Objective To explore the pathogenesis, pathomorphology, diagnosis and management of cholecystoduodenal fistula(CDF). Methods Clinical data of 11 cases of CDF admitted in our hospital in recent 17 years were analyzed retrospectively. Results All the patients were confirmed and treated by operation.Ten CDF were caused by cholecystitis and cholelithiasis,another one was caused by peptic ulcer.Only one case of CDF was diagnosed before operation. Nine patients were cured, and two patients died of severity infection of abdomen postoperatively. Conclusions Most CDF are caused by cholecystitis and cholelithiasis. X-ray film of abdomen,barium meal examination and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP) are more useful for the diagnosis of CDF. The therapeutic principle of CDF is cholecystectomy,removing calculus, and repairing fistula with or without common bile duct exploration and/or bilioenterostomy.

[ABSTRACT]AIM:Toinvestigatetheeffectofhypoxiacombinedwithexercisetrainingonmitochondrialcon-tent, and the role of mitochondrial biogenesis and mitophagy in this process .METHODS:Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:normoxia control (NC) group, normoxia+training (NT) group, hypoxia+control (HC) group, and hypoxia+training (HT) group.The hypoxic animals were housed in normobaric hypoxic tent (11.3 % oxy-gen) for consecutive 4 weeks.The exercise training animals were exercised on a motor-driven rodent treadmill (5°) at a speed of 15 m/min, 60 min/d, 5 d/week for 4 weeks.Mitochondrial membrane potential was determined using JC-1 fluo-rescent probe .ATP synthesis capacity was determined using a bioluminescence technique .The protein expression of cyto-chrome C oxidase IV (COXIV), voltage-dependent anion channel-1 (VDAC-1), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma cofactor 1 alpha (PGC-1α), mitochondrial transcription factor A (Tfam),Bcl-2/adenovirus E1B 19 kD-interacting protein 3 (Bnip3) and beclin-1 in the muscles was detected by Western blotting .RESULTS:Compared with NC group, hypoxia attenuated mitochondrial membrane potential , ATP synthesis capacity , and the expression of COXIV , VDAC-1, PGC-1αand Tfam.Furthermore, hypoxia increased the expression of Bnip 3 and beclin-1.Compared with HC group , the exercise training elevated mitochondrial membrane potential , ATP synthesis capacity , and the expression of COXIV , VDAC-1, PGC-1α, Tfam, Bnip3 and beclin-1.CONCLUSION:A combination of reduced mitochondrial biogenesis and increased mitophagy seems to be responsible for the decrease in mitochondrial content after hypoxia .Exercise training with hypoxia elevates mitochondrial content and function in hypoxia , which may be mediated by appropriate increase and co-reg-ulation of mitochondrial biogenesis and mitophagy .

ABSTRACT:Objective To a rare case of double primary cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma with gallbladder)to guide clinical application.Methods and Results We reported one case of primary hepatocellular carcinoma and gallbladder.A male patient,54 years old,had main complaints of intermittent right upper quadrant pain for 4 days. The abdominal CT of the local county hospital showed gallstones,gallbladder with liver infiltration.And then he went to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University for further treatment.Laboratory examination revealed:HBsAg(+),HBcAb(+),alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)> 60 500 ng/mL,carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) 5.25 ng/mL.Abdominal CT showed hilar slightly stronger light echo groups:liver cancer or gallbladder cancer? Hepatic artery and portal vein CT imaging (CTA+CTV)examination showed the malignant tumor shadow in the inside of the left hepatic lobe huge,uneven thickening of the gallbladder wall,suspected liver disease with gallbladder infringement or gallbladder disease with liver infringement. With the preoperative preliminary consideration of primary liver cancer with infiltration of the gallbladder,we chose the operation as the resection of segment Ⅳ b and Ⅴ of the liver,cholecystectomy and T tube drainage.Pathological examination postoperative showed the bulky liver carcinoma grade Ⅲ and the poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma of gallbladder.A month later,abdominal CT showed the tumor spread intrahepatic,prompting the poor prognosis.Conclusion The two which are not continuous,which is the standard of double primary cancer,are not suitable for all double primary cancers.This case provides useful experience for future similar diagnosis and treatment of disease,and also helps us with timely and accurate identification of “metastatic”or “primary”,which is the key point for clinicians to give patients an effective treatment.

Objective:To clone the RC-RNase gene and prepare its recombinant prokaryotic construct, and then to express RC-RNase protein using Escherichia coli system. Methods: RC-RNase cDNA was obtained by RT-PCR from liver of Rana catesbeiana, and cloned into pUCm-T plasmid for nucleotide sequencing. Its expression construct was prepared using the 6?His vector pRSET-A, and induced to express by IPTG in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). Western blotting identified the expression product. Results: A 380 bp long cDNA was obtained from liver of Rana catesbeiana, restriction sites and sequence being consistent to those reported for RC-RNase. After introducing the gene into Escherichia coli and through the induction by IPTG, it was observed a new peptide at the expected position (Mr 16000) on SDS-PAGE gel. This product was proved to be the target protein via Western blotting. It existed in a form of inclusion body and its efficiency reached 12.5% of total bacterial proteins. Conclusion: RC-RNase gene was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The protein could be used for characterizing the biological activities and function of RC-RNase.

