Objective To design a microarray of ~60mer oligonucleotide for detection and sub-typing of human papillomavirus (HPV). Methods The type-specific oligonucleotide probes of 4 different types of HPV (6, 11, 16, 18) were designed by using biological software Arraydesigner 2.0, which analyzed the whole genome sequences of HPV and selected optimal probes with high specificity, identical length and similar melting temperature (Tm). These probes were synthesized and printed onto the surface of glass slides in order to prepare a low-density microarray. HPV samples were labeled with fluorescence dyes Cy3 using a method of restriction display PCR (RD-PCR). HPV plasmid DNA was restricted with Sau3AⅠ to produce multiple fragments which were ligated to adaptors subsequently and used as PCR template. PCR labeling was performed with the fluorescently labeled universal primer (Cy3-UP) whose sequence is designed according to the adaptor of the RD-PCR approaches. The labeled samples were then hybridized with the oligonucleotide microarray. Results Both single and multiple HPV DNA samples could be detected with oligonucleotides microarray, and the corresponding HPV subtypes were recognized as well. And no signals were detected in all the negative and blank control spots. Conclusion 60mer oligonucleotide microarray designed by appropriate bioinformatics software can be applied to HPV detection and genotyping on gene level.

Objective To study the changes of gene and protein expressions of key components of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in myocardium of simulated weightless rats. Method Tail-suspended rats were adopted as animal model of simulated weightlessness. RT-PCR and Western blot analysis were performed to examine mRNA and protein expressions in rat myocardium, respectively. Result After 1 week tail-suspension,no obvious changes in angiotensinogen (AGT), angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), 1a and 1b subtype of type 1 angiotensin Ⅱ receptor (AT 1aand AT 1b), key components of RAS in myocardium were observed. But after 4 weeks tail-suspension, the expressions of AGT mRNA and higher molecular weight band of AGT protein increased significantly (P
3.Progress in the study of liver ischemia reperfusion injury
International Journal of Surgery 2017;44(4):277-280
Liver ischemia reperfusion injury is a common pathophysiological process in hepatic surgery,which is the consequence of multiple mechanisms such as oxidative stress,inflammatory reaction,apoptosis,and autophagy and so on.However,the molecular mechanisms behind these processes have not been completely elucidated,the current treatment of liver I/R injury is merely supportive care,and thus new therapeutic strategies are needed.The recent studies indicate that the ischemic precondition and pharmacological precondition may protect the liver against hepatic ischemiareperfusion injury.It will be an important clinical significance of further studying its molecular mechanisms and protective strategies.

Objective To observe and compare the antiemetic effectiveness and adverse effects of magnetotherapy plus the 5 -hydroxytryptamine (5-HT3 ) receptor inhibitor granisetron hydrochloride with that of granisetron hydrochloride alone with chemotherapy patients. Methods Sixty-four patients were randomized to receive either granisetron hydrochloride alone ( control group: granisetron hydrochloride 3 mg intravenous infusion before chemotherapy, from the 1st day of chemotherapy until the day after the chemotherapy course was completed) or magnetotherapy plus granisetron hydrochloride ( treatment group: the same granisetron hydrochloride regimen plus rotatory magnetotherapy of 1 h/time every day after chemotherapy). The baseline characteristics of the two groups were similar. The patients' emesia was evaluated according to the WHO's criteria. The density of 5-HT, in serum was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA). Results In terms of acute vomiting, there was no significant difference between the two groups, but in terms of tardive vomiting, the effectiveness in the treatment group was significantly better than in the control group. The densities of S-HT, in serum in the treatment and the control group were (225.32±57.29 ) ng/ml vs (213.00±53.29 ) ng/ml before chemotherapy and (273.88±5.42) ng/ml vs ( 313.17±76.36 ) ng/ml after chemotherapy, a significant difference. The rates of adverse events were 36.36% and 48.39% respectively in the treatment group and control group, a difference which was not significant. Conclusions Magnetotherapy plus granisetron hydrochloride is more effective than granisetron hydrochloride alone, and the two therapies have a synergistic effect. Adverse events didn't rise in the treatment group.

Objective To summarize the experience of surgical management of postoperative intrahepatic duct stones and strictures with choledochoscope.Methods The clinical data of 1241 patients with intrahepatic duct stones and strictures who were admitted to the Shenzhen People's Hospital from January 2000 to December 2011 were retrospectively analyzed.All patients were divided into postoperative choledochoscopy group (652 patients were treated by choledochoscope through T-tube fistula) and conservative treatment group (589 patients were treated by cholangic and antibiotic drugs) according to treatment plan.The clinical data including stricture alleviation,incidence of complications and treatment efficacies of the 2 groups were compared using the chi-square test.Results In the postoperative choledochoscopy group,the intrahepatic duct stones of 630 patients were completely removed,with the removal rate of 96.63% (630/652),which was significandy higher than 76.23% (449/589) of the conservative treatment group (x2=113.407,P < 0.05).A total of 1237 intrahepatic duct strictures were detected in the postoperative choledochoscopy group,including 698 cases of membranous stricture (the length of strictured bile duct < 2 mm),529 cases of spool-shaped stricture (2 mm ≤ the length of strictured bile duct ≤5 mm),8 cases of long tube-shaped stricture (the length of strictured bile duct > 5 mm),2 cases of crackshaped stricture.The alleviation rate of the stricture was 99.35% (1229/1237).The conditions of 6 cases of long tube-shaped stricture and 2 cases of crack-shaped stricture were not alleviated.There were 986 cases of intrahepatic duct strictures in the conservative treatment group,and the stricture alleviation rate was 80.43% (793/986).There was a significant difference in the stricture alleviation rate between the 2 groups (x2=238.994,P < 0.05).Nine patients in the postoperative choledochoscopy group had severe complications.Five patients had intrahepatic duct hemorrhage with a volume of blood loss more than 1500 ml,and they were treated by balloon dilatation hemostasis.One patient with repeated intrahepatic duct bleeding received hepatectomy.Two patients with severe intrahepatic cholangitis received choledochoscopy.Two patients had incomplete formation of sinus and they received implantation of biliary stents under duodenoscope.Conclusion Standard surgical management with choledochoscope can effectively alleviate postoperative intrahepatic duct stones and strictures.

Objective To discuss the CT features and pathologic basis of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis. Methods Total 19 cases were confirmed by ELISA and IHA of antibody of echinococcosis. A part of them were confirmed by pathalogy. Results The main features of the disease were irregular,obscure contour and heterogeneous density with mainly hypodense in the liver. Almost of all accompanied with calcification. The calcification was showed some certainly signification. No contrast enhancement was observed within the lesions after administration of intravenous contrast medium. There were three type of this disease based on CT features including map type, halo type and pseudocystic type. Conclusion CT scanning has value of not only for diagnosis of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis but also useful to display each complications and metastasis.

Serum adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein (A-FABP) was raised in metabolic syndrome (MS)patients (n= 121) as compared with age-matched healthy subjects [n = 120, (14.7±4.8 vs 6.8 ±3. 0) μg/L,P<0.001]. It reached higher level in MS subjects with visceral obesity [(15.7±4.2 vs 12.6±5.1) μg/L, P<0.001]. Serum A-FABP concentration was positively correlated with body mass index, waist circumference, waist-tohip ratio, fasting insulin, homeostasis assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), fasting glucose, triglycerides,total cholesterol,and mean arterial blood pressure, whereas negatively correlated with HDL-C (r =-0. 448, P< 0.001).
