Objective To investigate the relationship between growth inhibiting effect of arsenic trioxide(As_2O_3) and phosphorylation of P27kip threonine residue 187(P27T187) in human hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) cell line SMMC-7721.Methods SMMC-7721 were treated for 72 h with 2 ?mol/L As_2O_3.The cell growth inhibition was detected by cell counting and the cell cycle was detected by flow cytometry(FCM).The expression and localization of P27,T187 phosphorylated P27(p-P27T187) were detected by Subcellular Fractionation,Western blot and immunoflurescence.Results As_2O_3 significantly inhibited the proliferation of SMMC-7721 cell and cell cycle was arrested in G2/M.A significant decrease in p-P27T187 expression and a reciprocal increase in P27 expression were found in 2 ?mol/L As_2O_3-treated SMMC-7721 cell.Meanwhile,As_2O_3 decreased the protein levels of Cdk2 and cyclinE.The location of P27 was transferred from cytoplasm to nuclei and the expression of p-P27T187 was decreased in nuclei.Conclusion As_2O_3 inhibits the phosphorylation of P27T187,thereby promoting P27 accumu-lation in SMMC-7721 cell nuclei,inducing cel1 cycle arrest and growth inhibition.

To explore the relationship between meteorological factors and incidences of fever, thrombocytopenia and leukopenia syndrome (FTLS), incidence data of FTLS in Xinyang City were collected and described. The relationship between FTLS and monthly meteorological factors such as average atmospheric pressure, average temperature, average relative humidity, average wind speed and precipitation was analyzed with simple correlation and multi-stepwise linear regression. The results showed that there was a significant negative correlation between incidence of FTLS and monthly average atmospheric pressure (P<0.01), and there were significant positive correlations between monthly average temperature, monthly average relative humidity, monthly precipitation and incidence of FTLS (P<0.05). The multi-stepwise regression showed that the regression equation was Y (monthly cases) =-12.70 + 0.28X2 (monthly average temperature), and the coefficient of determination was 0.76. The incidences of FTLS are correlated with temperature.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of MRP3 in pancreatic cancer and different tumor cells. Methods MRP3 expression was detected in 30 cases of pancreatic cancer tissues and the adjacent tissues through immunohistochemical method. RT-PCR was used to detect MRP3 mRNA in 7 tumor cell lines and human embryo kidney cell lines 293T. Monoclonal antibody against MRP3 was employed to detect MRP3 protein expression through flow cytometry. Results There was significant difference for MRP3 expression in nucleus between the pancreatic cancer and normal tissues beside the cancer ( P= 0.003 ) while no significant difference was found in cytoplasm (P = 0. 472). MRP3 mRNA expression was found in 3 pancreatic carcinoma cell lines. The positive expression rate of MRP3 protein was relatively high in BxPC-3 and AsPC-1 cells (68. 5% and 33.6% respectively) while it was only 5.4% in PNAC-1. Conclusions The difference of MRP3 expression in pancreatic cancer and normal tissues lies mainly in nucleus. BxPC-3 may serve as cellular models for in vitro studies on multidrug resistance of pancreatic carcinoma.

Objective To investigate the significance of androgen and estrogen receptor expression levels on aneurysm walls.Methods From November 2007 to June 2016,32 patients received craniotomy for clipping intracranial aneurysms in the West China Hospital,Sichuan University were enrolled prospectively.Nineteen intracranial aneurysm walls and 26 superficial temporal artery branches were obtained (a total of 45 qualified specimens).Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the superficial temporal artery branches and smooth muscle layer of intracranial aneurysm wall and the expression levels of estrogen receptor-α,β and androgen receptors.Image Pro Plus 6.0 software was used to analyze and detect the integral optical density values of the positive cell expression levels.The χ2 test and rank-sum test were used for statistical analysis.Results The median (M) and interquartile range (P25,P75) of the expression levels of estrogen receptor-α,β of the intracranial aneurysm walls were 3 049 (2 112,5 554) and 4 364 (2 314,5 667) respectively.They were lower than 6 544 (3 507,10 103) and 6 972 (5 694,10 024) of the superficial temporal artery branches.The expression level of androgen receptor of aneurysm wall was 3 299 (1 375,4 895),it was higher than 1 130 (794,1 922) of the superficial temporal artery branches.There was significant difference between the two groups (all P<0.05).Conclusion The decreased expression levels of estrogen receptor-α,β and the increased expression level of androgen receptor in the cerebrovascular walls may promote the progress of intracranial aneurysms,however,the specific mechanism needs further study.

Objective:To investigate the etiological characteristics and drug resistance of non-typhoid Salmonella isolated from stool samples of children under 5 years old with diarrhea in Henan Province. Methods:Intestinal bacteria were isolated from fecal samples of 4 250 diarrhea children under five years old in five monitoring sites in Henan Province from 2015 to 2018. Serotypes and drug sensitivity of Salmonella strains were analyzed. The annual change in drug resistance was analyzed by Chi-square test and all data were analyzed retrospectively. Results:The detection rate of non-typhoid Salmonella in fecal samples was 8.73% (371/4 250). The highest detection rate was in the 0-1 age group (51.75%) and the peak season for Salmonella infection was from May to October. The most common serotype was Salmonella enteritidis (36.93%), followed by 4, 5, 12: i: - Salmonella (14.82%) and Salmonella typhimurium (14.02%). The non-typhoid Salmonella isolates were resistant to ampicillin and sulfamethoxazole with drug resistance rates of more than 80%, but more sensitive to ceftazidime, cefepime and cefoxitin. There were significant differences in drug resistance to cefepime, levofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, amikacin, doxycycline, chloramphenicol and compound neoforman among the strains isolated in different years ( P<0.05). Multidrug-resistant strains accounted for 86.52%. Conclusions:There was diversity in the serotypes of non-typhoid Salmonella in diarrheal children under five years old in Henan Province. The predominant serotype was Salmonella enteritidis. Drug resistance to common antibiotics was detected in the isolates, and most of them were multidrug-resistant.

Objective To explore the characteristics regarding temporal,spatial and spatiotemporal distribution on severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) in Henan province.Methods Surveillance data related to SFTS was collected in Henan province,from year 2014 to 2016.Descriptive method was used to analyze the distribution of SFTS.1.7.0 software related to the Public health geographic information system (PHGIS),was applied to draw the spatial distribution map of SFTS.Chi-square test was used to compare the different incidence rates.Results A total of 2 781 SFTS cases,including 34 deaths,were reported in Henan province from 2014 to 2016,with an average annual fatality rate as 1.22%.There were statistically significant differences for the incidence rates of SFTS between different years (P<0.01).Cases were mainly concentrated from April to October,which accounted for 96.66% of the total number,with the incidence peak seen in May.Incidence rates of SFTS in spring,summer,autumn were higher than that in winter.The cases were scattering around in 26 counties of 8 cities.Xinyang city reported 2 714 cases,accounting for 97.59% of the total number of cases in the province.The average annual incidence rate in Xinyang city was 17.22 per 100 000,much higher than that for the whole Henan province (0.98 per 100 000),with statistically significant difference (P<0.01).Six counties reported having death cases,that accounted for 23.08% of the total number of counties,reported to have death cases.Two kinds of incidence patterns of SFTS were noticed in Henan province,with aggregation in some local regions or sporadic in individual counties.The number of counties with reporting cases increased annually.The epidemic area was expanding and gradually spreading from south to north areas of the province.Conclusions SFTS was characterized with both temporal and spatial clusters in Henan province.Effective prevention and control measures should be made in accordance with the spatiotemporal distribution and the trend on SFTS.
