Specific activation of toll-Like Receptor 9 (TLR9) by ligand CpG DNA/ODN can initiate downstream signaling.The activation of TLR9 signaling is regulated by Granulin,high-mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) and soluble TLR9.Interestingly,TLR9 is no longer only presented in the immune cells,but also expressed in many kinds of tumor cells.TLR9 is involved inmaintaining and promoting the malignant biological behaviors of tumor cells.Elucidation of the function of TLR9 inherent signaling pathways in the tumor cells will provide a novel idea for oncotherapy.

Objective To understand the current status of advanced schistosomiasis patients, so as to provide the reference for improving the medical care of them in Shanggao County. Methods The data of advanced patients in Shanggao County were collected from the Information Management System for the Advanced Schistosomiasis Chemotherapy and Assistance in Jiangxi Province and a field survey including the epidemiological investigation physical examinations and B ultrasound examinations was performed in 2014. All the data were analyzed statistically and compared with those in 2010. Results Among the 128 ad?vanced schistosomiasis patients the male female ratio was 2.46 1 the average age was 68.02±6.19 years and the patients old?er than 65 years contributed to 64.84%for the all. The proportions of clinically types of ascites splenomegaly multiple granulo?ma in the colon dwarf general and haemorrhage were 57.81% 12.50% 2.34% 0 26.57% and 0.78% respectively. The ultrasound examinations revealed the average diameter of the main trunk of portal vein was 12.70 ± 1.91mm in 2014 which was significantly broader than that of 12.05 ± 0.34mm in 2010 P < 0.01 . Conclusions The advanced schistosomiasis patents in Shanggao County decreases with years and shows an aging trend. Some advanced schistosomiasis patients are worse therefore the chemotherapy and salvation work still should be strengthened.

In eukaryotes,the cell(s) material exchange has long existed in its proliferation and apoptosis,while the exchange of nucleus and cytoplasm only through the shuttle movement of the nuclear pore complex (NPC). NPC in the nuclear membrane,achieves the protein,RNA and other substances's transport task through the shuttle movement between nucleus and cytoplasm of eukaryotes.Specific nuclear pore proteins regulate specific transport path,and because of this,the transport and regulation through the NPC is highly selective and coordination,so the NPC play an important role in gene expression,cell signaling networks and maintain the environment.Some of them will change the structure properties of membrane,affecting mitosis,and some can be combined with the kinase leading to abnormal biochemical reactions,or combined with other biological factors in angiogenesis,cell migration or apoptosis of cells leading to abnormal changes,and leading to tumorigenesis.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of voice changes by multi-dimensional acoustic analysis in patients who underwent thyroid gland lobectomy without laryngeal nerve injury.Methods To observe vocal cord movement and evaluate voice quality,32 patients with unilateral thyroid adenoma received the examinations of fiberlaryngscopy and Multi-Dimensional Voice Program before and after operation,respectively.Forty subjects with normal voice were used as cantrol group.Results Fiberlaryngscopy examinations were normal in all patients before and after surgery.In thyroid group,the preoperative acoustic parameters in male patients showed no significant difference(P＞0.05) compared with the control group.There was no significant difference between preoperative and postoperative acoustic parameters(P＞0.05).While the postoperative acoustic parameters of female patients was significantly lower than those of preoperative and in control group(P＜0.05).There was significant improvement 3 months after the operation compared with that of preoperative group(P＜0.05).Fhi of 3 months after operation was still lower than those of preoperation and in control group in male and female patients that continues to be significant after 3 months.Conclusion Voice changes may occur after unilateral thyroid gland lobectomy without any laryngeal nerve injury,and there is little voice change in male patients,while in female patients,voice improvement is observed after operation.Fhi still remaines lower level for a certain of time.

Objective To recognize the possibility of Y fragment deletion of Amelogenin gene intuitively and simply according to the genotyping graphs.Methods By calculating the ratio of total peak height of genotyping graphs, the statistics of equilibrium distribution between Amelogenin and D3S1358loci,Amelo-genin X-gene and Amelogenin Y-gene, and different alleles of D3S1358loci from 1968 individuals was analyzed after amplified by PowerPlex? 21 detection kit.Results Sum of peak height of Amelogenin X allele was not less than 60% that of D3S1358loci alleles in 90.8% female samples, and sum of peak height of Amelogenin X allele was not higher than 70% that of D3S1358loci alleles in 94.9% male samples.Conclusion The result of genotyping after amplified by PowerPlex? 21 detection kit shows that the possibility of Y fragment deletion should be considered when only Amelogenin X-gene of Amelo-geninis detected and the peak height of AmelogeninX-gene is not higher than 70% of the total peak height of D3S1358loci.

Objective To investigate the reliability of the integrated method for kinetic assay of substrate in the presence of product inhibition using glutathione-S-transferase(GST) as model.Methods Purified GST from pig liver was used to catalyze the conjugation of reduced glutathione(GSH) to 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene(CDNB)(final concentration at 1.0mmol/L),and reaction curve was monitored by product absorbance at 340nm.Maximal product absorbance after the completion of reaction was predicted by the integrated method.Results The optimization of product inhibition constant conferred to resistance to the variation of residual substrate concentration on the estimation of maximal product absorbance.This integrated method for kinetic substrate assay was also resistant to common source of errors.The recovery for extra GSH in rat liver homogenate was above 98% with linear response ranged from 2.0?mol/L to 90 ?mol/L.The concentration of GSH in rat liver was consistent to previous reports.Conclusion The integrated method is valid for kinetic assay of substrate when there is product inhibition,and it exhibits some universality as a kinetic method for enzymatic analysis with obvious advantages.
