1.Abnormal expression of MiRNAs in nephroblastoma pathogenesis
Journal of Chinese Physician 2017;19(3):475-478
Wilms' tumor is the most common kidney tumor in childhood.MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are about the size of 19-22 nucleotide sequences that exist widely in the non-coding RNA in eukaryotes,function primarily through combination with mRNA target base pairing causing target mRNA degradation or inhibition of translation,and then develop his inhibiting or promoting the role of tumor.Abnormal expressions of miRNAs can cause a lot of kidney diseases,such as chronic kidney disease,polycystic kidney disease,renal fibrosis and renal cancer.Wilms'tumor,abnormal expression of key genomes,such as miR-17-92,miR-185,miR-204,miR-48 anomalies and tumors are closely related.Paper of miRNAs in incidence of Wilms'tumor expression,and the possible role for future targeted gene targeted drug sites are reviewed.

Objective To investigate the monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP1) gene expression of the bladder urothelial carcinoma and its correlation with the pathogenesis of the bladder urothelial carcinoma.Methods Thirty cases of patients with the bladder urothelial carcinoma, including 20 cases of male and 10cases of female, were taken the blood and bladder tissue.In control group, 30 cases of non-cancer patients,including 20 cases of male and 10 cases of female, were taken the blood samples.ELISA method was used to detected the concentration of plasma MCP1, immunohistochemical method to investigate the expression of MCP1 in the bladder urothelial carcinoma and adjacent tissues.Real-time quantitative RT-PCR was applied to detected the expression of MCP1. Data of the two groups were comparied and the relationship between the expression of MCP1 and the clinical characteristics of the bladder urothelial carcinoma was analyzed.Results MCP1 in group of patients with the bladder urothelial carcinoma was (193.4±105.7) pg/ml, and higher than that in non-tumor group (91.8±34.6) pg/ml (t = 8.37, P <0.001).MCP1 in invasive bladder cancer was (204.3±167.5) pg/ml and superficial bladder cancer was (130.6±69.2) pg/ml (t = 2.667, P = 0.013). By immunohistochemistry, the MCP-1 positive rate in the bladder urothelial carcinoma was 70.0 % (21/30), that in adjacent cancer tissue was 43.3 % (13/30) (χ2 = 4.9, P <0.05). The positive rate of MCP1 in invasive bladder cancer in tumor group was 80.0 % (8/10) and that in superficial bladder cancer was 65.0 %(13/20).At the same time, MCP- 1 positive intensity in the bladder urothelial carcinoma was significantly higher than that in adjacent tissues. The intensity in invasive bladder cancer was higher than that in superficial ones. Total RNA and mRNA levels of MCP-1 in the bladder urothelial carcinoma were statistically differences compared with that in adjacent tissues (χ2 = 10.08, P <0.05).Conclusion The upregulation of MCP1 gene expression is likely to play an important role in the incidence and metastasis of the bladder urothelial carcinoma.

Objective To evaluate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the diagnosis of deep anorectal abscess. Methods Twenty-one patients who were suspected of having deep anorectal abscess were admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine from January 2006 to December 2007, and their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. Phased-array coil MRI was applied to all patients before the operation. We compared the efficacy of MRI and rectal digital examination in the classification of deep anorectal abscess and the diagnosis rate of internal opening according to the postoperative results. All data were analyzed using the chi-square test. Results Nineteen patients were diagnosed with deep anorectal abscess, one patient had presacral cyst combined with infection and one patient had perianal mucinous adenocarcinoma. A total of 25 lesions were identified, including 14 ischiorectal abscesses, five pelvirectal abscesses, and six high intersphincteric abscesses. Thirteen patients had single space abscesses and six had multiple space abscesses. There were no significant differences in the diagnosis rate between MRI (12/19) and rectal digital examination for internal opening (13/19) (χ2 =0. 116, P>0.05). The accuracy rate was significantly different between MRI (25/25) and rectal digital examination (16/25) in the classification of deep anorectal abscess (χ2 = 10.970, P <0.05). Operative exploration revealed that there were 13 patients with single space abscesses and six with multiple space abscesses. The accuracy rate was significantly different between MRI (19/19) and the rectal digital examination (13/19) for detecting multiple space abscesses (χ2 =7. 125, P <0. 05). Conclusions MRI with a phased-array coil can accurately detect the extent of deep anorectal abscess and its relationship with anorectal sphincters. MRI examination is helpful in excluding potential lesions in the anorectal region.

As a kind of source wide,low inherent immnunogenicity multipotent stromal cells,mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been used to cell-based therapeutic researches of immunodeficient deseases or other severe clinical disorders.Despite low levels of engraftment in the injured lung,numerous preclinical trials indicate that mesenchymal stem cells can promote damaged tissue repair constructed by secreting paracrine factors to regulate the host immunity,inhibit inflammation and restore epithelial integrity.Acute lung injury(ALI) is a serious organ dysfunction occurred earliest and the most commonly affected organ.Currently there is no effective medicine therapy and the mortality remains high.Researches demonstrate MSCs can reduce alveolar edema,improve lung function and reduce motality.So understanding of the mechanism will be conductive to the MSCs from experimental stage into clinical application.This issue will put a brief overview pointed on the mechanism of mesenchymal stem cells in repairing the injured lung.

Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) with positive anti-contactin-associated protein-1 (Caspr1) antibody is a rare autoimmune antibody mediated peripheral neuropathy. A 62-year-old male patient was reported in this article, whose clinical manifestations were subacute onset, abnormal distal limb motor sensation, and increased cerebrospinal fluid protein level. The patient had a good response to plasma exchange. Electromyography of lower limbs showed that motor involvement was dominant, motor conduction velocity slowed down, compound motor active potential (CMAP) and sensory nerve active potential amplitude decreased, and F wave was not elicited; electromyography of upper limbs without symptoms showed that CMAP amplitude of median nerve decreased, and conduction velocity was normal. There are few reports of anti-Caspr1 positive CIDP in the world. The article summarized the characteristics of the patient and reviewed the relevant literature, in order to improve clinicians′ understanding and diagnosis and treatment ability of the disease.
