Objective To observe the change of intracellular rhodamine 123 distribution model in bladder cancer sensitive cells(T24) and resistant cells(TADM),and to explore the cause of the change and its relation with multidrug resistance(MDR). Methods T24 and TAMD cells were cultured together with rhodamine 123 for a certain period.The intracellular distribution and intensity of fluorescence were detected by interactive laser cytometer(ILC). Results In T24 cells,rhodamine 123 was located mainly in the perinuclear membrane area,and in TADM cells,rhodamine 123 was concentrated mainly at the two poles of nucleus.After the extracellular rhodamine 123 was washed,in T24 cells ,the intracellular fluorescent intensity decayed slowly.It took more than 40 minutes for T24 cells to eliminate intracellular rhodamine 123 completely.By contrast,in TADM cells, the intracellular fluorescent intensity decayed rapidly.It took only 15 minutes for TADM cells to eliminate intracellular rhodamine 123 completely. Conclusions (1)Intracellular rhodamine 123 was rapidly pumped out,which is the main cause of MDR in TADM;(2)The intracellular rhodamine 123 distribution model in TADM differ from that in T24,which may be another cause of its MDR phenotype.

Objective To observe the inhibitory effect of endogenous angiogenesis inhibitor endostatin on the growth of bladder transitional cell carcinoma. Methods Recombinant mouse endostatin expressed by E. coli was purified with Ni NTA affinity chromatography and was administrated into mice bearing T739 bladder transitional cell carcinoma via subcutaneous injection at the dose of 20 mg?kg -1 ?d -1 . The tumor growth and angiogenesis were observed 10 days later. Results Tumors in mice treated with endostatin grew slowly and the inhibition rate reached 81 4%. Microvessel density(MVD) of tumor in treated group was significantly lower than that in the control group( P

Objective To observe the effects of E cadherin (ECD) on bladder cancer cell growth and invasion using gene transfection technique. Methods Human E cadherin gene was transfected into a highly invasive and metastatic bladder cancer cell line Ts3L. Cell growth curves, clone formation rate, in vitro tumor cell infiltrating ability, and cell cycle distribution were determined, respectively. Results Speed of bladder cancer cell growth decreased significantly to 35 7% after ECD gene transfection. Apoptotic cell rate in ECD transfected cells was markedly higher than that of the control cells. The percentage of superploid cells in Ts3L/ECD cells was significantly reduced than that in the control cells. Clone formation rate of ECD transfected cells, detected by soft agarose gel clone formation test, was significantly decreased as compared with that of the control cells ( P

Objective To construct prokaryotic expression systems of genes of intact rotavirus non -structural protein 4 (NSP4) and 86 to 175 amino acid peptide of NSP4 (NSP486-175) and to identify the bio-activities of the recombinant expression products .Methods Colloidal gold assay was used to screen group A rotavirus antibody-positive stools , from which the viral RNA was extracted and transcribed into cDNA .Then NSP4 gene and NSP486-175 gene were amplified by PCR and inserted into pET-28a(+) vector to construct the prokaryotic expression plasmids of pET-28a(+)-NSP4 and pET-28a(+)-NSP486-175 , which were transformed into E.coli BL21( DE3) and inducted by IPTG .The expressed NSP486-175 protein was purified by Ni-NTA af-finity chromatography and examined by Western blot .Fluo-3 AM ester was used to label intracellular free Ca2+( [ Ca2+] i) in Caco-2 cells and laser scanning confocal microscopy was performed to detect the effect of NSP486-175 protein on [Ca2+]i.Results DNA sequencing indicated that NSP4 gene and NSP486-175 gene were consistent with the corresponding sequences in NCBI .The intact NSP4 had difficulty in expressing in E.coli. NSP486-175 protein mainly existed in soluble form with a relative molecular weight of 10×103 .Fluorescence in-tensity and distribution were changed by exogenous addition of NSP 486-175 to cultured Caco-2 cells.Conclu-sion The expression vectors of pET-28a(+)-NSP4 and pET-28a(+)-NSP486-175 were successfully construc-ted and the target protein could induce [Ca2+]i imbalance.This phenomenon preliminarily indicates that the prokaryotic expressed NSP486-175 protein has biological activity and can be further used to elucidate rotavirus pathogenic mechanisms and perform vaccine research .

Objective To investigate the Demodex infection status and influencing factors in medical students in Wuhu City. Methods The mite specimens were collected by the cellophane tape method,and the influencing factors were investigated through the questionnaires. Results A total of 316 medical students were surveyed,117 students were infected with Demodex mite,and the total infection rate was 37.03%. There was no significant difference between the male and female in the infection rate( χ2 = 0.00,P > 0.05). Of the 117 infected cases,the infection rate of simple Demodex folliculorum was 51.28%,the infec-tion rate of simple Demodex brevis was 24.79%,and the rate of mixed infections was 23.93%. The rate of the mild infection (83.76%)was significantly higher than that of the moderate infection(12.82 %)and that of the severe infection(3.42%). The infection rate in the forehead was the highest(29.41%). Among the students with the oily skin,the infection rate of Demodex mite was related to sex. The infection rate of simple Demodex brevis in the male(3.70%)was lower than that in the female (16.42%)( χ2 = 6.92,P < 0.05),while the rate of the mixed infections in the male(17.28%)was higher than that in the fe-male(4.48%)( χ2 = 5.91,P < 0.05). The infection rate of facial skin with symptoms(51.80%)was higher than that of normal facial skin(33.05%)( χ2 = 9.14,P < 0.01). There was no significant difference between the infection rate of Demodex mite and the living habits and other factors. Conclusions There is some infection of Demodex in the medical students. The infection rate of facial skin with symptoms is higher than that of the normal facial skin. So we should strengthen the prevention and treat-ment of Demodex infection in medical students.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of fetal intelligent navigation echocardiography (5D Heart) in the display of key diagnostic elements in basic fetal echocardiographic views.Methods Using volume probe,3D volume datasets of the 209 normal singleton fetuses in the second and third trimesters were acquired from a four-chamber view.After processing the datasets by using 5D Heart,9 cardiac diagnostic planes were acquired and then the image qualities of key diagnosis elements of the heart and great vessels were graded by 3 doctors with different experiences of performing fetal echocardiography.Results Two hundred and sixty-two volume datasets were acquired from 209 normal fetuses,including 53 volume datasets collected when cardiac apex was in different directions,satisfactory datasets failed to be acquired in 27 fetuses because of the maternal obesity,the artifacts of fetal movement,or other influencing factors.Two hundred and thirty-one volume datasets of 182 fetuses could be used for 5D Heart analyzing and displaying,and the displaying rate of 9 standard diagnostic views was up to 88.2％.No significant difference was found when comparing the grading results of one observer in different periods of time,the grading results between two experienced doctors and the grading results among the experienced doctor and one relatively inexperienced doctor (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions 5D Heart has high reliability and repeatability in obtaining fetal echocardiographic diagnosis views and displaying fetal elemental diagnostic information.
