Objective To observe the inhibitory effect of LaCl_3 on the growth of human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines SMMC-7721 and its mechanism.Methods The cells were treated with different doses of LaCl_3 and the growth curve,colony inhibitory rates,the levels of AFP of cultured cells were detected at 1,3,5 and 7 days after they were dealed with LaCl_3.The changes of cell cycle were detected by flow cytometry and the expressions of cell cycle protein CyclinD_1,PCNA,CDK_4 and P16 were observed by immunocytochemistry staining.Results MTT test showed that SMMC-7721 cell proliterating activity was obviously inhibited by LaCl_3 in a time and dose related manner at concentrations of 0.50 and 1.00 mmol?L~(-1).The colony forming inhibitory rate of 0.10,0.50 and(1.00 mmol?L~(-1))LaCl_3 were 51%, 67% and 97% (P

Objective:To investigate the mechanisms of IL-1β promoted lung cancer cells proliferation. Methods: The“Transwell? Inserts” system was used to coculture lung cancer cells A549,NCI-H520 with macrophages. BrdU ELISA used to measure the effect of macrophages promoted lung cancer cells proliferation. Expression of mRNA of IL-1β in A549 and NCI-H520 cells were analysed by Real-time PCR analysis. IL-1β was responsible for macrophage-promoted lung cancer cells growth, IL-1β neutralizing antibody was added. The autophagy marker Beclin1 protein was detected by Western blot. Results:The BrdU ELISA assay showed that after coincubation with macrophages in the proportion of 1:0. 5,the OD value of A549 increased from(0. 41±0. 06)to(1. 13±0. 10). There was statistical significance(P<0. 05). It also showed that the growth of the A549 cell was dependent on the macrophage number (P<0. 05). The OD value variability of NCI-H520 cells was as same as A549 cell upon cocultured with macrophages. Real-time PCR results showed that the expression of IL-1β mRNA in macrophages was remarkably enhanced in a time dependent manner upon coincubated with lung cancer cell,and the expression level was higher than lung cancer cells. Addition of IL-1β neutralizing antibody markedly inhibited macrophage-promoted lung cancer cells proliferation. The OD value of these two cells were decreased from ( 3. 63 ± 0. 33) to (1. 46±0. 18),from (2. 94±0. 38) to (1. 53±0. 20),respectively (P<0. 05). After treatment with IL-1β,the expression of Beclin1 was significantly inhibited in tumor cells. Conclusion:Over-expression of IL-1βfrom macrophages and lung cancer cells is re-sponsible for proliferation of tumor cells in coculture condition. Inhibition of autophagy in tumor cells may be the important mechanisms of IL-1β promotes lung cancer cells proliferation.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and outcome of resection and reconstruction of hepatic artery in hilar cholangiocacinoma (HCC).Methods The data of 29 patients with HCC with hepatic artery reconstruction carried out from March 2009 to August 2013 in our center were retrospectively analyzed.23 right hepatic arteries and 6 common hepatic arteries were involved.In-situ anastomosis was carried out in 20 patients and a double anastomosis using gastrodoudenal artery grafts was carried out in 9 patients.Results There were no arterial thrombosis or other related complications on prolonged follow-up.Conclusion Hepatic artery resection and reconstruction should be carried out if the artery was invaded by a hilar cholangiocarcinoma to produce a high resection rate and a better outcome.

ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of TESTIN gene in endometrial carcinoma and explore the functions of this gene in tumor development and progression.MethodsqRT-PCR and immunochemical staining assay were used to determine the mRNA and protein level of TESTIN in the tumor tissues,and the relationship between TESTIN expression and clinical pathology characteristics was analyzed.Results Compared to normal tissue,76.5％ (52/68) tumor tissues showed TESTIN reduced ( P ＜ 0.01 ),furthermore,this reduction in the subgroup of endometrioid adenocarcinoma was significant,but it was rarely observed in the subgroup of serous papillary adenocarcinoma.ConclusionsTESTIN was obviously down regulated in endometrail carcinoma,especially in endometrioid adenocarcinoma,which indicated TESTIN played an important role in tumorigenesis of uterine.

