[Objective] To investigate the effects of platycodin D(PD) on the proliferation and apoptosis of human stomach cancer SGC7901 and the related mechanism.[Methods] SGC7901 was cultured in virto and was treated with 5～20μm·L-1 concentrations of PD.Cell proliferation was examined by MTT assay.Cell apoptosis was detected by Annexin V FITC/PI double staining.The change of mitochondrial trans-membrane potential was measured by JC-1 staining.The potein expression of cleaved caspase-3,cleaved caspase-9,cleaved PARP,bcl-2,bax,p-ERK,ERK,p-JNK,JNK,p-p38 and p38 detected by Western blot.[Results] MTT results showed that PD inhibited the growth of SGC7901 cells in a dose-dependent manner at 24h and 48h.SGC7901 cells treated with PD for 24h showed significantly enhanced apoptosis and weakened mitochondrial membrane potential compared with the control cells.Western blot results showed that PD could up-regulate expression of cleaved PARP,cleaved caspase-3,cleaved caspase-9,bax,p-JNK,p-p38 protein,decreased bcl-2,p-ERK protein,the expression of ERK,JNK,p38 protein did not change significantly.[Conclusion] PD may inhibit the proliferation and induce the apoptosis of SGC7901 cells.These findings indicated that PD inhibited cell proliferation by inhibiting the ERK signaling.PD effect on bax and bcl-2 by activation of JNK and p38 signaling pathway resulted in the decrease of mitochondrial membrane potential and activation of caspase,which induced the apoptosis of cancer cells.

BACKGROUND: It is discovered by administrating different emetics to vomiting animals, like cats, that there are a large amount of Fos positive neuronal expressions in the arc region from nucleus of solitary tract, lateral tegmentum to ventrolateral area. And it has been viewed that the arc region from area postrema, nucleus of solitary tract to ventrolateral reticular structure is the main emetic region. Whether do the non-vomiting animals reflect in response or not after emetic injection?OBJECTIVE: To observe the distribution of Fos positive neurons in relevant emetic regions of brain and spinal cord in rats after abdominal injection of emetic, cisplatin.DESIGN: Randomized controlled experiment based on animals.SETTING: Neural Physiological Research Room of Life Science College in Hebei Normal University and Physiological Room of Basic Medicine Institute in Hebei Medical University.MATERIALS: The experiment was performed in Neural Physiological Research Room of Life Science College in Hebei Normal University and Physiological Room of Basic Medicine Institute in Hebei Medical University from March to August 2003. Twelve SD male rats were employed, body weighted varied from 220 to 250 g, of clean-grade. They were randomized into experimental group of 6 rats and the control of 6 rats.INTERVENTIONS: In experimental group, the emetic, cisplatin, was injected abdominally 10 mg/kg. In the control, the physiological saline of same dose was injected. Afterwards, the activity changes in rats were observed at room temperature, quiet and light-avoided environment. Six hours later, the brain tissue was collected for frozen continuous sectioning. Immunohistochemical staining method was used to observe the distribution of Fos positive neurons in brainstem and forebrain nuclei and to count positive cell.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Behavior observation in rats after emetic injection. ② Counts of Fos positive cell in relevant regions of brain in rats.RESULTS: Twelve rats all entered result analysis. ① In 20 minutes after injection, the rats in both groups were in tranquilizing state, lying prone with body curled, almost without any movement. In 60 minutes after injection, the rats in the control were recovered to normal, free of eating or drinking. The rats in experimental group were in prone-lying state with body curled. They rose up or shook the heads occasionally, and they breathed fast and uneven.In 2 hours after injection, in experimental group, the rats were still in abdominal prone tightly in the cage, with heads lowed and irregular shaking of noses. In 5 hours, the rats in experimental group began standing up and moving, with normal breathing, but they still did not eat or drink. ② Fos positive neurons in solitary tract, area postrema and lateral parabrachial nucleus and paraventricular nucleus, supraoptic nucleus and arc nucleus in hypothalamus (64.3 ±9.6, 83.4 ±15.0, 148.8 ±19.9, 80. 2 ± 11.8, 20.7 ±3.8, 86. 6 ± 10.8) were remarkably higher than those in the control(56. 2 ±6.3,73.5±9.9,136.9±17.8,66. 1±10.3,17.3±3.4,78.8±10.5).CONCLUSION: Emetics induce discomforts in internal organs of rats, due to which, there probably exist emetic regions similar to vomiting animals in central neural system. But it is probably lack of vomiting-related adjusting mechanism. Emetics irritate the increase of Fos positive neurons in relevant regions in the brain of rat, which suggests that there exist relevant neural chemical pathways similar to nausea in the brain of non-vomiting rats.

