Based on the report of previous clinical study which showed cholinergic receptor antagonist scopolamine had antidepressant activity, this study was to investigate the antidepressant activity of scopolamine and explore its effective dose in mice, and to evaluate the effect of scopolamine on the central nervous system and learning/memory ability at its antidepressant effective dose. Tail suspension test, forced swimming test, step-down passive avoidance test and open field test were used to evaluate its effects on mice. Compared with the vehicle control group, single-dose administration of scopolamine (0.1-0.4 mg x kg(-1), ip) significantly decreased the immobility time (P < 0.01 or P < 0.001) in tail suspension test, and significantly decreased the immobility time (P < 0.001) in forced swimming test, but had no effect on the step-down latency and errors in step-down passive avoidance test. Scopolamine (0.1 and 0.2 mg x kg(-1), ip) had no influence on the locomotor activity in open field test, while at dose of 0.4 mg x kg(-1) significantly increase the locomotor activity. These results showed that scopolamine produced reliable antidepressant effect at doses of 0.1 and 0.2 mg x kg(-1), without impairment on learning and memory, as well as excitory or inhibitory effect on central nervous system in mice.

The etiology of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is still not very clear.Epigenetics is proved to play an important role in the occurrence and development of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).Detection of epigenetics can serve as molecular index of NPC,and it is advantageous to the prognosis and disease of NPC.Different intervention measures in the epigenetics can be used as a new treatment of NPC,as well as the development of new NPC radiotherapy sensitization agent and new drugs.Study of epigenetics changes in nasopharyngeal carcinoma provides a new idea for the diagnosis and treatment in NPC and so on.

BACKGROUND:Human leukocyte antigen F-associated transcription factor 10 (FAT10) is highly expressed in many tumor cel s like colon cancer cel s, but its relationship with esophageal cancer is less reported. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of siRNA interference technique on the invasion, apoptosis and the characteristics of EC9706 cel s, a human esophageal cancer cel line. METHODS:siRNA sequence was designed and synthesized according to the FAT10 mRNA encoding sequence, and the EC9706 cel s were transiently transfected. EC9706 cel s were divided into three groups:siRNA FAT10 group, negative control group, and blank control group. The expression levels of bcl-2 and FAT10 were detected by RT-PCR and western blot assay, respectively. Cel counting kit-8 assay was used to measure the proliferation of cel s in vitro. Flow cytometry was used to observe the changes of cel cycle, cel apoptosis and the expression of CD44+CD133+. TUNEL staining was used to detect the apoptosis of the cel s. Cel invasion in vitro was detected by Transwel invasion assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:RT-PCR and western blot findings showed that compared with the negative control group and blank control group, the expression levels of bcl-2 and FAT10 mRNA and protein were significantly decreased in the siRNA FAT10 group (P<0.05);the percentage of CD44+CD133+cel s was decreased significantly (P<0.05);and significantly increased apoptosis rate, and decreased cel proliferation and invasion were also found in the siRNA FAT10 group (P<0.05). In conclusion, the specific silencing of FAT10 gene can reduce the invasion of esophageal cancer cel s, inhibit cel proliferation, reduce bcl-2 expression, and increase the apoptosis rate. Meanwhile, the proportion of CD44+CD133+cel s is decreased.

BACKGROUND:Treatment after intracerebral hemorrhage can effectively suppress immune function. The immune suppression after ischemic stroke has been studied in detail.
OBJECTIVE:To construct an immunosuppressed rat model after cerebral hemorrhage, and assess its stability.
METHODS:Sixty Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group, sham group, and cerebral hemorrhage group, with 20 rats in each group. Rat models of acute cerebral hemorrhage were established by 50μL arterial blood injection in the rat basal ganglia. Rats in the sham group were injected with 50μL of saline, and the operation was identical to cerebral hemorrhage model. Rats in the control group received no treatment. At 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours after model establishment, leukocytes, lymphocytes, and lymphocyte percentage were analyzed by blood analyzer. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was used to determine the levels of serum proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 and anti-inflammatory cytokine transforming growth factorβin rats. Dissected rat spleen tissue was subjected to histological and histopathological detection. RT-PCR and western blotting were utilized to measure changes in transforming growth factorβ, interleukin-6 gene and protein expression in the spleen.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Compared with the sham group and control group, leukocyte number was significantly higher, but lymphocyte percentage gradual y reduced in the cerebral hemorrhage group at 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours (P<0.05). (2) Compared with the sham group and control group, interleukin-6 levels in the blood and spleen were higher at 24 hours, peaked at 72 hours, and decreased at 96 hours in the cerebral hemorrhage group (P<0.05). (3) Compared with the sham group and control group, transforming growth factorβexpression was lower at 24 hours, gradual y increased at 72 hours, and higher at 96 hours in the rat blood and spleen of the cerebral hemorrhage group (P<0.05). (4) These findings indicate that immune function excitement first appeared after cerebral hemorrhage, and immune suppression appeared at 96 hours, indicating successful model establishment and good stability.
