Objective To observe the effect of a new cell delivery tool(MSC exo)on the proliferation of pancreatic cancer by transferring targeted genes.Methods Transmission Electron Microscope(TEM)and Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis(NTA)were used to identify human mesenchymal stem cell exosomes(MSC-exo)and transport miR-450a-5p into CFPAC-1,to explore the effect of miR-450a-5p targeting BZW2 on inhibiting the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells.Results The expression of miR-450a-5p was low in pancreatic cancer tissue(P<0.05),and the expression of CD63 and TSG101 of MSC-exo-miR-450a-5p in CFPAC-1 cells was higher than that of MSC-exo by Western blot(P<0.05).CCK-8 and EdU results showed that MSC-exo-miR-450a-5p significantly inhibited the proliferation of CFPAC-1 cells(P<0.05).Cell scratch and Transwell experiments showed that MSC-exo-miR-450a-5p can inhibit the migration and invasion of CFPAC-1 cells(P<0.05).Through dual luciferase assay,it was confirmed that miR-450a-5p targets BZW2,and RT-qPCR and Western blotting showed a negative correlation(P<0.05)between miR-450a-5p and BZW2 expression.Overexpression of BZW2,CCK-8,EdU,cell scratch,and Transwell experiments confirmed that pc-BZW2 reversed the anti-cancer function of MSC-exo-miR-450a-5p on CFPAC-1.Western blot detected PCNA,Ki-67,MMP2,MMP9,and the results were consistent with the above experiments(P<0.05).Conclusion hMSC exo is a new delivery system,targeting BZW2 to transport miR-450a-5p to inhibit the biological malignancy of pancreatic cancer cells,which provides an important clue for the research of targeted treatment of pancreatic cancer.

Objective:To explore the application effect of Sihuang Powder application on Yongquan Point in patients undergoing hip and knee replacement.Methods:The convenient sampling method was used to select 172 patients after hip and knee replacement in Yantai Mountain Hospital from October 2021 to August 2022 as the research objects. They were divided into the control group ( n=85) and the experimental group ( n=87) by the random number table method. Patients in the control group were treated with routine nursing intervention, while patients in the experimental group were treated with Sihuang Powder application on Yongquan Point on the basis of control group. The fibrinogen content and D-dimer before and after intervention, the incidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in lower limbs during hospitalization and the length of postoperative hospitalization were compared between the two groups. Results:On the thrid day after operation, fibrinogen content and D-dimer level of the experimental group were lower than those of control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P< 0.05). The incidence of DVT during hospitalization in the experimental group was 5.75% (5/87), lower than 15.29% (13/85) in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The postoperative hospitalization days in the experimental group was shorter than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Applying Sihuang Powder to Yongquan Acupoint can effectively improve blood hypercoagulability, reduce the incidence of lower limb DVT in patients after hip and knee replacement surgery, reduce postoperative complications and effectively shorten the length of hospital stay.

The 78 patients admitted from April to July 2023 were set as the control group and they were given the conventional nursing model, while 78 patients admitted from August to October 2023 were set as the observation group and they were given green channel nursing mode based on the information intelligent platform on the basis of the control group. The rescue time and quality of patients were compared between two groups.Results:The establishment time of venous channel, medication application time, completion time of CT examination and stay time in emergency room in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group, and the scores of all dimensions of nursing quality were all higher than those in control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01) . Conclusions:The green channel nursing model based on the information intelligent platform can improve the rescue time and nursing quality of emergency trauma patients, which has certain clinical significance.

