Objective:This study aimed to investigate the effects and the molecular mechanism of JNJ-7706621 on cell cycle and apoptosis of breast cancer cell lines. Methods:Breast cancer cell lines T47D and MDA-MB-231 were cultured in vitro and treated with JNJ-7706621 at varying concentrations. MTT assay was used to measure cell proliferation. Flow cytometry was applied to analyze the distribution of cell cycle and apoptotic rates. Western blot was performed to analyze the expression of cyclin B1-CDK, the phosphoryla-tion levels of CDK1Thr161 and CDK1Tyr15, as well as the expression of p53, Bcl-2, caspase3 and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). Results:JNJ-7706621 inhibited the proliferation of the T47D and MDA-MB-231 cells in a dose-and time-dependent manner. Flow cytometry showed that the T47D and the MDA-MB-231 cells in the G2/M-phase significantly increased after treatment at varying concentrations (0, 1, 2, 4μM) of JNJ-7706621:the G2/M-phase rates at the corresponding concentrations were (12.66±1.55)%, (20.63± 1.32)%, (23.20±1.82)%, and (32.19±2.37)%, respectively, for the T47D cells (P<0.05), and the G2/M-phase rates were (16.22±1.48)%, (21.45±0.85)%, (25.25±1.26)%, and (31.08±1.16)%, respectively, for the MDA-MB-231 cells (P<0.05). The rates of apoptotic cells were also significantly increased (P<0.05). Western blot results indicated that JNJ-7706621 exerted a slight effect on the expression of CDK1 and p53 and that the phosphorylation level of CDK1 decreased at the Thr161 site but increased at the Tyr15 site. In addition, cleaved caspase3 and PARP increased, whereas Bcl-2 and cyclinB1 decreased significantly. Conclusion:JNJ-7706621 can significantly inhibit the proliferation of breast cancer cell lines T47D and MDA-MB-231 by inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, which may be associated with the downregulation of the CDK1 phosphorylation at the Thr161 site.

OBJECTIVE:To study the inhibitory effect of dihydrotanshinone(DTS)on human lung cancer GLC-82 cell and its mechanism. METHODS:After treated with 0(blank control),5,10,20,40,80 and 100 μg/ml DTS for 24 and 48 h,MTT as-say was used to measure the inhibition rates and IC50 of cells;cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry after treated with 17.85 μg/ml DTS for 12,24 and 48 h to calculate apoptotic rate;Western blot was used to detect the protein expressions of Bcl-2, Bax and Caspase-3. RESULTS:Compared with blank control group,different concentrations of DTS inhibited the proliferation of cells;24 and 48 h maximal inhibition rate were 54.48% and 64.95%,respectively;IC50 were 62.36 and 33.94 μg/ml. DTS could induce cell apoptosis in positive time dependent manner,and the range of inhibition rate was 5.6%-29.6%;Western blot showed DTS could down-regulate the expression of Bcl-2 protein and up-regulate the expression of Caspase-3 protein (P<0.01 or P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:DTS have significant inhibitory effect on GLC-82 cells and also induce cell apoptosis,by a possible mech-anism of down-regulating the expression of Bcl-2 protein and up-regulating the expression of Caspase-3 protein.

Objective To retrospectively analyze the treatment results and side effects of postoperative chemoradiotherapy and postoperative radiotherapy of thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (EPC) with positive lymph nodes.Methods Three hundred and four patients of thoracic EPC were initially treated with three-field lymphadenectomy, with pathological positive lymph nodes and without distant metastases;and randomly divided into two groups:140 patients of the simple postoperative radiotherapy (RT) and 164 patients of postoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT).The median total dose was 50 Gy.The regimen of concurrent chemotherapy included cisplatin and taxol, and the intermission was 21 days;the median cycles were 2.35.Results The 3-year overall survival rates were 65.7% of CRT and 52.8% of RT (χ2=6.90,P=0.009), and The 3-year disease-free survival rates were 62.5% of CRT and 52.8% of RT (χ2=4.75,P=0.029).The incidences of the supraclavicular lymph-node metastases were 1.8% and 7.1%(χ2=5.21,P=0.022), respectively;and the incidences of distant metastases were 18.3% and 27.9%(χ2=3.94,P=0.047), respectively;and the incidences of overall metastases and recurrences were 27.4% and 39.3%(χ2=4.80,P=0.028), respectively.Early side effects included granulopenia (96.3% and 32.1%,χ2=140.31,P=0.000), radiation-induced esophagitis (37.2% and 26.4%,χ2=4.01,P=0.045),and gastrointestinal toxicity (23.2% and 5.0%,χ2=19.77,P=0.000).Late side effects were 6.1% and 5.0%(χ2=0.17,P=0.678), respectively.Conclusions Postoperative chemoradiotherapy of thoracic EPC with positive lymph nodes can improve the overall survival and disease-free survival, decrease the incidence of the supraclavicular metastases, the distant metastases, the total metastases and recurrences.More severe early side effects were observed in chemoradiotherapy than in the radiotherapy group,but well tolerated.

