Objective To test whether sodium arsenite can induce in vitro reverse mutation of Salmonella typhimurium histamine-auxotroph mutant. Methods Ames test was carded out with Salmonella typhimurium strains TA97,TA98,TA100 and TA102 by standard method with or without the liver microsomal enzyme activation system (+S9,-S9). Results At concentrations of sodium arsenite from 500.00 to 5000.00 μg/plate, no colonies were seen on the plates of TA97,TA98,TA100 or TA102, with or without the presence of S9. At concentrations of sodium arsenite of 0.01,0.10,10.00 μg/plate and with the presence of S9, twice as many colonies grew on the plates of TA102 as the negative control(P<0.05). Without S9 activation,twice as many colonies grew on the plates of TA100 as the negative control(P<0.05)at concentrations of sodium arsenite of 1.00,10.00 μg/plate(P<0.05). The reverse mutation colonies induced by sodium arsenite in TA98 strain were twice as many as negative control group at concentrations of 0.01,0.10 μg/plate(P<0.05). There was no obvious increase of the strain clones in the other(P0.05). Conclusions With and without S9 activation, the doses of 500.00,5000.00 μg/plate sodium arsenite resulted in a toxic effect and a reduction of the revertants among the strain. At concentrations of 0.01～10.00 μg/plate, sodium arsenite exhibited mutngenesis effects.

CONCLUSIONS The stomatology department has a hidden danger to emergence of hospital infection,its infection management should be further strengthened.

Objective:To investigate the effects of sensitized sera on bone marrow transplantation and clarify the role of antibody in the process of rejection.Methods:Two hundred microlitres sensitized sera or non-sensitized sera were injected into normal BALB/c one day before transplantation.Ten millions (1?107) bone marrow cells from C57BL/6 were transfused to the recipients after lethal irradiation.The donor-reactive antibodies in recipients before transplantation were measured by complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) method.Moreover,the survival analysis and engraftment evaluation of the recipients were carried post transplantation.Results:The CDC results showed that donor-reactive antibodies existed in the recipients which had received sensitized sera transfusion.Eighty percent (80%) of the recipients received sensitized sera transfusion died of bone marrow failure about 10 days post transplantation,while the recipients received non-sensitized sera transfusion were long-term alive.Furthermore,the hematopoietic recovery and percentage of donor chimera analysis declined along with time in the sensitized sera transfusion recipients,and there were significant differences compared with those in the non-sensitized sera transfusion recipients (P

This study was aimed to investigate various factors influencing long-term survival in adult AML patients with fusion gene aml1/eto positive. A single institutional retrospective study with long-term follow-up was performed to better define the prognostic factors for AML patients with aml1/eto positive. Newly diagnosed 89 adult AML patients with aml1/eto positive were followed up for 1 to 42 months (median 24 months) from January 2004 to July 2008. Univariate and multivariate analysis of potential factors influencing survival and prognosis were carried out by using Log-Rank and Cox regression method, including sex, age, initial WBC counts, extramedullary leukemic disease, central nervous system leukemia (CNSL), chromosome aberrations, immunophenotype, first induction regimen, chemotherapy course to complete remission (CR), time from induction therapy to CR, negative or positive rate of aml1/eto and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and so on. The results showed that the estimated 5-year overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) were (50.0 +/- 2.3)% and (47.0 +/- 1.9)% respectively in follow-up of 89 patients for 1 - 42 months (mean 24 months). Univariate analysis revealed that initial WBC counts, CNSL, chemotherapy course to CR, time from induction therapy to CR, persistent negative in remission and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation were important prognostic factors for long-term surviva1. Multivariate study demonstrated that initial WBC counts, CNSL, CD56 positive, negative or positive rate of aml1/eto, time from induction therapy to CR, persistent negative result of RT-PCR assay in remission and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation were all critical factors in relation to OS and RFS. It is concluded that Chinese adult AML patients with fusion gene aml1/eto positive have some different characteristics as compared with patients from other countries, a relatively poor outcome is observed in patients, HSCT should be recommended to adult AML patients.

Objective To explore the changes of CD40 and CD40 ligand(CD40L) levels and investigate their significances in children with graft-versus-host disease(GVHD)after related-donor human leukocyte antigen(HLA) matching allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(HSCT).Methods Nineteen patients with ?-thalassemia major and 1 patient with congenital inherent hemolytic anemia accepted umbilical cord blood transplantation(UCBT) and allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation(allo-PBSCT),respectively,and all cases were received successfully related-donor human leukocyte antigen matching allogeneic HSCT.Peripheral blood samples were obtained before and after transplantation,the time when GVHD happened,the expressions of CD40 and CD40L were measured by using immunofluresence asssy.Results Four UCBT children and 3 allo-PBSCT children had no acute GVHD.Thirteen children had acute GVHD(degreeⅠ-Ⅳ),the expressions of CD40L on CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in the patients with acute GVHD increased,especially in allo-PBSCT.Five cases of UCBT and 12 cases of allo-PBSCT patients had chronic GVHD,the expressions of CD40L+,CD25+ and CD69+ on CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in patients with chronic GVHD increased obviously.The expression of CD19+CD40+ was lower than normal within 3 months after transplantation.Conclusions The high expression of CD40L+T cells in periferal blood after HSCT was related to the activation and proliferation of T cells in the development of GVHD in HSCT.

