Objective:To study the expression of 11 cancer-testis (CT) genes and autologous humoral immune response to NY-ESO-1 in gastric carcinoma in China to provide some data for developing a vaccine against this cancer. Methods: Pathology tests were conducted in 101 gastric carcinoma samples,including tumor tissue and paired adjacent normal non-tumor tissue. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to test for 11 CT antigen gene expression and ELISA for autologous humoral immune response to NY-ESO-1.The antigen of NY-ESO-1 was also detected in tumor tissues by mAb E978 in IHC.Results: About 74.3% of the samples expressed at least one CT antigen,and the most frequently expressed one was MAGE-3 (41.6%). Twelve out of the 101 samples (11.9%) were found to be NY-ESO-1 mRNA positive. Simultaneously, autologous humoral immune response to NY-ESO-1 was detected in 6 of 12 NY-ESO-1 mRNA positive patients. Conclusion: Multiple CT genes were expressed in gastric cancer samples. MAGE-3,SSX-1,SSX-4, NY-ESO-1/LAGE-1, and MAGE-1 can be chosen as candidate antigens for cancer vaccines due to their higher expression rate. The potential of a multivalent CT antigen vaccine, including NY-ESO-1 and MAGE-3 along with other CT antigens, should be evaluated in patients with gastric cancer.

Objective To investigate the expression and pathological diagnostic utility of ?-methylacyl-coenzyme A racemase(P504S)in prostate cancer(PC). Methods The specimens of 42 cases of PC,18 cases of prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia(PIN)and 25 cases of benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH)tissues were immunohistochemical stained with P504S,34?E 12 and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)antibody,respectively. Their staining extent and intensity were analyzed and compared. Results Of the 42 PC cases,33(79%)showed positive P504S staining with moderate to strong staining intensity, which was significantly stronger than that of PIN and BPH cases,while adjacent normal glands were all negative. Weakly positive P504S staining was found in 6(33%)of 18 PIN cases and 2(8%)of 25 BPH cases,while it was negative in others.The specimens of BPH cases had a complete basal cell layer and were positive for 34?E 12 ;while 40 cases of PC had no basal cell layer and only 2 cases had discontinuous basal cell layers with weak staining.The basal cell layers of PIN cases were positive for 34?E 12 and the staining was a little weaker than that of BPH cases.All the specimens of BPH,PIN and PC cases showed positive staining for VEGF,the extent and staining intensity had no significant difference among these groups. Conclusions P504S has high sensitivity and good specificity in the diagnosis of PC,and is helpful for differentiating the suspected cases when combined with 34?E 12.

Objective: Fetal monitoring is extremely important in perinatal care. Analysis of cardiotocogragh(CTG) can suppose if the fetus is lack of oxygen, distressed, acidosis, etc. in order to take measures timely. Methods: We have designed Meticare analysis software package to analyze 867 pieces of CTG data, and researched the relationship between short term variation (STV) and basal heart rate(BHR) by statistics, and short time monitoring analysis based on STV. Results: The amplitude of fetal heart rate curve variation(long term variation) tended to decrease when BHR increasing, with the negative correlation and regression equation STV = 9.866-0.02×BHR. Positive correlation exists between 5 and 10 mimute-STV, with the regression equation STV_(10min)=2.861-0.596×STV_(5min).Conclusion: STV calculated by 5 minutes CTG data can forecast the one by 10 minutes data as a reference demanded by Dawes & Redman criterion. If fetal doppler contains STV analysis function, out-patient fetal heart auscultation will be more significant. After 30 weeks pregnancy, with the STV decreasing, fetal distress, asphyxia, low birth weight, and even mortality increasing. BHR increasing should cause attention that STV might decrease, when monitoring with no analysis functional devices or fetal dopplars.

Allergic diseases such as allergic asthma, allergic der-matitis, allergic rhinitis, are polygenic diseases, involving the interaction between the environment, genes and immunity. In the past few decades, the incidence rate of allergic diseases in-creased predominantly and influenced the quality of people's lives seriously, so looking for new targets for the prevention and treat-ment of allergic diseases and drugs with less adverse reaction be-comes a hot topic for researchers. MicroRNAs(miRNAs)are a class of endogenous non-coding small RNAs that mediate nega-tively posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression by targe-ting specific mRNA sequences to inhibit the translation of mR-NAs. They are widely involved in the biological processes of cell differentiation, immune response and tumor development. The study shows that miRNAs can control the occurrence and devel-opment of allergic diseases. Studying the regulatory role of miR-NAs in allergic diseases has important implications for exploring the immunopathological mechanisms and discovering new thera-peutic targets of drugs.
