Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) is a highly conserved serine/threonine protein kinase that has attracted research attention be-cause it plays a critical role in mitosis regulation. PLK1 is overexpressed in 80%of human tumors, which indicates a poor prognosis in most tumors. PLK1 is one of the most promising targets for antitumor therapy because it is upregulated in castrate-resistant prostate can-cer (CRPC). This review focused on the basic structure and function of PLK1, the relationship between PLK1 and CRPC occurrence and progression, and CRPC treatment by inhibiting PLK1. This study provides a theoretical basis for the targeted molecular therapy of CRPC.

To investigate the psychological difference in abdominal aortic aneurysm patients before and after operation and its influence on life quality, 24 patients who can understand and complete the questionnaire were enrolled in the study, the inquiry was performed after admission and discharge with the standard SCL 90 table. The results showed that the general conditions, depression, anxiety, compulsive symptoms and fear of the patients had marked differences before and after operation. It is concluded that operation of abdominal aortic aneurysm can not only prevent the rupture of aneurysm but also relieve the patients′ psychological pressuer and improve their life quality.

Bacterial colonization is a sign of bacterial infection in the hospital, and the bacterial colonization rate indicates the risk of bacteria infection. Newborn infection happen easily in the hospital. In recent years, sereral researches indicate that vaginal delivery, breastfeeding and probiotics usage and so on can lower the probability of intestinal pathogenic bacteria colonization, which can lower the probability of neonatal enterogenous infection. Therefore, there are many factors that can effect on newborn intestinal bacteria colonization, and because experimental conditions are limitated, so we have many problems to solove in the future.

BACKGROUND: It is well known that central noradrenergic system takes part in learning and memory, but there are a few researches focused on the effects of impairing the central noradrenergic system on rat' s P3-like cognitive potential.OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of impairing the central noradrenergic system on rat's P3-like cognitive potential.DESIGN: Randomized controlled study based on the experimental animals.SETTING: Department of physiology in a medical college of a university.MATERIALS: Totally 30 male SD rats, clean degree, weighing from 500 to 600 g, were selected from the Experimental Animal Center of Sun Yat-sen Medical University(certificate: 26-99A018), drank freely and fed timely under the normal condition. After Y-maze test of all the rats, 24 rats with normal learning and memory function, which met the criteria specified in the description of Y-maze test, were randomly divided into three groups(8 rats in each group): control group, 6-oxidopamine (6-OHDA) injection group and saline control group.INTERVENTIONS: The models of central norndrenergic system impairment were made by injecting 6-hydroxysopamine(6-OHDA) into the bilateral dorsal noradrenergic bundle in dentate granule(DG). Then Y-type maze test and elicitation of P3-likewere carried out respectively before and after the models were built.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Main outcome: P3-like latency, total reaction time(TRT) and error number(EN). Secondary outcome: Results of P3-like test recorded in the 12 days after the models were built.RESULTS: As compared with the controls, the model rats' P3-like latency and total reaction time(TRT) prolonged and error number(EN) increased statistically ( P ＜ 0.05 ).CONCLUSION: Central NE takes part in the activities of learning and memory and plays a certain role in the production and integration of P3 -like.

BACKGROUND:Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) can enhance fibroblast proliferation and col agen deposition, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) can improve blood perfusion and metabolic level of pathological tissues. Additional y, both of them can boost the alkaline phosphatase activity under given conditions. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect of bFGF combined with VEGF on the periodontal ligament fibroblast proliferation and alkaline phosphatase activity in rats. METHODS:Rat periodontal ligament fibroblasts were cultured in vitro, its embryonic origin was identified and passage 4 cel s were used for the fol owing experiments. Effects of bFGF and VEGF with different concentrations on the rat periodontal ligament fibroblast proliferation were detected to determine the minimum and maximum effective concentrations. Cel s were divided into five groups:group A (control group) with DMEM containing 2%fetal bovine serum;group B as maximum effective concentration of VEGF group;group C as maximum effective concentration of bFGF;group D as minimum effective concentration of bFGF combined with minimum effective concentration of VEGF group;group E as maximum effective concentration of bFGF combined with maximum effective concentration of VEGF group. At 3, 7 and 14 days, the alkaline phosphatase activity in each group was detected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Rat periodontal ligament fibroblasts derived from the mesoderm grew wel . Rat periodontal ligament fibroblast proliferation was increased with the VEGF and bFGF concentration increasing (P<0.01). The maximum and minimum effective concentrations of VEGF were 100 and 10μg/L, and the maximum and minimum effective concentrations of bFGF were 10 and 0.1μg/L. The absorbance values in the groups D and E were higher than those in the group A. The absorbance values of the group D were significantly lower than those of the group E at 3 and 7 days (P<0.05), but did not significantly differ at 14 days (P>0.05). To conclude, the combination use of the maximum effective concentration of VEGF and bFGF can play a significant synergistic effect on the alkaline phosphatase activity at a given time, but the minimum and maximum effective concentrations show no significant differences if not in the given time, which may be related to the time-effectiveness of these two factors and the receptors of periodontal ligament cel s.

Objective:To study the mechanism on extracellular signal-regulate kinases ( ERK) signal transduction by calcium influx initiated by combination of estrogen with calcium channels or estrogen re-ceptor in endometrial cancer cell Ishikawa. Methods: Confocal test was used to determine the relative calcium mobilization by stimulation of estrodiol together with and without the inhibition of ICI182780 and nifedipine. Western-blotting was used to detect the protein expression of phosphorylated ERK1/2 (P-ERK1/2) in the same condition. Results:The transient calcium flux initiated by 17β-estrodiol (E2) and a membrane-impermeable conjugate of estrogen and bovine serum albumin ( E2-BSA ) , and the calcium mobilization could be inhibited by ICI182780 and nifedipine in 1 min. In Ishikawa cells, phosphorylation of ERK1/2 was stimulated by E2 , and the phosphorylation could not be inhibited by E2 after the combination with ICI182780 in 5 min and in 30 min. The phosphorylation also could not be in-hibited by E2-BSA after the combination with nifedipine in 5 min, but in 30 min the phosphorylation was decreased. The phosphorylation of ERK by E2-BSA was decreased by the combination with nifedipine in 30 min. Conclusion:The transient calcium flux initiated by estrogen has an effect on the activation of ERK signal pathway in endometrial carcinoma cells.
