ObjectiveTo study the role of chemokines and their receptors in peripheral blood in the pathogenesis of breast cancer in elderly patients.MethodsSerum levels of regulated on activation normal T-cell expressed and secreted(RANTES),macrophage inflammatory protein-3 α (MIP-3α ) and stromal cell derived factor-1(SDF-1) were determined by double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) in 30 elderly patients with breast cancer(breast cancer group) and 30 normal controls (control group).Meanwhile,chemokine receptors,CC chemokine receptor(CCR)5,CCR6 and CXC chemokine receptor(CXCR) 4 on peripheral blood CD3+ T-cell in two groups were analyzed by flow cytometry.ResultsSerum levels of RANTES,MIP-3 α and SDF-1 in breast cancer group were significantly higher than those in control group [ (27.9 ± 16.6) μ g/L vs.( 12.6 ± 4.2) μ g/L,( 10.9 ± 7.1 ) μ g/L vs.(5.4 ± 3.5 )μg/L,(339.4 ±94.6) ng/L vs. (195.0 ±70.8) ng/L,P ＜0.01].There was no significant difference in expressions of CCR5,CCR6 and CXCR4 on peripheral blood CD3+ T-cell between two groups(P ＞ 0.05).ConclusionThe abnormal increase of serum levels of RANTES,MIP-3 α and SDF-1 in peripheral blood may play role in the carcinogenesis and progress of breast cancer in elderly patients.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the antimicrobial-resistant genes and consanguinity in multi-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa(MRPA) isolated from the 98th Hospital of PLA,Huzhou,Zhejiang Province,China.METHODS Thirty strains of MRPA were isolated from hospitalized patients between Sep 2003 and Oct 2004.Twenty four kinds of genes of blaTEM,blaSHV,blaOXA-10 group,blaPER,blaVEB,blaIMP,blaVIM,blaGES,blaCARB,blaDHA,blaMIR,aac(3)-Ⅰ,aac(3)-Ⅱ,aac(3)-Ⅲ,aac(3)-Ⅳ,aac(6′)-Ⅰ,aac(6′)-Ⅱ,ant(3″)-Ⅰ,ant(2″)-Ⅰ,aph(3′)-Ⅵ,oprD,qacE△1-sul1,catB,and cml1 were analyzed by PCR and verified by DNA sequencing.Resistant-genes cluster analysis was performed by Average.RESULTS In 30 strains of MRPA the positive rate of genes of blaTEM,blaOXA-10 group,blaCARB,aac(3)-Ⅱ,aac(6′)-Ⅰ,aac(6′)-Ⅱ,ant(3″)-Ⅰ,ant(2″)-Ⅰ,qacE△1-sul1,and cml1 were 66.7%,3.3%,3.3%,76.7%,3.3%,33.3%,53.3%,26.7%,83.3%,and 3.3%,respectively,and the deficiency rate of oprD gene was 90.0%.The gene of blaOXA-10 group was sequenced and determined to be blaOXA-10 subtype ESBL gene.But the rest of genes were all negative.According to the cluster analysis of resistant-gene,30 strains of MRPA isolated could be classified into four subgroups,which were caused by the infection in hospital.CONCLUSIONS At least 10 kinds of antimicrobial-resistant genes exist in MRPA isolates,and the deficiency rate of oprD gene is very high.MRPA can induce clone transmitted hospital infection and it has fulminant prevalence.

