Objective To evaluate the feasibility of testing the high methylation of ppENK gene in stool with methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (MSP) assay in pancreatic cancer diagnosis.Methods Twenty-four fresh stool samples of pancreatic cancer patients and six healthy control samples were collected.The methylation status of ppENK gene in all the stool samples was detected by MSP assay.The positive rate of wild-type ppENK gene in all the stool samples was determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR).And 10 non wild-type ppENK gene negative pancreatic cancer samples were collected,and K-ras gene mutation was detected by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP).The single cell suspension of pancreatic cancer PC3 cell line was added into stool sample from the same healthy individual,the positive rate of ppENK gene methylation was detected by MSP assay.The minimum number of pancreatic cancer cell was calculated when methylation was positive.Results The rate of methylation detection in 30 samples was 0 (0/30); and the rate of non-methylation detection was 10% (3/30).The rate of wild-type ppENK detection was 6.7% (2/30).By PCR-RFLP assay,eight were successfully amplified and seven had mutation in 12th code of K-ras gene in 10 selected wild-type ppENK gene negative pancreatic cancer samples.The minimum number of pancreatic cancer cells needed for ppENK methylation band positive detected by MSP was 50 cell/ml.Conclusion Detecting ppENK gene methylation status in stool samples of pancreatic cancer patients by MSP assay has not yet become the method of pancreatic cancer screening and diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the role of tyrosine kinase Src in a murine C.albicans infection model. Methods Observed cell proliferation by alarmarblue assay at 2, 24 and 48 h after Src inhibitor PP2 treatment. Phagocytosis was determined by a fluorometric assay. Cytokine TNF-αand IL-10 production was detected by ELISA. Results The 0~33.3 μmol/L PP2 had no effect on cell proliferation after PP2 treatment for 2 h. When the PP2 treatment extended to 24 or 48 h, PP2 (11.1, 33.3μmol/L) showed significant inhibition on cell proliferation with 78%, 9%, and 54%,13%, respectively. At 48 h after 11.1μmol/L PP2 treatment, the internalization of C.albicans in macrophage is significantly inhibited, contributing to the inhibition of cell proliferation. However, the 11.1 and 33.3μmol/L PP2 significantly inhibited the cytokine TNF-αand IL-10 production during C.albicans infection (P<0.01). Conclusion Src kinase played an important role during C.albicans infection, especially for the cytokine TNF-αand IL-10 production.

Objective:To investigate the expression of protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5)in the gastric cancer tissue,and to explore the relationship between the PRMT5 expression and the occurrence and the clinicopathologic characteristics of gastric cancer, and to find a new treatment target for gastric cancer.Methods:Forty-three cases of gastric cancer tissue and 15 cases of adjacent normal gastric tissue were used as gastric cancer group and control group,respectively.The immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of PRMT5 in the specimens.Results:Compared with control group (13.3%),the expression rate of PRMT5 in gastric cancer group (72.1%)was significantly increased (P < 0.05).In control group,there was some weak positive expression of PRMT5,the expressions were weak or moderate,the tan particles mainly located in the cytoplasm,less in the nuclei.In high differentiation gastric cancer specimens,the tan particles mainly located in the cytoplasm and more in nuclei, characterized by medium or strong expressions. In poorly differentiated and undifferentiated gastric cancer specimens,the tan particles mainly located in the cytoplasm and nucleus,and strongly expressed in nucleus.The higher expression of PRMT5 was associated with the size of tumor diameter,degree of differentition,depth of invasion,degree of lymph node metastasis,and TNM stage (P <0.05 or P <0.01),but had no correlation with the gender and age of patients (P >0.05).Conclusion:High expression of PRMT5 may play an important role in the occurrence and development of gastric cancer.

Objective To explore the differentiation potential of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC) to enteric neuron in vitro and to seek proper induction methods.Methods BMSC were harves- ted from male rats and cultured in DMEM supplemented with 20% fetal bovine serum,and characterized by flow cytometry.At passage 6,BMSC were pre-induced by basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF,10 ng/ml) for 24 h,then induced in two groups:glial cell-line derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) group, 10 ng/ml GDNF in fetal gut condition medium (FGCM) for 10 d.Vitamin A acid (VA) group,VA, zinc in FGCM for 10 d.The expressions of neuronal markers,neural specific enolase (NSE) and neu- rofilament (NF),glial cell marker,glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP),enteric neuronal marker,pro- tein gene production 9.5(PGP9.5),nitric oxide synthase (nNOS),enteric neural transmitter,vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) were detected by fluorescent immunohistochemistry method.Results The cul- tured BMSC were CD90 positive and CD45 negative on flow cytometry.After 10 d of induction,a certain number of cells adopted neuron-like morphological changes and showed the expressions of NSE,NF, PGPg.5,nNOS and VIP without the expression of GFAP by fluorescent immunohistoehemistry method in both groups.But in GDNF group,the positive rate of NF,PGP9.5,nNOS and VIP was significantly higher than that in VA group (75.6%?8.4% vs 48.5?7.5%;57.7%?6.5% vs 35.7%?7.2% 46.6%?5.4% vs 30.5%?6.6%;72.3%?6.7% vs 40.4%?7.4%;P<0.01).Conclusion BMSC can be induced to differentate into enteric neuron in vitro by different methods.GDNF with FGCM can induce higher rate of enteric neuron like cells compared with VA etc.
