Objective To explore the relationship of human papilloma virus (HPV) genotype and loading dose with development of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) or squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix ( SCC),and explore the relationship of HPV genotype and CIN or SCC.Methods One hundred and twenty four patients in Sun Yat-sen Memoral Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University with CIN or SCC from September 2005 to December 2010 were selected in this study.HPV DNA was detected by Hybrid capture Ⅱand flow-through hybridization and gene chip.The relationship between the infection of HPV and CIN or SCC was analyzed.The influencing factors of CIN or SCC were analyzed by logistic regression.Results The total detection rate of HPV was 75.8％,and it was 44.4％,70.0％,95.7％ and 76.2％ in CIN Ⅰ,CIN Ⅱ,CIN Ⅲ and SCC group,respectively.The detection rate of HPV in high-grade lesion group ( 84.5％ ) was higher than low-grade lesion group(44.4％ ).The median of HPV load decreased in order as CIN Ⅲ,SCC,CIN Ⅱ and CIN Ⅰgroup.Infection of multi-genotypes or single genotype of high-risk HPV accounted for 97.9％.In logistic regression,HPV loading dose had significant influence on degree of cervical lesion.Conclusions Infection of HPV is a main etiological factor for SCC.There is some kind of correlation between HPV loading dose and development of SCC.

Objective To determine levels of nuclear factor (NF)-κB, interleukin (IL)-10, and visfatin in adipocytes treated by different degrees of intermittent hypoxia (IH), and to investigate the mechanism of IH leading to insulin resistance (IR). Methods The cell model of intermittent hypoxia/re-oxygenation (IH/ROX) in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) was established. Differentiation mature 3T3-L1 adipocytes, were randomly divided into 10 groups including four different-frequency intermittent hypoxia groups(IH1-4, fixed intermittent hypoxia scheme for 1.5%O2 45 s and then re-oxygen 21%O2 for 2 min 15 s, 4 min 15 s, 5 min 45 s and 8 min 45 s, 60 times circulation), and their normal oxygen control groups (SC1-4, instead each IH group 1.5%O2 to 21%O2, the rest groups were treated as same as IH group), continuous hypoxia group (CH, 10%O2 for 6 h) and normal oxygen control group (CC, 21%O2 for 6 h). ELISA method was used to determine the levels of IL-10 and visfatin in the supematant of adipocytes. Western blot method was used to determine the protein levels of NF-κB p65 and visfatin. Real-time PCR method was used to determine the mRNA levels of IL-10 and visfatin. Results The protein and mRNA expressions of IL-10 were significantly lower in IH group and CH group than those of control groups (P<0.01). The levels of NF-κB p65 protein were significantly increased in IH group and CH group than those of control group. The protein and mRNA expressions of visfatin were significantly higher in IH1, IH2 and CH groups than those of control group (P<0.01). Conclusion As a prominent feature of OSA pathophysiology, IH may take part in insulin resistance of OSA patients by abnormally secreting NF-κB, IL-10 and visfatin in adipocytes.

