ABSTRACT
Objective@#To analyze the etiology and epidemiological characteristics of gastroenteritis virus in foodborne diseases from three cities in Shandong.@*Methods@#From January to December 2017, six sentinel hospitals in Jinan, Yantai and Linyi city of Shandong Province were selected as the research sites. Stool samples of 1 397 diarrhea patients were collected, as well as basic information and clinical symptoms. Duplex quantitative RT-PCR was used to detect Norovirus genogroupⅠ (Nov GⅠ) and genogroupⅡ (Nov GⅡ), Sapovirus (SAV) and Human astrovirus (HAstV), respectively, quantitative RT-PCR was used to detect group A Rotavirus (RVA), and quantitative PCR was used to detect Enteric adenovirus (EAdV). The specific gene of the virus were sequenced and typed. It was compared that the gastroenteritis virus rate in cases with different characteristics and the clinical symptoms difference between the virus positive and negative cases.@*Results@#The median age (P25, P75) was 23 (1, 42) , mainly male, 57.48% with 803 cased and children under 5 years old, 36.36% with 508 cases. The positive rate of gastroenteritis virus was 33.93% (474 cases), and that of Jinan, Linyi and Yantai City were 32.03% (147/459), 41.54% (189/455) and 28.57% (138/483), respectively (P<0.001). Nov GⅡ had the highest positive rate, 16.54% (231 cases), which, mainly GⅡ.P16/GⅡ.2 (48.28%, 56/116), peaked in May (24.75%, 50/202) and June (19.59%, 38/194). In patients of gastroenteritis virus positive, 44.51% (211/474) had vomiting symptoms, higher than that of patients of gastroenteritis virus negative (34.13%, 315/923). The difference was statistically significant (P<0.001).@*Conclusion@#In Shandong Province, the majority of gastroenteritis patients were male and children under 5 years old. Nov GⅡ possessed highest epidemic intensity, and peaked in spring and summer. Viral gastroenteritis had atypical clinical symptoms.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effect of IL-8 on cell proliferation and invasion,and to analyze the correlations between chemokine and epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)signaling pathways in breast carcinoma cells.Methods IL-8 secretion responded to treatment with rhEGF and anti-EGFR and expression of its receptors CXCR1,CXCR2 in MDA-231 cells were measured by ELISA and immunocytochemistry,respectively.Effect of rhIL-8 and neutralizing antibody on cell proliferation and invasion were analyzed by using MTT and matrigel invasion assay.EGFR transactivation stimulated with rhIL-8 and neutralizing an tibody was assessed by Western blot using anti-phosphotyrosine antibody.Results MDA-231 cells released hish level of IL-8 and two receptom of IL-8(CXCR1 and CXCR2)both expressed on cell membrane.Exogenous IL-8 and its neutralizing antibody did not significantly influence the proliferation of breast carcinoma cells,but rhIL-8 stimulated invasive activity in MDA-231 cells and its neutralizing antibody inhibited the in vasive activity(P＜0.05).EGF and anti-EGFR both inhibited the secretion of IL-8 in breast carcinoma cells,and IL-8 had no effect on EGFR phosphorylation,but anti-IL-8 induced transactivation of EGFR after 24h.Conclusion IL-8 contributes to tumor progression in breast carcinoma through its enhancement of in vasive activitv but not act as an autocrine growth factor.The correlation of competitive inhibition rather than cross-talk is found between G protein coupled receptor(GPCR)-mediated IL-8 signaling pathway and EGFR pathway in breast carcinoma.
