OBJECTIVE To compare the effects of leuprorelin and mifepristone on sex hormone levels, ovarian function, adverse reactions, and recurrence in patients with endometriosis (EMs) after surgery. METHODS A total of 178 patients who underwent surgical treatment for EMs in Ji’an Central People’s Hospital from September 2021 to September 2023 were randomly divided into the leuprorelin group and the mifepristone group, with 92 cases in each group. Medication was initiated on days 1 to 5 of the first menstrual cycle following surgery. Patients in the leuprorelin group received subcutaneous injections of Leuprorelin acetate microspheres, 3.75 mg per time, once every four weeks, for a total of 6 injections. Patients in the mifepristone group took 12.5 mg of Mifepristone capsules orally once daily for six consecutive months. Visual analog scale (VAS), serum sex hormone levels [follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), and estradiol (E2)], ovarian function indicators [anti- Müllerian hormone (AMH), antral follicle count (AFC)], and T helper 1 cell (Th1)/Th2 shift markers [interferon-γ (IFN-γ), interleukin 2 (IL-2), IL-4, and IL-10] were compared between the two groups before surgery and after treatment. Incidence and outcome of adverse reactions and recurrence within one year were also compared between the two groups. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences in baseline indicators between the two groups before surgery (P>0.05). After treatment, both groups showed significantly lower VAS scores for chronic pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea and dyspareunia, and significantly reduced serum FSH, LH, E2, IL-4 and IL-10 levels compared to before surgery (P<0.05), while serum IFN-γ and IL-2 levels were significantly increased (P<0.05); the leuprorelin group showed significantly greater improvements than the mifepristone group in all these indicators (P<0.05). After treatment, serum AMH levels in both groups were significantly lower than before surgery levels, while AFC was significantly increased (P<0.05); the leuprorelin group had significantly higher serum AMH levels and more AFC compared to the mifepristone group (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the incidence of adverse reactions and outcome rates between the two groups (P>0.05). During one year of follow-up after discontinuation, the recurrence rate in the leuprorelin group was significantly lower than in the mifepristone group (1.15% vs. 10.99%, P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Both leuprorelin and mifepristone are effective therapeutic drugs for EMs, but the former has advantages in alleviating pain, regulating serum sex hormone levels, protecting ovarian function, regulating immune function and reducing recurrence rates.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the mobilization and collection of unrelated allogeneic peripheral blood stem cells. Methods The suitable stem cell mobilization plan was made in accordance with the hematopoietic stem cell mobilization plan of China Marrow Donor Program, the ruler of the hospital, and the donor's constitution. The unrelated allogeneic peripheral blood stem cells of 64 healthy donors were collected in the second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from May 2012 to January 2017. The donor was infected one or several times with the mobilization agent granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) by 5-10 μg·kg-1·d-1. After 3-4 days, peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cells were collected using COBE Spectra blood cell separator. Then, the effect and adverse reaction of donors were analyzed from different age and sex. Results It can achieve the acquisition requirements using 3 or 4 days of mobilization programs, mononuclear cells≥5.0×108/kg, CD34+cells≥2.0×106/kg. The single acquisition success rate (the target acquisition of the number of mononuclear cells and CD34+) up to 65 %, collection efficiency reached 52%, which could reduce the risk of donor and the cost of patients. The quality of donor stem cell of young was better than that of older persons. Sixteen donors (25%) had mild adverse reactions, and no special treatment was required. Conclusions Allogeneic stem cell mobilization is safe. Starting from save medical resources and the interests of the donor the 3 day or 4 days of mobilization scheme could improve the success rate of the single mobilization. During the collection process, the condition of donor hypocalcemia should be observed and health education should be given to relieve the tension of donor.

Objective To analyze the effect of miR-497 high expression on the gene expression profile of colon cancer cell line HCT116. Methods MiR-497 high expressing colon cancer cell model HCT116-497 and negative control HCT116-CON were established by lentiviral transduction. The human (V2) gene expression microarray was used to identify genes that were differentially expressed between colon cancer cells overexpressing miR-497 and the controls. The candidates were subjected to the gene ontology (GO) and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis by Molecule Annotation System 3.0 (MAS3.0). The differential expression of representative genes relative to inflammation were confirmed by real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Results Of all the differently expressed genes, 582 genes were down-regulated by at least 3-folds, which were enriched in inflammation-related signaling pathways in colon cancer cells overexpressing miR-497. The decrease in 15 representative genes was validated by qPCR. Compared with those in HCT116-CON cells, expressions of 10 genes in HCT116-497 cells, including CACNB1, FOS, IL-29, RPS6KA2, TNFSF15, IL-11, INHBC, CSF1R, JAK3 and IL-2Rβ, were decreased significantly, and there were statistical differences (all P< 0.05) Conclusion MiR-497 inhibits the mRNA expression of inflammation-related genes in colon cancer cell line HCT116.
