Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 2010;31(3):274-277
Objective To study whether miR-15a and miR-16-1 can enhance the sensitivity of Raji cells to cytarabine (Ara-C). Methods MiR-15a and miR-16-1 oligonucleotides were transfected into Raji cells with Lipofectamine™ 2000, and then the cells were treated with Ara-C. The IC50 values of Ara-C was detected by CCK8 assay. The growth of Raji cells was measured by trypan blue dye exclusion method. The apoptotic cells were observed by Hoechst dyeing; AnnexinV/PI double dyeing and glow cytometry(FCM) were used to examine the cell apoptotic rate. Results After transfection of miR-15a or miR-16-1 into Raji cells, the IC50 values of Ara-C were 10. 41 and 10. 86, respectively, which were significantly lower than that of the untransfected group(15.43)and scrambled oligonucleotides (SODN)transfection group(14. 92, P<0.05). Trypan blue dye exclusion assay showed that miR-15a/miR-16-1 transfection group had obviously decreased the cell growth compared to miR-15a, miR-16-1 group, untransfected group and SODN transfected group; Hoechst dyeing demonstrated plenty of apoptotic cells. AnnexinV/PI double dyeing assays by FCM indicated that the cell apoptotic rates in earlier period and late period were 20. 93% and 25. 27% in the miR-15a+Ara-C group, and 20. 69% and 23. 13% in the miR-16-1 + Ara-C group, which were obviously higher than those in miR-15a group (6. 99%, 10. 08%), miR-16-1 group(4. 73%, 10. 64%), Ara-C group (10. 88%, 11. 83%) and control group (14. 39%, 11. 93%). Conclusion MiR-15a and miR-16-1 oligonucleotides can enhance the sensitivity of Raji cells to Ara-C.
3. Expression and prognostic significance of ERCC1, RRM1, and BRCA1 mRNA in non-small cell lung cancer
Tumor 2007;27(9):719-722
Objective: To investigated the expressions of ERCC1, RRM1 and BRCA1 (members of DNA repair gene family) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) as well as their clinical prognostic significance. Methods: Expression levels of ERCC1, RRM1 and BRCA1 were detected by real-time PCR method in 32 NSCLC patients and 16 cases of adjacent normal lung tissues. Wilcoxon signed-rank test, Wilcoxon rank sum test, rank correlation, Kaplan-Meier survival curve, and COX multivariate regression analysis were used for statistical analysis. Results: The expression levels of ERCC1, RRM1 and BRCA1 were significantly higher in lung cancer tissues than that in adjacent normal lung tissues. There were significant correlations between intratumoral expression of ERCC1, RRM1, and BRCA1. RRM1 expression level was significantly higher in lung squamous cell carcinomas compared with lung adenocarcinomas but had no difference between different clinical stages. The expression of ERCC1 and BRCA1 had no difference between different pathological classification and clinical TNM stages. The patients with high expression of RRM1 and BRCA1 had significant longer survival time than those with low expression of RRM1 and BRCA1. COX multivariate regression analysis showed that expression of RRM1 was an independent prognostic factor for NSCLC. Conclusion: The expression levels of ERCCI, RRM1, and BRCA1 are significantly higher in lung cancer tissues than that of adjacent normal lung tissues. The patients with high expression of RRM1 and BRCA1 had significant longer survival time than those with low expression of RRM1 and BRCA1. RRM1 and BRCA1 mRNA expressions can be used to predict prognosis of NSCLC.

7.Functional expression of oligopeptide transporter PepT1 in the gastrointestinal tract and its regulatory factors
Chinese Journal of Clinical Nutrition 2010;18(2):115-120
Many peptide transporters have been identified in mammals, among which PepT1 has been widely studied. PepT1, a member of proton-coupled oligopeptide transporter (POT) superfamily, is a peptide transporter of low affinity and high capacity and is mainly expressed in the brush border membrane of intestinal epithelial cells. PepT1 plays an important role in the absorption of di/tri-peptide (the degradation products of protein in intestinal tract). Meanwhile, it mediates the transport of peptide-like drugs and the bacterial products. Therefore,the changes of the functional expression of PepT1 in the gastrointestinal tract may dramatically affect the internal and external environmental stability and drug absorption. This paper reviews the structural features and function,distribution, transport mechanisms, and regulatory factors of PepT1.

China Pharmacy 2015;26(35):4971-4973
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of different plasmapheresis supplement timing on therapeutic efficacy of toxic liver injury. METHODS:96 patients with toxic liver injury and divided into group A,B ,C and D with 32 cases in each group ac-cording to different plasmapheresis supplement timing. All patients received plasmapheresis supplement based on routine treatment. In group A,synchronized fluid replacement was 100% fresh plasma;in group B,synchronized fluid replacement was 40% normal saline firstly,and then 60%fresh plasma;in group C,substitute liquid was given till the in vitro blood reached 12%of circulation amount,supplement order as 40% normal saline for the first supplement,and then add 60% fresh plasma. The clinical symptoms and signs,liver function,prothrombin activity and blood biochemical indicators were observed in each group before and after treat-ment. RESULTS:Plasmapheresis supplement had good therapeutic efficacy on toxic liver injury;but the time of clinical symptoms and signs disappearance in group C was significantly shorter than that in group A and B,and the group B was significantly shorter the group A,with statistical significance (P<0.05). The plasma bilirubin,prothrombin activity,albumin levels of 3 groups after treatment were significantly better than before,with statistical significance(P<0.05);the group C was better than the group A and B,and the group B was better than the group A,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Compared with before treatment,the lev-els of AST and ALT in 3 groups decreased significantly after treatment,with statistical significance(P<0.05);the group B and C were better than the group A,with statistical significance(P<0.05);the group B and C was similar to each other,without statisti-cal significance(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Different plasmapheresis supplement timing have different effect on toxic liver injury. The supplement method that giving 40% normal saline for the first supplement,and then add 60% fresh plasma when in vitro blood reach 12%of circulation amount has more significant effect.
