BACKGROUND:Nano-hydroxyapatite/polyamide 66 is a new nanobionic composite material and has good biocompatibility and bone conduction, but after implantation, whether the composite material can bind to vertebral bone interface and whether it is safe in clinical use stil need further studies. OBJECTIVE: To observe the ability of nano-hydroxyapatite/polyamide composite binding to the interface of artificial humeral head. METHODS: The rabbits were randomly divided into two groups: composite group was implanted with nano-hydroxyapatite/polyamide composites; control group implanted with autologous bone. After the replacement, rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels were subjected to primary culture, and then the cels were co-cultured with the composite material. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 24 hours after culture, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels grew wel on the composite materials. The cel adhesion rate was significantly higher in the composite group than the control group at 1 and 4 hours after culture (P < 0.05). After co-culture 4.5, 5.5, 6.5 hours, the absorbance value of cels in the composite group was higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05). At 24 weeks after replacement, changing ranges in the proportions of bone tissue and fibrous layers on the implant surface as wel as coverage rate in the composite group were the highest (P < 0.05). These findings indicate that the nano-hydroxyapatite/ polyamide composite implant has a certain binding capacity, which can make a good interface osseointegration.

Objective To investigate the effects of laporoscopic resection applied to colorectal cancer patients on metabolism. Methods According to patients' choice of operation, either laparoscopic-assisted (n = 22, experimental group) or open(n = 27, control group) resection of colorectal cancer was performed. The levels of electrolyte were assayed preoperatively, postoperatively and on the time of 24 hours after opera-tion. Rseults There was no significant difference in the level of electrolyte before operation between the two groups (P > 0. 05). Compared with the preoperative period, the level of serum potassium in the both groups were significantly increased after operation(P < 0. 05), and 24 hours later, the levels of electrolyte was not significantly different in both the two groups (P > 0. 05). During the postoperative period, the level of serum potassium in the experimental group was lower than the control group(P <0. 05), while the level of HCO_3~- was higher than the control group(P <0. 05), and there were no significant differences in the level of serum sodium, chloride and calcium between the two groups(P > 0. 05). Conclusions Laparoscopic-assisted re-section of colorectal cancer gives lower levels of stress responses compared to open surgery. However, it shows higher effect on the level of HCO_3~- , and must be paid more attention during operative and postopera-tive period.

Objective:To investigate the changes and clinical significances of serum levels of granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF),interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) levels in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods:126 cases of patients with RA in our hospital from June 2013 to December 2016 were selected as RA group and divided into two subgroups as active RA group (69 cases) and remission RA group (57 cases) according to the severity of the disease.55 healthy cases who receive physical check in our hospital at same time were selected as the control group.The serum GM-CSF,IL-6 TNF-α levels were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and compared between different groups,the correlation of serum GM-CSF,IL-6 TNF-α levels with DAS28 were analyzed.Results:The serum GM-CSF,IL-6 TNF-α levels of RA group were significantly higher than those of the remission RA group and control group (P＜0.01),and the serum GM-CSF,IL-6 TNF-α levels of remission RA group were also significantly higher than those of the control group (P＜0.01).Positive correlation between serum GM-CSF,IL-6 and TNF-α levels were found(P＜.0.01).The level of DAS28 was significantly correlated with the levels of serum GM-CSF,IL-6 and TNF-α (r=0.473,0.584,0.675,all P＜0.01).Conclusion:The levels of serum GM-CSF,IL-6 and TNF-α were up-regulated in patients with RA and positively correlated with the activity of RA,which might be of important clinical significance in the early diagnosis,disease evaluation and prognosis of RA.

Smad3 is a major transporter in the transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) signaling pathway.It is in charge of the transfer of TGF-β signal from the surface of the cell membrane into the nucleus.The TGF-β signal can be bound to the target gene in the nucleus and regulate its expression.Abnormalities in Smad3 expression level and functional status will lead to abnormal signal transduction,involving cell growth,proliferation,development,differentiation,migration,apoptosis and other basic life activities.This review focused on the differential expression of Smad3 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)and the adjacent tissue.The character of Smad3 in HCC is outlined in three parts:Smad3 upstream signaling source,Smad3 self-assembly maturation and Smad3 downstream effects,which may provide a summary and reference for the follow-up study on Smad3.

BACKGROUND:At present, spleen tyrosine kinase is the new target of studying and treating rheumatoid arthritis. OBJECTIVE:To study the influence of smal molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor HL131078 on the inflammatory cel infiltration and cartilage destruction of the knee joint of mice with col agen-induced arthritis. METHODS:Forty DBA/1 mice were randomly and evenly divided into blank, model, positive and experimental groups. Col agen type II (CII) solution and Freund’s complete adjuvant (including mycobacterium tuberculosis) were injected into the mice of the latter three groups through the tail to establish mouse models of col agen-induced arthritis. At 2 weeks after the the first immunization with CII, the mice in the positive group were intragastrical y given R406 (10 mg/kg), once a day, for 28 consecutive days. The mice in the experimental group were intragastrical y given HL131078 (10 mg/kg), once per day, for 28 consecutive days. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the model group, the mean arthritis indexes of mice in the experimental and positive groups started to decline at 29 and 26 days. In the experimental group, the cartilage destruction of mouse knee joint was obviously reduced and the inflammatory cel infiltration in the knee joints was obviously reduced, which was close to that in the positive group. The results demonstrate that the smal molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor HL131078 can effectively reduce inflammatory cel infiltration and cartilage destruction in the knee joints of mice with col agen-induced arthritis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of Twist protein in adenocarcinoma of prostate and clinicopathological features and explore its roles in the carcinogenesis and progression of adenocarcinoma of prostate and its relationship with prognosis.MethodsThe expression of Twist was detected in 70 cases with adenocarcinoma of prostate and 30 cases with side cancer tissue by immunohistochemistry (EnlivionTM).ResultsThe expression of Twist protein in adenocarcinoma of prostate was higher than side cancer tissue.The expression of twist was related to Gleason grade,clinical stage and bony metastasis (P＜0.05),but it was not related to the age (P＞0.05).The survival rate of Twist protein positive patients was significant lower than negative patients(x2=9.52,P＜0.01).ConclusionsTwist might be an important biological marker for malignant transformation and invasion and metastasis adenocarcinoma of prostate,and the up-regulation of the expression of Twist reflects more invasion and poor prognosis.
