Objective To further research the biological functions of PES1,the ovarian SKOV3 cell line with inducible stable PES1 expression is established by using Tet-on system.Methods PES1 was cloned into pTRE-Tight vector via PCR and its expression was identified. After transfected the regulating plasmid pTet-on,SKOV3 cells were screened with G418 and re-transfected pTRE-Tight-PES1.The positive cell clones were screened out with hygromycin and were induced by doxycycline (Dox) to definite the best induction concentration.Growth velocity of SKOV3 cells stably expressing PES1 induced by Dox was detected with viola crystallina.Results The SKOV3 cells with inducible PES1 expression were screened out after the cells were transfected pTRE-Tight-PES1 constructed.Dox could dose-dependently induce the PES1 expression with the concentration under 2 mg/L,and 2 mg/L of Dox induced the highest PES1 expression.Growth velocity of SKOV3 cells transfected pTRE-Tight has no significant difference between the SKOV3 cells transfected nothing induced with Dox.However,the SKOV3 cells transfected pTRE-Tight-PES1 grew faster than the cells transfected pTRE-Tight or without transfection in the fourth day (P =0.001 ).Conclusion The inducible stable PES1 expression SKOV3 cells are successfully established and could be used to be an effective cell model to research the biological functions of PES1.The expression of PES1 could promote the growth of SKOV3 cells.

Objective To investigate the correlation between serum lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)) level andischemic stroke and its etiological subtypes. Methods The consecutive inpatients with acute ischemic stroke (case group) and age-and sex-matched healthy subjects (control group) over the same period were enrolled retrospectively. The demographic and baseline clinical data, as well as fasting blood glucose, fibrinogen,homocysteine, total cholesterol, triacylglycerol, high-densitylipoprotein cholesterol, low -density lipoprotein cholesterol, and Lp(a) concentration of the case group and the control group were collected. According to TOAST classification criteria, the patients in the case group were divided into large artery atherosclerosis (LAA), small artery occlusion (SAO) and cardioembolism (CE), and the patients with other determined etiology and undetermined etiology were excluded. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to make clear the correlation between serum Lp(a) and acute ischemic stroke and its etiological subtypes. Results A total of 214 patients with ischemic stroke were enrolled. Ninety-seven had LAA (45.33%), 64 (29.91%) had SAO, and 53 (24.77%) had CE. There were 118 subjects in the control group. There were significant differences in the proportions of hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, atrial fibrillation and alcohol consumption, as well as systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, low -density lipoprotein cholesterol, Lp(a), fibrinogen, and homocysteine between the case group and the control group (all P <0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after adjustment for age and sex, Lp(a) is an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke (odds ratio [OR] 2.014, 95% confidence interval [CI ] 1.273-3.092, P = 0.036). The independent risk factors for LAA included hypertension (OR 3.353, 95% CI 1.714-6.558, P = 0.001), systolic blood pressure ( OR 2.786, 95% CI 1.136-5.538, P =0.016), homocysteine ( OR 1.108, 95% CI 1.031-2.191, P = 0.005), total cholesterol (OR 2.169, 95% CI 1.599-4.943, P = 0.001), low -density lipoprotein cholesterol ( OR2.782, 95% CI 1.093-5.238, P =0.024), and Lp(a) (OR 3.072, 95% CI 1.907-8.064, P =0.001). Theindependent risk factors for SAO included hypertension ( OR 7.042, 95% CI 3.189-25.55, P =0.001), diabetes mellitus (OR 5.162, 95% CI 2.372-11.23, P =0.001), fibrinogen (OR 1.667, 95% CI 1.434-2.025, P = 0.045), and homocysteine (OR 1.967, 95% CI 1.859-1.995, P =0.036). The independent risk factors for CE included atrial fibrillation (OR 13.340, 95% CI 4.637-39.20, P = 0.001), fibrinogen (OR 2.365, 95% CI 1.147- 4.904, P =0.029), and Lp(a) (OR 1.656, 95% CI 1.996-3.001, P = 0.035). Conclusions Lp(a) is an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke, and can be used as a serum biomarker for predicting the risk of the onset of ischemic stroke. There are differences in independent risk factors between the different stroke etiological subtypes. Lp(a) is independently associated with LAA and CE; however, it has no independent correlation with SAO.

Objective:To study the diagnostic and therapeutic value of open food challenge in children with cow ′s milk protein allergy.Methods:It is a retrospective analysis of 55 children with suspected cow′s milk protein allergy ( CMPA ) who attended the clinic of the pediatric gastroenterology department ,the First Hospital of Jilin University from March 2014 to March 2015.These children were fed by a mino acid based formulae ( AAF) for 2-4 weeks and then open food challenge ( OFC) test was performed.Those children who tested positive , were diagnosed as having CMPA.They were then fed with AAF for further 3 months and OFC was performed again.Then discusse the diagnostic and therapeutic value of open food challenge in children with cow ′s milk protein allergy.Results:Out of 55 CMPA suspected children ,52 tested positive with OFC yielding a positive rate of 94.55%.These 52 children were fed with AAF for further 3 months and then tested with OFC ,9 children tested positive yielding a positive rate of 17.30%.These 9 children were again fed with AAF for 3 months and then tested with OFC.This time 2 children tested positive yielding a positive rate of 3.85%.Con-clusion:Open food challenge teats are of great significance in the diagnosis of CMPA ,and evaluation of tolerance to cow′s milk protein ( CMP).

Objective To explore the effect of suramin on the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and the excretion of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) in peritoneal mesothelial cells (PMCs) induced by high concentrations of glucose solution (GS).Methods Cultured PMCs were divided into three groups:(1) normal control group; (2) GS-treated group:cells were treated with 1.5％,2.5％,4.25％ GS for 12 h,24 h,48 h,respectively; (3) Suramin-treated group:PMCs cultured with 4.25％ GS were exposed to different doses of suramin (25,50,100 μmol/L) for 48 h.Expression levels of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and E-cadherin were detected by Western blotting and the concentration of TGF-β1 in the culture supernatant was determined by ELISA.Results Compared with normal control group,GS-treated PMCs exhibited a time-dependent increase in the expression of α-SMA,and decrease in the expression of E-cadherin.GS also stimulated PMCs to secrete TGF-β1.In the presence of suramin,GS-induced α-SMA expression and TGF-β1 production were reduced,E-cadherin expression was increased.Conclusions Suramin can inhibit high glucose-induced EMT of PMCs by down-regulating the expression of TGF-β1.Suramin may be a novel therapeutic agent for the treatment of peritoneal fibrosis.

B7-H1, a recently described member of the B7 family of costimulatory molecules, is thought to be involved in tumor immune escape by inducing T-cell apoptosis. In order to investigate the relationship between B7-H1 and immune escape of bladder cancer, B7-H1 expression in 50 cases of bladder cancer was detected by using immunohistochemical method. Survival curves were constructed using the Kaplan-Meier method and independent prognostic factors were evaluated using the Cox regression model. Our results showed that the positive rate of B7-H1 immunostaining in normal bladder tissue and bladder cancer was 0 and 72% respectively. The expression of B7-H1 was strongly associated with the pathological grade, clinical stage and recurrence (P<0.05). The survival rate was significantly lower in patients with B7-H1 positive group than in those with B7-H1 negative group and multi-variable analysis revealed that B7-H1 could be regarded as an independent factor in evaluating the prognosis of bladder cancer. It is concluded that the expression of B7-H1 is strongly associated with neoplastic progression and prognosis of bladder cancer. The manipulation of B7-H1 may become a beneficial target for immunotherapy in human bladder cancer.
