Objective: To investigate the candidal infection status in puerperas in Lanzhou, and the candidal transmission from mothers to their newborn infants. Methods: Vaginal fluid and saliva samples from 104 puerperas, as well as 104 saliva samples from their newborn infants were collected. The Candida species were cultured, isolated and identified using CHROMagar media. Further identification was done using molecular biological method. Results; In 81 of 312 specimens (104 x2 from mothers and 104 from infants), Candida species were found. 39.42% (41 cases) was observed in the vaginal fluid and 33.65% (35 cases) was in saliva of puerperas respectively, and 21. 15% (22 cases) in both vagina and oral cavity. 4.81% (5 cases) was found in oral cavities of newborn infants. The distribution of Candida species were 53 Candida albicans, 33 Candida glabrata, 2 Candida krusei and 1 Candida tropical. In 2 pairs of mother-infant, the same genotype of Candida ablicans was identified using PCR method. Conclusion; The Candida detection rate of newborn infants and transmission rate from mothers to their neonates in Lanzhou are higher than that reported in other areas. The colonization of Candida in newborn infants is relevant to both horizontal and vertical transmission. It can decrease the possibility of Candidal infection in newborn infants by controlling the Candidal transmission in hospital and preventing the infection in pregnant women.

BACKGROUND:Tumor recurrence results from the incomplete removal of cancer stem cel s with self-renewal characteristics, and then how to label and eliminate cancer stem cel s becomes the key to cancer treatment. OBJECTIVE:To observe the morphology,distribution and number of CD44+/C-myc+METHODS:Pathological tissues from 150 patients with colorectal cancer were taken to prepare tissue microarray, in order to observe and count CD44 cel s in colorectal cancer, and to explore the relationship between the expression and postoperative metastasis.+/C-myc+cel s by using immunohistochemical double staining. Patients were fol owed up through mobile phones , letters , and so on, and the relationship between the expression of CD44+/C-myc+cel s and postoperative metastasis were statistical y recorded.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There was no CD44+/C-myc+cel s in normal tissue and little in adenoma. A smal number of CD44+/C-myc+cel s distributed as dots or focal lesions in adenocarcinoma. The number of CD44+/C-myc+cel s was related to the degree of adenocarcinoma differentiation, depth of invasion, and lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). The univariate analysis showed that the overal survival rate and progression-free survival rate were associated with the number of CD44+/C-myc+cel s, lymph node metastasis and Ducks staging in adenocarcinoma (P<0.05). The multivariate analysis showed that the overal survival rate was related to CD44+/C-myc+cel amount and the progression-free survival rate was related to CD44+/C-myc+cel amount and the Ducks staging. Therefore, CD44+/C-myc+cel s are probably cancer stem cel s, and Ducks staging and CD44+/C-myc+cel amount are important prognostic factors for colorectal cancer.

Background and purpose: As one of the important epigenetic phenomena, DNA methylation plays an important regulatory function for the expression of genes. Study shows that abnormal changes of DNA methy-lation patterns of normal tumor cell genome leads to dysfunction of cancer related gene, and this may be associated with tumor occurrence and development. The study investigated the promoter methylation and expression of caveolin-1 (CAV-1) gene in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), and to elucidate its role in ESCC. Methods:We used MSP approach, RT-PCR, and immunohistochemistry method respectively to examine the methylation status of the 5’CpG island of CAV-1 gene and its expression at mRNA and protein levels in tumors and corresponding normal tissues. Results: CAV-1 mRNA expression in tumor tissues (0.86±0.56) was signiifcantly higher than that in corresponding normal tissues (0.40±0.36, P<0.05). The mRNA expression of CAV-1 was correlated with status of lymphatic metastasis and TNM stage of ESCC patients (P<0.05). The protein expression of CAV-1 in tumor specimens (66.7%, 34/51) was signiifcantly higher than that in corresponding normal tissues (15.7%, 8/51, P<0.01). The protein expression of CAV-1 was signiifcantly associated with lymphatic metastasis of ESCC (P<0.05), however, it was not associated with differen-tiation and TNM stage (P>0.05). The promoter methylation frequency of CAV-1 in tumor specimens was 2.0%(1/51), and the methylation phenomenon has not been found in corresponding normal tissues. The promoter methylation fre-quency of CAV-1 in tumor specimens showed no signiifcant difference compared with the corresponding normal tissues (P>0.05). Conclusion:The mRNA and protein expression of CAV-1 in tumor specimens was signiifcantly higher than that in corresponding normal tissues. Aberrant high expression of CAV-1 has played a certain role in promoting tumori-genesis and lymph node metastasis. The expression both in ESCC and corresponding normal tissues has no correlation with the promoter methylation status.

