OBJECTIVE To invest igate the correlation between fractional exhaled nitric oxide(FeNO) and lung function in artemisia argyi allergy patients. Whether the course of disease and rhinitis score are correlated with FeNO and lung function. METHODS A total of 88 patients with mugwort pollen allergy, who visited the hospital between August and September 2017 and August and September 2018, the results of their FeNO and Pulmonary ventilation function, were included in this study. RESULTS Compared with patients with a duration of 9 years or more, FeNO and FEV1％ of patients with a duration of 5 years were significantly different(P =0.004, P =0.032), and FeNO increased with the extension of the duration, while FEV1％ decreased gradually. FeNO was negatively correlated with FEF25％-75％pred and FEV1％, while there was no correlation with FEV1％pred. Rhinitis score was positively correlated with FeNO. There was no correlation with FEV1％pred, FEV1％, FEF25％-75％pred. CONCLUSION With the development of mugwort pollen allergy, the probability of airflow limitation is also increased. To some extent, FeNO can predict the changes of airway function early, and can be used as a monitoring indicator for asthma prediction.FeNO value can reflect the degree of inflammation of the body, and can be used in the auxiliary diagnosis of the severity of allergic rhinitis patients.

OBJECTIVETo provide a new material for producing the Rhodiolasachalinensis products, the effect of methyl jasmonate (MeJA) on callus biomass and effective compound accumulation of Rhodiolasachalinensis was studied.

METHODThe calluses-cultured in 3 L-air lift balloon type bioreactor were treated with MeJA after 20 d of bioreactor culture and the effect of MeJA concentration and treatment days on callus biomass, salidroside or polysaccharide accumulation and superoxide dismutase (SOD) and peroxidase (POD) activities were investigated.

RESULTThe callus biomass was not significantly different after MeJA treatment (125) for 0-6 d but obviously decreased after 6 d treatment. The maximum salidroside or polysaccharide contents and SOD or POD activities were found after 4 d treatment of MeJA. MeJA concentration significantly affected callus biomass and effective compound accumulation, biomass decreased at MeJA concentrations higher than 125 μmol x L(-1). However, the effective compound contents were determined at higher MeJA concentration, and the highest salidroside and polysaccharide accumulation was found at 225 and 275 μmol x L(-1) MeJA, respectively and the maximum SOD and POD activities was found at 225 μmol x L(-1) MeJA. The effective compound contents in callus were compared with field-grown plants. Salidroside contents in calluses were 1.1-fold and 2. 4-fold more than in plant roots and stem or leave, respectively. Polysaccharide content in calluses were 3. 6-fold and 8.0-fold more than in plant roots and stem or leave, respectively.

CONCLUSIONSalidorside and polysaccharide in Rhodiolasachalinensiscalluses improved by MeJA treatment, 225 μmol x L(-1) MeJA and 4 d treatment were optimal. The effective compound contents in callus were obviously higher than in field-grown plants. Therefore, bioreactor culture is efficient for obtaining mass effective compounds of Rhodiolasachalinensis by culturing calluses. This method could provide an alternative material source for production of Rhodiolasachalinensis products.

OBJECTIVEThis review examines the evidence that: Diabetes is a state of DNA damage; pathophysiological factors in diabetes can cause DNA damage; DNA damage can cause mutations; and DNA mutation is linked to carcinogenesis.

DATA SOURCESWe retrieved information from the PubMed database up to January, 2014, using various search terms and their combinations including DNA damage, diabetes, cancer, high glucose, hyperglycemia, free fatty acids, palmitic acid, advanced glycation end products, mutation and carcinogenesis.

STUDY SELECTIONWe included data from peer-reviewed journals and a textbook printed in English on relationships between DNA damage and diabetes as well as pathophysiological factors in diabetes. Publications on relationships among DNA damage, mutagenesis, and carcinogenesis, were also reviewed. We organized this information into a conceptual framework to explain the possible causal relationship between DNA damage and carcinogenesis in diabetes.

RESULTSThere are a large amount of data supporting the view that DNA mutation is a typical feature in carcinogenesis. Patients with type 2 diabetes have increased production of reactive oxygen species, reduced levels of antioxidant capacity, and increased levels of DNA damage. The pathophysiological factors and metabolic milieu in diabetes can cause DNA damage such as DNA strand break and base modification (i.e., oxidation). Emerging experimental data suggest that signal pathways (i.e., Akt/tuberin) link diabetes to DNA damage. This collective evidence indicates that diabetes is a pathophysiological state of oxidative stress and DNA damage which can lead to various types of mutation to cause aberration in cells and thereby increased cancer risk.

CONCLUSIONSThis review highlights the interrelationships amongst diabetes, DNA damage, DNA mutation and carcinogenesis, which suggests that DNA damage can be a biological link between diabetes and cancer.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the expression and relationship of p27(kip1) and its related molecules Jab1 and CRM1 during proliferation of lymphoma cells U937.

METHODSU937 cells were treated with serum starvation and release, and the effects of these treatments on the cell growth was tested with cell number counting. The expression and localization of p27(kip1), Jab1 and CRM1 in U937 cells were detected by Western blot, double immunolabelling and laser scanning confocal microscopy.

RESULTSThe growth of U937 cells was blocked by serum starvation. The total protein of p27(kip1) was increased while Ser10-phosphorylated p27(kip1) -related molecules Jab1 and CRM1 were decreased. Meanwhile, the location of p27(kip1) was changed from cytoplasm into nuclei. After serum release, the location of p27(kip1) expression reappeared in the cytoplasm again.

CONCLUSIONDuring the proliferation process of lymphoma U937 cells, Jab1 and CRM1 may influence the location and expression of p27kip1, and may participate in regulation of growth of NHL cells.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze a patient with infertility and a fragile site found at 16q22 by using cytogenetic methods. METHODS: Peripheral blood sample was taken from the patient and subjected to chromosomal karyotyping and single nucleotide polymorphism microarray (SNP-array) analysis. RESULTS: The patient was found to be a mosaicism for a fragile site at 16q22, which has a variable morphology and cannot be induced by folic acid treatment. No abnormality was found by SNP-array analysis. CONCLUSION A rare fragile site, which can be induced without folic acid treatment, has been identified at 16q22. The strategy of assisted reproduction for such individuals is yet to be explored.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the expression and correlation of Skp2 and p27kipl in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

METHODSThe expression of Skp2, p27(kip1) and Ki-67 (the proliferation index)were detected in sections of 92 cases of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) and 14 cases of reactive lymph nodes by immunohistochemistry and histopathology. The expression of Skp2 and p27(kip1) in 4 NHL cell lines were detected by Western blot.

RESULTSThe expression of Skp2 in NHL cases were significantly higher than that in reactive lymph nodes (except the germinal centers), positively correlated with proliferation activity, and an increasing tumor aggressiveness was associated with the increased expression of Skp2. The expression of p27(kip1) protein in NHL cases were significantly lower than that in reactive lymph nodes (except the germinal centers), negatively correlated with proliferation activity, and an increasing tumor aggressiveness was associated with decreased expression of p27(kip1). The statistical analysis indicated that there was no obvious correlation between Skp2 and p27(kip1) expression in NHL tissues.

CONCLUSIONThe higher expression of Skp2 and lower expression of p27(kip1) in NHL tissues may play a role in the tumorigenesis and development of NHL.
