Application of iPDMS protein microarray in screening of tumor-associated antigen autoantibodies / 生物工程学报

The rapid screening of tumor markers is a challenging task for early diagnosis of cancer. This study aims to use highly sensitive chemiluminescent protein microarray technology to efficiently screen a variety of low abundance tumor related markers. A new material, termed integrated polydimethylsiloxane modified silica gel (iPDMS), was obtained by adding a surface polymerization initiator with olefin end to the conventional polydimethylsiloxane, and fixing into the three-dimensional structure of polydimethylsiloxane by thermal crosslinking through silicon hydrogen bonding. In order to make the iPDMS material resistant to non-specific protein adsorption, a poly(OEGMA) polymer brush was synthesized by surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization at the active initiation site. Finally, 20 tumor-related antigens were printed into the specific areas of the microarray by high-throughput spray printing technology, and assembled into 48-well detection microtiterplates of the iPDMS microarray. It was found the VEGFR and VEGF121 autoantibodies that obtained from 8 common tumors (breast cancer, lung cancer, colon cancer, gastric cancer, liver cancer, leukemia, lymphoma and ovarian cancer) can be used as potential tumor markers. The chemiluminescence labeled iPDMS protein microarray can be used for the screening of tumor autoantibodies at early stage.

Dynamic hip screw combined with reduction fixation of lesser trochanter prevents hip coxa vara after intertrochanteric fractures：a meta-analysis / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND:More and more elderly patients have hip fractures because of diverse reasons, and most of the fractures are unstable fractures combined with the displacement of the lesser trochanter. At present, there are stil many reports about using dynamic hip screw to repair unstable intertrochanteric fractures, and the effect is obvious. However, there are stil great controversies regarding whether lesser trochanter fixation is performed during the repair process. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect of using dynamic hip screw combined with the lesser trochanter fixation to repair intertrochanteric fractures and the occurrence of hip coxa vara after repair through a meta-analysis. METHODS:The PubMed, EMCC, CBM, CNKI, VIP and Wanfang databases were retrieved by computer for randomized controled trials on whether lesser trochanter reduction fixation was performed during the process of dynamic hip screw internal fixation for repair of intertrochanteric fractures. The quality of the included studies was evaluated according to the pre-designated inclusion and exclusion criteria. The available data were extracted and analyzed using the RevMan5.2 software. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 10 randomized controled trials involving 604 patients were included. Among them, 298 cases were assigned to the dynamic hip screw combined with lesser trochanter fixation group, and 306 cases to the lesser trochanter unfixed group. The meta-analysis results indicated that hip coxa vara, other postoperative complications, the excelent and good rate of efficacy in the dynamic hip screw combined with lesser trochanter fixation group were al superior to those in the lesser trochanter unfixed group (alP < 0.000 1), and for hip coxa vara, the parameters were odds ratio=0.17, 95% confidence interval (0.07, 0.41),Z=3.99,P< 0.000 1. The operation time and the amount of blood loss in the lesser trochanter unfixed group were superior to those in the dynamic hip screw combined with lesser trochanter fixation group (alP < 0.000 1). These results suggest that the lesser trochanter unfixed therapy has the advantages of relatively simple operation, shorter operative time and less blood loss during the process of dynamic hip screw internal fixation for repair of unstable intertrochanteric fractures. However, the excelent and good rates of efficacy, hip coxa vara and other postoperative complications were superior in patients with intertrochanteric fracture above the Tronzo-Evans III type who received dynamic hip screw combined with lesser trochanter fixation to those who received lesser trochanter unfixed therapy. The results indicate that dynamic hip screw combined with lesser trochanter fixation for repair of intertrochanteric fracture is beneficial to prevent hip coxa vara and other complications.

Detection of platelet antibody by surface plasmon resonance technique and its preliminary application / 重庆医学

Objective To study the platelet antibody screening and crossing match by surface plasmon resonance(SPR) ,and to find a new way for platelet compatibility testing .Methods The corresponding universal platelet antigen was fixed on the SPR chip surface by the amino coupling method .Platelet antibody positive and negative control serum were analysed by SPR micro-ar-ray ,the stability ,sensitivity and specificity of this technique were discussed ,and compared with MAIPA assay .Finally we used the SPR technology to cross match for ten cases of the platelet antibody positive patients before infusion ,and to evaluate the effect of platelet infusion .Results For the SPR technology ,the stability ,sensitivity and specificity of platelet antibody detection were all better ,106 cases of the repeated platelet transfusion samples were tested by SPR assay and MAIPA method ,there was no signifi-cant difference between them(chi-square=0 .333 ,P>0 .05) ,the total consistency was 97 .2% .The 10 cases of platelet antibody positive patients were crossed match before platelet transfusion by SPR technology ,the good results of 8 cases of them were found by the clinical tracking evaluation ,1 h CCI>7 .5 ,24 h CCI>4 .5 .Conclusion SPR technology for screening platelet antibody mat-ches with MAIPA method in basic quality ,but SPR assay is simple ,rapid ,reliable and intuitive ,label free ,which can satisfy the re-quirements for clinical rapid detection of platelet antibody screening and crossing match .
