Journal of Modern Laboratory Medicine 2014;(5):143-146
Objective To investigate the distribution and the infection status of human papillomavirus (HPV)genotype in male outpatients with sexually transmitted diseases (STD)in Northeast of Sichuan.Methods Totally 259 male outpatients with STD were performed to examine for HPV-DNA genotype by using Polymerase chain reaction and gene chip technolo-gy.Results 202 samples had positive HPV among 259 samples,the positive rate was 77.99%.Among 202 samples of HPV infection,60.89% were infected by single HPV genetype,26.24% were infected by two HPV genetypes,12.87% were in-fected by multiple HPV genetypes;27.41% were infected by high risk HPV genotypes,74.13% were infected by low risk HPV genotypes.In the rate of HPV genetype infection,the percentages of HPV6,HPV11,HPV16,HPV43,HPV33 and HPV58 were 52.97%,48.51%,16.34%,6.93%,5.45% and 5.45% respectively,and the rates of other HPV genetype in-fection were less than 5.00%.Among different age groups of men,there were insignificant differences in the infection rates of HPV (χ2=2.31,P>0.05),but there were statistical significance in the infection rates of high risk HPV subtypes (χ2=9.79,P<0.05).Conclusion The situation of HPV infection was comparatively severe and the mainly HPV infection types were low risk HPV genotypes infection or single HPV genetype infection in Northeast of Sichuan male outpatients with STD.The most frequent infection of high risk HPV subtypes was HPV16,and the nexts were HPV33 and HPV58;HPV6 and 1 1 subtypes were the most HPV subtypes among the low risk HPV infections.

Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2013;(11):1155-1157,1158
Clinical interns in the clinical microbiology laboratory not only need to accomplish the practice required in the syllabus but also need to be trained in the following aspects: laboratory biosafety, basic and important technical skills, potential guiding function of the original specimen smear, overall quality management, quick provide of microbiological sample information, communi-cation between microbiological laboratory and clinical departments, detection and significance of com-mon drug-resistant bacteria, etc. Based on these training, they might have a comprehensive and sys-tematic understanding of clinical microbiological testing and get improved in their professional quality and employment competitiveness thus to build a solid foundation for clinical work in the future.

Objective To investigate the expression of microRNA-134 ( miR-134 ) , CREB and pCREB in the temporal lobe tissue of patients and epileptic rats and to explore their roles in pathogenesis of epilepsy.Methods Tempo-ral lobe tissue samples of 14 patients with refractory epilepsy and 10 non-epileptic patients, and hippocampus and brain tis-sue samples of 42 rats were used in this study.Forty-two healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided in-to 6 epilepsy groups (24 h, 72 h, 7 d, 14 d, 30 d, and 60 d after kindling epilepsy) and a normal control group (n=6 for all groups) .The rat model of epilepsy was generated by intraperitoneal injection of 127 mg/kg lithium chloride and 16-20 h later, 35 mg/kg pilocarpine.In the temporal lobe tissue of patients and hippocampal tissue of rats, the expression level of miR-134 was detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction.The expression levels of CREB and pCREB were de-termined by Western blot, and CREB and pCREB localization was assessed by immunohistochemistry.Results Compared with the control rats, the expression of miR-134 was significantly decreased in the temporal lobe tissue of experimental rats at 72 h,7 d,14 d, 60 d after kindling (P<0.05),and no significant change at 24 h and 30 d after kindling (P>0.05). Expression of miR-134 in patients with refractory epilepsy was significantly lower than that of the controls ( P<0.05 ) , while up-regulation of CREB expression was at the same time points (P<0.05).Up-regulation of pCREB expression was at all the time points after kindling (P<0.05).CREB and p-CREB expressions were seen in the nuclei of neurons, and significantly higher in patients with refractory epilepsy and epileptic rats.Conclusions The expression of miR-134 is sig-nificantly decreased and that of CREB and pCREB was significantly increased in the temporal lobe tissue of patients with re-fractory epilepsy and the hippocampal tissue of epileptic rats.These findings indicate that the signaling pathway of miR-134/CREB/pCREB may play an important role in the pathogenesis of epilepsy.

