Objective:To investigate the effect of blocking BRCAA1 gene expression with siRNA on the proliferation of tumor cell line MCF-7 and Rb gene expression.Methods:RNAi was employed to specifically knock down BRCAA1 expression.MCF-7 cells were transfected with complexes constructed with lipids and chemically synthesized Pre-designed anti-BRCAA1 siRNAs.The total RNA was isolated and reversely transcribed after 48 h.The expressions of BRCAA1 and Rb mRNA were determined by Real-Time PCR.Results:Compared with negative control,transfected MCF-7 cells had a 42.3% decrease in expression of BRCAA1 mRNA and an 11.1% increase in Rb mRNA expression.The inhibitory rate of MCF-7 cells proliferation was(81.6?6.1)%.Conclusion:There may be some antagonistic effect between BRCAA1 gene and Rb gene in proliferation of tumor cells,which provides a potential target for anti-tumor gene therapy.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the tendency of incidence in coal workers' pneumoconiosis( CWP) in different time of dust exposure and different types of work in a mining enterprise in Huaibei City. METHODS: A total of 12 152 dust exposed workers who worked from 1970 to 2014 in a mining enterprise in Huaibei City were chosen as study subjects by judgment sampling method. They were divided into 2 cohorts were formed according to initial year of dust exposure( 1970-,1980-),and 4 group according to the type of work( tunneling,mining,combining and helping). Life table method was adopted to calculate cumulative life-incidence of CWP in each cohort. RESULTS: Among 12 152 workers,there were 594 of them diagnosed as CWP patients with a 4. 89% of incidence. During the same 34-year-observation period,the cumulative CWP incidence of 1970-cohort was higher than that of the 1980 s( 8. 03% vs 5. 45%,P < 0. 01). The cumulative CWP incidence of tunneling,mining,combining and helping workers were 69. 33%,40. 53%,36. 66% and 19. 70% by 2014,respectively. The cumulative incidence of CWP in tunneling group started to rise from the 14-year-observation window,mining's from 16-year-observation window,combining and helping workers from 18-year-observation window. Among the workers in 1970-cohort at the 34-year-observation window,the CWP cumulative incidence in mining group was the highest( 33. 83%,P < 0. 004),and combining's was the lowest( 2. 28%,P < 0. 004). Among the workers in 1970-cohort at the 44-year-observation window,the CWP cumulative incidence in tunneling group was the highest( 66. 66%,P < 0. 004),and helping's was the lowest( 27. 24%,P < 0. 004). Among the workers in 1980-cohort at the 34-year-observation window,the CWP cumulative incidence in tunneling group was the highest( 29. 87%,P < 0. 004). CONCLUSION: The cumulative incidence of CWP patients was slowed down with prolonged dust exposure starting time. There were differences among different types of workers with different starting time of dust exposure.

Objective:
To explore the effect of comprehensive rehabilitation treatment of individualized exercise program on lung function, exercise ability, quality of life and biochemical indexes of coal workers’ pneumoconiosis patients, and to provide scientific and effective methods for rehabilitation treatment of coal workers' pneumoconiosis.
Methods:
In Huaibei Coal Mine Occupational Disease Prevention and Control Hospital, the data of pneumoconiosis patients treated by pneumoconiosis department in the hospital were collected and sorted out. 80 patients were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Using a random number table, they were randomly divided into two groups with 40 cases in each group. The data investigated in this study include the results before and after treatment. Pulmonary function index, BMI index, six-minute walking distance (6MWD) , quality of life questionnaire (SF-36) , hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS) , st George's breathing questionnaire (sgrq) , c-reactive protein (CRP) and blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) were used to evaluate and compare the efficacy of the two groups.
Results:
The lung function indexes of the test group were significantly higher than those of the control group after treatment (
