A main complication of chemotherapy in cancer patients is hematopoiesis suppression. Microenviroment transplantation using bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) has been demonstrated to be a potent method in recovery of hematopoiesis in animal models. Based on hematopoiesis-supportive ability of BMSCs and high potency of IL-3 in hematopoiesis stimulation, BMSCs were studied as a cellular delivery system for IL-3 gene transfection to promote hematopoiesis recovery of mice after high dose chemotherapy. BMSCs were transfected with recombinant adenovirous containing murine IL-3 gene(MOI = 10), the level of mIL-3 secreted by gene-modified BMSCs was 110U/ml/10~6 cells/ 24h in vitro. The mice were injected with high dose cyclophosphamide(200mg/kg) i.p. and after 24 hours the IL-3 gene-modified BMSCs(2 x 10~6/mouse) were transplanted intrasplenically. White blood cell counts in peripheral blood of mice received intrasplenic injection of IL-3-BMSCs were kept at a high level within two weeks after chemotherapy. The pathological sections of spleens and bone marrow showed significant recovery of hematopoiesis, compared with that of mice received chemotherapy only. The data indicated the feasibility of IL-3 gene-modified BMSCs transplantation in the acceleration of hematopoiesis recovery after chemotherapy.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the diagnostic value of immunohistochemistry(IHC) for the identification and localization of Treponema pallidum(TP) in secondary syphilitic lesions.MethodsSkin tissue specimens were obtained from the lesions of 25 patients with secondary syphilis and 15 patients with dermatoses unrelated to TP infection,followed by fixation and embeding.IHC using a polyclonal antibody against TP and Warthin-Starry (W-S) silver stain were carried out respectively to detect TP in these specimens.Results TP was detected in 80.00％ (20/25) of the specimens by IHC,44.00％ by W-S silver stain (Fisher's Exact Test,P =0.046).Of the 20 IHC-based TP-positive specimens,all harbored TP in the epidermis,11 also in the dermis.The density of TP was associated with the types of skin lesions,and sequentially decreased from condyloma latum to papules,maculopapules and maculae(x2 =15.694,P =0.011 ).Spirochetes were not seen in any of the control lesional specimens.ConclusionsIHC is superior to traditional W-S silver stain for detecting spirochetes in secondary syphilitic lesions,and is of great value to the diagnosis of secondary syphilis.The accurate localization of TP by IHC may facilitate the study on the formation of syphilitic lesions.

Objective To construct a fusion protein to transfect some cell lines that were difficult to be transfected such as neoplastic cells, nerve cells, stem cells. Methods PCR was performed to amplified protein transductions domain(PTD),G4S and streptavidin (Strep).Enzymatic digestion and ligation were used to construct pAYZ-PTD-Strep plasmid. Fusion protein was induced to express by AP5 medium and was isolated by E-tag affinity chromatography. Fusion protein was identified by Western blot. eGFP was trasfected into U937 cells by pAYZ-PTD-Strep. FACS was performed to detect transfection percentage. Results Fusion protein PTD-G4S-Strep was expressed as soluble protein.The concentration of fusion protein was about 0.7 mg/L,and purity was over 90 ％. The protein could carry plasmid into a suspended cell line, U937 cells. The transfection-efficiency of protein was higher than monometer PTD.Conclusion The protein PAYZ-PTD-Strep could carry macromolecules into blood tumor cells,and its biological activity may be expected to develop into a highly efficient and reliable transfection method.

