Objective To investigate the clinicopathologieal features of serous microcystic adenoma of the pancreas. Methods Clinicopathological analysis, histochemieal and immunohistochemical studies were performed in 12 cases of serous microcystic adenoma of the pancreas with follow-up. Results The patients included 9 females and 3 males who ranged in age from 35 to 70 (mean=51.5). Seven patients were discov-ered by check-up incidentally and 5 for the symptoms as upper abdominal uncomfortable or pain. Tumors varied in size from 2.0 cm to 13 cm in maximal diameter(mean=6.0 cm), and all had a multicystic appear-ance. Histologically, all tumors were composed of numerous microcysts lined by a single layer of cuboidal or flattened cells. The tumor cells contained clear cytoplasm with glycogen and centrally located round nuclei mostly uniform without any atypia. Mitoses were very rare or absent. Histochemically, the tumor cells were positive for PAS and negative for AB-PAS. Immunohistochemieally, the tumor cells revealed diffuse positivi-ty of cytokeratins and epithelial membrane antigen, whereas CEA, CgA, Syn, CD34, Vimentin, P53 and S-100 protein were negative. Follow-up in 10 patients (range from 12 to 71 months) showed no recurrence of serous cystadenomas. Conclusion Serous microcystic adenoma of the pancreas is an extremely rare tumor. It is often non-symptomatic. Its diagnosis is mainly dependent on its unique morphological immunohistochemical features. It's biology behavior is necessary to study.

Objective: To study the antioxidant activity of Clematis chinensis Osbeck polysaccharide(CCP).Methods:① To assay the scavenging activity of CCP on hydroxyl radical and superoxide anion in vitro.② To analyze the effect of CCP on red blood cell autoxidation hemolysis induced by H2O2 by colorimetry.③ To study the effect of CCP on acute hepatic injury of the mice induced by carbon tetrachloride.Results: CCP could eliminate the hydroxyl free radical and the superoxide anion free radical,reduce red blood cell autoxidation hemolysis induced by H2O2,raise the activities of SOD and GSH-Px in hepatic injury mice's serum and liver apparently,reduce the content of MDA and liver index notably.Conclusion: CCP has the significantly action of anti oxidation activity in vitro and in vivo which relates to removing oxygen free radical.

AIM:To construct nine novel L-asparaginase mutants and study their enzyme-activity.METHODS:The mutants were constructed using overlap extension PCR according to the principle of alanine-scanning mutagenesis. The enzyme-activity was detected by Nessler's method. RESULTS:The DNA sequencing showed that the mutagenesis was consistent with the theoretical prediction. The enzyme-activity assay demonstrated that each mutant possessed enzyme activity equal to the original enzyme. CONCLUSION:Through gene modification,epitop of L-asparaginase was changed without activity loss.These results provide foundation for further study of the structure-function relationship of L-asparaginase.

Objective To investigate changes in plasma levels of D-dimer in patients with prostate hyperplasia(BPH)complicat-ed with acute urinary retention(AUR),and to explore its clinical significance.Methods 102 cases of patients with prostate hyper-plasia complicated with acute urinary retention,treated in this hospital from July 2013 to December 2014,were selected and divided into the simple BPH group(56 cases)and BPH complicated with AUR(BPH+AUR)group.The plasma levels of D-dimer of these patients were detected and comparatively analysed.Results Compared with the simple BPH group,the plasma levels of D-dimer of patients in the BPH+AUR group was increased,had statistically significant difference.(P <0.01).Conclusion The plasma levels of D-dimer in patients with BPH complicated with AUR increase significantly,which indicates that patients are with secondary in-creased fibrinolytic activity.Measures should be taken to relieve urinary retention as soon as possible,so as to protect the vascular endothelial function of patients and reduce the incidence of complications.

Objective To study the pathological,ultrastructural and immunohistochemical features of kidney oncocytoma (RO). Methods The clinical and histological features of 13 patients (5 men and 8 women;mean age,58 years,age 44 -78 years) with RO were observed.Immunohistochemical staining was performed on paraffin-embedded tissues with a panel of antibodies including vimentin,EMA,ckpan,CK7,CK18,E-cadherin,CD10,RCC,CD117,34βE12,HMB45,s-100 and Ki-67.Of the 13 cases,10were found incidentally during a health examination while the other three cases presented with lumbago and discomfort of the lumber.Four cases were analyzed by electron microscopy.Eleven were treated with radical nephrectomy and 2 with partial nephrectomy. Results Histologically,the tumor cells were mainly arranged in closely packed nests,aciniform or tubule with an occasional microcystic pattern in loose edematous hypocellular fibrous stroma.Tumor cells had moderate to abundant granular eosinophilic cytoplasm with a small,round and uniform nucleus containing finely and evenly dispersed chromati.However,focal nuclear atypia were observed with no mitotic activity.Immunohistochemically,all cases were diffusely positive for CK18 and showed variable immunoreactivity for E-cadherin,CD117,CD10 and CK7.Twelve cases were positive for EMA. All cases were negative for vimentin,34βE12,HMB45 and s-100.The proliferative index (Ki-67) was very low in all cases,with less than 1％ of the nuclei labeled.Electronic microscopy showed the cytoplasm had abundant mitochondria with lamellar cristae.Follow-up on 10 patients ( range from 2 to 67months) showed no recurrence or metastasis. Conclusions Tumor cells arranged in nests with loose hypocellu]ar and edematous stroma is the most important histological feature of RO.The immunohistochemical features could be helpful for both diagnosis and differential diagnosis.

