ABSTRACT
Objective To review the HPV infection status of the females in Shantou in the past years.Methods 3 664 speci-mens of cervical exfoliated cells of the female patients with gynecological disease from 2013 to 2014 were selected to ampli-fied HPV gene and conducted genetypes detection.The infection rate and various subtypes of HPV were analyzed.All these patients were divided into 5 groups according to their ages and the infection status of each group were also discussed.Results 805 patients were infected with HPV (22%,805/3 664).The single infection type and the mixed infection type were both visible,HPV-16 was the most common single infection type,followed by subtypes HPV-52,43,58 and 56.HPV16+52 was the most common mixed infection type,followed by HPV16+33 and HPV43+52.The infection rates of the each group were differences (χ2 =27.08,P 25),No.2 (25 ~ 34)and No.5 group (< 55)were the high-risk groups of HPV infection.Conclusion The main genotypes of these women whose infection with HPV were HPV-16,52,43,58 and 56 in Shantou region,respectively.The females aged less than 35 years old and more than 55 years old both had high-risk for HPV infection.It has important significance to developed the vaccines which can efficiently prevent HPV-16,52,43,58,56 and reduce the cervical cancer incidence.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the levels of leptin(LEP) and soluble leptin receptor (sOB‐R) in breast cancer patients′ser‐um ,and to discuss the relationship between LEP ,sOB‐R ,free leptin index(FLI) and the patients′clinical pathologic features .Meth‐ods 70 serum specimens of breast cancer patients who confirmed by pathological diagnosis were collected before the surgery ,the serum of benign breast disease group(n=50) and normal group(n=50) were also collected as control .The levels of LEP and sOB‐Rinserumweredetected,andtheresultafterbodymassindex(BMI)correctionwereanalyzed.Finally,therelationshipbetweenthe expression of LEP ,sOB‐R and clinical pathologic features were analyzed .Results The serum level of LEP in breast cancer group was highly increased than the other two groups (P0 .05) .The level of LEP in the postmenopausal breast cancer patients were highly increased than menopause patients (P>0 .05) ,and the expression of LEP in cancer group were signifi‐cant higher than two control groups by both postmenopausal and menopause (P>0 .05) .The result suggested the serum level of LEP and FLI are associated with pTNM stages and lymph node metastases (P<0 .05) ,and elevated level of LEP in postmenopausal patients had differences in pTNM stages and lymph node metastases (P< 0 .05) .Conclusion The serum LEP level and the FLI may be potential indicators to evaluate the prognosis of the patient with breast cancer .The serum LEP may promoted the process of the postmenopausal patients of breast cancer .
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the association between the level of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)in gastric cancer patients’ serum or the relative expression of LDH in their tissues and the patients’prognosis.Methods 60 specimens of gastric canc-er patients who confirmed by pathological diagnosis were collected from 2012 to 2013,include the serum specimens and tis-sue specimens.Their serum level of LDH were detected,and the relative expressions level of LDH in the sample of normal tissues,gastric cancer tissues and metastatic lymph nodes were quantify by real-time fluorescence quantitative reverse tran-scription-PCR (Realtime-PCR).Finally,the relationship between the expression of LDH and clinical pathologic features were analyzed by independent t-test or anova statistics.Results The serum level of LDH was highly increased than control group (340.89±10.67 IU/ml,t=24.7,P<0.01);the relative gene expression of LDH in normal tissue,human gastric cancer and metastatic lymph node were 1.0,3.39 and 2.35.The result suggests the serum level of LDH were associated with pTNM stage and lymph node metastases (t=5.2,4.8,P<0.01).The relative gene expression of LDH in gastric canc-er tissues were associated with tumor sizes,pTNM stage and lymph node metastases (t=18.2,15.3,P<0.01 and F=7.2, P<0.01).Conclusion The serum LDH level and the expression of LDH in cancer tissue were significantly increased,and their expression were correlated with the patient’s prognosis.The serum level of LDH and the expression of LDH in gastric cancer tissue may be potential indicator to evaluated the prognosis of the patient with gastric cancer.
