Objective To study the rule of gene expression profiles of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), and to find new sensitive molecules which express specifically in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC) of CML patients, in order to further elucidate the potential molecular biological mechanisms leading to CML. Methods The expression of mRNA from PBMC of CML patients was compared with that of normal controls using a cDNA microarray. The bioinformatics analysis was used for every up- or down-regulated gene in CML. The new gene with unknown function and no homology to known genes in the database was confirmed, and electric polymerase chain reaction was conducted for the cloning of its full-length DNA in conjunction with Kozak rule and the exit of polyadenyl signal sequence. Sequence specific primers were designed to amplify the new gene from the mRNA of CML PBMC with the reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR). Results Many genes commonly up- or down-regulated in CML cells were identified. Of these, we found a novel gene with unknown function with high expression in the patients cells. Its nucleotide sequence and corresponding protein-encoding amino acid had been determined, which contained 1 872nt and 624aa respectively. We named the new gene as human chronic myelogenous leukemia associated protein gene (CMLAP), and logged the sequence of the CMLAP gene into the GenBank with the accession number AY762229. Conclusion CMLAP gene expressed highly in CML PBMC was cloned and identified successfully by combining DNA chip technology and bioinformational technology. The gene was likely to play an important role in the disease and might serve as a molecular marker for CML. The findings will pave the way for the further study of the molecular mechanism of CML.

Objective To investigate the potential effect of 4-amino-pynidine(4-AP)on human cervical carcinoma cell line HeLa to 252Cf neutron ray.Methods HeLa cells were treated with 4-AP(0,1,5,10,20 mmol/L,respectively)and then exposed to 0.67 Gy 252Cf neutron ray.The effect of 4-AP on proliferation of HeLa cells was assessed by MTT assay.Cell apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry.Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)and Western blotting were used to investigate the levels of HIF-1? mRNA and protein of HeLa cells treated with 4-AP(0,20 mmol/L)and 0.67 Gy 252Cf neutron ray.Results After HeLa cells treated with 0,1,5,10,20 mmol/L 4-AP were exposed to 0.67 Gy 252Cf neutron ray for 48 h,their inhibitory rate was 0,(38.81 ?3.45)%,(46.63?3.88)%,(63.58?6.19)%,(77.51?8.87)%,and their apoptotic rate was(3.15?0.85)%,(8.01?1.19)%,(16.00?1.58)%,(47.20?3.18)%,(62.56?4.27)%,respectively,suggesting 4-AP may inhibit the proliferation of HeLa cells and induce their apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner(P0.05).However,after treated with 20 mmol/L 4-AP and exposed to 0.67 Gy 252Cf neutron ray for 24,48 and 72 h,the optical density ratio of HIF-1? mRNA/?-actin of HeLa cells was(0.401?0.121),(0.364?0.142),(0.257?0.137),(0.165?0.099),while the optical density ratio of HIF-1? protain/?-actin were(0.879?0.117),(0.645?0.115),(0.312?0.114),(0.130?0.118),showing that the levels of HIF-1? mRNA and protein both declined(P

OBJECTIVE To retrospectively analyze the clinical characteristics of the benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) secondary to the sudden deafness (SD) and to explore the possible pathogenetic mechanism, diagnosis and treatment. METHODS 218 cases of the SD in our department were retrospectively analyzed, and 37 patients with primary BPPV during the same period were used as control group. All patients were confirmed by the examination of Dix-Hallpike and the roll check,the primary disease (sudden deafness) of secondary BPPV patients were in line with the Chinese Medical Association diagnostic criteria. RESULTS In all these patients with SD,there were 91 cases with BPPV secondary to the SD. There were 67 cases of BPPV of posterior semicircular canal and 21 cases of BPPV of lateral BPPV semicircular canal. Besides, 3 cases were of multi-semicircular canal affected. All patients with BPPV were diagnosed as the same ears as the SD. The symptoms were alleviated and initial success rate was 68.1%. During 6-22 month follow-ups, total success rate was 100%, and recurrence rate was7.7% (7/91). The hearing recovery of high frequency is worse than that of the low frequency. There were 2 cases of recurrence in lateral BPPV group, 5 cases in posterior BPPV group. All were cured by reposositioning maneuver. All patients with primary and secondary BPPV were cured with Epley maneuver or Barbecue roll maneuver, and the curative effect of them is similar. CONCLUSION The occurrence of BPPV may follow SD,and the majority of BPPV secondary to the SD occurs in the posterior semicircular canal. The canalith repositioning is an effective therapy for secondary BPPV.

