BACKGROUND: Hydrogen sulfide signaling has been proved to promote distraction osteogenesis; however,the underlying mechanism remains unclear.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relationship between hydrogen sulfide and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α)during the osteogenesis of rat bone marrow mesenchymal cells under tensile stress.METHODS: 2000 μ strain was loaded on the in vitro cultured rat bone marrow mesenchymal cells by a four-point bending apparatus, and hydrogen sulfide donor or HIF-1α inhibitor was adopted in the tensile unit. Subsequently, the levels of osteogenic markers were detected.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Exogenous hydrogen sulfide signaling could promote the osteogenesis of rat bone marrow mesenchymal cells under tensile stress. However, this promotion was obviously eliminated when the endogenous HIF-1α expression was inhibited.These results show that hydrogen sulfide signaling system promotes the osteogenesis of rat bone marrow mesenchymal cells under tensile stress probably through HIF-1α.

Objective To investigate the relationships between the expressions of estrogen receptor(ER),progesterone receptor(PR),carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA),c-erbB-2,and clinicopathologic parameters of the breast cancer and to evaluate their value in predicting the prognosis of breast cancer.Methods The databank of clinical data and expressions of ER,PR,CEA and c-erbB-2 proteins in 791 cases of breast cancer were established and the results were analyzed by using chi-square test,Kaplan-Meier(SPSS10.0).Results The positive expression rates of ER,PR,CEA and c-erbB-2 were 64.6%,66.5%,45.5% and 66.2% in the 791 breast cancers,respectively.The positive rate of ER expression in the infiltrating lobular carcinomas was significantly higher than that of the infitrating ductal carcinomas of breast(P

Objective To analyze the protein expression profile of human glomerular mesangial cells (HMCs) under high glucose and to characterize molecular functions and biological processes. Methods HMCs were divided into high glucose cultured group (30 mmol/L) and normal glucose cultured group (5 mmol/L). The total proteins were extracted after culture for 48 hours. The total proteins of the two groups were separated using two-dimensional fluorescence difference in gel electrophoresis (2-D DIGE) and analyzed using DeCyder 2-D difference analysis software. The differentially expressed proteins were further identified using in-gel digestion with trypsin, of which peptide extracts were prepared for MALDI-TOF-MS analysis. Protein identifications were searched in the NCBI protein database using the Mascot search engine. Results One hundred and forty-seven protein spots whose expression levels were significantly increased or decreased more than 1.5 folds under high glucose were identified. Ninety-six differentially expression protein spots were analyzed by peptide mass fingerprinting and 37 kinds of proteins were identified. The protein spots of phosphatidylethanolamine binding protein 1 (PEBP-1), granulysin,ATP synthase H + transporting mitochondrial FO complex subunit F2 were observed only in high glucose group. The expression of 24 proteins was up-regulated by high glucose, including eosinophil cationic protein, RGS membrane-interacting proteins 16 (MIR16), peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase, disks large homolog DLG2, breast cancer 2, early onset (BRCA2), Catechol-O-methyltransferase etc. The expression of 5 proteins was down-regulated by high glucose, including O-GlcNAc transferase-interacting protein 106 000 isoform 1, proteasome beta 6 subunit precursor,NEFA-interacting nuclear protein NIP30 etc. Conclusions Expression of 147 proteins in HMCs alters under high glucose. These proteins are involved in the regulation of cytoskeleton, glucose metabolism, cell division, gene transcription, signal transduction, phosphorylation, cell proliferation,apoptosis etc. In-depth analysis of these differentially expressed proteins' function and crosstalk is expected to provide an important experimental basis for clarifying the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy.

BACKGROUND:Long course of treatment and complications limit the extensive application of distraction osteogenesis, which cannot meet the clinical requirements. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of general administration of eucommia alcohol extract on new bone regeneration based on the rabbit model of mandibular distraction osteogenesis. METHODS:Twenty-four New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. Unilateral mandibular distraction osteogenesis model was established by 1 mm/12 h distraction protocol. During the distraction period, the rabbits in the experimental group were intragastricaly administered with eucommia alcohol extract and the control animals received the same amount of physiological saline, respectively. Six weeks later, the animals were sacrificed for osteogenic testing. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: New bone formation was observed in the distracted gap in both groups. However, the amount, mineralization and biomechanical strength of new regenerated bone in the experimental group were obviously greater than those in the control group by histological observation, dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, micro-CT and biomechanical test. General administration of eucommia alcohol extract can markedly promote distraction osteogensis in rabbit mandibular osteodistraction.

