miR-26b通过调节Notch1信号通路参与原发性肝细胞肝癌侵袭的机制研究

目的:探讨miR-26b参与原发性肝细胞肝癌（HCC）侵袭的机制。方法:在细胞培养液中培养人肝细胞系HL-7702和HCC细胞各系Hepb-3、HuH-7、MHCC97-L、MHCC97-H。实时荧光定量PCR法（qRT-PCR）检测miR-26b的表达水平；用miR-26b mimics、miR-26b inhibitors和Notch1-siRNA分别转染HCC细胞；MTT实验检测转染后HCC细胞的活力；采用Western blot检测Notch1受体蛋白表达水平的变化；Transwell小室测定不同处理后的HCC细胞的侵袭能力。结果:人正常肝细胞系HL-7702和HCC细胞系Hepb-3、HuH-7、MHCC97-L、MHCC97-H中的miR-26b相对表达含量随其侵袭和迁移能力的升高而依次下降；抑制miR-26b的表达，Notch1受体蛋白表达明显增高，而此时HCC细胞的侵袭性显著增强；相反，上调miR-26b的表达，Notch1受体蛋白表达明显降低，而HCC细胞侵袭性显著下降；miR-26b可能通过调控Notch1信号通路调节HCC细胞侵袭性。结论:miR-26b通过负调控Notch1信号通路抑制HCC细胞侵袭能力，为HCC侵袭的机制奠定了理论基础，miR-26b可能成为HCC治疗的新靶点。     

Infective Endocarditis Due to Treponema pallidum: A Case Diagnosed Using Polymerase Chain Reaction Analysis of Aortic Valve

Syphilis is a sexually transmitted disease caused by Treponema pallidum. Syphilitic aortitis might coexist in a dysfunctional aortic valve, but the etiology remains unclear, because microbiological diagnosis is difficult. A 62-year-old man with low-grade fever was diagnosed with aortitis and infective endocarditis, due to Treponema pallidum infection, using polymerase chain reaction analysis. This case suggests that syphilis might cause infective endocarditis.     

膝关节前外侧韧带的研究进展

目的对膝关节前外侧韧带（anterolateral ligament，ALL）的研究进展进行综述，为临床诊治提供参考。方法广泛查阅近年来国内外有关 ALL 损伤诊断及治疗的文献，总结膝关节 ALL 解剖形态、生物力学以及 ALL 损伤机制、治疗现状。结果膝关节 ALL 具有限制胫骨内旋及前移作用，影响膝关节轴移。ALL 损伤后可结合患者体征和 MRI 检查诊断。膝关节 ALL 手术指征尚未统一，但多数学者倾向于对需进行前交叉韧带（anterior cruciate ligament，ACL）重建或翻修且伴有高度轴移试验阳性的患者进行 ALL 重建。目前 ALL 重建方式较多，但尚无最佳治疗术式。此外，由于缺乏高质量的术后长期随访研究，远期临床疗效仍不明确。结论ALL 在维持膝关节稳定性方面具有一定作用，但 ALL 重建技术及临床疗效仍待进一步研究。     

枯草杆菌Bacillus sp F26产过氧化氢酶的发酵条件

从内蒙古呼伦贝尔草原的盐碱湖中分离到的一株低度嗜盐嗜碱细菌Bacillus sp F26，能积累高水平过氧化氢酶（CAT）。对Bacillus sp F26发酵产过氧化氢酶的环境与营养条件的研究结果表明，其积累高水平过氧化氢酶的适宜环境条件为：温度37℃，种龄20-22h，接种量5％，装液量50mL／（250mL的摇瓶）。适宜发酵培养基组成（g／L）为：葡萄糖15，牛肉膏10，玉米浆10，酵母膏5，磷酸二氢钾1，氯化镁0．2，氯化钠50，碳酸钠10。采用上述条件进行摇瓶分批发酵实验，发酵20h，过氧化氢酶酶活达到16．32U／mL，细胞干重为4．12g／L。进一步研究发现，在对数生长后期（16h）添加2mmol／L的H2O2可以明显刺激产酶，在5L的发酵罐上进一步以指数速率方式流加H2O2，由于该流加方式可降低H2O2对细胞的毒害作用，过氧化氢酶酶活达到29．89U／mL，与分批发酵相比提高了92．8％。

