    Large Cervical Conization Could be as a Surgical Modality for Early-stage Cervical Cancer?
    GAO Yong-liang;ZHU Jian-qing
    2011, 38 (2):  87-88. 
    Abstract ( 1490 )   PDF (150KB) ( 4902 )  

    Radical hysterectomy and radical trachelectomy are important surgical modalities for cervical cancer. Although better effect is accompanied with these operations,many complications might occur,some even more serious. Many clinical trials showed that parametrial involvement was not found in low risk early-stage cervical cancer. In recent years,risk factors for parametrial spread is better understood. All these results establish the basis of less radical surgical procedure for early-stage cervical cancer. Large cervical conization with pelvic lymphadenectomy could be a reasonable therapeutic option for some low risk early-stage cervical cancer to reduce complications and improve quality of life.

    Progress in the Neuroendocrine Origin of Perimenopausal Hot Flushes
    LU Ze-chun;CHEN Ya-qiong
    2011, 38 (2):  97-100. 
    Abstract ( 1589 )   PDF (260KB) ( 4989 )  
    Although hot flushes are the most common characteristic during menopause but underlying physiopathological mechanisms has not yet been clarified. Trials of drugs that selectively inhibit the re-uptake of serotonin and noradrenalin have shown some beneficial effects which provides new insight into the pathophysiology of hot flushes. A variety of chemical pathways have been proposed involving estrogen,serotonin,endorphin,noradrenalin and dopamine. Flushing occurs as a result of disturbance of the temperature regulating system situated in the hypothalamus on low estrogen conditions,and probably a reduction in the thermoneutral zone, within which fluctuations of basal body temperature do not provoke compensatory vascular responses. Many factors have been implicated, including hormone factors, serotonin, gonadotrophins and multip neurohumoral mechanisms.

    XIA Yan;JIN Zhi-jun
    2011, 38 (2):  101-104. 
    Abstract ( 1526 )   PDF (306KB) ( 5039 )  
    Vulvovaginal candidiasis(VVC)is a common disease, occurring mostly in women of childbearing age. Currently available options for the treatment of VVC include local and oral therapy. Both alternatives are effective. The availability of numerous antifungal drugs for topical administration makes the selection quite challenging. Now it is generally considered that azoles is the preference, with nystatin, amphotericin B and boric acid considered as second-line alternatives, with lactobacillus, oils and antihistamine as adjuvant alternatives. Unconventional approaches may also be regarded as suitable in patients refractory to usual treatments. When treatment of VVC, some other important issues should be taken into consideration, such as pregnancy, menopause, drug hypersensitivity, women’s preference and so on.

    Progress of Study on the Relationship Between the Spindle Checkpoint and Carcinoma
    CHEN Yong-hua;WANG Jian-liu
    2011, 38 (2):  108-111. 
    Abstract ( 1730 )   PDF (265KB) ( 5047 )  
    The spindle checkpoint is an important cell-cycle surveillance mechanism that ensures the fidelity of chromosome segregation during mitosis and is required for genetic stability. It has become increasingly clear that malfunction of the cell-cycle surveillance mechanism involving the spindle checkpoint contributes to cancer formation. Accumulated evidence shows that deregulated expression, genotypic polymorphism or promoter methylation of the mitotic checkpoint components are associated with tumourigenesis. Anti-cancer drugs disrupt the normal function of the mitotic spindle and cause spindle checkpoint-mediated mitotic arrest and/or apoptosis. Delineating the precise regulatory mechanisms of the spindle checkpoint will provide novel effective strategies in anticancer treatment.

    ZHANG Dong;QU Quan-xin
    2011, 38 (2):  120-122. 
    Abstract ( 1555 )   PDF (239KB) ( 4973 )  
    HR-HPV infection is one of the important reasons for cervical cancer. E5, E6 and E7 are three early oncoproteins ecoded from HR-HPV, they can stimulate growth and transformation of cervical epithelial cells. Recent researches revealed that E5 could cause cancer by means of interfering the growth factor receptors, disturbing cyclins and CDKs and promoting the transformation of virus oncogenes. E6 could intervene P53 to lose its negatively adjustment function to cell proliferation, and cause cells proliferation and malignant transformation toward infinity. E7 could cause cancer mainly through intervention to remove the retinoblastoma cell proliferation function. This article is to review research progresses of carcinogenesis mechanism about the three oncoproteins.

    WANG Fen;CAO Yun-xia
    2011, 38 (2):  128-131. 
    Abstract ( 1484 )   PDF (253KB) ( 4867 )  
    In recent years, premature delivery has an ascending trend in whatever developed countries or poorer areas. Premature infants is 45.9%—75% of neonates mortality, while 8%—25% survived infants have nerve and intelligence sequelae. The etiology of preterm labor and deliver is still not clear. Internal inflammation reaction may be its leading pathogeny. Manifold pathogen cause infection in uterine cavity, promote matrix metalloproteinases express rapidly in fibroblasts. MMPs decompose the extracellular matrix and regulate glycosamine, thus stimulates amnion, decidua and chorion to produce prostaglandin(PG). PG can result in the preterm premature rupture of the membranes, the cervical ripening and dilation, uterine contraction and placenta abruption. At the end, premature delivery is unavoidable.

