The development of proteomic technique has sparked new focus on novel protein markers for many diseases including cancer. Urine is one of the most useful biofluids for routine testing to provide an ideal resource for the discovery of novel biomarkers, with the advantage over tissue biopsy samples due to the ease and the less invasive nature of urinary collection. This review summarizes urinary protein tumor markers found in prostate cancer, bladder cancer, lung cancer and breast cancer that have shown potential for urogenital and non-urogenital cancer, so as to provide reference on high sensitive and high specific urinary protein tumor markers for early prevention, early diagnosis and treatment of cancer.

Objective To observe the effects of 7,8-dihydroxyflavone (7,8-DHF) on hypoxia induced endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) in human proximal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2).Methods The mRNA level of ERS associated biomarkers was evaluated by RT-PCR assay in cell hypoxia damaged model.And HK-2 cells were pretreated with different concentrations of 7,8-DHF through CCK-8 assay;meanwhile CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein homologous protein (CHOP),Cyr61,Akt and p-Akt were determined by western blotting assay.Moreover,HK-2 cells were pretreated by LY294002,a kind of PI3K/Akt inhibitor,to inhibit the PI3K/Akt signaling,and its effects on protein level induced by 7,8-DHF was detected.HK-2 cells was then over-expressed Cyr61 and exposed to hypoxia Apoptosis rate and CHOP expression were determined.Results Compared to hypoxia group (P ＜ 0.01),Hypoxia for 12h was effective in inducing ERS (P ＜ 0.01),while pretreatment with 7,8-DHF (100 μmol/L) increased cell proliferation significantly.The protein expressions of Cyr61 and p-Akt in H+7,8-DHF group were higher,but the level of CHOP was decreased (P ＜ 0.05).With LY294002 pretreated,the expression of Cyr61,p-Akt was down-regulated (all P ＜ 0.05) while the expression of CHOP was up-regulated (P ＜ 0.05).In comparison to empty plasmid group,when cells were transfected with over-expression of Cyr61 plasmid and exposed to hypoxia,the number of apoptotic tubular cells was decreased (P ＜ 0.01).And over-expression of Cyr61 significantly reducedCHOP expression compared with the empty plasmid group (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Pretreatment of 7,8-DHF could protect cells from hypoxia injury and inhibit ERS,which may involve the Akt-Cyr61 signaling pathway.

Objective:To analyze the clinical features and genetic factors of neonatal 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type10 (HSD10) deficiency.Methods:The clinical characteristics and genetic test results of a child with HSD10 deficiency coming from Children′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University in April 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.The keywords" 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 10 deficiency" or " 2-Methyl3-Hydroxybutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency" or " HSD10" , etc.were searched in various databases, including CNKI, Wanfang, Weipu, Embase and PubMed to review the cases collected from all published data until May 31, 2020.Results:The patient was a newborn male who developed symptoms on the first day after birth.The main signs were metabolic acidosis, increased blood ammonia and lactate, and hypotonia.Trio whole exom sequencing in the patient and his parents identified hemizygous NM001037811: c.650G>A, p.R217Q in the HSD17B10 gene that is inherited from the mother.Since the child died on the third day after birth, no further central nervous system examination was performed.The mother of the child has intellectual disability, the sibling sister is normal and the HSD17B10 locus is wild type.By lite-rature reviewing, 5 newborn cases with clear medical records and genetic test results were listed.All patients were male, and had onset of HSD10 deficiency within 1 week after birth.The main phenotypes include metabolic acidosis (increased blood ammonia and lactate), hypoglycemia, hypotonia, and convulsions.All 6 children died in early infancy.The corresponsive HSD17B10 variants were c. 740A>G/p.N247S, c.677G>A/p.R226Q, c.257A>G/p.D86G and c. 650G>A/p.R217Q, which did not indicate the hot spots of mutation. Conclusions:HSD10 deficiency in the neonatal period is relatively rare.The clinical diagnosis is difficult due to the serious condition and short course of the disease.Severe metabolic acidosis, hypotonia, and convulsions in neonatal patients are the main reasons for the poor prognosis, which can be attributed to the hemizygous variation and heterogeneity of the mutation site in male patients.c.650G>A may be closely associated with severe neonatal HSD10 deficiency, but the molecular biological mechanism needs to be further clarified.HSD10 deficiency has a poor prognosis and lacks effective treatment.

The effect of phenol concentration on the structure and function of microbial communities,which were cultured in different conditions using coking wastewater biofilm as seeding,was investigated by Biolog and denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis(DGGE)methods.The less number of bands of cultivated sam-ples on the denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis fingerprint of 16S rRNA gene indicated reduction of di-versity after enrichment and cultivation.Some bands on the DGGE gel were significantly influenced by the phenol concentration in medium.The results of Biolog showed that the original biofilm sample had the highest substrate utility capacity as measured by average well color development(AWCD).But low concen-tration of phenol enriched sample S7 showed more diverse activity on the utility of Carboxylic acids.The principal component analysis(PCA)of Biolog data revealed that the metabolic patterns were similar when using the same phenol concentration,although the sample S7 much less similar to other cultivated samples.These results suggested that the enrichment and cultivation with phenol supplemented decreased the diver-sity and also changed the metabolic function of the microbial community.Lower phenol concentration in-creased the microbial community metabolic activity.The phenol degrading capacity of isolates from each samples indicated that the enrichment and cultivation condition had changed the type and property of cul-truable bacteria.Based on these results,we concluded that the different microorganisms will be isolated un-der different cultivation condition.

