Objective To study the rule of gene expression profiles of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), and to find new sensitive molecules which express specifically in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC) of CML patients, in order to further elucidate the potential molecular biological mechanisms leading to CML. Methods The expression of mRNA from PBMC of CML patients was compared with that of normal controls using a cDNA microarray. The bioinformatics analysis was used for every up- or down-regulated gene in CML. The new gene with unknown function and no homology to known genes in the database was confirmed, and electric polymerase chain reaction was conducted for the cloning of its full-length DNA in conjunction with Kozak rule and the exit of polyadenyl signal sequence. Sequence specific primers were designed to amplify the new gene from the mRNA of CML PBMC with the reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR). Results Many genes commonly up- or down-regulated in CML cells were identified. Of these, we found a novel gene with unknown function with high expression in the patients cells. Its nucleotide sequence and corresponding protein-encoding amino acid had been determined, which contained 1 872nt and 624aa respectively. We named the new gene as human chronic myelogenous leukemia associated protein gene (CMLAP), and logged the sequence of the CMLAP gene into the GenBank with the accession number AY762229. Conclusion CMLAP gene expressed highly in CML PBMC was cloned and identified successfully by combining DNA chip technology and bioinformational technology. The gene was likely to play an important role in the disease and might serve as a molecular marker for CML. The findings will pave the way for the further study of the molecular mechanism of CML.

OBJECTIVE To retrospectively analyze the clinical characteristics of the benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) secondary to the sudden deafness (SD) and to explore the possible pathogenetic mechanism, diagnosis and treatment. METHODS 218 cases of the SD in our department were retrospectively analyzed, and 37 patients with primary BPPV during the same period were used as control group. All patients were confirmed by the examination of Dix-Hallpike and the roll check,the primary disease (sudden deafness) of secondary BPPV patients were in line with the Chinese Medical Association diagnostic criteria. RESULTS In all these patients with SD,there were 91 cases with BPPV secondary to the SD. There were 67 cases of BPPV of posterior semicircular canal and 21 cases of BPPV of lateral BPPV semicircular canal. Besides, 3 cases were of multi-semicircular canal affected. All patients with BPPV were diagnosed as the same ears as the SD. The symptoms were alleviated and initial success rate was 68.1%. During 6-22 month follow-ups, total success rate was 100%, and recurrence rate was7.7% (7/91). The hearing recovery of high frequency is worse than that of the low frequency. There were 2 cases of recurrence in lateral BPPV group, 5 cases in posterior BPPV group. All were cured by reposositioning maneuver. All patients with primary and secondary BPPV were cured with Epley maneuver or Barbecue roll maneuver, and the curative effect of them is similar. CONCLUSION The occurrence of BPPV may follow SD,and the majority of BPPV secondary to the SD occurs in the posterior semicircular canal. The canalith repositioning is an effective therapy for secondary BPPV.

Objective:To study the molecular composition of bismuth potassium citrate. Methods:The content of bismuth was de-termined using a volumetric method, the content of potassium was determined by atomic absorption spectrometry, and the content of cit-rate root was determined by ion chromatography. The structure was predicted using 1 HNMR and the crystal structure was studied using X-diffraction test and scanning electron microscopy. The changes in the percentage ratio of the three components were investigated by accelerated stability tests. Results:On the dried basis, the percentage of the three molecular components was bismuth of 35%-38%, potassium of 7%-11% and root citrate of 49%-52%. The NMR spectra and the data indicated that the product had three isomers with the molecular structure of bismuth∶potassium∶root citrate=2∶2∶2. The X-diffraction test and SEM showed that the three forms of amor-phous, monocrystalline and polycrystalline might exist. The percentage ratio of the three elements before and after the stability test was basically stable. Conclusion:Bismuth potassium citrate may have three crystal forms with the percentage of the three structure parts within a certain range, and the structure is relatively stable.

Background and purpose:The time from ifrst onset of symptoms or signs to a deifnitive diagnosis is deifned as diagnostic interval (DI). The relation of DI to other clinicopathological parameters andthe impact of DI on prognosis of patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) remain unclear.This article plans to make an intensive study of these questions.Methods:The clinical records of a series of 83 consecutively presenting unselected patients referred to the Shanghai Sixth People’s Hospital with diagnosed TNBC between September 2009 and September 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical and pathological factors included were investigated by univariate analysis using the Kaplan-Meier method, the factors associated with prognosis were further evaluated by multivariable analysis with Cox progression model.t-test and Kruskal-Wallis test were used to study the correlation between DI and other characters.Results:DI: stage T3>T1 (P=0.01), stageⅢ>Ⅱ (P=0.03) andⅠ (P=0.01). Compared with patients of DI≥3 months, the <3 months group had earlier age (P=0.028) and TNM stage (P=0.035). T stage, N stage, neoadjuvant chemotherapy, TNM stage and DI are inlfuencing factors of overall survival (OS). Age, T stage, N stage, TNM stage, menstrual status and neoadjuvant chemotherapy are inlfuencing factors of progression-free survival (PFS). TNM staging is an independent inlfuencing factor for OS and PFS.Conclusion:Patients with later disease stage were more likely to have a longer DI; The shorter DI, the earlier age and stage of disease; DI is the inlfuence factor of OS; TNM stage is an independent inlfuencing factor for OS and PFS.

Background Animal model of fungal keratitis is an available tool to the experimental study of the pathogenesis mechanism of fungal keratitis. Current modeling methods of fungal keratitis include corneal scratching, corneal stroma injection and corneal surface lens methods. But these methods still have their own shortages. Objective This experiment was to create a fungal keratitis animal model by modifying corneal surface lens method. Methods Modified animal models of fungal keratitis were created by modified corneal surface lens method in 12 general adult New Zealand white rabbits. The filter papers soaked 108 spores / ml or A106spores / ml of spergillus fumigatus suspension were attached on the de-epithelial cornea surface and fixed with contact lens and tarsorrhaphy for 2 days, and the filter paper with physiological saline was used as control group. The symptoms of anterior segment were examined under the slit lamp in 3 ,7 and 14 days after surgery and scored based on the criteria of Dong. Corneal scraping was stained with 10% potassium hydroxide and calcofluor white stain to observed mycelium under the fluorescence microscope. Corneal tissue sections were examined by hematoxylin-eosin staining and periodic acid Schiff staining under the light microscope. The use of animal followed the Standard of Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology. Results Fungal keratitis models were successfully established in 6 eyes and 4 eyes in 108 spores/ml group (6/6) and 106 spores/ml group respectively. The symptom was more severer and score was higher in the eyes of 108 spores/ml group than that in 106 spores/ml group. At 3 and 7 days after surgery,the symptom scores of fungal keratitis models were higher than those of control group from 3 through 7 days with the statistically significant difference (P<0. 01) and the symptom scores of 108 spores/ml group were significantly higher than those of 106 spores/ml group (P<0. 01). At 14 days after surgery, the symptom scores of 108 spores/ml group were still higher than those of control group (P<0. 05). Fungal hyphae was seen in the corneal scrapes in 108 spores/ml group and 106 spores/ml group respectively from 3 through 7 days after surgery. Inflammatory cell infiltration, stroma cells necrosis and fungal hyphae were presented in 108 spores/ml group, and the corneal neovascularization could be observed in 108 spores / ml group 14 days later. Fungal culture revealed the positive outcome in both 3 and 7 days after surgery in 108 spores/ml group,but in 106 spores/ml group,the positive result was only in the 3rd day. Conclusion Modified corneal surface lens method is more feasible and sample in the model of Aspergillus keratitis. This animal model of Aspergillus keratitis is practical for the further study of fungal keratitis.
