ABSTRACT
Objective To provide guidance for clinical prevention and treatment of bleeding during percutaneous nephrolithotomy( PC-NL) . Methods The clinical data of 1 012 patients with intraoperative and postoperative bleeding during percutaneous nephrolithotomy in our urology department were collected,hemorrhoea occurred on 36 cases,the occurrence rate was 3. 56%. The incidence,correlation with cal-culi,diabetes mellitus,examination item,technical operation were analyzed and compared. Results The incidence was 5. 52% for patients with complicated calculi. The incidence of delayed massive haemorrhage has been increased postoperatively in the diabetes mellitus patients. This incidence was 1. 81% for patients with preoperative examination. Along with the extension of time in carrying out technology,PCNL asso-ciated bleeding incidence decreased year by year. Conclusion The occurrence of haemorrhage associated with PCNL could be decreased by correctly handling complicated calculi,preoperative examination,keeping blood glucose homeostasis and improving the manipulation ability of operator.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>To investigate the effects of cisplatin on proliferation, telomerase activity, cell cycle, p53, bcl-2 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) expressions of human lung adenocarcinoma SLC-89 cells induced by cisplatin and to find out the possible mechanisms.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>SLC-89 cells were treated with cisplatin of different concentrations for 72 h. Then, the proliferation of the cells was measured by MTT method, telomerase activity was measured by telomeric repeat amplification protocol with ELISA (TRAP-ELISA), and cell cycle, p53, bcl-2 and PCNA expressions of the cells were detected by flow cytometry (FCM) respectively.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Cisplatin could obviously inhibit the proliferation of the cells, and IC₅₀ value for cisplatin treatment was 18.47 mg/L. Cisplatin could obviously down-regulate telomerase activity, decrease S phase cells, increase G₀/G₁ phase cells, decline the expressions of bcl-2 and PCNA proteins and induce the expression of p53 protein of SLC-89 cells in a concentration-dependent fashion.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Cisplatin can obviously inhibit the proliferation of SLC-89, change the distribution of cell cycle, decline telomerase activity and expressions of bcl-2 and PCNA proteins, and induce expression of p53 protein, which may be the important mechanisms of cisplatin's anticancer action.</p>
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate effect on telomerase activity, apoptosis and p53/bcl-2 gene expression of MCF-7 cells line induced by paclitaxel.Methods By techniques of cell culture in vitro, telomeric repeat amplification protocol with ELISA(TRAP-ELISA) and flow-cytometry (FCM), MCF-7 cell line was treated by paclitaxel in various concentration for 72h.Results Paclitaxel down-regulated telomerase activity of MCF-7 cell, induced apoptosis of the cell in a concentration-dependent manner, significantly decreased expression of bcl-2 gene protein and increased expression of p53 gene protein. There was a positive correlation between telomerase activity and apoptosis and the expression of p53/bcl-2 gene protein.ConclusionPaclitaxel could down-regulate telomerase activity,induce apoptosis, decrease expression of bcl-2 gene protein and increase expression of p53 gene protein, which may be one of important mechanisms of Paclitaxel′s anticancer action.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the alteration of telomerase activity of MCF 7 cell line of breast cancer in the presence of different anticancer drugs. Methods The hyperplasia and viability of MCF 7 cell were detected by cell counting and trypan blue exclusion, and the telomerase activity was measured by TRAP.The alteration of MCF 7 cell and its related factors of telomerase activity were observed on cell growing in different condition. Results In abscence of drug, there was a positive correlation between hyperplasia and telomerase activity of the cell(r= 0.901 ). Adriamycin, paclitaxel and cisplatin could obviously inhibit the growth and reduce the telomerase activity of the cell in a dose-dependent and time-dependent fashion, and this reduction in telomerase activity closely correlated with the reduction in the number of viable cells. Conclusions Adriamycin, paclitaxel and cisplatin can inhibit the growth of MCF 7 cell, which may be correlated with the reduction in telomerase activity and cell viability.
ABSTRACT
Acute renal failure was inflicted on 38 rabbits with the subcutaneous injection of 50 per cent glycerin solution 15ml/kg.The renal pathologic changes in the rabbits were observed by using scanning electron microscopy from 1 to 72 hours after the injection of glycerin.The re- sults showed:in the initial phase,both the glomerular endothelium and epithelium changed pathologically and there was fibrin formation in the renal microvascularity.The glomerular endothelium and epithelium were covered by dense amorphous particulate matter through the initial and maintain phase of the acute renal failure.The renal tubules were obstructed by casts,and the tubule rupture was found in the maintain phase.These findings suggested that early in the course of the disease the affects of glomerular changes and accumulation of for- eign matter might be more important than the renal tubule for the pathogenesis of glycerol-induced acute renal failure in rabbits.
ABSTRACT
This paper reports a study of renal microcirculation in rabbits with glycerol-induced acute renal failure by using the microsphere technique, transmission and scanning electron-microscopy as well as morphemetry. In the initial phase of acute renal failure, there was microcir-culatory ischemia, and the changes were parallel with functional changes following glycerol injection, the renal microcirculation showed marked structureal changes. The results indicated that renal microcirculation should be given early.