Objective To investigate and analyze the behavior and therapeutic status of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. Methods Out patients diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis in our hospital from May to August 2007 were enrolled. The data including sex, age of onset, site of first hospitalization and medication status were collected and analyzed. Results In this 181 RA patients, the mean age of onset was (53±11) year-old, mean history duration was (10±8) years, the ratio of male to female was 1:4.2. The orthopedics department was the most common site of first hospital visit (32.0%, 58/181) and rheumatology department was the most common site to clarify the diagnosis (62.4% ,113/181). The diagnosis delay caused by patients themselves was (5.9±17.2) months and the delay caused by doctors was (9.0±22.0) months. More than half of the patients were not treated appropriately before they came to our hospital. Methotrexate was the most commonly used DMARDs (67.3%), followed by leflunomide (46.4%), sulfasalazine (37.5%) and hydroxyehloroquine (19.6%). Conclusion In this cohort, the proportion of patients who come to rheumatology department immediately after disease onset is low. There is delay between symptoms and final diagnosis. More than half of the patients are not treated appropriately.

Background Animal model of fungal keratitis is an available tool to the experimental study of the pathogenesis mechanism of fungal keratitis. Current modeling methods of fungal keratitis include corneal scratching, corneal stroma injection and corneal surface lens methods. But these methods still have their own shortages. Objective This experiment was to create a fungal keratitis animal model by modifying corneal surface lens method. Methods Modified animal models of fungal keratitis were created by modified corneal surface lens method in 12 general adult New Zealand white rabbits. The filter papers soaked 108 spores / ml or A106spores / ml of spergillus fumigatus suspension were attached on the de-epithelial cornea surface and fixed with contact lens and tarsorrhaphy for 2 days, and the filter paper with physiological saline was used as control group. The symptoms of anterior segment were examined under the slit lamp in 3 ,7 and 14 days after surgery and scored based on the criteria of Dong. Corneal scraping was stained with 10% potassium hydroxide and calcofluor white stain to observed mycelium under the fluorescence microscope. Corneal tissue sections were examined by hematoxylin-eosin staining and periodic acid Schiff staining under the light microscope. The use of animal followed the Standard of Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology. Results Fungal keratitis models were successfully established in 6 eyes and 4 eyes in 108 spores/ml group (6/6) and 106 spores/ml group respectively. The symptom was more severer and score was higher in the eyes of 108 spores/ml group than that in 106 spores/ml group. At 3 and 7 days after surgery,the symptom scores of fungal keratitis models were higher than those of control group from 3 through 7 days with the statistically significant difference (P<0. 01) and the symptom scores of 108 spores/ml group were significantly higher than those of 106 spores/ml group (P<0. 01). At 14 days after surgery, the symptom scores of 108 spores/ml group were still higher than those of control group (P<0. 05). Fungal hyphae was seen in the corneal scrapes in 108 spores/ml group and 106 spores/ml group respectively from 3 through 7 days after surgery. Inflammatory cell infiltration, stroma cells necrosis and fungal hyphae were presented in 108 spores/ml group, and the corneal neovascularization could be observed in 108 spores / ml group 14 days later. Fungal culture revealed the positive outcome in both 3 and 7 days after surgery in 108 spores/ml group,but in 106 spores/ml group,the positive result was only in the 3rd day. Conclusion Modified corneal surface lens method is more feasible and sample in the model of Aspergillus keratitis. This animal model of Aspergillus keratitis is practical for the further study of fungal keratitis.

Objective To evaluate the protective effect of Ulinastatin on pathological changes of lung induced by paraquat (PQ) intoxication in rats. Method Sixty female SD rats were randomly and equally divided into three groups ( n = 20 in each group). On the experimental day, the rats of group A (control group) received 1 mL of saline intragastrically; the rats of group B (PQ, group) received 1 mL of PQ intragastrically (40 mg/kg diluted in saline) and then treated with saline injected intraperitoneally once a day, and the rats of group Group C (Ulinastatin treatment group) received 1 mL of PQ intragastrically (40 mg/kg,diluted in saline) and then treated with 1 mL of Ulinastatin ( 120 000 IU/kg) intraperitoneally twice a day. The rats ( n = 5 in each subgroup) were sacrificed on the 7th, 14th, 21st, and 28th day for observing the histopathological changes of the lung stained with hematoxylin-eosin stain (HE) and Masson's trichrome stain. Data were semi-quantitatively analyzed by SPSS10.0 software. Hierarchical data were analyzed by rank and inspection. The data that have significance analyzed by comparison test (Bonferroni methods). Results Paraquat intoxication resulted in significant alveolitis and lung fibrosis. Ulinastatin treatment alleviated lung edema, hemorrhage, inflammatory cell infiltration, and fiber aggregation. Conclusions These data demonstrated the Ulinastatin exerted protective effects against PQ-induced lung injury. Ulinastatin could to be used in clinical management for PQ intoxication.
