Objective To study the SRSF2 mutations in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients by using high-resolution melting analysis (HRMA). Methods PCR-HRMA analysis was performed to screen SRSF2 mutations in 140 cases with AML, and the direct DNA sequencing was used to confirm the HRMA results. Results Five percent (7/140) of AML patients were found with heterozygous SRSF2 mutations, including one case of P95R mutation, two case of P95L mutation, and four cases of P95H mutation, the above mutations were confirmed by direct DNA sequencing. The maximal sensitivity of HRMA in detecting SRSF2 mutation was close to 10%. There were no difference in gender, age and blood parameters among cases with or without SRSF2 mutations (P > 0.05). The overall survival (OS) of patients with SRSF2 mutations was inferior to those without SRSF2 mutations in AML patients (P=0.016). Conclusions HRMA analysis was a convenient, rapid, specific, high-throughput technique for scanning of SRSF2 gene mutations in AML patients. SRSF2 mutation may predict the adverse prognosis in AML patients.

Objective To study the role of recombinant human epidermal growth factor (rhEGF) in the prognosis of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) in mice. Methods One hundred and twenty clean male Kunming mice were randomly ( random number) divided into normal saline control group (n =15),MODS model control group (n =15) and MODS + rhEGF treatment group (n =90).The MODS models were made by using Caballero ME method with thioacetamide (TAA) 2000 mg/kg injected intraperitoneally to establish monophasic rapid onset pattern of MODS model in mice.MODS + rhEGF treatment group was further randomly divided into two subgroups,namely intraperitoneal injection group (n =45 ) and subcutaneous injection group (n =45 ).Each subgroup was divided again into three small subgroups (n =15) as per different doses of rhEGF used,namely 10 μg/kg,30 μg/kg and 50 μg/kg.Within 24 hours after modeling,the respiration,body weight,food eaten and general physical changes were observed.Mortality was calculated 24 hours after modeling.After the animals sacrificed,the tissues of viscus including liver,kidney,heart,brain,lung,spleen,pancreas,intestine and stomach were collected immediately.The histological changes of visceral tissues were studied by using hematoxylin -eosin staining under the light microscope.All the experimental data were presented in,and body weight changes were compared using t-test,and after different routes of administration with different doses of rhEGF used in MODS,the mice body weight changes were analysed by using the Dunnett method,and the mortalities of mice were compared by using Fisher exact test,and P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant difference. Results There was no significant difference in mortality betweeu mice in rhEGF subcutaneous administration group and MODS model control group (P > 0.05 ),but the total mortality of hrEGF MODS intraperitoneal administration group (6.7% in dose of 50 μg/kg and 20% in dose of 30 μg/kg) was significantly lower than that of MODS model control group (73.3%) ( P < 0.05 ) and the mortality of mice treated with intraperitoneal 50μg/kg rhEGF (6.7% ) was lower than that treated with 10μg/kg rhEGF (P=0.014).The mortality of mice in rhEGF MODS (50 μg/kg ) intraperitoneal administration group was significantly lower than that in subcutaneous administration group (40%) (P =0.031 ), The histopathological changes in rhEGF MODS treatment group were not as remarkable as seen in mice of control group.The histopathological changes were dose - dependent.The higher doses of rhEGF,the lesser hepatic congestion,liver cell apoptosis,hepatic cell cloudy swelling and cell vacuolization.Similarly,as RhEGF dosage increased,pulmonary interstitial congestion,inflammatory cells and apoptotic bodies reduced,and bronchial ciliated columnar epithelium less shed.Conclusions RhEGF plays a positive role in repairement of tissue damage in TAA - induced MODS murine model.The rhEGF given by intraperitoneal route of administration is more effective to reduce the 24 h mortality of MODS mice than that by subcutaneous route.

Objective To compare the clinical therapeutic effects of continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) and continuous veno-venous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) for treatment of patients with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS).Methods A prospective observation was conducted, seventy patients with MODS admitted to the Department of Critical Care Medicine of the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical College from September 2013 to December 2016 were enrolled, and they were divided into a CVVH group and a CVVHDF group according to different treatment, 35 cases in each group. In the CVVH group, the ultrafiltration fluid flow rate was set at 1800 mL/h, while in the CVVHDF group, the flow rate was set at 2000 mL/h for both substitution fluid and dialysate, and the blood flow of the two groups was 150-180 mL/min. The changes of creatinine (SCr), urea nitrogen (BUN), pH value, HCO3-, helper T cell (Th1, Th2) and Th1/Th2 ratio were compared between the two groups before and after treatment for 24, 48 and 72 hours.Results With the extension of time, SCr, BUN were reduced in both groups after treatment compared to those before treatment, 72 hoursafter treatment they reached the lowest value, and the degree of change in CVVHDF group was more significant than that in CVVH group [SCr (μmol/L): 150.62±32.09 vs. 180.41±30.52, BUN (mmol/L): 7.31±2.19 vs. 9.06±2.36. allP < 0.05], after treatment; the pH value, HCO3- level in the two groups had a tendency at first elevated and then lowered, 48 hours after treatment they reached the peak values, compared with those before treatment, the differences were statistically significant [CVVH group: the pH value 7.42±0.08 vs. 7.25±0.10, HCO3- (mmol/L) was 22.49±5.11 vs. 15.65±4.16; CVVHDF group: pH value 7.41±0.04 vs. 7.24±0.11, HCO3- (mmol/L) 23.24±4.78 vs. 15.65±4.16, allP < 0.05], 72 hours after treatment, they began reduced (CVVH group: pH value, HCO3- were 7.39±0.09, 22.35±4.91 respectively, CVVHDF group: pH value, HCO3- were 7.38±0.06, 23.13±4.61 respectively), but they were still significantly higher than those before treatment, and at each time point compared between the two groups, no statistical significant difference was seen (allP > 0.05). With the extension of therapeutic time, Th1, Th1/Th2 in two groups were gradually elevated after treatment, and 72 hours after treatment they reached the peak values; Th2 showed a trend of gradual decrease and after 72 hours of treatment it reached the lowest value, and the changes in CVVHDF group were more significant than those in CVVH group [Th1 (×10-2): 1.51±0.12 vs. 1.21±0.11, Th2 (×10-2): 1.64±0.65 vs. 1.70±0.18, Th1/Th2: 0.91±0.14 vs. 0.71±0.15, allP < 0.05].Conclusion Both CVVH and CVVHDF can effectively remove inflammatory mediators and metabolic products, adjust the balance of acid and base, regulate immune system in the body of patients with MODS, and the CVVHDF is more effective than CVVH.
