Objective To investgate the expression and the clinical significance of survivin in the primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods S-P immunohistochemical staining was performed to detect the expression of survivin in 50 samples of HCC tissue and 20 of normal liver tissue. Results The positive rate of survivin expression in HCC was 66. 0% (33/50) , which was significantly higher than that in normol liver tissues (negative expression) (P<0. 001). The expression of survivin was correlated with intrahepatic dissemination and multiple masses (P = 0. 019, P=0. 030). The high survivin expression was associated with the survival time less than three years(P = 0. 018). Conclusion The survivin may play certain roles in the oncogenesis and progression of HCC. Detection of the survivin can supply certain evidence on prognosis of primary hepatocellular carcinoma.

The monitoring of total toxicity of water is of great importance to guarantee the safety of drinking water and estimate the level of water pollution from multiple pollutants.Here, we reported an online equipment for monitoring toxicity of water, where in-site cultured microorganisms were used as the test organism and respiratory inhibition of microorganisms was regarded as the toxicity response.A three-electrode electrochemical detector was integrated in the equipment, where an array electrode composed of microsized Pt disks, a Ag/AgCl (3 mol/L KCl) electrode and a gold wire were used as the working, reference and counter electrodes, respectively.The average respiratory inhibition ratios obtained with this equipment for 5.0, 10.0, 20.0 mg/L 3,5-dichlorophenol (DCP) were 24.4%, 48.9% and 59.2%, respectively.The equipment was further used for continuous online monitoring of the total toxicity of underground water, and successfully showed the toxicity alarm when challenged randomly by toxicity samples containing 5.0 mg/L DCP.The present results suggested the good promise of the equipment in online monitoring of water total toxicity.

Objective To investigate the factor that affecting the prevalence of osteoarthritis in rural areas of Shanxi, China. Methods All the residents above 16-year-old from the villages chosen by multi-stage stratified cluster sampling in Yangcheng County and Pianguan County in Shanxi Province were investigated by COPCORD procedure of WHO. All respondents signed the informed consent forms. Chi-square test and multivariable logistic regression analysis were used for the risk factor analysis. Results Seven thousand one hundred and twenty-six permanent residents in the two counties were investigated, of which 1734 cases of patients with osteoarthritis were identified. Take with or without osteoarthritis as response variables, statistically significant variables in the univariate analysis were substituted into the logistic regression model. Forward method was used for the variable selection. The inclusion criteria set as 0.10. The results showed that, age, room heating and ventilation, marital status, occupation, education, engaged in coal mine work, accompanied cardiovascular disease were the risk factors for osteoarthritis disease. Conclusion There were many factors that affect the prevalence of osteoarthritis in Shanxi rural communities, in which lifestyle may play an important role. Early intervention on risk factors may have a significant effect on reducing the prevalence.

Drug delivery system targeting immune system plays an important role in the treatment of inflammatory diseases.Drug delivery system targeting immune system could target immune cells or immune organs.It could be divided into active targeting mediated by the interaction of ligand-receptor or antigen-antibody and passive targe-ting mediated by pH;particles and so on.This review summarizes new progress for drug delivery system targeting immune system;which provides a theoretical reference for designing the safe and effective drug delivery system and providing efficient and safe treatment for inflammatory diseases.

Aim To study the inhibitory effect of chitosan on peroxidation and monocytes adhesion to vascular endothelial cells induced by high concentration of glucose. Methods Human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVEC) were treated with high glucose, and high glucose with different concentrations of chitosan for 24 h. Hydroxyl radicals (OH?) and malon-dialdehyde (MDA) were measured. Monocytes Raw 264.7 were pre-incubated with Rhodamin123, and then co-cultured with HUVEC for 30 min, followed bymicroscope observation and determination of the monocytes adhesion. Finally, the mRNA expression of vascular cell adhesion molecular-1 (VCAM-1) was evaluated by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results Concentrations of OH? and MDA in HUVEC increased after incubation with high glucose. Both of the amount of adhesive monocytes and mRNA expression level of VCAM-1 in HUVEC were induced by high glucose. Inversely, chitosan inhibited these changes in a dose-dependent manner without any cytotoxicity to cells. Conclusion Chitosan can scavenge free radicals and prevent peroxidative injury on vascular endothelial cells, which further down-regulates the expression of VCAM-1 and consequently inhibits the adhesion of monocytes to endothlial cells.

BACKGROUND:Wear particles-induced osteoblasts apoptosis in vitro has been documented in many studies. However, the apoptosis of osteoblasts in osteolytic bone tissue and the selective mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of osteolysis have been studied rarely.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the influence of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress on the apoptosis of osteoblasts in osteolytic bone tissue and osteolysis progression.
METHODS:The mouse model of osteolysis was induced with wear particles placed onto the calvaria. The experiment was divided into four groups:blank control group (PBS stimulation);wear particle group (nano-al oy powder suspension stimulation);ER stress positive control group (nano-al oy powder+thapsin stimulation);and ER stress inhibitor group (nano-al oy powder+sodium 4-phenylbutyrate stimulation). The histopathologic change of osteolysis was assessed by hematoxylin-eosin, toluidine blue and alkaline phosphatase staining. Osteoblast proliferation and differentiation in osteolytic craniums were measured. The expression of ER stress markers in osteolytic craniums was examined by western blot analysis. Osteoblast apoptosis was analyzed by TUNEL staining and immunohistochemistry of Caspase-3 in osteolytic craniums.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Wear particles were capable of inducing osteolysis, aggravating the infiltration of inflammatory cells, and inhibiting the differentiation of osteoblasts in osteolytic craniums. Meanwhile wear particles upregulated the ER stress markers and promote the apoptosis in osteolytic craniums. Blocking ER stress with sodium 4-phenylbutyrate dramatical y reduced the severity of osteolysis, significantly reduced bone invasion and inflammatory infiltration, promoted the differentiation of osteoblasts, and dramatical y reduced the apoptosis. Along with apoptosis, the expression of ER stress marker was decreased. The present study suggests that the ER stress may be crucial for osteolysis and represent a potential therapeutic target in the prevention and treatment of patients with total joint replacement who are at high risk of early aseptic loosening development.

The magnetic Illite ( MILT) was firstly prepared by an effective polyol-medium solvothermal method. Based on these 3-( methacryloyloxy) propyl trimethoxysilane ( MILT-MPS), magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers (MMIPs) were further synthesized via atom transfer radical polymerization in a mixture solution of methanol and deionized water. The as-prepared MMIIPs were characterized by FT-IR, TEM), XRD, TGA and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and the results indicated that the MMIIPs exhibited magnetic sensitivity ( Ms =3. 866 emu / g ), thermal stability and a larger specific surface area (109. 58 m2 / g). The batch mode adsorption studies were carried out to investigate the recognition specificity and selective capacity. The Langmuir isotherm model was fitted to the equilibrium data, and the monolayer adsorption capacity of MMIPs at 25℃ was 86. 58 mg / g. The selective recognition experiments demonstrated high affinity and selectivity of MMIPs towards ciprofloxacin ( CIP) over competitive compounds. Combined with high performance liquid chromatographic analysis technology, the prepared MMIIPs were successfully applied to extract and enrich trace CIP in environmental samples with the CIP recoveries from 93. 4% to 98. 3% and the limit of detection of 0. 01 mg / L.
