Objective To investigate 13 high-risk types of HPV (HR HPV) infection rates in women with different grades of cervical lesions.Methods A total of 350 women, who were hospitalized in the department of gynecology in Bao′an Maternity & Child health hospital, were enrolled for the study.TCT technology was used to evaluate the cervical epithelium.The group were divided according to the cytology results.Multiplex real time PCR (mRT PCR) was used to detect the viral loads.HR HPV infection rate of different groups were analyzed using χ2 test or Fisher exact test.HR HPV viral loads of patients in different grades of cervical lesion groups were compared using Kruskal-Wallis or Wilcoxon test, and the age distribution of HR HPV positive group and negative group was analyzed by using Wilcoxon test.Results The HR HPV infection rates of NILM, ASCUS, LSIL, HSIL were 3.4% (10/295), 20.0% (7/35), 78.6% (11/14) and 100.0% (6/6), respectively.HR HPV positivity in NILM was lower than ASCUS (χ2=14.43,P<0.01) and LSIL (χ2=107.69,P<0.01), HR HPV positivity in ASCUS was lower than LSIL (χ2=14.76,P<0.01). The median of HR HPV viral loads in NILM, ASCUS, LSIL and HSIL were 4.10 (3.38-6.27), 5.33 (3.63-6.66), 5.77 (4.01-7.01) and 5.58 (4.19-5.85) respectively (copies/ml,lg).Combined ASCUS, LSIL and HSIL groups into cervical lesion group, HR HPV viral load of which was higher than that of NILM (U=43.0, P<0.05).The median Ages of HR HPV positive group and negative group were 36 and 33, respectively.No statistical significance was found between them (U=4 544, P>0.05).Conclusions The present study revealed that HR HPV infection was related to cervical lesion, but there was no correlation between viral load and cervical lesion grade. In additional, no difference in age distribution was found between HR HPV positive group and negative group.

Mutation (substitution, deletion, insertion, etc.) in nucleotide acid causes the maximal sequence lengths of exact match (MALE) between paralogous members from a duplicate event to become shorter during evolution. In this work, MALE changes between members of 26 gene families from four representative species (Arabidopsis thaliana, Oryza sativa, Mus musculus and Homo sapiens) were investigated. Comparative study of paralogous' MALE and amino acid substitution rate (d(A)<0.5) indicated that a close relationship existed between them. The results suggested that MALE could be a sound evolutionary scale for the divergent time for paralogous genes during their early evolution. A reference table between MALE and divergent time for the four species was set up, which would be useful widely, for large-scale genome alignment and comparison. As an example, detection of large-scale duplication events of rice genome based on the table was illustrated.

ObjectiveTo evaluate thd cell biologic changes in thd non-small-cell lung cancer(NSCLC) which PTEN gene were activated by double-stranded RNA(dsRNA).MethodsSpecific dsRNA was designed.First,the promoter region of PTEN gene was determined by Promoter 2.0 program,then the CpG island in the promoter was found by CpGisland searcher software and the possible target non-CpG sequence that dsRNA might activate were defined by SiRNA Target Finder software.dsRNA were synthesized at Genechem Company( Shanghai,China).Then the specific dsRNA was transfected into A549 and H292 cells which were stored in our laboratory using Lipofectamine 2000 ( Invitrogen,USA) according to manufacture's instruction.Total celluar RNA was isolated.The expression of PTEN mRNA in transfected,control and mock group were determined by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction.Cell profiferation was investigated on days 1 to 5 by using Cell Counting Kit-8 according to the manufature's technical manual.Cell invasion ability was assessed by Transwell method that transmembrane cells were counted,and cell bycle distribution were studied by flow cytometer(FCM) using CycleTESTTM PLUS DNA Reagent Kit.ResultsAfter the introduction of dsRNA into the A549 cells,the PTEN mRNA expressin was upregulated to (4.35 ±0.42) folds compared with the mock and control cells.And in H292 cells,the mRNA expression of PTEN was upregulated to (3.92 ± 0.20) folds.It confirmed the RNA activation phenomenon in the PTEN gene in NSCLC cells.Compared with the control group,the number of alive transfected cells did not decreased in the cell proliferation assay.In the cell invasion test we found that the transmembrane A549 cells were 122.4 ±11.2 vs.150.7 ±13.1 in transfected group and control group respectively.In the cell cycle distribution we found dsRNA in duced part ofthe transfected cells arrested in G1 phase and a corresponding decrease in S-phase population was observed,though this change was not statistically significant.Conclusion The expression of PTEN mRNA could by enhanced by inducing the specific dsRNA into the A549 and H292 cells,though no evidence was found that after the activation of silenced PTEN,the cell proliferation and invasion ability were significantly changed.

A chiral LC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous analysis of desvenlafaxine (DVS) enantiomers in human plasma was developed and applied to a pharmacokinetic study on 12 Chinese healthy volunteers. d6-Desvenlafaxine was used as internal standard (IS). Chromatographic separation was performed on the Astec Chirobiotic V chiral column (150 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 μm). The assay was linear over the concentration range of 0.500-150 ng x mL(-1) for both enantiomers (r2 > 0.99). The method was successfully applied to a stereoselective pharmacokinetic study of 100 mg desvenlafaxine sustained release tablets on 12 Chinese healthy volunteers under fasting conditions. The results showed that the pharmacokinetic parameters were similar to both enantiomers in Chinese healthy volunteers. The AUC(0-t), and C(max) of the two enantiomers were about 1.5 times higher than those of blacks and whites reported in the literature.
