Objective Pathologically, sometimes it is rather difficult to make differential diagnosis among hepatocellular, cholangiocellular and mixed type of hepatic tumors. The aim of this study was to analyze the immunohistochemical features of mixed type of hepatocarcinoma and to propose some useful diagnostic criteria. Methods Fifteen cases of the hepatic tumor were examined by routine histological and immunohistochemical methods with S P technique. Results The mixed type of hepatic tumor accounted for 3.39% of all cases of primary hepatocarcinoma in the same period. Histologically, all the mixed type of hepatic tumors revealed some characteristics of hepatocellular and cholangiocellular carcinomas, one of them was collision tumor. Immunohistochemically, 10 cases of the tumor were positive for ? fetal protein(AFP) in the hepatocellular carcinoma area, while all 15 tumors were negative for AFP in all cholangiocellular carcinoma areas. Cytokeratin(CK8) was positive in the hepatocellular carcinoma areas of all mixed tumor, whereas positive in cholangiocellular carcinoma areas of 13 cases; CK19 was positive in cholangiocellular carcinoma areas of all the tumors, while positive in hepatocellular carcinoma areas of 13 cases. Bcl 2 gene product was positive in 66.7% of this tumor, in which it was mainly expressed in cholangiocellular tumor area and in hepatocellular areas of five cases. AB/PAS stain for mucin was positive in cholangiocellular tumor regions of all the tumors. Conclusions Diagnosis of mixed hepatocarcinoma should be made mainly based on combined analysis of the data from pathological features, immunohistochemical phenotypes and histochemical stain for mucinous material.

OBJECTIVE To construct a lentiviral vector of RNA interference (RNAi) of MMP-9 gene and observe its inhibitive role on the invasion of laryngeal cancer cells.METHODS The effective sequence of siRNA targeting MMP-9 gene was confirmed.Both sense and antisense Oligo DNA of the targeting sequence was designed,synthesized and cloned into the pLVTHM vector,which contained H1 promoter and green fluorescent protein (GFP).The resulting lentiviral vector containing MMP-9 shRNA was called LV2 shMMP-9,and it was confirmed by PCR and sequencing.After that,MMP-9 shRNA was transfected into Hep-2 cells and western blot was used to test the expression of MMP-9.At last,Boyden Chamber was used to observe the invasion of the Hep-2 cells.

AIM: To compare the clinical outcomes of pterygium excision followed by translocation of adjacent conjunctival autograft with stem cells or transplantation of conjunctival autograft with stem cells to treat and prevent the recurrence of pterygium.METHODS: Fifty patients (60 eyes) were divided into 2groups, and pterygium excision followed by translocation of adjacent conjunctival autograft with stem cells (group A) and pterygium excision followed by transplantation of conjunctiva autograft harvested from counter-side limbus with stem cells (group B) were performed respectively.The surgical time of each case was recorded.RESULTS: All the 50 cases (60 eyes) of pterygium were recruited. The epithelization of cornea and conjunctiva in all cases finished in 2-5d, During the follow-up of 6-12mo, pterygium reoccurred in 2 cases (1 in each group), with no difference in recurrence rate. The mean surgical time was 25± 8min for group A,43± 11min for group B, the difference being statistically significant (P＜0.05, t-test).CONCLUSION: Both methods, pterygium excision followed by translocation of adjacent conjunctival autograft with stem cells or transplantation of conjunctival autograft with stem cells are effective on treating and reducing the recurrence of pterygium. Compared with the latter, pterygium excision followed by translocation of adjacent conjunctival autograft with stem cells is simpler and easier to perform, and is preferred by the patients too.

