Objective To investigate the incidence and risk factors of human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16) infec?tion among women through health screenings in Tianjin urban area. Methods A total of 2 000 women from Tianjin urban area were recruited for this study, and potential risk factors were investigated by questionnaire as well as by collecting cervi?cal exfoliated cells from the participants. HPV type was examined using polymerase chain reaction and pyrosequencing tech?nology, then the risk factors of HPV16 infection were examined by chi square test and the multiple factor logistic regression analysis. Results Among those 2 000 women who received health screenings, a total of 271 cases were HPV positive (13.55%). HPV16 accounts for the most common human papillomavirus types (39.5%, 107/271) while HPV58 account for 15.13%(41/271)and HPV18 account for 9.59% (26/271). Factors related to HPV16 infection were investigated include smoking history, initial age of sex (>25 years old or not) , number of pregnancies (≥2 or not), number of sexual partners (≥2 or not) and contraception measures (condom or other ways) with χ2=6.268,8.540,4.951,7.123,6.053,5.019, respectively. (P < 0.05). Age, alcohol intake, education level and previous gynecologial examination did not differ significantly among HPV16 positive patients compared to those with negative HPV. Multiple factor Logistic regression model analysis showed that the independent factors were smoking history and initial age for sex(≤25 years old)(P<0.05). Conclusion HPV16 is the most common type of cervical infection among women in Tianjin urban area. Changing inappropriate sexual behavior and smoking cessation are effective measures to prevent HPV16 infection and reduce incidence of cervical cancer.

Objective To investigate the cervical human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, genotypes and related high risk factors in 459 women of annual health examination. Methods A total of 459 cervical cytology specimens were de-tected with nest PCR and pyrosequencing methods. Questionnaires were collected simultaneously and the risk factors of HPV infection were analyzed. Results The detection rate of HPV-positive samples was 17.9%. Seven kinds of high-risk genotypes of HPV were found. The detection of HPV 16 was the most common (9.8%), followed by HPV58 (7.0%) and HPV18 (5.2%). The detection rates of simplex infection, dual infections and multiple infections were 9.6%, 4.8%and 1.5%respectively. The risk factors for HPV infection included alcohol consumption,income <3 000 yuan/ month, sexual part-ners>1, frequency of sexual activity>4 times/month and cervical erosion (P<0.05). Conclusion HPV DNA genotyping can provide important reference for HPV screening at early time and the application of HPV vaccines, which also provide sig-nificant evidence for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cervical cancer at early stage for the high risk population.

Objective To observe the effect of ulinastatin on the expression of interleukin 15 (IL-15), connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in rat peritoneal mesothelial cells (RPMCs) induced by high glucose. Methods RPMCs were isolated, cultured and passaged by trypsin, then identified. The third generation of cultured RPMCs were used in the experiment. RPMCs were divided into normal control group, high glucose (1.5%, 2.5%, 4.25%) for 6 hours and 12 hours, high glucose (2.5%) for 3, 6, 12, 24 hours or ulinastatin (160, 320, 640U/ml) for 12 hours. IL-15 mRNA was detected by real-time PCR. IL-15 and CTGF protein in supernatants was detected by ELISA. MDA protein was detected by TBAS. Results Compared with the control group, the expression of IL-15, CTGF and MDA was significantly increased in the groups stimulated by high glucose (P＜0.05) in dose- and time-dependent manner. Ulinastatin could significantly decrease the expression of IL-15, CTGF and MDA induced by high glucose in dosedependent manner both in protein and gene levels (P＜0.05). Conclusions High glucose can up-regulate the expression of IL-15, CTGF and MDA in RPMCs. Ulinastatin can reverse these changes.

