Objective To quantitatively examine the relationship between xeroderma pigmentosum complementation C group (XPC)rs2228000 (C /T)polymorphism and the susceptibility of breast cancer. Methods The relevant case-control studies published up to December 2015 which investigated XPC rs2228000 (C /T)polymorphism and breast cancer risk were identified by searching PubMed,Cochrane Library,Chinese Biomedical Literature Data,Wanfang Database,China National Knowledge Infrastructure and VIP Database. Meta-analysis was conducted using STATA 12.0 software and odds ratio (OR)with its 95%CI were estimated. Results A total of 8 researches involving 9 case-control studies (3 850 breast cancer cases and 5 047 healthy controls) were included.The Meta-analysis showed that there was statistical association between XPC rs2228000(C /T)variance and breast cancer risk in the homozygous model (TT vs.CC:OR =1.28,95%CI:1.08-1.52,Z =2.80,P =0.005)and recessive model (TT vs.TC +CC:OR =1.23,95%CI:1.05-1.43, Z =2.64,P =0.008),but not in the allele model,heterozygote model and dominant model.In the subgroup of ethnicity and genotyping methods,the different significant correlation was existed between them under Asian and PCR-RFLP in genetic models (T vs.C:OR =1.21,95%CI:1.05-1.40,Z =2.63,P =0.009;TT vs. CC:OR =1.55,95%CI:1.13-2.13,Z =2.70,P =0.007;TT +TC vs.CC:OR =1.26,95%CI:1.02-1.55,Z =2.19,P =0.028;TT vs.TC +CC:OR =1.39,95%CI:1.04-1.87,Z =2.23,P =0.026).We also found significant association between them in subgroup of population-based controls in the homozygous model (TT vs.CC:OR =1.27,95%CI:1.02-1.57,Z =2.16,P =0.031).Conclusion XPC rs2228000 (C /T)polymorphism may be associated with the susceptibility of breast cancer,especially in Asian,and gene-type TT may increase the risk of breast cancer.

Objective To construct the eukaryotic expression vector pEGFP-N1/IL-37b and analyze the expression of IL-37 gene in THP-1 cells. Methods Total RNA was extracted from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells ( PB-MCs) and the coding region of IL-37b gene was amplified by RT-qPCR. Then, the gene was cloned into pEGFP-N1 eu-karyotic expression vector. After transfected the recombinant plasmid into THP-1 cells, the expression of IL-37 was detec-ted by RT-qPCR and Western blot. Results Double restriction enzyme digestion and gene sequencing showed that IL-37b gene was correctly inserted into the eukaryotic expression vector pEGFP-N1. RT-qPCR and Western blot showed that the IL-37 expression level was increased significantly (P<0. 01) after transfection in THP-1 cells. Conclusions We successful-ly constructed a novel anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-37 eukaryotic expression vector pEGFP-N1/IL-37b, which lays a foun-dation for further study on IL-37 functions and its association with related diseases.

Cultured human testicular tissues were grouped as follows:control group,group tracted with single dosc of human chorionic gonadotropin(hCG), group treated with double doses of hCG given at three-day-interval and group treated with multiple doses of hCG. The dose of hCG was 20kIU/L,and it was added into the medium and incubated for 24 hours. Testosterone was measured by RIA. The result indicated that all three hCG-treated groups had a testosterone secretion peak at 48-72 hours after the first dose of hCG. After the second hCG treatment given in three days interval the testosterone increased again. but its maximal rise reduced. Multiple doses of hCG given successively inhibited the response of Leydig cells to hCG stimulation.

Objective To study the role of transcranial Doppler (TCD) in early diagnosis of posttraumatic vasospasm in traumatic brain injury patients and in treatment effect monitoring of hyperxia liquid for this condition. Methods Seventy-four patients with posttraumatic vasospasm were divided into two groups. The control group (n=42) received the general treatment, while the treatment group (n=32) received the treatment of hyperxia liquid in addition to the general treatment. Their cerebral blood flow velocities of bilateral MCA and extra-cranial portion of ICA were monitored regularly by TCD, starting from the first day after head injury until 14th day. The changes of physiological and neurofunctional parameters in both groups were compared, including cerebral vasospasm(CVS),arterial blood oxygen pressure (PaO 2),arterial blood oxygen saturation (SaO 2), the Glasgow coma scale (GCS)and the ultimate effects of treatment as indicated by Glasgow outcome scale(GOS). Results Cerebral vasospasm occurred in 1 to 3 days and peaked to the 3 to 7 days after injury, then markedly relieved at 14 days after injury. After infusion of hyperxia liquid, the PaO 2 and SaO 2 in the treatment group were significantly higher than those of the control group. The degree of vasospasm was significantly higher in the control group than that in the treatment group. GCS and GOS of the treatment group were significantly higher than those of the control group. Poor outcome was common in patients with severe cerebral vasospasm. Conclusion Early posttraumatic vasospasm can be detected by TCD. High-oxygen liquid is effective for treating posttraumatic vasospasm.