Objective To investigate the training methods and evaluation parameters for donor lung procurement technique in swine models. Methods The surgical skills of donor lung procurement in 15 swine models were summarized. The operation time, objective evaluation parameters before lung perfusion, gross observation after lung perfusion, the type and frequency of intraoperative errors were assessed. Results All donor lung procurement surgeries were successfully completed in 15 swine models. The mean time interval from skin incision to lung perfusion was 22.6 min. Prior to lung perfusion, the oxygenation index of the donor lung was (501±68) mmHg, (404±100) mL (under the pressure of 15 mmHg) for the tidal volume and (29±4) mL/cmH2O for the static compliance. Along with the increasing surgical frequency, the oxygenation index and tidal volume were improved. Favorable lung inflation was obtained after lung perfusion in a majority of swine models. Intraoperatively, multiple operating errors occurred including dissection error, pulmonary arterial intubation error and procedure error, etc. As the frequency of operation increased, the frequency of surgical errors was significantly decreased. Conclusions After certain training for donor lung procurement in swine models, the incidence of intraoperative procedure error is significantly reduced and the quality of the donor lung tends to be enhanced. Objective parameters, such as oxygenation index and the gross shape of the donor lung can be utilized to evaluate the levels of surgical techniques.

ObjectiveTo study the effect of Bushen Huoxuetang on the apoptosis and the expression of B-cell lymphoma （Bcl-2）-associated X protein （Bax）/ Bcl-2 and cleaved cysteine-containing aspartate proteolytic enzyme-3 （cleaved Caspase-3） in the nude mouse model of bone metastasis of breast cancer， and explore the mechanism of Bushen Huoxuetang in inhibiting bone destruction. MethodThirty BALB/c female nude mice were randomly assigned into blank group （n=6） and model group （n=24）. The suspension of 4T1 breast cancer cells was injected into the tibia of mouse right lower limb to establish model of bone metastasis of breast cancer. The successfully modeled nude mice were randomly assigned into model group， Bushen Huoxuetang group， zoledronic acid group， and combined drug group， with 6 mice in each group. Bushen Huoxuetang was administrated at a dose of 36.67 g·kg^-1， once a day， and zoledronic acid was administrated by subcutaneous injection at a dose of 100 μg·kg^-1， twice a week. The combined drug group was administrated with the same doses of Bushen Huoxuetang group by gavage and zoledronic acid by subcutaneous injection. The mice in the blank group and the model group were administrated with the same volume of distilled water by gavage for 14 days. On the next day at the end of drug administration， the mice were sacrificed by cervical dislocation. The general situation and weight changes of the mice were examined. The right lower limb was collected， and X-ray scanning and hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining methods were used for observation of pathological changes in the bone. The terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick-end labeling （TUNEL） was employed to detect the apoptosis of bone tissue in nude mice， and Western blot to determine the expression of Bax/Bcl-2 and cleaved Caspase-3 in the bone tissue. ResultCompared with the blank group， the modeling reduced the body weight （P<0.01） and increased the right lower limb weight of the nude mice （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， Bushen Huoxuetang， zoledronic acid， and their combination increased the body weight （P<0.01） and decreased the right lower limb weight （P<0.01）. Compared with the blank group， the other groups showed obvious tumor cell atypia， deep nuclear staining， and clear bone metastasis， and the model group showed obvious osteolytic damage in right lower limb and loss of proximal tibia and knee joint. Compared with the model group， Bushen Huoxuetang， zoledronic acid， and their combination reduced the osteolytic lesions in the right lower limb and recovered part of the bone structure， demonstrating an inhibitory effect on bone destruction. The TUNEL assay showed that the model group had lower apoptosis rate of bone metastatic tumor cells than the blank group， Bushen Huoxuetang group， zoledronic acid group， and combined drug group （P<0.01）. Compared with the blank group， the modeling down-regulated the expression of Bax and cleaved Caspase-3 （P<0.01） and up-regulated the expression of Bcl-2 （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， Bushen Huoxuetang， zoledronic acid， and their combination up-regulated the expression of Bax （P<0.01） and cleaved Caspase-3 （P<0.05， P<0.01） and down-regulated the expression of Bcl-2 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionBushen Huoxuetang may inhibit bone destruction in the nude mouse model of bone metastasis of breast cancer by up-regulating the expression of Bax， down-regulating the expression of Bcl-2， activating cleaved Caspase-3， and further inducing apoptosis.
