OBJECTIVE To study the correlation between mutations of gyrA and parC genes and ciprofloxacin-(resistant) clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii from Chengdu.METHODS The genes of gyrA and parC DNA in 28 ciprofloxacin-resistant and 2 ciprofloxacin-susceptible isolates of A.baumannii were amplified by PCR and then analyzed by restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP) and DNA sequencing.(RESULTS) Hinf Ⅰ digestion of the gyrA gene products of susceptible isolates(generated) two fragments,but resistant isolates(generated) one fragment.The parC gene products generated 2 fragments.DNA sequencing of 5 resistant isolates revealed mutations in gyrA gene that resulted in amino acid substitutions: Ser83→Leu and Ala88→Thr,especially,Ser83 point mutation accounting for the disappearance of sequence of Hinf Ⅰ.There was not any mutation in(gyrA) of 1 susceptible isolate;the substitution of Ser108→Ile in parC(gene) of 1 susceptible and 1 resistant isolates were identified,the remaining four isolates had more nosense mutations.CONCLUSIONS Compared with parC gene mutations,(gyrA) gene mutations of A.baumannii appears to be the main molecular mechanism responsible for ciprofloxacin resistance.The high-level ciprofloxacin resistance in A.baumannii probably needs a variety of mutations.

Objective To investigate the effect of target diameter and target-to-background ratio (TBR) on the measurement of SUVmax [| (true SUV-SUVmax)/true SUV | × 100％,△SUVmax) in PET.Methods Six cylinders with various diameters from 5 to 29 mm were inserted in National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) NU 2-1994 phantom.The six cylinders and background of phantom were filled with18F-FDG solution.Six different TBRs (1.79,3.70,6.25,10.59,14.87 and 17.88) were obtained by changing the 18F-FDG concentration in the six cylinders.The PET data were acquired in the 2D mode,and the target's inner diameter and SUVmax were measured.The logarithmic fitting curves of △SUVmax with diameter in different TBRs using equations (y=aln(x)+b) were acquired by Microsoft excel,| a| as the influence power of diameter on △SUVmax.Statistical analysis was performed with Pearson correlation test and curve estimation utilizing SPSS 17.0.Results The Pearson correlation coefficient between △SUVmax and diameter was-0.806 (P＜0.01).△SUVmax was inversely correlated with the diameter.When the diameter (the inner diameter measured on PET images) was 4.0 mm,△SUVmax could be as high as 79.73％ with different TBRs.The Pearson correlation coefficient between the influence power of diameter on △SUVmax (| a |) and TBRs was 0.848 (P＜0.05).When TBR was 6.25,10.59 and 14.87,the corresponding |a| was similar:38.019,39.998 and 39.362,respectively.When TBR was 17.88,| a| was the highest as 43.234.When TBR was 1.79 and 3.70,|a| was much smaller:14.141 and 23.411 respectively.Conclusions The lesion diameter is inversely correlated with △SUVmax.The influence power of diameter on △SUVmax is strongly correlated with TBR.Therefore,the effect of target diameter and TBR on the measurement of SUVmax should be taken into consideration for follow-up studies.

砄bjective:To purify and characterize human high molecular eight salivary mucin(MG1).Methods: MG1 was purified by 10%(w/v) cetyltrimethylammonium bromid precipitation, CM Sephadex ion exchange chromatography and sephadax G 200 gel filtration chromatography.

Purpose: To enhance one's ability to diagnose intracranial microcystic meningioma. Methods: Fifteen cases of intracranial microcystic meningioma have been studied either clinicopathologically, or ultrastructurally or immunohistochemically. Results: The results indicate that electron microscopy and immunohistochemically are very helpful for the diagnosis of the tumor. There was no predilection as to location, however the tumor was more common on the base of skull. Vacuole-like structure and/or vesicular dilatation could be seen in the cytoplasm and capillaries could be observed in between the spindle cells by light microscopy. Under electron microscopy, the processes separated from each other and formed into a cystic structure, and bundles of collagenous fiber could be found in it. In immunohistochemistry, the stains with vimentin and epithelium membrane antigen (EMA) were positive. Conclusions: Intracranial microcystic meningioma has some characteristics under the microscope, immunohistochemistry is helpful in its diagnosis, and election microscopy can confirm this diagnosis.

Objective: To investigate which step of IL-6 signal transduction pathways in myeloma cells can be taken as the acting target of the antagonists for IL-6. Methods: EMSA and immunoprecipitation were used to detect the activation of transcription factors(TFs)-STAT3, NF-IL-6 and protein kinase ERK in a myeloma cell line-Sko-007 by IL-6. then anti-sense expression plasmids and anti-sense ODN for these signal moleculars were constructed and designed,the effects of these anti-sense nucleic acids on IL-6 signal transduction in Sko-007 cells were analyzed by the same methods. Results: IL-6 signal transduction could be antagonized by these anti-sense nucleic acids at different extent.Conclusion: TFs or protein kinases in IL-6 signal trareduction pathways can be taken as the target for antagonists design.
