Objective:To observe anti-DR5 monoclonal antibody on apoptosis and CDC effect in EC109 cells.Methods:The anti-DR5 monoclonal antibody was prepared by hybridoma technique.Tumoricidal effects and complement-dependent cytotoxicity of the McAb to EC109 cells was screened by MTT assay.The apoptosis of EC109 cells was detected by flow cytometry with annexin Ⅴ-FITC/PI staining.Morphological change of EC109 was observed by microphotograph.Results:An anti-DR5 monoclonal antibody was obtained.It induced apoptosis of EC109 dose dependently.The cytotoxic action was notably enhanced by addition of complement.The cells growth inhibition ratios reached 83.04%.The apoptotic body and cathepsis were seen in microphotograph.Conclusion:The anti-DR5 monoclonal antibody could induce EC109 cells apoptosis and cause the complement dependent cytotoxic (CDC) effects powerfully.

Objective To explore the effect of TNF related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL) in apoptosis induced by LPS. Methods After LPS injected mice blocking TRAIL with soluble death receptor 5 (sDRS), detecting ALT, AST and LDH of mice serum at different times, apoptotic effects of LPS to mice hepatocyte were detected by HE and flow eytometry (FCM) with Annexin V-FITC/PI staining. The expres-sion of DR5 in mice hepatocyte was assayed with immunohistochemistry and FCM. Results Apoptotic effect was promoted by up-regulated DR5 expression on hepatocyte. Blocking TRAIL with sDR5 markedly amelio-rated the hepatocyte damage and reduced apoptosis. Conclusion These results establish a critical role for TRAIL in apoptosis during disease process of LPS.

The safety and efficacy of retroperitoneoscopic microwave ablation (MWA) in the treatment of renal hamartoma were evaluated. From July 2007 to July 2009, a total of 16 cases of renal hamartoma were treated with retroperitoneoscopic MWA. Peri- and post-operative findings were observed. Middle-term efficacy was assessed by contrast-enhanced computerized tomography (CT) in follow-up period. All patients received MWA of 1-5 points. The mean operative time was 85 min and the mean blood loss was 65 mL. During a median follow-up of 16 months, no evidence of disease recurrence was observed despite of incomplete ablation in 1 case. Retroperitoneoscopic MWA is a relatively simple procedure with less impact to renal function and less complication. The outcome of middle-term follow-up is satisfactory. Thus, retroperitoneoscopic MWA appears to be a safe and effective technique for renal hamartoma in selected patients.

Objective:To investigate mitochondrial-dependent molecular mechanisms of a novel agonistic anti-human death receptor 5 (DR5) monoclonal antibody(mDRA-6) inducing apoptosis in Jurkat cell.Methods:The dose-dependent and time-dependent cell growth suppression of mDRA-6 in Jurkat cells was determined by MTT assay.The measurement of the mitochondrial transmembrane potential(ΔΨm) of Jurkat cells was detected by flow cytometry with JC-1 single staining.Caspase-8,9 as well as Bid,Bax,Bcl-2 and Cyto c of apoptotic Jurkat cells were analyzed by Western blot after mDRA-6 treatment.Results:The mDRA-6 induced cell growth suppression and cytotoxicity in dose-dependent manner and time-dependent manner.After mDRA-6 treatment at 2.0 μg/ml for15 min,30 min,60 min and 120 min,the change in ΔΨm were 20.14 %,19.34 %,21.11% and 30.90% respectively by JC-1 single staining.Western blot revealed that the level of active fragments of Caspase-8,9 and Bid,Bax,Bcl-2 and Cyto c respectively,and the amount of Cyto c was increased in cytosol concomitant with the related attenuation of Cyto c in mitochondria.Conclusion: Apoptotic pathway of Jurkat cells induced by mDRA-6 is initiated upon DR5 ligatian to mDRA-6 and exogenic Caspase-dependent cell apoptotic cascades is activated,and endogenic mitochondrial-dependent cell apoptosis pathway is activated.mDRA-6 may be a useful agent in investigating human leukemia therapy by using TRAIL/DR5.

Objective To monitor the levels of NO and IL-18 in neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), to explore the relation of NO, IL-18 and HIE. Methods HIE infants admitted in our hospital from January to Novermber of 2007 were taken as observation group and normal neonates were chosen as control group. In each group,the concentrations of NO and IL-18 were tested on 1 day,3 days,7 days and 14 days. Results On the first day after birth,the levels of serum NO and IL-18 in control group were (6.40±4.24) μmol/L and (2.84± 2.53)ng/L,in mild HIE group were (21.55±7.23) μmoL/L and (6.79±1.96) ng/L,in moderate HIE group were (33.38±2.81) μmol/L and (14.07±2.91) ng/L,in severe HIE group were (66.39±18.03) μmoL/L and (26.85±9.82) ng/L. The levels of serum NO and IL-18, in HIE groups were higher than those in control group (P<0.01), were much higher in patients with moderate and severe HIE than those with mild HIE (P<0.01). On 14 days,the levels of serum No and IL-18 were not different in moderate HIE groups and those in the control group (P>0.05), butwere higher in the severe HIE groups than those in the control group [NO and IL-8 level: (5.38± 4.79) μmol/L and (2.39±1.41) ng/L in control group and (24.89±9.43) μmol./L and (13.43±3.23) ng/L in severe HIE group(P<0.01)]. Conclusion NO and IL-18 are involved in the whole course of HIE, which are correlated with the severity of condition. They may be acted as indicators in monitoring pationts' conditon.

Objective To investigate the effect of subanesthetic dose of esketamine on remifentanil-in-duced hyperalgesia after cesarean section under general anesthesia,and its effect on serum homocysteine(Hcy)level and postpartum depression.Methods A total of fifty patients undergoing cesarean section under general anesthesia were randomly divided into the esketamine group and the control group(25 cases in each group).The two groups were given esketamine 0.2 mg/kg and the same amount of normal saline by slow in-jection 10 min after fetal delivery.Then,the extubation time,visual analogue scale(VAS)score within two hours after operation,and consumption of morphine while in the post-anaesthesia care unit(PACU)were compared between the two groups.The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale(EPDS)scores were compared at one day before surgery,one day,four days,and one month after surgery.Serum Hcy levels were measured at one day before surgery,one day and four days after surgery.Results There was no significant difference in extubation time between the two groups(P>0.05).Compared with the control group,it took a longer time for patients in the esketamine group to have a VAS score≥4 for the first time,but the time from morphine injection to a VAS score<4 was shortened(P<0.05).The amount of morphine used in the esketamine group was lower than that in the control group in PACU(P<0.05).Compared with the control group,the VAS scores of the esketamine group decreased at 15 min,30 min,45 min,one hour,and 90 min after surgery(P<0.05),while there was no statistical significance difference in VAS scores at two hours after surgery(P<0.05).EPDS scores in the esketamine group were lower than those in the control group at one day and four days after surgery(P>0.05),but there was no statistically significant between the two groups at one month after surgery(P>0.05).Serum Hcy level in the esketamine group was lower than that in the control group at one day and four days after surgery(P<0.05).Conclusion The subanesthetic dose of esketamine during caesarean section under general anesthesia can effectively relieve remifentanil-induced postoperative hy-peralgesia and prevent the occurrence of postpartum depression.
