Objective To prepare recombinant mda-7/IL-24 adenovirus to study its function on the proliferation of small cell lung cancer NCI-H446 cells. Methods According to the manufacturer's instructions of AdEasy vector system, mda-7/IL-24 cDNA was subcloned into the adenoviral shuttle vector pAdTrack-CMV. The efficient recombination of adenoviral backbone vector pAdEasy-1 and pAdTrack-CMV-mda-7/IL-24 was achieved in bacteria E. coli BJ 5183. The recombinant adenoviral vector pAd-mda-7/IL-24 linearized by Pac Ⅰ was transfected into HEK293 cells with lipofectamine 2000. To generate higher titer viral stocks, the amplification of recombinant adenovirus was accomplished in packing cells. Viral titers were measured by tissue culture infectious dose 50 (TCID_ 50 ) method. Ad.mda-7/IL-24 was identified by PCR. The expression of pAd-mda-7/IL-24 in NCI-H446 cells was detected by Western-blot analysis. The function of Ad.mda-7/IL-24 on the proliferation of NCI-H446 cells was assayed by MTT after cells were infected by 50 pfu/ml adenovirus. Results The recombinant adenoviral shutter vector pAdTrack-CMV-mda-7/IL-24 and recombinant adenoviral vector pAd-mda-7/IL-24 were constructed successfully as identified by sequence analysis. PCR assay showed that adenovirus Ad.mda-7/IL-24 contained mda-7/IL-24 cDNA. After amplification in packing cell HEK293, the titer of virus was 2?10~ 10 pfu/ml measured by TCID_ 50 assay. Western-blot results identified that MDA-7/IL-24 could be expressed in NCI-H446 cells. After infected by 50 pfu/ml adenovirus, the proliferation of NCI-H446 cells was inhibited by 21.37% with MTT method. Conclusion Ad.mda-7/IL-24 can inhibit the growth of NCI-H446 cell obviously. This result lays foundation to study its function mechanism and to apply it in gene therapy of the small cell lung cancer.

Myeloproliferative neoplasms ( MPN ) are clonal hematopoietic stem cell diseases characterized by proliferation of one or more myeloid cell lineages in the bone marrow and increased mature and immature cells inperipheral blood.In recent years , several molecular markers have been discovered , such as JAK2 (JAK2 V617F and JAK2 exon12),MPL515 and TET2 mutations and so on.The discoveries provide important significance of better understanding of the pathogenesis in MPNs and are helpful for the purposes of both diagnosis and therapy.However , diagnosis remains difficult in the remaining 30%-45% of patients who lack JAK2 or MPL mutations.Recently as was reported , the identification of CALR mutations will partly address a gap above and may be a new biomarker in the molecular diagnosis of MPNs .In this review,the discovery of CALR mutations in MPN will be introduced.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of keeping the consistency of bladder filing by a Bladderscan ( BS ) device during radiotherapy for rectal cancer. Methods The bladder volume was measured using a BS device and recorded. To verify the reliability of the BS measurement, the urinary output was determined by a measuring glass after complete urinary discharge. The bladder volume of 42 patients determined by the planning computed tomography ( CT) scans was used as the standard urinary volume. The bladder volume was measured using the BS device before radiotherapy every day. The chief complaint urinary volume was determined as the bladder volume when a patient felt a strong urge to urinate. The controlled urinary volume was determined as the urinary output intervened by the BS device to reach the standard urinary volume. Comparison was made by t test and data was assessed by Pearson correlation analysis. Results There was no significant difference in obtained urinary volume between the BS device and the planning CT scan ( P=0?84) . The urinary volume measured by the measuring glass was correlated with that measured by the BS device ( P=0?00 ) . The ability to hold urine in all patients was gradually weakened during treatment. The controlled urinary volume had a significantly smaller decrease after 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 weeks of treatment than the chief complaint urinary volume ( 5% vs. 21%;6% vs. 20%;6% vs. 20%, 4% vs. 21%;11% vs. 26%;all P=0?00) . Conclusions Patients have a gradually decreased urinary volume during treatment. The intervention by the BS device gives a bladder volume close to that in the planning system, which results in a consistent bladder filling.

