[Objective] To observe the effects of pine pollen on the changes of p16INK4a and p21WAF1 in 2BS cells.[Method]The 2BS cells were cultured from 28 population doubling(PD)and divided equally into the young control group,old control group,middle-dose pine pollen group(120mg/dl)and high-dose pine pollen group(240mg/dl)randomly.Regulate the phases of cell cycle by flow cytometry,and then the expression of p16INK4a,p21WAF1 mRNA were determined by semi-quantitative RT-PCR.[Result]The amount of cells in G1 phase was depressed in middle-dose pine pollen group(72.73%?1.76%)and high-dose pine pollen group(64.15%?0.87%)than in old control group(81.33%?3.43%)noticeablely(P

Objective:To evaluate the influence of platelet-rich plasma(PRP) on periodontal healing of replanted teeth in 6 Beagle dogs.Methods:The second incisors were pulled out and re-implanted after 60 min dry storage.In group A,PRP were applied before replantation,and 7days later the teeth received root canal treatment.In group B,PRP were applied before replantation either,but without root canal treatment.In group C,PRP were not applied and 7 days later,the teeth received root canal treatment.In group D,no PRP were applied and no root canal treatment.All the dogs were sacrificed after 12 weeks and the histological parameters were observed.Results:There were no significant differences between group A and C.Group B showed a lower incidence of ankylosis,and higher incidence of healed PDL compared with group D.Conclusion:Under the definite condition,PRP can help to decrease the incidence of ankylosis and increase the incidence of healed PDL in groups that the pulps were not removed.

Objective To observe the effects of atorvastatin and cytokine signaling inhibitor AG490 on the residual liver function and the survival time of 90% hepatectomy rats. Methods Rats were divided randomly into three groups after surgery: control group without treatment; Ato group administrated with atorvastatin (20 mg?kg -1?d -1) through NG tube one day before and three days after the surgery and AG490 group, intraperitoneally given AG490 (1 mg?kg -1?12h -1) beginning intraoperatively for 4 times. The health status and liver regeneration were observed and recorded. Results All rats in control group died within 24 hours. Both atorvastatin and AG490 significantly prolonged the survival time of rats after surgery (25.6 h & 30.6 h vs. 10.7 h,P

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression of HPA, CK2beta and HIF-1alpha gene in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) tissues, and the correlation between their expression with the clinical characteristics of NPC and the relativity of HPA, CK2beta and HIF-1alpha gene in NPC tissues. METHOD: HPA, CK2beta and HIF-1alpha were detected with Super-Vision immunohistochemical method using antibody in 49 NPC specimens and 30 specimens with chronic nasopharyngitis tissue (CNT). RESULT: The expression of HPA, CK2beta and HIF-1alpha in NPC tissue were significantly higher than those in CNT tissue (P<0.05, separately). The expression of HPA, CK2beta and HIF-1alpha were significantly related to the TNM stage and whether recurrence or metastasis occur after treatment (P<0.05, separate ly), but there was no obvious correlation between its expression and the sex of NPC patient (P>0.05). The expression of HIF-1alpha was significantly related to the age of NPC patient (P<0.05), while HPA, CK2beta were not. The expression of HPA, CK2beta and HIF-1alpha in NPC tissue was positively correlated with each other (P<0.05, separately). CONCLUSION HPA, CK2beta and HIF-1alpha play synergetic role in development of NPC, which plays an important role in invasiveness,recurrence and metastasis of NPC. There could be a positive cooperation among HPA, CK2beta and HIF-1alpha in the carcinogenesis and development of NPC.

