0.05).Conclusion:So-fastTM can greatly improve the penetration of PS-ODN into S.mutans and can be used as appropriate delivery system of PS-ODN for S.mutans. No matter what approaches were adopted, the uptake rate reached the maximum at 5 ?mol/L and 2 h-exposure. The penetration can not be enhanced by increasing the PS-ODN concentration and the transformation time.

Objective To study the inducing apoptosis of Hedyotis diffusa extract (HDE) on human hepatocarcinoma cell line Bel7402 and its molecular mechanism. Methods Human hepatocarcinoma cell line Bel7402 was used in vitro cell culture, there were 3 groups:control group, HDE group and 5-Fu group, the Bel7402 cells were dealed with them respectively. The apoptosis morphologic changes of human hepatocarcinoma cells were observed by invert microscope. The apoptosis rate was detected with hematoxylin stain by light microscope. Inhibition of Bel7402 cell proliferation was measured by MTT assay. The expression of oncogene Bcl-xl and anti-oncogene p53 of Bel7402 ceils were observed with RT-PCR assay.

Conclusion The changes of the serum inflammatory factor in the elder patients with femoral neck fracture during periopearative period showed regular pattern, and it was meaningful for understanding the developing and prognosis.

Objective:To identify metastasis-associated genes in salivary gland adenoid cystic carcinoma(ACC).Methods:Salivary gland adenoid cytic carcinoma cell line ACC-2 and its highly metastatic ACC-M cells were used to screen the metastasis-related genes in ACC by microarray technology.Two fluorescent cDNA probes labeled with Cy3 and Cy5 dyes,were prepared from the mRNA samples of ACC-2 and ACC-M cells by reverse transcription method.The two color probes were then mixed and hybridized on the cDNA chip constructed by double dots of 1152 human genes,and scanned at two wave lengths.Differentialy expressed genes of the two cell lines were analyzed using computer.Then seven of the differently expressed genes were further validated by RT-PCR technique.Results:Of the 1,152 known genes and expressed sequence tags,26 showed significantly different expression level(minimum 2 fold) between the two cell lines.Among the 26 genes,19 were up regulated(with ratio more than 2) and 7 were down(with ratio less than 1/2).The results of RT-PCR analysis for 7 differently expressed genes were coincident with those of microarray assay.Conclusions:Down regulation of LIFR,LCP1,DPEP1 and ABLIM1,and up regulation of DCC,MMP1 and CNTN2 may be related to the highly metastatic potential of ACC-M cell line.

AIM To establish anti-osteosarcoma antibody producing hybridoma cell lines and to study the characterization of the monoclonal antibodies. Methods BALB/c mice were immunized with human osteosarcoma cells OS-9607 and the immunized spleen cells were fused with SP2/0 cells to raise hybridoma. The propert of antibody and it's cytotoxic effect were studied respectively with immunohistochemistry methods using OS-9607 and normal hepatocytes、 Western Blot methods and MTT method. Results A hybridoma cell line named 3D9 was established and it secreted high quality mAbs steadily. 3D9 cell had all the characteristics of hybridoma. The mAb's corresponding antigens was specifically and highly expressed in human osteosarcoma. With enzyme-labeled immunohistochemical staining on formaldehyde -fixed sections from human osteosarcoma,it was found that 83％ of the specimens expressed the corresponding antigen. Most of them were expressed on the nuclear of cells, no positive expression was observed in kinds of normal tissues. Western Blot showed 3D9's corresponding molecule weight is Mr54 000. MTT assay proved that the cytotoxicitis of effective groups were higher than control groups. Conclusion A high quality hybridoma is cultured and the mAb secreted by it has osteosarcoma specificity and obvious cytotoxic effect. It may be a new biochemical mark of osteosarcoma, and it's clinical prospect of immunotherapy will be wide.

