ABSTRACT

Eight triterpenes were isolated from the methanol extract of Galbanum by various chromatographic methods including silica gel, ODS opening column, recrystallization and semi-preparative HPLC. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic methods and physicochemical properties as 3β,19α,21α-trihydroxyl-12-en-28-oic acid (1), sumaresinolic acid (2), 3β,19α-dihydroxyl-12-en-28-oic acid (3), oleanolic acid (4), 3β,6β,19α-trihydroxyl-12-en-28-oic acid (5), 19α-hydroxy oleanonic acid (6), 6α-hydroxy oleanonic acid (7), and (11R,12R)-3α,6α-dihydroxy-epoxyolean-28α,13α-olide (8). Among them, compound 1 is a new compound, while compounds 2-8 were newly isolated from the Apiaceae family. The ability of compounds 1-8 to inhibit cholinesterase was determined with an improved Ellman method. Compound 1 showed strong inhibitory activity against butyrylcholinesterase. The molecular docking results indicated that Trp82, His438, Phe329 and Ala328 played an important role in the binding of compound 1 to butyrylcholinesterase.

ABSTRACT

Breast cancer mainly occurs in woman's mammary epithelial tissues, with a complex and unclear pathogenesis. The mortality rate is high and increasing year by year, and the patients become younger and younger, which seriously threatens woman's health. Therefore, it's urgent to find high-efficiency and low-toxicity medicines against breast cancer. The breast is not an essential organ for life support, but the cancer cells can easily fall off and metastasize throughout the body with blood or lymph fluid. It's a main cause of death. Surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, molecular targeting, endocrine therapy, immunity therapy have certain limitations due to serious toxicity and side effects and the difficulty in controlling the invasion and metastasis of the cancer cell. In recent years, traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)has been widely studied and valued by researchers at home and abroad due to its unique advantages, such as multiple pathways, multiple targets, low toxicity and fewer side effects, and a lot of TCMs and their active ingredients with the anti-breast cancer activity have been studied by the researchers. Based on flavonoids, polyphenols, alkaloids, terpenes and other TCM ingredients, the mechanism in inhibiting breast cancer cell proliferation, inducing it apoptosis, inhibiting it invasion and migration in vitro were taken as the main content, which was supplemented by the summary of main relevant signal pathways targeted by the ingredients. This study reviewed the mechanism of ingredients in suppressing breast cancer in vitro by viewing and screening relevant literature at home and abroad in the past 10 years. The in-depth study of effective ingredients of TCM is expected to provide a reference for the development of effective targeting preparations for treating breast cancer. On the basis of in-depth excavation of active ingredients of TCM, relevant studies in the future are suggested to apply the ingredients of TCM acting on the same or similar pathways, factors, proteins, and make use of the basic theory of TCM, so as to achieve the effect in against breast cancer.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the clinical features and prognosis of primary acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with trisomy 8.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The clinical data of 24 cases diagnosed as primary AML with trisomy 8 were collected. The clinical characteristics such as sex, age, subtype of FAB, blood routine and bone marrow blast at the first visit were analyzed and the relationship of the characteristics with CR rate and the prognosis was explored.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>12 out of 24 AML patients were diagnosed as M5 (50%), while M2, M3, M4 and M6 had 3 cases, respectively (12.5%); one case did not receive the chemotherapy. 23 cases received 1-2 cycles of standard induction chemotherapy. Among them 3 cases of M3 achieved complete response (CR) and survived until the last following up with 100% 5-year OS rate. Among 20 cases of non-M3, 12 cases achieved CR1 (60%), 4 cases achieved partial response (PR) (20%), 4 cases did not respond (NR); 5 cases relapsed in follow-up for 3 years after CR1 (41.7%), 3 cases achieved CR2 after re-induction chemotherapy, and 2 cases remained NR. Among 20 cases of non-M3, 1 case failed to be followed-up after diagnosis within 1 month. The mean follow-up time of 19 cases was 26.2 (1.5-84) months, 9 cases died (6 cases of M5, 1 case of M4 and 2 cases of M2), who achieved PR and NR, or relapsed after CR1; the 3-year DFS and OS were 21%, 31.5% respectively. 