Objective To detect the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) and bcl-2 ovarian serous carcinoma and their clinical significances. Methods Paraffin specimens including 61 cases of ovarian serous carcinoma and 50 normal ovarian tissues were selected. The expressions of HIF-1α and bcl-2 proteins were detected by immunohistochemical EnVision method and their relationship between them was analyzed. Results The positive rate of HIF-1α and bcl-2 proteins expression in 61 ovarian serous carcinoma was 68.9%and 54.1%, respectively. There was a significant difference between the two groups (χ2=55.381, P< 0.05; χ2= 38.493, P< 0.05). The clinical pathological parameters showed that the positive expression of HIF-1αand bcl-2 proteins were not related with the age (P>0.05). HIF-1αpositive expression was correlated with tumor grades, the state of lymph node metastasis and FIGO stages (χ2=4.931, 25.008, 5.610, P<0.05). Bcl-2 was significantly associated with tumor grades and lymph node metastasis (χ2= 6.956, 33.869, P<0.05), but not with FIGO stages (χ2=3.391, P>0.05). The expression of bcl-2 was positively correlated with HIF-1α in ovarian serous carcinoma (r= 0.304, P= 0.017). Conclusions The expressions of HIF-1α and bcl-2 play a synergic role in the progression of ovarian serous carcinoma. The combined detection of HIF-1αand bcl-2 is effective for patients'prognosis judgment.

Aim Toinvestigatetheanalgesiceffectsof epidural osthole application on the mechanical allodyn-ia and the ERK/MAPK signaling pathway and the expression of COX-2 mRNA in the spinal dorsal horn.Methods 125adultmaleSDratswererandomizedin-to five groups( n=25 each) :Blank, Sham, NP, Ost and vehicle. At postoperative day 6, 1mg/rat osthole 50 μl was injected epidurally into group Ost and the same volume of vehicle was given into group vehicle. The mechanical pain threshold was measured by 50%MWT at 1 day before operation and the 3 rd,6 th,7 th, 14 th,21 st day after operation. After the measurement of pain threshold on postoperative day 14 , the L4-6 segment of spinal dorsal horn was removed for determi-nation of the expression of ERK, pERK and COX-2 mRNAbyWesternblotandRT-PCR.Results Com-pared with blank group, the mechanical pain threshold was only down-regulated at day 1 after operation in sham group, the expression of pERK and COX-2 mR-NA in sham group showed no significant difference ( P>0. 05 ); the mechanical pain threshold was signifi-cantly down-regulated after operation in NP, Ost and vehicle groups( P<0. 05 ) and the expression of pERK and COX-2 mRNA was significantly increased ( P <0. 05). Compared with vehicle group, the pain thresh-old in Ost group was significantly increased after drug administration( P<0. 05 ) and the expression of pERK and COX-2 mRNA was significantly reduced ( P <0. 05 ) . The expression of ERK showed no significant difference among each group(P>0. 05). The correla-tion analysis on pERK1/2 and COX-2 mRNA revealed the Pearson correlation coefficient was 0 . 878 and 0 . 910 , suggesting a strong positive correlation between pERKandCOX-2mRNA.Conclusions Ostholead-ministrated in the early stage after surgery can alleviate the nucleus pulposus-induced radicular inflammatory pain probably by inhibiting the expression of pERK and COX-2 mRNA in spinal dorsal horn.

Objective To investigate the phenotype, genotype and molecular mechanisms in four Chinese pedigrees with venous thrombosis caused by hereditary PC deficiency. Methods The plasma activity of PC: A, TPS: A and FPS: A of the probands and their family members were detected with chromogenic and coagulation assay. The antigen of PC and FPS were identified with ELISA. Thrombin generation tests were applied to indicate the coagulation status. All of the nine exons and intron-exon boundaries of PC gene and PS gene were amplified by PCR and directly sequenced for mutaiton investigation. Results Compound heterozygous mutations of L-34P, K150del and A209V with 36% of PC: A and 57% of PC: Ag were identified in proband 1. PC: A was 46% , PC: Ag was 64. 4% while TPS: A, FPS: A and FPS: Ag were 36% , 19.5% and 20.9% respectively in proband 2. Two independent heterozygous mutations of R147W in PC gene inherited from his mother and T519stop in PS gene inherited from his father were identified. The anticoagulant activity of Proband 2 and his parents were declined in thrombin generation assay. In proband with PS defeciency and his father, the inhibition of thrombin generation capacity was decreased with exogenous APC, while his mother did not have significant difference. In Proband 3, PC: A was 32% while PC: Ag was 48.42% . Two independent mutations of R147W and R178W in Exon 7 were detected. Compound heterozygous mutations of R178W and D255H,with 21% of PC : A and 18. 36% of PC: Ag were identified in the Proband 4. Conclusions Hereditary PC deficiency or combined PC and PS deficiency result in venous thrombosis in four Chinese families. Mutants of L-34P, A209V, R178W, R147W and D255H might be the molecular mechanisms of PC deficiency.
