Objective To develop a new type of Raman-enhanced substrate for rapid detection of E.coli based on label-free surface-enhanced Raman scattering( SERS) technology.Methods Stober’ s improved method was used to prepare 360 nm silica ( SiO2 ) nanospheres.Prepared gold core-silver shell nanoparticles( Au@Ag) of different size were attached to 360 nm SiO2 to fabricate the nanocomposites ( SiO2-Au@Ag ) that were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and UV-visucl light adsorption spectra (UV-Vis).PATP was detected to select SiO2-Au@Ag with optimal SERS effect.This optimal SiO2-Au@Ag was used to obtain the sensitivity of PATP and E.coli detection after a simple mixed culti-vation.Results TEM images showed that Au@Ag aggregated with the size of Au@Ag attached to 360 nm SiO2 .UV-Vis spectra indicated that the maximum absorption of Au@Ag and SiO2-Au@Ag had a red shift with the invrease of Au@Ag size.The experiment results suggested that detection sensitivity of PATP by SiO2-100 nm Au@Ag 10 -10 mol/L, while the lowest detectable E.coli concentration was 105 CFU/ml.Conclusion The 360 nm SiO2 binding with 100nm Au@Ag exhibits great potential for SERS applications.

Objective To investigate the prognostic significance of follicular lymphoma international prognostic index (FLIPI) and FLIPI2 in Chinese FL patients for better prognostic model.Methods 63 newly diagnosed FL patients who received rituximab plus CHOP (cyclophosphamide,doxorubicin,vincristine and prednisone)-like chemotherapy from January 2003 to December 2010 were retrospectively analyzed according to FLIPI and FLIPI2 scoring system.Results According to FLIPI,31 patients (49.2 %) were stratified into the low risk group (0-1 point),24 (38.1%) into the intermediate risk group (2 points),and 8 (12.7 %) into the high risk group (3-5 points).As for FLIPI2 scoring,17 cases (27.0 %) were classified in low risk group (0 point),42 cases (68.3 %) in intermediate risk group (1-2 points),and 4 cases in high risk group (3-5 points).The overall response rates and 2-year progression free survival (PFS) rates of the three risk groups were 93.5 % (29/31),91.7 % (22/24),75.0 % (6/8) (P =0.27),and 85.7 %,75.2 %,58.8 % (Log-rank =1.063,P =0.59) respectively in FLIPI.In terms of FLIPI2,the overall response rates and 2-year PFS rates of the three groups were 100.0 % (17/17),90.7 % (39/42),50.0 % (2/4) (P =0.01) and 92.9 %,74.0 %,33.3 % (Log-rank =7.075,P =0.03).Conclusion FLIPI2 presents more robust prognostic significance than FLIPI in disease progression perspective for FL patients treated with R-CHOP like regimens in this study.

Objective To study the gene mutation of a Chinese family with Alport syndrome and to perform preimplantation genetic diagnosis before embryo implantation.Methods Next generation sequence analysis was done for checking COL4A3,COL4A4 and COL4A5 genes in the Alport syndrome family members.Array comparative genomic hybridization(CGH) was used to detect the embryos.Results A mutation c.2605G > A was found and identified in COL4A5 gene of all of the Alport syndrome patients in the family,but COL4A3 and COL4A3 genes were normal in all of the detected people.After searching for the mutation database,the mutation c.2605G > A of COL4A5 gene was related to the X-linked dominant Alport syndrome.Three embryos were detected by using the preimplantation genetic diagnosis.Among these embryos,there were two male and one female.One of the male embryos was chromosomal aneuploidy,which was 45,XY,-16 and the other was normal.This normal embryo was implanted,and after 20 weeks the prenatal amniocentesis diagnosis approved that the fetus was normal.Conclusions The mutation of COL4A5 gene (c.2605 G > A) is the cause of Alport syndrome in this family,which indicates that next generation sequence analysis proves to be an accurate and rapid method to detect Alport syndrome disease.Meanwhile array CGH can be used to reduce birth rates as a useful preimplantation genetic diagnosis method.

