Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2017;33(7):508-512
Objective To describe self-care agency and its influence factors of the patients with temporary ileum stoma. Methods The descriptive statistics of non-experimental study was performed in the study. The convenience sample consisted of 144 patients from 3 hospitals in Shanghai. The self-care agency was measured by the Colostomy Self-care Agency Scale. Results 144 cases of colorectal cancer temporary ileum stoma patients′ self-care ability scored an average of 57.02 ± 7.00, including self- care willingness (37.19 ± 4.04) points, self-care knowledge 17 points, self-care skills 3 points. The multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that seven factors were statistically significant including age, gender, culture level, living area, postoperative months, presence of complications, whether to accept professional nursing training or education. Conclusions Temporary ileum stoma in patients of rectal cancer with medium self-care ability, but self-care skill level is relatively not high and should be strengthen attention in patients with rectal cancer undergoing ileum stoma. Targeted nursing intervention should be carried out to improve the self-care ability and improve the quality of life of patients with stoma.

This study examined the effects of arsenic trioxide on apoptosis and interleukin4 release in T cells of asthmatic patients in vitro and investigated the role of Bcl2 in the active mechanism. Tcells were isolated from asthmatic patients (n=21) and healthy controls (n=20), and then treated with arsenic trioxide and dexamethasone. Cell apoptosis was measured using fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry and a cytochrome c ELISA kit. Interleukin4 levels in the serum and in supernatants from T cells were quantified by ELISA. Flow cytometric analysis and immunofluorescence studies were performed to determine Bcl 2 expression. Tcells of the asthmatic patients (I.e. without treatment) exhibited decelerated spontaneous apoptosis after 24 h incubation in vitro when compared to T cells of the healthy controls. With dexamethasone treatment, an increase in apoptosis of Tcells was not significantly different between both groups, irrespective of the method used. Arsenic trioxide treatment, however, significantly increased the apoptosis of T cells of the asthmatic group and showed a slight effect on the control group. In asthmatic patients, elevated levels of interleukin 4 and upregulated Bcl 2 expression were detected. Moreover, in vitro, T cells of asthmatic patients spontaneously released more interleukin4 and exhibited more Bcl 2 expression than T cells from the control group. Arsenic trioxide treatment significantly decreased interleukin4 release and downregulated Bcl 2 expression in asthmatic patients, while it only slightly affected healthy controls. Dexamethasone treatment decreased interleukin4 release in both groups examined. It did not significantly influence Bcl2 expression. These results suggest that arsenic trioxide induces T cell apoptosis and decreases interleukin4 release in T cells of asthmatic patients in vitro and that downregulation of Bcl2 expression may be an important mechanism.

AIM To study the possible mechanism of the treatment of arsenic trioxide on asthma. METHODS T cells isolated from 21 asthmatic patients and 20 healthy controls were treated with arsenic trioxide (0.1 mg·L-1) or dexamethasone (5 mg·L-1),in vitro, for 24 h. Interleukin-4 (IL-4) levels in supernatants from T cells were quantified with ELISA. Cell apoptosis was measured by using fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry and cytochrome c ELISA kit. RESULTS T cells of asthmatic patients spontaneously released more IL-4 than that of healthy controls. Arsenic trioxide significantly decreased IL-4 release of T cells from asthmatic patients, which was more obvious compared with healthy controls. Dexamethasone decreased IL-4 release in both groups. Apoptosis percentage and cytochrome c content in cytoplasm of T cells from asthmatic patients were lower than those from healthy controls. Arsenic trioxide significantly increased the apoptosis percentage and cytochrome c content in cytoplasm of T cells in the asthmatic group, and had slighter effects on that in healthy controls. Dexamathasone increased the apoptosis percentage and cytochrome c content of T cells in both groups. CONCLUSION The mechanism of the treatment of arsenic trioxide on asthma involves the induction of T cell apoptosis and decrease of IL-4 release in asthmatic patients.

