Cancer Research and Clinic 2009;21(3):207-211
With the changes of lifestyle, the incidence of colorectal cancer is increasing year by year.Though the surgical techniques and adjuvant therapy means are continuously improving, the overall prognosis of patients is still poor. Micrometastasis of colorectal cancer is the main reason leading to recurrence and metastasis. Timely detection of micrometastasis is meaningful to accurately determine the condition, formulate reasonable treatment and improve survival time. With the development of medical detection and sophisticated means, the micrometastasis of coloroctal cancer detection has become the research hot spots. In this paper, the current status of micrometastasis of colorectal cancer detection methods, detection means and choice of marker are introduced.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of survivin and CD44v6 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and their correlation. Methods SP immunohistochemical technique was used to detect the expression of survivin and CD44V6 protein in 53 cases of NSCLC and 13 cases of para-eaneer nor-mal tissues. Results The positive rate of survivin and CD44v6 in NSCLC was 60. 38% and 69. 81% respec-tively,which was higher than that of normal pulmonary tissues adjacent to carcinoma(P <0. 01). The expres-sion of survivin and CD44v6 in NSCLC was related to lymph node metastasis (P < 0. 05), but not to patients' age and gender(P>0.05). The expression of survivin was related to TNM stages and cell differentiation (P <0. 05) ,but not to histology type(P >0. 05). The expression of CD44v6 in squamous carcinoma was significantly higher than that of adenocareinoma (P <0. 05),but the expression of CD44v6 was not related to TNM stages and cell differentiation (P >0. 05). There was no correlation between the expression of survivin and C1)44v6 (r = -0. 058, P >0. 05). Conclusion Survivin might be used to evaluate NSCLC development;CD44v6 might be used for the differential diagnosis of squamous carcinoma in NSCLC;both of them might be helpful to predict the metastasis of NSCLC. They might be two independent events in the process of NSCLC genesis and develop-ment.

Objective To observe the changes in NO content and NOS activity of serum and the testis in Wistar rats with type I diabetes mellitus. Methods 63 rats were randomly divided into control group(C) and diabetes group(D). Diabetes was induced by intraperitoneal injection of Alloxan. Rats with diabetes were observed for 1 week(D 1), 2 weeks(D 2), 3 weeks(D 3), 4 weeks(D 4), 5 weeks(D 5), 6 weeks(D 6), 7 weeks(D 7) and 8 weeks(D 8), respectively, and they were sacrificed at the end of each observation period. Serum was obtained and testis homogenates were prepared, and the levels of NO content and NOS activity of them were determined respectively. Results Compared diabetes group with control group, NO contents and NOS activity of serum from diabetic rats were higher, then NOS activity began to decline to approach the control level. In the testis homogenates, NO content dropped slightly after injection of Alloxan, while NOS activity showed no significant change. Thereafter, both NO content and NOS activity of testis homogenates were increased. Conclusion There are changes in NO content and NOS activity of serum and testis of rats after diabetes are induced with Alloxan.

Objective To investigate the vicissitude of infection pathogens and their change in resistance to antibiotics in our hospital in the past 10 years, and to offer scientific information for clinical anti-infection treatment. Methods The data of pathogens identified and susceptibility test with VITEK system as well as K-B methods from 1995 to 2002 were analyzed. Results Gram negative bacteria was the predominance bacteria in recent 5 years, accounting for 60.7%-70.2% of all pathogens, with Pseudomonas aeruginosa ranked first, followed by Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Serratia sp, Enterobacter sp and Acinetobacter sp. The ratio of Acinetobacter sp seemed to be increased in 1998, and it kept a high level in recent years. The isolation rate of Staphylococcus aureus from clinical specimens was the highest among pathogens since 1999, and 42.9%-74.5% of them were Methicillin-resistance S. aureus (MRSA). MRSA was found to be highly resistant to many antibiotics, and there was a tendency of increasing resistance to all kinds of antibiotics in Ps. aeruginosa and Acinetobacter species. Conclusion The significant changes in infectious pathogens in our hospital were an increase in S. aureus and decrease in E.coli in constituent ratios, as well as an elevation of drug resistance level of predominate bacteria. The results suggest that corresponding adjustment should be made in the strategy of infection treatment.

Objective To study the mechanism of resistance to antibiotics and disinfectants of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from clinical specimens in a hospital, and to provide a reference for the use of aminoglycoside antibiotics for the treatment of P. aeruginosa infection as well as disinfection and sterilization. Methods 35 strains of multi-resistant P. aeruginosa were screened from clinical specimens by susceptibility test of agar dilution. Five kinds of aminoglycoside modifying enzyme gene and qzcE?1 gene were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method. Results The positive rates of aminoglycoside modifying enzyme genes, including aac(3)-Ⅱ, aac(6′)-Ⅰ, aac(6′)-Ⅱ, ant(3″)-Ⅰ and ant(2″)-Ⅰ, were 48.6%, 40%, 54.3%, 45.7% and 60%, respectively, and nearly all strains were positive for 2 or more than 2 kinds of above aminoglycoside modifying enzyme gene. The positive rate of qzcE?1 gene was 94.3%. Conclusions There was a close relationship between aminoglycoside modifying enzyme producing P. aeruginosa and its multi-resistance to antibiotics, The results suugested that aminoglycosides should be used cautiously, and it should be based on the result of susceptibility test in the treatment of P. aeruginosa infection, and it was inadvisable to use quaternary ammonium and biguanides disinfectant in disinfection and sterilization.
