Objective To investigate the significance of XAGE-1bmRNA expression in the blood specimens of patients with primary liver cancer, cirrhosis and benign liver diseases and in healthy individuals. Methods Venous blood specimens of patients with primary liver cancer (n= 125), cirrhosis (n= 23), benign liver diseases (n= 34) and healthy individuals (n = 41 ) were collected. XAGE-1b mRNA was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. Results The expression levels of XAGE-1b mRNA in patients with primary liver cancer, cirrhosis, benign liver diseases and healthy in dividuals were 3.72 (0.93, 10.2) ×10-5, 0 (0, 0. 56) ×10-5, 0 (0, 0)×10-5, 0 (0, 0) ×10-5, respectively. The XAGE-1b mRNA expression in patients with primary liver cancer was obviously higher than the patients with cirrhosis, benign liver diseases and in healthy individuals. The expression levels for patients with cirrhosis was higher than patients with benign liver diseases and in healthy individuals. The expression levels for patients with benign liver diseases and healthy individuals were similar. With a optimal cut-off value of 8. 385 × 10-7 , the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of XAGE-lb mRNA for diagnosing primary liver cancer were 80. 0%, 89.8%, 90.9% and 77.9% respectively. The positive rates for patients with primary liver cancer and cirrhosis were 80.0% and 30.4% respectively. Conclusion XAGE-lb mRNA can be used as a tumor marker for primary liver cancer. It contributes to the differentiation between primary liver cancer, cirrhosis and benign liver diseases.

Objective To investigate the operative indications for polypoid lesions of gallbladder(PLG) and avoid cholecystectomy for PLG without operation signs.Methods Retrospective analysis of 828 cases of PLG confirmed by pathologic examination was made.Results (1)Cancer should be suspected when a patient is older than 50 years or has a polypoid lesion larger than 1.0 cm.(2)The cholecystectomies for PLG accounted for 2.7%-7.1%of all cholecystectomies in the corresponding period,and cholesterol polyps accounted for 86.11%of all PLG,and carcinoma of gallbladder accounted for 1.92%of all PLG.Conclusion At present most of PLG accepting cholecystectomy are cholesterol polyps,so the high-risk factors of the neoplastic polyps and the operative indications for PLG should be considered deliberately.

Objective:To synthesize Gd labeled probe targeting transporter protein(TSPO) 2-(8-amino-2-(4-chlorophenyl)imidazo[1, 2-a]pyridine-3-yl)- N, N-dipropylacetamide (CB86)-diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA), and investigate its MRI effect in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) model. Methods:CB86-DTPA was prepared by coupling a bifunctional chelating agent, and then chelated with Gd to obtain MRI targeted contrast agent CB86-DTPA-Gd. The cytotoxicity, MR relaxation rate and in vitro stability of CB86-DTPA-Gd were determined. RA model was established with Freund′s adjuvant and the biodistribution study and MRI was performed. The RA lesion and its surrounding normal tissue were used as regions of interest (ROI) to calculate the signal to noise ratio (SNR). Independent-sample t test was used to analyze the data. Results:CB86-DTPA-Gd had excellent biosafety and a good MR relaxation rate ( r1=11.05 mmol·L -1·s -1). The survival rate of RAW264.7 cells and 4T1 cells was still more than 90% at the maximum concentration (20 μmol/L) of Gd 3+. CB86-DTPA-Gd also exhibited good stability in human serum and phosphate buffer saline solution (PBS; pH=7.4). The in vivo biodistribution showed that CB86-DTPA-Gd had better inflammatory targeting efficiency, and the uptake of Gd in the inflamed site of the ankle joint was still (2.33±0.29) percent dose rate per gram of tissue (%ID/g) at 120 min after injection. MicroMRI showed that the inflammation of the right ankle joint displayed significant enhancement after the injection of CB86-DTPA-Gd and Gd-DTPA. The SNR of CB86-DTPA-Gd group was up to 23.21±1.44, and the maximum intensification time was 90 min after injection, and can be significantly inhibited by CB86-DTPA at all time points ( t values: 6.083-12.451, all P<0.05), while the Gd-DTPA group had a strengthening time of 30 min after injection with the SNR of 16.12±1.24. Conclusion:CB86-DTPA-Gd shows good macrophage targeting and good uptake in arthritic reaction sites, and is expected to be a novel MRI molecular probe for peripheral inflammation imaging.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the role of apoptosis stimulating protein 2 of p53 (ASPP2) phosphorylation status in the regulation of ASPP2-p53 apoptotic pathway activity.

