Objective:To investigate the relationship between the expression mP53 and microvessel density urothelial carcinoma of the bladder and its clinical pathological significance. Methods: Immunohistochemistry(Envision method) was used to detect the expression of mP53 and FⅧ-RAg in 50 tissue specimens of primary BUC and 10 tissue specimens of normal mucosa of bladder .The results were analyzed with the clinic and pathological characters of BUC. Results: The expression of mP53 and MVD had significant differences between the tissues of normal mucosa of the bladder and the tissues of the BUC; but not related to the tumor size. mP53 and MVD value had correlation to different stages (according to UICC-TNM ), different grades (according to WHO), and recurrence(P

Objective The whole process of vaccine preparation is time-consuming and technically challenging. Here the hGM-CSF-engineered K-562 cell line was constructed to simplify tumor vaccine preparation process. Methods The eukaryocyte expressing plasmid pcDNA3.1/GM-CSF was first constructed and its accuracy was verified through sequencing. The pcDNA3.1/GM-CSF was transfected into COS-7 cells to verify GM-CSF expression and cytokine activity using TF-1 cell line. Then the plasmid was transfected into K-562 cell line using liposome method, and was selected under G-418 and sub-cloned by limiting dilution. GM-CSF product from the monoclone GM-CSF-K-562 cell lines was quantified using ELISA method. Results We successfully constructed the hGM-CSF eukaryocyte expressing plasmid and hGM-CSF expressing K-562 cell line. Conclusion The construction of K-562/GM-CSF line will simplify the preparation of tumor vaccine, thus facilitating the application of tumor vaccination therapy in clinical application.

Objective:To prepare a pig model of obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS) and to observe the hemodynamics and pathological characteristics of common carotid artery,so as to lay a foundation for further studying the effect of OSAHS on cardiovascular system.Methods: Twelve male small-type pigs were randomly divided into model group and control group(n=6).Animals in the model group were housed in a negative pressure chamber for 6 months to establish OSAHS model and those in the normal control group were fed routinely.After pigs in the model group presented the symptoms of OSAHS,the changes in hemodynamics of carotid artery were detected with color Doppler ultrasound.The morphological changes of common carotid artery were analyzed under light microscope and electron microscope.Results: Animal model of OSAHS was successfully created.The internal diameter of carotid artery of pigs in the model group was decreased,the intima was increased,and the peak-systolic mean velocity(S) and the resistance index(RI) were both increased compared with those of the control group(P

Objective To observe the effect of amylin on the islet β-cells voltage-gated L-calcium channels in rats. Method Patch clamp technique was employed in the observation of the features and changes of electric current of islet β-cells voltage-gated L-calcium channels before and after using amylin. Results In the glucose environment of 5. 5 mmoL/L, the electric current of rat islet β-cells voltage-gated L-calcium channels was activated at-40 mV and reached the peak at about +20 mV, with a peak value of about-120 pA and the insulin secretion level was(0. 76±0. 12) μg/L. Under the stimulation of glucose of 16. 7 mmol/L, the peak current voltage moved to the left and increased up to-140 pA and the level of insulin secretion measured (1.78±0. 13) μg/L. Hatch islet β-cells in amylin at the concentrations of 0. 5, 1.0, 5.0 and 10.0 μmol/L, respectively. It was observed that in the 0. 5 μmol/L and 1.0 μmol/L groups,there was no remarkable change in the peak potential activation voltage, current, and insulin secretion volume in comparison with the control group. However, in the environment of 5.5 mmol/L glucose, the increase of activation voltage of the 5.0 and 10.0 μmol/L groups was-30 mV, with the peak current reduced to approximately-80 pA and-60 pA and the insulin secretion decreased to (0. 49±0. 11) μg/L and (0. 36±0. 12) μg/L respectively. Under the concentration of 16. 7 mmol/L glucose, the activation voltage increased from-40 mV up to-30 mV and the peak current reduced to-80 pA and-40 pA. In the meantime, the insulin secretion decreased respectively to (1.20±0. 13) μg/L and (0. 89±0. 14) μg/L, which is of significance. Conclusion The secretion of insulin is synchronized with the opening of the islet β-cells voltage-gated L-calcium channels at the stimulation of glucose. The amylin inhibition of the insulin secretion is also synchronized with the opening of islet β-cells voltage-gated L-calcium channels and it's in a positive concentration-dependent manner.

It can be used for clinical human astrovirus detection and epidemiological investigation.

Objective To study the clinic effect and safety of MEAD chemotherapy regimen for adult patients with relapsed or refractory acute lymphocyte leukemia. Methods Between July 2006 and July 2009,twenty-two adult patients with relapsed or refractory acute lymphocyte leukemia received MEAD regimen (mitoxantrone 6 mg/d dl-3 iv drip,cytarabine 100 mg/d dl-5 iv drip,etoposide 100 mg/d dl-5 iv drip,dexmethasone 10 mg/d dl-8 iv drip). Results The complete remission (CR) rate of adult patients with relapsed or refractory acute lymphocyte leukemia was 31.8 %,the partial remission(PR) rate was 22.7 % and the overall response (OR) rate 54.5 %. The cumulitive CR rate was 50.0 %,and the PR rate 40.9 % after two times MEAD chemotherapy regimen. The main adverse effect was different level of myelosuppression,and other toxicity of vital organ was mild. Conclusion MEAD regimen is effective and can be tolerated for adult patients with relapsed or refractory acute lymphocyte leukemia,and its side effect is mild.

Objective To explore the relationship between traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes of state of evil domination and clinical and laboratory indicators of IgA nephropathy. Methods A prospective study was used to collect data on clinical and laboratory examination of IgA nephropathy in multi clinical centers. Patients’ TCM syndrome types were determined according to the national diagnostic criteria at the same time. Totally 266 patients with IgA nephropathy were included in the study to establish a database for analyzing the relationship between TCM syndrome of state of evil domination and clinical and laboratory indicators. Results In the relationship between syndromes of state of evil domination distribution and clinical subtypes, patients of wind-heat syndrome had more macroscopic hematuria;patients of phlegm-damp syndrome had more nephrotic syndrome;patients of damp-heat syndrome had more chronic nephritis type Ⅰ;patients of blood stasis syndrome had more chronic nephritis type Ⅱ. In the relationship between syndrome of state of evil domination distribution and clinical manifestation, the incidence of hypertension was higher in patients of blood stasis syndrome than in other three types. It was more serious for hematuresis in the patients of wind-heat syndrome. For patients of phlegm-damp syndrome, the incidence of heave proteinuria was highest. In the relationship between syndrome of state of evil domination distribution and laboratory examination, 24-hour urinary protein quantification was higher than in patients of wind-heat and damp-heat syndrome, but the level of blood albumin was lowest. For patients of blood stasis syndrome, serum creatinine level was significantly higher than in other three types;the level of eGFR was just the opposite. The levels of blood cholesterol and triglyceride in patients of phlegm-damp syndrome were higher than in other three types. The activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) levels in patients of blood stasis and phlegm-damp syndrome were lower than in other patients, but the FIB level was the exact opposite of APTT. In the relationship between syndrome of state of evil domination distribution and the stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD), patients of wind-heat syndrome were more in the first stage of CKD;patients of blood stasis syndrome were more in the third stage of CKD. Conclusion There is relative correlation between TCM syndromes of state of evil domination and clinical and laboratory indicators in IgA nephropathy, which would provide some reference to narrow the gap in the information of the four methods of TCM with clinical and laboratory indicators to enhance accurate diagnosis of TCM syndrome.
