Chinese Journal of Current Advances in General Surgery 1999;0(02):-
Objectives:To study the relationship between the expression of PS2 protein and estrogen receptor(ER) and progesterone receptor(PR) ,c-erbB2 status and prognosis in breast cancer.Methods:PS2 protein expressions in 52 cases of breast cancer were detected by immunohistochemical method.Results:The positive rate of PS2 protein was 59.6 %(31/52) in 52 patients.There was significant correlation between PS2 protein and menopausal status,ER status,PR status respectively.Tumor size,clinical stage and lymph node status were not significantly related with the expression of PS2 protein.Patients with PS2 protein positive expression had higher 5-year-survival rate than those with PS2 protein negative expression.Conclusion:PS2 protein appears to be an independent and valid prognostic factor of breast cancer,and detection of PS2 protein expression was useful for treatment of breast cancer.

Objective To study the efficacy of complement depletion with CVF in preventing a-cute rejection after heart allotransplantation in inbred strain rats. Methods Inbred male Lewis rats were used as recipients and Brown-Norway rats as donors, and the heterotopic heart transplantation model was established. The allografts were divided into 2 groups (n=8 in each group). After infusing low-dose CVF 20?g/kg to the CVF-treated group, cardiac allograft survival time was observed on 4 rats of each group. The remaining 4 rats in each group were killed respectively at day 1,3,5 and 6, the pathological grade for acute rejection, the complement activity in serum, the deposition of C3 on tissue, and the extent of infiltration by CD3+ T cells were compared. Results The mean survival time of heart allograft was (11. 69?0. 72) days and (6. 65?0. 35) days in CVF-treated group and control group respectively (P

The quality of traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) has been mainly evaluated based on chemical ingredients, yet recently more attentions have been paid on biological ingredients, especially for pill-based preparations. It is a key approach to establish a fast, accurate and systematic method of biological ingredient analysis for realization of modernization, industrialization and internationalization of TCMs. The biological ingredient analysis of TCM preparations could be abstracted as the identification of multiple species from a biological mixture. The metagenomic approach based on high-throughput-sequencing (HTS) and big-data-mining has been considered as one of the most effective methods for multiple species analysis of a biological mixture, which would also be helpful for the analysis of biological ingredients in TCMs. Simultaneous identification of diverse species, including the prescribed species, adulterants, toxic species, protected species and even the biological impurities introduced through production process, could be achieved by selecting appropriate DNA biomarkers, as well as applying large-scale sequence comparison and data mining. By this approach, it is prospective to offer an evaluation basis for the effectiveness, safety and legality of TCM preparations.

Objective To analyze the β-lactamases-producing Escherichia coli which were isolated from hospital specimens from Jun 2012 to Dec 2014,and provide a more accurate evidence to guide drug-selecting for antibacterial use.Methods An-alyzed 1 587 E.coli from patient sample selected between Jun 2012~Dec 2014 using the microbial analysis system manufac-tured by ZHUHAI DL BIOTECH CO.LTD,A phenotypic test was also conducted to test ESBLs.Results 1 587 stains of E-.coli were isolated,which counted for 23.9% of the specimens;901 stains (56.8%)out of total 1 587 stains appeared to be ESBLs-producing E.coli,and others were non-ESBLs-producing E.coli.The 1 587 Escherichia coli mainly came from De-partment of Urology (408,weight 25.7%),Department of Endocrinology (271,weight 17.1%),Department of Respiration (249,weight 15.7%).Rine specimen contributed 609 stains (47.3%),411 E.coli stains (31.9%)were discovered in spu-tum samples,and 83 stains (6.5%)showed in blood samples.The resistance to imipenem were discovered in the analysis. The rates of resistance to penicillins,cephalosporins were over 90.0%,the rates of resistance to Levofloxacin,ciprofloxacin were above 70.0%,and resistance rates to amoxicillin-clavulanic acid,Ticarcillin-clavulanic acid,piperacillin/tazobactam, amikacin were lower than 7.7%.Conclusion The drug-resistance of the E.coli were increasing over the past three years. There was a significant portion of MDR and PDR present in the trend.Thus,the reinforcement of the drug-resistance survey and testing have a far-reaching meaning to promote rational drug selecting.

Objective To research the expression of mitofusin-2 (mfn2) and tumor metastasis suppressor genes (nm23)in bladder cancer cells and its correlation with clinical pathological feature. Methods Immunohistochemistry was used to measure the expression of mfn2 and nm23.Sixty-five cases of bladder cancer were sampled,which include fif-ty cases of male and fifteen cases of female. TNM stage:Forty-seven cases were in stage I;Ten cases were in stage II; Five cases were in stageⅢ; Three cases were in stageⅣ. Other fifteen cases were sampled from normal bladder or benign tumor of bladder as control . All cases were collected from department of pathology,affiliated Hospital of hebei union university. Results The positive expression rate of mfn2 in bladder cancer tissues was significantly higher than those in normal blad-der tissues and benign tumor of bladder(χ2=32.528,P<0.05);The positive expression rate of nm23 in bladder cancer tis-sues was significantly lower than those in normal bladder tissues and benign tumor of bladder (χ2=19.719,P<0.05);the high expression level of mfn2 in bladder cancer was associated with tumor differentiation and TNM stage(P<0.05),but not corre-lated with age,sex,lymph node metastasis and clinical grade. The low level of nm23 was associated with TNM stage,clinical grade and LN metastasis. Conclusion The positive expression rate of mfn2 was increased in bladder cancer. It indicated that there was a close relationship between mfn2 and the occurrence and development of bladder cancer;The expression rate of nm23 was decreased in bladder cancer,it may be a predictor for metastasis and prognosis of bladder cancer.
