BACKGROUND: Placenta mesenchymal stem cells have become hot spots in stem cells study in recent years because of its advantages. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the biological characteristics of amniotic mesenchymal stem cells and amnion epithelial cells, and to explore the feasibility of amniotic mesenchymal stem cells and amnion epithelial cells applied as seed cells in three-dimensional liquid culture to construct the tissue-engineered skin. METHODS:The amniotic mesenchymal stem cells and amnion epithelial cells were obtained by using multi-step digestion with trypsin and col agenase;then the flow cytometry, reverse transcription-PCR and immunofluorescent staining techniques were adopted to identify the surface molecular markers, stem cellcharacteristics and keratinocytes similarity respectively. Based on these data, amniotic mesenchymal stem cells and amnion epithelial cells used as seed cells together with rat type Ⅰ col agen matrix were adopted for three-dimensional liquid culture. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Flow cytometry test showed that amniotic mesenchymal stem cells and amnion epithelial cells cultured in vitro could highly express CD90, CD73 and CD105, and could not express the hemopoietic stem cellmarker of CD34 and MHC-class Ⅱ molecular HLA-DR. Reverse transcription-PCR results detected that amniotic mesenchymal stem cells could express stem cellcharacteristic genes CMCY and NANOG;amnion epithelial cells could express stem cellcharacteristic genes CMCY and KLF4, showing that both amniotic mesenchymal stem cells and amnion epithelial cells have stem cellproperties. Reverse transcription-PCR results showed that amniotic mesenchymal stem cells could express keratinocytes characteristic genes K19,β1-integrin and K8;amnion epithelial cells could express K19,β1-integrin, K5 and K8. Immunofluorescence staining results showed amnion epithelial cells could express keratinocytes proliferation related protein K14, which revealed that there was certain similarity in the mRNA expression between keratinocytes and amnion epithelial cells, and indicating that it has the potential to differentiate into keratinocytes. Tissue-engineered skin was successful y constructed by using amniotic mesenchymal stem cells and amnion epithelial cells, hematoxylin-eosin staining section showed that it has certain skin structure, and amnion epithelial cells had a preliminary differentiation. Al these prove that it is feasible to construct human skin tissues with amniotic mesenchymal stem cells and amniotic epithelial cells through the three-dimensional culture.

Purpose To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and the survival outcomes of invasive lobular carcinoma. Methods A retrospective analysis of 98 patients with invasive lobular carcinoma and 530 invasive carcinoma of no special type was performed in order to observe the histological features and the clinical outcomes of invasive lobular carcinoma. Results Median follow-up was 68. 5 months for invasive lobular carcinoma and 67 months for invasive carcinoma of no special type. Invasive lobular carcinoma presented with a larger tumor size, more histopathological grade 2 tumors, increased rate of hormonal receptor positivity, human epider-mal growth factor 2 (HER-2) negativity, and had a lower proliferative index as compared to invasive carcinoma of no special type, more frequently presented with the luminal A subtype (P<0. 001). The classical invasive lobular carcinoma presented with a smaller tumor size, to have a lower histological grade and proliferative index compared to the non-classic type, and more frequently presented with the luminal A subtype, whereas the non-classic invasive lobular carcinoma patients more frequently presented with the luminal B, HER-2 overexpression, or triple negative subtype (P=0. 035). A statistically significant difference in the outcome was observed at un-ivariate analysis for patients with non-classic for disease-free survival (P=0. 043) and for overall survival (P=0. 048), as compared with patients with classical invasive lobular carcinoma. The disease-free survival difference between the invasive lobular carcinoma and the invasive carcinoma of no special type was not significant (P=0. 537), and the overall survival rates were not statistically different between the two groups (P=0. 397). A statistically significant difference of overall survival was observed at multivariate analysis for patients with HER-2 positive and triple negative subtypes versus patients with luminal A invasive lobular carcinoma (P=0. 015, P=0. 016) . Conclusions The outcome of invasive lobular carcinoma is significantly correlated with histological and immunohistochemi-cally defined molecular subtypes. New tailored strategies should be explored in these subgroups of patients with poor outcome.

