A new method for the determination of peptide antibiotics in sediment from aquaculture environment by high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was developed. The target analytes in sediments were ultrasonically extracted twice with citrate buffer solution and methol mixture (3∶ 4, V/ V), followed by complexation with 0. 5 g of Na2 EDTA, purification with 5 mL of methyl isobutyl ketone, and clean-up with HLB-SPE column. The analytes were separated on a MGII C18 column by gradient elution with 0. 1% formaic acid-0. 1% formaic acid acetonitrile as mobile phase, detected in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) with electrospray ionization (ESI) under positive ion mode, and quantified by external standard method. The calibration curves were linear (R2 >0. 999) over a concentration range of 10 -10000μg / L for colistin and bacitracin and 4-4000 μg / L for virginiamycin M1 . The limits of detection (S / N = 3) were 5 μg / kg for colistin and bacitracin and 2 μg / kg for virginiamycin M1 . The limits of quantification (S / N=10) was 10 μg / kg for colistin and bacitracin and 4 μg / kg for virginiamycin M1 . At three spiked levels, the recoveries ranged from 79. 7% to 91. 6% (RSD=1. 9% -10. 8% ), showing high sensitivity, good reproducibility and wide applicability.

Objective To observe the pituitary tumor transforming gene (PTTG), estradiol-stimulated protein 1 (ESP1) expressions in S, G 2/M phases in A549, SPC-A-1 cell lines. Methods The mammalian cells for cell cycle was synchronizated by thymidine, the total RNA in the S, G 2/M phases was collected, and the total RNA was observed by Real-time PCR. Results PTTG expression in A549 and SPC-A-1 cell lines was higher in S phase than that in G 2/M phase while no PTTG expression in MRC-5 cells in S, G 2/M phases. ESP1 expression in A549, SPC-A-1, MRC-5 cell lines was lower in S phase than that in G 2/M phase. Conclusion That no PTTG in S and G 2/M phases in the normal cell line and PTTG expression in the lung cancer cell line higher in S phase than that in G 2/M phase suggested that the aneuploidy may be caused by the overexpression of PTTG. ESP1 expression was lower in S phase than G 2/M phase in all of the three cell lines, suggesting that sister chromatids separation depend on the active ESP1.

Journal of Regional Anatomy and Operative Surgery 2013;(6):611-612,614
Objective To explore the effects of the therapeutic effects of interventional heated chemotherapy( IHC) for moderate and advanced huge primary hepatocellular carcinoma and compare with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization( TACE) . Methods The 68 pa-tients with moderate and advanced huge primary hepatocellular carcinoma accepted the treatment of IHC were considered as the observation group,and 32 patients managed TACE were regarded as the control group. The therapeutic effects,living quality,secondary surgery rates,The reduced level of serum AFP,survival rate,and toxic side effects of 2 groups were contrasted. Results The effective rate of observation group was obviously higher than that of control group (79. 4% vs 56. 3%,P <0. 05),and secondary surgery rates was increased(70. 6% vs 43. 8%,P<0. 01). The ratio of increased Karnofsky score was more than 20 in observation group,which was obviously higher than that of control group(35. 3% vs 12. 5%,P<0. 01). T The reduced level of serum AFP was more than 50% in observation group,which was higher than that of control group (52. 9% vs 25. 0%,P<0. 01). The survival rate of 12,18,24 months after treatment in control group was in-creased than that in control group individually (P<0. 01). Conclusion IHC is effective for huge primary hepatocellular carcinoma and in-creases the secondary surgery rates,which is one of the safe and effective methods for huge primary hepatocellular carcinoma.
