Objective To determine the expression of adapter protein p66Shc in mediating alveolar epithelial cells induced by hyperoxia and to explore their relationship.Methods A549 cells were cultured in vitro and divided randomly into a control group and a hyperoxia group.The hyperoxia group was exposed to a mixture of oxygen(O2,900 mL/L) and carbon dioxide(CO2,50 mL/L) for 10 min,then cultured in a closed environment.The changes in morphology were observed under inverted microscope after exposure to oxygen or air for 24 hours.The cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry (FC) after 24 hours.And the expression of p66Shc was detected by immunohistochemical method after 24 hours.The correlation of the changes in mitochondrial membrane potential and p66Shc protein expression was analyzed by using Bivariate correlation analysis.Results 1.Under inverted microscopy,A549 cells from the air group significantly increased,stuck to each other tightly and grew very quickly.Their adhesion was better,multy-angle oblate and many cells were in division phase.Compared with the control group,the changes in morphology of A549 were remarked and obvious than those in the hyperoxia group.The cells grew slowly,their counts decreased and the cell morphology changed from typical multi-angle oblate to round or ellipse.2.Compared with the control group,after 24 h,in hyperoxia group of A549 cells,red fluorescence decreased,and green fluorescence enhanced.3.Compared with the controls (0.057 664 88 ± 0.006 517 84),the expression of p66Shc (0.123 600 50 ± 0.004 227 23) was significantly increased in the hyperoxia group(t =-24.006,P ＜ 0.001).4.The decline of membrane potential was negatively correlated with the increased expression of p66Shc protein (R =-0.988,P ＜ 0.001).Conclusions The hyperoxia induction could significantly increase in injured mediating alveolar epithelial cells induced by hyperoxia,the expression of p66Shc increases,the membrane potential declined,and they exhibit a negative correlation.So p66Shc may be involved in the process of high oxygen damage to human alveolar epithelial cells.

Objective: To screen the Hub genes associated with the occurrence and development of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and to analyze their biological functions by using various bioinformatics analysis tools. Methods: ESCC chip profile GSE100942 from GEO database was used as study subject; GEO2R tool was used to analyze the data and to screen the differentially expressed genes (DEGs), and the bioinformatics tools (DAVID, String, Cytoscape) were further used to construct protein-protein interaction (PPI) network and identify the key Hub genes. GO and KEGG were used for the biological function enrichment analysis. In the meanwhile, MiRDB was applied to identify the miRNAs that might regulate Hub genes and to construct Hub gene–miRNA network. Importantly, the expression of DEGs and the patient survival were verified by the GEPIA analysis tool. Results: By analyzing GSE100942 database, a total of 1229 DEGs with difference of 2 times and 223 DEGs with difference of 4 times were screened out. In addition, 20 Hub genes, which were all up-regulated in ESCC tissues, were also identified. The functional enrichment analysis showed that these DEGs were mainly enriched in cancer related pathways and involved in cell division and mitotic nuclear division. Among those 20 Hub genes, DLGAP5, BUB1B, TPX2, TTK, CDC20, CCNB2, AURKA and DEPDC1 were identified as 8 key Hub genes that related with ESCC, and involved in many important biological processes, such as cell proliferation, cell cycle and signal pathway. Five Hub genes, CEP55, ECT2, NEK2, DEPDC1 and NUSAP1, were identified to be highly regulated by the miRNA regulatory network. Conclusion: Microarray combined with bioinformatics can effectively analyze the DEGs associated with the occurrence and development of ESCC. The identification of the 20 Hub genes and the 8 key Hub genes can provide theoretical guidance for further research on the molecular mechanism and molecular marker screening of ESCC. ·

Objectives To explore the role of PKCβ/p66Shc oxidative stress signaling pathway in hyperoxia-induced apoptosis of alveolar epithelial cells A549. Methods A549 cells were cultured in vitro and divided randomly into control (incubated with 5%CO2), hyperoxia group (exposed to a mixture of 900 ml/L O2 and 50 ml/L CO2 at speed of 3 L/min for 10 mins, then cultured in a closed environment) and LY333531 group (treated with 10μmol/L of PKCβinhibitor LY333531 for 24h then induced with hyperoxia for 10 mins). The cellular morphology was observed under inverted microscope at 12, 24 and 48 h of treatment. The cell apoptosis was detected by lfow cytometry. Expression of PKCβ/Pin1/p66Shc/p66Shc-Ser36 were detected by immunohistochemistry after 24 h of treatment. Results Comparing to the control group, the cellular morphology of A549 in the hyperoxia group changed to spherical shapes and space between cells increased, the living cell count decreased and suspension cell increased. The living cell count in LY333531 group increased and suspension cell decreased than those in hyperoxia group but not reach the levels of the control group. The apoptosis rate of A549 cells and the expression of PKCβ/Pin1/p66Shc/p66Shc-Ser36 at 24 h were signiifcantly increased in the hyperoxia group than those in the control group, while the apoptosis rate and the expression of PKCβ/Pin1/p66Shc/p66Shc-Ser36 were greatly decreased in the LY333531 group than those in the hyperoxia group (all P<0.01). Conclusions The expression of PKCβin A549 cells can be increased by the hyper-oxia induction but reduced by LY333531, and then the expressions of Pin1, p66Shc and p66Shc-Ser36 are reduced. Thus the re-duced apoptosis of A549 cells relieve the cell injury induced by hyperoxia.