METHODSCells were individually transfected with green fluorescent protein (GFP)-encoding vector, constitutively non-phosphorylatable ASPP2 mutant-ASPP2 (Am)-encoding vector, and wild type ASPP2 (Aw)-encoding vector) plasmids, respectively, to make them overexpressing phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated ASPP2 proteins, respectively. Cell apoptosis was induced by oxaliplatin. The apoptosis rate of cells was determined by flow cytometry after staining with FITC-conjugated annexin V and PI. ASPP2 protein level and its phosphorylation status were observed by Western blot. The interaction between ASPP2 and p53 was observed by immunoprecipitation assay.

RESULTSOxaliplatin induced cell apoptosis and caused phosphorylation of ASPP2 at ser92/ser361 in the HCT116 cells. The apoptosis rate of Aw and Am plasmids-transfected cells were (3.8 ± 1.0)% and (3.9 ± 1.2)% respectively, statistically with a non-significant difference (P > 0.05) in comparison with that of the GFP plasmid-transfected cells [(4.0 ± 0.8)%]. After oxaliplatin treatment, the apoptosis rate of Aw plasmid-transfected cells was (46.7 ± 3.9)%, significantly higher than that of the Am and GFP plasmid-transfected cells [(40.1 ± 10.2)% and (37.1 ± 6.9)%, respectively, P < 0.05], however, there was no statistically significant difference (P > 0.05) between Am and GFP plasmid-transfected cells. These results indicate that phosphorylated ASPP2 promoted the oxaliplatin-induced apoptosis of HCT116 cells through a p53-dependent pathway. Phosphorylation status of ASPP2 influenced its binding activity to p53.

CONCLUSIONPhosphorylation status of ASPP2 modulates p53 apoptotic function in oxaliplatin-induced apoptosis of colorectal cancer HCT116 cells.

Objective: To analyze the genetic diversity of Aedes albopictus populations in the coastal areas of southern China by using the microsatellite markers to provide a basis for the control of vectors. Methods: Genetic diversity and clustering analysis of Aedes albopictus populations were studied in the 7 microsatellite loci, in Hangzhou, Ningbo and Yiwu of Zhejiang province, Longyan of Fujian province, Guangzhou of Guangdong province, Nanning of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region and Haikou of Hainan province. Results: Numbers of different alleles (5.429-7.571), effective alleles (2.897-3.632), allele richness (5.236-7.170) and expected heterozygosity (0.538- 0.637) were detected from each of the Aedes albopictus population by using 7 microsatellite markers. The inbreeding coefficients appeared as 0.008-0.332, with heterozygote deficiency, in these populations. Fixation index of the whole populations was 0.058, suggesting that the genetic variation among the 7 populations was 5.8%. Data from the Neighbor-Joining clustering analysis showed that populations from Hangzhou and Yiwu belonged to one branch while Longyan and Guangzhou populations constituted another branch. Aedes albopictus populations of Nanning and Haikou showed great genetic variation but formed a single branch. Bayesian analysis on Aedes albopictus populations showed that the possible number of clusters was 3. Conclusions Based on 7 microsatellite loci, relatively high genetic diversity and medium level of genetic differentiation that increasing with the geographical distances, were found in these Aedes albopictus populations, from the coastal areas in southern China.

Objective: To apply DNA barcoding to identifying the rodents in Zhejiang Province. Methods : Rodents were captured from Jiashan,Longyou,Yunhe and Ninghai counties in Zhejiang Province. The DNA was extracted from ears of rodent samples,and was amplified and sequenced with mitochondrial cytochrome C oxidase subunit I（COI）genes. The obtained sequences were compared with the related sequences in GenBank,and neighbour-joining evolutionary tree was constructed. Then the results by DNA barcoding and by morphological identification were compared. Results : A total of 22 COI gene samples were amplified. The evolutionary tree constructed by 18 samples was consistent with the morphological identification results and 4 samples were different：Suncus murinus should be Crocidura lasiura,infant rats of Rattus losea and Rattus tanezumi was re-identified as Rattus rattus,infant rats of Microtus fortis（sample number：NH-1）needs further identification. Conclusion DNA barcoding can effectively correct the errors of morphological identification,thus combining the two methods could improve the accuracy of rodent identification.
