China Oncology 2006;0(07):-
Background and purpose:hMLH1 promoter methylation is one of the factors in the development of lung cancer.However,little is known about hMLH1 promoter methylation in association with chemotherapy resistance in lung cancer cells.This study aimed to investigate whether resistance to DDP can be overcame by restoring the expression of hMLH1 in A549/DDP cells after treatment with a demethylating agent,5-Aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-Aza-CdR).Methods:hMLH1 mRNA was determined by RT-PCR in A549,A549/DDP and A549/DDP treated with 5-Aza-CdR;MSP was carried out to determine the methylation status of hMLH1 in A549 and A549/DDP,A549/DDP treated with 5-Aza-CdR.MTT test,Hoechst 33258 staining and flow cytometry were used to determine the change of cell proliferation,apoptotic morphology and the cell apoptosis index,respectively.Results:hMLH1 mRNA was expressed higher in A549 than in A549/DDP.The unmethylation status of hMLH1 was observed in A549 cells whereas partial methylation status of hMLH1 in A549/DDP cells.After treatment with 5-Aza-CdR,the A549/DDP cells displayed an unmethylation of the hMLH1 gene.After the treatment with cisplatin,the IC50 of A549,A549/DDP and A549/DDP treated by 5-Aza-CdR were (4.7?0.7),(30.1?1.8) and (6.9?0.6)?mol/L,respectively.Apoptotic bodies were less in A549/DDP cells than in A549/DDP cells treated with the 5-Aza-CdR.The rate of apoptosis of A549/DDP treated by 5-Aza-CdR was higher than that of A549/DDP.Conclusion:The methylation of hMLH1 may be relevant to the resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy in the A549/DDP cell line.5-Aza-CdR can inhibit hMLH1 methylation,restore the expression of hMLH1,and enhance cell apoptosis as well as the inhibition of cell proliferation of A549/DDP cells after the treatment of cisplatin.

Objective To explore the influential factors of dangerous placenta previa pathogenesis,and to analyze their peri natal period outcomes.Methods The clinical data in 143 pregnant women and parturients of dangerous placenta previa(research group) and 286 pregnant women and parturients of non-dangerous placenta previa(control group) in our hospital from January 2011 to December 2015 were retrospectively analyzed.Results The average age of the research group was higher than that of the control group (t =2.92,P =0.004);the previous pregnancy frequency,previous parity,previous abortion frequency,previous cesarean delivery frequency and incidence of placenta previa in the research group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.01);the incidence of placenta previa in the research group was higher than that in the control group(x2 =7.60,P=0.006);the prenatal gestational weeks of the research group were lower than those of the control group(t=-12.33,P<0.01).The multi-factor analysis showed that the age,previous abortion frequency and previous cesarean delivery frequency were the influence factors of placenta previa occurrence.Among them,the previous cesarean delivery frequency was the main risk factor.The occurrence rates of antepartum hemorrhage,postpartum hemorrhage,uterine removal and premature infants in the research group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.01);The intraoperative blood loss of the research group was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05);the neonatal birth weight and the 1 min Apgar score of the research group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The age,previous abortion frequency and previous cesarean section frequency are related to the occurrence of dangerous placenta previa.

