Objective To investigate the relationship between expression of mucin1 (MUC1) and tumor invasion in pituitary adenomas.Methods The expression of MUC1 was detected by immunohistochemical analysis in 26 tissues of invasive pituitary adenoma and 29 of non-invasive pituitary adenoma.Results The expression of MUC1 in invasive pituitary adenomas tissues was 76.92 ％ (20/26).It was weakly positive or negative in non-invasive pituitary adenoma tissues,and the positive rate was 27.57 ％ (8/29).There was significant difference in two groups (x2 =13.35,P ＜ 0.01).The expression of MUC1 in functional pituitary adenomas was 44.82 ％ (13/35) and was 75.00 ％ (15/20) in non-functional pituitary adenomas.There were no significant difference in two groups (x2 =6.13,P ＞ 0.01).Conclusions Over-expression and aberrant localization of MUC1 in invasive pituitary adenoma may act as distinguishing diagnostic markers of invasive pituitary adenoma.MUC1 might be as the target of immunotherapy of invasive pituitary adenoma.

To observe the effect of various doses of oil of Piper longum unsaponifiable matter (OPUM) to cholesterol gallstones in experimental mice. C57BL/6 mice (n = 60) were randomly divided into 6 groups: control group, model group, OPUM (15, 30 and 60 mg x kg(-1)) group and ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA, 60 mg x kg(-1)) group, administered for 10 weeks. The level of serum lipid and liver function enzymes were tested. The gallbladder was removed and bile was obtained by centrifugation. Next, the levels of the bile total cholesterol (TC), phospholipid (PL) and bile acid (TBA) were measured. The indicators of lipid peroxidation were determined and cholesterol saturation index (CSI) was calculated. The liver histological changes were observed by HE staining. The results showed that serum TC, TG (triglycerides) and AST (aspartate transaminase) contents, gallbladder cholesterol crystallization and CSI increased significantly (P < 0.05). In addition, the activity of SOD decreased significantly and MDA content increased significantly in liver (P < 0.05). HE staining results showed that the hepatic cord disorder and intracellular lipid droplets increased significantly. All results indicate that lithogenic diet lead to the formation of cholesterol gallstones. In OPUM (30 and 60 mg x kg(-1)) group, serum TC, TG and AST content, gallbladder cholesterol crystallization and CSI decreased significantly, the activity of SOD increased significantly and MDA content decreased significantly. HE staining results showed that OPUM can improve the morphology of liver cell, reduce the degree of hepatic cord disorders and restore the cell morphology close to normal. The cause of OPUM prevents cholesterol gallstone formation maybe due to protect the integrity of the liver cells, lower CSI, and reduce cholesterol crystal formation and hence prevent cholesterol gallstone formation.

ZnO nanoparticles ( ZnO NPs ) were obtained by a direct precipitation method. With the as-prepared ZnO NPs as seeds, Au/ZnO heterostructure was synthesized by seed-mediated growth method without any surfactant, and the diameters of ZnO NPs and Au NPs were about 50 nm and 10 nm, respectively. Then ionic liquids (ILs), trihexyltetradecylphosphonium bis (trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imide ([P(C6)3C14] [ Tf2 N] ) , and functionalized graphene ( GN ) were prepared under room temperature. The ILs as bridges could connect Au/ZnO heterostructure to form a new kind of graphene nanocomposite, Au/ZnO/GN. Then the penicillinase and hematein were immobilized on Au/ZnO/GN. And the biosensors based on penicillinase-hematein-Au/ZnO/GN (PH-AZG) were used for detecting penicillin G. In PBS buffer solution (pH 7. 0), PH-AZG exhibited a detection range from 2 . 5 × 10-14 to 3 . 3 × 10-6 mol/L with a detection limit of 1 . 5 × 10-14 mol/L (S/N≥3). Five PH-AZG electrodes were prepared with the same conditions, and the RSDs for their current response were less than 3. 2%. Furthermore, the standard curves were linear in the range of 5× 10-14-5×10-7 mol/L for milk. The average recoveries were 99. 7%-101. 4% with RSDs of 2. 3%-3. 5%(n=5). The method is sensitive and repeatable, and can be applied to the field of residue analysis about penicillins G with low concentration levels.

