NK cell function was tested in 60 patients randomly selected with ad- vanced primary liver cancer(PLC)during interventional treatment.The patients were di- vided into three groups and treated with different regimens.In group 1(n=20),routinally using HAI(5-Fu 1000mg,CDDP 30mg)and HAE(Lipiodel 10～20ml,EAMC 50mg)in group 2,the treatment project is same as in group 1,but after the treatment,total 8g Natrii thiosulfas was administrated intravenously within 48 hours;in group 3,one week after treatment as in group 1,the patients received a-2b IFN injected subcutaneously at a dose of 10?10~6 IU,B.i.w,for more than 2 months.The results showed that:1.NK function in the patients with advanced PLC was 17.45?4.5% ,significantly lower than that in the nor- mal ones(21.39?3.58%);2.After the interventional treatment,the NK function of the patients were obviously decreased in group 1(13.58?3.14%),and in group 2(15.45?2. 69%),but increased in group 3(19.20?3.27%).The results suggested that conventional interventional treatment will affect NK cell function of patients with advanced PLC in some degree,and the effect can be reduced by injecting Natrii Thiosulfas i.v.,and administering IFN.

Objective To evaluate a new animal model of venous stenosis induced by local mechanical injury with the presence of surgical arteriovenous fistula (AVF).Methods Twelve arteriovenous (AV) fistulae were surgically formed between the carotid artery and internal jugular vein in six adult pigs, one on each side of the neck. Direct mechanical injury was made by crush injury with fingers or forceps to the jugular vein at the sites 1-2cm above and below the AV anastomosis. Angiographic follow up was performed at 3 and 6 weeks, and the animals were sacrificed. Fistulae and injured veins were harvested for histopathology. Results At angiography six AV anastomoses were patent without stenosis, five were stenosed and one had occluded. Eleven of twelve venous injury sites with open AV anastomosis and six of ten venous injury sites with AV anastomotic stenoses developed greater than 50% diameter stenosis. Dilation was found in the non injury segment of eight jugular veins. Stenoses were caused by neointimal hyperplasia as seen on histologic examination.Conclusions Neointimal venous stenosis can be induced by creation of a surgical AV fistula and local venous mechanical injury. This model may be used to study methods to reduce or inhibit neointimal hyperplasia, with particular reference to venous stenoses that occur in arteriovenous shunts created for dialysis access.

Objective To evaluate the safety and feasibility of portal CO 2-DSA with fine needle splenic puncture. Methods The splenic tails of seven adult white rabbits were exteriorized by laparotomy, and followed by a 25 gauge fine needle inserting about 1.0 cm into the splenic parenchyma. Portal CO 2-DSA was performed (2.0 ml/s, 10ml) and the images were evaluated. After removal of the needle, the puncture site was observed for bleeding till coagulation occurred. The spleen were taken for gross and histological examination. Results All the CO 2-DSA clearly showed the portal trunk with intrahepatic branches above 3～4 orders, the main splenic vein, and the main mesenteric veins with parts of its branches. CO 2 disappeared from the intrahepatic portal vein over 2～3 minutes. In one animal, the left renal vein and the inferior vena cava were also displayed by CO 2 through communication between splenic vein and renal vein. After removal of the needle, there was small amount of bleeding at the puncture site which ceased spontaneously over 3～5 minutes. In all animals, no extravasation of CO 2 at the puncture site, no subcapsular dissection or intrasplenic hematoma was observed. Microscopically, the splenic capsule appeared intact and there was no evidence of subcapsular hematoma formation.Conclusions Portal CO 2-DSA with fine needle splenic puncture is feasible, safe and efficient. In normal adult rabbit, CO 2 may help to visualize the left renal vein and inferior vena cava through communication between splenic and renal vein.

Objective To evaluate the outcome of dorsal double locking compression plate (LCP) in treatment of stretched unstable distal radial fractures.Methods Fourteen cases of stretched unstable distal radial fractures were treated by reduction and internal fixation using straight or L-shaped anatomic LCP via dorsal approach.Wrist functional exercise was conducted immediately after operation.Follow up was made after operation to assess motion pain,functional score of wrist,and complication incidence at postoperative 12 weeks,24 weeks,and 1 year.Results Follow-up was lasted for 5-24 months.At postoperative 12 weeks,24 weeks and 1 year,mean visual analogue scale (VAS) was (1.88 ±0.26) points,(0.87 ± 0.14) points and (0.37 ± 0.06) points respectively and wrist functional score (Gartland-Werley score) was (6.45 ± 1.72) points,(2.73 ± 0.52) points and (2.10 ± 0.31) points respectively.According to Garfland-Werley score in the latest follow-up,the results were excellent in 10 cases,good in two,and fair in two.Besides,one case was combined with myotenositis of extensor pollicis longus muscle tendon and another case with myotenositis of extensor tendon.Conclusion Dorsal double LCP is one of the effective methods for stretched unstable distal radial fractures that can reconstruct anatomical structure of the wrist efficiently and attain satisfactory functional recovery,with no obvious pain.

