Objective To evaluate the relationship between aberrant crypt foci(ACF) and colon cancer by observing the sequential development of ACF in cancer models of rats. Methods The colon cancer models in 60 Wistar rats were established by subcutaneously injection of dimethylhydrasine (DMH) once a week for 18 weeks. The rats were sacrificed and the colon tissues stained by methylene blue were observed with a stereomicroscope. Results There were two types of ACF, named cACF and dACF. The microscopic findings in dACF were similar with that in early colon cancer, while those in cACF were not. The expression of β-catenin in cACF and dACF were 4. 84% and 100% (P =0. 000) , respectively, and the expression of MMP-7 were 7. 87% and 81.82% (P =0. 000), respectively. There was no significant difference in expression of β-catenin and MMP-7 between dACF and colon cancer ( P > 0. 05 ). Conclusion The microscopic and molecular changes in dACF is similar with that in colon cancer, and dACF may progress to cancer through Wnt pathway.

In this paper, metabolic networks of the Corynebacterium glutamicum GWY020 and the two de-rivatives carrying additional mutations HUI821and GUI089 were established and modified. The concentra-tions of extra-cellular metabolites were determined under sub-steady-state (50 h~52 h) of the batch culture. The metabolic flux distribution maps of the three strains were obtained, compared and analyzed. These re-sults indicate that the introduction of analog supersensitive marker or analog resistant marker skew the metabolic flux towards the formation of L-Arginine. This study revealed the usefulness of the metabolic flux analysis as a tool for verification of existing production strains. The analysis may play an important role in helping us to rationally re-design metabolism for further improvement of fermentation process.

Objective To determine the value of differential time to positivity ( DTTP ) of blood culture for the diagnosis of catheter-related bloodstream infection ( CRBSI ) in patients with solid tumors in intensive care unit ( ICU ). Methods A retrospective study was conducted. 615 pairs of peripheral vein blood cultures and instantaneous catheter tip blood culture of 615 patients admitted to ICU of Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital were collected from August 2011 to March 2014. The DTTP method and ( or ) semi quantitative culture of catheter tip were compared. CRBSI was diagnosed when both cultures were positive for the same microorganism and DTTP ≥2 hours ( 120 minutes ). The result of this procedure was compared with that of organism obtained using the semi quantitative culture of blood at catheter tip with≥15 cfu. Based on the clinical diagnosis, the reliability of two kinds of laboratory examination was compared for the diagnosis of CRBSI by plotting receiver operator characteristic curve ( ROC curve ). Results The result of 615 cases suspected of having CRBSI were analyzed during the study period. Of these, 440 episodes were excluded because cultures were negative for blood obtained through peripheral vein and central vein. Eight episodes were excluded because only peripheral vein blood culture was positive and 57 episodes were excluded because of only central vein blood culture was positive, 68 pairs of blood cultures were excluded due to the presence of multiple catheters and repeated blood withdrawals. Two cases of polymicrobial cultures were excluded from the final analysis due to the difficulty in determining the time of positive result for each individual microorganism. Ten cases in 42 cases of suspected cases of CRBSI were excluded from analysis because catheter was not removed, therefore culture from catheter tip could not be obtained. Using the DTTP method, 14 out of 17 CRBSI cases were diagnosed with DTTP≥120 minutes, while 3 cases were missed;the semi quantitative catheter tip culture was positive in 13 cases, and in 4 cases it was neglected. In 2 cases of CRBSI it was missed by both methods. The area under the ROC curve ( AUC ) of DTTP, catheter tip culture and the combination method was 0.912, 0.882 and 0.941 for diagnosis of CRBSI, respectively. Validity values for the diagnosis of CRBSI for DTTP were:sensitivity 82.35%, specificity 92.31%, positive predictive value 93.33%and negative predictive value 80.00%, and they were higher than those of the catheter tip culture method only ( 76.47%, 84.62%, 86.67% and 73.33%). The specificity and positive predictive CRBSI combination of the two methods in the diagnosis value were up to 100%, the sensitivity ( 88.24%) and negative predictive value ( 86.67%) was also increased, but no significant differences were found with DTTP method (χ2=0.00, P=1.00;χ2=0.00, P=0.98;χ2=0.00, P=0.98;χ2=0.00, P=0.98 ). Conclusions DTTP can be a valid method recommended for CRBSI diagnosis in critically ill patients with acceptable sensitivity, good specificity as well as positive predictive value. DTTP combined with other clinical symptoms can not only avoid unnecessary catheter withdrawal, but it also can help obtain the optimal treatment time and strategy.
