation. This review summarizes recent development of small molecule inhibitors bound to N-terminal of HSP90.

Objective To report 11 cases with the tissue defects of their upper or lower limbs repaired with the anastomsed medial sural artery perforator flaps.Methods The free medial sural artery perforator flaps,with length of 8 cm to 15 cm and width of 6 cm to 14 cm were used for tissue defect reconstruction of the distal upper or lower limbs in 11 cases,including 6 females and 5 males.The flap was harvested from the ho- mo-lateral calf,confined between the posterior-medial edge of the tibia and the middle line of the calf and a- bove the distal half part of the medial sural muscle,with a same axis of this muscle.Results Ten cases survived very well,which was relatively thin,and the donor site can be acceptable.One case resulted in a complete flap necrotized and covered with a split skin graft.No obvious motor function defect was observed of the donor leg.Conclusion The anastomsed medial sural artery perforator flap is alternative donor flap for the upper or lower limb tissue defect repair,especially for the defect in the hand or foot.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of three-dimensional contrast-enhanced ultrasonography(3D-CEUS) of hepatic arteries in liver transplant candidates.Methods Twenty-six liver transplantation donors and recipients were examined using two-dimensional contrast-enhanced ultrasound (2D-CEUS) and 3D-CEUS.The 3D image's qualities, reconstruction successful rates, and the diagnostic level of hepatic artery complications were estimated. Results Twenty-one hepatic arteries were reconstructed successfully (80.8%).The 3D images showed artery trees continuous, spatial relationship definite, fine and circuitous branches distinct, and the segmental hepatic arteries' origin could be recognized.In 4 of 5 hepatic artery complications,both 2D-CEUS and 3D-CEUS made the correct diagnoses.However,2D-CEUS made a false positive diagnosis and 3D-CEUS retrieved it.Conclusions The 3D-CEUS images of the hepatic arteries are direct and distinct.In evaluating hepatic artery complications, when artery spatial relationship is complicated, the 3D-CEUS could provide more information, and confirm or correct some diagnosis of 2D-CEUS.

Objective To explore the relationship between the anastomotic plane and gastric esophageal reflux by analysizing three different anastomotic plan pressure and esophageal 24 h dynamic pH.Methods From June 2011 to March 2012, 45 patients with esophageal cancer had undergone radical surgery.According to the different locations of esophageal carcinoma, we divided patients into three groups(cervical esophagogastrostomy group, above aortic arches for esophagogastrostomy group, low aortic arches for esophagogastrostomy group).we monitored the LESP, esophageal wet swallowing peristalsis amplitude and 24 h dynamic pH value two days before surgery, and monitored the anastomotic plane pressure, residual esophageal wet swallowing peristalsis amplitude and 24 h dynamic pH value 1 month and 2 months after surgery in the same way.Results Three groups' difference of LESP, esophageal wet swallowing peristalsis amplitude and percentage of total time of 24 h dynamic pH ＜4in preoperative was not statistically significant.The difference of esophagogastrostomy plane pressure in postoperative was not statistically significant, but the wet swallowing peristalsis amplitude and percentage of total time of 24 h dynamic pH ＜ 4 in postoperative was statistically significant.Three groups' difference of LESP(compared with esophagogastrostomy plane pressure), wet swallowing peristalsis amplitude and percentage of total time of 24 h dynamic pH ＜ 4 between preoperative and postoperative was also statistically significant.Conclusion For patients with esophageal neoplasms, we should completely resection the tumor, and remain esophagus as much as possible.

Objective To investigate the perioperative characteristics and changing trends of gastric electrical activity of thoracic (tube) stomach in patients with esophageal cancer.Methods The clinical data of 30 patients with esophageal cancer who were admitted to the Sichuan Cancer Hospital between March 2013 and November 2013 were prospectively analyzed.All the eligible patients underwent esophageal cancer resection by Ivor-Lewis according to the inclusion criteria.The electrogastrograms of patients were recorded at preoperative day 1 and at postoperative day 3,7, 11 and 30.The electrogastrograms

of slow gastric slow wave, percentage of tachycardia gastric slow wave of thoracis (tube) stomach, they have changed dynamically in the perioperative period.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of Liuwei Dihuang Pills (LWDHP) on expressions of apoptosis-related genes bcl-2 and Bax in pancreas of OLETF rats. METHODS: Forty male OLETF rats were randomly divided into LWDHP-treated group and untreated group. Another ten male LETO rats were included in normal control group. OLETF rats in the LWDHP-treated group were given LWDHP (2.4 g.kg(-1).d(-1)) orally since the age of 8 weeks and the rats in the other two groups were given distilled water orally. Body weights of rats were recorded weekly and blood glucose concentration was determined by oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Pancreas weights were recorded after rats were killed and the expression levels of bcl-2 mRNA and Bax mRNA were detected by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). RESULTS: In the LWDHP-treated group, the expression of bcl-2 mRNA in the pancreas of rats at the age of 40 weeks (1.25+/-0.07) was much higher than that in the untreated group (1.01+/-0.16), P<0.01. Bax mRNA level in the LWDHP-treated group (0.57+/-0.11) was obviously lower than that in the untreated group (1.18+/-0.28), P<0.01. There was no significant difference of pancreas-to-body weight ratios between the LWDHP-treated group and the untreated group. The ability of glucose tolerance was improved in the LWDHP-treated group. CONCLUSION: LWDHP can up-regulate the expression of bcl-2 and down-regulate the expression of Bax at transcription level, which maybe contribute to the anti-apoptosis effects of LWDHP.

Objective To evaluate the role of emergency and staged hepatectomy in peritoneal metastasis associated with ruptured hemorrhage of resectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients,and investigate the impact of surgery timing-selecting on peritoneal metastasis of postoperative HCC patients.Methods A retrospective analysis was conduct on the pooled data from 38 HCC patients with spontaneously ruptured hemorrhage treated in our hospital from August 2011 to January 2016.These patients were divided into emergency group who underwent hepatectomy within 24 hours at admission,and staged group who underwent the procedure one week after admission.Perioperative events,overall survival (OS) and disease-freesurvival (DFS) rates,incidence of recurrent and metastatic disease were compared between the two groups.Results The perioperative blood loss and transfusion were much more in emergency group than staged group (both P ＜ 0.05).Nevertheless,the incidence of postoperative mortality was not significantly different (6.0％ vs 0％,P ＞ 0.05).The median survival was 22.5 months in emergency group versus 14.2 months in staged group.The 6-month,1-year,3-year OS rates in emergency group were 88.2％,82.4％ and 30.3％ respectively,and 6-month,1-year,3-year DFS rates were 81.3％,54.7％ and 27.3％.The 1-year OS and 6-month DFS rates were higher than those of staged group (both P ＜ 0.05).The incidence of peritoneal metastasis in staged group was higher than that in emergency group,but it was not significantly different (38.1％ vs 29.4％,P ＞ 0.05).Univariate and multivariate analysis indicated that tumor diameter ≥ 10 cm and AFP ＞ 10 000 μg/L were the risk factors for peritoneal metastasis after hepatectomy for HCC patients with spontaneously ruptured hemorrhage.Conclusions Emergency hepatectomy would warrant a better short-term prognosis compared with staged hepatectomy for the HCC patients with spontaneously ruptured hemorrhage.Staged hepatectomy would not raise the possibility of postoperative peritoneal metastasis.The predictors of tumor diameter ≥ 10 cm and AFP ＞ 10 000 μg/L were risk factors for peritoneal metastasis after hepatectomy for spontaneously ruptured HCC patients.