2 cases of non-M3 accepted allo-HSCT with HLA-matched sibling donor and kept disease-free survival until the last following up, and survived for 58 and 66 months respectively. Except for 3 cases of M3, 2 cases received allo-HSCT and the cases without chemotherapy, the other 18 cases with initial WBC count less than 10×10(9)/L had OS and DFS longer than those of 10 cases with initial WBC count no less than 10×10(9)/L (P<0.05, P<0.01). The OS of 10 cases with CR1 was longer than OS of those cases without CR1 (P<0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The incidence of trisomy 8 in M5 is higher than the other AML subtypes, and the prognosis of M5 is poor. The initial WBC count above 10×10(9)/L is a high-risk factor. M3 with trisomy 8 and RARA gene has a very good prognosis. Trisomy 8 may increase the risk of primary AML except for M3, so allo-HSCT with HLA-matched sibling donor should be carried out as much as possible after CR1. The gene mutation of FLT3, MLL, HOX11, C-kit, NPM1 may possess an important significance on prognosis.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the clinical role of dilation and curettage (DC) in the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy (EP).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of 108 patients with pregnancy of unknown location who underwent a DC with an abnormal rise in β-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-HCG) level and without visible intrauterine pregnancy (IUP) on transvaginal ultrasound and 24 patients who did not receive DC with β-HCG>5 000 IU/L.The final diagnosis depended on β-HCG trend review after DC and the pathologic and laparoscopic findings.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Overall, 65.3% of the patients were finally diagnosed with EP and 34.7% were found to have a nonviable IUP.Those with EP had significantly higher initial β-HCG than those with nonviable IUP.IUP patients were more likely to have had a history of delivery.Among the patients with β-HCG<2 000 IU/L, 40.0% of EP and 11.0% of IUP had endometrial echo complex no more than 5 mm (P=0.035). In β-HCG<2 000 IU/L and 2 000 IU/L<β-HCG<5 000 IU/L groups, the diagnostic rate of EP was 42.6% and 68.3% respectively (P=0.012). Among the patients with β-HCG>5 000 IU/L, there was no significant difference between those with DC and those without DC (96.7% vs.96%, P=0.915).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Ultrasound findings such as a thin endometrial echo complex and the presence of pelvic mass are associated with but are not diagnostic of an ectopic pregnancy.The patients with the suspected diagnosis of EP are 2 000 IU/L<β-HCG<5 000 IU/L, whereas DC remains important valuable to differentiate EP from nonviable IUP and to avoid misdiagnosis and unnecessary exposure to methotrexate. Because EP is the common final diagnosis in most of the patients with β-HCG>5 000 IU/L and pelvic mass and without intrauterine gestational sac, the value of DC decreases and laparoscopy can be considered directly.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>The techniques of resection and repair of large lesions in the abdominal wall are very challenging in the area of gynecology. We explored the techniques of resection and plastic surgical repair of large abdominal wall lesions in gynecologic patients.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Twenty-six patients with large lesions in the abdominal wall underwent resection by the gynecologists and repair through abdominal plasty and V-Y plasty with or without fascia patch grafting by the gynecologists or plastic surgeons from March 2003 to October 2010.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All patients had a history of cesarean section. One patient had an infected sinus tract after cesarean section, one patient had an inflammatory nodule, and the others had lesions of endometriosis, including one cancer. The average largest lesion diameter was (4.79 ± 4.18) cm according to the ultrasonography results. The lesions of all patients were completely resected with pretty abdominal contour. A polypropylene biological mesh was added to the fascia in 20 patients. One patient underwent groin flap repair, and one underwent V-Y advanced skin flap repair on the left of the incision to relieve the suture tension.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Multi-department cooperation involving the gynecology and plastic surgery departments, and even the general surgery department, is essential for patients with large lesions in the abdominal wall. This cooperative effort enabled surgeons to completely resect large lesions. Abdominal wall plastic surgical repair can ameliorate large wounds of the abdominal wall.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>Lupus hepatitis is yet to be characterized based on its clinical features and is often difficult to differentially diagnose from other liver diseases. We aimed to elucidate clinical, histopathological and immunopathological features of lupus hepatitis and to evaluate primarily the effectiveness of liver immunopathological manifestations on differential diagnosis of lupus hepatitis from other liver diseases.