Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2012;19(7):972-973
ObjectiveTo explore the expression of Smad2 in cervical carcinoma and analyze the clinical significance of Smad2.MethodsThe expression of Smad2 in normal uterus group( NE group,n =61 ) and cervical carcinoma group( CC group,n =53 ) were detected by immunohistochemistry to analyze the significance of Smad2 in the cervical carcinoma.ResultsPositive rate of expression of Smad2 protein in NE group was 39.3%,positive rate was 77.4% in CC group,statistical difference was found between the two groups(P < 0.01 ).The degree of differentiation of cervical cancer was lower,and the Smad2 positive rate was higher,well-differentiated and poorly differentiated were 52.6% and 91.2%,respectively,and the difference was statistically significante ( P < 0.01 ) ; The invasion of cancer was higher,and the Smad2-positive rate was higher ≤ 1/2 and > 1/2 were 66.7% and 91.3%,respectively,and the difference was statistically significante ( P < 0.05 ).ConclusionThe expression of Smad2 was less; Smad2 was related to depth of invasion and degree of differentiation of cervical carcinoma,which could be used as clinical diagnosis and prognostic markers.
4.Progress of histone deacetylase in hepatocellular carcinoma
International Journal of Surgery 2008;35(9):609-612
Histone acetylation and deacetylation is an important regulatory way of gene expression in eukaryotic cells. As a key regulatory enzyme, histone deacetylase is overexpressed in many malignant tumors, including hepa- tocellular carcinoma. In addition, it has been suggested to be a potential therapeutic target for solid tumors. In this study, we review the classification, mechanisms, as well as the expression and regulation of histone deactylases in hepatocelhlar carcinoma.
5.Correlation between Ultrasonography and Pathology in Expansive Type of Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Chinese Journal of Ultrasonography 1995;4(6):247-250
Expansive type of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a subtype of HCC. Correlation between the preoperative sonography and postoperative pathology was studied in 35 cases of HCC. According to the classification of nakashima, 21 cases belonged to the expansive type whereas the other 14 cases the infiltrative type. Different from the infiltrative type. the expansive type of HCC had four specific sonographic appearances: hypoechoic ring, hypoechcic halo, pedunculated and small nodular echo which had different pathological bases. Expansive tyje of HCC was not so commonly seen as infiltative type but its rate of surgical resection was mu~h higher than that of infiltratine type (JP< 0. 01). Thus, it is the kind of HCC with significant clinical importance. Preoperative ultrasonographic diagnosis help to decide the way of treatment.

Objective:To improve the prediction of the resectability of esophageal carcinoma by computed tomography.Methods:Eighty-five esoghageal carcinoma cases diagnosed by conventional upper GI tract radiography were enrolled.Three CT signs i.e. angularity,triangular area,and angularity combined with posture were used to observe and to determine the >45。Results:The prediction of resectability by CT were accurate which was confirmed by surgical interventions.Conclusion:Determination of the triangular fat pad between the aorta and the tumor lesion by Ct is reliable and practical in the predication of resectability in the patients with esophageal carcinoma.
7.Expression of Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase and NF-κ Bp65 in Patients with Psoriasis Vulgaris and Their Clinical Significance
Chinese Journal of Dermatology 2001;34(2):103-104
Objective To investigate the internal relationship between the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and the activation of NF-κ Bp65 in the skin of patients with psoriasis vulgaris(PV) and their roles in the pathogenesis of PV.Methods The expression and distribution of iNOS and NF-κ Bp65 were studied by in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry in 20 patients with PV and 12 healthy controls.The severity of PV was assessed by Psoriasis and Severity Index(PASI) score.Results ① The expression of both iNOS mRNA and protein was significantly higher in lesional epidermis than those in non-lesional epidermis and epidermis of the controls (P<0.01).Weak exprssion of iNOS mRNA was found in basal cell layer in a small number of healthy controls, however, strong expression was observed in entire basal cell layer and focal parts of prickle cell layer in all PV epidermis.② There was significantly positive correlation between iNOS and NF-κ Bp65 protein expression in lesional epidermis (P< 0.01).③ There was significantly positive correlation between the level of expression of iNOS mRNA in lesional epidermis and PASI score of patients (P< 0.01).Conclusions The expression of iNOS and NF-κ Bp65 is markedly increased in lesional epidermis of patient with PV.The activation of NF-κ B probably takes part in the pathogenesis of PV.High-level expression of iNOS may be due to the activation of NF-κ B.