Objective To explore clinical value of the color Doppler ultrasonic(CDU)and TNM staging of renal cell carcinoma.Methods 265 cases of renal cell carcinoma(RCC)confirmed by surgical pathology were retro-spectively analyzed.According to the WHO 2004 pathological types of classification standards and the American Joint Committee on Cancer(AJCC)cancer staging manual/6th TNMstaging criteria.The analyzed application of a CDFI to TNMstaging of renal cell carcinoma,and surgical pathology results werecompared.Results 265 cases of RCC and right kidney in 136 cases,129 cases of left kidney;Diameter of 1.5 -12.8cm;Pathological diagnosis of renal clear cell carcinoma in 226 cases(85.28%),28 cases of papillary renal cell carcinoma(10.57%),renal too color cell car-cinoma in 5 cases(1.89%),4 cases of multilocular cystic renal cell carcinoma(1.51%),Bellini duct carcinoma in 2 cases(0.75%).Diagnosis results of CDU and pathological in 250 cases(94.34%),CDU misdiagnosis leakage 15 cases(5.66%).Within the kidney showed low echo or high echo,and mixed echo lumps,and invasive growth to the surrounding tissues or organs sign for it.CDU showed the various blood flow signals were given priority to with renal clear cell carcinoma;CDU and surgical pathology TNMstaging coincidence rate was 90.40%(226 /250),inclu-ding T1 N0 -1 M0 ,T2 N0 -1 M0 ,T3 N0 -2 M0 -1 and T4 N0 -2 M0 -1 of coincidence rate were 92.12%(152 /165),85.71%(36 /42),82.14%(23 /28)and 100.00%(15 /15).Conclusion CDU can be used as the preferred method of diag-nosis and evaluation of renal cell carcinoma,which can can provide valuable information for TNMstaging.

Objective To study the distribution of surfactant protein A2 (SP-A2) haplotype and its association with preterm respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) susceptibility in a local Chinese cohort.Methods Using population base and case-control study cohorts,genotyping for four single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) was performed,rs1059046,rs17886395,rs1965707,rs1965708,in 80 term infants,50 preterm infants with RDS (RDS group) and 50 preterm infants without RDS(control group) by using TaqMan (R) real-time polymerase chain reaction.Infants in RDS group and control group were matched according to gender and gestational age.Frequency of each haplotype was compared between preterm infants with RDS and without RDS,term infants and preterm infants without RDS.Results Most common haplotypes in term infants were 1A0,1A5,1A1.In each preterm infants groups with RDS and without RDS,1A0,1 A5,1 A1 were also the most common haplotypes.Among these three common haplotypes,frequency of 1A0 was lower in preterm infants,including RDS group and control group,than that in term infants.No significant difference was found between preterm groups with RDS and without RDS (P ＞ 0.05),neither in preterm infants with gestational age ≥32 or ＜ 32 weeks.Haplotype 1A0 frequency(0.542) in term infants was significantly higher than that in preterm infants ＜ 32 weeks without RDS (0.329) (x2 =6.06,P =0.01).Conclusions SP-A2 haplotype distribution in a local Chinese population shows ethnic characteristics to some extent.Only SP-A2 does not contribute to the susceptibility for preterm RDS.

Objective To explore the correlation between illness conception, health seeking behavior and mental health status in recruits. Methods 865 recruits were evaluated by Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90), Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Self-Rating Scale of Illness Conception and Health Seeking Behavior (SSICHSB) . Results (1) Except interpersonal sensitivity, depression and hostility, there were significantly differences in other factors of SCL-90 between recruit and the national norm. Somatization and anxiety scres were significantly higher ghan the military norm. The scores of SAS and SDS were significantly higher for recruits compared to national norm. (2) There was negative correlation between the total score, each factor score of SCL-90, the total score of SDS, the total score of SAS and SSICHSB; (3) Stepwise lines regression found three factors including anxiety, the total score of SAS and obsessiveness statistically significant, when the dependent variable was the total score of SSICHSB. Conclusion There are obvious somatization,anxiety and depression in recruits. The more obvious the symptoms are, the more passive the illness conception and health seeking behavior are.
