Methods Serum VEGF level of 55 nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients were measured by sandwich enzyme?- linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). 40 normal healthy volunteers served as control. Results Serum VEGF level of nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients was significantly higher than that of control group (P =0.000); Serum VEGF level was significantly higher in advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma stage (stage Ⅲ ~Ⅳ) than that in early stage(stageⅠ ~Ⅱ) (P =0.003); Serum VEGF level with nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients with lymphnode metastasis was significantly higher than that of patients without lymphnode metastasis. There was no significant relationship compared serum VEGF level in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patient's gender, age and pathological types. Conclusions Serum VEGF can be used as a marker of nasopharyngeal carcinoma for diagnosis and monitoring the progress and the prognosis of the disease.

Objective To investigate the protective effect and it's possible mechanism of Tanshinone ⅡA in radiation-induced pulmonary fibrosis.Methods Having the right hemithorax of female Wistar rats irradiated(30?Gy) in 10 fractions within 14 days by 6 ?MV photons,the radiation-induced pulmonary fibrosis animal model was established.In the treatment group,sodium Tanshinone ⅡA sulfonate(15?mg/kg) was given by intraperitoneal injection 1 hour before each fraction of irradiation.Five months after irradiation,the difference of the histopathological changes,the hydroxyproline content and expression of TGF-?1 between the radiation alone group,tanshinone plus radiation and control group were analyzed by HE stain,Massion stain,immunohistochemical methor and reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) method.Results The histopathological comparison revealed the protective effect of Tanshinone ⅡA.The content of hydroxyproline was(21.99?3.96),((38.25?)(7.18)),(28.94?4.29)??g/g in the control group,radiation alone group and radiation plus Tanshinone ⅡA.The expression of TGF-?1(mRNA and protein) was reduced by Tanshinone ⅡA.Pathological changes of the pulmonary fibrosis was reduced by Tanshinone ⅡA yet.Conclusions Our study shows that Tanshinone ⅡA can inhibit radiation-induced pulmonary fibrosis,and the possible mechanism of its may be made possible through down-regulating the expression of TGF-?1 in the irritated lung tissue.

Objective To investigate the correlation of serum anti-M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) antibody with laboratory parameters of idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) in adult patients with membranous nephropathy (MN),and to explore the role of anti-PLA2R antibody in the pathogenesis of IMN. Methods Forty-six adult patients with biopsy-proved glomerular diseases were involved in this study,including 20 cases with IMN,7 cases with IgA nephropathy (IgAN),6 cases with hepatitis B-associated membranous nephropathy (HBV-MN),6 cases with minimal change nephropathy (MCN),4 cases with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and 3 cases with class Ⅴ lupus nephritis.Total RNA was extracted from human glomeruli and was reversely transcribed to the first-strand cDNA.The full-length human M-type PLA2R was amplified by PCR and the 605 bp product was subcloned into eukaryotic expression vector containing CMV promoter.The recombinant human M-type PLA2R plasmid vector was transiently transfected into human embryonic kidney (HEK) 239T cell line using the FuGene6 transfection reagent.Western blotting was used to detect serum anti-PLA2R antibodies.Correlations of antiPLA2R antibody level with laboratory parameters,including serum albumin,total cholesterol,Scr and 24-hour urine protein,of IMN patients were evaluated. Results Among 20 cases with IMN,15 cases showed positive anti-PLA2R antibodies (positive rate 75％).Of 7 cases with IgAN and 6 cases with HBV-MN,only 1 case showed positive anti-PLA2R antibody respectively (positive rate 14.29％ and 16.67％ respectively).Anti-PLA2R antibody was negative in other patients.The positive rate of anti-PLA2R antibody in IMN patients was significantly higher than that in patients with secondary MN and other types of glomerlonephritis (all P＜0.01).Furthermore,anti-PLA2R antibody level was positively correlated with 24-hour urine protein(r=0.803,P＜0.01) and negatively correlated with serum albumin in IMN patients (r=-0.816,P＜0.01). Conclusions The high positive ratio of anti-PLA2R antibody may indicate that it is the specific autoantibody in IMN.AntiPLA2R antibody is correlated with IMN disease severity,which indicates that it may be the pathogenic autoantibody in IMN.