Background Studies showed that some members of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play an important role in the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy (DR).However,whether MMPs inhibitor can deter blood retinal barrier (BRB) from damage is below understood.Objective This study was to investigate the effects of GM6001,a MMPs inhibitor,on BRB permeability.Methods Twenty-four adult clean SD rats were randomized to the control group,diabetic group and diabetes+GM6001 group according to randomized number table.Diabetic models were induced by the intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin in the rats of the diabetic group and the diabetes + GM6001 group,and equal volume of citrate buffer was used in the same way in the rats of the control group.GM6001 10 μ1 (100 μ mol/L) was intravitreously injected in the third and fourteenth day after modeling in the diabetes+ GM6001 group,and equal volume of normal saline solution was injected in the same way in the control group and the diabetic group.The rats were sacrificed and eyeballs were extracted 1 month after injection,and the relative expressions of MMP-2 mRNA and MMP-9 mRNA in rat retinas were detected by reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR).Evens blue (EB) was infused via the right jugular vein,and paraformaldehyde solution 1％ was then infused via left ventricle at the perfusion pressure 120 mmHg.The eyeballs were extracted 2 minutes later,and the leakage of EB in rat retinas was examined.Results RT-PCR electrophoresis exhibited the response bands of MMP-2 mRNA,and MMP-9 mRNA and GAPDH,with the gene size of 436,536 and 484 bp,respectively.The difference of the MMP2 mRNA and MMP-9 mRNA was statisticaly significant (F =20.336,P =0.000 ; F =8.742,P =0.002) ; and the relative expressions of MMP-2 mRNA and MMP-9 mRNA were significantly higher in the diabetic group and diabetes +GM6001 group than those in the control group (all at P＜0.01),and the relative expressions of MMP-2 mRNA and MMP-9 mRNA in the diabetes+GM6001 group was significantly reduced in comparison with the diabetic group(both P=0.01,P=0.02).The standardized EB content in the retinas of the control group,diabetic group and diabetes+ GM6001 group was (12.60±3.50) ng/mg,(26.52±7.14) ng/mg and (17.55±2.65) ng/mg,showing a significant difference (F=17.032,P＜0.01),and EB content in rat retinas in the diabetic group was higher than that in the control group (P=0.003),and that in the diabetes+GM6001 group was lower in comparison with the diabetic group (P=0.020).Conclusions Intravitreal injection of GM6001 can down-regulate the expression of MMP-2 mRNA and MMP-9 mRNA in diabetic rats and therefore protect BRB.

Objective To evaluate the effect and significance of apoptosis inducing factor (AIF) on promoting apoptosis of hypertrophic cardiomyocytes induced by hypoxia/reoxygenation. Methods Cardiomyocytes of neonatal Kunming strain rats were isolated and cultured. Cardiomyocyte hypertrophy was induced by angiotensinⅡ (0.1?mol/L for 12h), and the cells were cultured under the condition of hypoxia and reoxygenation. The cultured cardiomyocytes were then divided into seven groups: hypertrophic cardiomyocyte control (HC) group, hypoxia for 8h (H8h) group, hypoxia for 12h (H12h) group, hypoxia for 8h and reperfusion for 4h (H8h/R) group, hypoxia for 12h and reperfusion for 4h (H12h/R) group, hypoxia for 12h+siRNA transfection (H12h+siRNA) group, and hypoxia for 12h and reperfusion for 4h+siRNA transfection (H12h/R+siRNA) group. Cardiomyocytes were transfected with AIF siRNA. Apoptosis was detected with Hoechst 33258 staining. The AIF mRNA and protein expressions were detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting. Results The levels of AIF mRNA and protein expression were significantly higher in H8h group and H12h group (mRNA: 0.52?0.04, 0.85?0.10, respectively; protein: 2.07?0.15, 3.12?0.19, respectively) compared with that in HC group (mRNA: 0.29?0.08; protein: 1.00?0.04, P0.05). The percentage of apoptosis in H12h/R+siRNA group (24.90%?3.90%) was significant higher than that in H12h/R group (14.50%?1.32%, P

Object To examine if Leonurus artemisia (Lour ) S Y Hu (Labiatae) contains ferulic acid Methods The samples were extracted by different solvents and the extracts examined by TLC and HPLC Results Ferulic acid was detectable in the extracts of L artemisia Conclusion L artemisia possibly contains free ferulic acid The use of 5% Na 2CO 3 as the extractant instead of methanol, as described in Chinese Pharmacopoeia seemed to be more simple, highly stable and with good reproducibility