Objective To investigate the effect of expression level and methylation level of miR-200b on proliferation, invasion and apoptosis of gastric cancer cell line MGC-803 in vitro. Methods Normal human gastric epithelium cell line GES-1, and gastric cancer cell line MGC-803 cells were cultured and harvested to extract total RNA. Then miR-200b ex?pression level was examined via q-PCR;Methylation in promoter of miR-200b was revealed by Bisulphite PCR. MGC-803 cells were treated with different concentrations of 5′-Aza-CdR to test its effect on miR-200b expression and methylation of its promotor. The effect of its treatment at 10μmol/L for 72 h on invasion,proliferation and apoptosis of both cell lines were detected by Transwell assay, Flow cytometry and apoptosis assay respectively. The gene related to EMT (epithelial-mesen?chymal transition ) such as E-cadherin,N-cadherin,ZEB1,Slug were checked by Western blot. Results The expression of miR-200b in GES-1 is higher than that in MGC-803(P=0.022). The methylation level in promoter region of miR-200b in GES-1 is lower than that in MGC-803(P=0.034). After treated with 5′-Aza-CdR, the expression of miR-200b in MGC-803 cell was up-regulated in a timely dependent manner. On the contrary, the methylation in promoter of mirR-200b were down-regulated when 5′-Aza-CdR were added at 10μmol/L(P=0.043). What’s more, 5′-Aza-CdR administration increas?es cell apoptosis especially in aged cells and delays cell cycle at G0/G1 which in turn decrease ratio of cells in S phages. 5′-Aza-CdR treatment also decreased invasiveness and induced expression of E-cadherin, as well as down regulated the ex?pressions of N-cadhrin, ZEB1, Slug and MMP9 in MGC-803 cells. Conclusion Expression of miR-200b could be affected by methylation of promoter of miR-200b and in turn regulate proliferation and invasion of gastric cells in vitro.

Objective　To identify the regression of left ventricle after aortic valve replacement for aortic regurgitation complicated by extremely dilated left ventricle. Methods　34 cases were reviewed to evaluate the regression of left ventricle by UCG. Results　All patients survived after aortic valve replacement. The left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD) decreased dramatically 1－2 weeks and further decreased 6－12 months after operation, i.e. 87.2±6.6 mm (preoperation), 70.2±13.5 mm (1－2 weeks post-operation), and 62.0±12.52 mm (6－12 months post-operation), respectively, P<0.01. If the patients were grouped according to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) before operation: group A(LVEF<50%) and group B (LVEF>50%), reduction of LVEDD and increase of LVEF in group B were more significant than in group A. Conclusion　LVEF is the key factor for the regression of left ventricle and can be used to predict the prognosis.

Objective To investigate the evolution of cognitive function and its influence factors,so as to provide evidence for guiding treatment of cognitive impairment after stroke.Methods A total of 98 cases of patients with stroke admitted in the First and Second Affiliated Hospital of Medical College of Xi'an Jiaotong University and Shaanxi Provincial People's Hospital between April and September 2009 were enrolled and recruited.Mini-mental state examination(MMSE) and Montreal cognitive function rating scale (MoCA) were adopted to assess the evolution of cognition at acute phase( within 2 weeks),6 weeks,and 12 weeks after stroke among patients within 2 weeks after onset,questionnaire score≤56,without aphasia and consiousness disturbance and at least one side of upper extremities muscle force ≥ grade 3.Results When using MMSE scale as criteria,the incidence of cognitive impairment was 24.5% at acute phase,12.1% at 6 weeks and 9.9% at 12 weeks after stroke,while the incidence was 86.8%,68.2%,and 38.0% respectively when using MoCA scale as criteria.The scales of MMSE and MoCA were increased and the incidence of cognitive impairment was decreased within 12 weeks after stroke.Logistic regression analysis indicated that,advanced age( β = -0.124 ),hypertension ( β = -3.705 ),low education level ( β = 0.560 )and depression after stroke ( β =4.613 ) were related with cognitive impairment after stroke ( all P values ＜0.05 ); low education level ( β = 0.710 ),coronary heart disease ( β = -3.649 ),elevated total cholesterol (TC) ( β = -3.361 ) and low density lipid cholesterol (LDL-C) ( β = - 5.833 ),and depression ( β =-3.612) delayed recovery of cognition after stroke.Conclusions The cognitive function improves and the incidence of cognitive impairment lowers as the time goes on within 12 weeks after stroke.The factors that may affect the improvement of cognitive function include low educational level,coronary heart disease,elevated TC and LDL-C,and post-stroke depression.
