溃疡性结肠炎薄白苔和黄腻苔患者的肠道菌群特征分析

  目的：通过分析溃疡性结肠炎(UC)薄白苔、黄腻苔患者的肠道菌群特征,探讨UC患者舌苔与肠道菌群之间的关系。  方法：选取UC薄白苔患者、UC黄腻苔患者、健康对照者各35例,分别设为UC薄白苔组、UC黄腻苔组、健康对照组。收集粪便标本,采用16S rDNA基因测序分析技术和生物信息学方法分析比较各组肠道菌群的多样性和丰度。  结果：①与健康对照组比较,UC薄白苔、黄腻苔组患者肠道菌群物种的丰富度和多样性降低(P＜0.001),肠道菌群物种数量减少；与UC薄白苔组比较,UC黄腻苔组患者肠道菌群丰富度差异无统计学意义(P＞0.05),但肠道菌群物种数量减少。②门水平差异分析:与健康对照组比较,UC薄白苔、黄腻苔组患者肠道菌群中厚壁菌门(Firmicutes)减少(P＜0.05)；与UC薄白苔组比较,UC黄腻苔组患者肠道菌群中蓝细菌门(Cyanobacteria)增多(P＜0.05)。③属水平差异分析:与健康对照组比较,UC薄白苔组患者肠道菌群中埃希氏-志贺氏菌属(Escherichia-Shigella)、链球菌属(Streptococcus)等增多(P＜0.05),罕见小球菌属(Subdoligranulum)、多尔氏菌属(Dorea)、瘤胃球菌属(Ruminococcus)、罗氏菌属(Roseburia)等减少(P＜0.05)；UC黄腻苔组患者肠道菌群中埃希氏-志贺氏菌属(Escherichia-Shigella)、乳杆菌属(Lactobacillus)等增多(P＜0.05),多尔氏菌属(Dorea)、罕见小球菌属(Subdoligranulum)、瘤胃球菌属(Ruminococcus)、考拉杆菌属(Phascolarctobacterium)、罗氏菌属(Roseburia)等减少(P＜0.05)。与UC薄白苔组比较,UC黄腻苔组患者肠道菌群链球菌(Streptococcus)增多(P＜0.05),巨球型菌属(Megasphaera)、拟普氏菌属(Alloprevotella)、普氏菌属(Prevotella)、奈瑟氏菌属(Neisseria)等减少(P＜0.05)。④LDA判定(纲、目、科水平):UC薄白苔组患者肠道菌群中普氏菌科(f_Prevotellaceae)、奈瑟氏球菌目(o_Neisseriales)、奈瑟氏球菌科(f_Neisseriaceae)丰度显著多于UC黄腻苔组(LDA＞2.0),UC黄腻苔组患者肠道菌群中杆菌纲(c_Bacilli)、乳杆菌目(o_Lactobacillales)、链球菌科(f_Streptococcaceae)、消化链球菌科(f_Peptostreptococcaceae)丰度显著高于UC薄白苔组(LDA＞2.0)。  结论：UC薄白苔、黄腻苔患者肠道菌群丰富度和多样性均较健康者明显下降；UC薄白苔患者和UC黄腻苔患者在肠道菌群组成和细菌丰度上均存在差异,黄腻苔患者肠道致病性细菌增多而具有潜在保护作用的细菌减少；肠道菌群检测可以为舌诊现代化提供一定的信息。     

HPV检测原发灶不明颈淋巴结转移癌的诊断作用初探(附6例报告)

目的 初步探讨HPV检测在诊断原发灶不明的颈淋巴结转移性鳞癌中的价值。方法 收集复旦大学附属肿瘤医院6例首诊为原发灶不明的颈淋巴结转移性鳞癌,最终确诊为HPV相关口咽鳞癌,分析确诊过程。结果 首诊时6例患者均被确诊为颈淋巴结转移性鳞癌,且p16表达阳性和HPV-16亚型阳性,而EBER表达阴性。经全面检查均未发现明显的原发病灶。随后对其中4例予同侧扁桃体盲检(2例)和切除(2例),病理均证实为扁桃体鳞癌。另2例分别在随访第149天、545天MRI检查发现同侧口咽侧壁和舌根增厚伴强化,经活检分别证实为扁桃体鳞癌、舌根鳞癌。结论 对于原发灶不明的HPV阳性颈淋巴结转移性鳞癌,应高度怀疑原发病灶来源于口咽部位的可能性,特别是扁桃体和舌根部位。

