Basic & Clinical Medicine 2017;37(7):994-999
Objective To test the status of Keap-1/Nrf-2 pathway in cisplatin-resistant Skov3/DDP cells,and the contribution of these molecular in cisplatin (cis-pt) resistance.Methods Skov3/DDP was divided into four groups:blank,cis-pt,Keap-1 up-regulated and Keap-1 plus cis-pt.Keap-1 was up-regulated in Skov3/DDP cells by trans-faction with pFlag-CMV-Keap-1 plasmid which was validated by expression of flag and increase of Keap-1 level using Western blot.The effect of Keap-1 up-regulation on Nrf-2 re-distribution was analyzed by Western blot.FCM was employed to detect apoptosis.ROS level was measured by DHE staining.Results The expression of Keap-1 was decreased obviously in Skov3/DDP cells compared with Skov3 cells (P<0.05),Nrf-2 in Skov3/DDP cells detected mainly in nucleus.Then,the Keap-1 was successfully up-regulated (3.5 fold) by exogenous expression of pFlag-CMV-Keap-1 plasmid,as a result,nucleus portion of Nrf-2 was significantly reduced (0.2 fold).Next,the FCM results showed significant increase of apoptosis in Keap-1 up-regulated Skov3/DDP cells after cis-pt administration (P<0.05).Finally,ROS level was significantly raised in Skov3/DDP cells treated with cis-pt plus Keap-1 up-regulation.Conclusions Up-regulation of Keap-1 reduced the nucleus portion of Nrf-2 and reverses cisplatin resistance in Skov3/DDP cells.

Objective To retrospectively analyze whether the kyphosis exists after removal of the internal fixators for thoracolumabar vertebrae fractures. Methods A total of 18 patients (35-68 years old) with thoracolumabar vertebrae fractures (T11-L2 ) were fixed with short segment pedical screw. The fixators were removed one year postoperatively to observe the changes of the Cobb' s angle and trauma vertebra'height. Results All the patients were followed up for 6-24 months ( average 18.7 months),which showed no intraoperative or postoperative complication, breakage or loosening of the screws. Compared to the Cobb angle and the vertebra height before removal of the internal fixators, the average loss of the Cobb angle was 0.7° and that of the vertebra height was 0.8 mm six months after removal of the fixators, 1.9° and 1.1 mm respectively one year after removal of the fixators, and 2.4° and 1.3 mm respectively two years after removal of the fixators in 16 patients without osteoporosis (P >0. 05). Among two patients with osteoporosis, the average loss of the Cobb angle and the vertebra height was 6° and 8°respectively and 3 mm and 5 mm respectively six months after removal of the fixators; 13° and 17° respectively and 5 mm and 7 mm respectively one year after removal of the fixators; 15° and 19° respectively and 6 mm and 7.5 mm two years after removal of the fixators. Conclusions After the internal fixation for thoracolumbar vertebrae burst fractures, kyphosis develops mildly, with insignificant change of the vertebral height. While the kyphosis becomes worse after removal of the fixators for thoracolumbar vertebrae burst fractures in patients with osteoporosis.

It has been shown that Spirulina platensis can regulate imminological functions.We report here that crude extract and purified components (phycocyanin and polysaccharide) from Spirulina platensis can induce secretion of IL 2 in splenocyte of BALB/C mice by means of MTT method.In the present study,we showed that all experimental components can't enhance proliferation of CTLL which was used in MTT method,but induce IL 2 secretion in splenocyte of BALB/C mice in three different concentration (0.01,0.1,1 g?L -1 ).Indeed the purified components especially phycocyanin part showed stronger IL 2 inducing activity than the crude one.IL 2 level was grow up when the incubation time of splenocyte and Spirulina platensis increased.In the concentration of 1 g?L -1 ,detected Spirulina platensis in our study assist IL 2 inducing of ConA (2mg?L -1 ) in splenocyte of BALB/C mice.

Objective To investigate the immunogenicity of group A plus group C meningococeal glycoconjugate vaccine,namely dosage,immune memory and compatibility. Methods The mice were injected with group A plus group C meningococcal glycoconjugate vaccine with different dosages. Blood samples were taken on the 14th day after the last injection for testing the antibodies against polysaccharide A and C. After the optimal immunization dosage had been decided,the mice were inoculated separately with the monovalent group A and the monovalent group C and the bivalent group A plus group C glycoconjugate vaccine with one,two or three injections for observation of the effectiveness of different injections and the compatibilities. Results The dosage of 1.25 μg of each polysaccharide of group A and group C in bivalent glycoconjugate vaccine appears to be immunologically optimal to vaccinate the mice. Immunological memory could be induced in mice inoculated with the glycoconjugate vaccine,and the antigenic immunogenicity of the group A component and group C component in the formulation of group A plus group C meningococcal glycoconjugate vaccine was not affected. Conclusion Group A plus group C meningococcal glycoconjugate vaccine have good immunogenicity,immune memory and compatibility.

Objective To investigate the expressions of survivin, cyclooxyenase-2 (COX-2) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and their relationship with angiogenesis in condyloma acuminatum (CA) tissues. Methods Immunohistochemistry using PowerVision staining kit was performed to detect the expression of survivin, COX-2 and VEGF protein in 60 CA tissue samples from patients and 21 normal skin samples from the foreskin of human controls. At the same time, the microvessel density was determined in CA tissues by staining blood vessel endothelium with anti-CD105 monoclonal antibody. Results The positivity rate of survivin and COX-2 expression was 56.67% and 63.33%, in CA tissues, 9.52% and 0 in normal skin tissues, respectively. There was a significant difference between the two groups of tissue samples in the positivity rate and intensity of survivin and COX-2 expression (all P < 0.05). VEGF was expressed in all of the CA tissues and normal skin tissues, while the intensity of VEGF expression was statistically different between the two groups of tissue samples (P < 0.05). The MVD was 16.38 ± 5.46 and 0.62 ± 0.44 in CA tissues and normal skin tissues, respectively (P < 0.05). There was a significant positive correlation between the expressions of survivin, COX-2 and VEGF, as well as between MVD and the expressions of survivin and COX-2 in CA tissues. Conclusion The expression levels of survivin, COX-2 and VEGF are significantly higher in CA tissues than in normal skin tissues.

Objective To explore the effect of WPBL teaching method in microbiologicla test teach-ing. Method A total of 120 students majoring in clinical laboratory medicine were divided into the experi-mental group (WPBL teaching) and the control group (the traditional teaching) with 60 in each group in 2015. Results Questionnaire survey showed that in the experimental group, 92.6%of the students believe that WPBL teaching method can stimulate learning interest and promote student self-directed learning, 97.3% believe that WPBL teaching method can improve the ability to analyze and solve problems, 94.7%believe that WPBL teaching method can strengthen teamwork and promote learning exchanges, and 99.6%hold that WPBL teaching method can help them recognize the importance of microbiological tests in the di-agnosis of clinical infectious diseases. The final scores and the usual performance of the experimental group were (75.23 ±11.21) and (24.15 ±1.71), respectively, while those of the control group were (63.42 ±8.21) and (20.26±1.48), respectively. The differences were statistically significant (P<0.005). Conclusions PBL teaching method can fully integrate teaching resources, stimulate students' enthusiasm and initiative, improve students' comprehensive qualities, including the ability to analyze and solve problems, teamwork ability and critical thinking ability, and improve the quality and effect of microbiological test teaching.
