Objective To investigate the correlation of killer immunoglobulin-like receptors(KIR)gene polymorphism with bone marrow failure syndromes(BMFS). Methods SSP-PCR was used to examine the genotypic makeup of KIR in patients with aplastic anemia( AA), myelodysplatic syndrome (MDS) and healthy controls in our department. Results All the 16 KIR genes which had been prescribed were identified. The frequencies of KIR-2DS1, 2DS2, 2DS3, 2DS5 and 3DS1 genes were showed increased in patients with AA, MDS than in healthy controls. The patients with AA had lower frequency of KIR-2DS5 than the patients with MDS. Conclusion The increased frequencies of these activated KiRs in patients with MDS and AA suggest that the abnormal immunogenetic might be related to the pathogenesis of BMFS.

Objective To explore the inhibition effects and mechanics of nano-magnetoliposomes containing As_2O_3 (NMLA) combined with magnetic fluid hyperthermia on xenograft cervical carcinoma in nude mice. Methods After establishment of xenograft cervical carcinoma models in nude mice, nano-liposomes containing As_2O (NLA group), nano-magnetoliposomes (NML group) and NMLA (NMLA group) were injected into the xnograft cervical carcinoma, respectively, and all nude mice were exposed to AMF for three times. The inhibitive ratios (IR) of the tumors, apoptosis index (AI), proliferation index (PI) and the expression of Bcl-2 and Bax proteins were measured, as well as the function of liver and kidney. Results IRs in NLA, NML and NMLA groups were 57.06% (P0.05). The obvious necrosis was observed in the tumor tissues in NLA, NML and NMLA groups, but not in the peripheral tissues of the tumors and the visceras. Conclusion NMLA, without toxicity of liver and kidney, might be a desirable composite carrier of targeted treatment with chemotherapy and thermotherapy simultaneously.

Objective To investigate molecular cytogenetic abnormalities in chronic lymphocytic leukemia and clinic prognostic significance. Methods Conventional cytogenetics (CC) examination was performed in 17 cases with CLL by I-FISH with five probes [DI3S25(13q14.3), ATM(11q22.3), RB1(13q14), p53(17p13.1) and CSP12(12p11.1-12q11.1)]to detect molecular cytogenetic abnormalities in CLL. Results Among 17 cases of CLL, by CC examination, only 18.75 % patient were found to have chromosomal abnormalities;whereas on I-FISH, 70.6 % patient were found to have molecular cytogenetic abnormalities including 13q-(47.1%) del(RB1) (23.5 %), del(13q13.4)(29.4 %), trisomy 12 (29.4%), del(17p13.1)(11.8 %), del (ATM)(5.6 %), the frequency of complex abnormalities were 11.8 %. No correlation of molecular cytogenetic abnormalities with sex, age, Binet stage, LDH and β_2-MG were found. Conclusion I-FISH is a more rapid, accurate and sensitive technique for detection of molecular cytogenetic abnormalities in CLL than CC, There was no statistically significant difference between molecular cytogenetic abnormalities and clinic characteristics, but its prognostic significance in CLL needs to be further investigated.

International Eye Science 2017;17(3):519-521
AIM:To investigate the effect and local influence of atropine and anisodamine eye drops on adolescent pseudomyopia.
METHODS:Totally 110 cases of juvenile pseudomyopia were randomly divided into two groups, the control group was given 10g/L atropine sulfate eye gel, and the observation group was treated with 5g/L raceanisodamine eye drops. The efficacy of two methods, the changes of axial length and intraocular pressure before and after treatment, and the incidence of adverse reactions were compared.
RESULTS: There was no significant difference in cure rate between the two groups(χ2=0.533, P=0.465), but the effective rate of observation group was significantly better than the control group(χ2=3.907, P=0.048). Compared with the same group before treatment, the length of the axial length of the two groups increased in different degrees,and the increase value of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group, the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05), however, there was no significant difference between the two groups after treatment(P>0.05). The intraocular pressure of the two groups was significantly lower than that of the same group before treatment, and the difference between the two groups after treatments was not statistically significant(P >0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group(χ2=18.939, P<0.05).
CONCLUSION: Anisodamine eye drops in the treatment of juvenile pseudomyopia has obvious curative effect, its efficacy and safety are better than atropine eye gel.

Objective To investigate the common chromosome abnormalities in the patients with multiple myeloma and the relationships of cytogenetic abnormalities and clinical features. Methods The interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (I-FISH) analysis method was designed to detect RB1-/13q14-and 14q32 rearrangements in 49 MM patients. The statistic value of its effect on clinical features were determined. Results FISH disclosed 14q32 translocations in 26 of the 40 (53.1%) patients. 25 out of the 49 (51.02 %) cases were found with deletion of chromosome 13q14 included del(RB1) in 9 (18.4 %) and del(13q14.3) in 18 (36.7 %). 13q14 deletion and 14q32 translocation were simultaneously observed in 18 (36.7 %) cases. Spearman correlation analysis were found associated of 14q32 rearrangement with the percentage of plasma cells in bone marrow (r=0.316, P=0.27). Conclusion The frequency of 13q14 deletion and 14q32 gene translocation in multiple myeloma are high. There is a significant correlation between the presence of 14q32 translocations and chromosome 13 abnormalities in MM patients. The percentage of 14q32 translocation in plasma cells was increased significantly. The 14q32 translocation is an independent prognostic factor.