Electrochemotherapy significantly inhibits the growth of colon 26 tumors in mice

Electrochemotherapy is a novel antitumor treatment involving the systemic administration of bleomycin followed by the delivery of electrical pulses to the tumor. The present study investigates the effects of electrochemotherapy on the growth of colon 26 cells inoculated subcutaneously into the backs of BALB/c mice. The mice were divided into the following four experimental groups: 20 that received no further treatment after the inoculation of colon 26 cells (control group); 20 that received 500 μg of bleomycin intraperitoneally 7 and 9 days after the inoculation (BLM group); 20 that received electric pulses to the tumor 7 and 9 days after the inoculation (EP group); and 30 that received electrochemotherapy 7 and 9 days after the inoculation (ECT group). During 28 days of observation, no deaths due to tumor progression occurred in the ECT group, but there were 18 in the control group, 11 in the BLM group, and 18 in the EP group. While weight loss was observed in all groups, it was most remarkable in the control group. Tumor growth was significantly inhibited in the ECT group, compared to the other experimental groups (P<0.01). The results of this study demonstrated that electrochemotherapy significantly inhibited the growth of colon 26 tumors in mice, without causing any remarkable adverse effects.     

Central effects of systemic lidocaine mediated by glycine spinal receptors: an iontophoretic study in the rat spinal cord

The objective of this investigation was to demonstrate the possible interactions of systemic lidocaine (lido) with inhibitory receptors in the spinal cord. In the lumbar dorsal horn of anesthetized and curarized rats, 60 physiologically identified, wide dynamic range (WDR) neurons, were recorded extracellularly. Glutamate, glycine and its selective antagonist, strychnine, were iontophoretically applied onto the neurons either singularly or concurrently. The effects of systemic lido on the drug-induced frequency changes and the interaction with the glycine receptors, using strychnine as a probe, were studied. It was consistently found that (i) lido (3–4 mg/kg) inhibited the excitatory responses to iontophoretic glutamate, (ii) this inhibition was significantly antagonized by concurrent iontophoretic strychnine, (iii) iontophoretic glycine induced comparable glutamate inhibition that was reversed by strychnine. In contrast, no effect on glutamate-induced excitations was observed when lido was applied by micropressure or a different local anesthetic was systemically administered. The results suggest that central inhibitory effects of lido could by mediated by spinal strychnine-sensitive glycine receptors, activated by lido itself or possibly by its glycine residue-bearing metabolites.     

CD26及半乳糖凝集素3免疫组织化学染色在甲状腺癌诊断中的应用

目的探讨CD26／DPPⅣ、半乳糖凝集素3免疫组织化学染色及其联合检测在甲状腺癌诊断中的应用价值。方法采用免疫组织化学EnVision二步法检测了114例良恶性甲状腺肿瘤组织中CD26／DPPⅣ及半乳糖凝集素3的表达。结果CD26／DPPⅣ及半乳糖凝集素3在正常甲状腺组织中无表达，在甲状腺腺瘤及滤泡癌中少有表达，在大多数甲状腺乳头状癌中呈不同程度的阳性表达。相对于甲状腺腺瘤而言，CD26／DPPⅣ诊断乳头状癌的敏感性、特异性、诊断准确率、阳性预测值、阴性预测值及kappa值分别为86．8％、97．2％、90．4％、98．3％．79．5％及0．80，半乳糖凝集素3分别为97．1％、91．7％、95．2％、95．7％、94．3％及0．89。结论CD26／DPPⅣ及半乳糖凝集素3均是甲状腺乳头状癌较为可靠的标志物，可以辅助常规的病理检查进行乳头状癌与腺瘤的鉴别诊断，它们在甲状腺滤泡癌诊断中的应用价值尚有待于进一步的研究。     

A Five-year study of Hudron root canal fillings

A prospective clinical and radiographic study was conducted in order to compare Hydron and laterally condensed gutta-percha/AH-26 root canal fillings. Paralleling technique periapical radiographs were taken preoperatively, postoperatively and at recall appointments at post-treatment intervals of 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years and 5 years. Clinical examination at the recall appointments revealed no adverse signs or symptoms amongst all the patients who attended (mean attendance 44.5% at each interval). Radiographs were scored according to the periapical status of the treated root, and comparable bone healing rates were observed between the two root-filling materials. Among the patients attending recall appointments, there were no radiographic signs of failure of any of the 39 gutta-percha/AH-26 root canal fillings. However, three of the 35 canals filled with Hydron were classified as failures, and four required further assessment after the 5-year recall appointment. This study indicated that Hydron and gutta-percha/AH-26 root canal fillings were well accepted but, on the basis of radiographic assessment, success with gutta-percha/AH-26 was more predictable.
