Objective To study the effect of survivin gene expression on the lymphocyte’s proliferation and function in cultured K562 cells. Methods The constructed recombinant vector pEGFP-C1-survivin and the plasmid pTZU6+1-survivin encoding short hairpin RNA of survivin were transfected into K562 cells respectively to generate K562/survivin+ cells and K562/survivin-cells. K562/survivin+ cells were selected by G418. The survivin mRNA and protein levels in the 3 kinds of cells (K562/survivin+,K562 and K562/survivin-) were detected by semi-quantitative RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry methods. The peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from healthy subjects were co-cultured with these 3 cells respectively in mixed lymphocyte-tumor cell culture (MLTC). Lymphocyte proliferation in the supernatant was evaluated by MTT assay. Nature killer activity was detected by flow cytometry and IFN-? level was measured by ELISA assay. Results Proliferation index in K562/survivin+ group was much lower than that in the other 2 groups (P

Objective To analyze the sperm DNA fragmentation in different degrees of varicocele (VC) infertility patients after high ligation of the spermatic vein. Methods There were 57 patients with different degrees of VC infertility patients. 27 patients had been diagnosed with level two VC, and 30 patients had been diagnosed with level three VC. All patients' sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) were detected and calculated at preoperative one month and postoperative three months. Results 57 VC infertility patients were all suffered from laparoscopic high ligation of the spermatic vein on both sides. There was no statistically difference on preoperative sperm DFI between level two and level three patients (P > 0.05). All patients' sperm DFI were decreased after laparoscopic (P < 0.05), and level two VC infertility patients had significant greater progress than level three patients (P < 0.05). Conclusion Laparoscopic high ligation of the spermatic vein can effectively improve VC infertility patients sperm DFI. It would be better for level two VC infertility patients.
