Objective To observe the influence of N-myc downstream-regulated gene 2 (NDRG2) on the growth and invasive ability of human colon cancer cell line SW620,and to explore its mechanism.Methods pcDNA3.1-NDRG2 and siRNA-NDRG2 were transfected transiently respectively into SW620 by Lipofectamine TM 2000,untreated cells as the control group.Western blotting was used to investigate the expression of NDRG2 and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2).Matrigel invasion assay was used to study the invasive abilities of SW620 cells in all groups.The growth curve was determined through 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazoly)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide method.Result After transfecting pcDNA3.1-NDRG2 into the SW620 cells,the protein level of NDRG2 increased and the expression of MMP-2 declined markedly.After transfecting siRNA-NDRG2 into the SW620 cells,the protein level of NDRG2 declined and the expression of MMP-2 increased markedly.In addition,compared with the control group (75.80 ± 4.82),the numbers of transmembrane cells in pcDNA3.1 group (56.20 ± 7.40) and in siRNA group (94.20 ± 9.23) were significantly different (t =13.102,P =0.000;t =11.820,P =0.000).The growth curve showed that:compared with the control group (0.67 ±0.01),the absorbance of the fifth day after transfection in pcDNA3.1 group (0.46 ±0.01) and in siRNA group (0.91 ± 0.02) were different significantly (t =9.561,P =0.000;t =10.922,P =0.000).Conclusion NDRG2 can reduce the invasion and proliferation ability of colon cancer cell SW620,and its mechanism may be related to the down-regulation of MMP-2 expression.

AIM:To study the protective effect of aqueous extract of 2-branched and 3-branched velvet antler on cisplatin (CDDP)-induced nephrotoxicity in mice .METHODS:The mouse model of renal injury was induced by intra-gastric administration of CDDP at the dose of 15 mg/kg.After treatment, kidney index (KI), serum creatinine (SCr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), and the content of malondialdehyde ( MDA) in the kidney were determined .The renal pathological changes were observed with HE staining.RESULTS:Aqueous extract of velvet antler at the tested dose markedly decreased BUN , SCr and the content of MDA, and elevated the activity of SOD and GSH-Px in the mice pretreated with CDDP ( P<0.05) .The pathological chan-ges of the renal tissues were improved obviously , and the injury of the epithelial cells of renal tubules was mitigated .The effect of the aqueous extract of 2-branched velvet antler on renal function and cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity was better than that of 3-branched one at the same concentration .CONCLUSION: The aqueous extract of 2-branched and 3-branched velvet antler has a certain protective effect on cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity , which may be associated with in-creasing the anti-oxidative capability of mouse renal tissue .

AIM：To analyse sequences of p62dok amino acid and cDNA and to investigate p62dok tyrosine phosphorylation and its relation with p21ras GAP. METHODS：The purified p62dok was extracted from CHO/IR cells. The peptide sequence of p62dok was carried out on a high performance analyzer. PCR was performed with the primers designed from the sequence of p62dok amino acid. Western blot and immunoprecipitation were used to identify tyrosine phosphorylation of p62dok and the binding of p62dok with p21ras GAP. RESULTS：The p62dok cDNA is a 1863 bp sequence and code 481 amino acid with 15 tyrosine residues and a putative pleckstrin homology domain. The p62dok protein is rich in PxxP motif. The tyrosine-phosphorylated p62dok can bind p21ras GAP. CONCLUSION：Perhaps p62dok is a new signaling molecule and play an important role in insulin signaling networks through RAS/MAPK pathway.

The aim of this study was to establish the methods to identify crystal form of dasatinib in tablets.X-ray powder diffraction(XRPD)and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance(ssNMR)were used to analyze the crystal form of dasatinib in Sprycel? tablets and Yinishu? tablets.The results showed that monohydrate and anhydrate were identified in Sprycel? and Yinishu? tablets respectively;with no detectable anhydrate in Sprycel? tablets and no detectable monohydrate in Yinishu? tablets.The results of XRPD and ssNMR were consistent;and could be both applied in the crystal form identification of dasatinib in tablets.

AIM: To study the effect of thyroid hormone on the expressional change of myosin heavy chain(MHC) gene in cardiomyocyte induced by angiotensinⅡ(AngⅡ) and its potential mechanism. METHODS: Cardiac myocyte was cultured according to the method of Simpson. 10 -8 mol/L T_3 and 10 -7 mol/L AngⅡ were added to the culture medium,respectively or synchronously. After 48 h,the expression of ? and ?-MHC mRNA in myocytes were detected by RT-PCR. The protein kinase C activation were detected by PepTag non-radioactive PKC assay. The incorporation of -Leucine and -thymine to test the protein and DNA synthesis in myocytes were also performed. RESULTS: AngⅡalone increased the incorporation of -Leucine of myocytes while it had no effect on the incorporation of -thy mine. The expression of ?-MHC mRNA was increased and the expression of ?-MHC mRNA was decreased significantly at the condition of AngⅡ. The enhanced PKC activation was induced by AngⅡalso. When AngⅡand T_3 were added to the culture medium synchronously,though the incorporation of -leucine and -thymine were not changed compared with AngⅡ treated alone. The ?-MHC mRNA expression was increased and the ?-MHC mRNA expression was decreased significantly. The PKC activation of the myocytes also was decreased. CONCLUSIONS: T_3 inhibited the expressional change of myosin heavy chain gene in cardiac myocytes induced by AngⅡ. The effect of T_3 on the change of PKC activation in cardiac myocytes may be one of its mechanisms.

Glaucocalyxin A （GLA） is a natural diterpenoid extracted from Isodon amethystoides belonging to Labiatae. Modern pharmacological research has shown that GLA has anti-inflammatory， anti-tumor， anti-fibrotic， osteoporosis-ameliorating， and cardiovascular system-protecting activities and good biosafety. However， the low content in plants， poor solubility， high metabolic rate， and low bioavailability limit the application of GLA. To address these issues， researchers have studied the total synthesis， structural modification， and nanomedicine development of GLA. By reviewing the available studies about GLA in the past five years， we summarize the research progress in the total synthesis， pharmacological activities and mechanisms， and in vivo metabolic transformation， aiming to provide a theoretical basis for clarifying the specific mechanisms underlying the pharmacological activities of GLA and for further research， development， and clinical applications of GLA.
