OBJECTIVETo investigate the role of RLIP76 in regulating multi-drug resistance in small cell lung cancer (SCLC), and to analyze the relationship between its expression and prognosis.

METHODSThe expressions of RLIP76 protein and gene were detected by Western blotting and real-time PCR (RT-PCR) in both the chemosensitive SCLC H69 cell line and chemoresistant H69AR cell line, respectively. siRNA was transfected into the H69AR cells to inhibit RLIP76 expression, and eGFP-RLIP76 was transfected into the H69 cells to enhance RLIP76 expression. The drug-sensitivity of cells to chemotherapeutic drugs (ADM, DDP, VP-16) were detected by CCK8 assay. The expression of RLIP76 in the SCLC tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry. The relationship of RLIP76 expression with clinicopathological features and prognosis of the patients was analyzed.

RESULTSThe expression of RLIP76 in H69AR cells was 13.675 ± 0.983, significantly higher than 1.074 ± 0.107 in the H69 cells (P < 0.01). The drug-sensitivities of H69AR cells to chemotherapeutic drugs were significantly increased when the expression of RLIP76 was down-regulated (P< 0.001). The sensitivities of H69 cells to chemotherapeutic drugs ADM, DDP and VP-16 were significantly decreased after transfection with eGFP-RLIP76 up-regulating the RLIP76 expression (P = 0.003). The positive expression rates were 61.3% and 9.4% in the SCLC tumor tissues and para-cancerous tissues, respectively (P < 0.01). The expression of RLIP76 was significantly correlated with clinical stage, chemosensitivity and overall survival of the SCLC patients (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSOur results suggest that RLIP76 is involved in the regulation of small cell lung cancer multidrug resistance. RLIP76 may serve as a potential target gene to evaluate the chemosensitivity and clinical prognostic for small cell lung cancer.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of YMDD mutation during Lamivudine therapy on chronic hepatitis B.Methods Fluorometric analysis PCR, ELISA were used to estimate the YMDD mutation, HBVDNA quantative level and HBeAg for HBV of 72 cases with chronic hepatitis B before therapy (0 month), and after Lamivudine therapy for 9,12,18 months.Results The YMDD mutation was not observed in these cases before Lamivudine therapy. The mutation was found in 8 cases (11.1%), 17 cases (23.6%) and 28 cases (38.9%) at 9, 12, 18 month for therapy. The YMDD mutation rate rose with the therapy time lasting (P＜0.05). Moreover, the YmDD mutation rate in the patients with HBVDNA quantity higher than 108 copies/ml was significantly higher than that in the patients with HBVDNA quantity lower than 108 copies/ml (P＜0.005). The YMDD variation rate in patients with HBeAg positive and in patients with HBeAg negative showed no significant difference (P＞0.05). The HBeAg negative conversion rate was significantly higher in non-mutation group than that in mutation group (P＜0.05).Conclusion The serum virus quantity may be regard as an early estimate indication of the development of YMDD mutation during Lamivudine therapy.