Objective To examine the effects of carbon dioxide (CO2) pneumoperitoneum on local pancreas pathological changes,serum levels of amylase,IL-1,IL-6,and the positive rate of dissolubility adhesion molecule (CD11a/CD18 and CD11b/CD18) expression in rats with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Methods Fifty healthy male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into 3 groups:CO2 pneumoperitoneum group (n=20):SAP was induced by injecting 5% sodium taurocholate through retrogradely common biliopancreatic ducts via duodenal papilla,and then CO2 pneumoperitoneum was established at a pressure of 12 mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa) for 30 min; SAP group (n=20):The rats were treated as same as CO2 pneumoperitoneum group,except CO2 pneumoperitoneum; Simple operation group (n=10):Laparotomy was performed and nothing was done to duodenum and pancreas except for moving them softly. The blood samples were collected for examining serum levels of amylase,IL-1,IL-6,and the positive rates of CD11a/CD18 and CD11b/CD18 expression,and histopathologic examination of pancreas was performed. Results Compared with simple operation group,the pancreatic pathologic histology score,serum levels of amylase,IL-1,IL-6,and the positive rates of CD11a/CD18 and CD11b/CD18 expression were significantly higher in CO2 pneumoperitoneum group and SAP group (P=0.000). The levels of IL-1 and IL-6 were significantly lower in CO2 pneumoperitoneum group as compared to SAP group (P=0.000). There was no significant difference between CO2 pneumoperitoneum group and SAP group in pancreatic pathologic histology score (P=0.294),the level of serum amylase (P=0.073),the positive rates of CD11a/CD18 (P=0.155) and CD11b/CD18 expression (P=0.201). Conclusion CO2 pneumoperitoneum has inhibitory effect on the levels of IL-1 and IL-6,rather than the positive rates of CD11a/CD18 and CD11b/CD18 expression in SD rats with SAP.

METHODS Using K-B agar diffusion method and confirmed test to detect the drug resistance and distributions of ESBLs-producing K.pneumoniae and E.coli. RESULTS Among 582 K.pneumoniae and E.coli isolates,128(22%) were ESBLs-producing strains.For E.coli,the ratio was 17.5%,while K.pneumoniae was 28.3%.The sensitive rate of K.pneumoniae to imipenem was 100%. CONCLUSIONS ESBLs-producing K.pneumoniae and E.coli are the most common species causing infections,and imipenem is the best choice.

Objective To evaluate the value of three dimensional reconstruction images of rotational DSA on measuring aneurysmal necks and make a comparison with traditional DSA so as to provide more abundant and accurate informations for the enbolization of aneurysm. Methods A comparison was made between the measurement of aneurismal necks from 14 cases with traditional DSA examination and a measurement made on three dimensional reconstruction images of the same patient. Results There was a difference shown in the measurment of the aneurysmal necks between three dimensional reconstruction images of rotational DSA and those of traditional DSA, outcoming with more angles and data on three dimensional reconstruction images. Conclusions There are more angles of aneurysmal neck can be shown on rotational 3D DSA especially for the demonstration of the largest aneurysmal neck with a directional value for the intervention.

Objective To screen a kind of microorganism which is low poisonous for living creature but has high molluscicidal effect. Methods The Xanthobacter autotrophicus from the soil where Oncomelania hupensis lived were detached, then its molluscicidal effect against the snails were studied by the immersing and contacting methods, respectively. Results The death rates were 1.3%-95.0% immersed for 24 to 72 hours in the different density liquids (1?106,2?106,3?106,4?106 cfu/ml). The LD_~50 immersed for 48 hours was 2.6?106 cfu/ml. The death rates had obviously positive relationship with the immersing time and the density of the liquid. Conclusion The liquid which contains more than 106 cfu/ml Xanthobacter autotrophicus has a stable molluscicidal capacity, and the immersing method is better than the contacting method.[

Objective To study the experience in prevention and treatment of iatrogenic bile duct trauma(IBDT). Methods A retrospective study was made on the clinical data of 118 patients with iatrogenic bile duct trauma admitted to the Hunan Provincial People's Hospital from March 1990 to September 2000. Results 50.8% (60/118) of patients with IBDT resulted from the wrong identification of the anatomy of the Calot' Triangle during cholecystectomy. The clinical diagnosis of IBDT depended on the clinical findings, diagnostic abdominocentesis and image examination. The diagnostic rate of ultrasonography for IBDT was 93.2%(110/118). According to the injury site of bile duct, IBDT could be divided into 6 types, the most common type of IBDT was resection of partical hepatic duct and part common bile duct(type Ⅲ) which occurred in 83.9% (99/118) of the patients. The cure rate of IBCT was 100%(118/118) in this series due to the choice of operation according to the trauma type. Conclusions The key of prevention to IBDT lies in abiding by the princible of “identifying-cut-recognazing” during cholecystectomy. The choice for surgical operative procedure should agree with the trauma type.
