Background and purpose:The symptoms of pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PNENs) are complicated, that might lead to misdiagnosis. This study aimed to detect the expression level of DJ-1 in PNENs and explore the clinical significance of DJ-1 in PNENs.Methods:DJ-1 protien levels in the serum of 16 cases of PNENs patients and 25 cases of healthy persons were detected by ELISA analysis; The expressions of DJ-1 in 78 cases of PNENs tissues were detected by immunohistochemical staining.Results:The DJ-1 level in the serum of PNENs patients was signiifcantly higher than healthy persons (36.19±6.71vs 24.68±5.94 ng/mL;P<0.001);53.8% (42/78) cases of PNENs tissues showed DJ-1 positive staining; DJ-1 expression level in PNENs tissues had signiifcantly positive correlation with lymph node metastasis (P=0.033), distant metastasis (P=0.017), TNM stage (P=0.012), and pathology grade (P=0.049); As a dependent risk factor, DJ-1 expression was signiifcantly associated with shorter OS (P=0.003) and DFS (P=0.018) of PNENs patients.Conclusion:High expression of DJ-1 protein correlated with invasion and metastasis, disease progression, and poor prognosis in PNEN.

Objective To evaluate the best experimental technique with high-sensitivity and specificity for enhancing positive rate of syphilis screen test and preventing the blood dissemination of this disease.Methods Comparison of the results of TP-ELISA,TRUST and TPPA methods of syphilis examination was performed.Results Using three methods to exam 43,323 samples,299 samples were for positive syphilis.Among them, 294 positive samples with the ELISA method,the positive rate of syphilis test was 98.33%(294/299):92 positive samples with TRUST method,the positive rate only 30.77%(92/299);239 positive samples with TPPA method,the positive rate 79.93%(239/299).Conclusion TP-ELISA method with high sensitivity is suitable for the instrument standardization and data preservation,which is an ideal method for blood screen test of syphilis.For guarantee of blood safety and conventience and economic benefit of blood syphilis screen test, it is the best way to use both TP-ELISA and TRUST methods.The specificity of TPPA method is perfect, which is suitable for confirmation test of syphilis positive samples.

Objective To establish a model of isoniazid induced necrosis and apoptosis in HepG2 cell and to observe the expressions of Fas/Fas ligand (FasL) in this model.Methods HepG2 cells were treated with different dosages of isoniazid (0,1,2,4,6 and 8 mg/mL) or blank control for 24 hours.Flow cytometer was used to observe the cellular morphology of the HepG2 cell.Annexin V/propidium iodide double staining and flow cytometry were employed to detect the necrosis and apoptosis of HepG2 cells.The expressions of Fas/FasL on the cells were also determined by flow cytometry.The data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA.The comparisons between the drug groups and the control group were performed by using Dunnett t test. Results The higher the dose of isoniazid (4,6,8 mg/mL) was,the more necrosis and apoptosis were observed.In the 4,6 and 8mg/mL isoniazid arms,the total mortality rates were all higher than the control group [(32.1 ±7.5)％,(34.9±8.1)％,(38.2±9.4)％ vs (7.2±1.5)％ respectively](t=4.62,5.14 and 5.75,respectively; all P＜0.01 ).The expression levels of Fas increased along with the dose of isoniazid increasing [(8.7±2.2)％,(11.5±2.8)％,(12.3±3.0)％ and (10.6±2.9)％ in isoniazid 2,4,6and 8 mg/mL arms,respectively],which were all higher than that in control arm [(3.1 ±0.8) ％](t=2.97,P＜0.05; t=4.46,P＜0.01; t=4.88,P＜0.01; t=3.98,P＜0.05).Furthermore,the expressions of FasL increased as well when the dose of isoniazid increased.The expression levels of FasL were (16.2±3.5)％,(21.7±4.8)％ and (18.7±4.9)％,respectively in isoniazid 4,6 and 8 mg/mL arms,which were all higher than that in the control group [(7.4±1.4)％](t=3.11,P＜0.01; t=5.06,P＜0.01; t=3.99,P＜0.05).HepG2 cell necrosis increased with isoniazid of 8 mg/mL.However,the increase of apoptosis was not observed.Conclusion Isoniazid can induce HepG2 cell necrosis and apoptosis,and the apoptosis may be related with the increased expressions of the Fas/FasL on the cells.

Objective To explore the relationship of traditional Chinese medical syndrome patterns with renal pathological changes and clinical laboratory parameters in patients with lupus nephritis.Methods Syndrome patterns were differentiated according the clinical manifestations.The data of laboratory examination and renal pathology were collected and analyzed in 40 patients with lupus nephritis.Results(1) Of the fundamental syndrome patterns,pattern of spleen and kidney Qi deficiency had higher activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR) and 24-hour urine protein amount than the pattern without spleen and kidney Qi deficiency.(2) Of the incidental syndrome patterns,water-damp pattern had higher APTT than damp-turbidity pattern;hemoglobin(HGB) level in water-damp pattern and damp-turbidity pattern was lower than the normal,and HGB level in water-damp pattern differed from that in blood-staiss pattern and damp-heat pattern(P

Objective: To investigate the change of functional marker and morphology of vascular endothelium induced by simulating diving condition. Methods:14 rabbit were put in the chamber. They stayed for 35 min under 0.55 MPa, and another 35 min under 0.7 MPa, then decompressed to 0.1 Mpa following a stage decompression schedule. Blood sample were draw at 30 min before compression and after decompression for testing endothelin-1(ET-1) and von Willebrand factor (vWF). These parameters were compared to see the change from pre-compression to post-decompression. The morphological change of vascular endothelium was observed under electrical microscope after decompression. Results: After decompression, plasma levels of ET-1 was increased from (1.33?0.23)ng/L to (2.99? 0.35)ng/L and activity of vWF was reduced from (2.35?0.47)% to (1.89?0.34)%. Swelling and defluvium of vascular endothelium was found under electrical microscope. Conclusion: Compression-decompression can cause the damage of vascular endothelium.

Objective To establish fully automated sample pooling, nucleic acid extraction, amplification and detection method for HBV DNA testing, and investigate the seroconversion and genotype in HBV DNA positive donors. Methods Individual donor plasma samples serologically negative for HBV were pooled by STAR2000 sampling processor with a size of 24. Nucleic acid were automatically extracted by MPLC simultaneously, amplified and detected by Roche COBAS AMPLICOR system. The sensitivity of detection was determined by international standard. HBV DNA positive donors were genotyped and followed up by serological tests. Results The 95% detection limit for this automated HBV DNA testing system was 38.9IU/ml,with 95% confidence interval (21323),eight out of 16512 specimens were PCR positive for HBV DNA,with a positive rate of 0.049%. Three of the 8 DNA positive donors were genotype C,2 genotype B, 1 genotype D,and the other 2 uncertain。Six of the eight HBV DNA positive donors were followed up, and three of them seroconverted。 Conclusion Fully automated HBV DNA detection method can be applied in blood screening,and will further increase the safety of blood supply.
