Objective:To investigate the expression of long non-coding RNA MALAT1, interleukin 6(IL-6) and apoptosis induced factor(AIF) in peripheral venous blood of premature infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and its clinical significance.Methods:Preterm infants admitted to the Department of Neonatology, Shanghai Children′s Hospital from January 2015 to December 2016 were enrolled.The selection criteria included gestational age (GA) ≥28 weeks and ≤32 weeks, and birth weight (BW) < 1 500 g. According to the diagnosis, they were divided into BPD group (20 cases) and control group (20 cases). The clinical data of the two groups of premature infants were collected and analyzed, and the levels of MALAT1, IL-6 and AIF in the blood of 40 premature infants were detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). T test was used to compare gestational age, birth weight, MALAT1, IL-6 and AIF between the two groups. Results:(1)There was no significant differences in sex ( χ2=1.76), gestational age ( t= 0.17) and birth weight ( t=1.25) of premature infants in BPD group, compared with the control group (all P >0.05). (2)Compared with the control group, the expression of MALAT1 in the peripheral blood of premature infants in BPD group were significantly increased (0.273 4±0.067 3 vs. 0.375 5±0.081 9, P<0.05). (3)Compared with the control group, the expression of IL-6 in the peripheral blood of premature infants in BPD group were obviously decreased (1.448 8±0.191 8 vs.4.444 6±0.165 7, P<0.05). (4)Compared with the control group, the expression of AIF in the peripheral blood of premature infants in BPD group were remarkably decreased(0.006 8±0.002 0 vs.0.004 5±0.001 9, P<0.05). Conclusions:MALAT1 and IL-6 levels of long non-coding RNA in BPD and non-BPD preterm infants are different, which may be related to the incidence of BPD.IL-6 may be a predictor of BPD, and MALAT1 may protect premature infants with BPD.

Objective To investigate the numbers and the expression of MHC-Ⅰpositive cells in hu- man ovarian epithelial carcinoma tissues and provide the experimental data in the futher biological therapy of ovarian carcinoma.Methods Thirty one samples of ovarian epithelial carcinoma were analysed with flow cy- tometry for MHC classⅠexpression.Results The number of MHC classⅠcells(25.22?21.23,4.37?3.63)was fewer in ovarian epithelial carcinoma than that in normal ovarian tissues(43.56?18.47,7.43?5.87),and was related with pathologic grades(P

Objective To investigate the clinical and pathological characteristics of IgA nephropathy (IgAN) in association with active tubular interstitial lesions. Methods 148 patients who were diagnosed as IgAN by renal biopsy and admitted to Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital from March 2014 to December 2014 were enrolled. They were divided into IgAN with active tubular interstitial lesions group (IgAN?ATIL group, 23 patients) and IgAN without active tubular interstitial lesions group (control group, 125 patients). Clinical and pathological characteristics were retrospectively analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influence factors. Results The prevalence of ATIL in 148 IgAN patients was 15.5%. IgAN?ATIL group showed an older average age and more higher proportion of medication history (antibiotics, diuretics, nonsteroidal anti ?inflammatory drugs, etc) than those in control group. There were significant differences in Alb, eGFR, Scr, BUN, 24?hour urinary protein quantity, urinary NGAL and urinary RBC count between two groups (P<0.05, respectively). A moderate of tubulointerstitial lesions of IgAN?ATIL group was shown, while the control group was mainly mild lesions. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, medication history and the urinary NGAL level were independent risk factors of IgAN ? ATIL. Conclusions IgAN patients with active tubular interstitial lesions had more severe clinical manifestations and chronic interstitial lesions. The age, medication history (antibiotics, diuretics, nonsteroidal anti?inflammatory drugs, etc) and the urinary NGAL level were independent risk factors of IgAN?ATIL.

Objective To investigate the clinical and pathological features of idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) in young patients.Methods Clinical data of 20 young patients, 16 to 44 years, who were diagnosed as IMN admitted to the Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital from January 2013 to December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed, comparing to 55 mid-aged patients who were diagnosed as IMN during the same period in the hospital.Clinical and pathological features of above mentioned patients were analyzed.Results Young patients with IMN accounted for 26.7％ of IMN patients.Compared to mid-aged patients, young patients with IMN had lower proportion of hypertension (P=0.003), lower blood glucose level (P=0.010), higher estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) (P=0.012, P=0.038), and lower levels of T3 and T4 (P=0.030, P=0.034).Furthermore, there were less sclerosis glomeruli (P＜ 0.001), hyaline change of arteriole (P=0.040) and arteriolar wall thickening (P ＜ 0.0001), lower positive ratios of IgA (P=0.008),and more without renal tubulointerstitial lesions (P=0.018) in young patients.There were no statistically significant differences between these two groups in other index.Conclusions Compared to mid-aged patients, young patients with IMN have better blood pressure and blood glucose level, higher glomerular filtration rate and LDL.Moreover, thyroid function is significantly affected, meanwhile the lesions of glomerular, interstitial and vascular are mild in young patients.

