The kinetics and thermodynamics of the adsorption of Th(IV) on the kaolin were studied by using batch method. In addition, the experimental data were studied by dynamic and thermodynamic models. The results showed that the adsorption capacity of the adsorbent increased with increasing temperature and solid liquid ratio, but decreased with increasing initial Th(IV) ion concentration, and the best fit was obtained for the pseudo-second-order kinetics model. The calculated activation energy for adsorption was about 45 kJ/mol, which indicated the adsorption process to be chemisorption. The adsorption isotherm data could be well described by the Langmuir as well as Dubinin–Radushkevich model. The mean free energy (E) of adsorption was calculated to be about 15 kJ/mol. The thermodynamic data calculated showed that the adsorption was spontaneous and enhanced at higher temperature. Considering kinetics and equilibrium studies, the adsorption on the sites was the rate-limiting step and that adsorption was mainly a chemisorption process through cation exchange.
Intercalated and exfoliated montmorillonite/amidoximated polyacrylonitrile (IAPAN/Mont and EAPAN/Mont) were prepared by using in situ polymerization technique. Intercalated Mont/APAN was obtained through polymerization with organ-montmorillonite and acrylonitrile. However, it became exfoliated when using Na-montmorillonite as a reactant. XRD, FT-IR, and CHN analysis were performed and the results showed the successful synthesis of the two materials. Adsorption of uranyl by using the new prepared materials was also conducted. The results showed that excellent adsorption capacity of 634mg/g and 543mg/g at 27°C using IAPAN/Mont and EAPAN/Mont respectively, were obtained.
Objective To investigate the molecular mechanism of vascular endothelial growth factor ( VEGF) expression in bronchial epithelial cells (Beas-2B)induced by particulate matter 2.5(PM2.5).Methods PM2.5 powder was dis-solved in DMEM medium and diluted into five concentrations , 0,12.5,25,50 and 100μg/ml, respectively.The double an-tibiotics ( streptomycin and penicillin ) and FBS were added into the solution to a 2% final concentration of serum system after being treated by ultrasound for 30 minutes.The cultured Beas-2B cells were then treated with different doses of PM2.5.Subsequently, nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB) transactivity and the transcriptional activation of vegf gene promot-er were tested by dual-luciferase reporter gene analysis system while phosphorylation of p 65 , expression levels of IκBαand VEGF were detected by Western blotting .Results PM2.5 induced up-regulation of VEGF expression in Beas-2B cells in a dose-dependent manner , accompanied by NF-κB transactivation at the highest level under 100 μg/ml of PM2.5 treatment. Moreover, PM2.5 induced degradation of the repressor protein IκBαand increase in the phosphorylation level of p 65 sub-unit in Beas-2B cells.Knockdown of NF-κB p65 expression significantly inhibited vegf gene promoter transcriptional activa-tion as well as VEGF protein expression in Beas-2B cells induced by PM2.5.Conclusion PM2.5 induces VEGF expres-sion via activation of NF-κB pathway in bronchial epithelial cells .

[Objective] To detect the expression of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and vascular endothelial growth factor- D (VEGF-D) in the endometrial carcinoma, and to study their correlation. [Methods] The expressions of FAK, VEGF-D in 53 specimens from endometrial carcinoma and 20 normal endometria specimens, were investigated by immunohistochemistry PV6000 method respectively. [Results] ① The positive rates of FAK, VEGF-D were 84.9% and 69.8% in endometrial carci- noma. However, in normal endometria were 15% and 20% respectively. The difference was significant (P﹤0.05). ② The posi- tive expression rates of FAK and VEGF-D in lymph node metastasis group (36 / 38, 32 / 38) were much higher than in no lymph node metastasis group (9 / 15, 5 / 15)(P﹤0.05). Moreover, the positive expression rate of FAK in the endometrial carci- noma had no correlation with age, histological grade (P﹥0.05), but was significantly related to depth of invasion and tumor clinical stage (P﹤0.05). The positive expression rate of VEGF-D in the endometrial carcinoma had no correlation with age, histological grade, depth of invasion (P﹥0.05), but was significantly related to tumor clinical stage (P﹤0.05). ③ The ex- pression of FAK had a positive correlation with expression of VEGF-D (P﹤0.01). [Conclusion] FAK and VEGF-D play a key role in the invasion and metastasis of endometrial carcinoma and might prognosticate invasion and metastasis.
Objective To analyze the relationship between expression of vascular endothelial growth factor D (VEGF-D) and the microlymphatic density (MLD) and lymph node metastasis in endometrial carcinoma.Methods Immunohistochemical method was used to detect VEGF-D and MLD in 53 cases of endometrial carcinoma and 20 cases of normal endometria. Lymphatic vessels were marked by D2-40 and the microlymphatic density (MLD) was counted by Masakazu’s method.Results (1) The positive expression rate of VEGF-D and MLD in the endometrial carcinoma tissue (39/53,23.54±7.84) were much higher than that in normal endometria tissue (5/20,10.48±1.62) (P0.05); the positive expression rate of VEGF-D and MLD in lymph-node-positive group (33/38,32.05±3.27) were much higher than that in lymph-node-negative group (6/15,20.23±4.57) (P0.05); the positive expression rate of VEGF-D in endometrial carcinoma had no correlation with age, differentiation and depth of invasion (P0.05 respectively), but was significantly related to clinical stage (P0.05). (2) The positive expression of VEGF-D had correlation with MLD (rs=0.398, P0.05). The MLD of the positive group of the VEGF-D (31.17±2.82) was higher than in the negative group (16.75±3.63)(P0.05). Conclusion The positive expression of VEGF-D in endometrial carcinoma has significantly correlation with MLD and it may induce lymphangiogenesis and promote the lymph node metastasis of endometrial carcinoma. The VEGF-D may be used as a valuable index in evaluating diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of endometrial carcinoma.
Objective To establish a soluble expression of recombinant survivin in E. coli, and evaluate the role of anti-survivin in tumor diagnosis. Methods The recombinant survivin was screened by ampicillin resistance, identified by PCR and double digestion of endonucleases. The sequenced DNA of survivin was analyzed by BLAST. The survivin/Trx fusion protein expressed in E.coli BL21 (DE3) was induced with IPTG, identified by Western blot and purified with Ni-NTA agarose respectively. The anti-survivin antibodies in serum were detected with an indirect ELISA. By the methods above, 144 serum samples from cancer patients and 300 serum samples from normal subjects were analyzed. Meanwhile, the joint detection of anti-survivin, AFP, CEA, CA199, CA125 in blood sera from cancer patients was detected. Results After PCR and double digestion with endonucleases, the survivin gene was inserted into the prokaryotic expression vector PET 32a(+). After DNA sequencing, the constructed expression plasmid was transformed into competent cells E.coli BL21(DE3). Western blot identified that the recombinant survivin/Trx fusion protein was specific against survivin antibody. The purity of the protein was over 96% after purified by Ni-NTA agarose. Anti-survivin was expressed in the sera of different cancer patients, but the positive rate varied. Conclusion Prokaryotic expression plasmid PET 32a(+)/survivin was successfully constructed and highly purified survivin/Trx fusion protein was obtained. The detection results of anti-survivin, AFP, CEA, CA199, CA125 in blood serum show in the diagnosis of tumors, the joint detection can overcome the shortfall of each gene and enhance the diagnostic rate.
