Objective To investigate the expression of cyclin D3 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and their clinical significance in mal ignant melanoma. Methods The expression of cyclin D3 and PCNA was measured by streptavidin-peroxidase complex immunohistochemical technique in 57 cases of pri mary cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM), 37 cases of metastatic melanoma and 20 cases of benign nevi. Results The positive expression rate of cyclin D3 in CM M and metastatic melanoma were 35.1% and 59.5% respectively, while the high expr ession rate of PCNA were 57.9% and 78.6% respectively. Compared with that in ben ign nevi, the expression of cyclin D3 and PCNA was significantly increased. The expression of cyclin D3 and PCNA in CMM was positively related to Clark′s grade and the metastasis to lymph nodes. The 3-year survival rate in patients with ne gative expression of cyclin D3 was significantly higher than that with positive expression in superficial melanomas. The 3-year survival rate of patients with l ow expression of PCNA was significantly higher than that with high expression in CMM. The expression of cyclin D3 was positively correlated with the high expres sion of PCNA in superficial and metastatic melanomas. Conclusions The expressi on of cyclin D3 and PCNA may be involved in the carcinogenesis process and progr ession of CMM and have important implications in the selection of therapeutic re gimens and prognostic assessment. The expression level of cyclin D3 may be regar ded as a prognostic factor for superficial melanoma.

OBJECTIVE:To analyze the differences of drug instructions between hospital directory and OTC standard model in-structions,and to provide reference for enhancing instruction management and reducing the safety risk of clinical drug use. METH-ODS:1 324 drugs of hospital directory in a hospital in 2014 were compared with OTC directory from CFDA websites. The instruc-tion of drug types included in OTC directory were compared OTC model instruction. According to the degree of risks which the dif-ferences may bring,differences were divided into four levels for analysis as negligible,general,important and severe. RESULTS:244 drugs belonged to OTC,of which 32.38%were different from standard model instructions. The four risk levels rates of negligi-ble,general,important and severe accounted for 29.11%,34.18%,7.59% and 29.11%,respectively. Among important risk,the difference of“indication limit”occupied the highest proportion,being 50.00%. Among severe risk,the difference of“forbidden for special disease”and“forbidden for pregnant women”accounted for 43.48% and 39.13%. CONCLUSIONS:There are problems, such as the absence of important medication information,statement conflicts. The hospital and administration departments should en-hance the standard management of drug instruction to guarantee safe and rational drug use in the clinic.

Objective To determine the effect of different types of Helicobacter pylori(H, pylori) on the gap junction intercellular communication (GJIC) in GES-1 cells, and investigate the types of H. pylorirelated to the dysfunction of GJIC. Methods Different types of H. pylori clinical strains were isolated and cultured, including the East Asian CagA-positive H. pylori( East Asian CagA +H. pylorl), Western CagA-positive H. pylori( Western CagA +H. pylori), and the CagA-negative H. pylori (CagA-H. pylori). We co-cultured these H. pyloristrains with GES-1 cells for 24 and 48h, respectively. The control group was cultured without any H. pylorifor 24 and 48 h. Change of the GJIC function in GES-1 cells was detected by the scrape-loading dye transfer (SLDT) technique. The cell proliferation of each group was examined by the methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Results The control group showed better GJIC function in the GES-1 cells, and the fluorescent dye migrated 4 - 5 rows to the adjacent cells at 24 and 48 h. Compared with the control group, the GJIC function of GES-1 cells in the CagA - H. pylori group decreased and the fluorescent dye migrated 3 rows to the adjacent cells. Compared with the control group and the CagA- H. pylori group, the GJIC function of GES-1 cells in the Western CagA + H. pylori group decreased and the fluorescent dye migrated 1 - 2 rows to the adjacent cells. The East Asian CagA * H. pylori group showed no GJIC function or weak GJIC function, and most of the fluorescent dye was confined to the area of scratched single row cells and only a few migrated 1 -2 rows to the adjacent cells. Difference in the cell proliferation between the CagA - H. pylorigroup and the control group was not significant. The cell proliferation of the Western CagA + H. pylori group and the East Asian CagA + H. pylori group at bacterium-to-cell ratio of 100:1 and 200:1 was higher than that of the control group. The cell proliferation of the East Asian CagA +H. pylori group at bacterium-to-cell ratio of 400:1 was significantly lower than that of the control group at 48 h. Conclusion H. pylorican inhibit the GJIC function in GES-1 cells, which may be associated with CagA +H. pylori, especially with East Asian CagA +H. pylori. The effect of H. pylori on the proliferation of GES-I cells is related to virulence factor CagA.

Objective To construct the eukaryotic expression vector harboring the fragment of Alia gene, and to investigate the effects of it on the signal of quorum sensing and virulence factors producted by Pseudomonas aeruginosa(Pa). Methods The plasmid pET-AiiA was cutted by Nhe Ⅰ and Xho Ⅰ , then the AiiA fragment was cloned into eukaryotic expression vector pEGFP-N2. After the plasmid was transfected into A549 cells, the protein was extracted and AiiA protein was found in it by Western blot. After the extrac- tion was admixed into the LB broth, from culture supernatant extracts of Pa, the N-acylhomoserine lactone (AHL) was detected by bioassay, and the expression of pyocyanin and elastase were assayed by RT-PCR and optical density. Results The fragment of AiiA gene was cutted and then cloned into pEGFP-N2. AiiA protein was found in the transfected cells. After admixed with the extract harboring AiiA protein, in Pa medium, the AHL was hydrolyzed, and the expression of pyocyanin and elastase were reduced. Conclusion The virulence factors synthesized by Pa were reduced by the AiiA protein expressed in eukaryotic cell.

In order to evaluate the left ventricular remodeling in patients with myocardial infarction after revascularization with intravenous real-time myocardial contrast echocardiography (RT-MCE), intravenous RT-MCE was performed on 20 patients with myocardial infarction before coronary revascularization. Follow-up echocardiography was performed 3 months after coronary revascularization. Segmental wall motion was assessed using 18-segment LV model and classified as normal, hypokinesis, akinesis and dyskinesis. Myocardial perfusion was assessed by visual interpretation and divided into 3 conditions: homogeneous opacification=1; partial or reduced opaciflcation or subendocardial contrast defect=2; constrast defect=3. Myocardial perfusion score index (MPSI) was calculated by dividing the total sum of contrast score by the total number of segments with abnormal wall motion. Twenty patients were classified into 2 groups according to the MPSI: MPSI1.5 as poor myocardial perfusion. To assess the left ventricular remodeling, the following comparisons were carried out: (1) Comparisons of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV) and left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) before and 3 months after revascularization in two groups; (2) Comparisons of LVEF, LVESV and LVEDV pre-revascularization between two groups and comparisons of these 3 months post-revascularization between two groups; (3) Comparisons of the differences in LVEF, LVESV and LVEDV between 3 months post-and pre-revascularization (DeltaLVEF, DeltaLVESV and DeltaLVEDV) between two groups; (4) The linear regression analysis between DeltaLVEF, DeltaLVESV, DeltaLVEDV and MPSI. The results showed that the LVEF obtained 3 months after revascularization in patients with MPSI>1.5 was obviously lower than that in those with MPSI1.5 was obviously larger than that in those with MPSI1.5 and those with MPSI Echocardiography/*methods ; Infusions, Intravenous ; Myocardial Infarction/*diagnosis ; Myocardial Infarction/pathology ; Myocardial Infarction/*ultrasonography ; Myocardial Reperfusion ; Myocardium/*pathology ; Perfusion ; Regression Analysis ; Time Factors ; Ventricular Remodeling
