Objective To investigate the effect of phenylhexyle isothiocyanate (PHI) on demethylation and activation of transcription gene p15 in acute leukemia cell line Molt-4. Methods DNA sequencing and modified methylation specific PCR (MSP) were used to screen p15-M and p15-U mRNA after Moh-4 cells were treated with PHI. P15 mRNA was measured by RT-PCR. Pl5 protein was detected by Western blotting. Results Hypermethylation of gene pl5 was apparently attenuated and activation of transcription p15 gene was de novo after 5 days exposure to PHI. PHI enhanced both the expression of p15 mRNA and p15 protein in a concentration-dependent manner. The ratio of the gray scale of p15 mRNA strap was 0.17±0.12 in control, 0.29±0.14 in PHI 10 μmol/L, 0.55±0.07 in PHI 20 μmol/L, 0.93±0.13 in PHI 40 μmol/L. Conclusion PHI could active demethylation and transcription of gene p15.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) on cardiomyocyte apoptosis following renal ischemia-reperfusion injury(RIRI) in rats.MethodsThirty-six male SD rats weighing 250-280 g were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n =12 each): group sham operation (group S) ; group I/R and group I/R + ALA ( group L).The model of RIRI was produced by occlusion of renal artery and vein for 45 min followed by 24 h reperfusion,in group S the renal pedicles were exposed but not occluded.In group L ALA infusion (30 mg/kg) was given via tail vein at 20 mln before ischemia and at 20 min before reperfusion,while in group I/R the equal volume of solution (35％ polyethylene glycol + 60％ physiological saline + 5％ ethanol) was infused instead of ALA.The animals were saerificed at the end of 24 h of reperfusion,blood samples were taken for detecting concentrations of serum creatinine (Cr) and malondialdehyde (MDA).Then the hearts were immediately removed for determination of SOD activity,MDA content,cardiomyocyte apoptosis (flow cytometry) and Bcl-2/Bax ratio (immunohistology).ResultsSerum Cr concentration,serum and myocardium MDA levels and cardiomyocyte apoptosis were significantly increased after RIRI in groups I/R and L as compared with group S ( P ＜ 0.05).ALA treatment significantly decreased serum Cr concentration,serum and myocardium MDA levels,cardiomyocyte apoptosis and increased SOD activity and Bcl-2/Bax ratio ( P ＜ 0.05).ConclusionALA can attenuate myocardium injury by inhibiting cardiomyocyte apoptosis following RIRI in rats.

Purpose/Significance Through the establishment of the pharmaceutical rebate prevention system,the capacity of preven-tion of pharmaceutical rebate can be improved,and the data security of patients can be protected more effectively.Method/Process With the help of information security equipments such as network access control,database audit,and resource monitoring platform,the algorithm of the original pharmaceutical rebate prevention system is optimized,and the comprehensive mobile terminal platform is com-bined to achieve a full range of pharmaceutical rebate prevention system and online audit and archiving.Result/Conclusion A more comprehensive defense system is built,and the system provides a more timely and efficient prevention and control means with clearer po-sitioning for data security management departments and discipline inspection departments.

Objective:To analyze clinical characteristics of primary pancreatic lymphoma (PPL) patients.Methods:Clinical features of 22 patients diagnosed as PPL admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2002 to May 2023 were analyzed retrospectively.Results:The median age was 56.4±13.3 years. The median time from onset to diagnosis was 1.0 (1.0, 3.0) months. The main clinical manifestations were abdominal pain (15/22), weight loss (14/22) and jaundice (10/22). Elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was observed in 15/20 (75%) patients. Only 2 (2/9, 22.2%) patients had increased CA199 levels and 2 (2/9, 22.2%) patients had increased CEA levels. The maximum tumor diameter was 5.0 (3.8, 6.9) cm. Contrast-enhanced CT mostly showed low enhancement lesions. Major pancreatic duct dilatation were rare on CT scan (4/20). Fifteen patients were confirmed by pancreatic pathology, of which 8 were obtained by surgery, 4 were obtained by CT or ultrasound-guided percutaneous biopsy, and 3 were obtained by EUS-FNA. The main pathological type was diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (14/22). 19 patients received chemotherapy, and 6 patients died with a median follow-up of 5.0 (1.5, 35.5) months.Conclusions:PPL is rare and easy to be misdiagnosed. Elevated LDH levels, normal tumor markers, and non-dilatation of main pancreatic duct are important diagnostic clues. It is important to obtain pathology by EUS-FNA and other methods for definite diagnosis.
