Chinese Journal of General Surgery 1997;0(06):-
Objective To investigate the possibility and accuracy of idenfication of the sentinel lymph node(SLN) in breast cancer(BC) by using methylene blue intra operatively.Methods 4~6ml methylene blue dye was injected around the breast mass intra operatively. 5~10 minutes after injection,the operation for BC was performed. All blue stained lymph nodes found during operation were considered as SLN, and removed for pathological examination. All patients had axillary lymphadenectomy(ALDN),and the acquired nonsentinel lymph nodes(NSLN)from them were also examined. Results The SLN were identified in 45 of 50 patients(90.0%).There were all 117 SLNs in this series. Of 117 SLNs,111 were located in stage I lymph nodes in axilla(95.0%),and 6 SLNs in stage II(5.0%). Of the 5 cases of the unidentified SLN,the primary tumor was located in the inferior quadrant in 4 cases,and in the uper quadrant in 1 case (P0.05). Histologic status of the SLNs accurately predicted axillary nodes status with an accuracy rate of 91.0%. 4 cases or SLN examination were negative while their NSLN were positive with false negative rate 8.9%. Conclusions This technique can identify SLN accurately;the histology of SLN can predict axillary status correctly. Sentinel lymph node has correlation with the location of the primary tumor but has no correlation with the size of the tumor or breast operation before.

Objective:To prepare specific IgY production using Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans(A.a) immunizing hen, and then to investigate anti-Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans IgY inhibiting growth of A.a and Capnocytophaga gingivalis(C.g). Methods:Using immunization method, water-dilution method, two-step ammonium sulfate precipitation, inhibiting bacteria growth test in liquid anaerobic culture, and ELISA, IgY were induced, extracted, purified, and inhibiting growth of A.a and C.g by the IgY was roundly evaluated. Results:The IgY purity reached to 85.6%~90.3% through 550 g/L and 330 g/L ammonium sulfate precipitation, and efficacy value was 1∶32 000. The IgY efficacy value of anti- A.a was 1∶8 000 against C.g in cross-reactivity.When IgY concentrations of anti-A.a were in the 5.0,1.0,0.1 g/L and concentration of A.a was in the 5?108 CFU/L, the suppression rate of A.a growth were 31.60%(P=0.004),10.24%(P=0.024),-3.30% respectively during 24 h culture and were 64.20%(P=0.004),53.21%(P=0.002),11.20% respectively in 72 h culture. When the concentration of A.a was in the 1?108 CFU/L, the suppression rate of A.a growth were 35.71%(P=0.004),30.95% (P=0.012),11.11% respectively during 24 h culture, and were 65.11%(P=0.005),54.04%(P=0.002),16.17% respectively during 72 h culture. When 5.0 g/L IgY of anti-A.a was cultured with 1?108 CFU/L C.g for 24 h, the suppression rate of C.g growth was 41.61%(P=0.005), and for 72 h it was 86.99%(P=0.014). Conclusion:The hen is able to be induced to produce high efficacy value IgY of anti-A.a by A.a. The specific IgY of anti-A.a is capable of inhibiting A.a and C.g growth. There are common antigens and cross immunizing reactivity between A.a and C.g.

OBJECTIVE To investigate whether efflux mechanism is involved in fluoroquinolone-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strains isolated in China. METHODS We compared the ciprofloxacin accumulation in clinically isolated K. pneumoniae with or without CCCP by fluorospectrophotometry. Use reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) to measure the mRNA expression level of acrAB-tolC efflux gene. RESULTS The accumulation of ciprofloxacin in resistant strains was lower than that in susceptible ones, and it could increase to a high level nearly to the susceptible strains. The mRNA level of efflux gene acrA was higher in resistant strains than in susceptible ones. CONCLUSIONS Efflux mechanism is associated with the resistance to fluroquinolones in K. pneumoniae strains isolated in China and CCCP can inhibit its active efflux mechanism , which provides a sensitive method to detect the active efflux system of K. pneumoniae.

Objective To detect the expression of cyclooxygenase(COX) in human gastric cancer cell lines and its subcellular location of the isoforms. Methods Immunohistochemistry、RTPCR combined with laser scanning cofocal microscopy (LSCM) were used to investigate expression and distribution of COX. Results Positive staining of COX2 and COX1 protein was seen in human gastric cancer cell line MKN45、SGC7901 and AGS. However, the COX2 staining was absent and COX1 staining was weak in MGC803; though their mRNA in all the four cell lines. When compared to COX1,COX2 showed a stronger signal at both protein and mRNA levels of the gastric cancer cell lines, which was confirmed by double labeling and LSCM. The quantitative analysis of fluorescein intensity indicated the pixel intensity peak of COX2 reached 50~70, while COX1 only 10. LSCM also showed that COX2 was both cytoplasmic and nuclear envelope staining but COX1 only in cytoplasm. Conclusions In human gastric cancer, there is stronger expression of COX2 than COX1, and different distribution of the two isoforms implies their distinct roles in cell function.