BACKGROUND: Abnormal hematopoietic microenvironment is an important factor causing dyshematopoiesis. However, no consensus has been reached on the sensitivity of hematopoietic stromal cells to irradiation.OBJECTIVE: To observe the changes of marrow stromal cells (MSCs) cycle and DNA content during the early stage of irradiation damage in mice, so as to further understand dyshematopoiesis due to radiation and provide scientific basis to avoid deleterious factors in hematopoietic environment.DESIGN: Completely randomized grouping and randomized controlled study based on the experimental animals.SETTING: Central laboratory of altitude military affairs medical department and altitude research institute of preventive medicine department, a military medical university of Chinese PLA.MATERIALS: This study was carried out at the Experimental Animal Center of Third Military Medical University between October 2002 and April 2003. A total of 60 healthy male Kunming mice were randomly divided into irradiation damage group and healthy control group, each having 30 mice.METHODS: The 30 mice in irradiation damage group were exposed to 60Co-γ of irradiation at a dose rate of 1.27 Gy/minutes within a distance of 4 m. Then the mice' marrow cells were harvested at day 3 and day 7 after irradiation, and were cultured in vitro for 14 days and 21 days for observation. Meanwhile the other 30 healthy mice unexposed to irradiation were considered as normal controls.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Post-radiation number of MSCs colonies,cell cycle and DNA content.RESULTS: Although MSCs could grow and be adhered to walls after being exposed to irradiation of 5.0 Gy/s, the number of MSCs colonies was found significantly decreased compared to that of rnormal control group( P < 0.01 ).The colony number of the MSCs irradiated for 7 days obviously increased than that of MSCs irradiated for 3 days; however, MSCs recovered slowly and resulted in prolonged culture time, indicating the inhibited proliferation of MSCs due to irradiation damage. Results of flow cytometry showed that cells in G2+ M phase(2.60±0.41, 4.20±1.27) and DNA content (58.40±0.79,61.17 ± 1.35) in irradiation groups after 3-day and 7-day irradiation were obviously lower than those of normal control group(12.60 ±0. 75, 78.57±0. 83)(P <0.05-0.01).CONCLUSION: MSCs have relatively high sensitivity to irradiation damage and longer persisting period.

ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic effect of narrow band ultraviolet B ( NB VUB)and its influence on the expression of IL23/Th17 axis in peripheral blood of patients with Psoriasis vulgaris,and to further explore the mechanism of action of NB UVB.MethodsForty - eight cases of Psoriasis vulgaris were treated with NB-UVB irradiation for 20 times,the therapeutic effect was evaluated by the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) scores.Peripheral blood was obtained from normal healthy controls and patients with Psoriasis vulgaris before and after NB-UVB irradiation.Three color flow cytometry was carried out to quantify Thl7 cells,and ELISA was used to examine the levels of serum IL17 and IL23.Results The mean PASI scores were significantly decreased after treatment with NB UVB irradiation[ (8.12±4.05)score vs (3.98±2.03) score,P<0.01 ].Levels of Th17[ (2.78 ± 1.93)% vs (0.98±0.56)% ],IL-17[ (23.85±7.98) pg/ml vs (6.53±4.26) pg/ml] and IL-23 [ (29.73 ± 12.08)pg/ml vs ( 16.73±8.91 )pg/ml] were significantly higher in patients with Psoriasis vulgaris than that in healthy controls ( P <0.01 ).After treatment with NB-UVB irradiation,levels of Th17 [ ( 1.13 ± 0.51 ) % ],IL-17 [ ( 8.03±5.01 )pg/ml ],and IL-23 [ ( 17.03 ± 9.85 )pg/ml ] were significantly decreased than before ( P < 0.01 ),and were positively correlated with PASI ( P <0.05).ConclusionsNB-UVB may affect IL23/IL17 to achieve its therapeutic effect on patients with Psoriasis vulgaris.
