Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM-1) is the major antigen of the CD66 cluster of granulocyte differentiation antigens. The present study aimed to assess the biological function of CEACAM-1 on the growth of human colorectal cancer (CRC) cells in vitro. Treatment of cultured CRC HCT-8 cells with CEACAM-1-specific siRNA successfully downregulated CEACAM-1 expression by 61% compared with control cells. The effects of CEACAM-1 downregulation on HCT-8 cell proliferation and apoptosis were then assessed via Cell Counting kit-8 assay and flow cytometry, respectively. The results demonstrated that siRNA-induced CEACAM-1 downregulation significantly inhibited proliferation and increased apoptosis, but had no significant effect on cell cycle progression in HCT-8 cells. Together, these results suggest that CEACAM-1 activity is critical to CRC growth, and thus, CEACAM-1 may be a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of CRC.
Objective: This study was aimed to investigate the relationship between the expression of drebrin (DBN1) gene and resistance in colon cancer to reveal the mechanism of tumor drug resistance and provide a basis for the reversal of this drug resistance in tumor cells. Materials and Methods: The human colon carcinoma cell line HCT-8 was used, and vincristine (VCR)-resistant colon cancer cell line HCT-8/V was established by gradually increasing the concentration of VCR. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers were designed for DBN1 gene. The DBN1 differential expression in colon cancer sensitive and resistant cell lines was detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR. Western blot analysis was used to study DBN1 expression in the resistant cells further. Results: VCR resistance of HCT-8/V cell line was established. Quantitative PCR and Western blot results showed that DBN1 expression in the resistant cell line was significantly lower, the difference being statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Low DBN1 gene expression may be associated with colon cancer cell resistance to VCR.
Background Tuberculosis (TB) is a major public health concern worldwide, and spreads more easily in densely populated areas such as school campuses. Objectives The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of positive TB skin tests among freshmen, i.e. newly-enrolled college students, in Zhengzhou City, China. Methods We reviewed the data of purified protein derivative (PPD) skin tests in 656,212 freshmen in 2004–2013. Results A positive test showed a diameter of swelling ≥ 5 mm. The PPD positive rate was 40.69 %, with a prevalence of 146.29 per 100,000. During the 10-year study period, the rate of students with positive PPD test increased from 34.19 % in 2004 to 40.69 % in 2013. The positive PPD rate was significantly higher in males than in females (41.68 % vs 39.61 %, P<0.0001), and in rural compared with urban areas (42.04 % vs 38.03 %, P<0.0001). Conclusion These findings indicated a high prevalence of PPD positivity among participants during the study period, with an increasing trend. Therefore, this population needs to be targeted by TB prevention and control programs.

The present study aimed to investigate the effects of human brain-derived neurotrophic factor (hBDNF) on the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into neuron-like cells. Lentiviral vectors carrying the hBDNF gene were used to modify the bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. The rat BMSCs were isolated, cultured and identified. A lentivirus bearing hBDNF and enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP) genes was subcultured and used to infect the SD rat BMSCs. The expression of eGFP was observed under a fluorescence microscope to determine the infection rate and growth of the transfected cells. Methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) was used to detect the proliferation rate of cells following transfection. Reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and western blot analysis were used to detect the expression levels of hBDNF. Differentiation of neuron-like cells was induced in vitro and the differentiation rate of the induced neural-like cells was compared with that in control groups and analyzed statistically. In the cultured cells, flow cytometry demonstrated positive expression of cluster of differentiation (CD)90 and CD44, and negative expression of CD34 and CD45. The proliferation rate of the rat BMSCs increased following gene transfection. The expression of hBDNF-eGFP was detected in the BMSCs of the experimental group. The differentiation rate of hBDNF-modified cells into neuron-like cells in the experimental group was higher compared with that in empty plasmid and untransfected negative control groups. The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Thus, BDNF gene transfection is able to promote the differentiation of BMSCs into neuron-like cells. BDNF may play an important role in the differentiation of MSCs into neuron-like cells.
The pathogenic bacterial distributions and resistance states in patients with lower respiratory infections were analyzed to provide evidence for clinical therapy. Bacteria were cultured and separated according to clinical routine. A bacteria measuring medical software was used for statistical analysis. A drug sensitivity test was performed using the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) method. The detection rate of pathogenic bacteria in phlegm samples was 38.61%. Gram-negative bacilli comprised 94.31% of the total bacterial population. The four common bacteria were Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Escherichia colt. The drug sensitivity test showed that the pathogenic bacteria, which can cause pulmonary infections, had different degrees of resistance to many antibiotics. Only cefoperazone/sulbactam achieved better sterilizing effects on the four common Gram-negative bacilli than the other antibiotics. The resistance rates were below 10%. Pathogenic bacterial resistance was poor in upper respiratory infections. Thus, antibiotic use should be standardized to control the variation in bacterial drug resistance.
