Most of the particles of the fraction are complexes of DNA and kinetochore proteins and show MTOC activity. The DNA isolated from the fraction can hybridize with DNA in the regions of the primary constrictions of all chromosomes of ascites cells. The kinetochore proteins isolated from the fraction are mainly those with molecular weight of 55 KD and 59 KD. Results suggested that the fraction obtained is a centromere enriched nuclear fraction as indicated in our previous report.展开更多

Methods: By using ELISA method, we detected the serum levels of MBL and MASP-2 in 26 patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), 30 patients with thyroid adenoma (TA) and 26 healthy people, respectively. Results: Serum MBL level was (565.23 ± 76.70) μg/L in PTCs higher than (324.267 ±24.74) μg/L in TAs, and (152.69± 16.95) IJg/L in healthy of controlling group. There was statistical significance between PTC and TA (P 〈 0.05), however there was no difference between TA and healthy (P 〉 0.05). Serum MASP-2 level was (726.153± 78.88) pg/L in PTCs higher than (379.266 ± 30.26) μg/L in TAs, and (203.846 ± 29.09) μg/L in healthy. Serum MASP-2 level was higher in PTCs than TAs, and the difference had statistical significance (P 〈 0.01). But no difference was observed between in TAs and healthy. Conclusion: These findings might reflect inflammatory processes induced by defense mechanisms, in response to the development of the turnout. MBL may also be involved in the elimination of possible tumourigenic pathogens.展开更多