Human papillomavirus and urinary bladder cancer revisited

This review aims to present data on the association between human papillomavirus (HPV) and urinary bladder cancer (BC), especially of the subtype squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Furthermore, the current data on the relation between p16, HPV, and BC are reviewed. PubMed was searched for ‘Humans’ [MESH] AND ‘Papillomaviridae’ [MESH] AND ‘Urinary Bladder Neoplasms’ [MESH], resulting in 157 potential articles. After profound reviewing, 18 articles were included in this review. Only original articles in English were included. A variable number of HPV genotypes in a small number of cases have been investigated in several studies with various methodology. HPV was present in 0–100% of cases depending on inclusion and exclusion criteria. SCC studies are mostly hampered by low number of cases whereas the few studies with a high number show a slightly higher prevalence of different HPV genotypes compared to pure urothelial carcinoma. Studies on p16 status in HPV positive cases are even more scarcely reported and show conflicting results. Most studies fail to prove clear-cut relevance of HPV in BC irrespectively of histological subtype. Negative p16 staining cannot rule out positive HPV status.     

Combined use of cytology,p16 immunostaining and genotyping for triage of women positive for high-risk human papillomavirus at primary screening

Human papillomavirus (HPV) testing is very sensitive for primary cervical screening but has low specificity. Triage tests that improve specificity but maintain high sensitivity are needed. Women enrolled in the experimental arm of Phase 2 of the New Technologies for Cervical Cancer randomized controlled cervical screening trial were tested for high-risk HPV (hrHPV) and referred to colposcopy if positive. hrHPV-positive women also had HPV genotyping (by polymerase chain reaction with GP5+/GP6+ primers and reverse line blotting), immunostaining for p16 overexpression and cytology. We computed sensitivity, specificity and positive predictive value (PPV) for different combinations of tests and determined potential hierarchical ordering of triage tests. A number of 1,091 HPV-positive women had valid tests for cytology, p16 and genotyping. Ninety-two of them had cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2+ (CIN2+) histology and 40 of them had CIN grade 3+ (CIN3+) histology. The PPV for CIN2+ was >10% in hrHPV-positive women with positive high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (61.3%), positive low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL+) (18.3%) and positive atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (14.8%) cytology, p16 positive (16.7%) and, hierarchically, for infections by HPV33, 16, 35, 59, 31 and 52 (in decreasing order). Referral of women positive for either p16 or LSIL+ cytology had 97.8% sensitivity for CIN2+ and women negative for both of these had a 3-year CIN3+ risk of 0.2%. Similar results were seen for women being either p16 or HPV16/33 positive. hrHPV-positive women who were negative for p16 and cytology (LSIL threshold) had a very low CIN3+ rate in the following 3 years. Recalling them after that interval and referring those positive for either test to immediate colposcopy seem to be an efficient triage strategy. The same applies to p16 and HPV16.     

Antimicrobial activities of novel bipyridine compounds produced by a new strain of Saccharothrix isolated from Saharan soil

The actinobacterium strain ABH26 closely related to Saccharothrix xinjiangensis, isolated from an Algerian Saharan soil sample, exhibited highly antagonist activity against Gram-positive bacteria, yeasts and filamentous fungi. Its ability to produce antimicrobial compounds was investigated using several solid culture media. The highest antimicrobial activity was obtained on Bennett medium. The antibiotics secreted by strain ABH26 on Bennett medium were extracted by methanol and purified by reverse-phase HPLC using a C18 column. The chemical structures of the compounds were determined after spectroscopic (¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, ¹H-¹H COSY and ¹H-¹³C HMBC spectra), and spectrometric (mass spectrum) analyses. Two new cyanogriside antibiotics named cyanogriside I (1) and cyanogriside J (2), were characterized along with three known caerulomycins, caerulomycin A (3), caerulomycin F (4) and caerulomycinonitrile (5). This is the first report of cyanogrisides and caerulomycins production by a member of the Saccharothrix genus. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of these antibiotics were determined against pathogenic microorganisms.
