6.Anti-tumor activity and its mechanism of lycopene
Journal of International Oncology 2013;(4):264-267
Lycopene is an important natural carotenoid,and is widely found in human tissues and blood,with the prevention of many types of cancer,anti-aging effect.It can inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells of oral malignancy,and increasing of gap-junction communication between cells to prevent oral cancer,and also can inhibit the development of colorectal cancer by reducing the activity of matrix metalloproteinase.It plays the role of anti-metastasis through enhancing the expression of anti-metastatic gene nm23-H1.
7.Progression of microRNA in gastric cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2013;(5):359-362
Recently,many studies find that microRNA plays a key role in the development,diagnosis,treatment and prevention of gastric cancer.It is confirmed that miR-451 can be used as a useful biomarker for the screening of gastric cancer.Studies also show that miR-203 and miR-21 may become diagnostic markers of gastric cancer.MicroRNA can play the role of oncogenes,and also can play the role of tumor suppressor gene,such as miR-141 plays the role of tumor suppressor gene through inhibition of the positive fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 gene expression.
8.Detection of 16S rRNA methylase gene in gram-negative bacteria
Chinese Journal of Infection and Chemotherapy 2009;09(4):267-271
Objective To investigate the prevalence of 16S rRNA methylase genes, armA and rmtB, which mediate high level aminoglycoside resistance, in gram-negative bacteria isolated from 2 hospitals in Dalian and study the mechanism of aminoglycoside resistance.Methods A total of 134 amikacin-resistant clinical isolates of gram-negative bacteria were collected. Two 16S rRNA methylase genes, armA and rmtB, were identified by PCR-based assays. PCR products were extracted for DNA sequencing analysis. armA and rmtB gene mapping were conducted by plasmid extraction, conjugation and transformation. The MICs of amikacin, gentamicin and tobramycin were determined for the positive isolates, transconjugants and the resultant strain of transformation using agar dilution technique. Results Overall armA was identified in 21 strains of Acinetobacter baumannii, rmtB in 5 strains of Escherichia coli and 5 strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae. Plasmid extraction and conjugation experiments were only successful for rmtB-positive isolates. Transconjugant and DH5a (pMDarmA) exhibited high-level resistance to aminoglycosides.Conclusions The 16S rRNA methylase genes, armA and rmtB are identified in Dalian. armA gene is identified in A. baumannii. rmtB gene is located on the plasmid of E. coli and K. pneumoniae. armA and rmtB can induce high-level resistance to aminoglycosides.
