Construction and identification of CCDC67 gene lentiviral vector / 中华内分泌外科杂志

Objective To construct a]entiviral expression vector carrying CCDC67 and to obtain CCDC67 efficient and stable expression in mammalian cells.Methods The DNA fragment of CCDC67 coding sequence was amplified by PCR with designed primer from the cDNA library including CCDC67 gene,and then subcloned into GV208 vector with in-fusion technique to generate the lentiviral expression vector,GV208-CCDC67.The positive clones were screened by PCR and the correct CCDC67 was confirmed by sequencing.Recombinant lentiviruses were produced in 293T cells after the cotransfection of GV208-CCDC67,and packaging plasmids of pHelper 1.0 and pHelper 2.0 Green fluorescent protein (GFP)expression in 293T cells was observed to evaluate gene delivery efficiency.CCDC67 protein expression in 293T cells was detected by Western blot.Resuits The lentiviral expression vector carrying CCDC67 was successfully constructed and CCDC67 protein expression was detected in 293T cells.Conclusion The recombinant lentivirus GV208-GFP-CCDC67 is successfully constructed and it lays a foundation for further molecular function study of CCDC67.

Clinical analysis of thyroid and breast multiple primary carcinomas / 中华内分泌外科杂志

Objective To investigate the relationship between thyroid and breast multiple primary carci-nomas.Methods A total of 24 cases of multiple primary tumors of thyroid and breast admitted from Jan .2011 to Jun.2013 in First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were retrospectively analyzed .Results The 24 samples were confirmed as the tumor of thyroid and breast by ultrasonography .The patients underwent operation and adjuvant therapy after fine-needle aspiration biopsy , mammography and other relevant examinations .All the malignancies of thyroid and breast were confirmed by pathology .Among the 24 cases, 19 patients were invasive ductal carcinomas , 2 patients were diagnosed as intraductal carcinomas , 1 patient was confirmed as intraductal papillary carcinoma , 1 case was invasive lobular carcinoma with invasive ductal carcinoma , and 1 case was inva-sive ductal carcinoma with intraductal carcinoma .All the thyroid malignancies were papillary thyroid carcinomas . The results of immunohistochemistry indicated that , among the 24 patients of thyroid and breast multiple primary carcinomas , 11 cases were ER (+) in both thyroid cancers and breast cancers , moreover , 8 cases were ER (-) in both thyroid cancers and breast cancers .The difference between the expression of ER in the tumors of thyroid and breast had no statistical significance (P>0.05).Conclusions Ultrasonography is a simple and effective im-aging method that can discover the multiple primary tumors of thyroid and breast .For patients of thyroid cancer , breast cancer should be excluded routinely .The thyroid should also be examined simultaneously in breast cancer patients.Once the possibility of one gland tumor is discovered , we should pay more attention to the other gland . Particularly, the other gland should be examined carefully for patients with ER (+).

Loss of fragile histidine triad gene expression in papillary thyroid carcinoma / 中华内分泌外科杂志

Objective To study fragile histidine triad gene(FHIT) gene mRNA expression in 60 samples of papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC) and matched adjacent non-concerous tissues (NCE),and to explore the role of FHIT gene in the development in PTC.Methods Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) was used to detect FHIT gene mRNA expression in 60 samples of PTC and matched NCE.Results In PTC tissues,the positive rate of FHIT gene mRNA expression was 45.0％ (27/60),lower than that in NCE tissues (100.0％,60/60).FHIT gene mRNA expression was correlated with pathology stage,TNM stage and lymph node metastasis (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion FHIT loss and transcript abnormality might play important roles in proliferation and metastasis of PTC,and might be a useful marker for evaluating the biological behavior of PTC.

Clinical analysis of transdermal fentanyl patches for pain management in the terminal cancer patients with abnormal hepatic and renal function and ascites / 肿瘤研究与临床

Objective To investigate the clinical efficiency,safety,adverse reactions and healthrelated life quality of transdermal fentanyl patches for pain management in terminal cancer patients with hepatic and renal dysfunction and ascites.Methods 98 terminal cancer patients with moderate to serve pain combined with abnormal hepatic and renal dysfunction were randomly divided into two groups.Group Ⅰ (n=56)received transdermal fentany patches.Group Ⅱ,the control group (n=42),received morphine controlledrelease tablets.Terms of pain intensity,function of renal and liver,adverse reactions and heath-related quality of life were assessed before and after treatment.Results Patients were satisfied with their pain management in both groups,and no significant difference in pain release was observed between the groups (x2 =0.01,0.07,0.01,0.04,P ＞ 0.05).The incidences of constipation and dysuresia were significantly less in the group Ⅰ compared with that of the group Ⅱ (x2 =7.32,3.96,P ＜ 0.05).The incidences of hypersomnia,dizzy,nausea and vomiting were similar betwecn the two groups (x2 =0.12,0.54,0.54,0.02,P ＞ 0.05).Most of the adverse reactions would relieve or disappear after symptomatic treatment.Values of BUN,CR,ALT,AST were similar before and after treatment in group Ⅰ (t =1.43,1.67,0.91,0.11,P＞ 0.05).However,in group Ⅱ,these values were significantly increased after treatment (t =17.59,49.17,42.12,36.23,P ＜ 0.05).The heathrelated life quality (appetite,spirit,somnus,fatigue,daily life and countenance) were significantly improved after treatment in both groups (the group Ⅰ t =3.37,4.40,2.07,5.66,4.48,P ＜ 0.05; the group Ⅱ t =2.03,2.27,3.59,4.16,2.79,P ＜ 0.05),the spirit group Ⅰ improved more obviously compared with group Ⅱ (t =2.93,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Transdermal fentanyl patches provides equal pain relief compared with Morphine controlled-release tablets in the terminal cancer patients with abnormal hepatic and renal function and ascites.Transdermal fentanyl patches significantly improve health-related quality with less hepatic and renal function influence and low incidence of adverse reaction.It should be recommended in the treatment terminal cancer patients with moderate to serve pain combined with abnormal hepatic and renal function and ascites.

Determination of 39 Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers in Coastal Sediments by Ultrasonic Extraction Coupled with Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry / 分析化学

A method was developed for the determination of 39 polybrominated diphenyl ethers(PBDEs) from mono- to hepta-brominated in coastal sediment by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. The sample was extracted with a solution of dichloromethane: n-hexane( 1:1,V/V) ,followed by ultrasonic extraction for 60 min at 25℃. The clean-up step was optimized using silica gel and alumina. The detection limit of the method was in the range of 0.003 - 0.10μg/kg. The results indicate that the average recovery of the internal standard was from 66.2% to 118. 6%. The relative standard deviation RSD( % ) was from 0. 8 % to 18. 2%. The method for the detection of 39 PBDE congeners in coastal sediment was sensitive,high reproducible with satisfactory recoveries.
