Objective To identify the effect of arsenic trioxide (As2O3) on the differentiation and apoptosis of different types of neuroblastoma(NB) cell lines.Methods The cell lines [SK-N-SH,SK-N-BE2,SH-SY5 Y] were induced with different concentrations (0 μmol/L,1 μmol/L,3 μmol/L,5 μ mol/L and 7 μ mol/L) of arsenic trioxide for 24 h,48 h,72 h under the same conditions.The expression of MYCN gene was examined by fluorescence in situ hybridization assay in SK-N-BE2,cell proliferation,cell cycle and cell apoptosis were detected with cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and flow cytometry.Results 5 μmol/L of As2O3 inhibited the expression of MYCN gene in SK-N-BE2;CCK-8 assay indicated that As2O3 inhibited the proliferation of NB cell in a dose-and time-dependent manner,the cell proliferation was significantly suppressed compared with the low concentration (1 μ mol/L) after treated with As2O3 by 1 μmol/L,3 μmol/L,5 μmol/L and 7 μmol/L in 24 h,48 h and 72 h,SH-SY5Y:24 h(chisq =9.666 7,P ＜ 0.05),48 h (chisq =9.666 7,P ＜ O.05),72 h (chisq =9.512 8,P ＜ 0.05);SK-N-SH,24 h (chisq =10.38,P＜0.054 6),48 h(chisq=8.641 0,P＜0.05),72 h(chisq=9.461 5,P＜0.05);SK-N-BE2:24 h (chisq =8.435 9,P ＜0.05),48 h(chisq =8.641 O,P ＜0.05),72 h(chisq =9.545 5,P ＜0.05);compared with the control group,the As2O3-treated cells showed increased apoptosis percentage,with the percentage of 1.6％ (0 μmol/L),3.8％ (1 μmol/L),6.1％ (3 μmol/L),10.4％ (5 μmol/L),40.2％ (7 μ mol/L);the cell cycle was arrested at G2/M phase,which prevented cell division.Conclusions (1) As2O3 play an important role on the NB cells proliferation,apoptosis which were dose-and time-dependent manner.(2)As2O3 can inhibit the expression of MYCN gene.(3)As2O3 also could block NB cell cycle at S and G2/M,and inhibit the cell nucleus replication and the As2O3 had different induced effect between different types of NB cell.

Objective To investigate the resistant mechanism of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli and its relationship with endogenous infection. Methods Two carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli strains were isolated from blood and stool of a same patient, respectively. The minimal inhibition concentrations (MIC) of the two isolates against imipenem and meropenem were determined by E-test. The susceptibility against other antimicrobial agents were done by disc diffusion method. Isoelectric focusing electrophoresis (IEF), polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification,cloning and sequencing, conjugation, Southern blotting were carried out to analyze the encoding gene of β-lactamases. Homology analysis of the two strains was done by pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). Results MIC against imipenem and meropenem of the two strains were both≥32 mg/L.Both strains produced KPC-2 (pI 6.7) and SHV-12 (pI 8.2) β-lactamases. blaKPC2gene was located on a 54 kb transferable plasmid. PFGE showed that the two Escherichia coli strains were derived from the same clone. Conclusions The resistance and enzyme digestion map of chromosome DNA of the two Escherichia coli strains are coincident. The Escherichia coli septicemia of this patient is probably an endogenous infection caused by the immigration of Escherichia coli from the gut.

Objective To investigate surgical technique and clinical efficacy of Sky bone ex- pander kyphoplasty in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral body compression fractures.Methods Eighteen cases with osteoporotic vertebral body compression fractures were treated with Sky bone expander kyphoplasty from August 2004 to November 2005.Under the local anesthesia,3.5-5ml of bone cements were injected into each pathologic vertebral body through unipedicle approach after reduction procedure was done with Sky bone expander.Results The postoperative follow-up ranged from 3 to 11 months, with an average of 4.5 months.Back pain was effectively relieved after the operation in all cases.No complications occurred.Conclusion The Sky bone expander kyphoplasty has the advantages of safe- ty,easy operation,minimal invasion,effective restoration of the vertebral body height and fast relief of pain.

Background Efficient and lowcost way to isolate keratocytes is helpful for research on cornea.Either relatively expensive or inefficient is the shortage of those means now applied,while raising the keratocytes through passage will change the phenotype of them quickly.Our aim is to approach the way getting keratocytes effectively utilizing modified two step enzymatic digestion by type I collagenase. Objective To evaluate the effect of isolating the bovine keratocytes utilizing two step enzymatic digestion and observe the morphological changes of the keratocytes during cultivation in vitro. Methods Keratocytes were isolated from bovine corneas using 0.5 mg/mL and 1 mg/mL type I collagenase digestion.The harvesting rate and viability rate of the primary keratocytes were evaluated.During the primary cultivation in vitro,the morphological changes of the keratocytes and their F-action distribution were observed.Results(1)The extracellular matrix of the bovine corneas were almost dissolved by the two step enzymatic digestion,followed the keratocytes completely isolated from the solid matrix.The amount of the harvested keratocytes from each cornea was(2.11±0.15)X106 on average while the viability rate was(91.69±3.73)% and the inoculation rate Was(81.20±1.25)%.(2)The primary keratocytes attached and spreaded out with dendritic and stellate morphology.After 3 days cultured,the branches of the keratocytes were contacting and formed networks.The F-actin detected by phalloidin binding showed a limited cortical localization. Conclusion (1)The method of two step enzymatic digestion can make the extracellular matrix of bovine cornea stroma completely degraded with the advantages in high efficiency of harvesting keratocytes and high cell viability and relatively simple manipulation. (2) The primary bovine keratocytes have dendritic morphology and with limited F-action distribute in cellular cortex.
