Objective To detect the expressions of HuR and COX-2 in epithelial ovarian carcinoma,and investigate the correlation of HuR and COX-2 expression. In addition, we attempt to seek the pathway to prevent the occurrence and development of epithelial ovarian cancer by combined analysis of various clinicopathologic characteristics. Methods The expressions of HuR and COX-2 in 68 epithelial ovarian carcinoma, 10 borderline ovarian tumors and 5 normal ovarian tissues were examined by S-P immunohistochemical method. The relationship of HuR and COX-2 expressions with clinicopathologic parameterwere evaluated by correlation analysis. Results(1) The expression of HuR in epithelial ovarian cancer tissue (76. 47% ,52/68) was significantly higher than that in borderline epithelial ovarian tumor tissues (30. 00% ,3/10) and normal ovarian tissues (0, x2 = 18. 873, Ps ＜ 0. 05), but there were no significant differences betweenthe expressions of HuR in borderline epithelial ovarian tumor and normal ovarian tissue(P ＞ 0. 05).(2) The positive expression rate of cytoplasmic HuR in epithelial ovarian carcinoma and borderline epithelial ovarian tumor were 45.60% (31/68) and 10. 00% (1/10) respectively,but normal ovarian tissues showed no staining of HuR. We found no significant differences between the expression of cytoplasmic HuR in epithelial ovarian carcinoma and borderline epithelial ovarian tumor or normal ovarian tissue(x2 = 7. 999 ,P =0. 018).(3) The positive expression rate of cytoplasmic HuR in epithelial ovarian carcinoma of FIGO stage Ⅲ - Ⅳ was significantly higher than that of stage Ⅰ - Ⅱ(56. 09% vs. 29. 63%, x2 = 4. 598, P = 0. 032). The positive expression rates of cytoplasmic HuR in epithelial ovarian carcinoma of histological grade 1,2,3 were 10. 00%,46. 67% ,57. 14% respectively, which showed significant difference in the comparison among the three groups (x2 =6. 627 ,P =0. 036). (4) The positive expression rates of COX-2 in epithelial ovarian cancer (67. 64%)and borderline epithelial ovarian tumor tissues (60. 00%) were significantly higher than that in normal ovarian tissues (0, Ps ＜ 0. 05), but we found no significant difference in the comparison between the expression of malignant and borderline ovarian tumors. Statistical analysis showed that the positive expression rate of COX-2 in epithelial ovarian carcinoma was correlated with FIGO stage and lymph node metastasis. (5)There was a significantly positive correlation between cytoplasmic HuR and COX-2 expressions in epithelial ovarian carcinoma. Conclusion The expressions of HuR and COX-2 increased in the epithelial ovarian carcinoma, and the cytoplasmic expression of HuR was significantly correlated with the expression of COX-2. These results suggested that increased cytoplasmic expression of HuR and COX-2 expression might play important roles in the initiation and development of epithelial ovarian carcinoma.

Crystal power/epoxy resin composite was made with refined crystal power as filling material in different composition. The shearing strength and coefficient of thermal expansion of the crystal powder/epoxy resin composite was studied. The sectional morphology was observed under a scanning electron microscope. The results of the study indicate that the shearing strength of crystal powder/epoxy resin composite is improved while the coefficient of thermal expansion decreases with increase of the amount of crystal powder, and a well-proportioned three-dimensional structure is obtained. The augmentation of shearing strength exhibits no linear relationship to the amount of crystal powder, and there is an optimal amount for crystal powder filling. The coefficient of thermal expansion is decreased with increase of crystal powder filling, and three-dimensional structure optimization exhibits the' similar inflexion.

Background and purpose:Colorectal cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide as well as a prevalent cause of morbidity and mortality in China.Mustard seed and its components have been reported to possess anticancer properties.The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a diet mixed with mustard seeds (MS)on the prevention of colorectal tumorigenesis in Kunming mice induced with azoxymethane.Methods:Sixweek-old female Kunming species mice of were randomly divided into 4 different groups:AOM alone,AOM+5%MS,AOM+10%MS,and the untreated control group.Colorectal tumorigenesis was subcutaneously induced by injecting 10 mg/kg of AOM once a week,for 3 weeks.Different doses of MS were administered in the diet during this study.Thirtytwo weeks after initiation,the mice were put down through cervical dislocation.The colon and recta of the mice were isolated and flushed with nonnal but ice-cold saline.The site,size,and number of colorectal tumors were recorded.The incidence of colorectal tumor in each group was determined.Results:No tumors were found in the control group.Compared to AOM-treated control group(86.7%),the occurrence of colorectal tumors was reduced to 60.0%when administered with a 5%diet of mustard seeds and to 41.7%(P＜0.05)with a diet of 10%mustard seeds.Tumor burden (tumors/mouse)was 2.2±1.2 in the AOM-treated control group whereas it was reduced to 1.1±1.1(P＜0.05)in the 5%diet of mustard seeds and 0.7±0.9(P＜0.05)in the 10%diet of mustard seeds.Conelusion:The results indicate that a diet of mustard seeds is able to inhibit the development of colorectal cancer in mice induced by AOM,suggesting possible future application of MS as a chemopreventive agent for colorectal cancer.