International Journal of Surgery 2011;38(8):515-518
Objective To evaluate the preoperative diagnostic procedures and treatment choice of primary tumor of the duodenum (PTD).Method The clinical data of 52 cases with PTD in the last 10 years was analyzed retrospectively.Results The correct diagnostic rate of auxiliary examination was:duodenal endoscopy of 90.5%,air barium double radiography of 80%.Six primary benign tumors of duodenum (PBTD)were resected completely with a 5 year's survival of 100%.Among the 46 cases of primary malignant tumors of duodenum (PMTD),28 cases underwent pancreatoduodenectomy,4 cases received segmental duodenectomy,the remaining 13 cases in which the tumors were unresectable were treated bypass.The resection rate was 69.6% and the 5 years' survival rate was 32.6%.Conclusions Duodenal endoscopy and air barium double radiography are mainstays for the diagnosis of PTD.Segmental duodenectomy and simple tumor resection are curable for PBTD; while for PMTD,the therapy of choice should be pancreatoduodenectomy.
9.Absorption and transport of pachymic acid in the human intestinal cell line Caco-2 monolayers.
Journal of Integrative Medicine 2008;6(7):704-10
OBJECTIVE: To study the absorption and transport of pachymic acid (PA) isolated from the sclerotium of Poria cocos (Schw.) Wolf. in human intestinal epithelium. METHODS: By using Caco-2 (the human colonic adenocarcinoma cell lines) cell monolayers as an intestinal epithelial cell model, the permeability of PA was studied from apical side (AP side) to basolateral side (BL side) or from BL side to AP side. The PA was measured by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography coupled with UV detector at maximum absorption wavelength of 210 nm. Transport parameters and apparent permeability coefficients (Papp) were then calculated and compared with those of propranolol and atenolol, which were the transcellular transport markers for high and poor permeability respectively. RESULTS: The Papp values of PA were (9.50+/-2.20) 10(-7) cm/s from AP side to BL side, and (11.30+/-5.90) 10(-7) cm/s from BL side to AP side, respectively. Under the condition of this experiment, the Papp values were 1.45x10(-5) cm/s for propranolol and 4.22x10(-7)cm/s for atenolol. CONCLUSION: PA is transported through the Caco-2 cell monolayer in a concentration-dependent manner and the transport was linear with time. The absorption in apical to basolateral direction and secretion in basolateral to apical direction were poor and their Papp values were comparable to atenolol. Besides passive diffusion of PA, ATP is partially involved in its transport.
10.THE DISTRIBUTION OF LYSINE,METHIONINE,VALINE AND THREONINE IN WHOLE RICE GRAIN IN RELATION TO THE DEGREE OF MILLING IN MODERATION
Acta Nutrimenta Sinica 1956;0(01):-
Whole rice grain was dissected by hand into fractions of pericarp, ale-urone, scutellum, embryo and endosperm. For the convenience of having enough amount of samples for amino acids assay some of which were recom-bined and finally three parts, pericarp +aleurone layer, scutellum + embryo and endosperm, were obtained. Protein, lysine, methionine, threonine and valine contents were determined for each part. The data obtained indicated that although total weight of the first two parts accounted for only 7.27-8.43% of the whole grain, they contributed 14.5-15.8% protein, 29.0-30.5% lysine, 11.8% melhionine, 16.8% valine and 19.4% threonine, contained in the whole grain. During husking process it indicated that the lesser amounts of pericarp, aleurone, scutellum and embryo were retained and the larger percentage of protein and lysine was lost. This fact was identified either by a specially designed miller in the laboratory or a commonly used sand wheel miller in the factory. The suitable degree of milling for rice was discussed and it was proposed that 92% extration for rice rather rational.