Objective To explore the CT manifestations of primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) of adrenal gland,aiming to increase the cognition on this disease.Methods The CT manifestations of 7 patients who were pathologically diagnosed with adrenal gland PNET were analyzed retrospectively.Results The age of patients was 24-63 years old,with average age of (47.6±13.7) years,including 6 females and 1 male.Location of PNET:4 in left adrenal gland and 3 in right adrenal gland.Clinical manifestations:3 cases had upper abdominal distension,2 cases suffered from pain of waist and back,1 case was discovered in physical examination and another 1 had fever.No abnormality was found in laboratory and endocrinological examinations.After operation,4 cases had recurrence and 2 had distant metastasis.During follow-up,6 patients died and only 1 still alive.CT showed that the tumor,whose maximum diameter was 10.1-19.4 cm,was elliptic or lobulated in shape.The tumor was clear in boundary in 2 patients,but was unclear in boundary and involved adjacent organs in 5 patients.The plain scanning showed equidensity or slightly low density,complicated with necrosis and cystic lesions without calcification.The enhanced scanning suggested progressive uneven enhancement,with multiple interatrial septum-like changes and latticed enhancement inside.Conclusion CT manifestations of adrenal gland PNET can prompt the diagnosis,pathological examination is still required for confirmation.CT can accurately describe the internal structures,adjacent relationship and the metastasis of tumors.

Objective To investigate the imaging findings of giant cell glioblastoma(GCG).Methods Imaging findings of 8 cases with pathology-confirmed GCG were retrospectively reviewed and correlated with pathologic findings.Results All of the 8 cases were located in the cerebral hemisphere.On CT images, 1 lesion case was shown appeared as mixed density,4 lesions were shown as cystic and solid mass.Mural nodule were slightly hyperdense.On MRI images, all of 4 cases lesions were hypointensity on T1WI, mixed signal intensity or hyperintensity on T2WI and FLAIR, low signal intensity on DWI.The lesion showed nonuniform enhancement,with enhanced mural nodules and cyst walls,and mildmoderate or no peritumoral edema.Microscopically, the cells were arranged in perivascular pseudorosettes to form palisades.Cellular pleomorphism was a typical feature, including monstrous and multinucleated giant cells.Mitotic figures were usually numerous.Reticulin was abundant in the stroma.Immunohistochemistry showed staining for S-100, Vim, p53, GFAP.The proliferation rate determined by Ki-67 immunohistochemistry was 30%.Conclusion GCG has certain imaging characteristics,CT and MRI are effective in detecting the disease.

OBJECTIVETo explore the optimal time of acupuncture intervention in the assisted reproduction.

METHODSOne hundred and twenty female mice and 60 male mice were collected. 20 female mice were selected in the natural period group and the rest 100 female mice were prepared as the model of controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH). The model mice were randomized into a COH group, a down-regulation group, a gonadotropins (Gn) start group, an injection of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) group and an embryo culture group, 20 mice in each one. The donor mice and receptor mice were subdivided in each group, 10 mice in each subgroup. One week before the experiment, vas deferens ligature was done in 30 male mice and the other 30 male mice did not receive ligature. In the down-regulation group, the Gn start group, the HCG injection group and the embryo culture group, electroacupuncture (EA) was applied to "Guanyuan" (CV 4), "Zhongji" (CV 3) and "Sanyinjiao" (SP 6) at the time points accordingly. EA stimulation was in the condition of continuous wave, 2 Hz and 1 mA. No inter-vention was given in the natural period group and the COH group. On the day of HCG injection, the donor mice and the non-ligatured male mice were put in the same cage of each group. The fertilized ovum was collected with the date of fertilization marked and was fostered in the incubator. At the ratio of 1:1, the receptor mice and ligatured mice were put in the same cage in each group. The vaginal plug was examined in the next morning. The pseudopregnancy was marked with the date of plug observed. In the 68th hour of embryo culture, the embryo of the donor was shifted to the receptor on the same day when the plug was observed. The clinical pregnancy rate and embryo imbed site number were observed. RT-PCR assay was adopted to determine the expression of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) mRNA in endometrium.

