Objective To evaluate the possible causes of misdiagnosis of minimal breast carcinoma (MBC). Meth-ods The possible causes of misdiagnosis of 90 cases of MBC confirmed by pathology were retrospective analyzed. Accord-ing to the maximum diameter of the lesion, 90 cases were divided into 0.5-1.0 cm group (n=55) and≤0.5 cm group (n=35). And these two groups were subdivided into correct and misdiagnosed groups. The two-dimensional ultrasound findings were observed by using SIEMENZ S2000, GE vivid7 and GE vivid9 color Doppler ultrasound instruments, and reasons of misdiag-nosis were analyzed. Results There were 32 cases were misdiagnosed in 90 patients with MBC. There was significant differ-ence in boundary of misdiagnosis between diameter 0.5-1.0 cm group and≤0.5 cm group. There were significant differences in boundary and calcification between misdiagnosed group and correct group in diameter 0.5-1.0 cm group (P<0.05). There were also significant differences in A/T ratio and accompanying by multiple benign nodules between misdiagnosed group and correct group in diameter≤0.5 cm group (P<0.05). Conclusion The misdiagnosis in MBC is because of different lesion sizes. The misdiagnosis happens in the maximum diameter of the lesions between 0.5-1.0 cm that showed manifestation of sharp edges, no micro-calcification in sonographic features of benign. The misdiagnosis happens in maximum diameter of le-sions≤0.5 cm that manifested as the aspect A/T ratio<1 and characterized by multiple nodules.

In this study,a panel of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus(PRRSV),named as 8C9 and4B4,were produced by fusing SP2/0 myeloma cells and spleen cells of BALB/c mice immunized with the PRRSV (TCID50=5.5),screened by the indirect ELISA and subjected to several limiting dilutions.mAbs were then identified by biological characterization.Among the two fusion cell strains,8C9 belonged to the IgG1 subclass and 4B4 belonged to the IgG2a subclass.The titers in cell culture supernatant and abdomen liquor reached to 1:104and 1:105,respectively.The specificity test indicated that the two cells had specific reactions for the PRRSV and GP5 protein respectively,and no reaction with Classical swine fever virus (CSFV) or Swine vesicular disease virus (SVDV).The molecular weights of the heavy chain and light chain were about 45.0 kDa and 25.0 kDa,respectively.In neutralization activity tests,the results showed that the prepared mAb 4B4 can protect 50% of cells with no CPE in dilution up to 1:512,but mAB 8C9 has no neutralization activities to PRRSV.

BACKGROUND:At present,the biological functions and molecular changes of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in the tumor microenvironment of acute myeloid leukemia are still unclear. OBJECTIVE:To explore the changes in the biological function of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in acute myeloid leukemia and the role of acute myeloid leukemia conditioned medium by bioinformatics and experiment. METHODS:Differential genes were screened from GEO data sets,and enrichment analysis was performed.The protein-protein interaction network was constructed and the Hub gene was obtained.Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from patients with acute myeloid leukemia and healthy donors were cultured.Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from healthy donors were treated with acute myeloid leukemia conditioned culture solution.Each group was subjected to the adipogenic differentiation,osteogenic differentiation,staining of β-galactosidase,detection of the cell cycle,and validation of Hub genes. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Gene expression data of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from acute myeloid leukemia patients and healthy donors were obtained from GSE84881,and 184 up-regulated genes and 140 down-regulated genes were screened.(2)The biological functions of enrichment mainly include cell cycle,adipocyte differentiation,cell metabolism,and MYC pathway.According to the Degree algorithm,10 up-regulated Hub genes and 10 down-regulated Hub genes were selected.(3)The cell in vitro experiment found that:compared with the control group,the surface antigen of acute myeloid leukemia mesenchymal stem cells did not change,but it showed enhanced lipid differentiation ability,weakened osteogenic differentiation ability,increased β-galactosidase positive cell number,altered cell morphology,arrested cell cycle,increased LGALS3 expression,and decreased MYC expression.Mesenchymal stem cells from healthy donors showed similar changes after being cultured in acute myeloid leukemia conditioned medium.(4)The results show that biological function of mesenchymal stem cells is altered in the acute myeloid leukemia microenvironment,which provides new insights into the interaction between mesenchymal stem cells and tumor cells.

Factors affecting male fertility include lifestyle, psychology, environment, and so on.Pathogenic microorganisms in the genitourinary system can also lead to decline of male fertility.However, doctors tend to ignore the effects of immune responses and oxidative stress caused by pathogenic microorganisms on fertility, thus delaying the optimal time of treatment.This paper reviews the relationship between bacteria (such as Escherichia coli, Helicobacter pylori), viruses ( (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, human papilloma virus), and other pathogenic microorganisms (mycoplasma and chlamydia) and male infertility, and summarizes the latest research progress, aiming to provide guidance for the multidimensional treatment and to provide new ideas for the prevention of male infertility.