[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To investigate the effect of storage temperature in renal biopsy tissue frozen section on immu-nofluorescence results.METHODS:One hundred renal biopsy samples of Zhejiang Province People’ s Hospital from Janu-ary to June, 2015 were enrolled.Two sets of cutting slices were stored in -70 ℃ low temperature refrigerator as experi-mental group and in -12 ℃ freezing cryostat as control group.The immunoglobulins ( IgG, IgA and IgM) and comple-ments (C3, C4 and C1q) as well as fibrinogen were detected with direct immunofluorescence in the next day.The typeⅣcollagen a3 and a5 chains were also detected by indirect immunofluorescence, and the qualitative and semi-quantitative re-sults were observed under the fluorescence microscope.RESULTS:There were 16 cases of 3+~4+IgG in the experi-mental group, while the corresponding IgG was all 1+~2+in control group, significantly weaker than that in experimen-tal group.There were 99 cases of 3+~4+a3 and 3+~4+a5 in experimental group, white there were 92 cases of 1+~2+a3/a5 and 8 cases negative in control group.The positive intensity was decreased in control group with statistical difference between the 2 groups ( P<0.05) .There were 15 cases of 4+IgA, 19 cases of 3+IgA, 15 cases of 3+IgM, 11 cases of 2+IgM, 13 cases of 4+C3, and 12 cases of 3+C3 in experimental group.The control group were similar to the results of experimental group, and no difference between the 2 groups was observed.CONCLUSION:The immunoflu-orescence results of renal biopsy frozen sections are highly affected by the section storage temperature, which has greater in-fluence on the immunofluorescence positive intensity of IgG and typeⅣcollagen.The renal biopsy frozen section should be stored in -70 ℃low temperature refrigerator.

Objective To observe the quantity change of autophagosomes in podocytes and expressions of autophagy-related gene Beclin-1 and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3) in different pathological stages of idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN),and to explore how autophagy is related to podocyte injury,the occurrence of proteinuria and the disease progression in IMN.Methods Clinical data of 26 patients who were diagnosed as IMN (14 IMN stage 1 and 12 IMN stage 2) admitted to Zhejiang Provincial people's Hospital from January 2013 to December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.Normal renal tissue from 15 cases of kidney neoplasms with nephrectomy was collected as control.The changes of kidney tissue pathology were detected after PAS and PASM staining by light microscope.The autophagosomes of podocyte were detected by transmission electron microscopy.Expressions of Beclin-1 and LC3 protein were detected by immunohistochemistry.Expressions of LC3 and synaptopodin were detected by immunofluorescence.The correlation of autophagosomes and clinical pathologic factors in IMN patiens was analyzed.Results There were fewer autophagosomes of podocytes and lower expression of Beclin-1 and LC3 protein in IMN group than those in control group (P=0.034,P=0.011,P=0.013,respectively).Moreover,these effects were more obvious with the development of IMN.Compared with those in control group,autophagosomes,Beclin-1 and LC3 protien were reduced in IMN stage 2 group (P=0.009,P=0.030,P=0.015);the number of autophagosomes and the expressions of LC3 and Beclin-1 were decreased in IMN stage 1 group as well,however statistically insignificant (P=0.352,P=0.087,P=0.128);Comparisons between IMN stage 2 patients and IMN stage 1 patients shown significant difference in the number of autophagosomes (P=0.030),but no significant difference in expressions of Beclin-1 and LC3 (P=0.355,P=0.181).Autophagosomes number was not correlated with serum creatinine,serum urea nitrogen,24-hour urinary protein and eGFR (all P ＞ 0.05).The expressions of synaptopodin and LC3 protein were lower in IMN group than those in control group.Conclusion Autophagy may contribute to podocyte injury and the production of protein urine in IMN,and may be closely related to the progression of disease.

A reasonable and practicable quality standard was developed for mori liquid extract from different sources by TLC, HPLC and fingerprint technology. In TLC method, the compounds were separated on polyamide film using glacial acetic acid-water (1: 3) as mobile phase at a UV wavelength of 365 nm. All qualified samples had the spots of the same color as the control herb and substance. The RP-HPLC method was used to determine the content of mulberroside A with mobile phase of methanol-water (25: 75) at a wave-length of 326 nm. The mulberroside A was in good linear with a regression equation of Y = 46.965X (r = 0.999 6) in the range of 4.6 - 228 mg x L(-1). In 14 batches of samples, the mulberroside A in 4 batches of them was less than 0.5 g x L(-1), and was more than 2.0 g x L(-1) in the other batches. It was suggested that the content limit of mulberroside A should be no less than 1.5 g x L(-1). The HPLC fingerprints were evaluated by the similarities. It has found that the similarities of different mori liquid extracts were very low and the chemical diversity of mori cortex was the major factor of similarity. Moreover, the process impact was minimal. Thus the fingerprint was not included in this quality standard.
