The effects of the cyclin E expression levels on chemotherapeutic sensitivity of breast cancer cell line were explored. After the cyclin E expression was knockdown in MDA-MB-435 by RNA interference, FACS analysis and SA-beta-gal staining were used to evaluate the response sensitivity of breast cancer cells to DNA damage drugs (adriamycin, etc.). Adriamycin could induce G1 arrest in cyclin E knockdown MDA-MB-435 breast cell line and increase the percentage of cell senescence in cyclin E knockdown MDA-MB-435 cells. It was suggested that cyclin E knockdown could increase the chemotherapeutic sensitivity of breast cancer cells to DNA damage drugs.

Objective To study the relationship between the aged retirees' group's body mass index(BMI)distribution characteristics and relative cardiovascular diseases risk tactors.Methods One thousand three hundred and forty-three retirees in health medical examination were tested for systolic pressure, diastolic pressure,serum triglyceride,total cholesterol and fasting blood glucose.Groups with different BMI and different genders were tested for their mortality.Results The detective rates of BMI insufficiency,normal,overweight and obesity were 6.18%,51.67%,35.52%and 6.63%respectively.There was no statistic significance between different genders.The prevalence rates of hypertension,hyperlipidemia and diabetes mellitus(DM)were 46.09%,46.91%and 7.45%respectively.It showed that the prevalence rates of male hypertension and hyperlipidemia were significantly above those of the female's(P<0.05).As the BMI increased,hypertention,hyperlipidemia and DM rates increased too,and obviously increased in overweight group compared to normal BMI group(P<0.05).The detective rate of cardiovascular disease increased correspondingly with the increase of BMI.Conclusion BMI increasing is the important vascular relative risk factor for the aged retriee.

BACKGROUND:Extracel ular vesicles (EVs) are a kind of subcel ular component produced by paracine mechanism including exosomes, microparticles and microvesicles, which have become hotspots in recent years. OBJECTIVE:To review the research status and progress of EVs, especial y in the studies about definition, secreting mechanism, isolation and identification, biological characteristics and functions in diseases as wel as in biomedical research. METHODS:The first author retrieved PubMed and CNKI databases for relative articles published from July 2006 to August 2016. The keywords were“extracel ular vesicles, exosome, microvesicle, microparticle”in English and Chinese, respectively.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 44 eligible literatures are enrol ed. Almost al cel s can secrete EVs, which contain a variety of metrocyte-derived bioactive molecules, such as lipids, proteins, mRNAs, microRNA, lncRNA, cicrRNA, and non-coding RNA. These bioactive molecules are encapsulated in EVs or binding with the membrane. EVs are described to be involved in inflammation, immunity, signal transduction, cel survival and apoptosis, angiogenesis, thrombogenesis, and autophagy, which are of great significance to the maintenance of homeostasis and disease progression. Special EVs may be used as new biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of many diseases and serve as novel tools in the fields of antitumor therapy, regenerative medicine, immunoregulation and vaccination and drug delivery. But the molecular mechanisms regulating the secretion of EVs and the specific pathways activated upon EVs interaction with the target cel are not ful y understood. Based on miRNA, lncRNA and circRNA are attracting researchers’ attention.

The spleno-and thyme-lymphocytes of mice were cultured in the media with various concentrations of zinc. The results showed that zinc acted as a weak mitogen and stimulating lymphocyte proliferation at 0.12-0.5? 10-4 mol/L. It also enhanced the lymphocyte proliferation to Con A and LPS. The optimal concentration was 0.12?10-4mol/L. It enhanced the MLR of spleno-lym-phocyte and increased the responsive ability of thymocyte to IL-1. Zinc was poisonous to cells at concentrations higher than 1.0 ?10-4mol/L.

Objective To investigate the influence of LNG-IUS placement on endometrial thickness, recurrence rate and complications of patients with endometrial polyps and moderate anemia after TCRP. Methods 140 patients with endometrial polyps and moderate anemia were chosen from January 2014 to January 2016 and randomly divided into control group (70 patients) with TCRP used alone and observation group (70 patients) with LNG-IUS placement after TCRP; the endometrial thickness, hemoglobin levels and PBAC score before and after treatment, the recurrence rate and the complication incidence of both groups were compared. Results The endometrial thickness after treatment of observation group were significantly less than control group before the treatment (P < 0.05). The hemoglobin levels and PBAC score after treatment of observation group were significantly better than control group before the treatment (P < 0.05). The recurrence rate of observation group were significantly lower than control group (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the complication incidence between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion LNG-IUS placement in treatment of patients with endometrial polyps and moderate anemia after TCRP can efficiently reduce the endometrial thickness, decrease the uterine bleeding amount, prevent the long-term recurrence and not increase the complications incidence.

Objective: To investigate the risk factors of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) complicated by invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA), so as to provide insights into prevention of IPA among COPD patients. Methods: The COPD patients complicated by IPA hospitalized in Yiwu Central Hospital from 2017 to 2021 were recruited as the case group, while COPD patients without IPA during the same study period served as controls. Participants' general information, laboratory tests, comorbidities and treatments were collected. The risk factors of COPD complicated by IPA were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: There were 30 participants in the case group and 30 in the control group, including 22 men and 8 women in each group and with a mean age of (75.00±10.00) and (74.00±10.00) years, respectively. There were 27 (90.00%) and 19 (63.33%) cases with stage 3 and higher COPD in the case and control groups, and the mean duration of hospital stay in the past one year was (12.89±4.88) and (8.59±3.85) days in the case and control groups, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified long duration of hospital stay in the past one year (OR=1.230, 95%CI: 1.011-1.498), stage 3 and higher COPD (OR=18.637, 95%CI: 1.415-245.402) as risk factors of COPD complicated by IPA. Conclusions Duration of hospital stay in the past one year and severity of COPD are risk factors for COPD complicated by IPA.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the expression and clinical significance of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), the mutations of gene EGFR, KRAS and BRAF in sinonasal intestinal-type adenocarcinomas. METHODS We investigated the EGFR protein expression by immunohistochemistry method with antibodies targeting the extracellular domain, the intracellular domain, and the phosphorylated isoform in a series of 11sinonasal intestinal-type adenocarcinomas tissues. EGFR, KRAS, and BRAF mutational status were detected by DNA direct sequencing and Melt curve method.RESULTS The findings were analyzed with respect to clinical data, histological typing, and outcome of the patients. EGFR was expressed in 72.7% tumors with a focal distribution with both extracellular domain and intracellular domain, which showed a significantly correlation. p-EGFR was expressed in 9.1% tumors. 9.1% tumors had the mutation of EGFR gene in exon 19, 9.1% tumors had the mutation in exon 2 and exon 15 of gene KRAS and BRAF respectively. There was no association between these molecular features and the survival period of the patients. CONCLUSION The current study revealed various EGFR expression patterns in sinonasal intestinal-type adenocarcinomas, that indicated the tumor heterogeneity. Sinonasal intestinal-type adenocarcinomas share common alterations of the EGFR pathway as the mutation of EGFR, KRAS and BRAF genes, but with a lower frequency.