Objective To investigate the effect of downregulation of KIAA0101 protein expression on the proliferation and invasion of a cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma cell line SCL-1,and to explore possible molecular mechanisms underlying the effect.Methods SCL-1 cells were classified into three groups: siRNA control group transfected with the control siRNA,KIAA0101 group transfected with KIAA0101 siRNA,and untreated group remaining untreated.After additional culture,Western blot was used to detect the expression of KIAA0101 protein and proteins associated with cell proliferation and invasion,cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) to evaluate cellular proliferative activity,and Boyden chamber assay to estimate invasive ability of cells.Results The relative expression level of KIAA0101 protein was 0.062 ± 0.095 in the KIAA0101 group,significantly lower than that in the untreated group (0.359 ± 0.044,P ＜0.05) and siRNA control group (0.379 ± 0.025,P ＜0.05).A significant decrease was observed in cellular proliferative activity (from 24 to 96 hours) and invasive activity (at 48 hours) in the KIAA0101 group compared with the other two groups (all P ＜0.05).Moreover,compared with the untreated group and siRNA control group,the KIAA0101 group showed a stronger expression of p21 protein (0.570 ± 0.060 vs.0.048 ± 0.018 and 0.055 ± 0.014,P ＜0.01) but a weaker expression of matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2) protein (0.051 ± 0.013 vs.0.205 ± 0.029 and 0.221 ± 0.029,P ＜0.01).Conclusion The inhibition of SCL-1 cell proliferation and invasion induced by the downregulation of KIAA0101 gene expression may be associated with the expression changes of p21 and MMP2.

Objective To evaluate the clinical application of serum CYFRA21-1 detection during the diagnosis of lung cancer. Methods Serum level of CYFRA21-1 in 196 patients with lung cancer and 39 healthy controls were determined by the Elctro-chemiluminescence Immuno-assay ( ECLIA) , respectively. Results Serum level of CYFRA21 -1 ( range from 0. 30 μgg/L to 500.00 μg/L) in patients with lung cancer were significantly higher than those in the healthy control ( range from 0. 27 μg/L to 3. 29 μg/L,Z = -4. 65,P < 0.01). ROC analysis of diagnosis efficiency showed that the area under curve ( AUC) was 0. 735 (P < 0. 001 ). The confidence interval of 95% was from 0. 663 to 0. 807. Positive detection rate of CYFRA21-1 was 48. 8% (39/80) in squamous,31.7% (20/63) in adenocarcinoma and 22. 6% (12/53) in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) respectively, as well as total positive rate was 36. 2% (71/196). Stepwise regression analysis showed that serum level of CYFRA21-1 had a linear correlation with the squamous and the metastasis to liver or bone (r =0. 505 ,P <0. 05). Conclusions Serum level of CYFRA21-1 increases the diagnostic sensitivity, which is helpful for determining histological types, monitoring the metastasis of liver and bone, and evaluating the treatment response in patients with lung cancer.

Objective To study the effect of down-regulation of PTTG on the proliferation and migration of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma cell line SCL-1 and its related mechanism. Methods SCL-1 cells were transfected with control siRNA or PTTG-targeting siRNA (PTTG-siRNA), or remained untransfected. After additional culture, the proliferation of SCL-1 cells as observed with cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8), and cell migration with Boyden chamber. Real-time PCR and Western blot were performed to detect the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2), MMP-9 and PTTG. Results The proliferation of SCL-1 cells transfected with PTTG-siRNA was markedly deccelarated in comparision with that of untransfected cells and those transfected with control siRNA (both P< 0.05). Real-time PCR and Western blot disclosed a significant decrease in the mRNA and protein expression of MMP-2, MMP-9 and PTTG in PTTG-siRNA-transfected SCL-1 cells compared with the other two groups of cells. As real-time PCR showed, the expressions of MMP-2, MMP-9 and PTTG in PTTG-siRNA-transfected SCL-1 cells were 0.8%, 23.2% and 21.3% of those in untransfected cells, respectively. Further more, the number of SCL-1 cells migrating through microporous membrane in the Boyden chamber was significantly smaller in PTTG-siRNA-transfected group than in untransfected group and control siRNA-trans-fected group (51.38 ± 4.71 vs 131.33 ± 6.12 and 127.72 ± 5.20, both P< 0.05). Conclusion The down-regulation of PTTG may deccelarate the proliferation and migration of SCL-1 cells and inhibit the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in SCL-1 cells.
