Background:Colorectal cancer is one of the commonly seen malignant tumors in digestive system. Most patients with colorectal cancer were diagnosed in advanced stage and the prognosis is poor. Early diagnosis is crucial to improve the overall survival of patient. Currently,molecular markers for diagnosis of colorectal cancer has attracted more and more attention of the investigators. Aims:To investigate the expression and significance of Rab5A in colorectal cancer. Methods:Colorectal cancerous tissue and the paired para-cancer noncancerous tissue of 135 patients who underwent resection for colorectal cancer were collected. Expression of Rab5A mRNA in cancerous tissue,para-cancer noncancerous tissue,colon cancer cell lines HCT116,HT-29,LoVo and SW480 and normal colonic epithelial cell line NCM460 was determined by real-time PCR. Protein expression of Rab5A in cancerous tissue and para-cancer noncancerous tissue of 4 patients was detected by Western blotting. Protein expression of Rab5A in cancerous tissue of 110 patients was detected by immunohistochemistry. Correlations between expression of Rab5A and clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of colorectal cancer were analyzed. Results:Expression of Rab5A mRNA in cancerous tissue was significantly higher than that in para-cancer noncancerous tissue(P=0. 003). Expression of Rab5A mRNA in colon cancer cell lines HCT116, HT-29,LoVo and SW480 was significantly higher than that in normal colonic epithelial cell line NCM460(P﹤0. 05). Protein expression of Rab5A in cancerous tissue was significantly higher than that in para-cancer noncancerous tissue. In 110 cancerous tissues,51(46. 4%)had low expression of Rab5A and 59(53. 6%)had high expression of Rab5A. Protein expression of Rab5A was significantly correlated with tumor size,serum carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA)level and TNM stage(P =0. 008;P =0. 002;P =0. 010). 3-year survival rate of patients with high Rab5A expression was significantly lower than that of patients with low Rab5A expression(52. 1% vs. 77. 5%,P ﹤0. 05). Rab5A protein expression,serum CEA level and TNM stage were correlated with the prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer( P =0.009;P =0. 006;P =0. 017)and were independent factors for prognosis(P =0. 026;P =0. 032;P=0. 014). Conclusions:Expression of Rab5A correlates with the malignant behavior of colorectal cancer and its high expression indicates a poor prognosis. Rab5A might be used as a predictor for prognosis of colorectal cancer.

OBJECTIVE:
To suppress NgR gene expression in neural stem cells and observe differentiation of neural stem cells in vitro after interfered which provide nutritional support for the facial nerve repair in vivo.
METHOD:
PCR amplification, restriction endonuclease digestion, T4DNA ligase connections were used to connected NgR with rector pGCsi, and constructed recombinant vector (NgR shRNA). Lipofectamine 2000 were used to transfect the NSC. The expression of NgR was examined by Western Blot. The proportion of neural stem cells transformed into neurons after transfection was tested by Immunocytochemistry. Neural stem cells were planted in PLGA tubes after transfected, and were scanned by electron microscopy.
RESULT:
NgR shRNA plasmid was constructed and infected neural stem cells successfully. Western Blot showed that the expression of NgR decreased in neural stem cells after interference. Immunocytochemistry showed that the rate of the neural stem cells transformed into neurons after interfered was significantly higher (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSION
Neural stem cells were transformed into neurons after NgR shRNA plasmid infected neural stem cells, which promoted axonal regeneration more effectively and provided a efficient and stable gene platform for facial nerve repair.

Objective To measure the cytokines levels in peripheral blood from kidney transplantation recipients by using cytometric bead array and to analyze their change and the clinical significance in pre- and post- kidney transplantation, inducting with basiliximab and graft rejection. Methods A total of 72 renal transplantation recipients were divided into two groups, kidney function stable group(n =53) and acute rejection group (n = 19). And they were also grouped by induction with basiliximab or not,32 in basiliximab group and 40 in without basilixmab group. The levels of IFN-γ, TNF-α, IL-10, IL-5,IL-4, IL-2 were measured by cytometric bead array in peripheral blood of 72 kidney transplantation recipients and 30 healthy donors at differential time. The data was analyzed according to the following grouping:donors and recipients, kidney function stable group and acute rejection group post transplantation and with or without basiliximab group. Results The levels of TNF-α, IL-10, IL-5, IL-4, IL-2 in recipients before transplantation were ( 1.65 ±0. 10) ,(2. 55 ±0. 19) ,( 1.88 ±0. 14) ,(1.85 ±0. 12) ,(2. 12 ±0. 09) ng/L,respectively. While they were (3.04 ±0. 17), (3.33 ±0. 26), (4.03 ±0.25), (2.73 ±0. 16), (4.03 ±0. 26) ng/L respectively in healthy donors. There was statistical significance between the two groups ( t =6. 890, 2. 375, 7. 851,3.955,7.153, P<0. 01, <0. 05, <0.01, <0.01, <0.01). While the level of IFN-γ in recipients before transplantation was (2. 50 ±0. 18) ng/L,compared with (3. 00 ±0. 24) ng/L in healthy donors. There was no statistical significance between the two groups( t = 1. 625, P > 0. 05 ). The levels of IFN-γ and IL-10 in kidney function stable group were (2. 71 ± 0. 11 ) ng/L and (3.91 ± 0. 52) ng/L,while they were ( 3.30 ± 0. 36 ) ng/L and ( 12. 01 ± 5.35 ) ng/L in acute rejection group. There were statistical dirrerences between the two groups ( t = 5. 061, 11. 465, P < 0. 01, < 0. 05 ). Before induction with basiliximab, the levels of IFN-γ, TNF-α, IL-10 in recipients were (2.90 ±0. 21 ), ( 1.67 ±0. 12),(2. 45 ± 0. 16) ng/L respectively. But they were ( 2. 78 ± 0. 17 ), ( 1.58 ± 0. 07 ), ( 2. 77 ± 0. 24 ) ng/L respectively after induction with basiliximab, which showed significantly different ( t = 5. 605, 6.011,4. 126, P <0. 01, <0. 01, <0. 05). Four weeks after kidney transplantation in recipients with basiliximab,the levels of IFN-γ, IL-10, IL-4 were (2. 90 ± 0. 31 ), (9. 08 ± 0. 16), (2. 73 ± 0. 11 ) ng/L. While they were (3.28 ±0. 11 ), (4. 17 ±0. 21 ), (2. 11 ±0. 20) ng/L respectively in recipients without basiliximab induction, which were significantly different from those with basiliximab induction (t = 4. 268,4. 263,3.762, P <0. 01, <0. 01, < 0. 05 ). Conclusions Six kinds of cytokines can be measured by cytometric bead array simultaneously and accurately. The data suggests that the detection of multiple cytokines in kidney transplantation recipients by cytometric bead array can provide more guidance for clinical diagnosis and therapy.