Objective To compare the clinical outcomes of two D3 embryo and single blastocyst transfer in patients retrieving different oocytes, so as to provide data support for selecting a clinical transfer strategy. Methods We made a retrospective analysis of patients who underwent in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI)between January and December 2014 in the Reproductive Medicine Center,the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University.The patients were divided into three groups according to the number of oocytes received:Group A (5-9 oocytes),Group B (10 - 14 oocytes)and Group C (≥ 1 5 oocytes).Patients in each group all received four different transfer methods as follows:transfer of two fresh D3 embryos (a ),transfer of one fresh blastocyst (b ),transfer of two D3 frozen embryos (c ),and transfer of one frozen blastocyst (d ).We compared the 2PN fertilization rate of oocytes,rate of available embryos and rate of good embryos among the three groups.We also compared the embryo implantation rate,biochemical pregnancy rate,clinical pregnancy rate, multiplets rate and abortion rate among the four transfer methods in each group.Results ① There were 667, 573,and 479 transfer cycles in Group A,Group B and Group C,respectively.The 2PN fertilization rate of IVF and available embryos rate was significantly higher in Group A than in Group B and Group C (P =0.003/P <0.001).② There was no significant difference in biochemical pregnancy rate,clinical pregnancy rate or abortion rate with the four transfer methods in Group A (P >0.05),but the implantation rate of c was significantly lower than that of a and d (P =0.027/0.020),d had a higher implantation rate than a and c in Group B (P =0.005/0.001).In Group C,the biochemical pregnancy rate and clinical pregnancy rate of d were significantly higher than those of a (P =0.048/0.027)and c (P =0.003/0.001).Patients in Group C also had a higher implantation rate than D3 embryos (P <0.05).③ The multiple pregnancy rate of single blastocyst transfer decreased compared with D3 embryos transfer in the three groups (P <0.05).Conclusion Single blastocyst transfer has both higher implantation rate and lower multiple pregnancy rate in high response patients (1 5 or more oocytes received).For patients who received 5-9 and 10-14 oocytes,D3 embryos have a similar clinical pregnancy rate with that of single blastocyst but a higher multiple pregnancy rate.Single vitrified-warmed blastocyst transfer has a higher clinical pregnancy rate.It is the best transfer method for patients who received more than 10 oocytes.

Purpose To investigate the expression of Cav-1 in gastric cancer ( GC) cell lines and GC samples, and to analyze the pos-sible effect of gene methylation in expression of Cav-1. Methods Methylation specific PCR ( MSP) method was applied to examine the CpG methylation of the Cav-1 promoter in GC cell lines (AGS, MKN45, BGC-823) and 104 samples of GC and corresponding ad-jacent tissues. RT-PCR method was applied to examine the mRNA expression in GC cell lines. IHC were applied to examine the pro-tein expression of Cav-1 in the GC tissues. Results The expression level of Cav-1 mRNA was obviously increased after treated with 5-aza-2’-deoxycytidine (5-Aza-Dc, a demethylation agent) in AGS cell line. We detected the positive expression of Cav-1 gene in MKN45 and BGC-823 cell lines before and after treated with 5-Aza-Dc. The level of Cav-1 mRNA expression was no any change in AGS, MKN45 and BGC-823 cell lines treated with trichostatin A (TSA). MSP results showed that it can be amplified methylated bands in AGS cell line, and the methylated bands disappeared after treated with 5-Aza-Dc. MKN45 and BGC-823 cell lines were no any methylated bands amplified before and after treatment. The methylation frequency of Cav-1 gene was 29. 8% (31/104), which was significantly higher than that in adjacent tissues (P=0. 000). Furthermore, Cav-1 gene hypermethylation status was correlated with lymph node metastasis and family history of upper gastrointestinal cancers ( UGIC) , but not with pathological grade and clinical stage (P>0. 05). The positive frequency of Cav-1 expression was 51. 9%(54/104) in GC, which was significantly lower than that in adja-cent tissues (P=0. 000). The expression of Cav-1 was correlated with the frequency of gene methylation in GC tissues (P=0. 000). Conclusion The expression of Cav-1 was reduced in GC tissues and the gene hyermethylation may be one of the mechanisms causing Cav-1 gene silencing.
