1.Effect of 5-Aza-CdR on proliferation and PRDM1α gene expression in Burkitt ' s lymphoma cell line NAMALWA
Journal of Leukemia & Lymphoma 2012;21(10):607-610
Objective To explore the effect of DNA methylation inhibitor 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-Aza-CdR) on proliferation and tumor suppressor gene PRDM1α expression in Burkitt's lymphoma cell line NAMALWA. Methods MTT was used to study the impact of DNA methylation inhibitor on proliferation in NAMALWA cells,and comparative real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RQ-PCR) with SYBR Green assay was used to detect PRDM1α gene expression. Results MTT results showed that 5-AzaCdR inhibited proliferation of NAMALWA cells in a dose-dependent manner.After treated with 5-Aza-CdR for 72 h at 0.01,0.0625,0.1,0.125,0.25,0.5,1,2 and 4 μmol/L,the inhibition rates were 21.93 %,39.23 %,47.69 %,50.37 %,53.54 %,57.72 %,62.31%,65.68 %,67.87 %,respectively,and the differences of absorbance among the groups were also statistically significant (all P< 0.01). Meanwhile, 5-Aza-CdR could induce the re-expression of PRDM1α, and △Ct of 0.5, 1, 2 μmol/L groups showed significant differences compared with control group (all P < 0.05). Conclusion DNA methylation inhibitor 5-Aza-CdR can significantly inhibit the proliferation of Burkitt' s lymphoma cell line NAM ALWA,and the possible mechanism of this inhibition may be induction of demethylation and re-expression of PRDM 1α.
2.Correlation of the Characteristics of SCL-90 and the Professional Ennui of Teachers in University
Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2006;12(7):639-640
ObjectiveTo analyzes the influence of psychological factors on the rehabilitation of the professional ennui (PE) of teachers in Institutions of Higher Learning (TIHL).MethodsMaslach Burnout Inventory-ES and the Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90) were used to investigate the subjects of TIHL. ResultsThe scores of PE showed distinct positive correlation with every factor of SCL-90 (P<0.01). ConclusionPE of TIHL is correlative with SCL-90, which seems that improvement of psychology may improve the PE of TIHL.
6.How to carry out the translational medicine research effectively in gastrointestinal tumors.
Chinese Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery 2013;16(1):1-3
As a new concept, the definition of translational medicine remains obscure. The translational medicine connects the bench to bedside, and its importance would be more remarkable. The development of gastrointestinal surgery reflects the idea of translational medicine. To carry out the translational study, the gastrointestinal surgeon must learn how to find subjects from clinical problems, how to collect complete information and tissues, how to collect complete information and tissues, how to collaborate with others from different fields and how to utilize all kinds of resources. By translational studies, gastrointestinal surgeons may further improve the survival of patients with gastrointestinal tumor.

[Objective]To evaluate the biomechanical features of Ni-Ti shape memory alloy stemless femoral prosthesis.[Method]Using CT(computer tomography) scanning photographs of adult femur,three-dimensional model of the femur was built by CAD(computer aided design) software.Based on the the structure of femoral model,shape memory alloy stemless femoral prosthesis was designed.Three-dimensional finite element model was created for the normal femur,Ni-Ti shape memory alloy stemless femoral prosthesis,and traditional stemmed hip prosthesis.Under static loads and walking loads,the Von Mises stress distributions of each model were analyzed and compared.[Result]The stress distribution of shape memory alloy stemless femoral prosthesis was not obviously different from normal femur,stemless femoral prosthesis's proximal femoral stress was close to that of normal femoral model but significantly higher than traditional stemmed hip prosthesis.Von Mises stress of memory alloy claws was distributed evenly,and the Max was only 13.23Mpa,there was no stress concentration.[Conclusion](1) Ni-Ti shape memory alloy stemless femoral prosthesis has great biomechanical properties,may reduce the stress-shieding effect of the proximal femur.The fixed method that use memory alloy claws can make prosthesis fixed firmly to the bone and reduce stress concentration.