Objective To evalute the effect of Ilizarov technique in the treatment of hypertrophic nonunion.Methods Form June 2008 to December 2010,12 patients with hypertrophic nonunion were treated with Ilizarov technique,including 10 males and 2 females with an average age of 46.5 years.The pathology sites of nonunion were kept as closed as possible without any bone graft during operation.As to patients who had ever been treated with plate or intramedullary nail,the hardware should be removed by minimal invasive approach.These procedures aimed to keep the vascularity of nonunion site intact.Ilizarov apparatus were preoperatively constructed.Distal segment and proximal segment of nonunion were mounted respectively with two external circle using the smooth wires and half pins.The two-circle stabilizing one segment was nominated with transosseous modules.Distal module and proximal one was connected with a pair of axial hinges.The pathology sites were gradually distracted from the seventh day postoperatively,0.25 mm/d.Accompanying with deformity correction,limb length discrepancy (LLD) also were restored simultaneously.Then,all the screws and nuts in the apparatus should be tightened,which was favourable to the callus consolidation.Results All 12 cases of nonunion healed without any bone graft.The fixator wearing time lasted 6-12 months,with an average of 8 months.Correction of deformity and LLD were achieved.The average lengthening was 3.0 cm (range,2.0-5.5 cm),the average correction angle was 23° (range,10°-30°).After 6-18 months follow-up,all the patients restored satisfactory function.Conclusion Hypertrophic nonunion can be treated successfully with Ilizarov technique.The key of successful callus distraction is strictly identifying the indications.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of mild hypothermia on neonatal bilirubin encephalopathy, and the value of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/CT and amplitude integrated electroencephalogram (aEEG) for diagnosis and evaluation of curative effect. Methods From May, 2013 to December, 2014, 29 newborns with bilirubin encephalopathy were divided into conventional group (n=15) and mild hypothermia group (n=14). The conventional group received conventional therapy, and the other group received mild hypothermia in addition. The aEEG and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) were measured before and after treatment, as well as the glucose metabolism rate with 18F-FDG PET/CT after treatment. Results The NSE was lower after treatment in both groups (t>9.670, P<0.001), and was lower in the mild hypothermia group than in the conventional group (F=46.146, P<0.001). After treatment, sleep-wake cycle (SWC), epileptiform activity and the degree of abnormality were obviously improved (P<0.05), and were better in the mild hypothermia group than in the conventional group (P<0.05). The cerebral glucose metabolism rate was significantly better in the mild hypo-thermia group than in the conventional group (t>2.943, P<0.01). The cerebral glucose metabolism rate was negatively correlated with aEEG and NSE (r>0.640, P<0.05). Conclusion Mild hypothermia therapy could further promote the energy metabolism of brain cells in neonatal bilirubin encephalopathy. 18F-FDG PET/CT and aEEG can be used for early diagnosis and therapeutic evaluation.

Objective To investigate and analyze the preventive effect of boron on the cartilage damage in rats with intake excessive fluoride. Methods Fifty-ix Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into the control group (C, intake distilled water), the excessive fluoride dose group (EF, intake distilled water with 100 ppm F-) and the boron prevention group (P, intake distilled water with 100 ppm F- as well as the supplemental boron dietary). 3 to 5 months later, fluorine contents in serum, RNA contents in costal cartilage were assayed. The morphological changes in tibia growth plate cartilage (GPC) in rats were observed. Results Although exposed to the same dose of fluoride, the fluorine contents in serum in rats of P group decreased notably compared with those of EF group, the damage of tibia GPC under optical and electron microscope lessened significantly, and RNA contents in costal cartilage increased obviously in the 3rd month. Conclusion Boron added could decrease the fluorine level in the body and relieve the toxic symptom of excess fluoride, and thus boron has a preventive effect on skeletal fluorosis.

Super hydrophobic interface modified with silver nanoparticles was fabricated for the detection of pesticide residues.By using a chemical reduction method,silver nanoparticles were deposited on the substrate surfaces with different microscopic pore structures.Two kinds of composite substrates,including regular stainless steel mesh and cellulose polyester film,were used.The pre-treatment of the substrate with fluoridated reagents was used to form a super hydrophobic interface,which made the target molecules on the surface concentrate effectively.The surface with the cellulose polyester substrate was used to detect Rhodamine 6G (R 6G) effectively with surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technique.The results showed that the detection hmit was 10-16 mol/L.In addition,the surfaces based on the stainless steel mesh and cellulose polyester substrate were used to detect trichlorfon pesticide with detection limits of 1 × 10-15 mol/L and 1 × 10-16 mol/L,respectively.
