Chinese Journal of Clinical and Experimental Pathology 2015;(5):514-517
Purpose To discuss the relationship between age of onset and the HPV types infection in cervical adenocarcinoma. Meth-ods This study included 120 specimens of cervical adenocarcinoma in Jiangxi Maternal and Child Health Hospital. The specimen blocks were sliced by sandwich method. DNA was amplified by SPF10-PCR method. DNA genotyping was used with LiPA method. All biopsy specimens had pathologic diagnosis. The HPV infection of cervical adenocarcinoma specimens was analyzed. Results 120 ade-nocarcinoma cases were included in this study. HPV positive rate was 77. 5% (93/120). HPV 18 was the most prevalent type, which took up 43. 01% (40/93) of the total HPV positive cases, as same as HPV 16, which took up 43. 01%(40/93) of the total HPV pos-itive cases. The average ages of HPV 16 and HPV 18 were 43. 41 and 41. 06 years old respectively, other HPV types were 46. 85 years old, which showed statistically difference (F=3. 58, P=0. 032). Conclusion HPV 18 and HPV 16 are two most prevalent HPV types in cervical adenocarcinoma. The cases of HPV 18 infection are younger than other HPV-types infection.

Objective Eucheuma is rich in nutrients and can be an important raw material of food after processed. This study was designed to establish a feasible method of purifying polypeptides from eucheuma and investigate their activity against platelet aggre?gation and bacterial growth. Methods We extracted peptides from eucheuma with acidic solution, detected the effects of different doses of small molecular polypeptide ( 0, 5, 10, 20, and 40μg/mL) on the growth of Escherichia coli ( D1314) and Staphylococcus aureus (s.agr+, RN4220) using the method of turbidity, and analyzed the anti?platelet aggregation activity of the peptides with a whole blood aggregometer. Results The rates of peptides extracted from 50, 100,150, and 200 g of eucheuma were 0.382%, 0.405%, 0.389%, and 0.389%, respectively. The purified sample exhibited a single band on SDS?PAGE. The relative molecular weight of the peptides was about 3kD. The extracted peptides inhibited the growth of Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and thrombin?induced platelet aggregation in a dose?dependent manner, with inhibition rates of 44.71%, 51.86%, and 75.00%, respectively. Conclusion The present method can be used to successfully purify low?molecular?weight peptides from eucheuma and effectively inhibit platelet aggre?gation and bacterial growth. The peptides extracted is a potential anti?platelet aggregation agent.

Objective To study the value of lung window and soft tissue window in measuring colon diseases with experimental CTVC examination.Methods Twenty-four artificial polypoid diseases were placed with glue in a thoroughly cleaned porcine colon(overall length,150 era)that was distented with air and submerged in a water phantom and scanned 10 times on a 64-MSCT(GE Light speed)with identical scanning parameters.The data were reconstructed every 0.625 mm and reviewed using 2D images, navigation,MPR and 3D volume-rendered images on a GE AW 4.2 workstation.The maximum diameters of the artificial polypoids were measured by two radiologists with more than 10 years working experience in lung window(W = 1000,L =-700)and soft tissue window(W =400,L =40),respectively.The average value of maximum diameters of the artificial polypoids were measured for 10 times and were compared with the actual diameter.Results Twenty-four artificial polypoid diseases and their shape,size,loeation and relation of diseases with bowel wall were all showed excellently.The maximum diameter measured was close to the actual diameter.The average value was mostly less than actual diameter and a few of them more than the actual diameter.The maximum diameter measured in lung window was close to the actual diameter,and there was no difference between the two data sets(t =0.431,P =0.669).There was difference between the maximum diameter measured in soft tissue window and the virtual diameter(t = 2.691,P = 0.010). Conclusion In screening the colon diseases,CTVC is a good method of choice with no insult or less insult, and higher repeatability.The lung window should be chosen in measuring colon diseases in CTVC examination.

