Objective To investigat the changes of hemodynamics and arterial blood gas during the establishment of ECMO model and provide an ideal platform for the study of the mechanism of DCD protection using ECMO, a porcine model of controlled donors of cardiac death (CDCD) with extracorporeal support was established in the paper. Methods Eight domestic crossbred pigs were anes-thetized, atracurium (1mg/kg) and heparin (150~200 U/kg) was administered and the ventilator was discontinued while the animal was under deep anesthesia to kill the animal.Meanwhile, blood was drained from the left jugular vein catheter into the ECMO circuit and re-turned into the left femoral artery to establish the porcine model of CDCD with extracorporeal support . The average blood press and arterial blood gas were ministered at normal, cardiac arrest and ECMO supporting 1 h, 3 h and 5 h. Results The model of CDCD with extra-corporeal support was established successfully.Two animals restored the beating of the heart and the high doses of potassium chloride were given untill cardiac arrest during extracorporeal support.Blood gases throughout the apneic time showed a severe hypoxemia and acidosis, pH and PaO2 reduced to 7.09 ±0.24 and 5.3 ±0.93mmHg respective-ly, which can be improved during extracorporeal support.MAP and PaO2 were maintained over 300mmHg and 65mmHg respectively. Conclusion A new porcine model of controlled donors of cardiacdeath with extracorporeal support has been successfully established and showed to be feasible for related pathophysiological research work.

OBJECTIVETo assess the value of chromosomal karyotyping and array-based comparative genomic hybridization for the diagnosis of fetus with abnormalities detected by ultrasonography.
METHODSUmbilical cord blood samples were derived from 1 603 pregnant women. The samples were cultured for routine G-banding karyotype analysis. Among these, 792 samples have further subjected to array CGH analysis.
RESULTSAmong the 1 603 fetuses, 117 (7.30%) were found with chromosomal abnormalities. These included 72 numerical aberrations and 45 structural abnormalities, which respectively accounted for 4.49% and 2.81% of all cases. For those <35 years and ≥ 35 years, a significant difference has been found in terms of fetal chromosomal abnormalities (chi-square is 30.687, P< 0.01). And there was also a significant difference between those with isolated, two or multiple ultrasonographic markers (chi-square is 85.50, P< 0.01). Among 736 fetuses with a normal karyotype, array CGH has detected 17 (2.31%) with a microdeletion or microduplication.
CONCLUSIONKaryotype analysis and array CGH should be offered to all fetuses with ultrasonography detected anomalies regardless the number of markers.

OBJECTIVETo use combined comparative genome hybridization (array-CGH) and conventional karyotype analysis to study the relationship between ultrasonographic abnormalities of fetuses and chromosomal aberrations.
METHODSOne hundred twenty two fetuses with ultrasonographic abnormalities in middle and late trimesters suspected with chromosomal abnormalities were collected between March 2012 and February 2013.
RESULTSThe pregnant women had an average age of 31 yr (22-38), among whom 35 were above the age of 35. The average gestational age was 27(+5) weeks (18-37 weeks), and the most common abnormal findings have involved heart, central nervous system and bones. Multiple malformations were found in 49 cases. The success rate of the combined methods was 100%. In 24 (19.7%) of the cases, a chromosomal abnormality was detected. Among all cases, 16 (13.1%) were detected by the combined method (12.3%). Seventeen cases (13.9%) of chromosomal abnormalities and 4 cases (3.3%) of polymorphic variation were detected by karyotype analysis, and 23 cases (8.9%) of abnormalities were detected by array-CGH. Meanwhile, 7 cases (5.7%) of abnormalities were detected by array-CGH, but the results of karyotype analysis were normal. One case (0.8%) with low level of chromosome chimerism detected by the karyotype analysis was missed by array-CGH.
CONCLUSIONThe results suggested that multiple congenital deformity of the fetus has a strong correlation with chromosomal abnormalities. For fetuses with ultrasonographic abnormalities, array-CGH can improve the detection sensitivity of the chromosomal disease.

