OBJECTIVEThe purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the results of flowcytometry analyses of different clinical stage, location, pathologic grade and cell origin of oral and maxillofacial non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), and the diagnostic value of flowcytometry analysis in lymphoma.
METHODThis study analyzed 50 oral and maxillofacial NHL cases and 10 reactive lymph nodes (formalin fixed and paraffin embedded) by flowcytometry (FCM).
RESULTSReactive lymph nodes were all diploid. The diploid rate of NHL was 54%, and aneuploidy rate was 46%. There was statistically significant difference between reactive lymph nodes and NHL in the DNA ploidy status and cell cycle data (SPF, CV, S + G2/M, DI). The S phase fraction (SPF) and S + G2/M had close relationship with the grade of NHL. SPF value and DNA ploidy status had no obvious relationship with the prognosis.
CONCLUSIONThe results suggested that the FCM had diagnostic value in NHL, especially when the morphological diagnosis was difficult. Although the cell cycle data had no prognostic value, SPF and SPF + G2/M can show the proliferative status of NHL, which can help clinical doctor select therapeutic method.

ObjectiveTo observe the effects of six stagnations elimination therapy on the content of typeⅠ, typeⅢ collagens and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) expression in atherosclerotic mice with vulnerable plaques, to discuss the possible mechanisms of this therapy in stabilizing vulnerable plaques.Methods The ApoE knockout mice were fed on high-fat diets, which built the vulnerable plaques model. Five groups were established, including normal group, model group, high-dose group, low-dose group, and simvastatin group, with 10 mice in each group. Dose groups were given drug intervention, while normal group and model group were given in the same amount of saline. After 12 weeks of drug intervention, the mice were put to death. TypeⅠ and typeⅢcollagens were observed using picric acid-Sirius red staining method. The expression of MMP-9 was detected by immunohistochemical method.ResultsCompared with normal group, vulnerable plaques formed more easily in model group.Compared with model group, typeⅠ collagen increased in high-does and low-dose groups, while typeⅢ collagen, the ratio of typeⅢ andⅠ collagens, and the expression of MMP-9 decreased (P<0.01).ConclusionSix stagnations elimination therapy could stabilize vulnerable plaques. Regulating typeⅠ andⅢ collagens content and inhibiting the expression of MMP-9 may be one of its possible mechanisms.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of the current measure of Oncomelania hupensis control in Jiangsu Province. Methods The snail control was carried out with molluscicides in the high transmission areas every year. Some snail habitat areas were modified. The snail areas within three years were re-treated with molluscicides in the maintenance phase. The snail survey was carried out every spring, and the data were analysed with SAS software. Results From 1995 to 2001, 14519.17 hm 2 of snail habitats were molluscicided, 2768.57 hm 2 were modified, and 8803.64 hm 2 were re-treated with molluscicides in the maintenance phase. The coverage rates of snail control areas dropped by 19.14% every year. The snail areas increased by 6.25% every year from 1995 to 2002. In which, the areas of infected snails increased by 18.52% every year. The correlation analysis showed that the areas of infected snails increased with the increasing of the total snail areas. At the same time, the areas of infected snails increased with the fall of the coverage rates of snail control areas. The analysis of the snail distribution showed that the main problem was poor snail control. Conclusion In recent years, the rise of area of snail habitats is serious in Jiangsu Province. The present measures of the snail control have not effectively stopped the spreading and increasing of snails. The research on the new molluscicides, the new methods of snail control and the better policies are very important.

Objective To investigate the expression profiles of microRNA in early esophageal squamous cancer and normal esophageal tissues and verify the significantly different expression miRNAs , further to study the effects on proliferation of EC109. Methods The microarray assay was performed to analyze miRNA expression profiles in three pairs of early esophageal squamous cancer and the corresponding normal esophageal tissues. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used in another 38 pairs samples to further verify the differentially expressed miRNAs . Three verified miRNAs ( miR-29a, miR-221 and miR-222) mimics were transfected into EC109 respectively and CCK8 method was used to study the effect of cell proliferation in each miRNA. Results Microarray technique selected 53 miRNAs that differentially expressed in early esophageal squamous cancer and normal esophageal tissues , 32 miRNAs were up-regulated and 21 miRNAs were down-regulated. qRT-PCR verified that miR-29a was significantly down-regulated (P < 0.05) and miR-221, miR-222 were significantly up-regulated (P < 0.05) in early esophageal squamous cancer tissue. Over-expression of miR-29a could significantly inhibit the proliferation of EC109 (P < 0.05) whereas over-expression of miR-221 or miR-222 could both significantly promote the proliferation of EC109 (P < 0.05). Conclusion There was significant difference of miRNAs expression between early esophageal squamous cancer and normal esophageal tissues, and the differentially expressed miRNAs could be used as new biomarkers for early diagnosis of esophageal squamous cancer.

Objective To identify the trend of endemic situation among surveillance sites in Jiagsu Province from 2000 to 2002. Methods Twelve schistosomiasis surveillance sites were es-tablished ,and the longitudinal, surveillance was carried out. Results The related index of snail increased in most of surveillance sites, the rates of positive snails rose rapidly in marshlands. The infection rates of Schitosoma janponicum of cattle decreased and infection rates of human were relatively steady. However, there was still the danger of heavy endemic. Conclusion Current control strategies can not effectively adapt to the endemic situation of schistosomiasis, although which have some effects on control of morbidity. We need to study the new characteristics and rule of the endemic of schistosomiasis, and make out more effective control strategies which can suit with the current society, economies and nature environment.