Objective To investigate changes of GP73 after hepatectomy and its correlations with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurrence. Methods Perioperative serum GP73 was monitored in hepatic hemangioma and HCC patients undergoing hepatectomy. Clinicopathologic features and follow-up results were collected to evaluate the relationship between serum GP73 level and patients' prognosis.Results There was no statistical difference between preoperative GP73 and postoperative GP73 in hepatic hemangioma group.While preoperative GP73 in HCC group was 9.9(3.7 - 15.8) relative unit (RU),and that on POD3 (postoperative day 3 ) was 9.1 ( 3.4 - 13.3 ) RU,on POD7 was 74.3 ( 1.7 - 9.0) RU,on POD14 was 3.3(2.1 -5.4) RU ( F =72.606,P ＜ 0.001 ).HCC recurred in 21 cases during follow-up,GP73 in recurrent cases [ 11.0 (8.4 - 13.8 ) RU ] was significantly higher than postoperative trough values while it was not different from their preoperative GP73 level [ 9.9 ( 2.9 - 15.0) RU ] ( Z =1.185,P ＞0.05). The preoperative GP73 level between recurrent subgroup and nonrecurrent subgroup was not significantly different (Z =- 1.546,P ＞ 0.05 ).Preoperative GP73 did not correlate to patients' survival.Conclusions Hepatectomy for HCC leads to a significant decrease of GP73 and postoperative HCC recurrence accompanies reelevation of GP73. GP73 could be used as a postoperative monitor for HCC recurrence.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for the rational use of antibiotics in outpatients who had genital tract Mycoplas-ma infections in Yulin area. METHODS:Using the integration culture plate,19 836 outpatient's specimens with suspected Myco-plasma infection from Yulin Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital during 2012 to 2014 were tested,and then the results of drug susceptibility test were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS:In the total of 19 836 inspected specimens,5 640 cases were positive with the rate of 28.4%. The positive rate of Ureaplasma urealyticum(Uu),Mycoplasma hominis(Mh),mixed(Uu+ Mh)infection were 88.0%,3.8% and 8.2% respectively. The positive rate of male patient with Mycoplasma infection was lower than female pa-tient(P<0.05). Male and female patients with positive maximum age respectively at the age of 25 to 40 (81.3%) and 20 to 35 years old(78.6%). From 2012 to 2014,Mycoplasma showed different degree of drug resistance to 9 kinds of antibiotics. In gener-al,the resistance rate of Uu to lincocin was close to 100%,Mh to erythromycin,roxithromycin and azithromycin were higher than 70%,and those of Uu+Mh were lower than 10% only to josamcine,minocycline and doxycycline. CONCLUSIONS:During 2012 to 2014,the rate of genital tract Mycoplasma infection in male and female outpatients of Yulin region increased year by year,and the infection mainly caused by Uu with a serious drug resistance. We should also pay attentions to the increase of Mh infection and mixed infection. Josamycin,minocycline and doxcycline can be used as a drug choice for empiric preferred treatment,and other an-tibiotics should be used based on antibiotics susceptibility test results.

AIM:To determine chlorogenic acid and hesperidin in Qingrehuoxue Mixture (Herba Artemisiae Scopariae, Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae, etc.) at the same time by HPLC. METHODS: A gradient method was set up with eluent of acetonitrile-water (0.4% phosphric acid). The detection wavelength of hesperidin was set at 283 nm, the detection wavelength of chlorogenic acid at 325 nm. RESULTS: The average recovery of two components were all above 95%, RSD was no more than 1.6%. The calibration curve was linear. CONCLUSION:The method is accurate and reliable with good reproducibility.

Objective To explore the imaging characteristics of intrathoracic extramedullary hematopoiesis(EMH).Methods Clinical and imaging findings of 6 cases with EMH were retrospectively analyzed,and the imaging characteristics,diagnosis and differential diagnosis were discussed.Results Among 6 the cases of EMH,3 lesions were located in mediastinum,and the other 3 lesions in mediastinum and adjacent chest wall.Five cases appeared as globular shadows which protruded toward the lung fields on X-ray films,on plain CT scan,all the 6 lesions appeared of smooth margin and homogeneous soft-tissue density,and the CT values ranged from 38 to 45 HU.Two lesions showed slight homogeneous enhancement on postcontrast CT scan using the common CT scanner,and the CT values ranged from 61 to 65 HU.Four lesions showed significant homogeneous enhancement on postcontrast CT images using the 16-slices CT,and the CT values ranged from 72 to 83 HU.On MRI images,4 lesions showed the same signal intensity as compared to adjacent muscles on T_1WI and T_2WI,and there was slight enhancement of the lesions after intravenous contrast administration.Conclusion EMH has specific imaging findings,and accurate diagnosis can be made by combining X-ray,CT and MR imaging findings with clinical history.
