Histone codes are characterized by the type, location, and modification of amino acids in proteins. Recent research has shown that histone codes are closely related to glioblastoma (GBM). In GBM cells, the combined effects of various effector proteins and histone-modified target sites control the state of chromatins, which further affects the epigenetic phenomena, including GBM cell DNA replication and gene expression and regulation. GBM histone code information exists in histone acetylation, methylation, phos-phorylation, ubiquitination, and other post-translational modification processes. Briefly, this study on the relationship between histone code and GBM provides further molecular targets to develop the clinical diagnosis and treatment of GBM.

Stem cell treatment for traumatic brain injury is the focus of current research.But there are still a lot of problems for stem cell transplantation,for example Immune rejection,low survival rate,and so on.Research on the recruitment of autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells to the injured part,and directionally induce the differentiation of neurons to repair the damage,thus become a research hotspot for the craniocerebral injury treatment.Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its receptor are widely distributed in the central nervous system.VEGF can promote cerebral microcirculation remodeling and induce MSCs to different toward the blood vessel endothelium.It can also inhibit neuronal death and apoptosis and directionally recruit and induce autologous neural progenitor cells and MSCs to different toward nerve cells.Formed between VEGF,MSCS and neurotrophin network mechanisms to promote brain repair.This self repair treatment is expected to be a good prospect of research plans.

Objective In order to study the effect of cold stress on the secretory function of rat ovary, the changes of hCG-induced progesterone and cAMP were observed and the livability of the oocytes was determined. Methods The rat luteal and granulose cells and the oocytes were cultured, progesterone and cAMP content was determined by radioimmunoassay kit (RIA kit) under 37 ℃, 0 ℃, -5 ℃, -10 ℃,-15 ℃, -20 ℃ and -25 ℃ respectively. The livability of the oocytes was determined by MTT assay. Results At -5 ℃ to -25 ℃, the content of progesterone in the luteal cells and granulose cells medium decreased compared with the control group. At 0 ℃～-25 ℃, the content of cAMP in the luteal cells and granulose cells medium was higher compared with the control. The livability of the oocytes was decreasing from -15 ℃. Conclusion Cold stress can inhibit hCG-induced progesterone secretion in the luteal and granulose cells of rats in the one hand, and can increase cAMP, decrease the livability of the oocytes in the other hand.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are vesicles like body of phospholipid bilayer membrane, which are able to mediate the transfer of genetic material. There are receptors, proteins and nucleic acids in the body, with carrying tumor genetic material, regulating tumor microenvironment, promoting tumor angiogenesis and mediating tumor cell metastasis. At present, it is found that there is a close re-lationship between the secretion and the metastasis of lung cancer. The main aspects of the brain metastasis of the lung cancer medi-ated by the exocrine body include the regulation of the microenvironment of the brain, the destruction of the blood-brain barrier, and the regulation of tumor cell pathology. The study on the relationship between the tumor and the metastasis of lung cancer may pro-vide more molecular targets for the development, diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer.

Objective To investigate effects of thoracoscopic sternal elevation by using a steel bar(Nuss procedure) in the treatment of pectus excavatum in children.Methods Under the assistance of thoracoscopy,a substernal tunnel was created using a blunt dissector via a right thoracic incision.Then a steel bar was inserted under the sternum.After the bar was placed in position,it was turned over to elevate the deformed sternum and the anterior chest wall.Results The operation was completed successfully in all the 11 cases.The operating time ranged 50~85 min(mean, 67 min).The intraoperative blood loss ranged 5~20 ml(mean,10 ml).The surgical outcomes were classified as "excellent" in 9 cases,"good" in 1 case,and "fair" in 1.Follow-up observations for 2~15 months(mean,6.4 months) in 8 cases showed satisfactory appearance.Conclusions Thoracoscopic Nuss procedure for pectus excavatum in children is a minimally invasive technique with limited surgical trauma,minimal blood loss,simple performance,rapid recovery,and good cosmetic results,being worthy of recommendation.

Mass spectrometry-based quantitative proteomics has become an indispensable tool for tumor marker discovery.Stable isotope labeling with amino acid in cell culture(SILAC),as a representative of in vivo metabolic labeling strategy,is a simple and relatively quantitative assay for comparative proteomics.Two kinds of cultured cells are grown in the medium containing either a light or heavy isotope labeled essential amino acids.After several cell doublings,the heavy amino acids are introduced into the nascent polypeptides in a sequence-specific fashion and the natural amino acid is completely replaced by its isotopically labeled analog.Accuracy quantification would be feasible by analyzing the peak intensities of every same peptide pairs labeled with light or heavy isotopes by the mass spectrometry.Compared with chemical labeling,SILAC requires much less amount of labeled proteins,and it is an efficient,straightforward,reproducible and accurate approach in cell-based systems.This method can not only investigate the dynamics of protein abundance,but also monitor the variation of posttranslational modifications and protein-protein interactions qualitatively and quantitatively.It is a powerful and important quantitative proteomics tool for tumor marker discovery.
