Objective:To observe the effect of chitosan on tumor. Methods: Experiments of antitumor in vitro and in vivo were adopted in tumor-bearing mice. Results: Experiment in vitro demonstrated that chitosan had some killing effects on S 180、EAC and H 22 tumor cells, but it did not have directly killing effect on human body liver cancer. Experiment demonstrated that rate of inhibitory tumor was 66.0% or so, and it markedly increased thymus and spleen weights of tumor-bearing mice (TBM), and markedly inhanced the transformation rate of lymphocytes, it had markedly protective effect on thymus and spleen weights and different antagonisfic effect on the decrease in WBC、 neutrophil cell and loss of body weight induced from 5-Fu. Conclusion: Chitosan had more intensive antitumous effect and immunologic function of tumor-bearing mice and antagonisfic effect on bone marrow and immunologic inhibition induced from 5-Fu.

AIM: To investigate the possible role of nuclear transcription factor kappa B (NF-?B), Bcl-2, Bax and caspase-3 in etodolac-induced apoptosis of liver tumor SMMC7721 cell line. METHODS: Cell apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry analysis with PI staining and DNA laddering. Expression of Bcl-2 and Bax protein was measured by Western blotting. Caspase-3 activity was evaluated by active caspase-3 apoptosis kit with flow cytometry. NF-?B activation was detected by ELISA-based TransAM~(TM) NF-?B p65/p50 kit. RESULTS: Etodolac, a selective COX-2 inhibitor, stimulated apoptosis in liver tumor SMMC7721 cell line significantly. Flow cytometry showed that the apoptotic rate was 16.3%?3.1%, 19.9%?3.6%, 22.9%?3.2%, 31.2%?3.3% with different concentrations of etodolac (0.25, 0.50, 1.0 or 2.0 mmol/L), while the apoptotic peak did not appear in the control group (0 mmol/L) (P

Objective To investigate the characteristics and significance of atypical flow cytometric immunophenotype in plasma cell myeloma.Methods Using case-control study , 48 cases with atypical immunophenotype of plasma cell myeloma and 42 cases as control group were studied by flow cytometry , the former cases were classified into three groups according to the expression of CD 38, CD138, CD19, CD56 :CD38 +/CD138 +/CD19 +/CD56 +, CD38 +/CD138 +/CD19 +/CD56 -, CD38 +/CD138 +/CD19 -/CD56 -.And compare the three groups with intracellular immunoglobulin light chain (cKappa, cLambda) , bone marrow morphology and immunofixation.The positive rate was compared with chi-square test.Results Bone marrow plasma cells showed expression of particular antigens in the following proportion of the 48 cases:CD45 29.17%, CD38 100%, CD138 100%, CD19 95.83%, CD56 43.75%, cKappa 43.75%and cLambda 56.25%.And in the three groups , the expression of monoclonal immunoglobulin were 43.75%, 52.08%and 4.17%, which bone marrow morphology and immunofixation were 57.14%,80%, 100%and 71.43%,88%,100%.The positive rate of flow cytometry , bone marrow morphology and serum immunofixation electrophoresis were 100%, 70.83% and 81.25%.While the expression of particular antigens in the control group were:CD45 47.62%, CD38 100%, CD138 100%, CD19 100%, CD56 0%, cKappa 100% and cLambda 100%.And no abnormalities were detected in bone marrow morphology and immunofixation.Conclusions Compared with the bone marrow morphology and immunofixation , multiparameter flow cytometry has more helpful to find out atypical immune phenotype of plasma cell myeloma, and differentiate malignant and benign plasma cell , contributes to the diagnosis of clinical plasma cell myeloma, prognosis and treatment monitoring.

