Objective To explore the effect of low calorie metabolism on the survival of HeLa cells exposed to X-rays,and the influence of starvation on the antioxidative factors in the blood of rats after irradiation.Methods MTT method was used to evaluate the impact of different concentration glucose on the proliferation of HeLa cells.Colony formation assay was employed to detect the influence of glucose ( 1,5,10 and 25 mmol/L) on radiosensitivity of HeLa cells. Flow cytometry assay was used to analyze distribution of cell cycle and apoptosis.60 male SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups with 10 rats each.Rats in every two groups were fed ad libitum,fasted for 24 h and fasted for 48 h,respectively.Rats in one group of each approach were respectively exposed to whole-body X-rays at 11 Gy. At 2 h after irradiation,all of rats were sacrificed and their venous blood was collected.Elisa kits were used to detect superoxide dismutase (SOD) and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC).Results An increased viability was observed in HeLa cells treated with the glucose at low concentration ( <25 mmol/L),while HeLa cell growth was inhibited by glucose at doses of >25 mmol/L. Relevant to cells treated with 1 mmoL/L glucose,SERs (sensitive enhancement ratio) in cells exposed to 5,10 and 25 mmol/L glucose were 1.07,1.10 and 1.23,respectively. A reduction of G2/M and S arrests and apeptosis caused by 6 Gy X-ray irradiation were observed [(49.68 ±1.88)% and (35.54±1.45)% at G2/M phase,(16.88 ±1.22)% and (10.23 ±1.65)% atS phase,t=10.42,5.61,P<0.05]and in the cells treated with 1 mmol/L glucose compared with cells treated with 25 mmol/L glucose [ ( 25.50 ± 0.95 ) % and (7.56 ± 1.07 ) %,t =21.72,P <0.05 ].Without irradiation,calorie restriction exhibited a negligible influence on SOD and T-AOC in rats.However,after 11 Gy irradiation,compared with rats fed ad libitum,the levels of SOD and T-AOC were significantly increased in rats with calorie restriction ( t =40.32,42.78, P < 0.05 ).Conclusions Calorie restriction has a certain radioprotective effect in vivo and in vitro.

The CrdS protein responding to the acidic adaptation was prokaryotic-expressed in our Laboratory to explore the regulatory mechanism in the acidic adaptation of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). The whole genomic DNA of H. pylori strain 26695 was abstracted and set as the template firstly. And then the hp1364 gene coding CrdS protein was amplified via the PCR technique. Then the clonal recombinant plasmid pUCm-T-hp1364 and the prokaryotic expression plasmid pQE30-hp1364 were built and identified by the methods of PCR, cutting with two enzymes and sequencing. After that, the plasmid pQE30-hp1364 was transferred into the E. coli XL1 blue and induced with IPTG. Using western blot and SDS-PAGE, it can be analyzed that the expressed recombinant protein existed mainly in the form of the inclusion bodies and its relative molecular mass was about 46 kDa. The successfully attained recombinant protein CrdS will provide the material to explore the regulatory mechanism in the acidic adaptation of H. pylori and the new way to resist the infection of H. pylori.

BACKGROUND: Cytogenetic evidence suggests that chromosomal alteration are not randomly occurring events and some malignancies are characterized by specific chromosome abnormalities, which provides cytogenetic basis for the expression of oncogenes.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the characteristics of chromosomal karyotype and marker chromosome of breast cancer cell lines Bcap-37and MCF-7 by means of G-banding chromosomal analysis.DESIGN: A controlled experiment with breast cancer cells as observation subjects.SETTING: Department of Medical Genetics, Peking University Health Science Center.MATERIALS: This study was carried out in the Department of Medical Genetics of Peking University Health Science Center from April 1991 to May 1992 using breast cancer cell lines MCF-7 and Bcap-37.METHODS: The chromosomes of human breast cancer cell lines Bcap-37and MCF-7 were obtained by growth synchronization induced by hypothermia and colchicines treatment. The cells at prometaphase or metaphase underwent G-banding chromosomal analysis. For each cell line, 50 to 60 mitotic figures were counted and 15 or 16 G-binding karyotypes were analyzed, including the mitotic figure at the level of about 320- and 500-band .MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Abnormality in chromosome number and structural aberration of the two breast cancer cell lines.RESULTS:The modal chromosomal number of Bcap-37 cell line was 63, of which 17 marker chromosomes had identifiable structure, as compared with 13 out of 56 chromosomes in modal number of MCF-7 cell line.CONCLUSION: Both of the two breast cancer cell lines have complex cytogenetic abnormality in the modal number and structure of the chromosomes, which might result in the rearrangement of DNA sequence of the cancer-related genes or DNA depletion, so as to play important roles in the pathogenesis and development of breast cancer.

Objective To study the effect of sanguinarine on the growth and radiosensitivity of ovarian cancer SK-OV-3 cells.Methods Cell growth was determined by MTT and clonogenic assay.Cell cycle analysis was performed by flow cytometry assay.The cell apoptosis was analyzed by Annexin V/PI assay.Results Sanguinarine inhibited SK-OV-3 cell growth in a dose-and time-dependent fashion and its IC50 values were 3.02 and 1.11 μmol/L at 24 and 48 h,respectively. Sanguinarine also significantly triggered a sub-G1 peak,an indicator of apoptosis,and caused a G0/G1 arrest.Furthermore,the cell apoptosis induced by X-irradiation was significantly increased at 6 Gy when the cells were pre-treated with sanguinarine,in which the early apoptotic population increased from 10.28% to 43.28% (t =19.41,P <0.01 ) and the late apoptotic population increased from 20.26% to 30.80% ( t =8.78,P < 0.01 ).The multi-target click model was used to fit survival curves and the SER of sanguinarine treatment approached to 1.625 at the dose of D0. Conclusions Sanguinarine could inhibit SK-OV-3 cell growth by inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest and enhance cell radiosensitivity at low doses.
