Objective To evaluate effects of human papilloma virus(HPV)16E7 on expressions of six tumor suppressor genes(including MT1G, NMES1, RRAD, SFRP1, SPARC and TFPI2)in a cell line SiHa, as well as on its proliferation and apoptosis. Methods SiHa cells were divided into two groups to be transfected with a small interfering RNA targeting HPV16E7(E7SiRNA, experimental group)and an empty vehicle(negative control group) respectively, with SiHa cells receiving no treatment serving as the blank control group. After 48 hours, qPCR was performed to measure the mRNA expressions of E7 and six tumor suppressor genes, CCK?8 assay to evaluate cellular proliferative activity, and flow cytometry to assess apoptosis of SiHa cells. Results At 48 hours after the transfection, the experimental group showed significantly decreased E7 mRNA expression(0.25 ± 0.036, P<0.05), but increased mRNA expressions of the six genes(MT1G 1.403 ± 0.190, NMES1 1.720 ± 0.060, RRAD 1.390 ± 0.160, SFRP1 1.493 ± 0.120, SPARC 2.157 ± 0.144, TFPI2 2.060 ± 0.122, all P < 0.05). The proliferative activity of SiHa cells was significantly decreased(0.554 ± 0.130 vs. 1.028 ± 0.236 and 1.220 ± 0.126, both P<0.05), but the apoptosis rate was significantly increased(9.222%vs. 0.246%and 0.123%, both P<0.05)in the experimental group compared with the negative control group and blank control group. No significant differences were observed between the negative control group and blank control group in proliferative activity or apoptosis rate of SiHa cells(both P>0.05). Conclusion E7 may participate in HPV16?induced cellular malignant transformation by suppressing the mRNA expressions of 6 tumor suppressor genes, including MT1G, NMES1, RRAD, SFRP1, SPAR and TFPI2.

Objective To explore the initial effects of the treatment of proximal femoral nail-helical blade (PFNA) in elderly patients with intertrochanteric fracture of the incomplete lateral wall type. Methods A total of 25 patients were enrolled in this study including 8 cases of type A2, 17 cases of type A3 according to AO classification. All patients under-went three-dimensional CT scan. In all patients with type A2 fracture, there were 6 cases with coronal plane fracture on the greater trochanter, and PFNA was used instead of DHS when an iatrogenic fracture occurred in 2 patients. All other patients were treated with closed reduction and fixed with PFNA. Results All patients healed and the average healing time was 11 weeks, one patient fell down once again and the fracture occurred on the shaft, when a long PFNA was used, both of the frac-tures healed 14 weeks after surgery. In all of the 25 patients,1 patient died due to cerebral hemorrhage 13 months after sur-gery;2 patients needed walking aids due to the presence of osteoarthritis of the knee and calf muscular venous thrombosis was diagnosed in 3 cases. No complications were found in the other patients, such as infection, nonunion and fixation failure. According to the Harris hip score system, there were 14 cases of“excellent”,8 cases of“good”,2 cases of“fair”and1 pa-tient of“poor”.Conclusion The PFNA treatment can provide a good fixation for intertrochanteric fractures of incomplete lateral wall type, which allow patients to do exercise early and achieve an excellent initial outcome.

Objective To evaluate the effects of lentivirus-delivered short hairpin RNA (shRNA) targeting human papillomavirus 16 (HPV16) E7 gene on the expression of 4 kinds of DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs),including DNMT1,DNMT3A,DNMT3B and DNMT3L,in HPV16-positive cervical cancer cell line SiHa.Methods The recombinant plasmid containing HPV16 E7 gene-targeting shRNA was constructed firstly.Then,the BLOCK-iTTM lentiviral RNAi expression system kit was used to package the lentiviral vector,which was transfected into 293T cells.The lentivirus-containing supernatants were collected at 48 and 72 hours after transfection.The SiHa cells were divided into 3 groups to be cultured with lentiviral supernatant containing HPV16 E7 gene-targeting shRNA recombinant plasmids mixed with complete medium at a ratio of 1:1 (shRNA group),lentiviral supernatant containing empty plasmids mixed with complete medium at a ratio of 1:1 (negative control group),and complete medium alone (blank control group),respectively.Real-time fluorescence-based quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) was performed to measure mRNA expression of HPV16 E7 and 4 kinds of DNMTs in the above 3 groups at 0,48,96 hours after infection,and Western blot analysis to determine protein expression of the 4 DNMTs at 48,96 hours after infection.Results There were no significant differences in the mRNA expression of HPV16 E7 and the 4 DNMTs among the shRNA group,negative control group and blank control group at 0 hour after infection (all P ＞ 0.05).At 48,96 hours after infection,the mRNA expression of HPV16 E7 and the 4 DNMTs decreased significantly in the shRNA group compared with the negative control group and blank control group (all P ＜ 0.05),but did not differ between the negative control group and blank control group (all P ＞ 0.05).Additionally,E7,DNMT1,DNMT3A,DNMT3B and DNMT3L gene-silencing efficiencies in the shRNA group were 71.13％,50.53％,13.72％,46.27％ and 17.92％ at 48 hours,and 83.50％,74.2％,47.8％,64.7％ and 48.9％ at 96 hours after infection,respectively.Western blot analysis showed that the protein expression of the 4 DNMTs significantly decreased in the shRNA group compared with the negative control group and blank control group at 48,96 hours after infection (all P ＜ 0.01).Moreover,the protein expression of DNMT1,DNMT3A,DNMT3B and DNMT3L in the shRNA group gradually decreased over time,and was inhibited by 84％,37.2％,59.8％ and 49.3％ at 48 hours respectively,and by 73.1％,68.7％,55.5％ and 65.5％ at 96 hours after infection respectively.Conclusion Targeted silencing of E7 gene in HPV16-positive SiHa cells can interfere with the mRNA and protein expression of DNMT1,DNMT3A,DNMT3B and DNMT3L.
