Objective To study the function of let-7 and miR-24 in UVB-induced apoptosis.Methods After NIH3T3 cells were irradiated with UVB.Hoechest33342/PI staining was used to study the cell apoptosis and RT-PCR was used to uralyzc the expression level of let-7 and miR-24.In addition,potential target genes of these miRNAs in PicTar were classified into different function categories through GOstat software.Results Compared to the control,the NIH3T3 cells exposure to UVB appeared typical apoptotic and necrotic ceils by fluorescence microscope.The exprossion level of let-7 and miR-24 in NIH3T3 cells after UVB irradiation was higher than that of the control.Among the target genes,casp3,bc1212,map3kl and cdk5 were also involved in UVB-induced apoptosis mechanism.Conclusion Let-7 and miR-24 play a role in UVB-induced apoptosis.

Objective To study the diagnostic value of 3 dimentional CT reconstruction in upper urinary tract obstructive diseases. Methods 37 patients with upper urinary tract obstructive diseases underwent thin slice helical CT scan and 3 dimentional reconstruction of the urinary tract as well as 3 dimentional CT angiography when needed. Results All the cases have been definitely diagnosed including ureteral carcinoma in 8, bladder carcinoma in 2, ureteral calculi in 9, benign ureteral stricture in 7, congenital malformation in 7 and pelvic tumor in 4.All the patients except those with pelvic tumors underwent surgical intervention and the diagnosis were confirmed.The operative findings were in concord with the helical CT results. Conclusions 3 dimentional CT reconstruction of the urinary tract can provide distinct urinary tract images and helps determining the site and the cause of the obstruction. Compared with other methods, the procedure has the advantages of high resolution, rapid imaging and low invasiveness. It might become the most valuable means of detecting upper urinary tract diseases.

Objective To investigate the infectious complications after nonmyeloablative allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (NASCT). Methods Ten patients with leukemia received NASCT from HLA-identical or 1-3 antigen mismatched sibling donors with conditioning regimens of Flu/Cy+BU+ALG. Five patients were acute leukemia (AL) and all of them is in complete remission (CR1). Cyclosporine in combination with methotrexate was administered for GVHD prophylaxis. Results WBC recovered to more than 0.5 ?10 9/L during postoperative 10 day to 38 day and platelet recovered to more than 20?10 9/L during postoperative 8 day to 16 day. Bacterial infections occurred in 3 patients (30 %) and cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections in 2 patients (20 %). Varicella zoster virus (VZV) infections occurred in one patient (10 %). No fungal infections were documented. No patients died as a result of infection . Conclusion NASCT is a safe and effective therapeutic method for leukemia. It reduces acute GVHD,regimen-related toxicity and early neutropenia associated with traditional allo-HSCT.

Ojective To investigate the clinical application value of low dose contrast agent in computerized tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) with spectral CT imaging.Methods Totally 52 patients suspected with pulmonary embolism underwent multi-slice spiral CT pulmonary angiography,and were randomly divided into a control group (n =27) and a research group (n=25).The research group used spectral CT with 35 ml of contrast medium and the control group used 64-slice CT with conventional 80 to 90 ml of contrast medium.The CT values of the pulmonary trunk,left pulmonary artery (LPA),right pulmonary artery (RPA),pulmonary vein and ascending aorta were measured.The contrast to noise ratio (CNR) of the pulmonary artery was also calculated.In addition,the image quality of CTPA was evaluated independently by two experienced radiologists.Results The CT values (HU) of the pulmonary trunk,left pulmonary artery(LPA),right pulmonary artery (RPA) in the research group were (432.2±63.4),(373.5±48.8),(381.4±53.6) and (62.5-±6.4),respectively,and significantly higher than those in the control group,showing statistical differences (P<0.05).The evaluation results of the CTPA images by two radiologists showed that the image quality in the research group was better than that in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion The image quality of pulmonary angiography with spectral CT using low contrast medium dose can be improved compared with the conventional spiral CT.

Objective To analyze the correlation of carotid artery stenosis(CAS)with postoperative cognitive dysfunc?tion(POCD)in patients who underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting(OPCABG). Methods Between March 2014 and October 2014, a total of 157 patients who underwent OPCABG in our hospital were enrolled and divided into POCD group and non-POCD group according to their performance respondent to MMSE questionnaire survey conducted 5 days before operation. LOTCA questionnaire survey was conducted at the first day and 7th days pre-and post-operation re?spectively in order to investigate the influence of CAS on POCD in patients. Results The incidence of POCD was 30.6%(48 out of 157). Advanced age, diabetes,cultural level,carotid artery stenosis, Hb level after operation, score of LOTCA question?naire survey conducted before surgery,time of respirator and the time spend in ICU were significant predictive factors for POCD. However, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, CAS and the time spend in ICU were independent risk factors for POCD, especially CAS(OR=5.078,95%CI:2.211-11.662, P<0.001). Patients with severe CAS suffer from a significant decline in cognitive function on space, time, action and ideation. Conclusion CAS is a predominant risk factor for POCD in patients undergoing OPCABG.

Objective To study the reconstitution of nature kill cell early after non-myeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplantation (NAST). Methods Cell phenotypes and in vitro immune functions were analyzed by direct immune fluorescence with FCM, T-cell activation test and MTT assay, respectively. Results The percentages of CD+3, CD+4 cells were low, (2.03±15.60) % and (22.69±12.29)%, respectively, while CD+8 lymphocytes were normal or high [(29.26±8.99)%] 1 month after NAST. Proliferative response to a T lymphocyte activator (PHA) was blunted, 94.60±44.87. The percentage of NK cells was within normal limits or high (n=7) in allotransplanted patients. It is (18.77±9.11) %. The percentage of CD+56 NK cells expressing IL-2R (CD25) was high and values obtained from transplanted patients were significantly different from control values . They are (3.71±2.23) % (t = 2.116, P = 0.044). NK cell activity in part of patients was higher than that observed in control cells (25.30±12.39) % vs (16.60±3.53) % (t = 2.135, P= 0.047). Conclusion NK cell has recovered early after transplantation and may be particularly relevant as a first line of defence in immunosurveillance against neoplastic cells or microbial infections, until a full reconstitution of T cellmediated immune response can be achieved.
