Objective To review the relationship between T helper cell 1/T helper cell 2 (Th1/Th2) shift and tumor recurrence. Methods Literatures on Th1/Th2 shift and tumor recurrence were collected and reviewed. Results Th1/Th2 shift can be detected in the host after therapy of the tumor. Tumor cells escape from host immune surveillance by altering Th1/Th2, which could lead to tumor recurrence. Conclusion Th1/Th2 shift is related to tumor recurrence after therapy. Impelling the reverse of Th2 to Th1 and renewing the balance of T helper cells come out to be a new way for tumor therapy.

Objective To evaluate the diagnosis and treatment of chronic pancreatitis complicated by stricture and dilation of the pancreatic duct. Methods The clinical data of 27 patients of chronic pancreatitis with stricture and dilation of the pancreatic duct undergoing operation in our hospital from 1990 to 1999 were analyzed retrospectively. Results Of the 27 patients, the positive diagnosis rate was 89% by B-US, 100% by CT, 100% by MRCP, 100% by ERCP. All patients received surgical operation, 12 patients received Partington procedure, 3 distal pancreatectomy, 4 pylorus preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy, 4 Beger procedure, 2 Frey procedure, 2 pancreatic cystojejunostmy. The complication rate was 11%. Postoperatively 89%(24/27) patients achieved pain relief,78%(18/23) gained in body weight, and diabetes significantly relieved in 5 cases(33%). Conclusion Appropriate diagnosis and treatment are very important for improving the patients′ life quality and natural history of chronic pancreatitis with stricture and dilation of the pancreatic duct.

Objective To investigate the effect of ketamine on learning and memory function of adult rats after injection of ketamine at early development stage. Methods Twelve rats born in a week were randomly divided into ketamine anesthesia group(Ket group)and normal saline control group(Ns group).Rats in Ket group were intraperitoneally injected with 50 mg/kg ketamine,and those in Ns group were administrated with same amount of normal saline.After eight weeks,Morris water maze test was adopted to explore the latency in place navigation and spatial probe ability.The sections of hippocampus were obtained,and immunohistochemical staining was employed to detect the expression of Bax and Bcl-2.Results In Morris water maze test,the latency in place navigation of Ket group Was significantly longer than that of Ns group(P<0.05),and the spatial probe ability significantly decreased(P<0.05).It Was revealed by immunohistochemical staining that the expression of Bax in Ket group was significantly higher than that in Ns group,while there was no significant difference in the expression of Bcl-2 between these two groups. Conclusion Application of ketamine in neonatal rats may result in learning and memory impairment in adulthood,and the underlying mechanism may correlate to the apoptosis of neuron in hippocampus region.

Objective To observe the influence of ginsenoside Rb3(GSRb3) on ?-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in brain tissue of rats with injury of hypoxia.Methods 20 rats were randomly divided into A, B, C, D and E group. The models of cerebral anoxia in group A and C were made by hypopiesia and hypoxia, and the models of hypoxia-reoxgenation were made in group B and D. 24 h and 1 h before establishment of models, ginsenoside Rb3 was injected peritoneally in rats of group C and D, respectively. The number and form of GABA-like immunoreactive neurons in hippocampus CA1 area of rats after brain hypoxia-reoxgenation were investigated with immunohistochemistry.Results (1)Compared with group E, GABA-like immunoreactive neuron density in CA1 area of group A and B decreased, presented with light staining and absence of prominency. GABA-like immunoreactive neuron density in CA1 area in group C and D was significantly higher than that in group A and B, but the shape was similar to group E. (2) The number of GABA-like immunoreactive neuron in CA1 area was 7.7?2.83 (group A), 10.1?2.08 (group B), 30.9?2.02 (group C), 33.1?4.2 (group D) and 16.9?1.05 (group E), respectively. The numbers were lower in group A and B than in group E, however higher in group C and D than in group E(all P

Objective CRT has gained acceptance as a useful form of device therapy for patients with refractory congestive heart failure. Despite recent technical advances, some problem still remained unsolved. The study highlighted some of these issues and try to provide possible solutions. Methods Since February 1999, about 50 patients underwent CRT. The CS lead was implanted with PTCA wire for dislodgment of lead in 3 patients. Injury of CS was present in 5 patients. Elevation in left ventricular pacing threshold was found in 2 patients who received early CRT. Results The patients who implanted the CS lead with PTCA wire acquired satisfactory capture threshold without any complication. Pace makers were implanted successfully in all 5 patients with CS injury The CS leads were extracted successfully from the 2 patients with elevated ventricular pacing threstold. Conclusion Implantation of the CS lead is a main step in the operation of CRT and prompt management to its related problems can enhance the operation success rate.