RESULTSIn the COH group, the pregnancy rate, average imbed site number and endometrial IGF-1 mRNA expression were all significantly lower than those in the natural period group (all<0.01). After EA treatment, in the Gn group, the HCG injection group and the embryo culture group, the pregnancy rates were higher significantly than those in the COH group (<0.05,<0.01). In the HCG injection group, the average imbed site number and IGF-1 mRNA expression were increased apparently as compared with those in the COH group (both<0.01), better than those in the Gn group and the embryo culture group (all<0.01).

CONCLUSIONSIn the treatment with acupuncture combined with IVF-ET for infertility, the intervention of acupuncture on the day of HCG injection is the optimal time point. It increases the secretion of endometrial IGF-1 so as to improve the clinical pregnancy rate, the mean imbed site number and the embryo implantation.

Objective To explore the relationship between the soil components along the areas of the east route of the South?to?North Water Diversion Project and the survival situation of Oncomelania hupensis snails. Methods Four study sites were se?lected along the project,and soil samples were collected to analyze the components. The amounts of components among the dif?ferent study sites were compared statistically. Results Except zinc,sodium,and phosphorus,the contents of the soil compo?nents where the snails survived were different from those where snails were dead(t=-19.150 to 12.810,all P<0.01). Howev?er,the logistic regression analysis did not obtain a model with statistical significance. Conclusions O. hupensis snails live in the soil with adequate organic matter and neutral pH value. Along with the global warming and the operation of the South?to?North Water Diversion Project,O. hupensis snails may survive in the northern area,and therefore,the surveillance work should be strengthened.

BACKGROUND:Until now, it is stil unclear whether the stem cel transplantation triggersadverse effects on the myocardial electrical activity, resulting in the emergence of arrhythmia.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of intracoronary transplantation of umbilical cord blood stem cels on arrhythmia score and incidence of ventricular arrhythmia.
METHODS:According to therapeutic strategies, 73patients with coronary heart disease were assigned to receive drug therapy in control group (n=38) and umbilical cord blood stem cel transplantation in observation group (n=35). Arrhythmia score, incidence of ventricular arrhythmia and adverse reactions were recorded and analyzed before and 1, 4, 8 weeks after transplantation.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After treatment, arrhythmia scores were significantly reduced in the two groups, especialy in the observation group, to exhibit a continuous decline trend (P< 0.05). Compared with the control group, the incidence of ventricular arrhythmia was significantly lower in the observation (P< 0.05). However, there were no significant changes in the blood pressure, heart rate and blood oxygen saturation before and after transplantation, and no acute heart failure and death occurred in thetwo groups. These results suggest that the intracoronary transplantation of umbilical cord blood stem cels exhibits superiorities in the treatment of coronary artery disease, significantly reducing the arrhythmia score, reducing the incidence of ventricular arrhythmia, and resulting in less adverse reactions.

Background and purpose:Overexpression of inhibitor of protein phosphatase 2 A-2 (I2PP2A) in many tumors including gastric cancer suggests that I2PP2A may contribute to the development of gastric cancer. To further study the biological function of I2PP2A and its role in gastric cancer, we established a BGC823 cell line for stable expression of shRNA targeting human I2PP2A gene. Methods: A double-stranded shRNA targeting the I2PP2A was designed, synthesized and was inserted into a lentivirus vector (pGLV2), and the insertion was identiifed by restriction endonuclease analysis and DNA sequencing. BGC823 cells were then transfected with the packaged recombinant lentivirus, and resistant cell clones were selected with puromycin. The expression of I2PP2A was examined using real-time PCR (RT-PCR) and Western blot. Results:Sequencing result proved that recombinant lentivirus vector pGLV2-shRNA-I2PP2A was constructed correctly. RT-PCR and Western blot results conifrmed that the expression of I2PP2A was signiifcantly down-regulated in this infected BGC823 cell line. The efifciency of siRNA interference of I2PP2A could be up to about 90%. Conclusion:A lentiviral vector carrying a shRNA targeting the I2PP2A gene is successfully constructed, and a BGC823 cell line stably expressing I2PP2A shRNA is established with this lentiviral system.