BACKGROUND:Transformation growth factor-β(TGF-β) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) are the main regulatory factors in the process of spinal cord injury. There are many researches for TGF-βand BDNF pathogenesis in the spinal cord injury, but the regulation of Ginsenoside Rg1 intervention on TGF-βand BDNF in the spinal cord injury is rarely reported.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of Ginsenoside Rg1 intervention on TGF-βand BDNF expression at themolecular protein levels, and to study the protection effect of Ginsenoside Rg1 on the spinal cord and nerve function after spinal cord injury.
METHODS:Experimental rats were randomly divided into blank control group, model group and Ginsenoside Rg1 group. In the model and Ginsenoside Rg1 groups, spinal cord injury model was established with the impact method in rats. In the Ginsenoside Rg1 group, rats were intraperitoneal y injected with 10 mg/kg Ginsenoside Rg1 24 hours after modeling, once per day, for 14 days. Rats in the blank control and model groups were injected with equal saline.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the control group, serum malondialdehyde levels increased, the content of superoxide dismutase decreased, TGF-βexpression levels in spinal cord tissue increased, and BDNF expression levels decreased in the model and Ginsenoside Rg1 groups. Compared with the model group, serum malondialdehyde levels decreased, the content of superoxide dismutase increased, TGF-βexpression levels in spinal cord tissue decreased, and BDNF expression levels increased in the Ginsenoside Rg1 group. Ginsenoside Rg1 can protect the injury spinal cord in rats after spinal cord injury.

BACKGROUND:Chinese herb extracts can restore and protect the nervous system of rats through intervention of neural stem cels. OBJECTIVE:To explore the role of ginsenosides Rg1 in the proliferation and protection of neural stem cels. METHOD:Sprague-Dawley rats at pregnant 19 days were dissected to take out fetal rats, and then the hippocampal tissues from fetal rats were isolated to extract neural stem cels. Neural stem cels were co-cultured with DMEM/F12 medium containing 50 g/L ginsenosides Rg1 as intervention group, with DMEM/F12 medium as blank control group, and with DMEM/F12 containing 0.64% phenol as positive control group, respectively. MTT assay was used to detect the proliferation of neural stem cels in each group, and western blot method to detect the protein expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor and transforming growth factor-β in neural stem cels. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Rat neural stem cels were round single cels with clear border at early period after isolation but at 2 days after inoculation, the cels were adherent and aggregated into smal cel spheres. Compared with the blank control group, the proliferative rate of neural stem cels was significantly increased in the ginsenosides Rg1 group (P < 0.05), but decreased in the positive control group (P < 0.05). Compared with the blank control group, in the ginsenosides Rg1 group, the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor was elevated, and the expression of transforming growth factor-β was reduced, indicating ginsenosides Rg1 has a certain effect to promote the proliferation of neural stem cels as wel as to protect the neural stem cels.

Objective:To investigated the correlation between vascular remodeling pattern and perforator stroke after stenting in patients with symptomatic intracranial vertebrobasilar artery stenosis.Methods:Patients with symptomatic intracranial vertebrobasilar atherosclerotic stenosis underwent stenting and high resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HR-MRI) from January 2017 to August 2020 were enrolled retrospectively. The data of demography, vascular risk factors, plaque characteristics, operation process and postoperative complications were collected. The plaque characteristics were observed by HR-MRI, and the correlation between vascular remodeling pattern and perforator stroke after stenting was analyzed.Results:A total of 41 patients were enrolled in the analysis. Their age was 60.1±8.8 years (range, 49-77 years). There were 31 males (75.6%). Among them, 21 (51.2%) were positive remodeling, 20 (48.8%) were non-positive remodeling, and 5 (12.2%) had perforator stroke after procedure. The incidence of perforator stroke in the positive remodeling group was significantly higher than that in the non-positive remodeling group (23.8% vs. 0%; P=0.048). The positive remodeling rate of the perforator stroke group was significantly higher than that of the non-perforator stroke group (100.0% vs. 44.4%; P=0.048). Conclusions:Patients with intracranial vertebrobasilar atherosclerotic stenosis and positive vascular remodeling were more likely to have perforator stroke after stenting.
