Objective To evaluate the cytotoxicity of trichostatin A (TSA),a histone deacetylase inhibitor,plus paclitaxel to H1299 strain lung cancer cells. Methods H1299 cells were exposed to TSA and/or paclitaxel in different concentrations in different ways. The proliferation rates were determined by MTT assay,the 50% inhibition concentration (IC50) of paclitaxel was calculated and the growth curve was plotted. The H1299 cells were then divided into 4 groups:control group (cells were normally cultivated for 36h),TAX group (cells were treated with 10nmol/L of paclitaxel for 24h),TSA group (cells were treated with 300nmol/L of TSA for 24h) and TF group (cells were exposed to TAX for 24h after being treated with TSA). Cell cycle and apoptosis were determined by flow cytometry. The morphological changes in nuclei as stained with Hoechst 33342 were observed by fluorescence microscopy. The protein expression levels of p21 and cleaved poly-ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) were determined by Western blotting. Results TSA significantly enhanced the inhibition of paclitaxel in lung cancer cell lines H1299. When combined with TSA,the IC50 of paclitaxel decreased significantly from 110.6?38.7nmol/L to 63.7?11.8nmol/L in H1299 cells (P0.05). Conclusion The HDAC inhibitor TSA,combined with TAX,may enhance the cytotoxicity of paclitaxel to,and promote the death of,lung cancer cell line H1299,which may not be related to apoptosis.

Abstract: To investigate the distribution of avian influenza virus in environmental samples from live poultry markets (LPM) in China, samples were collected and tested by nucleic acid during 2009-2013 season. Each sample was tested by real-time RT PCR using flu A specific primers. If any real-time PCR was positive, the sample was inoculated into specific-pathogen-free (SPF) embryonated chicken eggs for viral isolation. The results indicated that the positive rate of nucleic acid in enviromental samples exhibited seasonality. The positive rate of nucleic acid was significantly higher in Winter and Spring. The positive rate of nucleic acid in LPM located in the south of China was higher than in northern China. Samples of Sewage for cleaning poultry and chopping board showed that higher positive rate of nucleic acid than other samples. The Subtype identification showed that H5 and H9 were main subtypes in the enviromental samples. Viral isolation indicated H5 subtypes was more than H9 subtypes between 2009 and 2013 while H9 subtypes increased in 2013. Our findings suggested the significance of public health based on LPM surveillance and provided the basis of prevention and early warning for avian flu infection human.

Objective To prenatally diagnose HA fetus with different clinical backgrounds. Methods Genetic tests were performed on 15 gravidas subjected for prenatal diagnosis of HA and different methods were employed for diagnosis according to the gestational weeks and clinical data. Amniotic fluid were taken from pregnant women within 23 gestational weeks for direct genotyping and indirect linkage analysis, since these women had probands with clear-cut mutations. Cordocentesis was performed for linkage analysis in pregnant women over 23 gestational weeks with probands whose types of mutation were unknown, while the FⅧ activity tests were carried out simultaneously. For the pregnant women over 23 gestational weeks without proband, cordocentesis was operated for measurement of FⅧ activity and karyotyping, but carriers of hemophilia A could not be detected in these cases. The introns 22 and 1 inversion of F8 gene were identified by long distance-polymerase chain reaction. Nucleotide sequencing was employed if the gene inversion could not be found and linkage analysis of 7 polymorphic markers, including DXS1108, F8Civs13, INTRON22,DXS1073,DXS9901, DXS15, DXS8069 and sex site (Amelo) were applied eventually. Identification of maternal blood contamination must be done before the tests. Results Fifteen samples were identified without maternal blood contamination. Five fetuses were diagnosed with hemophilia A. Meanwhile there were three pregnant women whose cord blood FⅧ activities were less than 1%. One of them was accompanied by trisomy 21; another had inversion mutation in introns 22 of F8 gene; the remaining one was identified with missense mutation in exon 23 (p. Arg2182Cys) of F8 gene. Conclusions Diverse methods should be applied in prenatal diagnosis of hemophilia A with different clinical backgrounds, for the sake of birth defects prevention.

Objective To identify susceptible miRNAs for the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy (DN) and the molecular targets of losartan treatment. Methods The 8-week age KKAy mice were divided into losartan treatment group (10 mg· kg-1· d-1) and non-treatment group,C57BL/6 mice were used as the control group.At age of 20 weeks,body weight,random blood glucose,urinary albumin and urinary creatinine were tested,and kidney morphology was observed.Glomeroli were separated by magnetic beads perfusion,and total RNA were extracted.MiRNAs expression profiles were analyzed by the Affymetrix GeneChip miRNAs arrays. Results At age of 20 weeks,KKAy mice developed higher body weight,higher blood glucose and higher urinary microalbumin creatinine ratio than C57BL/6 mice,and the glomerular basement membrane thickened,mesangial matrix widened.Losartan treatment markedly improved the level of urinary albumin creatinine ratio [(539.71±100.23) mg/g vs (728±177.19) mg/g,P<0.05)] and pathological lesion of KKAy mice.The miRNA array analysis showed that there were 22 miRNAs differentially expressed between KKAy non-treatment mice and C57BL/6 mice glomeruli at age of 20 weeks.Among them,10 miRNAs were up-regulated,and 12 miRNAs were down-regulated.The expression of 4 miRNAs was down-regulated in glumeruli of KKAy mice treated by losartan compared with that of non-treatment mice.The expressions of miRNA-503 and miRNA-181d were significantly up-regulated in the glumeruli of KKAy mice and inhibited by losartan treatment, Conclusion The expressions of miRNA-503 and miRNA-181d are significantly up-regulated in the glumeruli of KKAy mice and inhibited by losartan treatment,which may be new therapeutic targets of DN.

Objective To investigate the impact of peritoneal albumin leakage on malnutrition-inflammation-atherosclerosis (MIA) syndrome in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients. Methods A cross-sectional study of a cohort of 130 CAPD patients without edema or active infection was performed. In order to identify peritoneal transport characteristics in CAPD patients, a standard peritoneal equilibration test (PET) was carried out. For malnutrition and inflammation, serum albumin and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels were measured. Mean-carotid artery intima media thickness (IMT) was used to determine atherosclerosis. Residual glomerular filtration rate (rGFR) was defined as the average of 24-hour urinary urea and creatinine clearances. Results Pearson and Spearman correlation analysis showed that peritoneal albumin leakage amount was positively correlated with age, body mass index, night dwell time, blood glucose, 4 h D/P creatinine levels and hs-CRP levels (r=0.204, P<0.05 ;r=0.314, P<0.01; r=0.265, P<0.01; r=0.212, P<0.05; r=0.401, P<0.01; r=0.216, P<0.05); whereas it was negatively correlated with diastolic perssure, serum albumin levels, glucose level of dialyzate and peritoneal Kt/V (r=-0.209, P<0.05; r=-0.123, P<0.05; r=-0.271, P<0.01; r=-0.212, P<0.01). Overall, there was no correlation between peritoneal albumin leakage and IMT. Patients was significantly greater (P<0.01), and there was a positive correlation between peritoneal albumin leakage amount and IMT (r=0.650, P<0.01). Conclusions Peritoneal albumin leakage is significantly associated with peritoneal transport characteristics, malnutrition and inflammatory state in CAPD patients. High peritoneal albumin leakage amount is a risk factor for atherosclerosis in patients with rGFR less than 1 ml·min-1(1.73 m2)-1.
