The cells were incubated with estradiol (1 nmol/L) and high concentration of insulin (100 nmol/L). The relatively transcriptional activity of the 5′-regulatory regions of IRS-1 and IRS-2 gene was detected. RESULTS: It was found that the relatively transcriptional activity of the 5′-modulatory regions of IRS-2 reduced markedly after cells were incubated with 100 nmol/L insulin (P

Objectives To study the mutation spectrum in CYP21A2 gene in patients with 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD), and to analyze the relationship between genotype and phenotype. Methods Eighteen patients with 21-OHD were identified by neonatal screening of 17α-OH progesterone (17α-OHP). The allele specific PCR-DNA sequencing com-bining with multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification was applied to determine the genotype in the patients and their parents. Results Six mutations of CYP21A2 gene were identified. I2G (44.4%) and del (33.3%) were the most frequent mutations and also were the most common mutations in salt-wasting form. The detection rate of I172N mutation in simple virilizing form was 75%. Patients were classified into three groups according to the degree of 21-hydroxylase enzymatic compromise caused by the mutation. The serum 17α-OHP, ACTH and T levels which reflected the severity of disease were significantly different among three groups (P<0.05). Conclusions The genetic diagnosis of 21-OHD reveals the consistency between genotype and phenotype.

Objective To approach the efficiency of second-trimester prenatal screening using two serum markers for Down's syndrome (DS).Methods Retrospective analysis was conducted on the results of prenatal screening using two serum markers,alpha fetoprotein (AFP) and free beta subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin(free-β-hCG),in 50 cases of DS pregnancy identified among 60 931 pregnant women received prenatal screening from November 1997 to April 2008 in Nanjing Maternal and Child Health Hospital.Results Among the 50 DS cases,the detection rate of DS was 50% (25/50) when taking free-β-hCG≥2.5 MoM as the cut-off,with the positive rate of screening was 6.6%.And the detection rate of DS would be 18.0%(9/25) when taking AFP≤0.5 MoM as the cut-off,with the positive rate of screening was 4.6%.When the risk cut-off value of DS was set at 1/270,the detection rate changed to 52.0%,and the positive rate of screening was 4.7%;and the two figures changed to 62.0% and 5.5%,respectively,when the risk cut-off was set to 1/300.Thirteen DS cases showed the risk value between 1/1000 and 1/300,among which two were monomarker abnormality.Thirteen (26.0%) of the 50 DS fetus were found to have one or two abnormality markers by ultrasound scan,among which one was DS low risk,and the other 12 were DS high risk in serum screening.Conclusions The second-trimester prenatal screening using AFP or free β-hCG for Down's syndrome is effective in identifying DS pregnancy with limited specificity and sensitivity.But the detection rate can be elevated by the combination of these two markers.The second trimester systemic ultrasound scan is not ideal for DS identification,but it can increase the specificity and sensitivity of serum prenatal screening.

Objective To investigate the correlation between the features of conventional ultrasound& shear wave elasticity and axillary lymph node involvement in breast cancer . Methods A total of 169 breast cancers patients were divided into lymph node metastasis group( n = 115) and non metastasis group ( n = 54 ) according to the postoperative pathological results . Preoperative conventional ultrasonographic features and preoperative shear wave elastography quantitative parameters ( E values ) of the two groups breast lessons were analyzed by single factor analysis to screen out statistically significant factors ,then Logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the relationship between above factors and lymph node involvement . Results Single factor analysis showed the microcalcification and hyperechoic halo detection rates of lymph node metastasis group [ 81 .7％ ( 94/115) and 71 .3％ ( 82/115 ) ,respectively] were higher than those in non metastasis group [ 61 .1％ (33/54) and 50 .0％ ( 27/54) ,respectively] . The elastography maximum value( Emax) of lymph node involvement group was ( 182 .2 ± 74 .0) kPa ,which was larger than that in non metastasis group′s ( 153 .3 ± 76 .9) kPa ( P < 0 .05) . Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed the microcalcification( OR = 2 .498 , P = 0 .022) ,the hyperechoic halo( OR = 2 .482 , P = 0 .013) and the Emax value( OR = 1 .007 , P = 0 .007) were risk factors of axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer . Conclusions Breast cancer with microcalcification ,hyperechoic signs and high Emax value is more likely to develop axillary lymph node metastasis .

Objective:To study the specific mechanism of LINC01018 involved in the pathogenesis of colon cancer.Methods:The expression of LINC01018 in colon cancer tissues and cells and normal colon tissues and cells were detected by real time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). HT-29 cell line which overexpresses LINC01018 stably was established. RNA binding protein immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay was used to detect the interaction between LINC01018 and E2F1 protein. Dual luciferase assay was used to detect the regulatory effect of E2F1 on CDK6 promoter. The expression of E2F1 or CDK6 was up-regulated in HT-29 cell line which overexpresses LINC01018, then the proliferation, invasion and migration of HT-29 cells and the expression of CDK6 and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) in HT-29 cells were detected by cell counting method (CCK-8) assay, Transwell assay and Western blot.Results:The expression of LINC01018 was abnormally low in colon cancer tissues and cells. The result of RIP assay showed that LINC01018 interacted with E2F1 protein. The result of dual luciferase assay showed that E2F1 protein could enhance the efficiency of CDK6 promoter, and E2F1 had a positive regulatory effect on CDK6. Overexpression of LINC01018 could attenuate the positive regulatory effect of E2F1 on CDK6. Up-regulation of E2F1 or CDK6 expression could attenuate the effects of LINC01018 overexpression on the proliferation, invasion, migration and expression of CDK6 and MMP-2 in HT-29 cells.Conclusions:The expression of LINC01018 was abnormally low in colon cancer tissues and cells. LINC01018 may regulate the proliferation, invasion and migration of HT-29 cells through E2F1/CDK6/MMP-2 axis, and participate in the pathogenesis of colon cancer.