Objective To investigate the effect of L-carnitine (LCNT) combined with epirubicin (EPI) on cell proliferation and apoptosis of two lung adenocarcinoma cell lines (GLC-82 and A549). Methods GLC-82 and A549 cells were divided into control group, EPI group, LCNT group and EPI+LCNT group, respectively. The cell proliferation rate was examined by MTT assay 24 h after the treatment, and the cell cycle and cell early apoptosis were analyzed by flow cytometry. The expression of P53 and Bcl-2 proteins were detected by Western Blot. Results Compared with the control group, the proliferation rate of GLC-82 and A549 cells was 37.56％(P<0.01) and 6.32％(P>0.05) after 24 hours of 20.00μg/ml LCNT treatment indicating LCNT could promote the proliferation of GLC-82 cells. Compared with the EPI group, EPI+LCNT had smaller inhibitory effect on the proliferation of GLC-82 cells, and the inhibition rate of the EPI+LCNT group was 12.14％lower than that of EPI group (P<0.05). Compared with the EPI group, EPI+LCNT could significantly increase the G0/G1 phase ratio of GLC-82 cells (50.42％±1.21％vs. 25.94％± 0.66％, P<0.01) and A549 cells (54.92％±1.71％vs. 38.63％±0.69％, P<0.01), decrease the S phase ratio of GLC-82 cells (34.21％±0.96％vs. 59.68％±1.25％, P<0.05), and prevent the early apoptosis of GLC-82 cells without affecting apoptosis of A549 cells. Moreover, in the EPI+LCNT group, the expression of P53 protein in GLC-82 and A549 cells was down-regulated (P<0.05), and the expression of Bcl-2 protein in GLC-82 cells was up-regulated (P<0.01) and no significant change in A549 cells (P>0.05). Conclusions Comparing with the EPI, the combination of LCNT and EPI has less proliferation inhibition and apoptosis induction on GLC-82 cells, and without significant effect on A549 cells. LCNT can promote the proliferation of GLC-82 cells and block the cell cycle at G0/G1 phase. This mechanism may be related to down-regulation of P53 protein and up-regulation of Bcl-2 protein expression.

Objective To evaluate the effects of remifentanil (RMF)on large conductance cal-cium-activated potassium channel (BKCa)and voltage-gated potassium channel (KV)activition currents in basilar arterial smooth muscle cells (BASMCs)of normotensive and hypertensive rats. Methods Spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR)and homologous normotensive wistar-kyoto (WKY)rats,were used in this study.BASMCs were obtained freshly by the method of enzymolysis. Six basilar artery smooth muscle cells of each rat were chosen and analyzed.Outward current ampli-tude was recorded by the whole-cell patch clamp technique.The outward current amplitude under all stimulation voltage in set of step stimulation protocol before (basal level)and after administration of RMF (3×10-7mol/L)were recorded respectively and net current was calculated (net current=cur-rent amplitude after administration-basic value).With administration by concentrations cumulative method,the current amplitude under +60 mV stimulation voltage was separately recorded before (basic value)and after application of different concentrations of RMF (10-10,10-9,10-8,10-7, 10-6,10-5mol/L),then calculated current increasing rate and the half effective concentration (EC50)of RMF increasing current amplitude in BASMCs.Another six basilar artery smooth muscle cells of each rat were chosen and given RMF (3×10-7mol/L),and separately treated with BKCa channel blocker (tetraethylammonium,TEA)and Kv channel blocker (4-aminopyridine,4-AP),and then administrated the corresponding RMF mixture.The current amplitude was recorded after each dose.Results At 0,+20,+40 and +60 mV,the net current generated by RMF on both BASMCs of rats was successively and significantly increased (P <0.05).The increment rate of outward currents in BASMCs generated by 10-10,10-9,10-8,10-7RMF successively and significantly went upward (P<0.05).Compared to WKY rats,the half-effective concentration(EC50)of RMF increas-ing the current amplitude in BASMCs of SHR significantly rose(P<0.05).Compared with the base-line,the current amplitude in BASMCs of the two kind rats was significantly increased after adminis-tration of RMF,and decreased after administration of TEA or 4-AP (P<0.05);Compared to ad-ministration of TEA or 4-AP,the current amplitude in BASMCs of the two kind rats was significantly in-creased after administration of TEA+RMF or 4-AP+RMF (P<0.05).Conclusion Bkcaand Kv currents in both BASMCs of SHR and WKY rats were activated by RMF in a voltage-dependent and dose-dependent manner,and the effect of RMF on BKCaand Kvactivition currents in BASMCs of SHR was weaker than WKY rats.
