Objective To construct the luciferase reporter gene vector of cell division cycle 2 (Cdc2) gene promoter and determine its transcriptional activity. Methods Primers were designed based on human Cdc2 promoter sequence from UCSC software. Then Cdc2 promoter from human genome DNA was replicated. After pGL3-Basic vector and Cdc2 promoter were digested with restriction enzymes SacⅠand XhoⅠseparately, Cdc2 promoter was inserted into pGL3-Basic vector. The recombinant plasmid named pGL3-Cdc2-promoter was transiently co-transfected into U2OS cells with control vector pRL-SV40, and then the activity of dual luciferase was detected. Results pGL3-Cdc2-promoter was constructed successfully. The restriction analysis and sequencing proved the entirely correct sequencing results. The luciferase activity was higher in pGL3-Cdc2-promoter/pRL-SV40 group than that of pGL3-Basic/pRL-SV40 group (1.591 5±0.199 8 vs 0.049 9±0.010 4). Conclusion pGL3-Cdc2-promoter can be transcribed and activated in U2OS cells. This study provided an important basis for screening and evaluation of anticancer drugs.

AIM: To investigate the changes of cardiac function, oxidative stress and apoptosis in myocardium of rat model of heart failure induced by adriamycin (ADR). METHODS: At the end of the study, we observed content of malondialdehyde (MDA), activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and apoptosis. Expression of P53 protein and p53 mRNA were measured with immunohistochemical method and RT-PCR, respectively. RESULTS: Our data showed that content of MDA increased, activity of SOD decreased and apoptosis in myocardium happened while cardiac function decreased after ADR treatment. p53 gene expression and P53 protein obviously increased in heart failure group. CONCLUSION: There were oxidative stress and apoptosis occurred significantly in a model of heart failure induced by ADR. p53 gene might play an important role in the apoptosis. Correlation analyses suggested that apoptosis in myocardium is related to oxidative stress in ADR-induced heart failure.

Objective To determine the levels of total antioxidative capacity(TAOC) and malondialdehyde(MDA) in liver exposed to hyperoxia,and to explore whether oxygen inhalation could cause liver injury in newborn rats.Methods Sixty-four newborn rats which were less than 12-hour-old were enrolled in this study.The rats were randomly divided into hyperoxia group(FiO2=0.85,n=32) and control group(air,n=32).Eight rats in each group were randomly sacrificed to obtain liver tissues at 1d,3d,7d and 14d.The TAOC of liver homogenates was detected by chemical colorimetry,and the MDA level of liver homogenates was measured by thiobarbituric acid test.Results In the hyperoxia group,TAOC in liver increased on the 1st day[(3.60±0.28)U/mg prot vs(3.39±0.19)U/mg prot,P<0.05];TAOC began to decreased on the 3rd day,and significantly lower than that of control group on the 14th day [(3.10±0.15)U/mg prot vs (3.56±0.14)U/mg prot,P<0.01].In the hyperoxia group,the MDA level increased on the 3rd day[(3.58±0.11)nmol/mg prot vs(2.82±0.14)nmol/mg prot,P<0.01],and reached a peak on the 7th day[(3.58 ±0.11)nmol/mg prot vs(2.82±0.14)nmol/mg prot,P<0.01],then decreased but still remained higher than control group on the 14th day [(2.92±0.18)nmol/mg prot vs(2.77 ±0.09)nmol/mg prot,P<0.01].Conclusion Too more MDA in liver and TAOC decrease may cause liver injury in newborn rats exposed to hyperoxia.With the oxygen inhalation time prolonging,the liver injury aggravation.

Objective To measure the parameters of anterior bow of the femoral medullary cavity by means of 3D spiral CT reconstruction and to provide the anatomical basis for the design of the femoral component prosthesis.Methods 105 healthy Chinese left femurs were scanned in standard neutral position by 3D spiral CT.Parameters of the anterior bow of the femoral medullary were measured by medical imagine software.Results The parameter values of the male femur were statistically bigger than those of the female,including the length of the femoral medullary and the distance from the point of maximum curvature to plane above lesser trochanter (P＜0.001).No significant differences between male and female in the position index of the point of maximum curvature were observed (P＞0.05).The relative curvature of the female femoral anterior arch was statistically bigger than that of the male (P＜0.001).The femoral curvature subtense and the length of the femoral medullary showed no significant correlation (r=0.106,P=0.281).Conclusion There are certain anatomic differences in the anterior bow of the femoral medullary between male and female.Appropriate length of femoral component should be considered in total hip replacement operation.And it is necessary to design the femoral components fitting the features of the femurs according gender difference.

