输尿管部分切除术治疗原发性输尿管癌的长期随访分析

目的:探讨保留肾脏的输尿管部分切除术治疗原发性输尿管癌的长期疗效。方法:回顾性分析1999年3月~2013年2月行保留肾脏的输尿管部分切除术的31例输尿管癌患者临床资料:12例患者行输尿管膀胱再植术,19例行输尿管端端吻合术。随访14~171个月,观察术后尿路肿瘤复发率、患者总体生存率、肿瘤分期及病理分级方面分层生存率等情况。结果:术后尿路肿瘤复发率为19.35%(6/31);总体5年及10年生存率分别为77.41%、58.64%;低肿瘤分期组5年及10年生存率均为86.67%,高肿瘤分期组5年及10年生存率分别为74.93%和54.29%;低病理分级组5年及10年生存率均为76.00%,高病理分级组5年及10年生存率分别为78.26%和48.83%。结论:在严密随访下,输尿管部分切除术可以有效治疗低分期、低分级输尿管癌。     

Hypocholesterolaemic mechanism of bitter melon aqueous extracts via inhibition of pancreatic cholesterol esterase and reduction of cholesterol micellar solubility

This study investigated the hypocholesterolaemic effects of bitter melon aqueous extracts (BMAE) in vitro, the inhibitory effects of BMAE on pancreatic cholesterol esterase (CEase) and incorporation of cholesterol into micelles were investigated. BMAE decreased the in vitro micellar solubility of cholesterol in a dose-dependent manner. The conformation of CEase was investigated by means of circular dichroism (CD) and fluorescence. The result revealed the decrease of α-helix contents, increase of β-sheet and exposure of aromatic amino acid residuals. The incorporation of cholesterol into micelles was inhibited by BMAE. A complex was observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), which indicated interaction between cholesterol and BMAE. The result revealed that BMAE can play a role in decreased intestinal cholesterol absorption via inhibition of CEase, and of micelle formation.