AIM: To observe the influence of overexpression of ?-synuclein on the cultured SH-SY5Y cells. METHODS: The plasmid of ?-synuclein-pcDNA_3 was transfected into SH-SY5Y cells with LipofectAMINE. The expression of ?-synuclein was determined by anti-?-synuclein immunocytochemistry. The intracellular reactive oxygen species was determined with 2', 7'-dichlorofluorescein diacetate (DCF-DA) by using a FACSCAN flow cytometer and fluorescent microscope. The intracellular content of reduced GSH was detected with glutathione assay kit by spectrophotometer. RESULTS: The ?-synuclein was expressed in cultured SH-SY5Y cells transfected with the plasmid of ?-synuclein-pcDNA_3. The DCF loading analysis and the intracellular level of reduced GSH suggested that the transfected cells were under oxidative stress. CONCLUSION: Overexpression and accumulation of ?-synuclein in SH-SY5Y cells increase intracellular reactive oxygen species levels, it is suggested therefore that the ?-synuclein does play an important role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease.

Purpose To investigate the expression of EZH2 and p53 protein in breast cancer and to analyze their relationship with the clinical pathologic characteristics and prognosis. Methods The expression of EZH2 and p53 protein were detected by immunohisto-chemical method in 50 cases of breast adenosis tissues, 92 cases of breast invasive lobular carcinoma ( ILC) and 200 cases of breast in-vasive ductal carcinoma ( IDC) , and their correlation was also analyzed. Results There was no statistical significance of EZH2 be-tween ILC and IDC (P>0. 016 7), while its expression in breast adenosis tissues was lower than that in ILC and IDC (P<0. 016 7). In breast cancer the expression of EZH2 protein were not correlated with patient age, menopausal status, histological types, and pTNM stage. In contrast, its expression correlated with the tumor size, lymph node metastasis, molecular subtype, survival status and p53 (P<0. 05). There was no statistical significance of p53 between ILC and breast adenosis tissues (P>0. 016 7), while its expression in IDC was higher than that in ILC and breast adenosis tissues (P<0. 016 7). Its expression had no related to patient age, menopausal status, tumor size, lymph node metastasis in breast cancer, but related to histological types, pTNM stage, molecular subtype and sur-vival status (P<0. 05). The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed the expression of EZH2 and p53 had correlated with disease-free and overall survival rates of breast cancer (P<0. 05). Multivariate COX regression analysis showed that the expression of EZH2 and p53 were independent affecting factors to breast cancer patients. Conclusion The expression of EZH2 and p53 protein increase in the breast adenosis, ILC and IDC gradually, and they have positive correlation. The expression levels of EZH2 and p53 protein have im-portant value to evaluate the prognosis of breast cancer patients.

OBJECTIVETo study the quantified indices for describing the distributional status of diseases in the spatial point pattern analysis, and provide the a statistic in disease prevention and control.
METHODSG function, F function, J function and K function were summarized based on the inter-case distances from the view of spatial point pattern analysis. Through the introduction of the basic principles, these were used to analyze the data of acute schistosomiasis in the Guichi District, Chizhou City, Anhui province, with the study distances being from 0 to 3000 meters with 50-meter intervals. The findings were also validated by means of spatial moving scan window performed in SaTScan software.
RESULTSA total of 83 cases of acute schistosomiasis identified in Guichi District, and the point map showed that these cases were mainly distributed around the Yangtze and Qiupu rivers. The computational methods and characteristics of the four quantified indices were obtained. These acute schistosomiasis cases were also explored by using these indices, and the results showed that C and K functions were above 95% confidence interval. While, F and J functions were below 95% confidence interval. Ml these four indices showed that spatial clustering existed in the acute cases, which was consistent with the results of spatial moving scan window method. The latter method also found a most likely cluster, the coordinate of the circle center is (30.65 N, 117.44 E), radius is 2.69 km, and relative risk is 12.78 (DIR = 32. 80, P = 0. 0001).
CONCLUSIONThe quantified indices to describe the distributional status of diseases have not only solved the obstacle that spatial point pattern map which could only be analyzed qualitatively, but also supplied a theoretical foundation to deepen spatial clustering analysis.
