Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of the detection of the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) DNA typing in therapy of cervical diseases. Methods 780 cases have been studied. These cases which showed HPV-DNA positive and were diagnosed by biopsy as cervical cancer or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia( CIN Ⅰ-Ⅲ) were treated by operation or physical therapy. And 6 months and 12 months after the treatment,TCT and HPV DNA test were carried out. Results The prevalence of HPV-DNA types among the 780 cases descended from HPV 16 to 52,58,18,33 and 31. Detection rates of HPV-52 and 58 were highest among the patients with CIN Ⅰ. In patients with CIN Ⅱ,CIN Ⅲ,carcinoma in situ and invasive carcinoma,the positive rate of HPV-16 was obviously higher than other genotypes,and the difference was significant (P<0. 01 ). 520 cases were followed-up after treatment,we found that HPV-DNA subsided within 3 months to 1 year in 432 cases. 88 cases still showed the HPV-DNA positive, among this group 48 cases were cytology diagnosed as normal or inflammation,but 14 cases were ASC-US,22 cases were LSIL and 4 cases were HSIL. Cytology abnormal cases were mere often detected in patients with persistent HPV-positive than in patients with HPV-negative. Conclusion Referring patients with cervical diseases the common HPV genotypes are 16,52,58,18,33 and 31. Especially HPV-16 are closely related with cervical cancer and high-level cervical intraepithelial neoplasis. HPV-DNA turn negative in most patients in 12 months after treatment. Persistent infection of HPV-DNA is related with the pathological changes persist.

Objective To determine the clinical value of hysteroscopy technology in high risk planned abortion. Methods A retrospective study of clinical manifestation, medical tests, treatment methods and effects of 97 cases (hospitalized from June, 2013 to October 2014) was made in the research. Of the 97 cases, 53 underwent UAE, and 44 did not undergo UAE. The risk factors and treatment features were concluded. Results The hemorrhage risk relates to menopause period. The longer menopause period, the higher the hemorrhage risk will be. The hemorrhage risk has nothing to do with HCG. For those whose menopause is less than 56 days, hemorrhage risk showed no difference between groups with or without UAE. For those whose menopause is less than 56 days, hemorrhage risk decreases in group with UAE. Hemorrhage risk and hysterectomy possibility are higher if menopause has happened for more than 11 weeks. Conclusion Cesarean scar pregnancy needs to be detected and treated early, in this way, the possibility for complications can be lowered. For cases whose menopause has been more than e weeks, hemorrhage risk should be cautioned.

Background and purpose: Resistance of cancer cells to chemotherapy is a major clinical obstacle to successful treatment and leads to poor prognosis for the patients. MicroRNA (miRNA) plays a vital role in tumor cells response to chemotherapeutic agents. This study plans to investigate the expressions of miRNA27a and miRNA451 in ovarian cancer and breast cancer cells and its correlation with drug resistance. Methods:A2780/Taxol cells were established using stepwise selection;Stem-loop quantitative real-time PCR (stem-loop RT-PCR) was used to detect expression of miRNA27a and miRNA451 in ovarian cancer and breast cancer cells. The A2780 and A2780/Taxol cells were transfected with the mimics or inhibitors of miRNA27a or negative control (NC) RNA and the mimics of miRNA451 or NC were transfected into MCF-7/ADM cells by LipofectamineTM 2000. The expression levels of MDR1 mRNA and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) were examined using RT-PCR and Western blot respectively. MTT method was used to analyze drug sensitivity. Results:The expression of miRNA27a was an average of (2.2±0.30) times higher in A2780/Taxol cells than in A2780 cells, with a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). The expression of miRNA451 was lower by 84%in MCF-7/ADM cells than in MCF-7 cells, with a signiifcant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). A2780/Taxol cells transfection with inhibitors of miRNA27a showed that the levels of MDR1 mRNA was decreased by (39±0.14)%, P-gp level [(26±5.3)%] decreased compared with the NC group [(43±6.7)%], the IC50 (0.53μmol/L) was less than the NC group (6.8μmol/L), and there was a signiifcant difference between two groups (P<0.05). Transfection of A2780 cells with mimics of miRNA27a led to increase MDR1 mRNA expression by (121±0.11)%and decrease the sensitivity to paclitaxel (IC50:0.2μmol/L vs 0.06μmol/L). There was a signiifcant difference between two groups (P<0.05). Transfection of MCF-7/ADM cells with mimics of miRNA451 showed that expression of MDR1 mRNA was decreased by (65±12)%, P-gp [(31±19)%] was less than the NC group [(83±12)%], the sensitivity of cells to adriamycin enhanced and the IC50 of adriamycin (4.61μmol/L) was less than the NC group (26μmol/L), and there was a signiifcant difference between two groups (P<0.05). Conclusion:The expressions of miRNA27a and miRNA451 are deregulated in A2780/Taxol and MCF-7/ADM cells respectively, which may play vital roles in drug resistance by regulating MDR1/P-gp expression directly or indirectly.

Objective To observe BQ123 on lung tissue injury following ischemia-reperfusion of hind limbs in rats.Methods A total of 30 male SD rats were randomly divided into control,I-R,and BQ123 groups,with 10 rats in each group. After 4- hour of ischemia and 4-hour of reperfusion to the hind limbs, ET-1 was measured by radioimmunoassay, levels of myeloperoxidase (MPO) and malondialehyde (MDA) were examined by biochemical method,and the content of P-selectin was examined by ELISA. Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expressions of Fas,Bcl-2 and Caspase-3 in lung tissues. Pulmonary apoptosis was examined by means of TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling ( TUNEL) . Results Compared with the control group,the levels of ET-1,MPO,MDA and P-selectin in lung tissues were all increased significantly in I-R group ( P<0. 01). The expressions of Fas,Bcl-2 and Caspase-3 were 0. 294±0. 003,0. 108±0. 005,and 0. 174±0. 003,significantly up-regulated in the I-R group. The apoptosis rate [(18. 83±2. 86)%] was significantly increased in the I-R group (P<0. 01). Compared with I-R group,the tissue contents of ET-1,MPO,MDA and P-selectin were significantly lowered in BQ123 group (P<0. 01). The expression levels of Fas (0. 115±0. 007) and Caspase-3 (0. 159±0. 006) were decreased,but the expression of Bcl-2 was increased (0. 128±0. 005). The apoptosis rate in BQ123 group was significantly lower [(10. 67±2. 16)%,P<0. 01].Conclusion BQ123 may have protective effects on lung tissue after limb ischemia-reperfusion in rats by means of improving neutrophil aggregation and reducing the expression of proteins related to cell apoptosis.
