低浓度5-Fu24-小时持续化疗对BEL-7402肝癌细胞株的细胞周期的影响

目的研究低浓度5-Fu 24-小时持续化疗和高浓度5-Fu短时间化疗对BEL-7402肝癌细胞株的细胞周期的影响：方法用低浓度(1000．0μg/L)的5．Fu对BEL-7402肝癌细胞株进行持续24小时的培养(A组)，用高浓度(50000．0μg/L)的5-Fu对BEL-1 7402肝癌细胞株进行2小时培养(B组)，在培养后的不同时间点用流式细胞技术检测细胞周期的变化。结果A组结果显示：0h、4h、8h、12h、16h、20h和24h的S期细胞的百分数分别为25.23％、32．35％、39．28％、41．05％、46．02％、47．00％及47．14％。B组结果显示：0h、4h、8h、12h、16h、20h和24h的S期细胞的百分数分别为24．68％、68．43％、46．67％、43．67％、35．42％、33．22％及32．96％。结论5-Fu引起的S期细胞周期阻滞不但和浓度相关，也和作用时间相关。低浓度(1000．0μg/L)的5-Fu持续化疗较高浓度(50000．0μg/L)的5-Fu短时间(2小时)化疗更容易引起BEL-7402肝癌细胞株S期阻滞。

Genome-wide scan identified QTLs underlying femoral neck cross-sectional geometry that are novel studied risk factors of osteoporosis.

A genome-wide screen was conducted using a large white sample to identify QTLs for FNCS geometry. We found significant linkage of FNCS parameters to 20q12 and Xq25, plus significant epistatic interactions and sex-specific QTLs influencing FNCS geometry variation. INTRODUCTION: Bone geometry, a highly heritable trait, is a critical component of bone strength that significantly determines osteoporotic fracture risk. Specifically, femoral neck cross-sectional (FNCS) geometry is significantly associated with hip fracture risk as well as genetic factors. However, genetic research in this respect is still in its infancy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: To identify the underlying genomic regions influencing FNCS variables, we performed a remarkably large-scale whole genome linkage scan involving 3998 individuals from 434 pedigrees for four FNCS geometry parameters, namely buckling ratio (BR), cross-sectional area (CSA), cortical thickness (CT), and section modulus (Z). The major statistical approach adopted is the variance component method implemented in SOLAR. RESULTS: Significant linkage evidence (threshold LOD = 3.72 after correction for tests of multiple phenotypes) was found in the regions of 20q12 and Xq25 for CT (LOD = 4.28 and 3.90, respectively). We also identified eight suggestive linkage signals (threshold LOD = 2.31 after correction for multiple tests) for the respective geometry traits. The above findings were supported by principal component linkage analysis. Of them, 20q12 was of particular interest because it was linked to multiple FNCS geometry traits and significantly interacted with five other genomic loci to influence CSA variation. The effects of 20q12 on FNCS geometry were present in both male and female subgroups. Subgroup analysis also revealed the presence of sex-specific quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for FNCS traits in the regions such as 2p14, 3q26, 7q21 and 15q21. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings laid a foundation for further replication and fine-mapping studies as well as for positional and functional candidate gene studies, aiming at eventually finding the causal genetic variants and hidden mechanisms concerning FNCS geometry variation and the associated hip fractures.     

Tumors of the skull base

Recognition of the many benign and malignant tumors that occur in the skull base is now simple, given three-dimensional CT scanning and MRI with enhancement. Recent developments in surgical technique have allowed these tumors to be approached, but only in the past two to three years has radical surgery been possible.     

Gastric ulceration caused by heater probe coagulation

A double-contrast upper gastrointestinal examination on a woman who had undergone endoscopic heater probe therapy one day earlier for multiple arteriovenous malformations revealed shallow, irregular, and linear ulcers at the sites of heater probe coagulation. Multiple shallow ulcers may therefore develop as a direct complication of heater probe therapy. Radiologists should be aware of this complication to avoid diagnostic confusion in these patients.     

High-specificity in-situ hybridization. Methods and application.

We describe a technique of in-situ hybridization using oligonucleotide probes employing the expression of immunoglobulin VH genes as a model. Optimal conditions for hybridization with the 35S-labeled oligonucleotide probes were established with monoclonal B-cell lines that express VH genes of known nucleic acid sequence. The range of sensitivity and specificity achieved with this technique is documented. Under conditions of high stringency, this method can detect the expression of highly related VH hypervariable regions.     

Doppler assessment of the uterine circulation and the clinical behaviour of gestational trophoblastic tumours requiring chemotherapy.

The haemodynamics of the uterine arteries and myometrium were assessed using Doppler ultrasound in forty consecutive patients requiring treatment for invasive mole and choriocarcinoma. The investigations were performed prior to the commencement of chemotherapy and the subjects followed prospectively. The Doppler waveforms from the uterine arteries were analysed using the pulsatility index. It was found that patients with a pulsatility index of 1.1 or less were significantly more likely to develop drug resistance than those with a higher value (P < 0.04). There was no significant association between the pulsatility index and metastatic disease or uterine bleeding. Five out of eight patients who developed drug resistance could have avoided initial inadequate treatment if the Doppler findings were included in the scoring system for selecting chemotherapy for these tumours. It can be concluded that assessment of the uterine arteries using the pulsatility index prior to the treatment of patients with invasive mole and choriocarcinoma is of help in predicting those who will develop drug resistance.

Analysis of pancreas-infiltrating T cells in diabetic NOD mice: fusion with BW5147 yields a high frequency of islet-reactive hybridomas.

Diabetes in NOD mice is an autoimmune disease which is characterized by the infiltration of islets of Langerhans by large numbers of T cells. Some of these infiltrating T cells are clearly islet-cells-specific; however, many or most of these T cells could be attracted nonspecificity into these lesions. To study NOD pancreas-infiltrating T cells, we fused these cells with BW5147 to make T cell hybridomas. Ninety-four pancreas-derived T hybrids were analyzed of which 12 responded specifically to islet cells by secreting IL-2. Only CD3+, CD4+ hybrids responded to islet cells in our assay, and a large proportion of these hybrids were islet-cell reactive. T cell receptor (TCR) V beta element usage was heterogeneous in islet-reactive hybridomas.
