Inhibition of proliferation and induction of differentiation by 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamm D3 of human promyelocytic leukemic cell line (HL-60)are reported. At the concentration range of 109 to 106 mol/ L, 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 had effect in inhibiting cell proliferation with time-dependent and dose-dependent manner. Strong inhibition of colony cell growth (74.8?11.1%)was observed at 107 mol/L concentration. It was also found that HL-60 cells could be induced into monocytes by 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3at the same concentrations,which were demonstrated by cytochemistry and specific antigen of cell surface and NBT reduction test. In addition, the relationship between proliferation and differentiation is discussed according to the result of flow cytometry.

Cytological characteristics of a case of adult T-cell leukemia were studied by detection of morphologic, cytochemical and immunological methods. The leukemic cells found in the peripheral blood belonged to mature T-lymphocytes and presented the changes of polymorphous nucleus which had diagnostic significance in association with clinical features and positive ATLA antibody. The mechanism of formation of cytological characteristics of adult T-cell leukemia is also discussed.

Objective To explore the relationship of T2DM with xerophthalmia after cataract surgery.Methods Retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 137 cataract patients (176 eyes) from April,2016 to October,2016.The DM patients were chosen as the DM group (58 cases,71 eyes),and single cataract ones were chosen as the control group (79 cases,105 eyes).The clinical data and xerophthalmia index were compared between two groups.Results The age and sex constituent ratio of DM group and control group had no significant difference (all P ＞ 0.05).The postoperative MQ score,BUT,FL,SⅠt of DM group at 1 week,1 month and 3 months were significantly worse than those at preoperative 2 days (all P ＜ 0.01),but the indexes relieved with time prolong.The postoperative MQ score,FL,SⅠt of control group at 1 week,1 month were significantly worse than those at preoperative 2 days (P ＜ 0.01),the postoperative BUT and preoperative BUT had no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05),all of the postoperative index and preoperative index had no significant difference(all P ＞ 0.05).The postoperative MQ score,BUT,FL,SⅠt of DM group at 1 week,1 month and 3 months were significantly worse than those of the control group (all P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion The xerophthalmia after cataract surgery of T2DM patients are more seriously than normal cataract patients.

Objective To study treatment method that improve the cronic perapical periodonitis. Methods To fill the tooth channal of chronic perapical periodonitis with a paste of doxycycline and tinidazol, or gutta percha point. Results Among 206 cases of teeth those succeesful rates of two methods were 97.09 % and 98.06 % after 2 years clinical observe. Conclusion To fill the tooth channal of cronic perapical periodonitis with a paste of doxycycline and tinidazol to treat the chronic perapical periodonitis,it shortens the treatment,simplifies operation,makes application more extensive and its nearly period effect is the same as that of using gutta percha point to fill the tooth.

In order to probe into the mechanism of low-dose chemotherapeutic agents in the treatment of leukemia, we studied the effects of low concentrations (l-40ng/ml) of daunorubicin (DNR) on proliferation and differentiation of human promyelocytic leukemia cell line (HL-60). 1 ng/ml DNR could inhibit the proliferation of the cells, but no induction of differentiation was found. DNR at more than 5 ng/ml had both cytotoxicity and induction of differentiation. Through the count of survival cells, [3H]TdR and [3H]UR incorporation, cloning efficiency, cell morphology and NBT reduction test, it is concluded that low-dose DNR could have inhibitory and cytotoxic effects on the cells, and its inducing differentiation was not important.

The effects of 1, 25 (OH)2D3 in combination with low-dose chemotherapeutant on the human promyelocytic leukemic cells (HL-60) were investigated. In 4-day-cultured cells, 1, 25 (OH)2D3 and low-dose harringtonine (HH) or daunorubicine (DNR) had synergic effect in inducing differentiation of HL-60 cells, and HH or DNR significantly potentiated the effect of 1, 25 (OH)2D3 in inhibiting the cell proliferation, which were demonstrated by NBT reduction test and [3H]-TdR incorporation, respectively. Cell cycle analysis by flow cytometery revealed that the cells in S phase decreased remarkably and most cells stopped at G0/G1 phase. The results provide a new way for the inducers in treatment of leukemia.

Diabetes mellitus is a common disease of serious harmful to human health,but its pathogenesis is not entirely clear.Mitochondria are the important organelles to generate energy in eukaryocytes,and play a pivotal role in the regulation of reactive oxygen species generation,intracellular calcium homeostasis,and apoptosis signal transduction.The possible causes of mitochondrial dysfunction include oxidative stress,Ca2+ disturbances,reduction of mitochondrial biosynthesis,opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pore,mitochondrial DNA mutations,and etc..Many studies demonstrate that mitochondrial dysfunction is associated with β-cell dysfunction of type 1 diabetes mellitus and insulin resistance of type 2 diabetes mellitus.Moreover,mitochondrial dysfunction plays important roles in the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy.This present article reviewed the current status of studies on the relationship of mitochondrial dysfunction and diabetes mellitus and diabetic cardiomyopathy.It is very important to understand and study mitochondrial dysfunction and its important roles in diabetes mellitus and diabetic cardiomyopathy in order to clarify the pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus and explore new approaches of prevention and treatment for diabetes mellitus.