Aim To investigate the effects of glycyrrhizin on the proliferation of ASMC stimulated by fetal calf or histamine in rats. Methods Cell culture of rat ASMC, MTT assay, flow cytometry and cell growth counts were used in this study. Results ①In the culture medium containing 100g?L -1 fetal calf serum, Glycyrrhizin at low concentration(6?10 -5 mol?L -1 ) stimulated the increase of A 570 in ASMC. This effect descended with increasing glycyrrhizin concentration and changed to be inhibitory at high concentration (from 384?10 -5 mol?L -1 to 1 536 ?10 -5 mol?L -1 ). In the culture medium containing 10 -2 mol?L -1 histamine, Glycyrrhizin at both low and high concentration inhibited the increase of A 570 in ASMC. ②In the culture medium containing 100 g?L -1 fetal calf, Glycyrrhizin at low concentration(6?10 -5 mol?L -1 ) stimulated the proliferation of ASMC. This effect descended with increasing glycyrrhizin concentration and changed to be inhibitory at high concentration (from 384?10 -5 mol?L -1 to 1 536 ?10 -5 mol?L -1 ). In the culture medium containing 1 g?L -1 histamine, Glycyrrhizin at both low and high concentration inhibited the proliferation of ASMC. ③In the culture medium containing 100 g?L -1 fetal calf or 10 -2 mol?L -1 histamine, with increasing glycyrrhizin concentration, the cell count in G 1 phase increase, the cell count in G 2 and M phase decrease. Conclusion ①Glycyrrhizin accelerated the proliferation of ASMC stimulated by fetal calf at low concentration, inhibited the proliferation at high concentration. ②Glycyrrhizin inhibited the proliferation of ASMC stimulated by histamine at both low concentration and high concentration.

Objective To evaluate effects of simultaneous inhibition of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1(mTORC1)kinase and glycogen synthase kinase-3β(GSK-3β)on phosphorylation of 4E-binding protein-1(4EBP1), cap-dependent translation, as well as survival and apoptosis of melanoma cells. Methods Cultured A375 cells were classified into several groups to be treated with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO group), the mTORC1 kinase inhibitor everolimus at a concentration of 5 nmol/L (everolimus group), the GSK-3β kinase inhibitor AR-A014418 at a concentration of 10 μmol/L (AR-A014418 group), or 5 nmol/L everolimus and 10 μmol/L AR-A014418(combined treatment group). After additional culture, Western-blot analysis was performed to measure protein expressions of phosphorylated 4EBP1 (p4EBP1)and survivin in A375 cells, m7GTP pull down assay to estimate interaction between eukaryotic initiation factor-4E (eIF4E)and eIF4G, cell counting kit 8 (CCK8)assay to evaluate cell proliferation, and flow cytometry to detect cell apoptosis. Results Both everolimus and AR-A014418 had inhibitory effects on 4EBP1 phosphorylation and survivin expression. The expressions of p4EBP1-65 and survivin were both significantly decreased in the everolimus group (0.74 ± 0.05 and 0.71 ± 0.06 respectively), AR-A014418 group (0.62 ± 0.06 and 0.58 ± 0.07 respectively)and combined treatment group (0.14 ± 0.04 and 0.09 ± 0.05 respectively)compared with the DMSO group (1.00 ± 0.07 and 1.00 ± 0.06, respectively, all P < 0.001), with the most significant decrease observed in the combined treatment group. As m7GTP pull-down assay showed, the everolimus group, AR-A014418 group and combined treatment group all showed significantly lower relative expression levels of eIF4G(0.72 ± 0.04, 0.67 ± 0.05 and 0.12 ± 0.05 vs. 1.00 ± 0.06, all P < 0.001), but significantly higher relative expression levels of 4EBP1 (1.98 ± 0.16, 2.32 ± 0.17 and 7.58 ± 0.25 vs. 1.00 ± 0.08, all P < 0.001)than the DMSO group, and the combined treatment group showed the lowest eIF4G expression but highest 4EBP1 expression. After 24-hour culture, the proliferation of A375 cells was inhibited by 18.5% ± 1.3% in the everolimus group, 19.8% ± 1.8% in the AR-A014418 group, and 61.2% ± 2.1% in the combined treatment group compared with the DMSO group, with the strongest inhibition noted in the combined treatment group. The inhibitory effects of everolimus and AR-A014418 on cell proliferation increased over time, and showed the same trend at 48 hours. Flow cytometry showed that the apoptosis of A375 cells was accelerated by the 24-hour treatments with everolimus and AR-A014418 alone or in combination, with the apoptosis rate being 14.28% ± 2.18%, 14.57% ± 2.35% and 55.18% ± 6.27% in the everolimus group, AR-A014418 group and combined treatment group respectively, and the combined treatment showed the strongest accelerating effect. Conclusion The combined treatment with everolimus and AR-A014418 can evidently inhibit 4EBP1 phosphorylation and eIF4F complex formation in A375 cells, which then suppress cap-dependent translation and promote apoptosis of melanoma cells.
