Objective To study the effect of TFF_2 gene theragy on the healing of experimental gastric ulcer in rats and its mechanism.Methods From Jun.10,2005 to Mar.15,2006.48 Wistar rats were randomly divided into two groups:24 in therapy group,24 in control group.pcDNA3.1-TFF_2 100?g was used in each rat in therapy group,and the same volume of pcDNA 3.1 was used in control group.Each rat was injected under serous membrane of the gastric wall after making model.The rats were executed separately after 3、7、14 days.Results Ulcer index was 9.7?2.9 mm2 in therapy group and was 17.7?3.1 mm2 in control group on the 14th day.There was significant difference between the two groups.The average amount of mucous glycoprotein was 83.35?4.54 mg/g in the therapy group and 70.36?4.22 mg/g in the control group.There was no significant change in the secretion of acid between the two groups.Conclusion TFF_2 gene therapy can promote the healing of experimental gastric ulcer in rats.Its mechanisms may include increasing mucous glycoprotein of the gastric wall without suppressing gastric acid secretion.

Objective To explore the correlation between homocysteine(Hcy),lipids amd type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods The laboratory test results of 533 cases of patients with T2DM(T2DM group)and 362 cases of healthy individuals (healthy control group)were retrospectively analyzed.Results The serum levels of Hcy and rates of abnormal serum cholesterol (TC),triacylglycerol(TG),low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)levels in the T2DM group were higher than those in the healthy control group,had statistically significant differences(P <0.05).Conclusion The high serum level of Hcy and abnormal lipid metabolism are correlated with T2DM,which might be risk factors of diabetes mel-litus and cardiovascular disease.

Objective To assemble fusion gene of c-myc tagged human trefoil factor family 2(hTFF2)(in vitro) and construct a cloning vector of this fusion gene.Methods Based on amino acid sequence of hTFF2 and codon of lactococcus lactis,cDNA of htff2 sequence was designed and extended at their 5' ends with a sequence encoding the c-myc tag;and the sequence of fusion gene c-myc-htff2 was designed.According to restriction enzyme sites of pBluescript Ⅱ sk(+),the SalⅠ and BamHⅠ were arranged at 5′ and 3′ ends of the fusion gene respectively.Instructed by DNAWORKS program,the fusion gene sequence of c-myc-htff2 was designed as 14 oligonucleotides that overlapped each other.The target gene fragment of cmyc-htff2 fusion gene was obtained by the means of polymerase chain reaction(PCR) based gene assembly.Then,the c-myc-htff2 was subcloned into vector of pBluescript II sk(+) for identification of the fusion gene by restricting enzyme excision and DNA sequencing.Results Assembly of c-myc-TFF2 fusion gene(in vitro) and construction of pBS-TFF2 had been completed successfully;and DNA sequencing showed that the sequence of synthetic gene accorded with the expectation.Conclusion With the help of DNAWORKS program,the design and assembly of oligonucleotides (in vitro) is effective to synthesize a target gene,and the cloning vector of c-myc-htff2 fusion gene has been successfully constructed.

Objective To evaluate the significance of COLD-PCR in detecting KRAS mutation of pancreatic cancer and colorectal cancer patients. Methods First, set up COLD-PCR and compared the sensitivities of COLD-PCR/Sanger sequencing with PCR/Sanger sequencing using mixed cell lines ( KRAS wild-type cell line SW116 and KRAS mutant cell line SW480).Then, detected KRAS mutation of 20 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded samples of pancreatic cancer and 39 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded samples of colorectal cancer using PCR/Sanger sequencing and COLD-PCR/Sanger sequencing, respectively and compared the coincidence rate and consistency. Results The low detection limits of PCR/Sanger respectively. KRAS frequency detected by COLD-PCR/Sanger sequencing [75% (15/20)] in 20 cases of pancreatic cancer was higher than that detected by regular PCR/Sanger sequencing [40% ( 8/20 ) ,x2 =5.013, P < 0.05]. KRAS frequency detected by COLD-PCR/Sanger sequencing [44% (17/39)] in 39 cases of colorectal cancer was higher than that detected by regular PCR/Sanger sequencing [31% (12/39) ,x2 =1. 372, P = 0. 174]. The coincidence rate of these two methods was 0. 730 and the difference had no statistical significance. The coincidence rate of detecting KRAS mutation was 65% in pancreatic cancer and the results showed a good correlation between two methods and the two methods had bad agreement in diagnosis (Kappa = 0. 364, P < 0. 05 ). COLD-PCR/Sanger sequencing could detect more cases of KRAS mutations from pancreatic caner than regular PCR/Sanger sequencing. This was because there were many non-tumor cells in pancreatic tumor tissue and COLD-PCR/Sanger sequencing was more sensitive than regular PCR/Sanger sequencing. The coincidence rate of detecting KRAS mutations was 87% in colorectal cancer and the results were showed a good correlation between two methods and the two methods had substantical agreement in diagonsis ( Kappa = 0. 730, P < 0. 05 ) . Conclusion COLD-PCR/Sanger sequencing is highly sensitive to screen KRAS mutation in pancreatic cancer and colorectal cancer patients.

