Methods: Cultured primary rabbit smooth muscle cell (SMC) infected with AdCMVCD was incubated in 5- flurocytosine-containing medium and assayed with a Coulter Counter on day 2, 6, 10, and 14 for the establish- ment of proliferation curves. In addition, to observe an inhibitory effect on neighboring SMC, only a portion of the SMC population received the cd transgene. Results : The antiproliferative effect of AdCMVCD was dependent on both concentation of virus and concentration of 5-flurocytosine . Transformed cells demonstrated a bystander effect wherein SMC expressing cd gene exerted an antiproliferative effect on neighboring cells that did not express cd gene . Conclusion:Theresult demonstrates the potential utility of adenovirus-mediated cd gene transfer for the treatment of restenosis after balloon injury.展开更多

Results： The retention rate of intron 9 in CD44 gene transcripts were 76.7% in cervical cancer tissue, 89,8% in corresponding exfoliated cells, 70.8% in CIN tissue, and 60.0% in CIN exfoliated cells, but undetected in neither cervicitis tissue nor exfoliated cells. The relative quantity of intron 9 in CD44 gene transcripts was 1.10 ± 0.12 in cervical cancer tissue, 1.21 ± 0.11 in CIN tissue, 1.11 ± 0.19 in cervical cancer exfoliated cells, 1.17 ± 0.12 in CIN exfoliated cells respectively, but undetected in neither cervicitis tissue nor exfoliated cells. The retention rate and relative content of intron 9 in CD44 gene transcripts in cervical cancer and CIN tissue and their exfoliated cells were statistically higher than that in cervicitis and their exfoliated cells （P〈0.005）. There was statistic difference comparing the retention rate of intron 9 in CD44 gene mRNA transcripts （70.8%） with positive rate in cytology （40.0%） in cervical cancer （x^2=5.78, P〈0.05）, but no statistic difference between the retention rate of intron 9 in CD44 gene transcripts （60.0%） with positive rate in cytology （36.4%） in CIN （x^2=0.585, P〉0.05）. Conclusion： Detecting the retention of intron 9 in CD44 mRNA in cervical exfoliated cells was more sensitivity than traditional cytology exam for diagnosing cervical cancer, and the techniques was worth clinical application.展开更多
