Objective The gene expression profile of gallbladder stone and gallbladder polyp were analyzed by high-throughput sequencing technology to explore the roles of the gene in the development of gallstone and their molecular mechanism in the occurrence and development of gallbladder stone. Methods 7 patients with gallstones and 2 patients with gallbladder polyp was enrolled for RNA-Seq. Results 150 DEGs was identified between gallstones and gallbladder polyps. We found GO terms for molecular functions significantly enriched in antigen binding, while for biological processes, the enriched GO terms were immune response, and for cellular component, the enriched GO terms were extracellular region. The most significant pathway in our KEGG analysis was Cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction (P = 0.000). Conclusion This present study suggests some promising genes may provide a clue to the role of these genes played in the development of gallstones and gallbladder polyps.

Objective To study the correlation of CT perfusion imaging ( CTPI) of induced rat breast cancer with tumor pathological grade and microvascular density ( MVD) ,and the diagnostic value of CTPI for breast cancer. Methods Breast cancer was induced in 35 Wister male rats with intragastric 7,12-dimethyl-1,2-benzanthracene ( DMBA) treatment. Routine breast CT scanning and CTPI were performed. After processed at a workstation,CTPI parameters were obtained including blood flow ( BF) ,blood volume ( BV) ,mean transit time ( MTT) ,permeability surface ( PS) ,and time density curve ( TDC). The rats were sacrificed and breast tumor tisue samples were collected. Breast tumor tisue samples were stained with HE and factor Ⅷ-related antigen immunohistochemistry to observe the pathological type and MVD of tumor. Results Breast tumor was successfully induced in 30 rats ( including 8 with breast hyperplasia and 22 with breast cancer). The BF and BV were higher in rats with breast cancer than in those with breast hyperplasia 151. 72 ? 93. 43 vs 42. 96 ? 32. 42 ml/( min.100 g) ,9. 55 ? 7. 88 vs 2. 17 ? 1. 36 ml/100 g,P 0. 05). The positive correlation of MVD with BF,BV and PS was increased with the decreased tumor differentiation with a correlation coefficient of 0. 701,0. 441 and 0. 521,respectively ( P

To observe the chelation of GRP78 with lead (Pb) and its localization changes, astroglial cells from Wistar rat brain were primarily cultured in medium with acetate Pb. The processes were terminated at different time points. The immunoprecipitation (IP) and Western blotting were used for GRP78 purification and expression and the Pb concentration was determined by employing atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS). The localization change of GRP78 was observed with colloid gold immunoelectron microscopy. The results showed that the expression of GRP78 was increased significantly in the cells treated with 1.0 mumol/L acetate Pb for 24 h and peaked at 96-192 h (P<0.01), and at the 12th day, the expression of GRP78 began to decrease but was still higher than normal (P<0.05). Pb content started to increase when cells were treated by acetate Pb for 24 h, and the peak appeared at 8 day (P<0.01), and then Pb content decreased gradually, but was still higher than normal (P<0.05). GRP78 protein expression began to remarkably increase when it transferred from ER to the cytosol around the nuclei 24 h after treatment with Pb. It is concluded that GRP78 in astroglia could strongly chelate with Pb ions and it might be a target protein of Pb.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of total paeony glycoside (TPG) on the expression of tumor suppressor gene in lung cancer model rats. METHODS:90 rats were randomly divided into normal group,model group,positive control group [cyclophosphamide,50 mg/(kg·d)] and TPG low-dose,medium-dose and high-dose groups [50,100,200 mg/(kg·d)] with 15 rates in each group. Except for normal group,other groups were given disposable infusion of carcinogenic iodized oil via left lobe bronchus to induce lung cancer model. After modeling,those groups were given relevant medicine intravenously from Monday to Friday,while normal group and model group were given constant volume of normal saline intravenously for consecutive 16 weeks. The expression of multidrug resistance associated protein(MRP),human multidrug resistance gene(MDR1),P21 and P16 mRNA in lung tissue of rats were determined by RT-PCR;the expression of P53 protein in lung cancer tissue was determined by IHC method.The rate of positive expression was calculated,and pathological change of lung tissue was observed. RESULTS:Com-pared with normal group,the expression of MRP,MDR1,P21,P16 mRNA and P53 protein(positive rate of 66.67%)in lung tis-sue was increased significantly in model group (P<0.05);compared with model group,the expression of MRP,MDR1,P21, P16 mRNA and P53 protein (positive rate of 46.67%,46.67%,40.00%,13.33%) decreased in positive control group,TPG low-dose,medium-dose and high-dose groups in dose-dependent manner,and the decrease of TPG medium-dose and high-dose groups were more significant than that of positive control group (P<0.05);there was statistical significance in above indexes among TPG groups(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:TPG could inhibit the expression of MRP,MDR1,P21,P16 gene and P53 pro-tein in lung cancer model rats significantly.

Objective To investigate the correlation between histone deacetylase 1(HDAC1) and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) in the patients with lung adenocarcinoma.Methods Eighty cases of lung adenocarcinoma in our hospital from August 2014 to April 2016 served as the research subjects,and contemporaneous 80 individuals undergoing healthy physical examination were taken as the control group.The fasting venous blood sample was collected in all subjects.Then serum HDAC1 and VEGF levels were detected by ELISA.The differences of serum HDAC1 and VEGF expression levels were compared between the two groups.The HDAC1 and VEGF expression levels in the patients with different characteristics of lung adenocarcinoma and the relation between serum HDAC1 and VEGF concentrations were analyzed.Furthermore the possible influence factors of HDAC1 protein expression level in the patients with lung adenocarcinoma were analyzed.Results The HDAC1 levels in the control group and observation group were(329.56 ± 23.83) ng/L and(568.20 ± 35.40) ng/L,the difference was statistically significant(t=23.576,P=0.000).The VEGF levels in the control group and observation group were(40.26±9.82)ng/L and(296.56±19.80)ng/L respec tively,the difference was statistically significant(t=31.154,P=0.000).The HDAC1 protein level had statistical difference among different genders,ages,clinical stages and smoking history,the HDAC1 protein level in male,age >60 years old,clinical stage Ⅲ,V and patients with smoking history were higher(P<0.05).The Pearson correlation analysis results showed that serum HDAC1 in the patients with lung adenocarcinoma was positively correlated with VEGF protein concentration(r=0.526,P =0.000).The Logistic regression analysis showed that influence factor of HDAC1 protein expression level in the patients with lung adenocarcinoma was clinical stage.Conclusion The high expression of HDAC1 protein in lung adenocarcinoma patients may also simultaneously regulate the VEGF expression,thus promotes the development of lung adenocarcinoma.