Objective: Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-activating mutations have higher response rate and more prolonged survival following treatment with single-agent EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) compared with patients with wild-type EGFR. However, all patients treated with reversible inhibitors develop acquired re-sistance over time. The mechanisms of resistance are complicated. The lack of established therapeutic options for patients after a failed EGFR-TKI treatment poses a great challenge to physicians in managing this group of lung cancer patients. This study evaluates the in-fluence of EGFR-TKI retreatment following chemotherapy after failure of initial EGFR-TKI within at least six months on NSCLC pa-tients. Methods:The data of 27 patients who experienced treatment failure from their initial use of EGFR-TKI within at least 6 months were analyzed. After chemotherapy, the patients were retreated with EGFR-TKI (gefitinib 250 mg qd or erlotinib 150 mg qd), and the tumor progression was observed. The patients were assessed for adverse events and response to therapy. Targeted tumor lesions were as-sessed with CT scan. Results:Of the 27 patients who received EGFR–TKI retreatment, 1 (3.7%) patient was observed in complete re-sponse (CR), 8 (29.6%) patients in partial response (PR), 14 (51.9%) patients in stable disease (SD), and 4 (14.8%) patients in progres-sive disease (PD). The disease control rate (DCR) was 85.2%(95%CI=62%-94%). The median progression-free survival (mPFS) was 6 months (95%CI=1-29). Of the 13 patients who received the same EGFR-TKI, 1 patient in CR, 3 patients in PR, 8 patients in SD, and 2 patients in PD were observed. The DCR was 84.6%, and the mPFS was 5 months. Of the 14 patients who received another EG-FR-TKI, 0 patient in CR, 6 patients in PR, 6 patients in SD, and 2 patients in PD were observed. The DCR was 85.7%, and the mPFS was 9.5 months. Significant difference was found between the 2 groups in progression-free survival but not in response rate or disease control rate. Conclusion:Retreatment of EGFR-TKIs can be considered an option after failure of chemotherapy for patients who were
previously controlled by EGFR-TKI treatment.

Skin sensitization (allergic contact dermatitis, ACD), is a serious condition caused by small reactive molecules and is characterized by a delayed-type hypersensitivity .Animal tests were usually used in the evaluation of sensitizing potential of chemical substances in the past .However , there is an increasing interest from the public for reducing and ultimately replacing animal tests .The European Union (EU) has posed a ban on animal testing of cosmetic ingredients that includes skin sensitization since 2013.Therefore, alternative in vitro tests are the main tendency in chemical substances and cosmetic sensitizing potential research in the future .In this study, different kinds of in vitro test methods that were adopted by OECD or on research (LLNA, DPRA, KeratinoSens TM, h-CLAT) were reviewed through recent years literature , comprehensive introduction and evaluation were made to obtain reliable hazard and potency information on potential skin sensitizers .

Objective To analyze the status of occupational disease hazards in Shantou City for 2019 to 2022 and propose corresponding management measures. Methods Technical reports on various occupational-disease-specific activities in Shantou City from 2019 to 2022 were collected and the data were comprehensively analyzed. Results Among the 3 066 enterprises surveyed in the 2020 occupational disease hazard investigation in Shantou City, occupational hazards were reported in 2 982 enterprises (accounting for 97.3%), with 2 955 being small and micro enterprises, accounted for 99.1%(2 955/2 982). The exposure rate of occupational hazards was 58.7% (42 894/73 054) among workers in the surveyed enterprises, with dust and noise exposure rates of 59.7% and 77.8%, respectively. The reported rate of occupational disease hazard projects by employers, regular detection rate of workplace occupational hazards, detection rate of occupational medical examination among workers, and occupational health training rate of key responsible personnel and occupational health management staff were 8.4%, 1.4%, 2.4%, and 4.3%, respectively. The results of occupational hazards monitoring of workplace in key industries from 2019 to 2022 showed that noise had the highest rate of exceeding national standards workplace, followed by silica dust, accounting for 34.2% and 13.8%, with the on-site exceedance rate of 32.2% and 10.0%, respectively. From 2019 to 2022, 31 suspected occupational disease cases were identified in key occupational disease monitoring, including 27 suspected cases of occupational pneumoconiosis and four suspected cases of occupational noise-induced deafness. Conclusion The workers in Shantou City have a high exposure rate to occupational hazards, and the occupational health management level of employers remains low, with noise and silica dust being the most severe occupational hazards. It is essential to improve technical support and service system development for occupational disease prevention and treatment, strengthen supervision and management in key industries and positions, explore occupational health assistance mechanisms for small and micro enterprises, and enforce employers' responsibility in occupational disease prevention to protect workers' occupational health and safety.

Objective To evaluate the effect of comprehensive schistosomiasis control measures based on infection source control in plateau mountain areas of Yunnan Province. Methods From 2006 to 2004,four administrative villages were selected as test areas from plateau canyon and plateau basin endemic areas in Jindun Town,Heqing County,two villages each type,and the comprehensive control measures were implemented,including the examination and treatment of schistosomiasis,Oncomela?nia hupensis snail survey and control,health education,improving drinking water and lavatories,banning grazing,constructing sanitary pen of livestock,replacing cattle with machine,etc. The schistosome infection state and snail status in 2006 were treat?ed as the baseline information,and the effect of the comprehensive measures were evaluated. Results The infection rate of hu?man in plateau canyon areas decreased from 4.94%in 2006 to 0.06%in 2014,and that of livestock decreased from 1.11%to 0. In plateau basin areas,there was only 1 case of schistosomiasis found in Xiaolian Village in 2007,and no any other cases found in the other years,the infection rates of livestock dropped from 7.38%to 0. Compared with 2006,the snail areas in the two type areas decreased by 74.89%and 75.30%,respectively,meanwhile,the percentage of snail area,the occurrence rate of frames with snails,as well as the average density of living snails also decreased,and no infected snails were found since 2008. Xidian and Xinzhuang villages in plateau canyon area reached the criteria of schistosomiasis transmission controlled in 2009,and Xiao?lian and Kangfu villages in plateau basin reached the criteria of transmission interrupted in 2014. Conclusions The comprehen?sive schistosomiasis control measures based on infection source control can effectively control the endemic situation of schistoso? miasis in plateau areas of Yunnan Province. In the future,we should pay an equal attention to the infection sources control and snail control to consolidate and amplify the achievement of schistosomiasis control.
