Objective To analyze the gene expression profiles in response to ΔNp63α overexpression, and screen the potential target genes or signal pathways regulated by ΔNp63α. Methods To generate ΔNp63α overexpressed SiHa cells ( SiHa-ΔNp63α) and the control cells ( SiHa-NC) , recombinant lentivirus transfection was performed. Microarray was applied to detect the change of gene expression profiles, and the results were analyzed with bioinfor-matic software. Quantitative real-time PCR was used to validate the expression levels of selected genes. Results Among the 1405 differentially expressed genes which were statistically significant, >1. 5 fold increase or reduce of gene expression, 843 were up-regulated and 562 were down-regulated in SiHa cells with ΔNp63α overexpression. The genes were mostly involved in cell development,cycle regulation, signal transduction, communication, adhe-sion, metastasis and invasion, etc. The involved signal pathways consisted of antigen processing and presentation, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, cell adhesion, complement and coagulation cascades, and so on. Conclu-sion The research on the potential target genes or mediated signal pathways regulated by ΔNp63α could be helpful to explain the development of cervical cancer.

Objective To evaluate the impact of PET/CT on the clinical therapeutical strategy of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods Sixty patients with histologically confirmed NSCLC supposed to accept radical radiotherapy or surgical operation were firsthy divided into group A (stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ) and group B (stage Ⅲ) according to CT findings, and the individualized treatment strategy was designed, then restage and compare with different stage and management with initial treatment strategy by PET/CT scanning. Results ①PET/CT scanning restaged the TNM stage in 53.33% (32/60) patients, including 3 of T stage, 23 of N stage and 9 of M stage. Changes of stage occurred in 65.85% (27/41) patients with adenocarcinoma and in 26.32% (5/19) with squamous carcinoma (P＜0.05), while in 34.29 (12/35) with central and 57.14% (20/35) with peripheral NSCLCs (P＜0.05). ②PET/CT scanning resulted in alteration of the managements of NSCLC patients. The management changed from radical into palliative strategy with PET/CT information in 9 (15.00%) patients. In 25 patients who were supposed to accept surgical operation, the treatment changed to radical radiotherapy in 8 (8/25, 32.00%) and to palliative radiotherapy in 5 (20.00%) patients. In 35 patients who were supposed to accept radiotherapy, surgical operation or palliative radiotherapy was finally chosen in 5.71% (2/35) and 11.43% (4/35) patients, respectively. Conclusion PET/CT images can make significant alteration to clinical stage and treatment plan in patients with NSCLC.

Objective To investigate the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK) signaling pathway in the endometrium of women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and its effect and significance in the cause of hyperplasia and carcinoma;and investigate the factors which affect the activation of the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway. Methods Collected 52 patients diagnosed as PCOS who were taken dilation and curettage of uterus as study, while 32 non-PCOS patients matched as control group. Serum hormonal parameters, fasting blood glucose and insulin were measured in all patients. The PCOS patients were sub-group as insulin resistance group and non-insulin resistance group; all the patients were carried out pathology inspection of endometria, and the PCOS patients were sub-group as endometrial hyperplasia and carcinoma group and normal endometrium group based on the outcome of pathology inspection. Western blot were performed to detect the expressions of ERK1/2 and phosphorylated ERK1/2 (p-ERK1/2), the activation of ERK1/2. Results (1)The expression of pERK1/2 [(61 ±13)%] in the endometrium in PCOS group was higher than that in the control [(44 ±10)%, P ＜0.01]. (2)The expression of p-ERK1/2 was significantly increased in group of endometrial hyperplasia and carcinoma [ ( 70 ± 11 )% ] compared to that in group of normal endometrium [ (55 ± 10)% ,P ＜ 0.01 ], while there were significant difference between group of insulin resistance [ (63 ± 13 )% ] and group of non-insulin resistance [ (55 ±7)%, P ＜0.01 ]. (3) Fasting insulin level, insulin area under the curve and body mass index were related to the expression of p-ERK1/2 in endometrium with PCOS, the correlation coefficient were 0.447, 0.456 and 0.381, respectively ( all P ＜ 0.01 ). Conclusions The MAPK/ERK signaling pathway in endometrium with PCOS was overactivation, which was related to the endometrial hyperplasia and carcinoma; while the activation of MAPK/ERK signaling pathway were effected by insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia.

Translationally controlled tumor protein (TCTP)is a small protein highly conserved in a variety of eukaryotic species.TCTP is overexpressed in various tumor cells and has been implicated in the regu-lation of cellular processes including apoptosis,DNA repair and drug resistance.By reviewing the recent pro-gress of TCTP research,TCTP is becoming an important regulator of DNA repair and a new molecular target for tumor therapy.