Objective To summarize the experience in one case of adult-to-adult combined liver-kidney transplantation.Method In Sep.2007,one case of adult-to-adult liver-kidney transplantation from the same living donor was performed on a patient with liver cirrhosis (liver failure decompensation) and chronic renal failure (uremia).There was a donation of the right liver with the middle hepatic vein and right kidney in the same time from the living donor.The piggyback liver transplantation and ectopic kidney transplantation were performed for the recipient.Basiliximab and methylprednisolone were given for immune induction therapy in operation.Tacrolimus,MMF and prednisone were given for anti-rejection.There were hepatoprotective treatment,anti-infection treatment and nutritional support for the donor and recipient after operation.The follow-up period has now been more than five years.Result The donor and the patient were smooth in the perioperative period.The liver and kidney function of the donor is well so far.There was no significant influence on quality of life of the donor.The transplanted liver and kidney function of the recipient is well so far.There were no significant complications for the recipient.Conclusion The living liver-kidney transplantation is an effective means for the treatment of liver and kidney failure.The safety can be ensured for the donors that donate the right liver and one kidney simultaneously.

ObjectiveTo summarize 20 ABO-incompatible liver transplantation cases in our hospital and explore the treatment strategy. MethodsFrom January 2009 to July 2011,20 cases donorrecipient ABO blood type not-identical liver transplantation was performed at our hospital. 16 cases were ABO-incompatible(ABO-Ⅰ) and 4 were ABO-compatible(ABO-C ).The median follow-up was (13.3 ± 9.2) months.ResultsExcept preoperative MELD score,there were no significant difference in other perioperative data,the incidence of postoperative complications and the cumulative survival rate between ABO-C and ABO-Ⅰ group.There were 5 deaths in 20 cases,2 cases in ABO-C group and 3 cases in ABO-Ⅰ group,survival rate was 75％.The cause of death was perioperative multiple organ failure in 2 cases,liver cancer recurrence in 2 cases and cerebral hemorrhage in 1 case.There were 2 cases of acute rejection,3 cases of biliary complications and 3 cases of portal vein thrombosis developing postoperatively. Eleven patients had increased serum creatinine after operation,preoperative high creatinine existed in 6 cases and it maintained posttransplant high level for more than 7 days,the serum creatinine level in other 7 patients was back to normal level in 7 days.ConclusionsA combination splenectomy before the portal vein reperfusion,the protocol of basiliximab,tacrolimus (TAC)/mycophenolate mofetil (MMF)/steroids immunosuppression treatment,postoperative peripheral vascular dilatation treatment by Alprostadil,help achieve favorable outcome in selected patients who underwent ABO-incompatible liver transplant.

AIM:To investigate the role of miR-125b in regulating the sensitivity of CD133+ colorectal cancer cells to cisplatin.METHODS:The expression of miR-125b was detected by RT-qPCR in the routine SW480 cells and CD133+ SW480 cells.Flow cytometry analysis was performed to measure the percentage of CD133+ cell population in the SW480 cell line treated with miR-125b and cisplatin.MTT assay was performed to evaluate the effect of miR-125b on the cisplatin-induced cell death in the CD133+ SW480 cells.Bioinformatics and Western blot were performed to determine whether the expression of HAX-1 was regulated by miR-125b.JC-1 staining, Annexin V staining and Western blot analysis were used to study the pathway of apoptosis in the CD133+ SW480 cells co-treated with miR-125b and cisplatin.RESULTS:The expression of miR-125b was significantly lower in the CD133+ SW480 cells than that in the routine SW480 cells and normal colonic epithelial FHC cells.Treatment with cisplatin alone increased the percentage of CD133+ SW480 cell population.However, miR-125b significantly inhibited the enrichment of CD133+ cell population induced by cisplatin.In addition, the results of MTT assay showed that the anti-tumor effect of cisplatin was significantly enhanced when the miR-125b was transfected into the CD133+ SW480 cells.The results of Western blot indicated that the HAX-1 gene was the target of miR-125b.Furthermore, the apoptosis induced by the combination of miR-125b and cisplatin was dependent on the dysfunction of mitochondrial membrane, leading to the release of cytochrome C into the cytoplasm and the subsequently activation of apoptosis in the CD133+ SW480 cells.CONCLUSION:miR-125b increased the sensitivity of CD133+ colo-rectal cancer cells to cisplatin by down-regulating the expression of HAX-1.

BACKGROUND:The anesthesia process is required strict in establishing rabbit models of ileal neobladder. It is required for cleaning operation field, quick postoperative recovery, and the choice of anesthetics and anesthesia does not influence smooth muscle peristalsis. OBJECTIVE:To compare the anesthetic effects between urethane and chloral hydrate in rabbits with ileal neobladder. METHODS:Eighteen rabbits were randomly assigned to urethane and chloral hydrate groups, and were respectively anesthetized with 20% urethane 5 mL/kg and 10% chloral hydrate 2 mL/kg through the ear vein. Double ureter was dissociated at 1 cm outside original bladder, and 15 cm-intestine obtained from 10 cm of ileocecal junction was implanted so as to establish models of ileal neobladder. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Heart rates were significantly lower compared with these before anesthesia in al cases (P≤ 0.05), but no differences were detected between two groups (P > 0.05). Compared with the chloral hydrate group, the maintain time and recovery time were longer and the mortality rate was higher in the urethane group. Above data indicated that chloral hydrate is a safe long-acting anesthetic in establishing rabbit models of ileal neobladder.