Background and Objective Keshan disease is clinically characterized as a dilated eardiomyopathy. We analyze the prevalence trend during last decade of hypertension and Keshan-disease in Yangzhuang village which was a Keshan-disease epidemic area.Method The survey including medical history,blood pressure and ECG were carried out every two years during the follow up 13 years.Results During follow up period,the total detection rate(hypertension:13.4 % vs Keshan-disease:10.7 %,?~2=8.555,P=0.002)and the accumulative rate of hypertension were higher than those of Keshan-disease,which was on the contrary to that before 1993,when increasing rate of Keshan-disease was higher than hypertension.Furthermore,the accumulative increasing rate of hypertension was 240.0%,which was higher than the national average level during corresponding period with no significant differences between female and male.Conclusion The detection rate of hypertension in Keshan disease epidemic area was higher than the average rate nation-wide.Whether the hypertension prevalence was re- lated to Keshan-disease needs further investigation.

Objective To explore the safety and effectiveness of diagnostic ultrasound associated with microbubbles to open the blood brain barrier(BBB).Methods Microbubbles were injected through caudal vein,the rat head was radiated by GE Vivid 7 diagnostic ultrasound immediately.The radiated depth was located in the basal ganglia assisted by magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)scanning.The degree of BBB opening was evaluated by enhanced MRI and Evans blue dyeing.The safety was inspected by observation of cell morphology under hematoxylin eosin(HE)staining.Results After the rat head radiated by diagnostic ultrasound with microbubbles,signal enhancement of the radiated area was observed on post contrast T1-weighted images.Red fluorescence of Evans blue was detected by fluorescence microscope in the same area.Normal cellular morphology and structural integrity were showed by HE staining.Conclusions The BBB of rat could be opened targetedly and noninvasively by diagnostic ultrasound associated with microbubbles.This may provide a new strategy for the drugs and stem cells treatment in the central nervous system diseases.

Background Cellular autophagy is a non-apoptosis death form of tumor tissue.Research determined that arsenie trioxide (As2O3) leads to apoptosis of tumor cells.But whether As2O3 induce autophagy of SO-Rb50 cells or not is unclear.Objective This study was to assess the effects of As2O3 on autophagy of SO-Rb50 cells.Methods As2O3 with the concentration of 0,0.5,1.0,2.0,4.0 μmol/L was used to treat the SO-Rb50 cell line for 48 hours,and the growth and proliferation of SO-Rb50 cells were detected using MTT assay (A570).pGFP-LC3,a marker of autophagy,was constructed to transfer SO-Rb50 cells,and the cells were then divided into RPMI-1640 culture group (untreated group),As2O3 + RPMI-1640 culture group (As2O3 treated group) and rapamycin culture group (positive control group).Autophagy of SO-Rb50 cells was examined by laser confocal microscope and monodansylcadaverine (MDC) influorescence staining,respectively,48 hours following cell culture.Ultrastructural features of autophagy were examined with transmission electron microscope (TEM).The percentage of autophagy positive cells in different concentrations of As2O3 treated groups was calculated with flow cytometer.Results The A570 values of SO-Rb50 cells were 2.194±0.066,1.841 ±0.213,1.035±0.046,0.374±0.042 and 0.167±0.019 in 0,0.5,1.0,2.0,4.0 μmol/L As2O3 treated groups,with a significant difference among these 5 groups(F=547.636,P＜0.05),and those of 0.5,1.0,2.0,4.0 μmol/L As2O3 treated groups were significantly reduced in comparison with untreated group (P =0.000).The positive granular spots for GFP-LC3 chimeric protein were seen to aggregate in autophagic vacuoles in the As2O3 treated group and positive control group,but diffuse cytoplasmic signal for GFP-LC3 was found in the untreated group.Normal ultrastructure of SO-Rb50 cells was exhibited in the untreated group,and many double-membrane-like bound vesicles and autlysosomes were documented in the As2O3 treated group and positive control group under the TEM.A lots of MDC fluorescence granule were found in the As2O3 treated group and positive control group rather than the untreated group.Flow cytometry showed that the percentages of SO-Rb50 cells were 0,15.6％,42.7％,57.9％,79.5％ and 89.0％ in the 0,0.5,1.0,2.0,4.0 μmol/L As2O3 groups and positive control group,respectively,showing a As2O3 concentration-dependent increase.Conclusions As2O3 can induce the autophagy of SO-Rb50 cells and inhibit the proliferation of SO-Rb50 cells.Autophagic response of SO-Rb50 cells appears prior to the nuclear change after exposed to As2O3.The degree of autophagy of SO-Rb50 cells is associated with As2O3 dose.
