RESUMEN

Objective To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of radioactive Iodine-refrac-tory differentiated thyroid cancer(RAIR-DTC)to provide a clinical evidence for early prediction of the thyroid cancer patients with radioactive Iodine-refractory(RAIR).Methods The data of 84 patients with undergoing thyroidectomy and 131I therapy in PLA 960 hospital from January 2010 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.Thirty-nine patients with diagnosed RAIR-DTC served as the study group and 45 cases of radioactive iodine-avid differentiated thyroid cancer(RAIA-DTC)served as the control group.The clinicopathological characteristics were compared between the two groups.The logistic regression was used to analyze the inde-pendent risk factors of RAIR-DTC,and the RAIR-DTC prediction model was established.Results Compared with the RAIA-DTC group,the RAIR-DTC group had more iodine treatment times,the proportions of the pa-tients with age ≥55 years old,total iodine therapeutic dose,distant metastasis,TNM stage Ⅳ,high-risk sub-types and focal calcification were higher,the tumor maximum diameter was greater,the number of lymph node metastases was more and the probability of Ⅱ,Ⅰ+Ⅱ and non-central lymph node metastases was higher(P＞0.05).The progression-free survival rate had statistical difference between the two groups(P＜0.05).The total survival rate had no statistical difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).The binary logistic re-gression analysis results showed that the distant metastasis,high-risk histological subtype and maximum tumor diameter ≥10.5 mm were the independent risk factors for RAIR-DTC.The obtained fitting equation logit(P)=-2.259+3.330X1+2.287X2+1.606X3,the ROC curve was used to calculate the truncation val-ue of the fitted equation as-0.312 5,when logit(P)＞-0.312 5,it might develop into RAIR-DTC.Conclusion The clinicopathological characteristics of the patients with differentiated thyroid cancer could ef-fectively predict RAIR.

RESUMEN

Objective:To explore the application effect of rotating skin flap in the repair of skin and soft tissue defects in the perineum.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 9 patients with perineal soft tissue defects treated in the Department of the First Affiliated Hospital, Wenzhou Medical University from January 2022 to March 2024. Among them, 8 cases were soft tissue defects after extensive resection of Paget′s disease in the perineum, and 1 case was soft tissue defects after treatment of severe urethral stricture. The defect area ranged from 4 cm×1.5 cm to 30 cm×35 cm, and all wounds were repaired with rotating skin flaps, For patients with excessive area, rotating skin flaps were used to cover important areas, combined with autologous skin and artificial skin to cover the remaining wounds. Patients with urethral stricture were treated with free oral mucosal reconstruction of the urethra combined with rotational skin flap coverage. The donor site was directly sutured or autologous skin was transplanted.Results:After surgery, the recipient skin flaps of 9 patients survived and the donor area healed. After a follow-up of 9-15 months, the skin flap survived well, with skin color approaching normal, and the donor site wound healed well. Eight patients with Paget′s disease did not show any recurrence, among which one patient with extensive wound expansion had good recovery of the perineal skin flap coverage area, and small-scale chronic ulcers appeared in the skin graft area. The skin flap of the patient with urethral stricture had recovered well, and the shape of the penis was good, without any urethral stricture, urinary fistula, sinus tract, etc.Conclusions:The rotational skin flap has a clear therapeutic effect on perineal soft tissue defects and is suitable for repairing perineal skin and soft tissue defects.

RESUMEN

The solute carrier family 12(SLC12)of cation-chloride cotransporters(CCCs)comprises potassium chlo-ride cotransporters(KCCs,e.g.KCC1,KCC2,KCC3,and KCC4)-mediated Cl-extrusion,and sodium po-tassium chloride cotransporters(N[K]CCs,NKCC1,NKCC2,and NCC)-mediated Cl-loading.The CCCs play vital roles in cell volume regulation and ion homeostasis.Gain-of-function or loss-of-function of these ion transporters can cause diseases in many tissues.In recent years,there have been considerable ad-vances in our understanding of CCCs'control mechanisms in cell volume regulations,with many tech-niques developed in studying the functions and activities of CCCs.Classic approaches to directly measure CCC activity involve assays that measure the transport of potassium substitutes through the CCCs.These techniques include the ammonium pulse technique,radioactive or nonradioactive rubidium ion uptake-assay,and thallium ion-uptake assay.CCCs'activity can also be indirectly observed by measuring y-aminobutyric acid(GABA)activity with patch-clamp electrophysiology and intracellular chloride con-centration with sensitive microelectrodes,radiotracer 36Cl-,and fluorescent dyes.Other techniques include directly looking at kinase regulatory sites phosphorylation,flame photometry,22Na+uptake assay,structural biology,molecular modeling,and high-throughput drug screening.This review sum-marizes the role of CCCs in genetic disorders and cell volume regulation,current methods applied in studying CCCs biology,and compounds developed that directly or indirectly target the CCCs for disease treatments.