Objective:This work aims determine the expression of the neurotensin (NTS) gene in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) subgrouping using immunohistochemical staining (IHC) as well as to evaluate the correlation between the activation of NTS/IL-8 pathway in HCC and inflammatory response in microenvironment and epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) in cancer and in the prognosis of patients. Methods:Tumor tissues and corresponding adjacent normal tissue were collected from 64 cases of HCC patients. The expression levels of NTS protein and multiple inflammation and EMT-related proteins, including IL-8, VEGF, MMP9, CD68, E-Cadherin,β-Catenin, and Vimentin, were examined in 64 cases of paraffin-embedded HCC tissues using the immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining method. The clinical outcome and overall survival (OS) among 64 cases of HCC patients were compared. Results:We found that the frequency of NTS-expressing tissues among all HCC samples was 17.19%(11/64). Significantly increased IL-8 protein was confirmed in 90.91%of NTS+HCC samples and was positively correlated with the levels of NTS protein in cancer tissues (P=0.036), which implied the dysfunctional activation of NTS/IL-8 pathway in HCC. The levels of VEGF and MMP9 were significantly correlated with the co-expression of NTS and IL-8 in HCC. Evident features of EMT, including decreased membrane expression of E-Cadherin and increased accumulation of cytoplasmicβ-Catemin and Vimentin, were found in NTS+IL-8+samples. The co-expression of NTS and IL-8 in cancer was significantly correlated with the clinical outcomes of patients, as the mortality rate of NTS+IL-8+HCC patients is 2.5-fold higher than that of others after surgery (P=0.022).Accordingly, the OS of NTS+IL-8+HCC patients significantly decreased (24.65±4.45 m vs. 75.79±16.32 m, P=0.013), and these patients are at a higher risk of death at an expected hazard ratio (HR) of 3.457. Conclusion:The NTS/IL-8 pathway is dysfunctionally activated in a subgroup of HCC samples. Highly expressed NTS is associated with increased inflammatory response in microenvironment, enhanced EMT in cancer, and worse prognosis in HCC patients.

Carbon monoxide has been proved to be an important signal molecule in body. Transition metal carbonyl compounds are solidified form of carbon monoxide. Numerous studies have shown that Ruthenium carbonyl carbon monoxide releasing molecules have a strong pharmacological activity. In this paper, five Ruthenium (II) carbonyl CORMs 1-5 were synthesized and their toxicology, tissue distribution and interaction with blood endogenous substances were investigated. The results showed CORMs' IC50 to fibroblasts are ranged from 212.9 to 2089.2 micromol x L(-1). Their oral LD50 to mouse is between 800 to 1600 mg x kg(-1). After repeated administration, CORMs 1 and CORMs 5 haven't shown an obvious influence to rats' liver and kidney function, but caused the injury to liver and kidney cells. The in vivo distribution result revealed the majority of CORMs were distributed in blood, liver and kidney, only a small part of CORMs distributed in lung, heart and spleen. They could scarcely cross the blood-brain barrier and distribute to brain. The non-CO ligands in structure have an obvious relevance to their in vivo absorption and distribution. Interestingly, CORMs could enhance the fluorescence of bovine serum albumin, and this enhancement was in direct proportion with the concentration of CORMs. Under different conditions, interaction of CORMs with glutathione got different type of products, one is Ruthenium (II) tricarbonyl complexes, and Ruthenium (II) dicarbonyl complexes.

Graphene ( GN) and multiwalled carbon nanotubes ( MWCNT) composites were coated on glassy carbon electrode ( GCE ) and then poly ( nicotinic acid ) ( PNA ) was electrodeposited on the modified electrode. The electrochemical behavior of pyridoxine hydrochloride ( VB6 ) was investigated at the modified electrode by cyclic voltammetry ( CV ) and differential pulse voltammetry ( DPV ) . Results showed the oxidation current of VB6 at the GN-MWCNT/PNA/GCE was obviously larger than that at GCE, PNA/GCE and GN/MWCNT/GCE. The oxidation process of VB6 was an irreversible diffusion-controlled process involving one electron and two protons. The liner range between the peak current intensity of DPV and the concentration of VB6 was 0 . 05-200 μmol/L with a detection limit of 0 . 02 μmol/L ( S/N=3 ) . The modified electrode showed a good reproducibility with a relative standard deviation of 3 . 1% ( n=8 ) . The proposed method was applied to the analysis of vitamin B6 in vitamin B6 tablets and compound vitamin B tablets with recoveries between 96 . 1%-104 . 5%.