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A retrospective study was performed to analyze clinical features of lupus hepatitis in 47 patients out of 504 inpatients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, China from May 2006 to July 2009, and to evaluate the association between lupus hepatitis and SLE activity. Additionally, liver histopathological changes by hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining and immunopathological changes by direct immunofluorescence test in 10 lupus hepatitis cases were analyzed and compared to those in 16 patients with other liver diseases in a prospective study.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Of 504 SLE patients, 47 patients (9.3%) were diagnosed to have lupus hepatitis. The prevalence of lupus hepatitis in patients with active SLE was higher than that in those with inactive SLE (11.8% vs. 3.2%, P < 0.05). The incidence of hematological abnormalities in patients with lupus hepatitis was higher than that in those without lupus hepatitis (40.4% vs. 21.7%, P < 0.05), such as leucocytes count (2.92×10(9)/L vs. 5.48×10(9)/L), platelets count (151×10(9)/L vs. 190×10(9)/L), serum C3 and C4 (0.34 g/L vs. 0.53 g/L; 0.06 g/L vs. 0.09 g/L) (P < 0.05); 45 of 47 (95.7%) lupus hepatitis patients showed 1 upper limit of normal (ULN) < serum ALT level < 5 ULN. The liver histopathological features in patients with lupus hepatitis were miscellaneous and non-specific, similar to those in other liver diseases, but liver immunopathological features showed positive intense deposits of complement 1q in 7/10 patients with lupus hepatitis and negative complement 1q deposits in all patients with other liver diseases (Fisher's exact test, P = 0.011).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Lupus hepatitis was not infrequent in active SLE patients which would be one of the indices indicating SLE activity. Positive intense deposit of complement 1q in liver may be a characteristic immunopathological feature of lupus hepatitis, which provides a new way to differentially diagnose lupus hepatitis from other liver diseases.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>The natural history of liver cirrhosis in China has not been well understood. This study aimed to elucidate the profile and development of the complications of liver cirrhosis as well as the mortality of those cirrhotics with miscellaneous complications.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We assembled data from the clinical characteristics, especially from the profile complications of cirrhosis on admission, and collected information by telephone or interview with patients and/or their family members in clinic to evaluate the development of complications in 920 patients enrolled in a prospective non-randomized cohort study, and followed up from June 2006 to October 2010. Mortality was calculated using Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox regress analysis. We employed both of the Child-Pugh scoring system and model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) scoring system to compare with the accordance and veracity between liver function and the long-term outcome.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>On admission, only 7.4% patients had no complications, 44.5% patients with one complication (ascites, esophageal/gastric varices or hepatocellular carcinoma), 33.8% patients with two coexisting complications, and 7.5% patients had complications concurrently with ascites, esophageal/gastric varices and hepatocellular carcinoma. During the follow-up (mean follow-up time was 17 months, ranging from 1.0 to 52.2 months) of all the patients, 37.5% patients survived without new complications, 62.5% patients had new complications, and the overall mortality was 53.9%. Patients with one or more complications had higher mortality (total mortality, 1-year or 3-year mortality) and shorter mean survival time than those without any complication; the major cause of mortality of these cirrhotic patients was hepatocellular carcinoma (59%). Evaluated with the Child-Pugh score system, the total mortality in those with the scores more than 12 (class C) was 71.4%, the 1-year and 3-year mortalities were 57.1% and 71.4% respectively; while evaluated with the MELD scoring system, the mortality of those with the scores more than 30 was 58.6%, the 1-year and 3-year mortalities were 44.2% and 57.8% respectively.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To report and evaluate the results of subtalar distraction bone block fusion in the treatment of malunited calcaneus fracture.