AIM： Prostaglandin G/H synthase 2 （PTGS2 or COX2） is one of the key factors in the cellular response to inflammation. PTGS2 is expressed in the affected intestinal segments of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases （IBD）. In IBD patients, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, which have been shown to reduce both the production and activity of PTGS2, may activate IBD and aggravate the symptoms. We aimed at examining genetic variants of PTGS2 that may be risk factors for IBD. METHODS： We genotyped 291 individuals diagnosed with IBD and 367 controls from the Dutch population for the five most frequent polymorphisms of the PTG52 gene. Clinical data were collected on all patients. DNA was extracted via normal laboratory methods. Genotyping was carried out using multiplex PCR followed by the Invader Assay and the 5＇ exonuclease assay （TaqMan）. New polymorphism screening was performed by pre-screening with denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography, followed by fluorescent sequencing. RESULTS： Allele 5209G was weakly associated with Crohn＇s disease （odds ratio [OR] 1.63, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.03-2.57）, and allele 8473T with ulcerativecolitis （OR 1.50, 95%CI 1.00-2.27）. The haplotype including both alleles showed a strong association with IBD （OR 13.15, 95%CI 3.17-116.15）. This haplotype, while rare （-0.3%） in the general population, is found more frequently in patients （3.5%）. CONCLUSION： Our data suggest that this haplotype of PTGS2 contributes to the susceptibility of IBD.

Gastric carcinoma remains a common disease worldwide with a dismal prognosis. Therefore, it represents a very important health problem. It occurs with a high incidence in Asia and is one of the leading causes of cancer death in the world. Although the incidence and mortality of gastric carcinoma are decreasing in many countries,gastric cancer still represents the second most frequent malignancies in the world and the fourth in Europe. The 5-year survival rate of gastric carcinoma is low. The etiology and pathogenesis are not yet fully known. The study of gastric cancer is important in clinical medicine as well as in public health. Over the past 15 years,integrated research in molecular pathology has clarified the details of genetic and epigenetic abnormalities of cancer-related genes in the course of the development and progression of gastric cancer. Gastric cancer, as all cancers, is the end result of the interplay of many risk factors as well as protective factors. Although epidemiological evidence indicates that environmental factors play a major role in gastric carcinogenesis, the role of immunological, genetic, and immunogenetic factors are thought to contribute to the pathogenesis of gastric carcinoma. Among the environmental factors,diet and Helicobacter pylori are more amenable to intervention aimed at the prevention of gastric *** aim of the present paper is to review and include the most recent published evidence to demonstrate that only a multidisciplinary approach will lead to the advancement of the pathogenesis and prevention of gastric cancer. On the immunogenetic research it is clear that evidence is accumulating to suggest that a genetic profile favoring the proinflammatory response increases the risk of gastric carcinoma.

Curcumin(CUR), the main phenolic composition in turmeric, shows preventive effects in various diseases. CUR is commonly found in the Curcuma species and historically applied in herbal medicine. Numerous studies have indicated that CUR possesses protective effects against toxic agents in the various animal tissues including the brain. This study found that CUR may be effective in nervous system problems induced by neurotoxic agents. However, due to the lack of information on human, more investigations are needed to determine the efficacy of CUR as an antidote matter. The current study aimed to critically review the recent literature data from 2014 to 2016 that regarding the therapeutic aspects of CUR versus neurotoxic agents-induced brain damage and its involved mechanisms.