Objective To investigate the impact of aging and weight bearing on cartilage endplate morphology and chondrocyte apoptosis in rats. Methods The bipedal rat model (n=45) was developed by forelimb amputation and special breeding methods. The normal rats of the same age served as the control group (n=40). When the rats became 3, 6, 9, and 12 months old, 8 rats randomly selected from each group were sacrificed and paraffin-embedded mid-sagittal sections of the L4-5 spine were obtained. Sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and the TUNEL procedure was performed. The numbers of apoptotic cells and viable cells in the cartilage endplates of the intervertebral discs were counted, the thickness of the cartilage endplate was measured and the degree of impairment of the cartilage endplate was evaluated. Results Apoptosis first appeared in the cartilage endplate, then increased with aging and resulted in a remarkable decrease in cell density. The apoptotic rate of chondrocytes within the cartilage endplate of the bipedal rat model group was significantly higher than the control group at the 6-month time point. A statistically significant difference was observed in the bipedal rat model group between the 6-month time point and 9-month time point (P<0.05). Correlation analyses indicated that there was a highly negative correlation between the number of the viable cells of the cartilage endplate and the degree of the cartilage endplate degeneration (r=-0.97, P<0.05). Compared with the naturally aged group, the bipedal rat model group experienced more severe degeneration in the structure of the cartilage endplate, more obvious thickening of the cartilage endplate's calcified layer, and more defects in the structure of the cartilage. Conclusions Besides aging, weight bearing is probably a key factor of the increase of chondrocyte apoptosis and the degeneration of vertebral cartilage endplate.

Objective:Toprepare poly-DL-lactide-poly (PELA) microspheres encapsulating recombinant tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) adenovirus, and to investigate their effects on the proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells. Methods: The microsphere was constructed by encapsulating recombinant adenovirus containing TIMP-1 in biodegradable PELA. The diameter of the microsphere, quantity of virus encapsulated, loading rate, and releasing kinetics were measured. HepG2 cells were infected with the microspheres; the infection efficiency was examined by fluorescent microscope; and the ultrastructure was observed by TEM. The expression of TIMP-1 mRNA in HepG2 cells was examined by semi-quantitative RT-PCR, and the proliferation of HepG2 cells was detected by MTT assay. Results: The microsphere encapsulating recombinant TIMP-1 adenovirus was successfully constructed, with its diameter, entrapment efficiency, and virus loading rate being 1.965, 60.0%, and 10.5×10~8/mg, respectively. About 60% of the viruses were released within 120 h, and the total releasing time was longer than 240 h. Infection with rAdTIMP-1 PELA microsphere efficiently induced TIMP-1 expression in HepG2 cells, and significantly inhibited the proliferation of HepG2 cells, with the inhibitory rate being 47%. Conclusion: PELA microsphere encapsulating recombinant TIMP-1 adenovirus can markedly inhibit the proliferation of HepG2 cells, which provides an experimental basis for the combining macromolecular chemistry and gene therapy for treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective To evaluate the techniques and application of 64-slice helical CT colonography in colonic lesions. Methods Thirty-eight patients (including 12 colonic carcinomas,10 polypi, 9 colon multiple scrobiculus, 2 multiple diverticula, 2 negative, 1 congenital bowel malrotaion,1 ulcerative colitis and tunica mucosa glandular organ hyperplasy,1 colocolic anastomosis of terminal ileum and sigmoid colon) underwent volume scanning using 64-slice helical CT after cleaning colon. Six types of reconstruction including CT virtual colonoscopy(CTVC), volume rendering(VR), multiple planar reconstruction(MPR), 360?sectional view, RaySum,and navigation were gained.CTVC appearances were compared with that of conventional colonoscopy(CC).Results In 12 colonic carcinomas and 10 polypi,the lesions’ morphology,number,size, were satisfactorily shown by CTVC. The lesions’ location,range,and 1 intestinal canal obviously stenosis were also exactly shown by RaySum.The relationship between tumor and environment, 3 liver or retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis were satisfactorily shown by MPR and 2D transection image. On 360?sectional view,the distance between tumor and anus was exactly measured and the result was in conformity to that of CC. Of the CTVC appearances,1 sigmoid carcinoma and 1 transverse colon polyp was in unconformity to that of CC;1 ulcerative colitis and descending colon carcinoma was diagnosed as ulcerative colitis and tunica mucosa glandular organ hyperplasy by pathology.Conclusion 64-slice helical CT is a valuable imaging technique for detecting colon diseases. CTVC can obtain more clinical information than CC combining MPR,RaySum and VR.
