To study the cartilage differentiation of mouse mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) induced by cartilage-derived morphogenetic proteins-2 in vitro, the MSCs were isolated from mouse bone marrow and cultured in vitro. The cells in passage 3 were induced into chondrogenic differentiation with different concentrations of recombinant human cartilage-derived morphogenetic proteins-2 (0, 10, 20, 50 and 100 ng/mL). After 14 days of induction, morphology of cells was observed under phase-contrast microscope. Collagen II mRNA and protein were examined with RT-PCR, Western blotting and immunocytochemistry respectively and the sulfate glycosaminoglycan was measured by Alcian blue staining. RT-PCR showed that CDMP-2 could promote expression of collagen II mRNA in an dose-dependant manner, especially at the concentration of 50 ng/mL and 100 ng/mL. Immunocytochemistry and Western blotting revealed a similar change. Alcian blue staining exhibited deposition of typical cartilage extracellular matrix. Our results suggest that mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells can differentiate into chondrogenic phonotype with the induction of CDMP-2 in vitro, which provides a basis for further research on the role of CDMP-2 in chondrogenesis.

ObjectiveLoss-of-function mutation of p53,a tumor suppressor gene,is an important mechanism for the development of human cancers.In this study we tried to transfect p53N15-based fusion peptide into H1299,a lung cancer cell line,and evaluate the anti-tumor effects of the fusion peptide.MethodsAdeno-associated virus ( AAV) vectors were used for transfecting p53N15 fusion peptide into p53-null lung adenocarcinoma H1299 cells.The anti-replication effects of p53N15 fusion peptide were evaluated with inverted microscopy,MTT test for cell viability and flow cytometry.ResultsFusion peptides in H1299 cells was highly expressed and had detectable suppressive effects on cell proliferation.A large amount of dead cells were seen under microscope after the transfection of recombinant viruses for 72 hours.Cells activity was reduced significantly in the virus-transfecting groups as demonstrated by MTT test.The flow cytometry showed that a large number of dead cells were present in the virus-transfecting groups.ConclusionThe growth of H1299 lung adenocarcinoma cells could be inhibited in vitro by being transfected with p53N15 fusion peptide,which may be a potential gene therapy alone or as an adjuvant option in the treatment of lung cancer.

Objective To investigate the short term effect of gastric bypass surgery for the treatment of nonobese type 2 diabetes mellitus and possible mechanisms. Methods The clinical data of 58 patients with nonobese type 2 diabetes mellitus who received gastric bypass surgery from March to August, 2009 were retrospectively analyzed. The levels of fasting plasms glucose (FPG), 2-hour postprandial plasma glucose (2h PG) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were dynamically monitored, and the insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) and body mass index ( BMI) were calculated. All data were analyzed using variance of analysis and LSD test. Results Of the 58 patients, 48 (83% ) met the requirement of complete response criteria and stopped administration of hypoglycemic agents; 7( 12% ) had to use hypoglycemic agents, but the dose of the agents was lowered by 50% compared to that before surgery. The surgery was ineffective in 3 patients (5% ). The levels of FPG, 2h PG, HbAlc and HOMA-IR of the 58 patients showed a significant decreasing trend after surgery when compared to those before surgery (F = 67. 867, 50. 885, 78. 278, 572. 757, P <0.05), while there was no significant change of the BMI after surgery ( F = 3. 503, P > 0. 05 ). Conclusions Gastric bypass surgery has a good effect on nonobese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus whose BMI was less than 25 kg/m2. The improvement of insulin resistance after the surgery might be the main reason.

