Extranodal nasal type NK/T cell lymphoma (ENKTL) is a highly aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma.Due to its low occurrence even in prevalent areas,there has been no large sample randomized controlled clinical trials.Therefore,no standard therapeutic strategy is currently identified in this disease.Tumor cells are insensitive to conventional anthracyclines-containing chemotherapy because of high expression of multi-drug resistant gene 1.Regimens that incorporate the use of L-asparaginase or gemcitabine result in substantial improvements in overall response rate and are promising treatment for ENKTL.Targeted therapy,immunomodulatory therapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation are still under research.

Objective To study the effect of combining recombinet interferon α -2b gel and loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) to treat cervical intraepithehal neoplasia (CIN). Methods Prospective, randomly and control study was progressed in 80 patients with CIN Ⅱ-Ⅲ. Before carrying out LEEP, all women were performed high-risk HPV DNA detection by the method of HC2. Among them, forty women were. assigned to be the study group, in which the patients were added to use recombinet interferon α -2b gel for three courses of treatment before and after LEEP, the other forty women who carried out LEEP simply were assigned to be the control group. All patients were examined by hquid-based thinprep cytology test (TCT) and colposcopic site-specific biopsies to doubtful focus of infection in the 3rd, 6th, 9th and 12th month after treatment, and judged the effect by using HC2 in the 6th and 12th month after treatment. Results Eighty patients were not detected residue and recidivafion of CIN diagnosed by coiposcopic site-specific biopsies to doubtful focus of infection. In the study group, 3 women were abnormal detected by TCT, 37 women were negative detected by HC2, the negative rate was 92.5% when LEEP ended 6 months. The cure rate was 100.0% when LEEP ended 12 months. In the control group, 21 women were abnormal detected by TCT, 19 women were negative detected by HC2, the negative rate was 47.5% when LEEP ended 6 months, 8 women were negative detected by TCT, 25 women were negative detected by HC2, the cure rate was 62.5% when LEEP ended 12 months.In the 6th and 12th month after LEEP, the difference was distinguished in the cure rate between two groups. Conclusions There is double interrupted effects by combining recombinets interferon α -2b gel and LEEP to treat CIN. It can raise the one-time cure rate of the patients with CIN.

Purpose To investigate the clinicopathlogic characteristic, diagnosis and histogenesis of pancreatic solid-pseudopapillary tumors ( SPPT) . Methods Combined with relevant literature, the clinical history, histopathological features and immunohistochemi-cal characteristics were analyzed in 11 cases of SPPT. Results There were 10 female patients and only 1 male in total 11 cases, aged from1 7 to 60 years (mean 33). The sizes of tumors were from 3. 2 to 10. 0 cm. Histologically, they were composed of papillary and microcysticsolid structures. Pseudopapillary with a fibrovascular core was remarkable. Immunohistochemically, the tumors expressed EMA (1/11), vimentin (10/11), NSE (11/11), Syn (7/11), CgA (1/11), CD56 (11/11), CD10 (11/11), PR (9/11), CD99 (9/11),α-AT (11/11),β-catenin (11/11), E-cadherin (11/11), Cyclin D1 (11/11), c-Myc (11/11). 6 patients were followed up for a period of 20 to 112 months, and they were all alive and had no recurrence and metastasis. Conclusions SPPT is a tumor with low malignancy of the pancreas that most frequently affect young females. SPPT may be derived from multipotent stem cells and closely related withβ-catenin signaling pathway. Pathological morphology and immunohistochemistry are very important to the diag-nosis and differential diagnosis of SPPT.