Objective To investigate the clinical effectiveness of dynamic hip screw (DHS) internal fixation and proximal femoral nail (PFN) internal fixation for intertrochanteric femoral fractures.Methods One hundred and sixty-five patients with intertrochanteric femoral fractures were randomly divided into 2 groups,85 patients were in DHS group and 80 patients were in PFN group.The clinical effectiveness,index in operative procedure and complications were compared between two groups.Results The fine rate of DHS group and PFN group was 75.3％(64/85 ) and 83.8％( 67/80 ) (P ＞ 0.05 ).The indexes of function recover time,fracture healing time,amount of bleeding in operation,operation time in PFN group were significant lower than those in DHS group [(54.3 ± 11.7 ) d vs.(92.6 ± 10.5 ) d,(63.8 ± 12.2) d vs.(71.3 ± 10.6) d,(453.3 ± 50.7) ml vs.(627.5 ± 46.8) ml,(77.9 ± 25.2) min vs.( 115.7 ± 32.8) min](P＜0.05 ).The rate of short-term complications was 16.2％ (13/80) in PFN group,and 12.9 ％ ( 11/85 ) in DHS group(P ＞ 0.05 ).The rate of long-term complications was 1.2％( 1/80 ) in PEN group and 4.7％(4/85 ) in plts group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions As the treatment of intertrochanteric femoral fractures,PFN internal fixation has less bleeding and better efficacy,and can improve function recovery.PFN internal fixation is a better method for unstable femoral fracture.

To explore the pathogenicity of VEG strain Toxoplasma gondii oocysts on China Kunming mice,T.gondii oocysts of ＜ 1 and 102-108 were chosen to feed the mice orally.And the modified agglutination test (MAT),H&E and IHC were used to check the infection of mice.The infection rate,the survival rate of mice,and number of cysts in brain were analyzed.Results showed that 100％ of the mice fed with ≥102 oocysts were infected,the minimum lethal dose was 102 oocysts and the 100％ lethal dose was 108 oocysts.The time of death in acute infection was 7 DPI to 14 DPI.T.gondii cysts formation rate was 32.14％ (9/28),and the number of cysts was 9 to 857 per mouse.The survival rate of infected mice was 67.44％ (29/43),and the longest survival time was more than 390 DPI.Accordingly,the virulence of T.gondii VEG strain is medium,and has a higher cysts formation rate.

ObjectiveTo share the experience of arterial plasty and reconstruction of variant arteries in living donor liver transplantation. MethodsFrom September 2006 to May 2010, 73 living donor liver grafts (64 cases using the right lobe,9 cases using left lobe) were used in patients with end-stage liver disease. The hepatic arteries were evaluated preoperatively with computed tomography and magnetic resonance angiography. Back-table arterial plasty was performed under a microscope or a loupe according to arterial variation. We described technical points based on anatomic variations. There were 13 (17. 8 ％) liver grafts with anatomic hepatic arterial variations and all of these cases were subjected to back-table reconstruction with interrupted 8-0 or 9-0 nonabsorbable nylon monofilament sutures according to the diameter of artery. ResultsIn 3 cases, the associate right hepatic arteries that were arisen from superior esenteric arteris (SMA) were reconstructed to cystic arteries. In 2 cases with the associate right hepatic arteries arisen from the abdominal trunk, the right hepatic arteries and associate right hepatic arteries of donors were anastomosed with right hepatic arteries and left hepatic arteries in recipients respectively. In 2 donors, hepatic arteries had branches, which were reconstructed. All of the arterial plasty were conducted on a back table. No arterial thrombosis was found during a postoperative follow-up period of 6 months. ConclusionLive donor liver transplantation using the right lobe with hepatic artery variation can be performed safely, but there is a potential operative risk of severe complication after transplantation. Tominimize operative difficulties and complications, back-table reconstruction should be applied and proper treatment is given according to individual situations to ensure a safe and satisfactory outcome