Objective To investigate the expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in astrecytomas, as well as the correlation between them. Methods The expression of COX-2, EGFR and PCNA were respectively detected by immunohistochmical (S-P) method in 68 astrocytomas and 5 cases normal brain tissue. Proliferation index (PI) was calculated and the correlation of COX-2, EGFR and PI was analyzed. Results COX-2 and EGFR were negative expression in normal brain tissue. The positive expression rate of COX-2 and EGFR in high grade astrocytomas was significantly higher than that in low grade astrocytomas(73.53% vs 44. 18% ,67.65% vs 38.24%, P <0. 01 ), and the PI was significantly higher than that in low grade astrocytumas as well as normal brain tissue(46.11 ± 10. 68vs 23. 04±6. 25,4. 52±0. 95, P <0. 01 ). The PI in COX-2 positive group was higher than that in negative group( P <0. 01 ). The positive expression rate of COX-2 in the group with EGFR positive expression was higher than that in the negative group. Conclusions The expression of COX-2 and EGFR was related to pathological feature of astrocytomas. COX-2 may promote the proliferation of tumor cells. There was a static correlation between the expression of EGFR and COX-2 in astrocytomas. EGFR signal transduction probably modulated the expression of COX-2 in astrocytomas cells.

Background:CpG island methylator phenotype(CIMP)involving tumor suppressor gene( TSG)on short arm of chromosome 3(chromosome 3p)has been found in various types of cancers. However,its correlation with gastric cancer has not been clarified. Aims:To study the clinical significance of CIMP involving TSG on chromosome 3p in gastric cancer. Methods:Methylation specific PCR(MSP)was used to examine methylation profiles for hOGG1,VHL,RAR-B, hMLH1,SEMA3B,RASSF1A,BLU and FHIT harbored in chromosome 3p in 100 gastric cancer and paired paracancerous tissues. High CIMP( CIMP-H)was referred for those samples having four or more synchronously methylated genes. Relationship between CIMP-H and clinicopathological characteristics in gastric cancer was analyzed. Results:Positive methylation rates of VHL(P = 0. 030),hMLH1(P < 0. 001),SEMA3B(P = 0. 003),RASSF1A(P < 0. 001)and FHIT(P < 0. 001)were significantly higher in gastric cancer tissue than in paracancerous tissue. Incidence of CIMP-H rate in gastric cancer tissue was significantly higher than that in paracancerous tissue(44. 0% vs. 4. 0% ,P < 0. 001). CIMP-H was negatively correlated with degree of tumor differentiation(P = 0. 004),and positively correlated with lymph node metastasis(P = 0. 005),but not correlated with gender,age,tumor location,tumor size,depth of infiltration and TNM staging(P > 0. 05). Conclusions:CIMP on chromosome 3p may occur in early stage of oncogenesis of gastric cancer,and influencing tumor differentiation and lymph node metastasis.

OBJECTIVE:To study the purification technology of 4 active components from Tripterygium wilfordii by macropo-rous resin. METHODS:The purification abilities of nine macroporous resins(ADS-5,ADS-8,HPD100,HPD300,HPD400, HPD450,HPD700,HPD722 and HPD750) were studied with the adsorption and desorption rates of triptolide,wilforlide,trip-tonide and tripterine as the index by static adsorption and desorption experiments for 4 active components from T. wilfordii,so as to screen optimal macroporous resins. Using transfer rate of active component as index,single factor test was used to investigate the effects of different sampling method,ratio of mixing sample to total resin quantity,ratio of resin to medicinal material,cleaning so-lution(type,amount and cleaning flow rate),diameter- height ratio of resins,eluant(volume,flow rate)on adsorption,so as to determine the optimal elution technology;validation test was also conducted. RESULTS:HPD722 macroporous resin was chosen as adsorption resin;ratio of diameter to height was 1∶10,resin-medicinal material ratio was 1∶2,and ratio of mixing sample to to-tal resin quantity was 1∶10;wet column installing and mixing resin for sample loading were adopted. The macroporous resin was washed with 12 BV 20%ethanol at the rate of 12 BV/h,and then eluted with 12 BV 95%ethanol at the rate of 6 BV/h. The verifi-cation test results showed that the total transfer rate of 4 active components from T. wilfordii was more than 90%(RSD=0.99%, n=3). CONCLUSIONS:The optimized technology is stable and feasible,and suitable for the purification of 4 active components from T. wilfordii.
