Objective To investigate the effects of nuclear factor-kappaB(NF-κB)/p65 signaling transduction on the apoptosis and expressions of apoptosis-related genes Bax in nude mouse lung tumour cell xenografts. Methods The nude mice Lewis lung carcinoma cell xenograft model was established,and then the mice were intraperitoneally injected with NF-κB/p65 small interfering RNA(siRNA). The apoptosis of xenografted tumor cells in nude mice was detected by TUNEL assay. Expressions of Bax mRNA and protein were detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting. Results The result of TUNEL assay demonstrated that p65 siRNA evidently evoked cell apoptosis. Compared to the PBS treatment group or the normal control mice,both mRNA and protein expression levels of Bax in tumor xenografts were significantly up-regulated. There were significant differences among three groups(P<0.05). Conclusion NF-κB/p65 subunit may play an essential role in cell apoptosis of Lewis lung tumor.

Objective To investigate the changes in trafficking of GluRl-containing AMPA (GluR1-AMPA) receptor and GluR2-AMPA receptor from cytoplasm to cell membrane in the spinal cord dorsal horn in a rat model of incisional pain.Methods Thirty-two adult male SD rats aged 6-8 weeks weighing 280-300 g were randomly divided into 2 groups:control group (group C,n =8) and incisional pain group (group Ⅰ,n =24).An 1 cm long incision was made in the plautar surface of right hindpaw according to Brennan et al.in group Ⅰ.Cumulative pain score (CPS) and paw-withdrawal threshold to yon Frey stimuli (PWT) were measured at 3 h and day 1 and 3 afar incision ( T1,2,3 ).The animals were sacrificed after pain behavior assessment.Their lumbar segments of the spinal cord (L3-6) were removed.The expression of GluR1 and GluR2 in cell membrane and cytoplasm in spinal cord dorsal horn was determined by Western blot analysis.The co-expression of Stargazing with GluR1 and GluR2 in the spinal cord dorsal horn was examined by co-immuno-precipitation.Results The CPS was increased and PWT decreased; the GluR1 expression in cytoplasm was decreased while the expression of GluR1 in cell membrane and the co-expression of Stargazing with GluR1 were up-regulated in group Ⅰ as compared with group C.There was no significant change in the expression of GluR2 in cytoplasm and cell membrane and the co-expression of Stargazing with GluR2 in group Ⅰ as compared with group C.Conclusion GluR1-AMPA receptor transfers from cytoplasm to cell membrane but GluR2-AMPA receptor does not in rats with incisional pain.

Objective To investigate the anti-tumor effects of hydroxycamptothecin ( HCPT ) with different lactone ratios on the mice models of H22 hepatoma. Methods Mice models of H22 hepatoma were established. Tumor inhibiting rates of HCPT with different lactone ratios ( 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%) and the growth status of model mice before and after chemotherapy were observed. Serum biochemical indices were determined to investigate the effects of HCPT with different lactone ratios on hepatic and renal function of the mice. Results Positive control drug and HCPT with different lactone ratios all inhibited the tumor in mice with H22 hepatoma, the inhibition rate was 65. 30%, 12. 57%, 49. 23%, 75. 47%, 90. 06% and 93. 22%, respectively. Compared with the model control group, the living conditions of the mice in HCPT groups were improved. With increasing of lactone ratios, the hepatic injury was alleviated markedly, but the renal injury was aggravated. Conclusion There is a positive correlation between lactone ratios and its anti-tumor effect, and HCPT with 75% lactone can achieve preferable anti-tumor effect with less toxicity as compared with that with 100% lactone ratio.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis (IRF) and its diagnosis and treatment. Methods Data of 27 IRF cases admitted into our hospital during recent 8 years were retrospectively analyzed. Result The main clinical manifestations of IRF included abdominal pain, lumbago, mass in retroperitoneal cavity and ureteral obstruction. The main diagnostic approach to IRF was the image examination. Preoperative correct diagnosis was established in 85 2% of cases. Ureterolysis and wrapping up with the omentum was performed in 21 cases of ureteral obstruction. Two cases suffering from renal artery (RA) stenosis were relieved with arteria renalis lysis. One superior mesenteric artery (SMA) stenosis was managed by arterial lysis. Twenty six cases were cured and one case died postoperatively. Conclusion IRF has nonspecific clinical manifestations. The preoperative diagnosis depends on the image characteristics. The treatment mainly consists of the relief of the obstructive symptoms.