OBJECTIVETo explore the present contamination status and profile of toxaphene in fish, chicken and meat samples in Pearl River Delta area.
METHODSTotally 60 independent samples including fish, chicken, meat were collected from Huizhou,Guangzhou,Dongguan,Jiangmen of Pearl River Delta area in Guangdong by purposive sampling from Oct 2010 to Jun 2011. Toxaphene monomer Parlar26, Parlar50 and Parlar62 levels in three various categories of foods were quantitatively and qualitatively analyzed referencing international authoritative standard methods by utilizing isotope dilution high-resolution gas chromatography/high-resolution double-focusing magnetic mass spectrometry (HRGC-HRMS). The levels of pollution and characteristics were compared.
RESULTSThe concentration of toxaphene median(M) in fish, chicken and meat were 12.87, 5.8 and 1.89 ng/kg (gross weight) , respectively and the difference was significant(H = 14.29, P = 0.001). The toxaphene level in seafish (M = 32.07 ng/kg) was significantly higher than that in freshwater fish (M = 10.63 ng/kg, Z = -2.52, P = 0.012). The profile analysis showed that Parlar50 and Parlar26 were the predominant characteristic monomers in fish, which contributed about 44% (9.91/22.60, ng/kg) and 39% (8.89/22.60, ng/kg) to total concentration, and Parlar62 and Parlar26 were the two predominant congeners in poultry products, the two congeners accounted for 42% (5.03/11.90, ng/kg) and 38% (4.58/11.90, ng/kg). Furthermore Parlar26 and Parlar62 made up about 57% (3.45/6.08, ng/kg) and 26% (1.58/6.08, ng/kg) of total concentration in livestock meat respectively.
CONCLUSIONToxaphene levels in all tested food samples are far lower than the limited standard stipulated by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) in 2002, which was 0.1 mg/kg. The congener characteristic difference in the three categories food indicated that the different enrichment ability in Toxaphene in different animal species.

Objective:To study the expression of methyltransferase-like protein 14 (METTL14) in epithelial ovarian cancer and its clinical significance, and to explore the effect of METTL14 expression on the proliferation, invasion and migration of ovarian cancer cells.Methods:Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to detect METTL14 expression in tumor tissue samples, and analyze the relationships among METTL14 expression, clinicopathological factors, and prognosis in ovarian cancer. Lentiviral vectors and small interfering RNA (siRNA) were used to up-regulate and down-regulate the METTL14 expression in ovarian cancer cell lines A2780 and SKOV3, respectively. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was used to detect the N6-methyladenosine (m6A) content in ovarian cancer cells. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8), wound healing assay, and transwell assay were used to examine the function of METTL14 expression in the cells.Results:(1) The IHC score of METTL14 protein was 6.2±3.7 in 20 samples of ovarian cancer tissues and 3.3±2.5 in 15 samples of normal ovarian tissues, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-2.64, P=0.012). Among the patients who suffered from ovarian cancer, there were 69 cases with high expression of METTL14 protein (IHC score≥6), accounting for 57.0% (69/121), and the cases with low expression of METTL14 protein (IHC score<6) accounting for 43.0% (52/121). Compared with the patients with low expression of METTL14, the patients with high expression of METTL14 had later stages, higher rates of lymph node metastasis, abdominal metastasis, and more ascite amount. The differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The overall survival rate was significantly lower in patients with high METTL14 expression than the low expression ( P=0.009). (2) LC-MS/MS data showed that the relative expression of m6A in A2780 and SKOV3 cells in the lentivirus (LV)-METTL14 group were 0.213±0.024 and 0.181±0.018, which were significantly higher than those in the LV-normal control (NC) group (0.109±0.022 and 0.128±0.020; all P<0.05). While the relative expression of m6A in A2780 and SKOV3 cells in the si-METTL14 group were 0.063±0.012 and 0.069±0.015, which were significantly lower than the expression in si-NC group of 0.108±0.014 and 0.121±0.014 (all P<0.05). CCK-8 assay showed that the absorbance values were significantly lower in the si-METTL14 group compared with the si-NC group at 36, 48, 60 hours (all P<0.05); while were significantly increased in the LV-METTL14 group compared with the LV-NC group at 48, 60 hours (all P<0.01). Scratch wound assays showed that the migration rate of the si-METTL14 group was lower than those of the si-NC group, while the LV-METTL14 group were higher than the LV-NC group by 24 hours, the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.01). Cell migration and invasion were detected by transwell migration and invasion assays. After cultivated for 24 hours, the invasion cell number and the migration cell number in the si-METTL14 group were less than those in the si-NC group. While the invasion cell number and the migration cell number in the LV-METTL14 group were more than those in the LV-NC group, respectively. The differences were statistically significant (all P<0.01). Conclusion:Patients with high METTL14 expression have a worse prognosis in ovarian cancer, which may increase the m6A modification of ovarian cancer cells and promote cells proliferation, invasion and migration.