Objective To evaluate the impact of hydrogen sulfide signal system during the process of rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal cells osteogenesis under tensile stress. Methods After the H2S signal system of cell rooms regulated by tool drugs (Group A with propargylglycine;Goup B with PBS;Group C with GYY3147), 4 000 μ strain tensile stress were applied on rat BMMCs by four-point bending apparatus for 60 minutes. Four hours later, the H2S signal system and cystathionine-γ-lyase were detected. Meanwhile, the change of the alkaline phosphate, osteocalcin, procollagen typeⅠN-terminal propeptide, and runt-related transcription factor 2 mRNA level were also examined to evaluate the osteogenic ability. Results With the increase of H2S expression, the osteogenic capacity gradually increased, while the osteogenic capacity was compromised after the endogenous cystathionine-γ-lyase was inhibited. Conclusion The H2S signal system plays an important role during BMMCs osteogensis under tensile stress. The up-regulation expression of H2S may promote osteogenesis during distraction osteogenesis.

According to the Organ Injury Scale Grading System of the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST-OIS),grade Ⅴ liver trauma is always complicated with retrohepatic inferior vena cava injury and less bile duct injury,and it is extremely severe and difficult to be treated.Timely and fast judgment,emergent exploration and effective repair of the injured bile duct are the key points for the treatment of bile duct injury.One patient with grade Ⅴ liver trauma combined with hilar bile duct transection injury was admitted to the Fuzhou General Hospital of Nanjing Military Command on August 30,2013.The rupture of left and right liver junction was detected by preoperative multidisciplinary consultation and emergency open surgery at admission hour 4.There was left and right hepatic duct bifurcation rupture at the first hepatic hilum.Non-functional liver tissues were excised.Breakage left and middle hepatic vein were sutured by polymer suture line.Liver traumatic bleeding and bile duct were sutured and ligatured individually.Left and right hepatic duct laceration was sutured by 6-0 PDS suture line.A hole in the stomach wall was opened fist,and then most part of the gastric contents was removed and the gastric wall was reparied by stapler.Patient received the postoperative symptomatic treatment with gradual recovery,and was discharged from hospital at admission day 26.The patient was readmitted to the hospital at 31 days of discharge due to outflow of purulent fluid from abdominal cavity drainage tube,and was treated by ceftriaxone sodium and tazobactam sodium according to the results of drug sensitive test and continuous peritoneal lavage.The abdominal cavity drainage tube and left and right hepatic duct drainage tube were removed at postoperative day 83.The patient was discharged from hospital at readmission day 28,and was followed up till December 2014 with good recovery and without complication.

Hepatectomy is the treatment of choice for huge ( ＞ 10 cm) hepatocellular carcinoma.However,the resection is more difficult and risky due to a huge space occupied by the tumor and vascular invasion.Precise hepatectomy is a new concept of liver surgery in the 21st century.The goal of which is the least invasive,most parenchymal preserving and optimal recovery.A male patient with a huge hepatocellular carcinoma (diameter =22.5 cm) received precise hepatectomy in the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery of Fuzhou General Hospital of Nanjing Military Area.By using the digital medical technology and procedure of liver surgery planning system,the tumor and the whole structure of the liver were three dimensionally reconstructed,and the planning of resection was made.During surgery,the right liver artery and the right.porta hepatis were ligated and the right hemihepatic vessels were occluded.We accomplished right hepatectomy by accurate resection according the precisely planned preoperation,with less bleeding or no bleeding surgical field and rapid recovery.

Objective To investigate the relationship between clinical and pathological features in order to observe estrogen and progestin receptor(ER and PR) expressions in bilateral primary breast cancer(BPBC). Methods ER and PR expressions in 29 cases of BPBC from 1990 to 2003 and the clinical and pathological features were analyzed retrospectively. Results ER and PR positive expressions were 53 2% and 41 2% in unilateral breast cancer, but 69% and 51% in first primary cancer of BPBC, and 65% and 41 3% in second primary cancer of BPBC, respectively. Invasive lobular carcinoma(ILC) was 11 6% in unilateral breast cancer and 34 4% in first cancer of BPBC and 41.3% in second primary cancer of BPBC. Status of lymph nodes in unilateral breast cancer was similar to that in BPBC. Conclusion There is higher ER expression in BPBC than that in unilateral breast cancer. ILC is significantly related to the carcinogenesis of BPBC. The status of lymph nodes is not related to BPBC.