RESUMEN

Recent studies have established the importance of estrogen-related receptor γ (ERRγ) as a required participant for insulin secretion in pancreatic ß cells. Key downstream genes of ERRγ remain unclear in the pancreatic ß cell. To understand the molecular role of ERRγ and elucidate potential key candidate genes involved in pancreatic ß cells, the eukaryotic expression plasmid containing mouse ERRγ was constructed and transfected into NIT-1 pancreatic ß cells. Overexpression of ERRγ was confirmed by quantitative real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction and Western blot analyses. RNA-seq was conducted to get the gene expression profiling between the overexpression group cells and control cells. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified by edgR and subsequently analyzed by gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis. We found that overexpression of ERRγ in pancreatic ß cells enables regulation of the expression of certain genes involved in cell apoptosis and mitochondrial function, such as TFPT, Bcl7c, Dap, Thoc6, Ube2d3, ATP5H, MPV17, and NDUFA6. GO analysis revealed that the DEGs were mainly enriched in apoptotic process, cytoplasm, and protein binding. KEGG pathway analysis demonstrated that downregulated DEGs were mainly enriched in protein processing in endoplasmic reticulum, estrogen signaling pathway, and metabolic pathways. This study helps to further understand and reposition the molecular mechanisms of ERRγ in ß cells.

RESUMEN

Objective To investigate the expression of Wnt-5a gene in primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and to expose its role and clinical significance in the development of HCC.Methods Real time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was performed in 26 fresh HCC samples and the corresponding para-carcinoma tissues to detect mRNA expression of Wnt-5a gene.Wnt-5a protein was detected with immunohistochemical method in paraffin embedding tissues of 85 cases of HCCs and the corresponding para-carcinoma tissues,and 15 cases of hepatic cirrhosis.Results RT-PCR analysis showed that Wnt-5a mRNA (0.102 127 ±0.158 620) in the HCC tissues was more than that (0.020 106 ±0.022 075) in the para-carcinoma tissues (P＜0.05).The positive expression rate of Wnt-5a protein in HCC,para-carcinoma,and hepatic cirrhosis tissues were 21.2％ (18/85),81.26％ (69/85),and 86.7％ (13/15),respectively.The positive rate of Wnt-5a was significantly lower in the HCC than in the para-carcinoma and hepatic cirrhosis tissues (P ＜ 0.01).The expression of Wnt-5a was significantly associated with lower tumor node metastasis (TNM) stages and small alpha fetoproteins (AFP) content of blood serum (P ＜0.05).Conclusions The high expression of Wnt-5a mRNA was found in the gene transcription of HCC,while Wnt-5a protein was absent or low in HCC.It was suggested that the roles of Wnt-5a was interfered at the protein level rather than the transcriptional level in the HCC.

RESUMEN

Objective To evaluate the influence of Eperythrozoon infection on human and mouse erythrocytes and to explore the pathogenesis of Eperythrozoonosis. Methods The specific gene fragment of Eperythrozoon was detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) from the venous blood samples of five patients infected with Eperythrozoon. The complement receptor type I (CD35) expression on erythrocytes of these five patients was determined by flow cytometry. Thereafter, the Eperythrozoons were purified from human samples and injected into mice through the tail veins. Blood smear microscopy, PCR and transmission electron microscopy were used to assure the successful infection. The hematological indicators of human and mice, such as red blood cell (RBC) count,hemoglobin (Hb) content, hematocrit and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were evaluated. All results were analyzed by t test. Results More than 80% of treated mice were confirmed to be infected with Eperythrozoon successfully. A fragment of 801 bp specific gene of Eperythrozoon was detected by PCR in samples from both infected patients and infected mice, which were not detected in samples from healthy control people or control mice. CD35 was highly expressed on the erythrocytes of infected patients, but not expressed on the erythrocytes of infected mice. Both RBC counts and Hb content dramatically decreased in infected patients and infected mice. Hematocrit and the activity of SOD also slightly decreased in infected patients and infected mice. Conclusions Eperythrozoon can spread between human and mice and destroy erythrocyte structure. Eperythrozoon can upregulate CD35 expression in human, but there is no CD35 expression in mice.

Effects of TCDCA on peritoneal macrophage in mouse in vitro,splenic lymphocyte, normal organism, immunologic functional inhibiting model and nerve-endocrine-immunoregulation system were investigated. Results TCDCA had the obvious immunoregulation effect on normal organisms in mouse. 0.1 g?kg-1 TCDCA had the obvious anastated effects on the immunological inhibiting model made up by the cyclosporine A and cyclophosphamide. TCDCA may affect the peritoneal macrophage and splenic lymphocyte in vitro directly, meanwhile two kinds of immunological cells showed the obvious immunoregulation effects on the whole. 0.1 g?kg-1 TCDCA can increase the hydrocortisone contents of the nerve-endocrine-immunoregulation system in mouse most remarkably. Conclusion TCDCA had the adjustment effect on the immunoregulation function in mouse.

RESUMEN

Objective: To evaluate the pharmacodynamic of clematis. Methods: 1) The relaxation of isolated ileum muscle of guinea pig by clematic was tested. The antagonism of clematis on histamine or Ach induced ileum muscle contraction was tested also. 2) By using the model of turning of trunk, the pain releasing effect of clematis was evaluated. 3) The experiments about anti-inflammation action of clematis were carried out in two models. Results: Clematis relaxed the ileum muscle. It also antagonized the contraction of the muscle caused by histamine and Ach. A single intrapeditional administration of clematis to Kun-Ming mice significantly prolonged the latency and reduced the writhe number at the turning of trunk model; clematis dose-dependently inhibited the mouse ear swelling caused by xylol. It also had anti-inflammation effect at the other model. The results demonstrated that clematis could release the pain, suppress the inflammation and smooth muscle contraction.
