AIM To investigate the role of ERK/AP-1 pathway in the differentiation induced by diallyl disulfide (DADS) on human gastric cancer MGC803 cell. METHODS Immunocytochemical staining and morphometric quantitative analysis detected the expression of c-fos and c-jun;Western Blot which measured the activation of ERK was analyzed to elucidate the possible mechanism of DADS-induced human gastric cancer cell differentiation. RESULTS Immunocytochemical staining and morphometric quantitative analysis indicated that expression of c-fos and c-jun reduced(P

Objective To explore the guiding value for operation of MRI in diagnosing the cranial base chordoma. Methods MRI features of 15 cases with cranial base chordoma, which were proved by biopsy and surgery, were retrospectively analyzed. Results Most of the cranial base chordoma were located in the middle area of the skull base such as clivus and sellar region and always invaded extensively the nerves and major intracranial vessels of skull base. All tumors were hypointense on T_2WI and enhanced more markedly, but steady heterogeneous. Conclusion MRI examination is of great clinical signifiance in delineating the location, size and extension of cranial base chordoma, and showed anatomic relation with surrounding structures such as the major intracranial vessels of skull base, which is very important in surgical planning.

Objective To study the relation between phlegm-damp retention type of metabolism syndrome and microcosmic indices in order to find out the objective evidence for TCM syndrome differentiation.Methods Totally 49 cases of metabolism syndrome were observed,25 of them were phlegm-damp retention type in differentiation and 24 were non-phlegm-damp retention type.The height, body weight,waistline and blood pressure of two groups were measured,the serum leptin,insulin and blood lipid were determined, and the insulin resistance index(IRI)and body mass index(BMI)were calculated.Results The leptin,BMI,systolic pressure,FINS and IRI of the phlegm-damp retention group were all higher than those of the non-phlegm-damp retention group.Conclusion BMI, leptin,insulin,and IRI may be taken as the the index of syndrome differentiation in metabolism syndrome.

Objective To evaluate engraftment status of patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(Allo-HSCT) and prompt relapse of disease based on DNA polymorphism analysis technique.Methods Sixty-six cases were detected by DNA polymorphism analysis technique and 25 cases were monitored and analyzed dynamically during this period.Results After Allo-HSCT,48 patients obtained type of donors,but 13 patients did not; 5 patients showed mixed chimerism.Two cases of type of donors converted into mixed chimerism and 4 cases of mixed chimerism converted into type of donors after some time. The others' engraftment status did not change.Conclusion DNA polymorphism analysis technique can detect engraftment status of patients exactly, rapidly, which provides effective evidences of constitution for more clinical therapy projects.

Objective To summarize the clinical characteristics,diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary sequestration(PS) in children.Methods The clinical data of 19 children with PS confirmed by operation and(or) imaging examination from Mar.2003 to May.2008 were analyzed retrospectively.Thirteen cases were male,and 6 cases were female.One case was newborn infant.Seventeen cases received operation.Intralober type had a pulmonary lobectomy and extralobar type had a sequestrectomy.Chest X-ray and CT scan examinations were performed on the patients before operation.Results Seventeen cases got complete cure by operation,and the mean age at operation was 5.2 years.Chest enhanced CT indicated abnormal feeding arteries.Lobectomy was performed in 13 cases of intralobar PS,4 cases of extralobar PS were resected in the separated lung tissue,and all patients had unilateral lesions.No late deaths occurred in this group except 1 case who was complicated with malformation,and the postoperative follow-up showed an excellent recovery.Conclusions The main diagnostic methods of PS are CT and angiography.The diagnosis of PS can be confirmed when systemic feeding arteries are indicated on enhanced CT scans.Surgical resection is the main choice of treatment in all cases of PS in order to prevent recurrent infection and hemoptysis.The excellent results can be obtained by surgery.

To predict and identify the dominant B‐cell epitopes of conserved region of Treponema pallidum repeat protein F (TprFN ) and provide the basis for development of polyvalent epitope‐based syphilis vaccine ,the amino acid sequence of TprFN was obtained from GenBank and analyzed with comprehensive meta‐analysis Mobyle ,ABCpred and IEDB online software .The peptides containing predicted epitopes were artificially synthesized . To obtain and measure the titers of antibodies against TprFN ,New Zealand rabbits were immunized with recombinant protein TprFN expressed in E .coli and identified by Western blot (WB) .Sera from TprFN‐immunized rabbits ,syphilis patients ,and normal human and normal rabbits were used to deter‐mine the immunoreactivity and specificity of 7 predicted peptides of TpFN by indirect ELISA .Comprehensive meta‐analysis of online software showed that P1 (43‐62AA) ,P2(57‐71AA) ,P3(81‐88AA) ,P4(89‐103AA) ,P5(125‐138AA) ,P6(231‐251AA) and P7(268‐279AA) might be the B‐cell epitopes .A protein was expressed in a soluble form and identified as TpFN by WB .The ELISA indicated that P1 and P3 were active with TprFN‐immunized rabbit sera and syphilis patient sera but not with negative control sera .These results indicate that P1 and P3 are the potential dominant B‐cell epitopes .

Aim To investigate the effects of diallyl di-sulfide( DADS) on G2/M arrest in Chk1/MGC803 and Chk2/MGC803 cells so as to establish stable human gastric cancer MGC803 cells with overexpression of Chk1/2 gene. Methods The colony formation, flow cytometry, RT-PCR and Western blot were used to de-tect the proliferation, cell cycle, and expression of Chk1/2 mRNA and protein, p-Chk1/2, CDC25C and cyclinB1, respectively. Results The colony formation showed that the colony forming efficiency in Chk1/MGC803 and Chk2/MGC803 cells treated by 30 mg· L-1 DADS was lower than in control group and vector group ( P <0. 05 ) . Flow cytometry demonstrated that 41. 3%, 57. 4%, 68. 9% and 42. 9% of G2/M cells in Chk1/MGC803 were increased than in MGC803 and Chk2/MGC803 , respectively after treated by DADS in 12,24, 36 and 48 h(P <0. 05). At the same time, RT-PCR disclosed that expression of Chk1 and Chk2 mRNA had no marked change. Western blot showed that total proteins of Chk1 and Chk2 and p-Chk2 had invisible change, but expression of p-Chk1 was up-reg-ulated, and CDC25C and cyclinB1 were down-regula-ted time-dependently in Chk1/MGC803 cells ( P <0. 05 ) . Conclusion DADS arrests MGC803 cells at G2/M by increasing p-Chk1 expression to cause down-regulation of CDC25C and cyclinB1 simultaneously.