AIM To evaluate risk factors for primary sclerosing cholangitis(PSC) recurrence(rPSC) after orthotopic liver transplantation(OLT) in patients with well-preserved colons. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated the medical records of all patients transplanted for PSC in our center between July 1994 and May 2015 and selected 47 with followup of at least 60 mo for further analysis based on strict inclusion and exclusion criteria. rPSC was confirmed by magnetic resonance or endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and liver biopsy. All patients were evaluated by protocolary pre-OLT colonoscopy with randomized mucosal biopsies. Colonoscopy was repeated annually after OLT. Both organ donors and recipients were human leukocyte antigen(HLA) typed by serological and/or DNA methods. All input data were thoroughly analyzed employing relevant statistical *** Altogether, 31 men and 16 women with a median(range) age of 36(15-68) years at the time of OLT and a median follow-up of 122(60-249) mo were included. rPSC was confirmed in 21/47(44.7%) of patients, a median 63(12-180) mo after transplantation. De novo colitis [rPSC in 11/12, P ≤ 0.05, hazard ratio(HR): 4.02, 95% confidence interval(CI): 1.58-10.98] and history of acute cellular rejection(rPSC in 14/25, P ≤ 0.05; HR: 2.66, 95%CI: 1.03-7.86) showed strong positive associations with rPSC. According to the univariate analysis, overlapping features of autoimmune hepatitis(r PSC in 5/5, P ≤ 0.05) and HLA-DRB1*07 in the donor(r PSC in 10/15, P ≤ 0.05) represent other potential risk factors for rPSC, while the HLA-DRB1*04(rPSC in 0/6, P ≤ 0.05), HLA-DQB1*03(rPSC in 1/11, P ≤ 0.05), and HLA-DQB1*07(rPSC in 0/7, P ≤ 0.05) recipient alleles may have protective *** De novo colitis and acute cellular rejection are clinical conditions significantly predisposed towards recurrence of PSC after liver transplantation.

The etiology of IBD remains unclear. Environmental factors, a genetic predisposition and a disturbed immunological response all contribute to the development of the disease. Even though pathogens have not been identified as a cause of IBD, persistent infections are highly suspected, including Mycobacterium paratuberculosis and measles virus in CD, and an unknown bacterial infection and/ or bacterial products in UC. Smoking has been suggested to be a strong risk factor in CD, and in determining the clinical course of UC and CD. Disturbances of the mucosal immune system and an imbalance of immune regulation presented by cellular and/ or humoral abnormalities as well as functions of pro-inflammatory cytokines and anti-inflammatory cytokines, and other mediators were observed in IBD patients and are considered to be fundamental to the pathogenesis of IBD. Because of the multiplicity and complexity of the interactions of all these elements, it is difficult to distinguish between primary and secondary, and pathogenic and non-pathogenic phenomena[248]. With the development of transgenic and knockout rodent models, it is possible to define the critical immune elements necessary to develop IBD. Recent studies demonstrated that mucosal homeostasis is important and a defective mucosal barrier may allow unrestrained uptake of luminal antigens and pro-inflammatory molecules and thus initiate immune responses. Some evidence for an imbalance of pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokines and of Th1/Th2 lymphocytes have been found in chronic intestinal inflammation. pANCA are present in more than 70% of UC patients, but their role as a subclinical marker of UC needs to be confirmed. As to genetic factors, epidemiological studies have demonstrated the influence of genetic factors on the development of IBD by phenomena such as ethnic variations, familial aggregation, monozygotic twins versus dizygotic twins, and first degree relatives versus spouses. A genetic influence weights more for CD t

BACKGROUND Occult hepatitis C virus(HCV) infection(OCI) may be associated with extrahepatic diseases and it is known that the patients with chronic kidney disease(CKD) who are on hemodialysis(HD) present a higher prevalence of this type of infection than the general population, with a worse clinical ***, there are no data in the literature to assess the presence of OCI in patients prior to the initiation of renal replacement therapy(RRT). Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the occurrence and epidemiological aspects of OCI in patients with Predialysis CKD. We hypothesize that this infection could occur before RRT *** To research the status in predialysis patients when HD patients have high prevalence of *** A cross-sectional study was conducted between 2015 and 2017. Adults with creatinine clearance < 60 mL/min·1.73 m^2(predialysis patients) were recruited to the study. Pregnant and postpartum women, patients with glomerulopathies,and patients showing positivity for serological markers of hepatitis B virus(HBV), HCV or human immunodeficiency virus infection were excluded. Patients were diagnosed with OCI according to test results of anti-HCV antibody negativity and HCV RNA positivity in either ultracentrifuged serum or, if serumnegative, in peripheral blood mononuclear *** Among the 91 total patients included in the study, the prevalence of OCI was 16.5%. Among these 15 total OCI patients, 1 was diagnosed by 14 ultracentrifuged serum results and 14 were diagnosed by peripheral blood mononuclear cell results. Compared to the non-OCI group, the OCI patients presented higher frequency of older age(P = 0.002), patients with CKD of mixed etiology(P = 0.019), and patients with markers of previous HBV infection(i.e.,combined positivity for anti-hepatitis B core protein antibody and anti-hepatitis B surface protein antibody)(P = 0.001).CONCLUSION Among predialysis patients, OCI involved the elderly, patients with CKD of mixed eti
