Bruton tyrosine kinase (Btk) is a member of the non-receptor protein tyrosine kinases of Tec family.It plays an important role in growth,proliferation,differentiation and signal transduction of B lymphocyte.After activation of B-cell receptor (BCR) by diverse stimuli,Btk is activated through tyrosine phosphorylation.Activated Btk can stimulate several downstream signaling proteins.Btk and BCR signaling pathways play important roles in initiation and maintenance of B cell malignancies.This review focuses on the recent findings in association of Btk and B cell malignancies.

Objective To investigate the immune disorder in elderly patients with severe ischemic stroke and to explore whether a new type of diabetes-specific enteral nutrition formula can regulate the immune function of these patients.Methods In the randomized controlled prospective study,90 patients aged 60-80 years with acute ischemic stroke and NIHSS score more than 10 and dysphagia were randomized to two groups:receiving a new type(Group A) of,versus traditional(Group B) diabetes-specific enteral nutrition.30 Patients aged 60-80 years with acute ischemic stroke and NIHSS score ≥10 without dysphagia were enrolled as control(Group C).The immune function was observed,and the nutritional status and immunological function were compared between two different enteral nutrition groups at 7 days of treatment.Results After 7 day follow-up,the serum lipid stats significantly ameliorated in group A.An obvious suppression of immune state was observed in severe acute ischemic patients at onset of 7 days.At day 7 of treatment,the percentage of CD3+ T cells in group A was(69.25±9.93)％ after treatment vs.(63.36±7.79)％ at baseline(P＜0.001),and CD3 +CD4+T cells was(45.79±9.47)％ after treatment vs.(36.12±9.15)％ at baseline(P＜0.001),as well as CD4+/CD8+ cells were(2.27±1.40)％ after treatment vs.(1.70±0.82)％ at baseline(P=0.001).At 7 days of treatment,the percentage of CD3+ T cells was higher in group A (69.25 ±9.93) ％ than in group B(63.07± 9.47) ％ (P＜0.001),and the percentage of CD3 + CD4 cells was higher in group A(45.79 ± 9.47) ％ than in group B(41.32 ± 8.89) ％ (P=0.024).Conclusions Enteral nutrition preparations can provide sufficient energy support in the acute ischemic stroke.Immunosuppressive state exists in patients with acute phase of severe ischemic stroke.The new type of diabetic enteral nutrition formula can significantly improve immunosuppressive state in patients with acute severe stroke.

Objective To assess the public health service quality objectively in Shenzhen,and promote the equity of basic public health services.Methods The criterion and method of the assessment were established by municipal health administrative department,the assessment of institutions and regions were conducted by experts selected by municipal professional institutions.Regional assessment was the comprehensive evaluation of public health service qualities of professional public health institutions,medical institutions and the community health centers.The assessment of the degree of public health service quality satisfaction was accomplished by a third-party institution.Results The accomplishment ratio of indicators for public health service quality was 93.2％.This ratio has witnessed a high increase with mental health institutions,occupational disease prevention and control institutions and health education institutions on one hand.On the other,it has dropped with institutions of disease control,chronic disease control and medical institutions within the region.On the whole,this ratio has increased with all the districts to different extents.Despite the overall improvement of public health capabilities citywide,imbalances are found among districts and institutions as well.Conclusion It is imperative to further improve the public health service system and equity while carrying out specific tasks in this respect.

Objective:To develop HMGA1-silencing SMMC-7721 cell and investigate its impacts on apoptosis and cell cycle in tumor cells.Methods:Constructing HMGA1-silencing SMMC-7721 cell through G418 selection of RNAi plasmid transfected cells;surveying the apoptosis,prliferation and cell cycle of the tumor cells by FACS and MTT.Results:Stable HMGA1-silencing cells were obtained successfully.The apoptosis percentage in RNAi group(29.46?3.04%) was significantly higher than that in the negative control (1.96?0.76%) or control (2.04?0.70%)within each P