Objective To observe the expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG), receptor activator of nuclear factor κβ ligand(RANKL) and receptor activator of nuclear factor κβ (RANK) in bone tissue of rats with chronic fluorosis and to explore the relation between OPG/RANKL/RANK system and bone damage in chronic fluoride poisoning rat and the antagonism effects of Danlan Xianpeng capsule. Methods SD rats were randomly divided into six groups according to body weight (equal male and female in each group): fluorosis group, high dose drug group, medium dose drug group, low dose drug group, control group, borax group(positive control), 12 rats in each group. The control group drank tap water and the remaining 5 experimental groups consumed 50 mg/L fluoride water, and high, medium and low doses drug group took Danlan Xianpeng capsule at doses of 0.8,0.4,0.2 g/kg,borax group took borax at dose of 0.8 g/kg. OPG, RANKL, RANK protein in rat tibial metaphysis was detected by immunohistochemistry at the 6 month. Results Compared with the control group(173.79 ± 5.23, 174.17 ± 5.01,155.63 ± 7.11), the expressions of OPG, RANKL were increased and the expression of RANK was decreased in fluorosis group(156.83 ± 5.80, 157.74 ± 6.70, 173.92 ± 4.37), the difference was statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.05). Compared with the fluorosis group, the expression of OPG and RANKL were decreased and the expression of RANK was increased in high-dose drug group, middle-dose drug group(169.67±5.07, 168.08 ± 5.05,162.12 ± 4.24, 170.78 ± 5.01, 168.41 ± 7.19, 166.69 ± 5.78, all P ＜ 0.05). Compared with the borax group (167.27 ± 4.08, 167.85 ± 5.01, 166.14 ± 3.95), the expression of OPG and RANKL was increased in the low-dose drug group (163.40 ± 4.11, 159.49 ± 5.78), the expression of RANK was increased in the high-dose drug group (162.12 ± 4.24) and decreased in the low-dose drug group(171.54 ± 8.06), the difference was statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.05). Conclusions Chronic fluoride poisoning can cause increased bone turnover and enhance the activity of osteoelastic absorption by increasing RANKL. Danlan Xianpeng capsule can affect bone remodeling through the OPG/RANKL/RANK system, and antagonises bone damage caused by fluoride.

Objective To evaluate serum organochlorine pesticides and residues levels in breast cancer pa-tients between the seriously and lightly earthquake-striken areas of Tangshan. Methods 93 patients of breast cancer from seriously earthquake-striken areas and 65 patients from lightly earthquake-striken areas were selected as study subjects,which serum organochlorine pesticides (DDTs and HCHs) levels were detected and compared with gas chromatography/electron capture. Results Serum organochlorine pesticides and residues levels in 158 patients be-tween the seriously and lightly earthquake-striken areas of Tangshan were not normal distributed. The order of detec-tion rate of HCH isomer in breast cancer patients between the seriously and lightly earthquake-striken areas were β-HCH>δ-HCH >α-HCH >γ-HCH. The orders of detection rate of DDT isomer in breast cancer patients between two areas of Tangshan were PP'-DDE > PP'-DDT > OP'-DDT > PP'-DDD. The serum levels of α-HCH,β-HCH, PP'-DDE and PP'-DDD in breast cancer patients between the seriously and lightly earthquake-striken areas were statistically different. Conclusion The levels of organechlorine pesticides and residues in serum with high detection rate in seri-ously earthquake-striken area are higher than that in lightly earthquake-striken area. It is likely that there is an asso-ciation with a large number of organechlorine pesticides sprayed.

OBJECTIVE To elucidate the toxicological properties of CdTe quantum dots (CdTe QD) by investigating their effect on mitophagy in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).METHODS The purity of primarily cultured HUVECs was detected by immunofluorescence.Then,HUVECs were incubated with CdTe QD 0.1-100 mg· L-1 for 24 h.After treatment,the cell viability of HUVECs was detected with MT-T assay.The mitochondrial morphology was observed under a laser scanning confocal microscope after labeling with Mitotracker.The treated HUVECs were also labeled with JC-1 probe,and the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) was then examined by flow cytometry.The expression of mitophagy-related proteins including microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 Ⅰ /Ⅱ (LC3 Ⅰ /Ⅱ),moesin-like BCL2-induced protein1(Beclin1),phosphatase and tensin (PTEN) homologinduced putative kinase 1(PINK1) and dynamin-related protein Ⅰ (DRP1) was determined by Westem blotting.RESULTS More than 95％ of the cultured cells expressed vascular endothelial cadherin and herein were vascular endothelial cells.The MTT result showed that the cell survival of HUVECs was significantly decreased after incubation with CdTe QD (0.1-100 mg,L-1) for 24 h (P＜0.05,P＜0.01).CdTe QD also induced extensive fragmentation of the mitochondrial network.The results of JC-1 assay showed that CdTe QD (0.1-100 mg· L-1) caused the disruption of MMP.The percentage of HUVECs with higher MMP was reduced from (91.8±0.6)％ in cell control group to (90.2±1.1)％,(84.4±0.9)％ (P＜0.05) and (78.1 ±1.3)％ (P＜0.01),respectively.The Western blotting data suggested that CdTe QD 10 mg·L-1 significantly increased the expression of autophagy-related protein beclin 1 and the ratio of LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ (P＜0.05,P＜0.01),CdTe QD 1 mg· L-1 also raised the level of mitophagy-related proteins like PINK1 and DRP1.CONCULSION CdTe QD can induce mitochondrial dysfunction as well as mitophagy in HUVECs.
