1.Estrogen receptor coregulators and their roles in resistance to endocrine therapy of breast cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2012;39(1):31-34
The estrogen receptor (ER) coregulators regulate the transcriptional activities of ER,and then affect the transcription and translation of target genes mediated by ER.ER coregulators not only plays an important role in the initiation,progression and metastasis of breast cancer,but also involves in the response to endocrine therapy of breast cancer via the genomic and nongenomic function.

Chinese Journal of Infection Control 2014;(5):271-273
Objective To evaluate the correlation between serum procalcitonin concentration and systemic inflam-matory response syndrome (SIRS)score in patients with bacterial bloodstream infection.Methods In January-De-cember,2012,96 patients with bacterial bloodstream infection in a hospital were selected as trial group,and these patients were divided into three groups(group A,B and C)according to SIRS score;84 patients without bacterial in-fection was as control group,PCT concentration of all patients were detected,and the correlation between PCT con-centration and SIRS score was analyzed.Results Among 96 patients with bacterial bloodstream infection,7 (7.29%)died (4 were in group B and 3 in group C);there was no death case in control group.PCT concentration in control group,group A,B and C of trial group were (0.28±0.09)ng/mL,(0.63±0.13)ng/mL,(3.68±1.01)ng/mL,and(7.45±1.53)ng/mL,respectively,the difference between each group was significant(P<0.01).Pairwise comparison of four groups showed statistical difference (P<0.001).Spearman correlation analysis on PCT concen-tration and SIRS score was conducted,correlation coefficient r=0.874(P<0.001)suggested positive correlation be-tween serum PCT concentration and SIRS score.Conclusion PCT concentration in patients with bacterial blood-stream infection and SIRS score is positively correlated,PCT concentration and SIRS score can be used as two mark-ers for assessing the extent and prognosis of bacterial bloodstream infection.

Objective To investigate the distribution and the antibiotic resistance genes carried by classⅠintegron and insertion sequence common region(ISCR1)among clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii. Methods Fifty-one clinical isolates of multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii were collected. Polymerase chain reaction method was used to detect the classⅠintegrase gene, variable region of classⅠintegron, ISCR1 and genes related to antibiotics resistance lo-cated downstream of ISCR1 in 51 multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii. Antibiotics resistance genes carried by classⅠintegron and ISCR1 were performed by DNA sequencing. The relationship between classⅠintegron and ISCR1 was detected by PCR-mapping. Results Among 51 multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolates, 45 strains were found con-taining classⅠintegrase genes, 32 strains were found containing variable regions. Sequencing results showed that the gene cassette arrays were aacA4-catB8-aadA1, aacC1-orfA-orf-B-aadA1 and blaPSE-1-aadA2-cmlA1-aadA1. Twenty-two strains were found containing ISCR1 and 5 strains were found containing resistance genes located downstream of ISCR1. DNA sequencing results showed the resistant gene of qnrA1-ampR. The results of PCR-mapping showed that ISCR1 located directly downstream of 3' conserved segment of classⅠintegron in 20 Acinetobacter baumannii strains. Conclusion ClassⅠintegron and ISCR1 play an important role in mechanisms of drug resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii. ClassⅠintegron and ISCR1 could connect in series in Acinetobacter baumannii.

Pressure-support ventilation (PSV) is a form of important ventilation mode. Patient-ventilator synchrony of pressure support ventilation can be divided into inspiration-triggered and expiration-triggered ones. Whether the ventilator can track the patient's inspiration and expiration very well or not is an important evaluating item of the performance of the ventilator. The ventilator should response to the patient's inspiration effort on time and deliver the air flow to the patient under various conditions, such as different patient's lung types and inspiration effort, etc. Similarly, the ventilator should be able to response to the patient's expiration action, and to decrease the patient lung's internal pressure rapidly. Using the Active Servo Lung (ASL5000) respiratory simulation system, we evaluated the spontaneous breathing of PSV mode on E5, Servo i and Evital XL. The following parameters, the delay time before flow to the patient starts once the trigger variable signaling the start of inspiration, the lowest inspiratory airway pressure generated prior to the initiation of PSV, etc. were measured.

Objective:To study the effect of the three kinds of EE on the cognitive function and the expression of SYN and MAP-2,and the dentritic growth of pyramidal cells of the cerebral cortex in rats.Method:Forty-eight male SD rats were divided into preserving the physique EE group (EE1),preserving the spirit EE group (EE2),preservation for both physique and spirit EE group(EE3) and standard group (SE),12 rats in each group.Rats were put into the three kinds of EE or standard cages after pre-training.The environmental enrollment lasted for 14 days and followed by a 6-days Morris water maze test.After the Morris water maze test,all the rats were sacrificed for histological study,including using the immunohistochemistry method to detect the expression of SYN and MAP-2,and using the Golgi-Cox staining to study the dentritic growth of pyramidal cells in cerebral cortex.Result:In the Morris water maze,the EE3 group exhibited shorter escape latency than the MCAO+SE group (P<0.05) on day 5,while no significant differences were seen for the time spent in the target quadrant among the 4 groups (P> 0.05).The results of immunohistochemical staining of SYN showed that the expression of SYN was the lowest in the SE group,and there was no significant difference between EE1 and EE3 groups but significantly higher than the EE2 group.The expression of MAP-2 was the lowest in the SE group,and there was no significant difference of expression between EE1 and EE2 groups but significantly lower than the EE3 group.The results of Golgi-Cox staining showed that there was no difference of the dentritic branch among groups in mPFC (P> 0.05) while the spine density of the EE1 group was significantly greater than that of the SE and EE2 groups (P < 0.05),but significantly lower than that of the EE3 group (P < 0.05).Conclusion:Two weeks of preservation from both physique and spirit EE can improve the cognitive function,and promote the expression of MAP-2 and SYN and the dentritic growth of pyramidal cells in normal rats.
