1.Establishment of in vitro model for malignant melanoma with MV3 cells
Chinese Journal of Dermatology 2009;42(2):97-100
Objective To establish an in vitro model for malignant melanoma with a malignant melanoma cell line MV3 on de-epidermized dermis (DED) and to study the invasion mode of melanoma cells. Methods A human de-epidermized dermis was prepared with some elements of basal membrane (BM). Then, the reconstructed BM was identified by periodic acid schiff (PAS) staining and immunochemical staining for collagen Ⅳ. MV3 cells were seeded onto the prepared acellular dermis and maintained at the air-liquid interface for 13-15 days after 3-day submerged culture. Subsequently, the reconstructed malignant melanoma tissue was examined with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining and immunohistochemical staining with antibodies to S-100 protein and HMB45. Results No obvious changes were observed by naked eye in DED after the inoculation with MV3 cells. PAS staining and immunochemical staining for collagen Ⅳ confirmed the presence of BM component on the surface of DED and in the cavity of skin appendages in DED. Histological examination and immunochemical staining revealed that on the BM zone, MV3 cells grew into irregularly sized clusters; in the .cavity of skin appendages, they attached onto the BM and aggregated into circular or bandlike shape; and at the lateral side of DED, they invasively and diffusely grew, broke through the BM and intruded into the surrounding tissues of DED. The reconstructed tissue was positive for S-100 protein and weakly positive for HMB45. Conclusions The in vitro model of malignant melanoma could be reconstructed by skin organ culture system. And, the experiment suggests that BM could affect the invasive growth pattern of malignant melanoma cells.
2.Correlation between RECK gene methylation status and radiosensitivity in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2014;(5):315-318
Objective:This study has two objectives. One is to detect the methylation status of reversion-inducing cysteine-rich protein with Kazal motifs (RECK, a new tumor suppressor gene) gene promoter in primary laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma and nor-mal laryngeal mucosa. The other is to analyze the correlation between RECK gene methylation status and radiosensitivity in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma. Methods:Methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the RECK gene methylation of 70 specimens of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma and 15 normal tissues of laryngeal mucosa. The patients underwent six cycles of ra-diotherapy and were followed-up for 5 years. The correlation between RECK gene methylation status and radiosensitivity in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma was analyzed. Results: After six cycles of radiotherapy, 47 patients (67.14%) showed sensitivity and 23 (32.86%) showed tolerance to radiotherapy. The methylation level of the RECK gene was lower in the radiation-sensitive group than in the nonradiation-sensitive group (P<0.05). The methylation level of the RECK gene was lower in the remission group than in the non-remission group. RECK gene methylation could increase the risk of cancer by approximately 5.010 times (OR=5.010, 95%CI:1.616-15.533). Conclusion:RECK gene promoter methylation in human laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma is an early event that is correlated with the patient's sensitivity to radiotherapy. Thus, the patient's sensitivity to radiation can be predicted by detecting the meth-ylation status of the RECK gene promoter.

Objective To investigate the subjective life quality of hospitalized children and analyze its influencing factors for improving their life quality.Methods 48 hospitalized children who were admitted between May to August 2011 were investigated in convenience using inventory of subjective life quality (ISLQ).Results Patients investigated had a higher score than the national norm on Family Life Dimension.The satisfaction level of 20% ~ 30% children were below the average on Family Life and other eight dimensions,the cognitive components of 16 cases (33.3%) and emotional component of 11 cases (22.9%) were below the average.15 cases (31.3%) were not satisfied with their subjective quality of life.Female patients had higher scores than male patients on peer exchanges,body feelings and subjective quality of life satisfaction; the satisfaction level of experience depression for rural children was lower than urban children.Conclusions The subjective life quality of vast majority of hospitalized children is about the general level,but some patients still experience serious anxiety,depression and other negative psychological emotion.Nurses should guide the patients positively and specially,considering the influence of their gender and living places while providing caring.Based on the health education of patients and their family,we promote them to face the disease.

Objective To investigat the changes of hemodynamics and arterial blood gas during the establishment of ECMO model and provide an ideal platform for the study of the mechanism of DCD protection using ECMO, a porcine model of controlled donors of cardiac death (CDCD) with extracorporeal support was established in the paper. Methods Eight domestic crossbred pigs were anes-thetized, atracurium (1mg/kg) and heparin (150~200 U/kg) was administered and the ventilator was discontinued while the animal was under deep anesthesia to kill the animal.Meanwhile, blood was drained from the left jugular vein catheter into the ECMO circuit and re-turned into the left femoral artery to establish the porcine model of CDCD with extracorporeal support . The average blood press and arterial blood gas were ministered at normal, cardiac arrest and ECMO supporting 1 h, 3 h and 5 h. Results The model of CDCD with extra-corporeal support was established successfully.Two animals restored the beating of the heart and the high doses of potassium chloride were given untill cardiac arrest during extracorporeal support.Blood gases throughout the apneic time showed a severe hypoxemia and acidosis, pH and PaO2 reduced to 7.09 ±0.24 and 5.3 ±0.93mmHg respective-ly, which can be improved during extracorporeal support.MAP and PaO2 were maintained over 300mmHg and 65mmHg respectively. Conclusion A new porcine model of controlled donors of cardiacdeath with extracorporeal support has been successfully established and showed to be feasible for related pathophysiological research work.