Objective To assess the value of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography(CEUS)in evaluating the therapeutic efficacy of uterine leiomyoma treated by radiofrequency ablation(RFA)and to discuss the value of its application.Methods Forty-four patients which were diagnosed as uterine leiomyomas by ultrasonic guidance needle puncture biopsy preoperation were examined by CEUS before and one week after RFA treatment respectively,and the patho-results were got again after the surgery.Routine ultrasonography was performed in 1,3,6,12 months after the treatment to compare the volume change of uterine leiomyomas with the change of the clinical symptoms.Results After the treatment,CEUS showed that the contrast agent didn't appear in thirty-five patients'uterine leiomyomas and the nonperfusion regions matched the size of the uterine leiomyomas completely.The contrast agent enhanced on the edge of the uterine leiomyomas in nine,the patho-results confirmed that the nonperfusion regions of the contrast agent were necrosis tissues and the marginal local enhancement regions were incomplete necrosis.Three month after RFA treatment,the uterine leiomyomas began to shrink,which showed obviously in 6 months after the treatment.There were significant differences in the parameters before and after the treatment(P＜0.05).Clinical symptoms improved obviously in thirty-five patients(90%)after the treatment.Conclusions RFA is an effective minimally invasive surgery of the uterine leiomyoma.CEUS can identify the treatment range and the remaining tissues.It has significant value in guiding the supplementary treatment.

Objective To investigate Helicobacter pylori(Hp)infection and HLA-DQA1 allelic frequency in family members of children with recurrent abdominal pain.Methods One hundred and eighteen family members of 20 children with recurrent abdominal pain were divided into two groups:with and without recurrent abdominal pain.Serum Hp antibody was tested by dot immunogold filtration assay and immunophenotyping was determined by Western blot(immunobiot)technique.Polymerase chain reactionsequence specific primers(PCR-SSP)technique Was applied to identify HLA-DQAi allelic frequencies.Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test was performed(P>0.05),and Chi-square test was used to compare the frequency of HLA-DQA1 alleles between the groups.Results The Hp seropositive rate in 118 members Was 100%and the Hp immunophenotyping was 96.6%.The prevalence of Hp Ⅰ and Ⅱ type was 55.1%(65/118)and41.5%(49/118).HLA-DQA1*0302 allelic frequency Was significantly higher in subjects with recurrent abdominal pain than that in subjects without one(23%vs.2%,X2=13.277,P=0.000).Conclusion There is immunogenetic difference between familial members with and without recurrent abdominal pain infected by Hp,and HLA-DQA1*0302 may be the associated gene contributing to different clinical outcomes after Hp infections.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effects of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) on improving left ventricle (LV) function and LV asynchrony in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy(DCM)using three-dimensional ultrasound speckle tracking imaging(3D-STI).MethodsTwenty one patients with DCM and 25 normal subjects were enrolled in this study.Parameters including LV mean longitudinal peak strain (MLS),LV mean circumferential peak strain (MCS),LV mean radial peak strain (MRS),LV ejection fraction(3D-LVEF),maximal temporal difference in area strain of LV 16 segments (A-MaxTs) and its standard deviation (A-Ts-SD) were investigated by 3D-STI.LV ejection fraction (ECT-LVEF) and LV phase angle width (LVW) were obtained by radionuclide ventriculography and phase image analysis.Results The indexes of MLS,MCS,MRS and 3D-LVEF were decreased and A-MaxTs,A-Ts-SD were prolonged in DCM group compared with those of control group.There was a slightly improvement in MRS and ECTLVEF 1 week after CRT,but other Parameters including MLS,MCS,A-MaxTs,A-Ts-SD and 3D-LVEF had no significant change.Compared with corresponding values before and 1 week after CRT,all parameters (MCS,MRS,A-MaxTs,A-Ts-SD,3D-LVEF and ECT-LVEF) were further improved 6 months after CRT.MLS,MCS,MRS and 3D-LVEF had good relationship with ECT-LVEF,and A-MaxTs,A-Ts-SD had good relationship with LVW in DCM group.Conclusions3D-STI is a simple and accurate method for evaluating effects of CRT on improving LV function and LV asynchrony in patients with DCM.
