Objective:To investigate the regulatory effect of dissociative intracytoplasmic domain of leukemia inhibitory factor receptor ? (LIFR?) subunit on the growth of HL-60 cells and the related signal transduction mechanism. Methods: The constructed recombinant plasmids pcDNA3.0-190CT2+3 and cDNA3.0-190CT3 were identified and transfected into HL-60 cells with liposome FuGene-6. Then the cells were cultured in a medium containing G-418 and the positive clones were selected. Immunohistochemical method and Western blotting were used to detect the expression of the target protein in HL-60 cells and the growth curve of the cells was plotted. The expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and the phosphorylation levels of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (Stat3) were assayed by Western blotting. Results: Western blotting detected the band of target protein and the cell line stably expressing the target protein was obtained. Compared with that of the wild type group, the cell sizes in 190CT2+3 and 190CT3 group were enlarged. The ratio of leaf cell number to the total cell number increased and the cell proliferation was slowed down. We also found that the expression of PCNA was decreased and the phosphorylation level of STAT3 was increased. Conclusion: The dissociative intracytoplasmic domain of LIFR? subunit can accelerate the differentiation of HL-60 cells, inhibit the proliferation of HL-60 cells, and activate signal molecule STAT3.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the characters of urinary noscomial infection in intensive care unit(ICU)of our hospital in order to reduce its incidence. METHODS The 661 patients in ICU of our hospital from Jan 2005 to Jun 2006 were analyzed,and in which 63 nosocomial urinary infection patients(9.53%) were found.We analyzed the 63 patients retrospectively. RESULTS Nosocomial urinary infection occurred in 9.53% patients admitted to the ICU.Nosocomial urinary infection in ICU was correlated with ages,using of antibiotics and hormones,duration of catheterization and APACHEⅡ score,but not with gender.The most prevalent pathogens of nosocomial urinary infection in ICU were fungi(40.66%),gram-negative bacteria(31.87%) and Gram-positive bacteria(27.46%).The clinical manifestation of nosocomial urinary infection in ICU was atypical. CONCLUSIONS Nosocomial urinary infection in ICU has its own characters which clinicians should pay more attention to.To reduce its incidence,we should avoid abusing of antibiotics and hormones,and make the duration of catheterization as short as possible.

Objective To examine the expression of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1(ABCA1)in eukaryotie cells and the effect of arsenic resistance after the transfection of eukaryotic expression vector containing ABCA1 gene.Methods HeLa cells were transfected with the recombinant plasmid by lipofectaonmine 2000 (recombinant plasmid group),empty plasmid and untransfected HeLa cell as the control group.The level of the mRNA was examined by real-time PCR,and the expression of ABCA1 protein wag examined by Western blot,the change of cell survival rate was examined by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT)after exposure in a series of arsenic [0(contro1),4,8,16,32,64,128 μmol/L]for 48 hours.Results Expression level of ABCA1 mRNA in recombinant plasmid,empty plasmid and untransfeeted groups was(2.09±0.08)×10-4,(0.09±0.02)×10-4,(0.08±0.02)×10-4,there was a significant difference between the groups(F=1499.23,P<0.01).The level of ABCA1 mRNA in recombinant plasmid group was higher than empty plasmid and untransfected group(all P<0.01).Western blot showed that specific protein straps existed at 254×103 in all the three groups,with a similar size to the ABCA1 protein.The amount of the recombinant plasmid group was higher than the other two groups.MTT shows that arsenic concentration at 4,8,16,32,64,128 μmol/L,the survival rates of recombinant plasmid group was(94.8±0.9)%,(86.5 ± 2.6)%, (77.8 ± 2.0)%, (56.0 ± 2.0)%, (23.8 ± 1.7)%, (18.6 ± 0.6)%, higher than that of empty plasmid group[ (85.3 ± 1.1)%, (78.7 ± 0.6)%, (67.8 ± 2.4)%, (43.2 ± 1.5)%, (14.5 ± 1.3)%, (8.0 ± 0.4)%], the difference of survival rate had a statistical signifieance(t = 18.985,6.689,5.922,9.504,9.481,32.634, all P < 0.01). Conclusions ABCA1 protein is over expressed in HeLa cells after transfect ABCA1 gene. ABCA1 protein increases resistance of arsenic in HeLa cells.

AIM: To explore the effect of lysophosphatidylcholine(LPC) on cholesterol efflux from macrophage foam cells, and to offer experimental evidence for research on prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis.METHODS: Peritoneal macrophages and LDL were seperated from mice and serum of healthy volunteers, respectively. The foam cells were derived from macrophages in the presence of Acylated LDL (AcLDL). Cholesterol efflux from cells and LDH activity were measured by enzymetic fluorometry and LDH kit, respectively.RESULTS: After incubated with LPC for 24 hours, cholesterol efflux from macrophage foam cells increased significantly compared to control, and cellular cholesterol was lower than that in control group. At the same time, medium LDH activity of LPC group was not increased obviously. CONCLUSION: Within the dosage of 10-80 ?mol/L, LPC can promote cholesterol efflux from macrophage foam cells in a dose-dependent manner, and this effect has nothing to do with cytotoxity of LPC.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and application of histopathology diagnosis of endometrial tissues obtained by endometrial cell collector (Jingyou, SAP-1). Methods One hundred and ninety-three patients whose endometrial lesions should be excluded were selected. First, endometrial tissue were obtained from the patients by Jingyou, then they underwent comprehensive curettage under hysteroscopy. The histopathology diagnosis was performed respectively. The specimen satisfaction rate and diagnostic accuracy was analyzed and compared. Results The specimen satisfaction rate of curettage under hysteroscopy was 95.85%(185/193). The specimens of 8 cases were not satisfied because the tissues were not enough. The specimen satisfaction rate of Jingyou was 82.38% (159/193). The specimens of 34 cases were not satisfied, among whom in 10 cases scratches did not throughout the whole palace antrum, and in 24 cases tissues quality were poor. The endometrial thickness in unsatisfactory specimen by Jinyou was significantly thinner than that in satisfactory specimen:(0.64 ± 0.18) cm vs. (0.97 ± 0.43) cm, and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). The diagnostic accordance rate between Jingyou and curettage under hysteroscopy was 79.87%(127/159). The sensitivity of Jingyou from high to low was 94.19% (81/86) in normal menstrual endometrial, 7/10 in endometrial carcinoma/ atypical hyperplasia, 67.86%(38/56) in endometrial hyperplasia and 1/7 in endometrial polyps. Missed diagnosis of jingyou inluded 2 cases of endometrial carcinoma and 4 cases of endometrial atypical hyperplasia. The misdiagnosed rate of high grade endometrial lesions was 6/16, and the patients were misdiagnosed because the tissues were not enough. Four cases of endometrial atypical hyperplasia had underwent conservative treatment of repeated curettage. Conclusions Application of Jingyou can obtain micro endometrial tissues, and the accordance rate of histopathology diagnosis is high with curettage under hysteroscopy. When the collector makes a comprehensive collection to the uterine cavity specimen, it can accurately screen endometrial carcinoma and atypical hyperplasia. The patients who have endometrial atypical hyperplasia and receive conservative treatment and curettage repeatedly curettage, thin endometrium and ultrasonic highly suspected endometrial polyps, are not recommend to use Jingyou to obtain specimen. When the specimen is not satisfied using the collector, additional hysteroscopy should be performed to avoid misdiagnosis of high grade endometrial lesions.
