Objective To investigate the influence of epigallocatechin gallate ( EGCG)on reactive oxygen species (ROS) in mouse podocytes exposed to high glucose. Methods Mouse podocytes cultured in high glucose were exposed to different concentrations of EGCG (0.2, 10, 100 μmol/L) or α-tocopherol (0.2 μmol/L) for 6, 12, 24 hours. The viability of podocytes was detected by MTT. The intracellular formation of ROS was detected by confocal microscopy with fluorescent probe CM-H2DCFDA and was measured by fluorescence microscopy. RT-PCR was used to examine the expression of p22phox, p47phox and p67phox mRNA in cultured podocytes exposed to different concentrations of EGCG. Results Intracellular ROS generation was significantly higher in high glucose than that in control conditions (P<0.01). EGCG could significantly inhibit ROS induced by high glucose significantly (P<0.01). EGCG (100 μmol/L) led to an inhibition of the increased production of NADPH oxidase components of p22phox and p67phox mRNA in high glucose (P<0.05). The expression of p47phox mRNA in high glucose was inhibited by EGCG(0.2 μmol/L) and ot-tocopherol(0.2 μmol/L) (P<0.05). Conclusion EGCG can protect cultured mouse podocytes from injury of high glucose by inhibiting ROS formation.

For microbial production of lycopene, the lycopene synthetic genes from Pantoea agglomerans were integrated into Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain BY4742, to obtain strain ZD-L-000 for production of 0.17 mg · L(-1) lycopene. Improving supplies of isoprenoid precursors was then investigated for increasing lycopene production. Four key genes were chosen to be overexpressed, inclu- ding truncated 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase gene (tHMG1), which is the major rate-limiting enzyme in the mevalonate (MVA) pathway, a mutated global regulatory factor gene (upc2.1), a fusion gene of FPP synthase (ERG20) and endogenous GGPP synthase (BTS1), which is a key enzyme in the diterpenoid synthetic pathway, and GGPP synthase gene (SaGGPS) from Sulfolobus acidocaldarius. Over-expression of upc2.1 could not improve lycopene production, while over-expression of tHMGI , BTS1-ERG20 and SaGGPS genes led to 2-, 16. 9- and20. 5-fold increase of lycopene production, respectively. In addition, three effective genes, tHMG1, BTS1-ERG20 and SaGGPS, were integrated into rDNA sites of ZD-L-000, resulting in strain ZD-L-201 for production of 13.23 mg · L(-1) lycopene, which was 77-fold higher than that of the parent strain. Finally, two-phase extractive fermentation was performed. The titer of lycopene increased 10-fold to 135.21 mg · L(-1). The engineered yeast strains obtained in this work provided the basis for fermentative production of lycopene.

To explore influence of platelet donation on donor's megakaryocytopoiesis, platelet counts and plasma concentrations of thrombopoietin (TPO), interleukin-3 (IL-3), IL-6 and nitric oxide (NO) were determined in 42 frequent platelet donors (undergoing plateletpheresis more than once a month for 24 months and their mean platelet yield of collection was 2.5 x 10(11)), in 62 limited platelet donors (undergoing plateletpheresis less than once a month for 24 months) after a donation-free period of > 5 weeks and in 40 whole blood donors who never undergoing plateletpheresis after a donation-free period of > 6 months. The results showed that the TPO levels was significantly lower in frequent platelet donors than in limited platelet donors (P < 0.01) and whole blood donors (P < 0.01). There were no significant differences between three groups in platelet counts, IL-3, IL-6 and NO. These findings suggest that the number of megakarocytes significantly increased in frequent platelet donors.

OBJECTIVETo summarize the ultrasonographic characteristics of ovarian carcinosarcoma (OCS).
METHODSTotally 12 patients with OCS have been detected in our department. All patients underwent surgical resection and the OCSs were confirmed pathologically. Ultrasound examination was performed before operation. Imaging features were analyzed retrospectively for bilaterality, size, and tumor solidity (cystic or solid). Presence of ascites and other evidence of peritoneal seeding, adjacent organ invasion, and surgical staging were also evaluated.
RESULTSUnilateral OCSs were found in 11 patients and bilateral OCSs in one patient one side was missed by ultrasound). Nine OCSs were solid, and 3 were mixed (solid and cystic). The diameter of the largest dimension was less than 10 cm in 4 cases, 10-20 cm in 7 cases, and larger than 20 cm in one case. Other ultrasonographic findings including peritoneal seeding and direct invasion into the adjacent organs were seen in 8 patients. Surgical stages were International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) classification c and b in one patient each, c in 9 patients, and in one patient.
CONCLUSIONOCSs usually present as large, hypoechoic, solid, and aggressive tumors, combined with frequent peritoneal seeding and adjacent organ invasion.
