Objective:To observe the optimal time interval of multiple short-term hyperthermia in tongue squamous carcinoma Cal-27 cells, and investigate the role of Notch signaling pathway in hyperthermia-induced apoptosis of Cal-27 cells.Methods:Cal-27 cells were placed into a 42℃ incubator for 45 min, and the second hyperthermia was performed at 6 h,12 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h later, respectively. Cell proliferation capacity was detected by CCK-8 assay at 0 h, 12 h and 24 h after the end of hyperthermia. After determining the optimal time interval of hyperthermia, multiple cycles of hyperthermia were performed, and the effects of hyperthermia on the proliferation and apoptosis of Cal-27 cells were detected by CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry, respectively. The changes in the expression of Notch1, Jagged1 and hairy and enhancer of split homolog-1 (Hes1) mRNA and proteins were analyzed by real-time reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) and Western blot. All data were expressed as mean±SD. Two-group comparison was performed by one-way ANOVA.Results:Hyperthermia at 42℃ for 45 min every 12 h consistently inhibited the proliferation of Cal-27 cells ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, hyperthermia in the experiment group significantly inhibited the proliferation and induced the apoptosis of Cal-27 cells after 7 cycles of hyperthermia ( P<0.05), and the expression levels of Notch1, Jagged1 and Hes1 mRNA and proteins in the hyperthermia group were significantly down-regulated (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The optimal time interval of hyperthermia to inhibit the proliferation of tongue squamous cells carcinoma Cal-27 cells is 12 h. Hyperthermia might induce the apoptosis of Cal-27 cells by inhibiting the Notch signaling pathway.

OBJECTIVE To invest igate the distribution of pathogenic bacteria and the antibiotic susceptibility of otitis media in plateau areaandto guide clinical drug application rationally. METHODS Middle ear secretions were collected from 218 inpatients and outpatients(220 ears) with otitis media in our department from December 2016 to January 2018 and were performed by isolation and identification of pathogenic bacteriaand drug sensitivity test. RESULTS 1. 152 strains of microbes were isolatedincluding 125 casesof bacterial infection and 8 cases of fungal infection. 2. The gram-positive bacteria in middle ear effusions of chronic suppurative otitis media was higher than those of cholesteatoma, of which Staphylococcus aureuswas the most frequently isolated pathogen. While Pseudomonas aeruginosa was the highest in cholesteatoma. 3. The antibiotic sensitivity of pathogenic bacteria varies from strain to strain. CONCLUSION Staphylococcus aureusand Pseudomonas aeruginosa were the main pathogenic bacteria. Common pathogenic bacteria were resistance to penicillin and levofloxacin, which were commonly used in clinic. Therefore, bacterial culture should be carried out and rational drug use should be guided.
