Purpose To investigate the clinical and morphological features as well as immunophenotype of pleomorphic lobular carcino-ma ( PLC) . Methods Seven cases of PLC were retrieved from 34 cases of invasive lobular carcinoma. The clinical data, histologic features, immunohistochemical findings were analyzed. Results The mean age of the patients was 56. 6 years, with a range of 47 to 74 years. PLC might be nodular mass in general macroscopy. Histologically, PLC retained classical or non-classical single cells, but exhibited a greater degree of cellular atypia and pleomorphism and a higher mitotic rate than classic invasive lobular carcinoma ( ILC) . PLC was accompanied by ductal carcinoma in situ ( DCIS) and pleomorphic lobular carcinoma in situ ( PLCIS) . Immunohistochemistry and HER-2 FISH were detected. PLC showed E-cadherin negative (7/7) and p120 cytoplasmic positive (7/7), ER (5/7), PR (5/7), and HER-2 (7/7) mostly negative. 5 cases were characterized by triple negative breast cancer, two of which are basal-like pheno-type. Some cases could be observed nerve invasion (3/7) and axillary lymph node metastasis (4/7). Conclusion PLC is a very rare subtype of invasive lobular carcinoma. In some cases there are nerve invasion and lymph node metastasis. The diagnosis of PLC de-pends on the pathological morphological and immunohistochemical markers.

In this study, the psbA-trnH sequence was used as DNA barcoding to evaluate the accuracy and stability for identification of Bamboo shavings, Concretio Silicea Bambusae and their closely related species. 56 samples were collected and conducted the DNA extraction. Obtained sequences were assembled using the CodonCode Aligner V4.2, the genetic distances and NJ tree were computed and constructed using MEGA 5.0. The results shows that the maximum intra-specific K2P distances were less than the minimum inter-specific K2P distances. The NJ tree indicated that Bamboo shavings, Concretio Silicea Bambusae and their closely related species can be distinguished from each other clearly, except for Bambusa tuldoides Munro and Bambusa textilis, which perhaps attributed to their closely genetic relationship.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on proliferation and inflammatory factors expression of human periodontal ligament stem cells (HPDLSCs).
METHODSHPDLSCs were cultivated and identified. Experiment was divided into 3 groups according to culture solution: Group A with alpha-MEM culture solution containing 10 microg.mL-1 LPS, group B with supernatant fluid containing 10ng.mL-1 LPS stimulated monocyte, group C with alpha-MEM culture solution. The proliferation ability of HPDLSCs was analyzed by MTF assay. The expression levels of interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha) mRNA of HPDLSCs were detected by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).
RESULTSHPDLSCs had clonality, bone and fat differentiation ability. Compared with group C, the proliferation ability of HPDLSCs of group A and group B was significantly inhibited, and the proliferation ability of HPDLSCs of group B were more significantly inhibited than that of group A (P<0.05). The expression of IL-1beta, IL-6 and TNF-alpha mRNA of group A and group B increased compared with the control group, and the expression of IL-1beta, IL-6 and TNF-alpha mRNA of group B increased more than that of group A (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONPorphyromonas gingivalis may inhibit the proliferation of HPDLSCs directly or indirectly through LPS and increase expression of inflammatory factor, exacerbate periodontal inflammatory tissue damage and delay the self-repairing of periodontal tissue.
