Objective To evaluated the prevalence of EGFR mutations in Hubei region,to provide reliable experimental basis for reasonable screening TKI beneficiaries in clinic.Methods EGFR mutation of 253 patients diagnosed with NSCLC in Hu-bei region during 2010 to 2015 was detected by PCR-sanger sequencing and ARMS assay,to investigate the sensitivity of dif-ferent methods,to explore the frequency and clinical significance of EGFR mutation in different gender,in different histologi-cal type and different exons.Results 93 of 253 NSCLC patients harbored EGFR mutation,mainly occurred in exon 19 and 21,accounting for 53.76% and 35.38% of the total EGFR mutation rate,respectively.ADx-ARMS method showed higher sensitivity (P=0.001).The mutation detection rate of female NSCLC was significantly higher than that of male NSCLC (P=0.001).The observed incidence of EGFR mutations in patients with adenocarcinomas (38.01%)was the highest in differ-ent histological type,followed by glandular squamous cell carcinoma (30.77%),large cell carcinoma (20%)and squamous cell carcinoma (4.55%).Nonsmoking patients had a higher EGFR mutation frequency (51.6%,81/157)than those with a history of smoking (24%,12/50).Conclusion ARMS assay was more sensitive and more convenient detection method for clinical screening for EGFR-TKI treatment subpopulation.The mutation rate of female NSCLC was significantly higher than that of male NSCLC in Hubei Province.Speculated that the sexual differences in NSCLC with EGFR mutation frequencies were related to hormone levels and smoking status.

Objective To investigate the effect of rapamycin(RPM)on hepatic interleukin-10(IL-10)gene and acute liver injury in rats with postburn Staphylococcus aureus sepsis.Methods Fifty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups:normal control group,scald control group,postburn sepsis group,and RPM treatment group.Tissue samples from liver and plasma were collected to determine IL-10 mRNA and protein expressions,and liver function parameters were also measured.Results Compared to postburn Staphylococcus aureus sepsis group,in RPM treatment group hepatic IL-10 mRNA expression and plasma IL-10 were significantly increased at 0.5 hour after RPM treatment(P

Objective To evaluate and analyze the clinical application value of detection of Warfarin-related gene polymorphisms,cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) and Vitamin K epoxide reductase complex subunit 1 (VKORC1) polymorphisms.Methods From July of 2011 to July of 2012,the blood samples were randomly collected from 140 lung cancer patients from Department of Oncology in Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University.These lung cancer patients were diagnosed through imaging examination and pathological examination.CYP2C9 and VKORC1 polymorphisms were detected in 70 patients (studied group) but not detected in the other 70 patients (control group) before they used warfarin.According to known gene sequences of CYP2C9 and VKORC1,specific primers were designed to genotype the CYP2C9 *2 and CYP2C9 * 3 alleles as well as the VKORC1-1639G ＞ A polymorphism through PCR amplification and DNA sequencing.Meanwhile,the distribution of these alleles in the studied group was analyzed.The clinical significance of detection of these polymorphisms was evaluated by comparing the proportion of patients within the therapeutic INR (International Normalized Ratio) range between control and genotype-guided dosing groups using Chi square test after 2 and 4 weeks of Warfarin therapy.Results Based on the results of agarose gel electrophoresis of PCR products and DNA sequencing,the primers for CYP2C9 and VKORC1 polymorphisms were indeed specific to these SNPs (CYP2C9 * 1,CYP2C9 * 2 and CYP2C9 * 3 ;VKORC1-1639GG,VKORC1-1639AG and VKORC1-1639AA) and both of the specificity and sensitivity of these primers are 100％,thus contributiug for genotyping these alleles.The distribution of CYP2C9 * 1/* 1 was 100％,CYP2C9 * 1/* 2,CYP2C * 1/* 3,CYP2C9 * 2/* 2,CYP2C9 * 3/* 3 and CYP2C9 * 2/* 3 were 0％.The distribution of VKORC1-1639AG,VKORC1-1639AA and VKORC1-1639 GG were 10％,90％ and 0％ respectively.2 weeks after the treatment of Warfarin,85.7％ patients in the genotype-guided dosing group reached the stable therapeutic INR range,which was significantly higher than that in the control group (48.6％,x2 =21.9,P ＜ 0.01); 4 weeks later,all patients (100％) were inside the stable therapeutic INR range whereas only 65 patients (92.9％) in the control group reached the therapeutic INR range.No haemorrhage or thromboembolic events occurred in both groups.Conclusions CYP2C9 and VKORC1 polymorphisms can be accurately detected by PCR reaction with the designed primers and the subsequent DNA sequencing in patients with lung cancer.This method is validated to be reliable.The genotyping of the Warfarin-related genes detective method can effectively guide Warfarin-dosing.