The portable gastrointestinal wireless endoscope image receiver is developed and based on TMS320C6211 DSP. It can receive and demodulate the modulated signal which is transmitted from the camera-capsule, and then output the video signal. The synchronizing signals offered by SAA7114H are made best of and are used to design the time logic circuit. The fitful video signal can be collected under the control of the time logic circuit. The circuit can automatically get rid of useless blank data and only collect effective and good-quality video signals, and storage them in CF card. In addition, the image signal can be processed and compressed by DSP, and thus the data storage space and the data- analyzing time can be saved.

Objective To investigate the changes of esophageal intraluminal baseline impedance in patients with refluxesophagitis.Methods From December 2013 to August 2014,47 patients with reflux esophagitis and 17 healthy controls were enrolled.The patients with reflux esophagitis were graded according to Los Angeles classification (LA) grading standards.All subjects accepted 24 h multichannel intraluminal impedance (MII) pH examination,and the baseline value of impedance were measured.Independent sample t test was used to compare the difference in impedance between the two groups.Spearman rank correlation coefficient was performed to analyze the correlation between acid exposure time (AET) and the baseline impedance of patients with reflux esophagitis.Kruskal-Wallis test was used to compare the differences in baseline impedance of patients with different grades of reflux esophagitis.Results The impedance baseline value of reflux esophagitis group was (1 676.72±644.41) Ω,which was lower than that of healthy control group ((2 151.27± 322.05) Ω),and the difference was statistically significant (t =-3.883,P＜0.01).The AET of esophagus was negatively correlated with the baseline impedance of the patients with reflux esophagitis (r=-0.530,P＜0.01).The baseline impedance of patients with grade LA-A and grade LA-B reflux esophagitis were 1 823.62 Ω (1 515.38 52 Ω,2 208.38 Ω) and 1 771.81 Ω(1 304.75 52 Ω,2 080.50 Ω),respectively,and the difference was not statistically significant (Z=-0.630,P=0.529).The baseline impedance of patients with grade LA C/D reflux esophagitis was 300 Ω (300 Ω,500 Ω),which was obviously lower than those of patients with grade LA-A or grade LA-B (Z=-2.647 and-2.818,both P＜0.017).Conclusion The baseline impedance of patients with reflux esophagitis is low and correlated with AET.

ObjectiveTo establish the time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay (TRFIA) method for the detection of serum galectin-3 and investigate the clinical value of serum galectin-3 for the diagnosis of pancreas cancer.MethodsMonoclonal anti-human galectin - 3 antibody and biotinylated polyclonal antibody were used to establish the sandwich TRFIA for detection of serum galectin-3.The optimal experimental condition was studied.Serum levels of galectin-3,CEA and CA19-9 in the patients with pancreatic cancer,benign pancreatic mass,pancreatitis,and healthy controls were measured.The diagnostic value of serum galectin-3,CEA and CA19-9 for pancreas cancer was studied.ResultsThe linearity of the TRFIA for detection of serum galectin3 tanged between 0 to 100 μg/L.The within-run CV and between-run CV were ≤6.45％ and ≤8.68％,respectively,and the average recovery was 106.6％.The level of serum galectin-3 was 4.93 ( 0.85 ～ 23.80) μg/L in pancreatic cancer group,which were significantly higher than those in benign pancreatic mass [2.83 ( 2.17 ～ 4.06) μg/L ],pancreatitis [ 2.62 (0.55 ～ 9.76 ) μg/L ],and healthy controls group [ 1.88 ( 0.59 ～ 3.94) μg/L] (P ＜0.05).By using 3.77 μg/L as the cut-off point,the smsitivity,specificity for the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer was 75.5％ and 90.9％.The levels of Gal 3 and CEA,CA19-9 was not correlated ( r =0.1321,P =0.3761 ; r =0.0920,P =0.5384).Combined determination of galactin-3 and CEA,CA19-9 levels could increase the diagnostic sensitivity to 92％.ConclusionsTRFIA method for the detection of galactin-3 is sensitive and stable.Galectin-3 could be a potentially novel serum tumor marker of pancreatic cancer.