Objective To explore the most accurate T staging and optimal surgical method of lung adenocarcinoma of trans-lobe type, and to provide supportive diagnosis as well as therapeutic evidences for this disease. Methods A total of 192 postoperative patients, hospitalized in Tianjin Medical University General Hospital from January 2008 to June 2013, who were diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma were recruited. Patients were divided into three groups according to the 7th edition of TNM staging criteria issued by the IASLC in 2009. A total of 163 patients with T2 stage were selected as Group T2, and 12 patients with T3 stage were selected as Group T3, both of which were considered as control groups. Other 17 pa?tients who were diagnosed as trans-lobe type of lung adenocarcinoma, were Group trans-lobe. The clinical data and progno?sis were compared between three groups. The trans-lobe type of lung adenocarcinoma was diagnosed based on imaging and pathological examination. Subtypes of trans-lobe lung adenocarcinoma were identified by referring to 2011 international mul?tidisciplinary classification standard of lung adenocarcinoma. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the prognosis of dif?ferent subtypes and surgical modus in patients with lung adenocarcinoma of trans-lobe type. Results By comparison, the postoperative survival rate was significantly lower in patients diagnosed with trans-lobe type of lung adenocarcinoma than that of Group T2 (P<0.05), and no significant difference in survival rate compared with Group T3 (P>0.05). There were no significant differences in survival rates between different surgical modus (P<0.05). Seventeen patients with trans-lobe type of lung adenocarcinoma consisted of four subtypes, including 8 solid predominant, 5 acinar predominant, 3 papillary predomi?nant and 1 invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma. There were no statistical significances in postoperative survival time and sur?vival rates between four subtypes. Conclusion The clinical stage of trans-lobe type of lung adenocarcinoma should be clas?sified as stage T3. Both pulmonary bilobectomy and lobectomy combined with resection of proximal invaded lobe can be used as effective surgical therapies for trans-lobe type of lung adenocarcinoma.

Social governance is a novel form of public administration made based on the analysis and judgment for the power pattern in the course of social administration, a model advocated in the premise of a clearly positioned relationship among the government, marketplace, society and citizens.Social evaluation is an effective carrier and means leveraging the social governance theory, which has found extensive and outstanding use in such issues as expression of public interests and responsibilities,and in tackling sharp social problems. The authors called into play the scenario analysis based on public hospital management reforms with the social governance theory. In addition, they explored social governance at home and abroad as well as the theories, meaning and progress of social evaluation, and analyzed the pathways and probes in social evaluation and governance in the fields in question. On such basis, the paper proposed to explore and develop the social evaluation strategies and study framework for public hospitals in terms of healthcare management, aiming at building the social governance system and policies for public hospitals.

Objective:To design and construct the replication-deficient recombinant adenovirus Ad-siCTGF which can silence the expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) by RNA interference and verified its function. Methods:A specific sequence, which was verified to be able to silence CTGF gene with high efficiency, was cloned into pSES-HUS vector to produce the shuttle plasmid pSES-siCTGF. The plasmid after Pme Ⅰ linearization was cotransduced with pAdEasy into BJ5183 E.coli strains to construct recombinant vector Ad-siCTGF. After linearization treatment with Pac Ⅰ enzyme digestion Ad-siCTGF was transfected into HEK293 cells via liposome mediation. The recombinant adenovirus was packaged. The titer of the Ad-siCTGF was increased after three times of cross-infection. 4T1 cells were infected with the adenovirus. The silencing efficiency was tested by real-time fluorescence quantitative (RFQ)-PCR and Western blotting.Results:Pac Ⅰ enzyme digestion electrophoresis indentified that recombinant adenovirus was successfully constructed. The titer of the recombinant adenovirus Ad-siCTGF was 2.6×10~(10) pfu/mL after amplification and purification. The CTGF mRNA and protein expression in 4T1 cells were decreased by 36.27% and 31.56%, respectively, compared with the control groups.Conclusion:The recombinant adenovirus which can silence the expression of CTGF was successfully constructed. It laid a good foundation for further investigation of the action mechanism of CTGF in tumor cells.

Objective To explore the differences in the strength of the nodes in the brain white matter weighted networks between the male patients with paranoid schizophrenia and male healthy controls, and to analysis the integrity of the white matter fiber tracts that connected to the different brain regions and its relationship with the course of disease. Methods Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) data were obtained from 25 male patients with paranoid schizophrenia and 26 male healthy controls. The whole brain was parcellated into 90 regions by using the anatomical label map. Tractography was performed in the whole brain of each subject to reconstruct white matter tracts using the FACT algorithm. The brain white matter weighted networks were then constructed using the complex network theory. Results The strength of the nodes in the networks of schizophrenia significantly decreased in the right thalamus (P=0.03, corrected) and the right hes?chl gyrus (P=0.04, corrected). Negative correlation was found between the strength of the right thalamus and the course of disease (r=-0.45, P=0.03). Conclusion The integrity of the white matter fiber tracts connected to the thalamus and tem?poral lobes in the male paranoid schizophrenia is impaired. The lesion of fiber tracts connected to the thalamus is related with the course of disease.