Objective To describe the CT features of giant lymph node hyperplasia in abdomen.Methods A retrospective study of CT features of giant lymph node hyperplasia in abdomen confirmed by surgery or biopsy pathology was performed.CT findings of all lesions were assessed by two radiologists including size,location,pattern of enhancement and density characteristics.Results 1 2 patients with giant lymph node hyperplasia in abdomen were confirmed including 7 women and 5 men with age range from 11 to 75 years (median age 3 9 years).All patients underwent pre-and post-contrast enhanced CT.CT showed a single mass in 9 patients lo-cated at retroperitoneum in 5,porta hepatic in 2,and mesentery in 2.Multiple masses were located at chest,abdomen and neck in 3.The lesions ranged in size from 1.2 to 11.9 cm in maximum diameter with an average size of 3.7cm.CT showed all lesions with well-defined margin and regular shape.The lesions less than 5 cm in diameter usually showed homogeneous enhancement,and how-ever those more than 5 cm showed heterogeneous enhancement.The calcification was seen in two patients.Conclusion CT features of giant lymph node hyperplasia in abdomen are characteristic.

Objective To explore the relation of the expressions of MDM2 and VEGF in osteosarcoma with the pathological parameters and prognosis of the tumor.Methods The expressions of MDM2 and VEGF were detected with immunohistochemical(SP) method in specimens from 56 cases of osteosarcoma.The correlation between the expressions of MDM2,VEGF and pathological grade,metastasis and prognosis was analyzed statistically.while 8 cases of fibrous dysplasia of bone were used as negative control group.Results The positive rates of MDM2 and VEGF in osteosarcoma were 64.3%(36/56) and 67.9%(38/56),respectively .MDM2 and VEGF didn't express in negative control group.The expression of MDM2 and VEGF were not significantly correlated to the pathological grades of the osteosarcoma,but which were significantly correlated with tumor metastasis and prognosis(P

The retrieval of literature novelty assessment projects was divided into unlimited retrieval and limited retrieval according to the retrieval terms.The redundant retrieval mode,complicated retrieval process,poor compatibility,and lack of summary that affect the retrieval effectiveness of literature novelty assessors were analyzed.The overall retrieval ability and literature analysis ability of literature novelty assessors were put forward for improving their retrieval effectiveness.

Two patients with neonatal diabetes tested as V59A and V59M mutations were chosen for the study. Clinical data were analyzed retrospectively. The results showed that the patient with V59A mutation was characteristic of spasm and hyperglycemia at the age of three month, and treated with insulin for a long time as unresponsive to the glibenclamide at the beginning. Myasthenia and delay of development were observed during the follow-up. At the age of two years, glibenclamide was tried for the second time with a high dose and fairly-controlled glucose level. The patient with V59M mutation was diagnosed with diarrhea, hyperglycemia, and ketosis at the age of two month, and was responsive to glibenclamide at a relatively low dose with well-controlled glucose level. These results suggest that KCNJ11 V59M mutation would show some milder clinical manifestations and better glibenclamide efficacy as compared with V59A mutation.

Objective To assess the efficacy of rociverine tablets combined with imrecoxib tablets and comfortable nursing in the control of bladder spasm after transurethral laser resection of prostate.Methods According to the digital table,120 patients who diagnosed as benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) were randomly divided into four groups.The patients in combined drug group (group A) were administered rociverine tablets(10mg tid) and imrecoxib tablets (100mg bid) from the day of surgery to the day of catheter removal.The patients in rociverine tablets group (group B) were treated with rociverine tablets (10rag tid),and the patients in imrecoxib tablets group (group C) were administered imrecoxib (100mg bid) from the day of surgery to the day of catheter removal.The patients in group D were administered indometacin suppositories in anus when they felt pain.All patients were given comfortable nursing.The frequency and duration of bladder spasm,the time of bladder irrigation,time needed for washing solution to turn clear,and the time of catheter indwelling in the four groups were observed and compared.Results Compared with group D,group A,group B and group C all had statistically significant differences in the frequency and duration of bladder spasm,the time of bladder irrigation,time needed for washing solution to turn clear,and the time of catheter indwelling (Fa =9.469,Fb =13.443,Fo =12.157,Fd =26.609,Fe =33.717,Ff =30.524,Fs =100.836,Fh =89.985,P3 ＜ 0.001).These parameters were lower in group A than those in group B and group C,and the differences were statistically significant (P1 =0.030,0.002,0.012,0.003,＜ 0.001,＜ 0.001,＜ 0.001,＜ 0.001;P2 =0.030,0.004,0.035,0.001,＜ 0.001,＜ 0.001,＜ 0.001,＜ 0.001).There were no statistically significant differences between group B and group C (all P4 ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Rociverine tablets combinined with imrecoxib tablets for the prevention and treatment of bladder spasm after transurethral laser resection of prostate was effective,which was worthy of clinic application.