Objective To investigate the drug resistance,source and molecular epidemiology of methicillin-resistant Staphyloccus aureus(MRSA)causing nosocomial infection. Methods Fifty-seven pathogenic MRSA strains were isolated from Beijing Tongren Hospital during 2007 and 2008.K-B method,MIC assay,multiple PCR,automatic repetitive element sequence-based PCR(REP-PCR)typing platform and DL MRSA Library were used to identify the resistant phenotypes,Panton-Valentine leukocidin gene (pvl)and REP-PCR types of the MRSA.Results All strains were classified as 6 antibiotic resistant phenotypes(a-f)based on the resistance to rifampin,clindamycin,levofloxacin and cotrimoxazole.The MRSAs with Staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec(SCCmec)Ⅲ and SCCmec Ⅱ accounted for 91.23% (52/57)and 5.26%(3/57)of all strains,respectively.Only one strain was pvl positive.All strains were typed as REP-A-F(6 types)and three single clones by automatic REP-PCR typing platform,in which REP-C was predominant(30/57,52.63%).Three out of 6 REP-D strains were from laryngology wards.The REP-C-SCCmec Ⅲ were genetically most close to the Brazilian clone-SCCmec Ⅲ in DL MRSA Library.Conclusion s REP-C-SCCmec Ⅲ-a type are the major epidemic hospital-associated MRSA and the REP-D-SCCmec Ⅲ-d is usually isolated from patients received laryngeal surgery. Automatic REP-PCR typingplatform combined with DL MRSA Library database is an effective approach to study the nosocomial infection.

This study is to investigate the antitumor activity of CIP-36 on multidrug resistant human oral squamous carcinoma cell line (KBV200 cells) in vitro and the possible anticancer mechanisms. MTT assay, Hoechst fluorescein stain, RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry were carried out on KBV200 and KB cells. The growth of many tumor cells was obviously inhibited by CIP-36, especially the multidrug resistant cells KBV200. Obvious apoptosis could be observed in the Hoechst 33342 staining experiments. The results of RT-PCR showed that the levels of p53, p21, caspase-3 and bax mRNA increased, and meanwhile the expression of mdr-1 and bcl-2 mRNA decreased in a dose-dependent manner. The data were significantly different from that of vehicle. The expression of P-gp significantly decreased with the increasing dosage of CIP-36 examined by immunohistochemistry. It can be concluded that CIP-36 could change resistance-related genes and proteins to overcome multidrug resistance in the KBV200 cell line.

Objective:To evaluate the changes of left ventricular (LV) myocardial systolic strain and twist motion including global longitudinal strain(GLS), global circumferential strain(GCS), global radial strain(GRS), global area strain(GAS), LV basal segment rotation angle (Rotation-basal), LV apical segment rotation angle (Rotation-apical), LV twist angle (Twist), LV torsion(Torsion) by three-dimensional speckle tracking imaging(3D-STI) in adult patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), and further to analyze the correlations between LV twist and its morphology and global systolic function.Methods:A total of 45 patients with HCM from the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University from September 2017 to June 2019 were enrolled. In addition, 50 healthy subjects were recruited as a control group. Left atrial dimension(LAD), interventricular septal end-diastole dimension(IVSD), LV posterior wall end-diastole dimension (LVPWD), LV mass index(LVMI) and other parameters were respectively measured by conventional two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography. LV end-diastole volume(EDV), LV end-systole volume(ESV), calculated stroke volume(SV) and LV ejection fraction (LVEF) were respectively measured by 3D transthoracic echocardiography. Full-volume 3D dynamic images were performed using matrix transducer X5-1. LV Rotation-basal, Rotation-apical, Twist and Torsion, GLS, GCS, GRS and GAS were respectively analyzed by off-line TomTec software. The differences of those parameters between the two groups were compared. The correlations between 3D-Torsion parameters and those parameters by two-dimensional echocardiography was further analyzed.Results:Compared with control group, LAD, IVSD, LVPWD and LVMI of HCM group were increased(all P<0.01), EDV, ESV, SV, LVEF and E/A were decreased(all P<0.01). Compared with control group, GLS, GCS and GRS of HCM group were decreased(all P<0.01). Rotation-basal, Rotation-apical, Twist and Torsion were increased(all P<0.01), and there was no significant difference of GAS between the two groups( P>0.05). In HCM group, IVSD was not correlated with Rotation-basal ( P>0.05), but negatively correlated with Rotation-apical, Twist and Torsion ( r=-0.327, -0.439, -0.374; all P<0.05); LVEF and LVMI were not correlated with Rotation-basal, Rotation-apical, Twist and Torsion (all P>0.05). Conclusions:①3D-STI can detect the earlier subtle changes of left ventricular three-dimensional systolic strain in HCM patients; ②LV three-dimensional Twist inereases considerably in HCM patients; ③LV Twist, Torsion and Rotation-apical are significantly decreased with the increase of IVSD in HCM patients; However, LVEF and LVMI are not significantly correlated with Rotation-basal, Rotation-apical, Twist and Torsion.

