Background and purpose:Apollon gene is highly expressed in leukemia and other tumors. The study aimed to discuss whether RNAi technology can reverse multidrug resistance of chronic myeloid leukemia cell line K562 through constructing a eukaryotic vector of short hairpin RNA (shRNA) targeting at Apollon gene. Methods:The eukaryotic vector pGPHI-GFP-Neo-Apollon with shRNA targeting at Apollon gene was constructed and then transfected into K562 cells by LipofectamineTM2000, and G418 pressure selection. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and immunolfuorescence were used to detect the expression of Apollon mRNA and protein after Apollon was transfected stably in K562 cells. The changes of sensitivity of K562 cells to leurocristine (VCR) and etoposide (VP16) after transfection with shRNA-Apollon were detected by MTT method, and the apoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry. Results: pGPHI-GFP-Neo-Apollon carrier was constructed successfully and expressed stably in K562 cells, and after G418 screening, it silenced Apollon mRNA and protein expression effectively. According to the result of MTT, the sensitivity of K562 cells to VCR and VP16 increased significantly in the group of gene interference, with half of its inhibition concentration (half-inhibitory, IC50) value signiifcantly lower than the control group (P<0.05);Flow cytometry showed that the cell apoptosis rate was increased signiifcantly (P<0.05), but there was no statistically signiifcant difference in the apoptosis rate between shRNA negative control group and normal control group (P>0.05). Conclusion:pGPHI-GFP-Neo-Apollon carrier can enhance the abilities of VCR and VP16 to induce the apoptosis of K562 cells, namely an increase of sensitivity to these chemotherapeutics in K562 cells, it is hinted that RNA interference targeting Apollon gene may reverse the multidrug resistance of leukemia cells in some degree.

Objective To discuss the intervention effect of four oral care model on compliance of atomizing inhalation and mouth and throat complications in outpatient infants and young children patients. Methods A total of 480 cases of children patients using budesonide inhalation for the treatment of respiratory tract infection were divided into the observation group(n=260)and the control group (n=220) according to the time sequence. The control group received conventional nursing, the observation group used quaternity oral care model in nursing care. The compliance and occurrence of complications in the mouth and throat were observed between the two groups. Results In the observation group with nebulae inhalation compliance was 79.2% (206/260), evidently higher than that in the control group the compliance of 58.6%(129/220) (χ2=23.97,P<0.01). The incidence of oral herpes and ulcers in the control group was 2.73%(6/220), and 0.77%(2/260) in the observation group, but no significant difference was seen (χ2=2.79, P>0.05). The incidence of thrushes was 3.64%(8/220) in the control group, and none occurred in the observation group, which showed significant difference (χ2=9.62, P<0.01). Conclusions Using quaternity oral care model in corticosteroid nebulae inhalation patientscan increase compliance and decreasecomplications of oral and throat of outpatient children.

