Results: Bone marrow tissues of 20 acute leukemia patients were studied, 11 healthy donors' bone marrows were taken as a control. The expression level of TRF1 protein was significantly higher (P〈0.01) in normal bone marrow ((2.2174±0.462) μg/μl) than that of acute leukemia patients ((0.7544±0.343) μg/μl), But there was no remarkable difference between ALL and ANLL patients ((0.6184±0.285) μg/μl vs (0.8454±0.359) μg/μl, P〉0.05). After chemotherapy, TRFI expression level of patients with complete remission elevated ((0.7724±0.307)/μg/μl vs (1.6834±0,344)μg/μl, P〈0.01 ), but lower than that of normal ((2.2174±0.462)/μg/μl, P〈0.01). There was no significantly difference after chemotherapy ((0.7264±0.411) μg/μl vs (0.895±0.339) μg/μl,p〉0.05). TRF1 expression level of patients with complete remission is higher than that of patients without complete remission ((1,683±0.344)μg/μl vs (0.895±0.339)μg/μl P〈0.01). All samples were determined for telomerase activity. It was confirmed that the activity of telomerase in normal bone marrow was lower than that of acute leukemia patients ((0.125±0.078) μg/μl vs (0.765±0.284)μg/μl, P〈0.01). There was no significant difference of expression level ofTRF I protein between ALL and ANLL patients ((0.897±0.290) μg/μl vs (0.677±0.268) μg/μl, P〉0.05). After chemotherapy, telomerase activity of patients with complete remission decreased ((0.393±0.125) μg/μl), but was still higher than that of normal ((0.125±0.078) μg/μl, P〈0.01). Conclusion: The expression level of TRF1 protein has correlativity to the activity of telomerase (P〈0.001).展开更多

The contamination of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in edible oils has been attracted exten-sive efforts due to its hazard to human health and life. To avoid the digestion of edible oils contaminated by AFB1 the development of rapid and sensitive sensing method for AFB1 is required. Herein, a quantitative, sensitive and rapid method for AFB1 detection in edible oils was proposed by using ultrasensitive time-resolved fluorescent immunosensing (TRFIS) method. This method poses unique advantages from both time-resolved fluorescent sens-ing method and immunochromatographic assay format. The nanospheres were modified with fluorescent europium and then captured the home-made monoclonal antibody against AFB1 (3G1). After optimization, by using a competitive immunosensing manner, this TRFIS method has a detectable linear range of 0.54-20.0 μg/kg with minimum detectable concen-tration of 0.18μg/kg. It can be completed merely within 10 min with recovery from 87.0% to 121.9%. The agreement was observed between the results by TRFIS and high perfor-mance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods. This research provides a promising sens-ing method for sensitive and rapid determining AFB1 in edible oils.展开更多
