Purpose To investigate the expression of androgen receptor ( AR) in molecular subtypes of breast cancer and its relation-ship with clinicopathological features. Methods The expression of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), HER-2, CK5/6, CK14 in breast cancer was detected by EnVision immunohistochemical staining, and they further be divided into 84 Luminal A subtypes, 27 Luminal B subtypes, 14 HER-2 overexpression subtypes, 11 Basal-like subtypes, and 17 Normal-like subtypes, respec-tively. The distribution of AR in 5 molecular subtypes and its relationship with clinicopathological factors, such as age, histopathologi-cal grading, tumor size, lymph node status and clinical staging, were analyzed. Results In 153 cases of breast cancer, the positive rates of AR expression were 73. 20%, Luminal A was the majority ( 62. 50%) in 5 molecular subtypes. In the HER-2 negative and positive breast cancer, the positive rates of AR expression were 75. 00% and 68. 29% and the difference between the two groups was no statistical significant (P=0. 196). Of the 153 breast cancers, 23 (15. 03%) were triple-negative breast cancers (ER-, PR- and HER-2-), 15 (9. 80%) breast cancers were negative for ER, PR and AR, 8(5. 23%) breast cancers were quadruple negative (ER-, PR-, AR- and HER-2 -) . There was significant difference of the expression of AR in ER/PR positive and negative breast cancer (P=0. 001),it was positively correlated with ER/PR protein expression (rs =0. 874, P=0. 024). The difference of AR ex-pression between histological grading was statistically significance ( P=0. 022 ) , the expression of AR was negatively correlated with histopathologic grading (rs = -0. 201, P=0. 013). The positive expression of AR was related to tumor size, but not correlated with lymph node metastasis ( P=0. 211 ) and clinical staging ( P=0. 065 ) . Conclusion The expression of AR in breast cancer tissues and its relationship with clinicopathological features may provide a basis for the further improvement molecular typing of breast cancer, and also provide the theoretical basis for clinical treatment and judging prognosis.

OBJECTIVETo research the influence of K(2)O composition in the raw material on leucite microcrystallization and to study the effect of leucite content on compressive strength of the dental glass ceramics reinforced by leucite microcrystallization.

METHODSThe raw materials with different K(2)O content were treated by a decided thermal treatment system. The products were analyzed by polaring microscope and X-ray diffractometer, and their compressive strength was also tested.

RESULTSThe microstructure of products from high K(2)O component was remarkably good, at microcrystal size of 0.8 micro m and the compressive strength was 206.6 MPa. A positive correlation was found between leucite volume and the compressive strength when leucite volume was less than 50% (Vol%).

CONCLUSIONSThe component of K(2)O has a great effect on the microstructure and the properties of the leucite-microcrystal-reinforced dental glass ceramics and the content of leucite microcrystals has a notable influence on the compressive strength of the dental glass ceramics.

UNLABELLEDWe designed a pair of specific primers and a TaqMan fluorescent probe targeting the toxR gene of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (VP). After optimizing the conditions, the specialty, sensitivity and reproducibility of the detection method were evaluated.

RESULTS(1) the developed real-time PCR assay protocol detected only VP and was not affected by other normal food pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonela, Listeria monocytogenes. (2) the limit of detection was 25 copies of toxR gene in the detected samples, and the sensitivity of pure cultures and simulated food samples was 21 cfu/mL and 210 cfu/g. (3) the developed protocol of real-time PCR assay had a high reproducibility, and the sample's variation was 0.9% and 1.3% within the same sample and between tests. (4) the standard curve had a good linearity when the gene quantity was between 2.5x10(1) and 2.5x10(6) copies. The developed detection assay targeting the toxR gene can quantitatively detect VP in only 3 hours, and thus is an efficacious method for the detection of Vibrio parahaemolyticus.

OBJECTIVETo develop a method for preparing a decellularized scaffold based on human liver tissue.

METHODSA surgical specimen of the left lateral lobe of the liver was obtained from a patients with hepatic hemangioma. The decellularization process was performed by repeated freezing-thawing, sequential perfusion with 0.01% SDS, 0.1% SDS and 1% Triton X-100 through the portal vein, and sterilization with peracetic acid. L-02 cells were then engrafted onto the decellularized liver scaffold.

RESULTSHE staining, DAPI staining and scanning electron microscopy all verified the absence of residual cellular components in the decellularized scaffold. The residual DNA content in the decellularized scaffolds was 25.3∓14.6 ng/mg (dry weight), which was less than 1% of the total DNA content in a fresh human liver. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated that type I and IV collagens, fibronectin and elastin were all retained in the scaffold. The engrafted L-02 cells survived well on the scaffold with active proliferation and expressed albumin and G6pc.

CONCLUSIONIt is feasible to prepare decellularized scaffolds using surgical specimens of human liver, which can be a new approach to constructing a tissue-engineered liver for clinical purposes.

We formulated a selective enrichment broth (SVV) for simultaneous growth of Salmonella, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, and Vibrio cholerae by single factor experiment and response surface method. We evaluated the enrichment effect of SVV by conventional culture method and real-time PCR assay. We obtained the SVV broth by supplementting the Buffered Peptone Water (BPW) with bile salt no. 3, potassium tellurite, and sodium citrate as inhibitors, and glucose, mannitol, snhydrous sodium sulfite and sodium pyruvate as accelerants. We also modified the concentration of sodium chloride in BPW. When mixed at equal or varied proportions, the target pathogens had a great accumulation (10(5)-10(8) CFU/mL) after incubated in SVV for 18 h at 37 degrees C with shaking. It can also effectively inhibit the competitive microflora. We detected 10 artificial simulated samples and 608 real samples using SVV with real-time PCR. After enriched in SVV for 18 h, the quantity of the bacteria in samples were above the detection limit. The SVV with PCR assay showed higher tested positive (4.06%) compared to that of the conventional detection method (3.78%) and there was no false report. In summary, SVV is a promising new multiplex selective enrichment broth that can be used in detection of seafood.
