The clinical and pathological characteristics of this disease have been established and were recently summarized in the expert clinical guideline published in 2011. In spite of the wide knowledge accumulated on this disease, there are many areas where scientific data are missing, especially in regard to the disease's pathophysiology. Recent publications have suggested that other confounding factors modify the disease and may affect its clinicalphenotypic presentation. Those factors may include place of living, air pollution, race, genetic factors and other. In the present report we discussed and review those confounding factors, the new developments, and what direction we should go to further advance our knowledge of this disease.展开更多

Recent research indicates that chemotactic factors such as IL-8, MCP-1 and MIP-1αhave played an important role in such aspects as formulation, growth, shifting of the tumor. The aim of this study was to investigate expressions of IL-8, MCP-1 and MIP-1αin gal bladder adenocarcinoma tissues. Methods:Gal bladder adenocarcinoma and noncancerous tissues were routinely formalin-fixed and paraf in-embedded, and in situ hybridization assay for IL-8, MCP-1 and MIP-1αmRNA. Results:(1) The positive rates or the scorings of IL-8, MCP-1 and MIP-1αmRNA were significantly higher in human gal bladder adenocarcinoma than those in human chronic cholecystitis (P〈0.01). The positive rates or the scorings of three factors were lower in wel-dif erentiatiated gal bladder adenocarcinoma than in poorly-dif erenfiatted ones, whereas there was only one significant dif erence between MCP-1 mRNA (P〈0.05). The closely positive correlation were found among IL-8, MCP-1 and MIP-1αmRNA. (2) Both the positive rates of IL-8 mRNA and MCP-1 mRNA as wel as their scorings were tightly related to their invasion of the common bile duct and the occurrence of lymph node transfer, moreover, the positive rates of MIP-1αmRNA and its scorings were tightly related to its invasion of liver. (3) Close positive correlation exists not only in IL-8 mRNA and MCP-1 mRNA (r=0.528), but also in MIP-1αmRNA and IL-8 mRNA (r=0.422), so does in MCP-1 mRNA and MIP-1αmRNA (r=0.638). Conclusion:The positive rates or the scorings of IL-8, MCP-1 and MIP-1αmRNA are significantly higher in human gal bladder adenocarcinoma than those in human chronic cholecystitis, and the closely positive correlation are found among them, which suggests that IL-8, MCP-1 and MIP-1αregulate and influence the development and transformation of the gal bladder adencarcinoma together.展开更多

Methods: A total of 162 patients with early diabetic nephropathy who had been admitted to the Hospital between February 2017 and February 2018 were randomly assigned into a Metformin group, an Irbesartan group, and a combination therapy group. The Metformin group were treated with oral Metformin, those in the Irbesartan group were given oral Irbesartan for treatment, and the combination therapy group was treated with Metformin combined with Irbesartan. After 3 months of continuous treatment, the levels of sTNFR1, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, glucose metabolism index, proteinuria, and serum creatinine levels in the two groups were compared. Results:After treatment, the levels of sTNFR1, sICAM-1, hs-CRP, and MCP-1 in the three groups decreased compared with those before treatment, and the levels in the combination therapy group were all shown to be lower than those of the Metformin group and the Irbesartan group, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). The levels of glycosylated hemoglobin and fasting blood glucose in the three groups were significantly lower than before treatment, and those in the combination therapy group were lower than the Metformin group and Irbesartan group, where the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The 24-hour urinary protein quantification, urinary albumin excretion rate, and serum creatinine in the combination therapy group were lower than those in the Metformin group and in the Irbesartan group, where the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: The effects of metformin combined with irbesartan on early diabetic nephropathy patients were significant, which can effectively reduce the levels of serum sTNFR1 and MCP-1, relieve inflammation and improve glucose metabolism and proteinuria level.展开更多