Objective To explore changes of urine transferrin (TFR),micro albumin (mALb),β2 microspheres protein (MG),α1MG and N-acetylβ-D amino group (NAG) in children with kidney injury induced by cytomegalovirus (CMV) infec?tion, and the outcome after treatment. Methods Fifty children with CMV infection were used as case group, and 35 chil?dren of convalescence stage of upper respiratory tract infection were used as control group. The serum levels of creatinine (Scr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN),β2MG, liver function, CMV-IgM, CMV-PCR and brainstem auditory (BAEP), head CT and urine routine test, urine TFR, mALb,β2MG,α2MG and NAG were detected. The sputum CMV-PCR was detected if childrencombined with CMV pneumonia. Ganciclovir (5mg/kg) was given to two groups, 1/12 h i.v. for 14 d. The urine TFR,mALb,β2MG, α2MG and NAG were detected again after treatment. Results There were no significant differences in the urine mALb and TFR between the two groups. The urine levels ofα1MG, NAG andβ2MG were higher in case group than those of control group. The urine levels ofα1MG, NAG andβ2MG were decreased after 2-week treatment in case group. There were no significant differences in urine mALb and TFR before and after treatment. Conclusion The combined detection ofβ2MG,α1MG and NAG can predict CMV kidney damage in children at a early stage.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of periodontitis on the expression of apoptosis-related proteins in pancreas of rats with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.Methods:Spontaneously type 2 diabetic OLETF rats were randomly divided into 2 groups:diabetes with or without periodontitis(diabetes group and combination group).LETO rats with the same germline and the same age but having normal glucose tolerance were randomly divided into control group and periodontitis group.20 weeks after periodontitis were established,all the rats were sacrificed and the pancreas were pathologically examined by HE staining.The expression of Bax,Bcl-2 and Caspase-3 in the pancreas islet were detected by immunohistochemistry staining and semi-quantitative analysis.Results:The expression of Bax, Bcl-2 and Caspase-3 in the pancreas islet was no significant difference between control and periodontitis groups(P=0.324,P=0.091,P=0.852).Compared with diabetes group,the expression of Bax and Caspase-3 in combination group showed a significant increase(P=0.000,P=0.000),and the expression of Bcl-2 was significantly decreased(P=0.022).Conclusion:Under healthy conditions,periodontitis has no effect on the expression of apoptosis-related proteins in rat pancreas islet.However,in rats with diabe-tes,periodontitis may affect the expression of apoptosis-related proteins in pancreas islet.

This paper aims to retrospectively analyze the nursing management of one-stop hybrid procedures and to sum up the clinical experience.The key point of successful implementation of nursing management of one-stop hybrid procedures lies in the layout of hybrid operation room,in the intraoperative nursing cooperation and the professional nursing personnel training,and in the establishment of a new talent training mode that contains flexible allocation mechanism of nursing human resources as well as short-term post rotation of professional nursing staff.The one-stop hybrid operation is a minimally-invasive procedure for the treatment of complex diseases.Scientific nursing management is the strong guarantee to ensure a successful “one-stop” hybrid operation.

AIM: To explore the effect of melatonin (MLT) on the apoptosis of thymocytes and splenocytes in mice induced by ionizing radiation and its mechanism. METHODS: The percentages of apoptotic bodies and the DNA lytic rates of thymocytes and splenocytes in mice in vitro and in vivo were detected with flow cytometry and fluorospectrophotometry, respectively. RESULTS: The apoptosis of mouse thymocytes and splenocytes in vitro increased with significant dose-dependence in 0 5-6 0 Gy X-irradiation. When MLT of 2 mmol?L -1 was added into thymocytes or splenocytes in vitro before irradiation with 0 5-6 0 Gy X-rays, the percentages of apoptotic bodies and the DNA lytic rates all decreased significantly as compared with those in the irradiation group. The percentages of apoptotic bodies in these two kinds of cells were 86 25% and 89 22% of those in the irradiation group, respectively, and the DNA lytic rates were 87 23% and 89 16%, respectively. When MLT was injected into intraperitonium in mice 60 min before whole-body irradiation with 2 Gy X-rays, the percentages of apoptotic bodies and the DNA lytic rates were significantly lower than those in the irradiation group, and near or lower than those in the sham-irradiation group. MLT of 0 1-2 5 mg/kg decreased the lymphocyte apoptosis, but without significant dose-dependence. CONCLUSION: The protective effects of MLT on mouse lymphocytes damaged by irradiation in vivo are obvious than those in vitro. [

Objective:To investigate the short-term efficacy of totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (TLDG) after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) versus direct TLDG for early gastric cancer.Methods:The propensity score matching and retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 623 patients with early gastric cancer who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from March 2014 to December 2019 were collected. There were 405 males and 218 females, aged from 26 to 86 years, with a median age of 62 years. Of 623 patients, 25 cases undergoing TLDG after ESD were divided into ESD+TLDG group and 598 cases undergoing TLDG directly were divided into TLDG group. Observation indicators: (1) the propensity score matching conditions and comparison of general data between the two groups after propensity score matching; (2) intraoperative and postoperative situations of TLDG; (3) stratification analysis of the ESD+TLDG group. The propensity score matching was conducted by 1∶2 matching using the nearest neighbor method. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean±SD, and comparison between groups was done using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M (range) and comparison between groups was done using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were represented as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data between groups was analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Results:(1) The propensity score matching conditions and comparison of general data between the two groups after propensity score matching: 75 of 623 patients had successful matching, including 25 in the ESD+TLDG group and 50 in the TLDG group. Before propensity score matching, the body mass index (BMI), cases with tumor diameter ≤20 mm, 21 to 30 mm or>30 mm, cases with tumor classified as stage Ⅰ, stage Ⅱ or stage Ⅲ of clinical staging were (22.3±3.6)kg/m 2, 16, 6, 3, 24, 1, 0 of the ESD+TLDG group, respectively, versus (24.3±2.7)kg/m 2, 238, 125, 235, 312, 126, 160 of the TLDG group, showing significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups ( t=2.744, Z=?2.834, ?4.209, P<0.05). After propensity score matching, the BMI, cases with tumor diameter ≤20 mm, 21 to 30 mm or >30 mm, cases with tumor classified as stage Ⅰ or stage Ⅱ of clinical staging were (22.3±3.6)kg/m 2, 16, 6, 3, 24, 1 of the ESD+TLDG group, versus (23.6±2.9)kg/m 2, 29, 12, 9, 48, 2 of the TLDG group, showing no significant difference between the two groups ( t=1.542, Z=?0.597, 0.000, P>0.05).
