Objective To investigate effect of p27kip1 gene transfer mediated by adenovirus vector on the cell cycle of esophageal carcinoma cells. Methods The recombination adenoviral vector carrying p27kip1 gene (Ad-p27kip) was transfected to esophageal carcinoma Eca9706 cells. The effect of p21kip1 gene transfer on the cell growth suppression was measured by MTT method. Expression of p27kip1 was detected by immunocytochemical technique. Cell cycle was analysed by flow cytometry(FCM). Results After Eca9706 cells were transfected with Ad-p27kip1, p27kip1 expression increased, the cell growth was significantly inhibited and the ratio of G 0/G 1 phase cells increased and the cell number of G 2/M and S phases decreased. Conclusion p27kip1 gene transfer mediated by adenovirus can significantly inhibit the growth of esophageal carcinoma cells and cause G 1 phase blocking.

Objective To investigate immunoadsorption in the prevention of hyperacute rejection in highly sensitized recipients of renal allografts.Methods Immunoadsorption treatment was performed on 10 patients whose panel reactive antigen (PRA) was more than 40 %. The adverse effect and hyperacute rejection were observed.Results Two cases of acute rejection of renal allografts were found in highly sensitized recipients and reversed by the therapy of immunoadsorption and adjusting immuno-suppressive drugs.Conclusion Immunoadsorption treatment could effectively and safely prevent highly sensitized recipients from hyperacute rejection post-transplantation.

Objective To observe the role of preoperative single administration of zenapax in the prevention of acute rejection after kidney transplantation, and evaluate its safety. Methods A total of 80 renal transplant recipients during the same period were divided into treatment and control groups, each group containing 40 patients. There were no difference between the two groups in treatment regime except the preoperative single administration of zenapax in the treatment group. Results Acute rejection rate was significantly lower in the treatment group(7.5%) than the control group(25%) within 6 months after kidney transplantation(P

Objective To investigate the effects of inhibiting ubiquitin proteasome pathway(UPP) on proliferation of gastric carcinoma cells and the possible mechanism was discussed. Methods The gastric carcinoma cell strain SGC 7901 was treated with MG 132 to inhibit its UPP specially. The effect of growth suppression on cells was evaluated with MTT assay. Cell cycle and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry(FCM). DNA fragment analysis was used for confirming the presence of apoptosis. The activity of telomerase was examined by TRAP PCR ELISA. Expression of p27kip1 was detected by immunocytochemical technique. Results MG 132 had great inhibitory effect on the growth of SGC 7901 cells.
