Bnip3,a kind of mitochondrion apoptosis gene,belongs to the Bcl-2 gene family and BH3-only subfamily.It is one of the downstream response factors of hypoxia inducible factor (HIF).Bnip3 can induce cell apoptosis and autophagy under the oxygen deficit condition.Many studies show that Bnip3 is closely related to the occurrence,development and treatment of tumors.Molecular targeting treatment aimed at Bnip3 combined with chemoradiotherapy has preferable application foreground in tumor therapy.

The number of IPFI has increased in recent years because of the increasing of immunocompromised hosts due to abuse of antibiotics,glucocorticoids,immunosuppressants and all kinds of invasive operations,organ transplants.The mortality of IPFI remains highly because it's difficult to early diagnosis.Histopathologic biopsy remains as the gold standard for IPFI diagnosis although limited by materials.Imaging manifestations are nonspecific but have important suggestive values to some kinds of fungus.Direct examination is quickly but it's difficult to distinguish strain.Fungal culture can guide the treatment but its positive rate is low and the distinguish for contamination,infection and colonization is hard.Serological test has high sensitivity and specificity,but it cannot distinguish strain and it can yield false positives and false negative.Molecular biology is one of rapid developing methods,but its application is limited due to lack of standardized procedures and standards to assess its results,furthermore it can yield false positives.The proper diagnosis for IPFI relies on the comprehensive assessment combing with advantages and disadvantages of various methods.

Objective　To explore an objective and precise method of measuring the angles of human ears.Methods　Thirty cases (60 ears) were measured by CT.They were performed in position of Frankfort horizontal plane.Results　Auriculo-cranial is 45±14 degrees,cephaloconchal is 83±13 degrees,scaphaconchal is 92±4 degrees,and they are symmetric on both sides.The differences of the angles between men and women are not obvious,except auriculo-cranial angle.Conclusion　The measurement of human auricular angles with CT is a useful and practical method in anthropology and aesthetic medicine.

ObjectiveTo investigate the context-sensitive half-times of etomidate. Methods Twenty patients ( ASA Ⅰ - Ⅱ ) underwent selective thoracic operation were divided into 2 groups by random digits table with 10 cases each,the patients were allocated to receive either continuous infusion etomidate 10μg/(kg·min) for 1 h(Gl group) or continuous infusion etomidate 10 μg/(kg·min) for 2 h(G2 group) of maintenance anesthesia. The samples were collected at the following time points: 1 min before stop infusion,2,5, 10,15,20,30,40,50 and 60 min after stop infusion. The plasma concentrations of etomidate were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography and the changes of the context-sensitive half-times of etomidate were calculated. ResultsThe context-sensitive half-times of etomidate was ( 17.1 ± 13.1 )min in G1 group and (21.7 ± 15.1 ) min in G2 group. There was no significant difference between two groups (P＞0.05). ConclusionThe context-sensitive half-times of etomidate is short and its pharmacokinetic profile is suitable for continuous infusion.

Objective To study the adverse effect of amatoxins on DNA in the histiocytes of rats and the antagonism of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Methods SD rats were randomly divided into three groups, the number of males and females was the same. The rats in the experimental groups were respectively treated with amatoxins(0.1 mg/kg bw, i.p.) and amatoxins added EPA, DHA (both were 10 mg/kg bw, i.p.) for 10 days. Single cell gel-electrophoresis was employed to test the damage of DNA in the histiocytes. Results In the group treated with amatoxins, DNA damage in the peripheral lymphocyte, hepatocytes, lung cells ,brain cells was more seriously compared with the control, but no significant DNA damage was seen in the group treated with amatoxins added EPA, DHA. Conclusion Amatoxins may induce DNA damage and eicosapentaenoic acid, docosahexaenoic acid have an antagonism to the adverse effect of amatoxins.

Objective To investigate the effects of Lycopene ( LP) on immune function of ovarian cancer rats′and its mechanism .Metho ds Sixty ovarian cancer rat models made by injecting ovarian cancer cell line NUTU-19 were divided into five groups randomly:model group,Cisplatin group(2 mg/kg)and LP(40,20,10 mg/kg)group,n =12;the LP and Cisplatin were given by intraperitoneal injection ,once every two days for 5 times.The rats general states and tumor growth conditions were observed ,the tumor tissue morphological changes was observed by H&E staining;the tumor weight ,inhibition rate,spleen lymphocyte transformation rate were de -tected;and the content of IL -2 and TNF-αin serum were detected .The present of CD4 +,CD8 +in blood were detected and the ratio of CD 4 +/CD8 +was calculated .Results The food situation of the rats in LP groups was improved,tumor was reduced,activity and hardness were poorer ,necrosis presented ,tumor cell shrinkage and oth-er pathological morphological changes appeared ,especially the rats in LP 40 mg/kg group .Compared with model group,the tumor weight in LP(40,20 mg/kg)groups was decreased,the inhibition rate and the spleen lymphocyte transformation rate were increased;the contents of IL-2 and TNF-αwere decreased;the CD8+present was de-creased,while the CD4 +present in LP 40 mg/kg group was increased,the ratio of CD4 +/CD8 +was increased. All of the difference above were significant (P<0.05,P<0.01).Conclusion LP can effectively improve the immune function of ovarian cancer rat;which perhaps relates to its effects of reducing the inflammatory cytokines levels and increasing the ratio of CD 4 +/CD8 +.

The effect of chitin on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) injured by oxygen free radicals was investigated in vitro. The degree of injury was determined by the amount of malondialdehyde (MDA) and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) in the culture medium. The results indicated that chitin could reduce the amount of MDA and LDH significantly, showing that chitin could protect HUVECs from oxygen free radicals injury.

Objective To investigate the ultrastructural features and it's significance of the skip area with giant cell arteritis(GCA).Methods 20 GCA patients and 7 non-GCA patients underwent temporal artery biopsies. The sections were stained with HE and methylene blue(MB) for light microscopy(LM), doubly stained with uranyl acetate and lead curate for electron microscopy (EM). 20 GCA patients were divided into skip area GCA group(14 cases) and active inflammatory cell infiltration GCA group(6 cases) according to the definition of skip area or skip lesion. The ultrastructural changes of each group were observed by EM and assessed by using 4 grades from 0 to 3 scores.Results The scores of ultrastructural changes were as follows: the skip area GCA group, 0 in 1 patient, 2 to 6 in 9 patients, and 8 to 9 in 4 patients; the active inflammatory cell infiltration GCA group, 7 to 15 in 6 patients; the non-GCA group, 0 to 1 in 6 patients, and 5 in 1 patient. The scores of the three groups were tested by H check, the difference was evidently significant( P0.05) in comparison with active inflammatory cell infiltration GCA group.Conclusions At electron microscopic level, the skip area of temporal artery biopsy with GCA showed obvious pathological changes, especially in the intima of artery. The results suggest that the investigation of ultrastructure features of the skip areas of temporal artery with GCA may be benefit for the diagnosis and treatment of this disease.