Objective:To establish a mouse fibroblastic cell line stably transfected with HMGA1 gene,and to use the cell line to investigate the role of HMGA1 in tumor development and progression.Methods:Eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.0-HMGA1 was transfected into NIH3T3 by lipofectamine-mediation.Stable transfectants were selected by G418.The expression of extraneous HMGA1 gene was analyzed by RT-PCR and DNA sequencing.Cell growth was measured through MTT and the cell cycle by FCM.Soft agar colony formation was employed to analyze the ability of anchorage-independent growth.The expression of the immune inhibition factors of VEGF and FasL mRNA was detected by RT-PCR.Results:NIH3T3 cell lines stably expressing HMGA1 gene were successfully established.Comparing with controls,the HMGA1 gene-transfected cells grew faster,acquired the ability of anchorage-independent growth and expressed the immune inhibition factors of VEGF and FasL mRNA.Conclusion:Extraneous expression of HMGA1 gene can induce malignant transformation of NIH3T3 and modulate mRNA expression of immune inhibition factors.HMGA1 gene plays a key role in tumor development,progression and immune escape.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the isolation rate and four consecutive years′(2004-2007) antibiotic-resistance trend of extended-spectrum ?-lactamases(ESBLs) producing Escherichia coli in urinary tract infection and to provide evidence for anti-infection therapy.METHODS The anti-microbial susceptibility test results of E.coli cultured from the midstream urine of outpatients and inpatients of our hospital from 2004 to 2007 were collected.Whonet 5.4 statistical analysis software was used for analysis.RESULTS During four years,no apparent change has been shown about antibiotic resistant rate of ESBLs producing E.coli.The isolation rate of this kind of E.coli increased year by year from 31% to 44% and showed high resistance to third generation cephalosporins and quinolones antibiotics,but was 100% sensitive to imipenem.CONCLUSIONS With the ESBLs-producing E.coli increasing year by year,the antibiotic-resistance rate of E.coli isolated from urinary tract infection is apparently increased and thus screening of antibiotics sensitive to enzyme-producing bacterial is the key point when the empirical therapy especially when the third and fourth generation cephalosporins are ineffective.

Objective To study roles of GRP78 and GRP94 in tumorigenesis and progression of colorectal carcinomas (CRC).Methods Colorectal carcinoma tissues of 124 cases were studied for GRP78 and GRP94 proteins by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting.The correlations among the expression of proteins and clinicopathologic parameters and overall survival of CRC were analyzed using univariate and Cox regression analyses.Results The overexpression of GRP78 and GRP94 was detected in the cytoplasms or plasma membrane of the tumor cells.They were positively correlated with tumor differentiation,staging,lymph node metastasis and remote metastasis.Survival analysis showed that overexpression of both proteins was associated with poor outcome of CRC ( P =0.025,P =0.010,respectively).Cox regression analysis demonstrated that the expression of GRP94 was an independent poor prognostic factor for CRC.Conclusions Up-regulated expression of GRP78 and GRP94 was possibly involved in the pathogenesis,growth,invasion and metastasis of colorectal carcinomas.GRP78 and GRP94could be seen as a marker for the aggressive behavior and poor prognosis in colorectal carcinomas.

Objectives To investigate the causes of short stature in Turner syndrome (TS). Methods 86 patients were di-agnosed with TS by karyotypes from 2004 to 2013. According to the deletion types of the X chromosome short arm, growth hor-mone (GH), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and thyroid function, the TS patients were divided into different groups and com-parison was made among groups. Results Ht SDS in three groups with different extent of the deletion of the X chromosome short arm were (-4.39±1.08), (-3.26±1.25) and (-2.84±0.15) (P<0.05). The proportion of growth hormone deifciency (GHD) in the three groups were 62.5%, 38.9%and 0%(P<0.05). Ht SDS in groups with different degree of IGF-1 level were (-4.37±1.10), (-3.82±1.07) and (-3.25±0.91) (P<0.05). There was no signiifcant difference of Ht SDS between hypothyroidism patients with and without GHD (P>0.05). Conclusions The deletion of X chromosome short arm may cause the short stature in TS. The GH-IGF-1 axis in TS is impaired, but GHD is not related to short stature in TS.