Objective To investigate the potential role of MCP-1/CCL2 in experimental acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) and complications. Methods 60 SD male rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: sham operation group ( n = 20 ), ANP group ( n = 20 ) and MCP-1 group ( n = 20 ). ANP model was induced by retrograde infusion of 3.5% sodium taurocholate, MCP-1 group received subcutaneous injection of MCP-1 antibody 0 h and 6 h after ANP induction. The serum levels of amylase, MCP-1, D-lactic acid,histological changes and the expression of MCP-1 mRNA of lung, small intestine and pancreas, the expression of MCP-1 protein in pancreas, MPO levels of small intestine MPO were determined. Results The serum levels of amylase, MCP-1, D-lactic acid in MCP-1 group at 12 h were (4666 ±412)U/L, (39.53 ±8.25)pg/ml and (6.3 ±2.2)mg/L, which were significantly lower than those in ANP group [ (9611 ±363)U/L, (63.42 ±9.32) pg/ml, (9.3 ± 2. 1 ) mg/L, P< 0.05 ) ]; the expression of MCP-1 mRNA in pancreas, small intestine and lung were 0.431 ± 0.009, 0. 211 ± 0.018 and 0.442 ± 0.017, which were significantly lower than those in ANP group [ (0.624 ±0. 010, 0. 523 ±0. 019 and 0. 569 ±0. 024, P <0.05) ]; the expression of MCP-1 protein in pancreas was 2.0 ± 0. 1, which was significantly lower than that in ANP group (4. 0 ± 0. 2, P <0.05). Lung and small intestine MPO were (11.1 ±3.0)U/g and ( 19.2 ±2.0)U/g, which were significantly lower than those in ANP group[(39.2±3.1)U/g and(13.1±2.1)U/g, P<0.05]. Conclusions Early blockade of MCP-1 not only attenuates the severity of ANP, but also decreases the degree of acute lung injury and intestine barrier dysfunction.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of the docetaxel combined with nedaplatin or cisplatin in the treatment of patients with advanced head and neck carcinoma.Methods 58 patients with advanced head and neck carcinoma were enrolled into the study.These patients were divided into nedaplatin group (27 patients:docetaxel 75mg/m2 on day 1 and nedaplatin 80mg/m2 on day 1 of the 21-day cycle) and cisplantin group( 31 patients:docetaxel 75mg/m2 on day 1 and cisplatin 25mg/m2 on day 1-3 day of 21-day cycle).Each patient should complete two cycle.Results The response rate in nedaplatin group was 59.2％ and in cisplantin group was 54.8％,the difference was statistically significant between the two groups( P ＞ 0.05 ).The rate of white blood cell and plate let reduction in nedaplatin group was 55.5％,40.7％,respectively,and those in cisplantin group was 51.6％,35.4％,respectively,the difference was statistically significant between the two groups ( call P ＜ 0.05 ).The rate of vomit in nedaplatin group was 29.6％,which was lower than that of cisplantin group (64.5％) ( x2 =4.02,P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion In the treatment of advanced head and neck carcinoma,the combination of docetaxel and nedaplatin had the same efficacy as the combination of docetaxel and cisplatin,and they appeared to be more-tolerated.

The association of serum nesfatin-1 levels with insulin resistance and pancreatic β-cell function in gestational diabetes mellitus was investigated.Oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT) was performed in ninety pregnant women from 24,to 28 gestational weeks.They were divided into three groups according to OGTT:45 nomal controls,27 gestational diabetes mellitus with fasting plasma glucose (FPG) of 5.1 mmol/L to 7.0 mmol/L (GDM1),18 gestational diabetes mellitus with FPG more than 7.0 mmol/L (GDM2).Serum nesfatin-1 levels were significantly higher in patients with GDM1 and GDM2 than in controls (P＜0.01),and in GDM2 group it was also higher than GDM1 group(P＜0.05).Fasting serum nesfatin-1 was positively correlated with FPG,30 min plasma glucose,1 h plasma glucose,2 h plasma glucose,homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance,and PGAUC,but negatively correlated with homeostasis model assessment for β-cell function.Furthermore,multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that FPG was the independent influencing factor of serum nesfatin-1 level.Nesfatin-1 was positively correlated with insulin resistance,while negatively correlated with pancreatic β-cell function.Nesfatin-1 may play a role in the pathogenesis of gestational diabetes mellitus.

BACKGROUND:Choosing an effective means to label and trace the distribution, differentiation and migration of celsin vivo help to further explore the specific mechanism of cels that exert a therapeutic effect. OBJECTIVE:To understand the migration and localization of BrdU-labeled human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cels in brain injury model rats. METHODS:Human umbilical cord blood samples were obtained, and the isolation of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cels was carried out. The primary and passage culture were performed. The phenotype of cels was detected by flow cytometry. Passage 3 human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cels were labeled using BrdU, and the cel proliferation was detected using MTT method. BrdU-labeled cels were injected into brain injury ratsvia the tail vein. At 14 days after transplantation, brain tissues in the injury region were cut into sections and the migration and location of the umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cels were observed under inverted
fluorescence microscope. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Cel surface specific markers CD45 and CD34 were detected by flow cytometry, but the cels could not express CD44, CD105 and CD29. Based on the cel growth curve, the cels came into a conditioning period at 1-3 days of seeding and came into a logarithmic phase at 3-5 days. BrdU-positive cels were visible at the injury region after 14 days, indicating that in the rats, transplanted human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cels migrated from the peripheral blood to the site of brain injury to achieve the effective repair of injured parts.
