Cisplatin has severe ototoxicity, and can induce cochlear cell apoptosis. This study assumed that cisplatin activated calpain expression in apoptotic cochlear cells. A mouse model of cisplatin-induced ototoxicity was established by intraperitoneal injection with cisplatin (2.5, 3.5, 4.5, 5.5 mg/kg). Immunofluorescence staining, image analysis and western blotting were used to detect the expression of calpain 1 and calpain 2 in the mouse cochlea. At the same time, the auditory brainstem response was measured to observe the change in hearing. Results revealed that after intraperitoneal injection with cisplatin for 5 days, the auditory brainstem response threshold shifts increased in mice. Calpain 1 and calpain 2 expression significantly increased in outer hair cells, the spiral ganglion and stria vascularis. Calpain 2 protein expression markedly increased with an increased dose of cisplatin. Results suggested that calpain 1 and calpain 2 mediated cisplatin-induced ototoxicity in BALB/c mice. During this process, calpain 2 plays a leading role.展开更多

The size distribution of muck pile indicates the efficiency of blasting pattern to reach the required optimum sizes. Nevertheless, there is no mature model to predict fragmentation distribution to date that can be used in various open pit mines. Therefore, a new framework to evaluate and predict fragmentation distribution is presented based on the image analysis approach. For this purpose, the data collected from Jajarm bauxite mine in Iran were used as the sources in this study. The image analysis process was performed by Split-Desktop software to find out fragmentation distribution, uniformity index and average size of the fragmented rocks. Then, two different approaches including the multivariate regression method and the decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory(DEMATEL) technique were incorporated to develop new models of the uniformity index and the average size to improve the Rosin-Rammler function. The performances of the proposed models were evaluated in four blasting operation sites. The results obtained indicate that the regression model possesses a better performance in prediction of the uniformity index and the average size and subsequently the fragmentation distribution in comparison with DEMATEL and conventional Rosin-Rammler models.展开更多
To study quantitative index of bci-2, P53, Nroliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA),ER and PR in breast carcinoma and their correiation and their relatiousbip with prognosis, the ex expression of bcl-2, P53 and PCNA ...To study quantitative index of bci-2, P53, Nroliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA),ER and PR in breast carcinoma and their correiation and their relatiousbip with prognosis, the ex expression of bcl-2, P53 and PCNA were studied by immunohistochemical technique. The measurementof ER and PR used enzyme linked affinuity histochemical methods. The quantitative index was analyzed by image technique. All analyses were hased on 60 breast carcinomas. The results were as follows:the more bcl-2 protein, the lower histological graded the longer survival term and the highersurvival rate (P< 0. 05). The quautitative measurement of bcl-2, P53 and PCNA expression were ofvalue in evaluating the degree of differentiation and prognosis in breast carcinoma. The quantitativeand qualitative measurement or p53 protein expression showed a Ⅰwerful evidence in evaluatingprognosis of bcl-2 were more significant in evaluating poor prognosis of breast carcinoma. A relationship between bcl-2 and ER, PR showed a better value for response to endocrine therapy in breastcarcinoma patients.展开更多

Then, the pilling of fabric was assessed synthetically by the size of pilling A,number of pilling N and morphology of pitting S. At the end, we tested the practicability of this method by testing knitgoods as a sample, and the result was satisfiable.展开更多
