Objective To explore the clinical and pathological feature of pediatric chronic gastritis and whether gastritics in children related to hericobacter pylori(Hp).Methods Retrospective analysis the result of 401 children with gastroendosopy and 100 species with Hp detected were performed.Results Superficial gastritis form mild to moderate was the mainly pathologic change in pediatric chronic gastritis,chronic inflammation was the mainly change in pediatric Hp infection,and the detected rate of chronic superficial gastritis from mo-(derate) to heavy was significantly higher than mild(?~2=7.61 P

Objective To study the clinical pathological features of mesenteric and omental inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) in children.Method Clinical features,laboratory result,pathological evidence for diagnosis and treatment of 5 cases with mesenteric and omental IMT were analyzed and evaluated.Results Intra-abdominal mass was most frequently found in childhood mesenteric and omental IMT.Gastrointestinal obstruction was showed in 2 cases.Anemia,leucocytosis,thrombocytosis,polyclonal-hyperglobulinemia appeared in 5 cases.The histological pattern showed:4 cases were myxoid pattern IMT,1 case was compact spindle cells pattern IMT.Immunohistochemistry showed:the spindle cells were expressed vimentin,smooth muscle action(SMA) and desmin.Partial spindle cells were anaplastic lymphoma kinase(ALK) and cytokeratin(CK) positive,while S-100 protein,CD34 were negative.Complete surgical excision was performed on 5 cases.Follow-up studies ranged from 5 months to 3 years,and no patient developed recurrence.Conclusions Childhood mesenteric and omental IMT is a rare interstitial tumor.The diagnosis should be based on pathological and immunohistochemistry examinations.Most cases are benign,and complete surgical excision can avoid local recurrence.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effect of peimine on excision repair cross-complementation 1 (ERCC1) mRNA and lung resistant protein (LRP) expressions in A549/cisplatin (DDP) multidrug resistance (MDR) cell line.

METHODSLung cancer A549/DDP cells were cultured in vitro.Cells at logarithmic growth phase were divided into 4 groups, i.e., the blank control group, the DDP group, the ligustrazine group (DDP+ligustrazine), the peimine group (DDP + peimine). After 48-h drug action, ERCC1 mRNA expression was detected by RT-PCR and LRP expression detected by cell immunofluorescence.

RESULTSThere was no statistical difference in expression levels of ERCC1 mRNA and LRP between the DDP group and the blank control group (P > 0.05). Compared with the DDP group, expression levels of ERCC1 mRNA and LRP obviously decreased in the ligustrazine group and the peimine group (P < 0.05). They were obviously lower in the peimine group than in the ligustrazine group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSPeimine could reverse MDR of A549/DDP cell line. Its mechanism might be associated with down-regulating ERCC1 mRNA and LRP expression levels.

Immunohistochemical technique was an essential tool of conventional diagnosis,therefore,the application of immunohisto- chemistry in reformation of pathology laboratory teaching would boost pathological experimental teaching standards to a higher level.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and the efficacy of ultrasound in promoting PLGA nanoparticle-mediated gene transfection in vivo.Methods Prostate cancer cell line PC-3 was used to generate xenografts in nude mice for gene transfection experiment in vivo.GFP plasmid was encapsulated in PLGA-based nanoparticles.Nanoparticles were injected into tumors locally.Two hours later,xenografts were exposed to ultrasound.Xenograft tissues were harvested in different time points to assess the efficiency of gene expression with regard to different parameters of ultrasound. Results PLGA nanoparticle-encapsulated GFP plasmids were readily transfected to PC-3 cells in vivo.A large number of GFP expressing cells were observed after exposed to ultrasound with 1.0 MHz 50% duty factor continuous wave.In comparison,ultrasound exposure with 40% duty factor pulse wave in vivo had low efficacy in terms of GFP expression.No animal death was noticed due to ultrasound exposure.Conclusions Ultrasound exposure can enhance the release of plasmid DNA content delivered by PLGA nanoparticles in vivo,local exposure to ultrasound wave would be used in conjunction with PLGA nanoparticle-mediated targeted delivery to the tissue or organ of interest.

Objective To identify the effective results of ultrasound in degradation of polymeric nanoparticles released DNA .Polymeric nanoparticles was made by dehydration of polyacetylglutamicacid (PLGA, polylactic-co-glycolic acid)solution. Method Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) was enclosed by PLGA. Different kinds of ultrasound mode and different duct cycle and power ones were used to radiate PLGA solution for 90 s, 9 min, 20 min separately after the solution prepared for 2 hrs,then putted the solution on centrifugal machine at 13000 r/m. Using Choloroform to get rid of fat-soluble impurity,then applied nanodrop to survey the releasing rate of DNA. Finally the effect of cell expression were observed by fluorescent microscope. Results The amount of DNA released from PLGA in groups which were exposed to ultrasound were significantly different from the groups which were not exposed to ultrosound. The releasing amount of former groups had upper limitation. The releasing rate was increased with the increment of the irradiation time,frequency of ultrasound;The effect of the DNA releasing and PLGA degradation by continuous-wave irradiation was stronger than pulsed-wave ultrasound. Conclusion Ultrasound can promote the degradation of PLGA, and do help in DNA releasing and expression in vitro.

Lactoferrin (Lf) is one of the food protein belonged to the innate immune system. Apart from its main biological function of binding and transport of iron ions, lactoferrin also has many other functions and properties such as antibacterial, antiviral, antiparasitic, catalytic, anti-cancer, anti-allergic and radioprotecting. Lf is usually used as additives of food and cosmetics. The research of lactoferrin has been increasingly reported, and the application of lactoferrin as a drug carrier has drawn extensive attention over the recent year. In this paper, researches of lactoferrin as drug carriers are classified and summarized in brain targeting, liver tumor targeting, lung tumor targeting and oral delivery systems according to their different characteristics.

To investigate the feasibility to produce crocetin in tobacco plants.The coding region of zeaxanthin cleavage dioxygenase (CSzCD) gene from Crocus sativus L. was inserted into the downstream of the cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 35S promoter of a binary vector pBI121, and integrated into the genome of Nicotiana tabacum L. Twenty-one transgenic lines were identified by genomic southern blotting analysis. Western blotting and HPLC analysis of the leaf extracts of transgenic tobacco showed that crocetin was produced in CSzCD gene-transformed plants, while no crocetin was found in the untransformed tobacco.