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From September 2004 to January 2008, 32 cases of malunited calcaneus fracture were treated, among which 28 cases were classified type II and 4 cases type III by Stephens-Sander's classification. Preoperative X-ray and CT examination demonstrated a talocalcaneal angle of 18.1 degrees ± 2.3 degrees , and an AOFAS score of 36.3 ± 4.1. Subtalar distraction bone block fusion was performed in all cases in this series. Regular follow-up was done with talocalcaneal angle measurement and AOFAS scoring.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All the 32 patients had been followed-up of 34 months, ranging from 24 to 65 months, only to reveal a primary wound healing without infection in all but one, in which superficial skin necrosis occurred postoperatively and healed after dressing-changes. Bone healing at the fusion site was seen 3 months after operation in all cases. At the final follow-up, the talocalcaneal angle was 22.9° ± 1.9° and the AOFAS score 77.5 ± 4.1, both demonstrating a significant difference (P < 0.05), when compared with those before operation.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Subtalar distraction bone block fusion, together with the lateral wall decompression, can correct the main deformity and reduce major symptoms induced by the malunion of calcaneus fractures, being a convenient and practical option for the treatment of malunited calcaneus fracture.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the results of intra-articular calcaneal fractures treated with open reduction and internal fixation.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Thirty-five displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures in 34 patients were treated with open reduction and internal fixation from August 2001 to April 2003. Fracture classification was based on Sanders classification. Extended lateral approach, and fixed the fractures with AO titanium plate for calcaneus were performed. Bone graft was used in selected patients. Thirty-five fractures in thirty-four patients were evaluated using radiographic examinations and ankle hindfoot clinical rating system of the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS). Average follow-up was 18.3 months (range from 12 to 32 months).</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>There were 30 type II fractures and 5 type III fractures. Average Böhler's angle was 5.6 degrees preoperatively and 28.2 degrees finally. Roentgenographic evaluation of calcaneal body dimensions showed restoration of heel height (97.7%) to virtually normal. Anatomic or near anatomic reductions were obtained in 80% of the cases. The average score was 88.1 for type II fractures, and 78.8 for type III fractures. Excellent or good clinical results occurred in 82.8% type II fractures, and 60.0% type III fractures. The overall excellent or good rate was 79.4%.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>From the results, open reduction and internal fixation for Sanders type II and type III fractures are recommended.</p>

ABSTRACT

To provide necessary information for further understanding of molecular mechanism of hypoxia acclimatization, the differentially expressed genes of HepG2 cells exposed to normoxia, acute hypoxia-treated cells which were exposed to 1% oxygen for 48 h, and hypoxia-acclimatized HepG2 cells which were cultured for 6 circles of alternate low oxygen (1% oxygen for 24 h) and normal oxygen (21% oxygen for 24 h), were identified respectively by combining the suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) and cDNA microarray. Thirty-seven genes were expressed differentially in cells exposed to 1% oxygen for 48 h compared with those in cells exposed to normoxia. The expression of all these 37 genes was down-regulated, including the genes participating in cell cycle, cell response to stimulus, and cell signal transduction, and cell cytoskeleton formation, the genes associated with transcription and cell metabolism, 4 expressed sequence tags (ESTs), and 12 genes of which the functions are not known. There is a novel gene sequence, which has not been found in existing databases. There were only 6 genes differentially expressed in the hypoxia-acclimatized cells compared with cells exposed to normoxia, including two mitochondrion genes, metalloprotease-1 gene, ferritin gene, thymosin beta-4 and TPT1 genes. The expressions of mitochondrion ND4, ferritin, thymosin beta-4 and TPT1 were up-regulated, while the expressions of mitochondrion ND1 gene and metalloproease-1 gene were down-regulated. Cell tolerance to hypoxia increased after the cells were hypoxia-acclimatized. The different gene expression patterns of the acute hypoxia-treated cells and the hypoxia-acclimatized cells may be related to the increased tolerance of the cells to hypoxia.