Objective To evaluate the expression of alpha-methylacyl-coenzyme-A racemase (AMACR,P504s) with immunohistochemical staining in diagnosis of prostate carcinoma. Methods A total of 133 specimens were taken from the patients (mean age,71 years),including 46 cases of prostate carcinoma (PCa) (1 case of stage A,19 cases of stage B,14 cases of stage C,12 cases of stage D;4 cases of gradeⅠ,14 cases of gradeⅡ,28 cases of grade Ⅲ),53 cases of benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH),13 cases of prostate intraepithelial tumor (PIN),9 cases of normal prostate,6 cases of prostatitis,3 cases of metastatic prostate cancer.Two sections of each specimen were made,with 1 stained by hematoxylin and eosin,and the other stained immunohistochemically by a rabbit monoclonal antibody to AMACR (P504s).AMACR staining expression was characterized as negative (score,1), weak (positive) (2), moderate (3) or strong (4). Results In 46 cases of PCa,AMACR staining expression was negative in 2 cases,weak in 1,moderate in 25 and strong in 18,with a mean staining intensity of 3.28 [95% confidence interval (CI), 3.07-3.50]. In 53 cases of BPH, the staining expression was negative in 47 cases, weak in 6, with a mean intensity of 1.11 (95% CI, 1.02-1.20).In 13 cases of PIN, the staining expression was negative in 12, weak in 1, with a mean intensity of 1.08 (95% CI, 0.91-1.24).The score of PCa group was significantly different from those of the latter 2 groups (P
9.Expression of macrophage migration inhibitory factor in renal carcinoma and its effect on invasion ability of renal carcinoma cell
Chongqing Medicine 2017;46(35):4897-4900
Objective To explore the expression of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) in renal carcinoma tissue and its effect on invasion of renal carcinoma cell.Methods Forty-eight cases of patients definitely diagnosed with renal cancer in the Department of Pathology,the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region People's Hospital and Baotou Municipal Tumor Hospital from March 2013 to March 2015 served as the research subjects.The expressions of MIF protein and mRNA in renal carcinoma tissues and adjacent normal tissues,renal carcinoma cell lines and normal renal tubular epithelial cells HK-2 were detected by adopting the Western blot and RT-PCR.siRNA MIF and siRNA NC were transfected into renal carcinoma cells by liposome.The transfection effect was detected by Western blot and RT-PCR.The cell viability and invasion ability were measured by MTT and Transwell method respectively.The expression of hypoxia inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF-1α) and matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) was measured by Western blot.Results The expression levels of MIF protein and mRNA in renal carcinoma tissues were significantly higher than those in adjacent normal tissues (0.89±0.09 vs.0.18±0.02,1.19±0.04 vs.0.19±0.01,P<0.05).The expression levels of MIF protein and mRNA in renal cancer cell line ACHN,769-p,786-O,Caki-1 cells were higher than those in renal tubular epithelial HK-2 cells (P<0.05).Compared with the siRNA NC group,the expression levels of MIF protein and mRNA in siRNA MIF group were significantly down-regulated (P<0.05),the cell viability and invasion ability were reduced (P<0.05),and the expressions of HIF-1α and MMP9 were down regulated (P<0.05).Conclusion MIF is highly expressed in renal carcinoma,downregulating MIF expression can significantly inhibit the renal cancer cell invasion,which might be related with inhibiting HIF-1α/MMP9 signaling pathway.

ObjectiveTo systematically review the clinical effect of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization with drug-eluting beads (DEB-TACE) versus conventional transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (cTACE) in the treatment of unresectable liver cancer. MethodsPubMed, Embase, Cochrane, and CNKI were searched for articles on clinical control trials of DEB-TACE versus cTACE in the treatment of unresectable liver cancer. The articles were screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, and after valid data were extracted, Revman 5.3 software was used for meta-analysis. The two groups were compared in terms of the number of patients with complete remission (CR), partial remission (PR), or stable disease (SD) and 6- and 12-month survival rates. ResultsA total of 12 articles were included, with 1177 patients in total, among whom 519 patients underwent DEB-TACE and 658 underwent cTACE. Compared with the cTACE group, the DEB-TACE group had a significantly higher number of patients with CR (risk ratio [RR]=1.42, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.18-1.72, P=0.0002), and had a significantly higher 12-month survival rate (RR=1.09, 95% CI: 1.01-1.17, P=0.03). There were no significant differences between the two groups in the number of patients with PR (RR=1.13, 95% CI: 0.97-130, P=0.12), the number of patients with SD (RR=0.82, 95% CI: 0.64-1.05, P=0.12), 6-month survival rate (RR=1.05, 95% CI: 1.00-1.10, P=0.07). ConclusionDEB-TACE has a better therapeutic effect than cTACE with iodinated oil.
