1.Detection methods and clinical significance of chimerism after hematopoieticstem cell transplation
Journal of International Oncology 2010;37(8):626-629
Sequential monitoring of chimerism after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is important for disease prognosis, improving transplantation success rate, and reducing relapses of the original diseases. The application of molecular genetic markers in combination with quantitative PCR to the assessment of chimerism,in particularly the dynamic quantitative analysis of lineage-specific chimerism, can provide important guidance for clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate the clinical application and adverse events of vinpocetine injection. Methods:The application of vinpocetine injection in the patients in neurology department during December 2013 and December 2014 in a hospital was statistically analyzed. The adverse reactions of the injection reported in the professional literatures and relevant documents were also retrieved and statistically analyzed. Results:The infusion concentration of vinpocetine injection for 363 patients was more than 0. 06 mg·ml -1 ,and 3 cases of adverse reactions appeared with the main symptoms of rash and drug fever. Among 28 published literatures,19 articles were with the infusion concentration of vinpocetine injection above 0. 06 mg·ml-1 and 8 articles reported adverse reactions in varying degrees. Conclusion:Clinicians should pay attention to the instructions in the clinical course of medication in order to improve the safe and rational use of drugs.

Objective To investigate the relationship between nitric oxide and contractile disfunction of junctional zone of smooth muscle by detecting the expression of nitric oxide in uterine junctional zone in patients with adenomyosis.Methods From February 2012 to July 2012,23 patients with adenomyosis undergoing hysterectomy as adenomyosis group matched as 16 patients with cervical carcinoma or ovarian cancer were enrolled as control group in Center of Minimally Invasive Gynecology,Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital.Location of nitric oxide synthase (inducible NOS and endothelial NOS) in uterine junctional zone was analyzed by immunohistochemistry.Smooth muscle cells of junctional zone were cultured and cellular mRNA levels of nitric oxide synthase were detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction.Furthermore,concentration of nitrites in lysates of fresh junctional zone tissues and cultured cells were determined by Griess reaction.Results (1) The expression of nitric oxide synthase proteins in smooth muscle cells of junctional zone tissues:the staining of iNOS was intensive in smooth muscle cells of junctional zone in patients with adenomyosis,while staining of eNOS was scant.Both staining of iNOS and eNOS were not observed in control group.(2) The expression of NOS genes in cultured smooth muscle cells from adenomyosis:mRNA level of iNOS was elevated by 1.5 times (P <0.01) while eNOS level was reduced by 2.6 times when compared with those in control groups (P < 0.05).(3) Nitrites concentration in lysates of junctional zone tissues and cultured cells:concentrations of nitrites in lysates of 100 mg tissues were respectively (37 ± 8) μmol/L and (28 ± 5) μmol/L in adenomyosis and control group (P > 0.05).While concentrations of nitrites in 1 × 106 cells were respectively (11.8 ± 0.6) μmol/L and (10.8 ± 1.5) μmol/Lin adenomyosis and control group,which did not reach statistical difference (P > 0.05).Conclusion Upregulation of nitric oxide might be associated with contractile disfunction of smooth muscle cells in uterine junctional zone of patients with adenomyosis.

In this paper,a slight halophilic alkaliphile swain,Alkalibacterium sp.F26,which produced high level of intracellular CAT observed in previous research,was selected as a model microbial to explain the responses of this bacterium to oxidative stress.The results indicated that Alkalibacterium sp.F26 had obvious responses to higher concentration (>1 mmol/L) of H2O2 than that to lower H2O2 (<1 mmol/L) challenge from the aspects of defensive enzyme synthesis and cofactors level variation.As for catalase production,the activity increased up to 106.54 U/rag protein which was 1.76 fold of the control when cells were challenged by 3 mmol/L H2O2,but its activity only was 1.13 fold when H2P2 was 100 μmol/L.As far as energy state was concerned,ATP production and NAD+ generation were significantly inhibited from 20.55 μmol/L to 17.80 μmol/L and 69.89 μmol/L to 31.77 μmol/L,respectively,leading to the drop of energy charge from 0.77 to 0.68 and the increase of the portion of NADH/NAD+ from 0.08 to 0.41 in the former case.However,these effects were less distinct under lower concentration of H2O2.Except of the condition of 100 μmol/L H2O2,under which the activation of defensive mechanism resulted in an increase of ATE the level of ATP dropped from 22.69 μmol/L of the control to 22.38 μmol/L and 13.70 μmol/L when challenged by 50 μmol/L and 500 μmol/L H2O2.Besides,the concentration of NADH fluctuated and the NAD+ gradually reduced when H2O2 below 1 mmol/L.

