The therapy to different type of breast cancer has resulted in chemoresistance which is induced by auto-phagy.Autophagy, to tumor’s generation, is a double edged sword, and it can result to chemoresistance and auto-phagic cell death through interaction with apoptosis in breast cancer chemotherapy.However, autophagy may be unrelated to chemoresistance.It will be a key research point to further explore the relationship and mechanism be-tween autophagy and chemoresistance.

For investigation on the lactose absorption and tolerance in milk and yogurt, 30 healthy adults were tested by a non-invasive and sensitive hydrogen breath test after drinking half a pound of each daily separately. The results showed that 4 persons absorbed the lactose in the milk completely (13.3%), but 26 showed malabsorption (86.7%), among them, 1 case was slight malabsorption (3.3%), 16 moderate (53.3%) and 9 severe in degree (30%). The intolerance rate and intolerance index of lactose in milk were 53.3% and 0.9; but 6.7% and 0.067 in yogurt respectively.The milk lactose intolerant person expired more hydrogen as 60.34?30.57 ml, while drinking yogurt the hydrogen dropped to 14.97 ?33.64ml (P

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of arctigenin(ATG) on liver fibrosis in rats induced by carbon tetrachloride(CCl4)and to explore its underlying mechanism. METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into six groups:vehicle,ATG 3.0 mg · kg-1 group,CCl4 model group,CCl4+ATG 1.0 and 3.0 mg·kg-1 groups,and CCl4+colchicine(COL)0.1 mg·kg-1(toxicity)group. Liver fibrosis was induced by subcutaneous injection of CCl4 in rats for 8 weeks. ATG and colchicine were administrated ig once a day starting from the fifth week after the CCl4 treatment for 4 weeks subsequent. At the end of the study,glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT),glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase(GOT),albumin(ALB),and total bilirubin (TBIL) as well as the contents of hydroxyproline (HYP) in liver tissues were measured. Histopathological changes were observed in the liver tissues using hematoxyline-eosin(HE)and Masson’s trichrome staining. The proliferation of hepatic stellate cells (HSC) and expression of cell cycle-related proteins were assayed by indirect immunofluores?cence staining and Western blotting,respectively. RESULTS Compared with CCl4 model group,ATG 1.0 and 3.0 mg · kg-1 improved the liver function by decreasing serum contents of GPT,GOT and TBIL (P<0.05),and increasing serum content of albumin(P<0.05). Histological results indicated that ATG 1.0 and 3.0 mg · kg-1 alleviated liver damage and reduced the formation of fibrous septa. Moreover, ATG 1.0 and 3.0 mg · kg-1 significantly decreased liver HYP when compared with CCl4 model group(P<0.05). In addition,CCl4-induced proliferation of activated HSC was inhibited by ATG 1.0 and 3.0 mg·kg-1, and this was accompanied by down-regulation of cyclin D1,cyclin-dependent kinase(CDK)2,CDK4, and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)(P<0.05),and up-regulation of p27kip1 in activated HSC (P<0.05). CONCLUSION ATG can alleviate hepatic injury and fibrosis induced by CCl4,which is probably associated with suppression of the proliferation of activated HSC.

Objective To explore the effects of reoperation on treatment of recurrent pelvic endometriosis(RPEM).Methods The clinical data of 47 cases of RPEM reoperation in our hospital from April 2005 to October 2010 was investigated,and the efficacy was analyzed compared with the first operation data.Results The cases of painful nodules was significantly different between reoperation group and the first operation group(28 vs 14,x2 =8.436,P =0.004 ).There was significant difference on laparoscopic surgery cases between reoperation group and the first operation group (25 vs 40,x2 =7.259,P =0.007 ).The operation time in reoperation group was significantly longer than that in the first operation group( [ 106.4 ±41.0] min vs [ 78.4 ± 26.4 ] min,t=3.995,P < 0.01 ),and the amout of intraoperative hemorrhage in reoperation group was more than that in the first operation group ( [ 143.2 ± 118.3 ] ml vs [ 70.6 ± 68.1 ] ml,t =3.660,P < 0.01 ).However,there was no significant difference on symptoms,cyst location and clinical stage between these two groups(P >0.05).Conclusion Due to the pelvic adhesion would be dense and extensive in RPEM,it should be carefully dissected during reoperation.At the same time,the operator should pay attention to the anatomical location and try to restore the normal anatomy of the pelvic organs and physiological state,and try to reduce postoperative adhesions.Complete removal of the lesions is the key to improve the treatment effect and prevent recurrence and reoperation.