Objective To explore the clinicopathological characteristics of hereditary ovarian cancer syndrome(HOCS). Methods From Jan. 2000 to Jan. 2007, among 580 cases of primary ovarian cancer, 42 cases(herediatary group),who had a positive family history of ovarian cancer and met the diagnostic criteria of HOCS, were analyzed retrospectively. One hundred cases without a family history of ovarian cancer were enrolled randomizely as control group (sporadic group). Results The incidence of HOCS was 7.2% (42/580). Forty-two cases associated tumors affected at least 2 successive generations in 31 families and affected 1 generation in 8 families. Eighty-seven percent (27/31)was from maternal lineage, while 13% (4/31)from paternal lineage. Earlier age of onset was significantly difference between two groups[(49±10) years vs. (55±10) years, P<0.05]. There were 90% belong to serous adenocarcinoma in the herediatary group, while 84% in the sporadic group. There was statistical difference in the proportion of mucinous adenocarcinoma (0 vs. 11%, P<0.05). The most common clinical manifestations were abdominal distention and anorexia (64% vs. 70%, P>0.05), International Federational of Gynecology Obstetrics(FIGO)stage Ⅲ (62% vs. 63%, P>0.05) between two groups. Fourteen cases (33%,14/42) were previously untreated in the herediatary group, while 40 cases (40%, 40/100) in the sporadic group. There were 15 cases (36%, 15/42) underwent secondary surgery and 15 cases (36%, 15/42) underwent third surgery or more in berediatary group, while 50 cases (50%, 50/100) and 27 cases(27%, 27/100) in the sporadic group. The mean number of ehemotberapy cycles received in two groups was 13.3 and 11.8 (P>0.05). The 3-year and 5-year survival rate in herediatary group were 73.6% and 54.9% respectively, compared with 47.4% and 21.2% (P<0.05) in sporadic group. Conclusion Hereditary ovarian cancer mostly from maternal lineage are featuring in early age of onset, serous adenocarcinoma, advanced stage (stage Ⅲ), and better prognosis after the comprehensive treated by cytoreductive surgery plus with chemotherapy.

Objective To investigate the susceptibility profile of clinical isolates in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University during 2015-2017. Methods Susceptibility test was carried out using Kirby-Bauer method or automated systems. Results were analyzed according to CLSI 2017 breakpoints. Results A total of 17 645 clinical isolates were isolated from January 2015 to December 2017, including 3 091(17.5％)gram positive and 14 554(82.5％)gram negative bacteria. Methicillinresistant S. aureus(MRSA)and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus(MRCNS)accounted for 50.7％ and 77.9％, respectively. No staphylococcal isolates were found resistant to vancomycin, teicoplanin or linezolid. E. faecalis strains showed much lower resistance rate to most drugs tested than E. faecium. Nine(0.8％)E. faecalis isolates were found resistant to vancomycin. A total of 227 strains of the non-meningitis S. pneumoniae were tested, 44.1％ of which were isolated from adults and 55.9％ from children. Most of the S. pneumoniae isolated from adults and children were susceptible to penicillin(88.0％ and 81.1％, respectively). E. coli showed the highest proportion in three years. ESBLs were produced in 53.3％ of E. coli and 28.5％ of Klebsiella spp. A total of 255 strains of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae(3.7％), 665 strains of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa(26.2％)and 900 strains of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(57.5％)were identified. The annual change of prevalence was insignificant. A total of 141 strains of extensively-drug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa(5.6％)and 458 strains of extensively-drug resistant A. baumannii(29.3％)were identified, showing decreasing prevalence from 2015 to 2017. Conclusions The bacterial resistance in this hospital is relatively stable in the past three years, but it is still necessary to strengthen hospital infection control and management, and maintain good practice in surveillance of bacterial resistance.