    Research on Fetal Bilirubin Metabolism and the Relationship Between It and Fetal Outcome
    WANG Xiao-lu;SHAO Yong
    2011, 38 (2):  136-139. 
    Abstract ( 1594 )   PDF (232KB) ( 4865 )  
    Bilirubin metabolism plays an important role for the human,free bilirubin can pass through cell membranes, blood-brain barrier and lipid membranes freely, resulting in cell toxicity and neonatal kernicterus.Fetal bilirubin metabolism is different from the adults′. Because of the immaturity of fetal liver function, only a small amount of fetal bilirubin can be transformed into non-toxic conjugated bilirubin via fetal liver, while most of the unconjugated bilirubin dissolved in the plasma in the form of bilirubin-albumin complex is transferred to mother to be metabolized by bilirubin carriers in the placenta. In certain pathological conditions, such as high concentration of bilirubin or low concentration of albumin, bilirubin-albumin complex may be dissociated from albumin binding sites to free bilirubin, which can result in neurotoxic effects on fetus,causing fetal adverse outcomes.

    ZHANG Hui;MA Xiao-yan;WANG Ke;YANG Li-yuan;BAI Wen-pei;QIN Li-hua
    2011, 38 (2):  143-147. 
    Abstract ( 2848 )   PDF (495KB) ( 5009 )  
    Objective: The purpose of this study was to observe the changes of c-Fos protein expression in supraoptic nucleus(SO) and paraventricular nuclei(PVN) to investigate the dysfunction mechanism in blood,osmotic pressure and thermoregulation of climacteric period following different ambient temperature stimulation to ovariectomized rats. Methods: Rats of ovariectomy group(OVX group) and Sham operation group(Sham group) were placed in incubators at 4 ℃,10 ℃,25 ℃,33 ℃ and 38 ℃ for 2 hours respectively, and then remove their brains after anesthesia. c-Fos expression was detected by immunohistochemical method. Results: Comparison of c-Fos protein expression- positive cell densities in OVX and Sham groups under the same temperature: SO has markedly low strong positive cell densities under 4 ℃,10 ℃ and 38 ℃;PVN has low strong positive cell densities under 4 ℃,10 ℃,33 ℃ and 38 ℃. The c-Fos protein expression-positive cell densities in SO and in PVN of Sham group and OVX group under different temperatures share the same change rule,i.e. below 25 ℃ the cell densities decrease as the temperature rises,while above 25 ℃ they increase as the temperature rises. Under different temperatures,the strong positive cell densities of Sham group in SO and PVN are significantly different between adjacent temperatures;the strong positive cell densities of OVX group in SO share the same rules,except between 4 ℃ and 10 ℃ and between 33 ℃ and 38 ℃;while OVX group in PVN have difference only between 25 ℃and 33 ℃. Conclusions: Under the same temperature stimuli,the expression of c-Fos protein of different groups in SO and in PVN differs. Under different temperature stimuli,the range of excitatory neurons in SO and in PVN narrows and the densities decrease,which may possibly resulting in abnormalities of blood and osmotic pressure and thermoregulation and further leading to a series of climacteric symptoms such as dizziness,fluctuation of blood pressure and hot flashes.

    Objective:To investigate regional changes in 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT)1A receptors(5-HT1AR) and 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT) 2A receptors(5-HT2AR) in the OVX rat preoptic area of hypothalamus after 1-4 weeks treatment with isopropanolic black cohosh extract—remifemin(ICR), and explore its potential mechanism of alleviating hot flushes during the peri-menopausal period. Methods:The rats were divided into four groups, ovariectomy (OVX) group,sham group,ovariectomy with estradiol valerate(E2) treatment(OVX+E2)group, and ovariectomy with ICR treatment(OVX+ICR) group. The sham group underwent a sham operation without
    ovariectomies,while the other three groups underwent bilateral ovariectomies under sterile conditions. All rats were given 2 weeks to recover after the operation,then each group was given a different treatment lasting 1 week,2 weeks,3 weeks and 4 weeks. The expression of 5-HT1AR and 5-HT2AR in the rat preoptic area of hypothalamus(POAH)were detected by immunohistochemistry. Results:①After 1-4 weeks′ treatment,the number of 5-HT1AR positive cells and the optical density(OD) in POAH of OVX group significantly increased compared with that in the same period of sham group;while the number of 5-HT1AR positive cells and the optical density in periventricular zone of OVX+ICR group and OVX+E2 group significantly decreased compared with that in the same period of OVX group. ②After 1-4 weeks′ treatment, the number of 5-HT2AR positive cells and the optical density (OD) in intermediate zone and lateral zone of OVX group significantly increased compared with that in the same period of sham group. The number of 5-HT2AR positive cells and the optical density(OD) in intermediate zone and lateral zone of OVX+ICR group and OVX+E2 group significantly increased compared with that in the same period of OVX group after 1-2 weeks′ treatment. While the result is reverse after 3-4 weeks′ treatment. Conclusions:Ovariectomized rats had increased expression of 5-HT1AR and 5-HT2AR.After treatment with remifemin or estradiol valerate,the expression of 5-HT1AR in POAH significantly decreased. While the expression of 5-HT2AR in POAH decreased following an increased period. Regulating the expression of 5-HT1AR and 5-HT2AR in POAH may be one of the mechanisms of remifemin alleviating menopausal hot flush .