Objective:To analyze clinical characteristics, treatment, and prognosis of B-cell lymphoma, unclassifiable, with features in-termediate between diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and Burkitt lymphoma (DLBCL/BL). Methods:The clinical and pathological data of 13 DLBCL/BL patients, who were treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between January 2013 and December 2014, were collected. Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Through the log-rank test, survival curves were compared among groups classified by clinical stage, age, serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) lev-el, international prognostic index (IPI) score, or first chemotherapy regimen. Results:Among the 13 patients with DLBCL/BL, 12 pa-tients showed extra-nodal involvement. The median OS and PFS were only 10 and 6 months, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that the LDH levels and IPI scores exerted statistically significant effects on prognosis. Some borderline differences in survival were not-ed among the CHOP, CHOP-like, and intensive chemotherapy groups. Conclusion:DLBCL/BL is an aggressive B-cell lymphoma with a short survival time. The majority of patients presented extra-nodal involvement. DLBCL/BL did not respond well to CHOP or CHOP-like regimen, and more intensive chemotherapy may improve survival. Elevated LDH levels and high IPI scores were predictors of poor sur-vival.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of serum FER, AFP and AFP-L3 alone or in combination for diagnosis of primary hepatic carcinoma( PHC).Methods This was a case-control study.
Serum FER, AFP and AFP-L3 were determined in 212 patients with PHC ( StageⅠ45 cases, StageⅡ78 cases, StageⅢ81 cases, StageⅣ8 cases) , 127 patients with cirrhosis, 101 patients with chronic hepatitis and 98 controls in the Beijing Youan Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2014 to December 2014.Levels of FER, AFP and AFP-L3 were measured by chemiluminescence, while serum samples were pre-treatment with affinity adsorption before AFP-L3 detection.FER, AFP and AFP-L3 levels were analyzed using the nonparametric Wilcoxon test among all groups.Diagnostic performance were analyzed among the groups with the three biomarkers independently and combined.Logistic regression, plotted ROC curve and calculated the area under ROC curve ( AUC) were applied to assess the diagnostic value of each index.Results Serum concentration of FER in PHC, cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis groups and healthy controls were 308.45 ( 148.98 -662.80 ) , 151.70 ( 51.44 -507.40 ) , 298.20 ( 157.30 -701.80 ) , 113.50( 54.98-221.38) μg/L, respectively.The concentration of AFP were 48.50(5.25 -748.40), 3.91(1.80-17.53), 4.76 (2.29-30.56), 2.57 (0.93-3.68) μg/L in each group.The serum levels of AFP-L3 in each group were 4.75(0.61-127.95), 0.61 (0.61-2.50), 0.61 (0.61-2.85), 0.61 (0.61-0.61) μg/L.The concentration of FER, AFP and AFP-L3 differs statistically in PHC, cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis group and healthy controls (χ2 =67.66,146.31,119.02,P<0.001).The content of serum FER, AFP and AFP-L3 increased gradually as the stage level aggravating ( StageⅠ-Ⅳ) , there was significant differences among groups (χ2 =21.63,22.68,21.98, P<0.001) .When using one serum marker, FER had the highest sensitivity (75.00%) , while AFP-L3 had the highest specificity (82.52%). While using two serum markers, FER/AFP had the highest sensitivity (89.15%) , FER+AFP-L3 and AFP+AFP-L3 had a higher specificity (86.20%).The combined detection of FER/AFP/AFP-L3 improved the sensitivity of the test to 89.15%, while FER+AFP+AFP-L3 had a specificity of 86.50%.The AUC of combination of FER, AFP and AFP-L3 was 0.803 ±0.019 (95% CI:0.765-0.841), which was higher than the AUC of either FER(0.748 ±0.022,95% CI:0.705-0.790, Z=4.67,P<0.001) and AFP-L3 (0.726 ±0.024,95% CI: 0.679 -0.772, Z=3.64,P<0.001).However, there was no significant difference in AUC between AFP alone ( 0.776 ±0.021, 95% CI: 0.735 -0.818 ) and the combined detection ( Z=1.34, P=0.18 ) .Conclusions FER was a potential marker for PHC diagnosis.The combination of FER, AFP and AFP-L3 has higher value of clinical applications than one of them independently.

Background and purpose:Extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) is a form of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. The ENKTL incidence in China is much higher than that in the Western countries. The disease is highly malignant, not sensitive to chemotherapy, has short survival period and poor prognosis. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection has close relationship with the development of the disease. However, there are still a few patients without EBV infection. This study aimed to discuss the clinical features and prognosis of EBV-encoded small RNA (EBER) in situ hybridization negative ENKTL.Methods:From Aug. 2011 to Oct. 2015, 326 cases were diagnosed with ENKTL from the First Affliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. The expression of EBER was detected by in situ hy-bridization technique. The clinical pathological characteristics and prognosis of EBER-negative patients were analyzed. Results:In 326 patients with ENKTL, the negative rate of EBER was 2.45% (8/326). In 8 EBER-negative patients, the median survival time was 17 months. The log-rank test revealed that there was a signiifcant difference between EBER-negative and EBER-positive curves (χ2=6.407,P=0.011). Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis showed that in EBER-negative ENKTL, only lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) predicted survival time (P=0.008). EBV-DNA copy number in plasma was not signiifcantly correlated with survival time (P>0.05).Conclusion:The inci-dence of EBER-negative ENKTL is low. Patients with EBER-negative ENKTL have poorer prognosis than EBER-posi-tive patients. Elevated LDH may be a factor indicating poor prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of detecting Epstein Barr virus (EBV) infection in evaluating recent curative and long-term effects in patients with extranodal natural killer (NK)/T-cell lymphoma. Methods:The EBV-DNA copies in the plasma of 109 patients, who were pathologically and immunohistochemically diagnosed with extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between January 2011 and April 2014, were monitored via quantitative re-al-time polymerase chain reaction. Subsequently, the difference in recent curative and long-term effects between EBV positive and EBV negative patients was compared. Results:Among the 109 patients with extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, 34 (64.2%) cases of EBV posi-tive patients were at the advanced stage (Ⅲ~Ⅳ stages), and 22 (39.3%) cases of EBV negative patients were at the terminal stage (Ⅲ~Ⅳstages). EBV positive patients who accompanied by B symptoms were 33 (62.3%) , and there were 21 (37.5%) cases with B symptoms in EBV negative patients, the differences between stages and B symptoms were statistically significant. The attained objec-tive response rate of the EBV-DNA negative patients (34, 60.7%) was significantly higher than that of the EBV-DNA positive patients (22, 41.5%) (P<0.05). Similarly, the 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate of EBV negative patients was better than that of EBV positive patients (P<0.05). Conclusion:Detecting EBV in plasma has clinical significance in evaluating the recent curative effect and the 2-year PFS rate in patients diagnosed with extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma.
