To assay the quantity of the brucine ingredient in gastric content and hepatic tissues from the patient died of Semen Strychni hainanensi accumulative posioning.With standard brucine and the crude powder of the Semen Strychni hainanensi as control,the brucine ingredients in the above tissues were quantitatively scanned by the capillary elecrophoretic apparatus within the wave length ranging 190～600nm.The contents of the brucine ingredients in the gastric,hepatic tissues and the crude powder of the Semen Strychni sainanensi were 5 83mg/100ml,4 92mg/100g,and 3 07%(w/w)respectively.The high level of the brucine ingredients in the gastric content and the hepatic tissue is the cause of death.

Objective To evaluate pit pattern analysis for detection of early colorectal carcinoma and precancerous lesions. Methods A total of 162 lesions in 144 patients were examined with magnifying colonoscopy after staining, and their pit patter was analyzed with morphology and pathologic diagnosis. Results With confirmation of pathology, there were 34 non-neoplastic lesions and 128 neoplastic ones, in which 12 were carcinomas. The pit patterns in most non-neoplastic lesions (76. 5%, 26/34) were type Ⅰ or Ⅱ , and those in most neoplastic lesions (96. 1% , 123/128) was type Ⅲ, Ⅳ or Ⅴ. Pit patterns of cancerous lesions were mainly type Ⅴ (75.0%, 9/12), and those of 3 cases of advanced cancers were all type Ⅴ N. Conclusion Pit pattern classification is a very important tool to differentiate between neoplastic, nonneoplastic lesions and early cancer, which helps to decide later therapeutic intervention.

Objective To investigate the influence of high body mass index (BMI) on in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) pregnancy outcome in the patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) .Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted using existing data on 224 PCOS patients with IVF-ET by the standard long protocol in this hospital from Jan 2009 to Dec 2011 .All patients were divided into 2 groups according to BMI ,the high BMI group(BMI≥24 .0 ,64 cases) and the normal BMI group(18 .5≤BMI<24 .0 ,160 cases) .The differences of pregnaney outcomes between the high BMI and normal BMI PCOS pa-tients were compared .Results 1 .Basic testosterone(T) in the high BMI group was higher than that in the normal BMI group(P<0 .05) .2 .There were no statistical difference in the number of retrived oocytes ,dose of Gn ,Gn duration ,fertilization rate between the two groups(P>0 .05);the high BMI group demonstrated the higher endometrial thickness and lower good quality embryo rate than the normal BMI group(P<0 .05) .3 .There were no statistical difference in the clinical pregnancy rate and the abortion rate be-tween the two groups(P>0 .05) ,the high BMI group had the higher risk of developing gestational diabetes(GDM)than the normal BMI group(P<0 .05) .Conclusion PCOS patient with high BMI is liable to develop hyperandrogenism and increases the occurrence rate of pregnancy complication gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM ) ,but without affecting the clinical pregnancy rate .

Objective To investigate application of femoston combined with Kuntai capsule in poor ovarian responders (PORs) receiving vitro fertilization. Methods 120 women with poor ovarian response after receiving IVF were s randomly elected. Pre-treatment with femoston plus Kuntai capsule was used for three menstrual cycles before the next cycle of assisted reproductive treatment. FSH, LH, E2, AMH, number of antral follicles, PSV, days of Gn, ampoules of Gn, cycle cancellation rate, E2 value of the day of HCG, follicle of less than 16mm, number of oocytes, fertilization rate, and number of good quality embryos were compared before and after treatment used. Results After pre-treatment, levels of FSH and LH were decreased, AMH, PSV were increased, E2 value of the day of HCG, number of antral follicles, follicle of less than 16 mm, oocytes, fertilization rate, and good quality embryos were increased; cycle cancellation rate was decreased, with significant differences (P< 0.05). Conclusions Femoston combined with kuntai capsule can effectively increase the functional reserve of the ovarian in poor ovarian responders, and can improve the outcome of IVF.

Aim To investigate the change in neuropeptide Y(NPY) Y1 receptor level in infarcted myocardium tissues of (MI) rats. 　Method MI was induced by ligating the left descending anterior coronary artery (LAD) in the heart of rats. The techniques of reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were used to identify the exist of NPY Y1 receptor mRNA in myocardial tissues. The technique of semi-quantitative PCR wa s used to observe the change of NPY Y1 receptor mRNA level. 　Results NPY Y1 receptor mRNA distributed in the heart tissues of rat. Compared with sham operated rats ,the NPY Y1 receptor mRNA level both in infarction area and non-infarction area was increased significantly after MI fo r 1d and 3d. The NPY Y1 receptor mRNA level in the heart tissues of sham-op erated rats was also significantly increased compared with that in control rats . 　Conclusion These results suggest that MI may result in increase NPY Y1 receptor level in the heart tissues of rats. Stre ss stimulation such as surgery may also increase the NPY Y1 receptor level in the heart.

AIM: To detect the expression level of telomere regulating factor tankyrase and its clinical significance in the origin and development of gastric adenocarcinoma. METHODS: Quantitative Real-time PCR was used to measure the expression of tankyrase mRNA in cancerous and normal adjacent tissues from 16 patients with gastric adenocarcinoma. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect tankyrase protein expressions in 37 gastric adenocarcinoma samples and 13 normal controls. RESULTS: The expression of tankyrase mRNA in gastric adenocarcinoma [median 1.44?10~ -2, range (3.88?10~ -5)-0.4847] was significantly higher than that in normal adjacent mucosa [median 1.0134?10~ -2, range 0-(4.933?10~ -2)] (P

[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To investigate the changes of migration of lung adenocarcinoma cells promoted by IL-8 and the inner and outer mitochondrial membrane dynamic changes during this process.METHODS:Human lung adenocarci-noma cell line A549 was divided into control group and IL-8 group.Cell migration was analyzed by scratch detection and Transwell assay.The secretion of endogenous IL-8 was detected by ELISA.The protein levels of mitochondrial cytochrome C ( Cyt C) and mitochondrial outer membrane protein Tom20 was detected by Western blot.The mRNA expression of mito-chondrial fusion genes Mfn1, Mfn2 and OPA1 and fission genes Fis1, Drp1 and MTP18 was detected by RT-PCR.The morphological changes of mitochondria were observed by MitoTracker Red CMXRos dye staining and confocal microscopy. RESULTS:The migratory rate of A549 cells and endogenous secretion of IL-8 in A549 cells were higher than those in SPC-A-1 cells.The migratory rate of A549 cells was improved by IL-8 in a time-dependent manner.Compared with control group, the Tom20 protein expression was increased ( P<0.05 ) , and the Cyt C protein expression was decreased ( P<0.05).The expression of mitochondrial outer membrane fusion genes Mfn1 and Mfn2 was increased (P<0.05), and the expression of mitochondrial inner membrane fusion gene OPA1 was decreased (P<0.05).The expression of fission genes Drp1 and MTP18 were decreased (P<0.05), while the expression of Fis1 was no change (P>0.05).Under confocal microscope, the punctate aggregates in the mitochondria of the A549 cells treated with IL-8 were observed.CONCLU-SION:The migratory rate of A549 cells is increased by IL-8, which is related to the changes of mitochondrial fusion genes and the fission genes.
