Objective To evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of DNA micro-array in early detection of infectious pathogens on burn wounds,including 9 species of potential infectious pathogens namely Staphylococcus aureus,Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa,etc.Methods Serial dilutions of each targeted bacteria in saline were examined with VITEK automated microbial test systems(routine methods) as well as by DNA micro-array to compare the sensitivity between these two methods.Sixty-two strains of infectious pathogens collected from burn wounds,were identified by routine methods,and they were also subjected to DNA micro-array examination to determine coincidence.One hundred and three examinations of smear specimens collected from fresh burn wounds were performed with both methods synchronously.The difference in positive result of identification of bacteria between routine method and micro-array technology in sensitivity and specificity was compared.Results The identification of bacteria by micro-array was more convenient and rapid than that by routine method.A 10 to 100 fold higher sensitivity was found in bacterial identification by DNA micro-array than by routine methods.The positive and negative coincidence of bacterial identification was 100% between these two methods.All the strains found by the routine methods were successfully identified by DNA micro-array.In a few instances,more strains of bacteria were detected with micro-anay method than rowtine method.Conclusion The extremely high coincidence and sensitivity of micro-array method with the routine method was confirmed.The detection of bacteria from burn wounds and other contaminated or infected wounds using micro-array method has a bright prospect though some improvements are still necessary.

Objective To investigate the human papillomavirus 16/18 (HPV16/18) infective status and its relationship with the expression of p16,CK17,Ki-67 in immature squamous metaplasia(IM),cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and cervical carcinomas (CC).Methods In situ hybridization (ISH) and immunohistochemistry were applied to detect the expression of HPV16/18,p16,CK17,Ki-67 on tissues from 30 IM,60 CIN and 30 CC.Results The expression rates of HPV16/18 in LSIL,HSIL and CC were 30 ％ (9/30),60 ％ (18/30) and 77 ％ (23/30),higher than that in IM [6.7 ％ (2/30)].HPV16/18 was positively expressed with the progression of cervical squamous epithelial lesions.The expression rates of CK17 in IM was 90 ％ (27/30),higher than that in LSIL,HSIL and CC [17 ％ (5/30),10 ％ (3/30),6.7 ％ (2/30)].The expression rates of p16,Ki-67 were 83 ％ (25/30) and 87 ％ (26/30) in LSIL,90 ％ (27/30) and 93 ％ (29/30) in HSIL,97 ％ (29/30) and 97 ％ (29/30) in CC,higher than that in IM [13 ％ (4/30) and 10 ％ (3/30)].The expression of p16,Ki-67 were particularly seen in HPV16/18-positive HSIL and CC,and the correlation were observed.Conclusion HPV16/18 infection is highly associated with the degree of squamous intraepithelial neoplasia and carcinomas of cervix and upregulated p16 and Ki-67,which suggested that HPV16/18 maybe cause mutation of p16 gene.With the progression of cervical squamous epithelial lesions,positive expression rates of CK17 were decreased compared with increased of HPV16/18,p16,Ki-67.Combined detection of HPV16/18,p16,Ki-67 is helpful for diagnosis and classification of cervical squamous epithelial lesions.

Objective: To establish capillary zone electrophoresis method for determination of sildenafil citrate (Viagra) content in its troche. Methods： Using tetrandrine as internal standard(IS), the electrophoretic separation was achieved with 25 mmol/L borate (pH=7.89) running buffer. And a voltage of 14 kV was applied to the 40 cm×75 μm(i.d) capillary. The analytes were introduced into capillary by siphon (1 s) and determined with on-column monitoring at 214 nm.

Conclusion：The CZE method is accurate, simple, rapid and reliable, so it can be applied to the determination of sildenafil citrate content.

Objective To identify the differentially-expressed proteins of human gastric adenocarcinoma cell in primary or metastatic lymph node tissues by comparative proteomics technology, and to screen the specific metastatic-associated proteins so as to investigate the metastatic molecular mechanism of lymph node metastasis in gastric cancer. Methods 11differential proteins were acquired previously from primary and metastatic lymphnode tissues in gastric adenocarcinoma patients by 2D-DIGE. Some selected differential protein spots were identified by PMF based on MALDI-TOF-MS and database search. Immunohistochemical staining of HSP70 was used to evaluate the reliability of the proteomic analysis results. Results After analyzed on 11 differential proteins by in-gel trypsin digestion and MALDI-TOF-MS-based PMF analysis, a total of 5 differential proteins were identified by searching Mascot-database, HSP70ˊs 8 isoform 2 variant, chaperonin, chaperonin, leucine aminopeptidase, predicted: hypothetical protein XP_515584. Among the differential proteins identified, the levels of HSP70, chaperonin, leucine aminopeptidase expression had a significant up-regulation in gastric primary cancer compared with metastatic lymph node. HSP70 expression rate increased with the metastasis of lymph node and the progress of gastric cancer, agreed with the proteomics results. Conclusions They are similar in differentially-expressed proteins in primary or metastatic lymph node tissues because of the uniformity in source and differention. There are few protein changes in cancer cells between them, taking part in the metastatic of gastric cancer. HSP70 takes part in the progress of gastric cancer and relates to the metastasis of lymph node and malignant degree.

Objective To establish differential protein expressing profiles of human gastric adenocarcinoma cell in primary or metastatic lymph node tissues by two-dimensional differential gel electrophorosis (2-D DIGE) so as to investigate the metastatic molecular mechanism of the gastric cancer.Methods After obtaining 6 samples of human primary gastric cancer and metastatic lymph node tissues,with manual no-staining frozen sections microdissection,human gastric adenocarcinoma cells from primary or metastatic lymph node tissues were isolated,and then the total proteins were extracted and purified.Highly sensitive 2-D DIGE was used to separate the total protein differentially expressed in the cells.The proteins were visualized by using a fluorescence scanner at appropriate wavelengths for Cy2,Cy3 and Cy5 dyes (Typhoon 9400).Image analysis was carried out with the DeCyder-Differential analysis software (Biological Variation Analysis version 5.0).Results Not only can the study procure defined adenocarcinoma cell populations from gastric primary or metastatic lymph node tissues,but also can resolve the problem of the change in 2-D DIGE patterns because of the varying in protein changes owing to dyeing.All these showed that the technique was simple,easy to perform,versatile and of particular usefulness when laser capture microdissection (LCM) was practically unavailable.The 2-D DIGE patterns with high resolution and reproducibility from adenocarcinoma cells in gastric primary or metastatic lymph node tissues were obtained.The number of spots in Gel1,Gel2 were 1 416 (similar 1 062,decrease 277,increase 77),1 299 (similar 1 050,decrease 157,increase 92),respectively.A total of 11 differential proteins were acquired by image analysis with DeCyder-Differential analysis software (Biological Variation Analysis version 5.0).Conclusions In this report,a simple,easy to proform method of protein epuration,manual no-staining frozen sections microdissection is described,and have used the highly sensitive 2-D DIGE for the identification of proteins differentially expressing in human gastric adenocarcinoma cells from primary or metastatic lymph node tissues.These results provide a fundamental basis for further study of metastatic mechanism of gastric cancer and screen its specific markers.