We studied the epidemiological characteristics of human bocavirus 4 (HBoV4) in children with a- cute gastroenteritis in Lanzhou (China). A total of 331 stool specimens were collected from children aged < 5 years with acute diarrhea at the First Hospital of Lanzhou University between July 2012 and June 2013. Specimens of HBoV were identified by nested polymerase chain reaction assays. Compared with related sequences in GenBank, the HBoV-positive strain isolated in the present study was,quite surprisingly, a rare genotype named HBoV4. This strain was a typical HBoV4,with high levels of nucleotide and amino acid homology to the Thailand strain, JQ267789 (98.9% and 98.7%, respectively), and the USA strain, GQ506568 (97.6% and 97.4%, respectively). This is the first report of HBoV4 as the causative agent for acute gastroenteritis in pediatric patients in China. This strain is one of two genotypes of HBoV that are currently circulating.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of genotyping and gene polymorphism of Neisseria gonorrhoeae(N.go) with azithromycin(AZM)-resistance(AZM-R) and decreased susceptibility to ceftriaxone(CROD).Methods The minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC) of AZM and CRO were determined.AZM-R isolates were detected for mutations in 23S rRNA,mtrR and penA genes.Genotypes were analyzed by using N.go multi-antigen sequence typing(NG-MAST).Results All total of 485 isolates of N.go were detected.77(15.9%) strains were AZM-R(MIC≥1 mg/L),including 33(6.8%) isolates of AZM low-level resistant(AZM-LLR,MIC=1 mg/L) strains and 44(9.1%) isolates of AZM middle-level resistant(AZM-MLR,MIC≥2 mg/L) strains.There were more CROD(MIC≥0.125 mg/L) strains in AZM-MLR isolates(43.2%),compared with those in AZM-LLR isolates(18.2%,P<0.05).The detected rates of 23S rRNA,mtrR,penA single or combined mutations were without significant differences between AZM-LLR isolates and AZM-MLR isolates(P>0.05).Similar results were found between combined AZM-LLR/CROD isolates and combined AZM-MLR/CROD isolates(P>0.05).No mutation of A2059G and AZM high-level resistant(AZM-HLR,MIC≥256 mg/L) isolate were found.Among 77 AZM-R isolates,67 sequence types(ST) were identified by NG-MAST,of which 30 types were novel.Most ST were represented by a single isolate.Conclusion AZM-R and CROD isolates,presented in this area,might be deserved continuous surveillance to identify the mechanism of concurrent resistance.

Objective:To explore the effect of delphinidin on breast cancer and the underlying mechanisms.Methods:Human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2) positive breast cancer cells MDA-MB-453 were treated by delphinidin.Proliferation of MDA-MB-453 cells was detected by CCK-8 after 48 h.TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay and Western blot were used to explore apoptotic status for MDA-MB-453 cells.Fluorescence dot assay,immunofluorescence,and Western blot were used to identify autophagy in breast cancer cells.Results:Delphinidin suppressed proliferation of MDA-MB-453 cells.Delphinidin increased the number of TUNEL positive cells.Delphinidin downregulated the expression of caspase-3 and caspase-9,while upregulated the expression of cleaved caspase-3 and cleaved caspase-9 in a dose-dependent manner.Delphinidin enhanced the number of GFP-LC3 punctate dots,LC3 immunofluorescence dots and the expression of LC3-Ⅱ and ATG5.Delphinidin inhibited the expression of proteins in mTOR signaling pathway,induding AKT,mTOR,eIF4E and p70s6k.Conclusion:Delphinidin induced apoptosis and autophagy by inhibition of AKT/mTOR pathway in HER positive breast cancer cells.
