Objective To investigate the genetic changes of FGR and TP73 in PTCL-NOS, in order to verify the results of our previous a-CGH study and to explore their role on the pathogenesis of PTCL-NOS. Methods A total of 34 cases, of which 19 cases were examined by a-CGH, were investigated by interphasedual-colour FISH using homemade site-specific probes of FGR and TP73 by using a labelling method of nick translation and commercial probe CEP1. Results In general, 7 of 34 (20.6 %) cases of PTCL-NOS showed genetic aberrations, of which 4 cases had changes on both of the loci of FGR and TP73, including 3 cases of amplification and 1 loss of heterozygosity (LOH), 1 case of FGR amplification and other 2 TP73 amplification only. CEP1 amplification was detected in 4 cases (11.8 %), simultaneously associated with FGR/ TP73 gene amplification. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis indicated there was a trend that the group with genetic changes had a poorer prognosis than the group of non-genetic changes, and so as the group of TP73 genetic changes compared with the group of TP73 non-genetic changes, although their was no statistical significance (P >0.05). Conclusion The outcome of this study partially verified the results of a-CGH, and aberration of lymphoma-related genes FGR and TP73, and the amplification of CEP1 may play a significant role in the pathogenesis of PTCL-NOS.

BACKGROUND:As a new kind of adult stem cells, adipose-derived stem cells get more and more attention, because of rich source, drawing materials easily and powerful proliferation. OBJECTIVE:To isolate and culture adipose-derived stem cells from the epididymal adipose tissue in mice, and to identify their biological characteristics. METHODS:Adipose tissue was obtained from epididymis in mice by aseptical y cutting. The tissue was digested using col agenase. Adipose-derived stem cells were separated and purified by using one digestion, multiple col ection method and differential adhesion method. The morphology of adipose-derived stem cells was observed using inverted microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Growth curve of adipose-derived stem cells was drawn. Immunophenotype of adipose-derived stem cells was identified by flow cytometry. Adipose-derived stem cells were induced to differentiate into adipocytes and osteocytes using cellinductors. Compatibility of adipose-derived stem cells and col agen scaffold material was observed using scanning electron microscope. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Adipose-derived stem cells exhibited long spindle-like or fibroblast-like appearance, grew intensively and arranged in scrol and fascicular shape. In vitro, adipose-derived stem cells could be passaged to passage 9 under the inverted microscope. Under the transmission electron microscope, adipose-derived stem cells showed abundant microvil i on the cellsurface. The nuclei were big in size. Some organel es were seen in cytoplasma, such as mitochondria and rough endoplasmic reticulum. Adipose-derived stem cells expressed CD44 and CD29, did not express CD34. After inducing by inductor, many smal lipid droplets were seen in the cytoplasm of adipose-derived stem cells. The smal lipid droplets were dyed red with oil red O. After induction of osteogenic inductor, the boundary line among adipose-derived stem cells was not clear and the structure of cells was fuzzy in the growth-intensive areas. There were many strong refractive granular material deposits at that field after dyeing with alizarin red. Scanning electron microscope revealed that adipose-derived stem cells were spread on the col agen scaffold. Results suggested that adipose-derived stem cells isolated by this method could amplify in vitro and stably subcultured. Under a certain inducing condition, adipose-derived stem cells could differentiate into osteoblasts and adipocytes, which showed a good compatibility with col agen scaffold.

Objective To investigate the inducible ability of plasmid DNA carrying a RU486 regulatory system.Methotis Plasmid pRS22 containing RU486 regulatory system,liver specific promoter and transgene IL-12 was injected into mice by hydrodynamic injection.RU486 was injected intraperitoneally into mice at difierent time points after plasmid administration.The IL-12 1evel in serum was tested by an ELISA kit.The distribution and inducible expression of pRS22 in mice were assayed by measuring DNA,RNA and protein levels by PCR,RT-PCR and immunohistochemical staining.Resuits To determine the duration of the activity of plasmid pRS22,mice injected with 10μg of pRS22 were treated repeatedly with 250μg/kg of RU486 per 7 days after hydrodynamic injection of plasmid.IL-12 expression in serum abruptly increased to peak was detected at 10 h after induction and declined to baseline on day 6.Though peak values of IL-12 decreased gradually after each induction,IL-12 in serum could be induced until 15 weeks after plasmid administration.A total of 5μg of pRS22 was injected into mice to detect the effect of different induction manners on the IL-12 expression.The mice were treated with RU486 per day or per 2 days iil 6 days,respectively.The induction per 2 days resulted in a wavelike pattern of serum IL-12 expression with peak lev-els on the day of induction alternating with lower values on the following day.In contrast,sustained levels of IL-12 could be achieved by administering RU486 per day.Plasmid DNA and GLp65 mRNA were detected in liver of mice with or without RU486 until at least day 28 after plasmid administration.However,IL-12 p35 mRNA was detected only in the liver of mice with RU486 induction.IL-12 immunohistochemical staining in liver demonstrated that IL-1 2 expressed predominantly in the hepatocytes near the surface of liver or between the central vein and portal area after induction with RU486.In contrast,no IL-12 expression was observed in the hepatocytes after induction with sesame oil.Conclusion Tight temporal and spatial control of transgene IL-12 expression could be achieved by RU486 regulatory system driven by liver specific promoter.

Objective To discuss the anatomical and radiographic characteristics of acetabular fossa,and evaluate their value as a reference for achieving the anticipated inclination of the acetabular cup.Methods Sixteen adult normal pelvic specimens were studied.Central axis of acetabular fossa and its intersection with fossa edge and acetabular rim were marked.The radiographic appearance of the two intersections was evaluated.With radiographic templating,the relationship between the top of acetabular fossa and the central axis of acetabular cup at anticipated inclination was identified.Implantation of cementless acetabular cup was performed bilaterally on the pelvic specimens.The acetabular fossa was used as a reference for implantation on one side,and the acetabular positioning device was used on the other side.The discrepancy of acetabular inclination was recorded before and after operation in the two groups.Results Intersection of central axis of acetabular fossa with fossa top edge and acetabular rim corresponded to the most medial and lateral aspect of acetabular sourcil respectively on standard anteroposterior pelvic radiograph.There was close correlation between most medial aspect of acetabular sourcil and central axis of the acetabular cup at anticipated inclination of 40°±5°.For the group of using acetabular fossa as reference,the mean difference of inclination was 0.19°±3.14°(-6°-5°)before and after operation,and the discrepancy was 2.75°±2.89°(-2°-8°)for the control group.The difference between the two groups was statistically significant(t=-2.453,P=0.027).Conclusion In primary total hip replacement,if normal anatomy of acetabulum was found,the anticipated inclination of acetabular cup can be accurately obtained,based on the relationship between the top of acetabular fossa and anticipated inclination of acetabular cup on preoperative templating.

The study is to prepare taste masking and enteric-coated clarithromycin granules by melting and fluid bed coating technology. Clarithromycin and matrix materials were melted at a certain temperature, and then made into particles by fluidized bed coating. X-ray powder diffraction and scanning electron microscopy were used to identify the crystal and morphology of drug loading granules. In vitro dissolution method was used for the observation of the drug release behavior. The results showed that the drug particles size range was 0.2 - 0.6 mm; the crystal form of clarithromycin in the granule did not change; enteric-coated granules accumulated release in 0.1 mol L(-1) hydrochloric acid in 2 h was less than 10%, while in pH 6.8 phosphate buffer in 1 h was more than 80%. The taste masking and enteric-coated clarithromycin granules not only have good taste masking effect, but also have a good release behavior. It is expected to have better clinical application.