Objective To investigate the expression of RhoA and Rho kinase in junctional zone (JZ) of adenomyosis and normal myometrium and explore its relationship with severity of dysmenorrheal.Methods From Mar.to Dec.2012,32 cases with adenomyosis undergoing hysterectomy were enrolled as adenomyosis group including 18 cases with proliferative endometrium and 14 cases with secretory endometrium matched with 29 cases with hysterectomy due to cervical disease and ovarian tumor as control group including 12 cases with proliferative endometrium and 17 cases with secretory endometrium in Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University.JZ smooth muscle cells were isolated and cultured immediately after the operation.The expression of mRNA and protein of RhoA and ROCK Ⅰ in JZ in two groups were measured by real-time fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR and western blot.Results (1) The mRNA expression of RhoA and ROCK Ⅰ in JZ of adenomyosis group did not show cyclic change.In proliferative phase,the expression of RhoA and ROCK Ⅰ (1.41 ±0.16,1.05 ±0.15) was not significantly higher than that in secretory phase (1.17 ± 0.25,0.98 ± 0.10) (P > 0.05).While JZ in control group,it showed obviously cyclic change.The expression level of them in proliferative phase(0.93 ±0.10,1.00 ± 0.18) was significantly higher than that in secretory phase (0.48 ± 0.03,0.55 ± 0.05) (P <0.05) ; It also showed that expressions of RhoA and ROCK Ⅰ in adenomysis group were significant higher than those in the control (P < 0.05).(2) The mRNA and protein expression of RhoA and ROCK Ⅰ was positively correlated in each of two groups (r =0.48,P < 0.01 ; r =0.67,P < 0.01).(3) The expression of RhoA and ROCK Ⅰ were 1.66 ±0.19,1.32 ±0.11 in severe dysmenorrheal,1.28 ±0.12,1.09 ±0.08 in moderate dysmenorrheal and 0.93 ± 0.09,0.81 ± 0.06 in mild dysmenorrheal,it all reached statistical difference when compared the other group.(All P < 0.05).Conclusions The expressions of RhoA and ROCK Ⅰ in JZ in adenomyosis group were higher than those in control group,and positively correlated with the severity of dysmenorrheal in adenomysis group,but it does not change with the menstrual cycle.High expression of RhoA and ROCK Ⅰ might be involved in abnormal contraction of uterine myometrium and correlated with the dysmenorrheal in adenomysis.

Objective To investigate the influence of arsenic trioxide (AS2 O3 )in the vasculogenic mimicry (VM ) of HepG2 cells, and to preliminary clarify the possible mechanism of inhibition of AS2 O3 on the VM. Methods Themean inhibitory concentration (IC50 )of AS2 O3 72 h after treatment of HepG2 cells was calculated by CCK-8 assay.The HepG2 cells were cultured on 3-D Matrigel and randomly divided into control group, 1/2 IC50 AS2 O3 group and IC50 AS2 O3 group.IPP software was used to calculate the number,length and area of VM,and the expression levels of VM-related proteins VE-cadherin and MMP-2, apoptotic-related protein caspase-3 and proliferation-related protein PCNA were detected by Western blotting method.Results The IC50 of AS2 O3 was 10μmol·L-1 72 h after treatment of HepG2 cells.The number,length and area of VM in 1/2 IC50 and IC50 AS2 O3 groups were significantly lower than those in control group (P<0.01);the number,length and area of VM in IC50 AS2 O3 group were also lower than those in 1/2 IC50 AS2 O3 group (P<0.05).Compared with control group,the expression levels of VE-cadherin and MMP-2 in 1/2 IC50 and IC50 AS2 O3 groups were decreased (P<0.05),and the expression levels of caspase-3 and PCNA had no significant change (P>0.05).Conclusion AS2 O3 can inhibit the forming of VM of HepG2 cells,which indicated that its mechanism may be related to inhibiting the expressions of VE-cadherin and MMP-2 .