Aim Drug resistance is one of the major hinders on cancer treatments. α-enolase ( eno1 ) was closely related to the generation and development of drug resistance. This article aims to study the effect of eno1 on cell growth and drug resistance in human chro-nic myeloid leukemia cell line K562/A02 . Methods We screened three eno1 stable silencing cells K562/A02-sheno1 and its control cells K562/A02-shcon. Cell count assay was performed to test cell growth, MTT assay was used to test cell proliferation, flow cytometry was used to test the intra-cellular Rho123 content, the expression of genes were tested by real-time PCR assay and western blot assay on mRNA level and protein level, respectively. Results eno1 was o-ver-expressed in K562/A02 cells and its expression was increased by ( 2. 85 ± 0. 56 ) times and ( 1. 43 ± 0. 05 ) times on mRNA level and protein level com-pared to K562 cells. However, there was no difference in cell growth rate between K562/A02 cells and K562 cells. K562/A02-sheno1 cells showed lower cell growth rate and higher drug sensitivity to anti-cancer drugs taxol and doxorubicin. Moreover the Rho123 content was increased in K562/A02-sheno1 cells. The expression of MDR1 decreased in both mRNA level and protein level in K562/A02-sheno1 cells. Conclusion eno1 silencing could suppress cell growth, reverse drug resistance and increase its drug sensitivity in K562/A02 cells, and the mechanism was associated with the MDR1 gene.

Objective To identify multidrug resistance (MDR) associated cell surface antigen in hematologic neoplasia and to investigate the universality of membrane-relocated expression of this antigen in hematologic neoplasia.Methods The membrane antigen was isolated and precipitated by SDS-PAGE and co-immunoprecipitation (co-IP),then was identified by mass spectrum (MS).Specific siRNA was used to interfere with gene expression,laser confocal microsopy was used to validate the results involved in antigen information.FACS was performed to analyse relocated expression of the antigen in hematologic neoplasia.Results Co-IP and MS show that a nuclear factor PSF was the antigen of 5D12,a leukemia-MDR associated McAb,and this antigen could relocate on HL-60 cell membrane.A series of experiences further confirmed that PSF overexpressed on HL-60 cell membrane compared with HL-60/ADR.The binding percentages of 5D12 to many hematologic tumor cells were observed,HL-60 (78.56±0.76) ％,K562 (26.54±4.42) ％,Nomalwa (38.10±5.11) ％,U937 (64.03±7.96) ％,Jurkat (29.12±5.58) ％,Raji (74.92±3.41) ％,CEM (12.18±3.21) ％.Conclusion Nuclear protein,PSF relocalizes on cell surfaces in hematologic tumor cells and contributes to cell sensitivity.PSF is a potential target of MDR prediction in hematologic neoplasia.

This article reports the successful experience of integration of burn treatment and rehabilitation for a child suffering from 91% TBSA flame burn injury (with 60% TBSA full-thickness injury, 30% TBSA deep partial-thickness injury, and 1% TBSA superficial partial-thickness injury), severe inhalation injury, severe burn shock, stress ulcer, gastrointestinal bleeding and atelectasis of the right upper lung. The patient was given effective fluid infusion against shock, treatment for gastrointestinal bleeding, and other effective supportive treatment for functions of various organs after being admitted to our burn ward. When vital signs became stable at 30 hours post injury, bedside rehabilitation was begun. On post injury day (PID) 4, escharectomy was performed for both lower limbs, followed by microskin grafting and allogeneic skin covering. On PID 10, invasive infection of multi-drug resistant bacteria was found with accompanied high fever, and at the same time allograft began to disintegrate, with dissolution of large area of eschar, leading to a raw surface reaching 86% TBSA. Following debridement, dressing, application of compound polymyxin B ointment, temporary covering of wounds with porcine acellular dermal matrix, adjustment of antibiotics, patient's condition was finally stabilized. From PID 28 on, split-thickness skin grafting was conducted 7 times, and the raw surface of 75% TBSA involving the upper and lower limbs and trunk was successfully covered. At the same time, our rehabilitation team launched comprehensive rehabilitation measures comprising active exercise, occupational therapy, prevention of scar formation, organ function training and psychological intervention. Finally, the patient was able to walk unaided and fed herself when the wounds were almost entirely healed in 3 months after injury. Oriented forwards functional rehabilitation, strong cooperation between team members, and synchronous effective implementation of burn treatment and rehabilitation in the whole process are the keys to achieve successful integration of burn treatment and rehabilitation of this child.
