SDF-1α, a ligand for the chemokine receptor CXCR4, is well known for mediating the migration of breast cancer cells. In a previous study we demonstrated that a synthetic 21-mer peptide antagonist of CXCR4 (NT21MP) derived from the viral macrophage inflammatory protein II could antagonize tumor growth in vivo by inhibiting cellular proliferation and inducing apoptosis in breast cancer cells. However, the role of SDF-1α in the signaling pathways underlying the proliferation of human breast cancer cells and associated signaling pathways and inhibiting signal pathways of NT21MP remained unclear. The present study investigated the mechanism of NT21MP on anti-tumor in breast cancer in vitro. The effect of NT21MP on the viability of cells was determined by the MTT assay. Annexin V-FITC and PI staining was performed to detect early stage apoptosis in SKBR3 cells treated with SDF-1α and AMD3100 or NT21MP. Western blotting techniques were used to assay the composition of phosphoproteomics and total proteins present in the SKBR3 breast cancer cells. RT-PCR and Western blotting technique were used to detect the effect of NT21MP and AMD3100 on Bcl-2 and Bax expression. The results indicated that SDF-1α prevented apoptosis and promoted the proliferation of SKBR3 human breast cancer cells. As compared with untreated SKBR3 cells, Treatment with SDF-1α significantly increased cell viability, and NT21MP abolished the protective effects of SDF-1α dose-dependently (P<0.05). There was a significant decrease in the percentage of apoptotic cells after SDF-1α treatment as compared with control group (2.7%±0.2% vs. 5.7%±0.4%, P<0.05). But pretreatment of SKBR3 cells with NT21MP significantly attenuated the antiapoptotic effects of SDF-1α as compared with SKBR3 cells without NT21MP pretreatment. The proliferative and anti-apoptotic effects of SDF-1α in SKBR3 cells were associated with an increase in AKT and ERK1/2 phosphorylation as well as a decrease in Bax expression and an increase in Bcl-2 expression. These changes in intracellular processes were blocked by NT21MP in a dose-dependent manner(P<0.05). In conclusion, NT21MP efficiently inhibits SDF-1α-induced proliferation and antiapoptosis in SKBR3 cells by reducing the levels of phosphorylated AKT and ERK1/2, as well as decreasing the ratio of expression of Bcl-2 relative to Bax.

BACKGROUND:Deep vein thrombosis occurred during waiting period before operation affects the prognosis of calcaneal fractures. Therefore, it has important clinical significance for its accurate diagnosis. The staging of thrombosis during waiting period before operation for calcaneal fractures is rarely reported. OBJECTIVE:To detect the incidence and risk factors of deep vein thrombosis in patients with calcaneal fracture by ultrasound elastography imaging after staging diagnosis of thrombosis. METHODS:Al objects were included in the study from patients with calcaneal fractures waiting for surgery in the Qinghai University Affiliated Hospital between 2008 and 2015. Patients received preoperative duplex ultrasonography. Those with thrombosis received ultrasound elastography. The incidence of thrombosis was calculated. According to medical records, age, sex, body mass index and history of smoking were col ected. The correlation between thrombosis and above factors was analyzed by multiple Logistic regression analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) One hundred and forty-nine patients were final y included. Of these, 22 (14.8%) were found to affect deep vein thrombosis in the lower limb. The incidence of acute thrombosis was 9.4%. (2) Multiple Logistic regression analysis suggested that age (P=0.009, OR=1.063, 95%confidence interval (CI) 1.010–1.117), body mass index (P=0.019, OR=1.302, 95%CI 1.124–1.430), history of smoking (P=0.017, OR=5.124, 95%CI 1.347-18.359), and operation waiting time (P=0.000, OR=5.190, 95%CI 1.396–19.266) were risk factors of acute lower extremity deep venous thrombosis. (3) These results suggest that the incidences of preoperative deep vein thrombosis and acute deep vein thrombosis are very high. The risk assessment of acute deep vein thrombosis should be taken according to the patient’s age, smoking history, body mass index, as wel as the time waiting for surgery. The corresponding diagnosis and treatment program should be given to patients with thrombosis.