A method was developed for the determination of fumonisin B1 ( FB1 ) and fumonisin B2 ( FB2 ) in livestock and poultry formula feeds by high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS. After extracted by acetonitrile-water (50: 50, V/V) and purified with MAX solid phase extraction column, the fumonisins were separated by Thermo C18(100 mm×2. 1 mm, 5 μm) column with 0. 1% formic acid in water and methanol as the mobile phase. Multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) was used to acquire mass spectrometric data under electrospray positive ionization mode ( ESI+) . The results showed that the linear correlation coefficients (R2) of fumonisin FB1 and FB2 were all greater than 0. 999 in the range of 1-500 μg/L. The limits of quantitation (LOQ) were 0. 098 and 0. 197 μg/L, and the limits of detection ( LOD) were 0. 328 and 0. 656 μg/L, respectively. At different spiked levels, the recoveries of FB1 and FB2 were ranged from 89. 7% to 95. 1%, and the relative standard deviation ( RSD) was ranged from 3. 2% to 8. 6%. Additionally, the detection rate reached 98. 11% screening through the established method in the 106 livestock and poultry formula feeds collected from markets. This result indicates that the method is suitable for accurate quantitative analysis of FB1 and FB2 in different complicated livestock and poultry formula feeds.

AIM: To investigate that nicotine inhibits HMGB1 expression and release in RAW264.7 cells.METHODS: (1) RAW264.7 cells were cultured in 6 wells plate, treated with 250 μg/L LPS and 1 μmol/L or 10 μmol/L nicotine, in which the cells treated with or without 250 μg/L LPS were regarded as nicotine 1 group (N1), nicotine 2 group (N2), LPS group (LPS) and control group (C), respectively. HMGB1 protein in the cell culture media and in cell nuclear was examined by Western blotting and the cellular HMGB1 mRNA level was detected by RT-PCR. (2) Transfected with antisense RNA or sense RNA of α~7 subunit-containing nicotinic receptor (α~7nAChR), RAW264.7 cells were treated with 250 μg/L LPS and 10 μmol/L nicotine, HMGB1 protein in the culture media was also tested by Western blotting.RESULTS: (1) HMGB1 mRNA level in C group was low (1 659.20±121.05) and no significant statistical difference among groups of N1, N2 and LPS was observed (P>0.05). (2) Higher HMGB1 accumulation in the cell culture media was detected in LPS group (445.34±28.52) than that in C group. Compared to LPS group, both N1 and N2 groups distinctly attenuated HMGB1 accumulation in culture media (P<0.05). (3) Nuclear HMGB1 accumulation was lower in LPS group than that in C group, and two different nicotine concentrations markedly increased the nuclear HMGB1 accumulation compared to LPS group (P<0.05). (4) No significant difference of HMGB1 levels in culture media between antisense RNA group and LPS group was observed (P>0.05). In sense RNA group, however, HMGB1 level was observably reduced compared to antisense group (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: The present results suggest that nicotine dramatically inhibits RAW264.7 cell nuclear HMGB1 translocation and extracellular release, and this effect relies on α~7nAch receptor expression.

Objective To compare the outcome of in vitro fertilization (IVF) between sequential embryo transfer and simple blastocyst transplantation in patients with previous multiple IVF failures. Methods A total of 170 patients with repeated implantation failure were divided into sequential transfer group (n=71) and blastocyst transfer only group (n=99). A retrospective matched case-control analysis was made for the medical files of 71 patients who underwent sequential transfer of D3 embryos and blastocysts. The control group included 99 matched women who underwent embryo transfer on D5/6 only. All of the patients in two groups used the same protocols of emdometrium preparation (natural cycle or hormone-replacement cycle) and ultrasound-guided transplantation. The embryo implantation rate and clinical pregnancy rate were compared and analyzed between two groups. Results Sequential transfer of embryos resulted in a clinical pregnancy rate of 60.6%compared with that of 31.3%following D5/6 embryo transfer, and the implantation rate was 34.8%and 23.8%respectively (P<0.05). Although the total number of transfered embryos were higher in sequential transfer group than that of blastula transfer only group, the number of D5/6 embryo transfered in sequential transfer group were less than blastula transfer only group (P<0.05). And the number of high quality blastula transfered showed no statistical significant difference between two groups. There were 20 cases of twin and 5 cases of triplet pregnancy in sequential transfer group, which were 5 cases and 1 case in blastula transfer only group respectively. While, there was no case of muliple pregnancy beyond triplet in both groups Conclusion Sequential transfer of embryos can be used for women with repeated IVF cycles. The program avoids the possibility of eliminating the transplant, and which is effective in patients with more transplant embryos.