Objective To investigate the role of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signal transduction pathway on the up-regulation of the expression of acyl-coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferasel (ACAT1) induced by Chlamydia pneumoniae (C. pn), and to discuss the mechanism of macrophages-derived foam cell formation induced by C. pn. Methods C. pn was propagated in Hep-2 cells. THP-1 monocytes were induced into macrophages by 160 nmol/L phorbol myristate acetate(PMA) for 48 h, and were randomly allocated into four groups to be incubated continually: control group, C. pn infection group, C. pn and SP600125 (a special JNK inhibitor)group and SP600125 group. Lipid droplets in cytoplasm were observed by oil red O staining. The contents of intracellular cholesterol ester were detected by enzyme fluorescence analysis. The expressions of ACAT1 mRNA and protein were determined by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) and Western blot, respectively. Results Compared with the control group, the expressions of ACAT1 mRNA and protein were up-regulated in C. pn infection group [(4.16±0.26) vs. (2.17±0.18), (1.20±0.10)vs. (0.61±0.03), both P<0.05], and C. pn-induced foam cell formation was observed. The expressions of ACAT1 mRNA and protein and the foam cell formation were inhibited by SP600125 in a concentration-dependent manner (r = - 0.92, P<0.05; r= - 0. 96, P<0.05, respectively). Conclusions The up-regulation of ACAT1 expression is induced by C. pn via JNK signal transduction pathway, which is involved in the mechanism of C. pn-induced macrophage-derived foam cell formation.

AIM: To investigate the signal transduction mechanism of Chlamydia pneumoniae (Cpn) in down-regulating the expression of ATP binding cassette A1 (ABCA1) and ATP binding cassette G1 (ABCG1),the key molecules in cholesterol efflux and atherogenesis,from THP-1-derived macrophages. METHODS: Cpn was propagated in Hep-2 cells. THP-1 monocytes were induced into macrophages by 160 nmol/L phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) for 48 h,and were randomly allocated into 4 groups to incubate continually: control group,50 mg/L low density lipoprotein (LDL); Cpn infection group,Cpn (1×10~6 IFU) and 50 mg/L LDL; Cpn and SP600125 (a special JNK inhibiter) group,THP-1 macrophages were previously treated with different concentrations (1-20 μmol/L) of SP600125 for 1 h,and then infected with Cpn (1×10~6 IFU) and 50 mg/L LDL; SP600125 group,SP600125(20 μmol/L)and 50 mg/L LDL. The expressions of ABCA1/ABCG1 and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) from each group were detected then. The cholesterol efflux was detected by enzyme-fluorescence. The expressions of ABCA1/ABCG1 and PPARγ mRNA and protein were determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting,respectively. RESULTS: Cpn not only down-regulated the ABCA1/ABCG1 expression,but also down-regulated the expression of PPARγ,which regulated the ABCA1/ABCG1 genes transcriptions. However,the mentioned effects of Cpn infection were restrained by the special JNK inhibitor SP600125 in a dose-dependent manner. CONCLUSION: Chlamydia pneumoniae may down-regulate ABCA1/ABCG1 expression from THP-1-derived macrophages via JNK-PPARγ signal transduction pathway.