Objective To investigate the differences between subjective and objective sleep quality in recurrent depressive patients and the correlative factors. Methods Thirty-two cases of recurrent depressive patients(the recurrent group) and 32 cases of first episode depressive patients(the control group)who met the inclusion were recruited in this study. The subjectivesleep quality ,mood and objective sleep quality of patients were estimated by Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI),Hamilton anxiety Scale(HAMA),Hamilton depression Scale(HAMD),respectively. O ne whole-night polysomnography (PSG) was recorded. Results On subjec-tivesleep quality,the total sleep time was shorter,the sleep latency was longer,and the sleep efficiency was lower in the recurrent group compared with the control group. On objectivesleep quality ,the wake times were increased , the NREM1 phase was longer,the NREM2 phase was shorter,the RME phase was longer,the proportion of REM phase was increased,and the latency of REM phase was shorter in the recurrent group compared with the control group(P<0.05,respectively). There were significant differences between the subjective and objective sleep quali-ty in both groups,while the differences in the recurrent group were more significant(P < 0.01). In the recurrent group,thedifference of the total time between the subjective and objective sleep was positively correlated with PSQI score,the duration of disease and the number of attacks(P < 0.05),while,the differences of the sleep latency and sleep efficiency between the subjective and objective sleep were both positively correlated withPSQI score and the HAMA-14 score,respectively(P<0.05). Conclusion There was a significant difference between the subjec-tive and objective sleep quality of patients with recurrent depression ,and the differences were related to the course of disease,the number of attack,PSQI score and HAMA-14 score.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of Oxaliplatin (L-OHP) on cell cycle in hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG2 and the involved mechanism.
METHODSInhibitory effect of L-OHP on the proliferation of HepG2 cells was determined by MTT assay. Cell cycle distribution was shown by flow FCM. The expression levels of cyclinD1, CDK2, CDK4, p16, p21, p53 were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot.
RESULTSMTT method revealed that L-OHP inhibited proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. L-OHP induced S cell cycle arrest in HepG2 cell; down-regulated the levels of CDK4, cyclinD1 and up-regulated the levels of p21, p53. There were no significant changes of CDK2 and p16 after L-OHP treatment.
CONCLUSIONL-OHP inhibits the proliferation of HepG2 cells by blocking cell at S stage, which may be resulted from the activity of CDK4, CyclinD1 and p21.

Objective Find abnormal changes of plasma lipid metabolism-related proteins before 20 weeks of gestation in patients with hypertensive disorder of pregnancy(HDP), and preliminarily investigate the role of plasma apolipoprotein C4 elevation in HDP. Methods A nested case-control study was used. The plasma were collected from pregnant women who underwent routine prenatal examination in Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center from November 2014 to March 2017. Label-free mass spectrometry was used to detect the differences in plasma lipid metabolism-related proteins before 20 weeks of gestation between 12 pairs of HDP patients and normal controls, and different 48 pairs of samples were used for verification. The protein with the most significant difference multiples was screened to study its effects on monolayer permeability and nitric oxide secretion of endothelial cells. One-way ANOVA was used for comparison between groups, and P<0.05 was considered as statistically significant difference. Results Compared with the control, the lipid metabolism-related proteins, APOC4, Fatty acid-binding protein 4 (FABP4), Apolipoprotein E (APOE), Apolipoprotein C3 (APOC3) and Beta-2-glycoprotein 1(APOH) raised to 1.94, 1.82, 1.59, 1.55 and 1.38 times, phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) decreased to 0.78 times in plasma before 20 weeks of pregnancy of patients with HDP (t value were 2.499, 2.497, 2.081, 2.098, 2.426 and 2.564, respectively, P<0.05). Cell experiments results showed that 50 ng / ml APOC4 significantly increased 20% HUVEC single layer cell permeability to FITC-labeled dextran (F=455.4, P<0.01), and significantly decreased the level of nitric oxide in the supernatant of HUVEC culture by 25% (F=61.92, P<0.01). Conclusions Before diagnosis, plasma protein levels involved in lipid metabolism in HDP patients have been changed, resulting in abnormal lipid metabolism. APOC4 can increase the permeability of vascular endothelial cells, inhibit endothelial source of NO secretion, cause endothelial dysfunction.

COVID-19 pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has spread across the globe, posing an enormous threat to public health and safety. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), in combination with Western medicine (WM), has made important and lasting contributions in the battle against COVID-19. In this review, updated clinical effects and potential mechanisms of TCM, presented in newly recognized three distinct phases of the disease, are summarized and discussed. By integrating the available clinical and preclinical evidence, the efficacies and underlying mechanisms of TCM on COVID-19, including the highly recommended three Chinese patent medicines and three Chinese medicine formulas, are described in a panorama. We hope that this comprehensive review not only provides a reference for health care professionals and the public to recognize the significant contributions of TCM for COVID-19, but also serves as an evidence-based in-depth summary and analysis to facilitate understanding the true scientific value of TCM.
