Objective To explore if keratinocytes that stably maintain HPV11 genome can be obtained by transfection and selection methods. Methods Escherichia coil containing pBR322.HPV11 plasmid was cultured and amplified. Then the plasmid was extracted, purified and digested with BamH Ⅰ enzyme to release viral genome from the bacterial vector. After recovering from the low-melting point agarose gel by electrophoresis, the genome was self-circulated with T4 DNA ligase. The religated DNA was cotransfected with pTK-neo DNA into HaCaT keratinocytes using Lipofectamine reagent. After selection with G418 for 2 to 3 weeks, clonal and pooled cultures were expanded and analyzed. Fluorescent quantitative PCR (FQ-PCR) and nested reverse transcriptase PCR (nRT-PCR) were applied to detect HPV11 DNA and spliced HPV11 E1^E4 mRNA expression in the transfected cells. Results After the cotransfection of HPV11 genome into HaCaT keratinocytes and two-week selection,G418-resistant cell colonies were obtained with morphological features indistinguishable from normal HaCaT keratinocytes. As shown by FQ-PCR, HPV11 DNA was present in G418-selected HaCaT keratinocytes. The average viral DNA load capacity was 15.9±16.8 copies/cell in the primary culture of G418-selected HaCaT cells and 23.9±1.1 copies/cell in the third passage of the cells; there was no statistical difference between the two passages of cells (t=-0.822, P>0.05). nRT-PCR targeting HPV11 E1^E4 mRNA transcript produced a specific 628-bp fragment, which was shown by agarose gel electrophoresis. Conclusions Our data indicate that HPV11 genome can be successfully introduced into HaCaT keratinocytes by transfection and HPV11 DNA-positive cells can be obtained by G418 selection. Moreover, HPV11 DNA is still present in the third passage of transfected cells.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of compound carraghenates suppositories in the treatment of wounds after anal fissure operation. Methods:Eighty-eight cases of patients with anal fistula post-operation wounds were diagnosed from June 2011 to June 2014 and randomly divided into the observation group (n=44) and the control group (n=44). The control group was treated with the conventional treatment and the observation group was treated with external compound carraghenates suppositories additionally. The efficacy, average healing time, growing time of granulation tissue and removal time of necrotic tissue, pain disappear-ance time and wound edema disappearance time after the operation and the area of wound surface in the two groups were observed and compared. Results:After the 14-day treatment, the time of wound healing, granulation growth and cure in the observation group was shorter than that in the control group (P<0. 05). In the observation group, the total effective rate (93. 18%) was higher than that in the control group (77. 27%, P<0. 05). After the 7-day and 14-day treatment, the pain score and wound edema score in the observa-tion group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0. 05), and the wound area was significantly smaller than that in the control group (P<0. 05). Conclusion:The clinical efficacy of external compound carraghenates suppositories in the treatment of wounds after anal fissure operation is significant, safe and reliable.

Objective To investigate the effect of repeated hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning (HOP) on the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1a) and erythropoietin (EPO) following spinal ischemiareperfusion (I/R) in rats. Methods Forty-eight male SD rats weighing 250-300 g were randomly divided into 3 groups (n = 16 each): sham operation group (S group); I/R group and repeated HOP group (HOP group). The animals in HOP group were pretreated with O2 ( > 98 % ) at 2.5 ATA I h/d for 5 consecutive days at 24 h before spinal cord I/R. The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal pentobarbital sodium 35 mg/kg. Spinal cord ischemia was produced by cross-clamping of abdominal aorta distal to renal artery for 20 min in I/R and HOP groups. Hind-limb motor function was assessed and scored st 48 h of reperfusion. The animals were then sacrificed and the L5-7 segment of the spinal cord was removed for determination of the expression of HIF-1 α and EPO mRNA and protein and microscopic examination. Results Compared with group S, the hind-limb motor function scores and the number of normal motor neurons in the anterior horn of the spinal cord were significantly decreased, and the expression of HIF-1α and EPO mRNA and protein was up-regulated in I/R and HOP groups ( P < 0.05). Compared with group I/R, the hind-limb motor function scores and the number of normal motor neurons in the anterior horn of the spinal cord were significantly increased, and the expression of HIF-1α and EPO mRNA and protein was up-regulated in group HOP ( P < 0.05). The spinal cord injury was attenuated in group HOP compared with group I/R. Conclusion Repeated HOP can reduce the spinal cord I/R injury though up-regulating the expression of HIF1α and EPO in rats.

Objective To assess the effects of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and bipolar cord coagulation (BCC) on the prognosis and complication rate of complicated monochorionic twins.Methods A retrospective review was undertaken in 58 cases of complicated monochorionic twins treated with RFA or BCC at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat Sen University,from January 2008 to August 2013.Non-parametric Wilcoxon test,Chi-square test,Fisher exact test or multi-variant Logistic regression analysis were used for statistical analysis.Results Indications for selective termination in the 58 cases were:twin reversed arterial perfusion sequence in 12,severe twin to twin transfusion syndrome in 28,discordance of fetal anomalies in 10,selective intrauterine growth restriction in 7 and twin anemia-polycythemia sequence in 1.Forty-three cases were managed with BCC and 15 with RFA.Preterm labor was more common in the BCC group than in the RFA group [86.0%(37/43) vs 9/15,respectively; x2=4.598,P=0.032).Premature rupture of the membranes occurred in 48.8%(27/43) of the BCC group vs.4/15 of the RFA group (x2=2.229,P=0.135).The median procedure-todelivery time was 48 (1-150) days for the BCC group vs.101(14-138) days for the RFA group (Z=-2.245,P=0.025).Overall survival rate was 62.8%(27/43) in the BCC group vs 11/15 in the RFA group (x2=0.547,P=0.460),which was not significantly different.Neurodevelopmental delay was detected in two neonates in BCC group and in one neonate in RFA group.Logistic regression analysis showed that delivery before 28 gestational weeks was an independent risk factor for the poor prognosis of the co-twins (OR=192.720,95%CI:18.610-994.000,P < 0.01).Conclusion Compared with BCC,RFA does not improve the prognosis of complicated monochorionic twins significantly.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects of repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) at high and low frequency for the rigidity and tremors of Parkinson's disease (PD).Methods Sixty-nine patients with PD received rTMS at 5 Hz or 0.5 Hz.The efficacy was assessed using the unified Parkinson's disease rating scale (UPDRS),motor function tests and motor evoked potentials (MEPs).Results Thirty-two patients with rigidity from PD received 5 Hz rTMS therapy,and their UPDRS total scores decreased significantly.Their motor function test results improved significantly and their MEP relaxed motor thresholds were significantly elevated.Thirtyseven patients with tremors from PD received 0.5 Hz rTMS therapy,and their UPDRS total scores were significantly decreased.Their motor function test results improved significantly and their MEP relaxed motor thresholds were significantly elevated.Conclusion High frequency rTMS may improve the symptoms of patients with PD rigidity and low frequency rTMS may improve the symptoms of patients with PD tremors.

Urinary excretions of transforming grow th factor-? 1 (TGF-? 1), laminin (LN) and type Ⅳ collagen were determined i n 182 type 2 diabetic patients. Urinary excretions of TGF-? 1, LN and type Ⅳ collagen were increased in type 2 diabetic patients, and these findings were fa irly well correlated with severity of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Urinary TGF-? 1 seems to be the early index of DN, urinary LN and type Ⅳ collagen appear to be the indices of DN severity.