Objective: To analyze the risk factors for lung cancer and to provide scientific evidence for prevention of lung cancer. Methods: A total of 461 newly diagnosed patients with primary lung cancer from January 2015 to June 2017 in Shaoxing were selected as the case group. Six hundred healthy residents with the same residence,distribution of gender and age as the cases were selected as the control group by frequency matching method. A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect demographic characteristics,family history of major chronic diseases,disease history and behavioral factors. The method of case-control study and multivariate logistic regression model were used for statistical analysis of the risk factors for lung cancer. Results: The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for age and gender,family history of cancer（OR=6.606,95%CI：3.439-12.689）,history of lung diseases（OR=2.836,95%CI：1.208-6.659）,high level of stress（OR=2.485,95%CI：1.830-3.376）,low consumption of fresh vegetables（OR=3.116,95%CI：2.470-3.930）and smoking（OR=6.029,95%CI：3.716-9.783）were risk factors for lung cancer;after adjusting for age,gender,family history of cancer,history of lung diseases,stress levels and consumption of fresh vegetables,quitting smoking for less than ten years was a risk factor for lung cancer（OR=4.751,95%CI：2.404-9.386）compared with quitting smoking for ten years or above. Conclusion Family history of cancer,history of lung diseases,high level of stress,low consumption of fresh vegetables and smoking were risk factors for lung cancer.

Rivaroxaban is one of the new oral anticoagulants (NOAC) for preventing stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation. It has clear pharmacokinetic parameters, stable plasma concentration, less drug-drug interaction and higher compliance of patients. However, the discrepancy of pharmacokinetics between individuals and drug-induced hemorrhage events frequently occur clinically, therefore the association of gene polymorphism with drug metabolism has become a research hotspot. This article reviews the research progress on pharmacokinetic characteristics of rivaroxaban and its relationship with gene polymorphism, to provide a reference for the individualized rational use of rivaroxaban.

Objective:To investigate the effects of Shanxian granule on proliferation of Lewis lung cancer cells and anti-tumor immunity and immune microenvironment of Lewis lung cancer-bearing mice in order to explore the molecular mechanism of anti-tumor of Shanxian Granule and improve the anti-tumor immunity of the body, and provide further theoretical basis for its clinical application. Methods:Lewis lung cancer cells was transplanted to axillary skin to establish mouse tumor model. The mice divided into blank group,model group,chemotherapy group and Shanxian granule group. The tumor tissue of Lewis lung cancer tumor bearing mice was weighed and the tumor inhibition rate was calculated. Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of CD and CD8 in spleen tissue. The effect of lymphocytes on the proliferation of Lewis lung cancer cells was detected by CCK-8 method. The level of IFN-γ,TNF-βand IL-10 in peripheral blood were detected by ELISA. Results:①The tumor inhibition rate of Lewis lung cancer was 45. 99% in Shanxian Granule group,which was significantly higher than that of chemotherapy group (P<0. 05).②The lymphocytes of mouse can inhibit the proliferation of Lewis lung cancer cells and have a positive correlation with lymphocyte concentration and duration of action. Moreover,CD4+ T cells,CD4+/CD8+ratio and lymphocyte inhibition rate of Lewis lung cancer cells in model group and chem-otherapy group were significantly lower than those in blank group (P<0. 05). Shanxian granule group was significantly higher than the model group and chemotherapy group ( P<0. 05 ) . However, there was no significant difference between Shanxian granule group and blank group(P>0. 05).③The levels of IFN-γand TNF-βin peripheral blood of model group and chemotherapy group were significantly lower than those in blank group,while IL-10 was significantly higher than that in blank group (P<0. 05). The levels of IFN-γand TNF-βin peripheral blood of mice in Shanxian granule group were significantly higher than those in model group and chemotherapy group, while IL-10 was significantly lower than that in model group and chemotherapy group (P<0. 05). There was no significant difference in IFN-γ,TNF-β and IL-10 in peripheral blood of mice between Shanxian granule group and blank group. Conclusion:Shanxian granule can significantly inhibit the growth of tumor tissue of Lewis lung cancer tumor bearing mice,increase the spleen index of mice,enhance the activity of T lymphocytes,upregulate IFN-γ and TNF-β in peripheral blood and decrease IL-I. These suggested that the anti-tumor effect of Shanxian granule may be achieved by regulating the content of CD4+ T lymphocyte,the ration of CD4+/CD8+ and Th1/Th2 ratio,in order to restore the immune steady function of tumor patients,improve the immune system and enhance the immune surveillance function.
