Tumor cell invasion and metastasis are associated with the proteolytic activity of various types of proteinases.Among them,cathepsin D,which is a lysosomal proteinase,has received more attention recently.Various studies have shown that the lysosomal aspartic protease cathepsin D is over-expressed and hyper-secreted by numerous cancer cell lines.Indeed it plays an essential role in the multiple steps of tumor progression,in stimulating cancer cell proliferation,tumor invasion and metastasis,fibroblast outgrowth and angiogenesis,as well as in inhibiting tumor apoptosis.In addition,CD is also a key mediator of induced- apoptosis.The aim of this article is to review the current knowledge on Cathepsin D action in cancer progression and metastasis,as well as its dual function in apoptosis.

Objective:To study the inhibitory effect of E1A gene on the growth of tumors in nude mice implanted with nasopharygeal carcinoma CNE2 cells and its promotion effect on the radiosensitivity of CNE2-implanted tumors,and to investigate the related mechanism.Methods: E1A gene was transfected into CNE2 cells using adenovirus system,and stable E1A positive clones were established.The inhibitory effect of E1A on tumor formation-ability of CNE2 cells was observed in nude mice.The efficacy of E1A gene therapy with or without radiotherapy against CNE2 cell-implanted tumors was evaluated.The effect of E1A gene therapy on the expression of P53 was detected by RT-PCR.Results: CNE2 cells stably transfected with E1A gene(CNE2-Ad-E1A)were successfully established.The tumor formation time was later and tumor size was smaller in CNE2-Ad-E1A cell-implanted mice compared with those in CNE2 cell-and CNE2-Ad-?-gal cell-implanted mice(CNE2 cells stably transfected with Ad-?-gal).Radiotherapy,E1A gene therapy and E1A gene+radiotherapy all suppressed the growth of implanted tumors,with the tumor suppression rates being(60.32?5.34)%,(70.53?6.12)%,and(97.15?4.87)%,respectively.E1A gene therapy significantly increased the expression of P53 gene in tumor tissues.Conclusion: E1A can inhibit the growth of tumors in mice implanted with nasopharygeal carcinoma cells,and enhance its sensitivity to radiotherapy,which may be related to the increased expression of P53 gene in tumor tissues.

Objective:To study the inhibitory effect of E1A gene on the growth of tumors in nude mice implanted with nasopharygeal carcinoma CNE2 cells and its promotion effect on the racliosensitivity of CNE2-implanted tumors, and to investigate the related mechanism. Methods: E1A gene was transfected into CNE2 cells using adenovirus system, and sta-ble E1A positive clones were established. The inhibitory effect of E1A on tumor formation-ability of CNE2 cells was ob-served in nude mice. The efficacy of E1A gene therapy with or without radiotherapy against CNE2 cell-implanted tumors was evaluated. The effect of E1A gene therapy on the expression of P53 was detected by RT-PCR. Results: CNE2 cells stably transfected with E1A gene (CNE2-Ad-E1A) were successfully established. The tumor formation time was later and tumor size was smaller in CNE2-Ad-E1A cell-implanted mice compared with those in CNE2 cell- and CNE2-Ad-β-gal cell-implanted mice (CNE2 cells stably transfected with Ad-β-gal). Radiotherapy, E1A gene therapy and E1A gene + radio-therapy all suppressed the growth of implanted tumors, with the tumor suppression rates being (60.32±5.34) %, (70.53±6.12) %, and (97.15±4.87) % , respectively. E1A gene therapy significantly increased the expression of P53 gene in tumor tissues. Conclusion: E1A can inhibit the growth of tumors in mice implanted with nasopharygeal carcinoma cells, and enhance its sensitivity to radiotherapy, which may be related to the increased expression of P53 gene in tumor tissues.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of the early activity on preventing deep vein thrombosis after joint replacement. Methods A total of 90 patients who undergone skeleton and knee joint replacement from January 2014 to January 2015 were randomly divid-ed into the observation group and the control group (with 45 cases in each group)according to the random number table method.The control group were given routine nursing care to prevent thrombosis,while the observation group were given intervention nursing,namely implementa-tion of early activities.The related symptoms of deep venous thrombosis and D-dimer level of high blood coagulation state of plasma of the two groups were observed and compared before and after treatment.Results The symptoms of deep vein thrombosis of the observation group in the early postoperative period were less than that of the control group,and the difference was significant(P <0.05).The D-dimer level of the observation group was lower than that of the control group 7 days after the operation with a significant difference (P <0.05).Conclusion Systematic nursing intervention of early activities can significantly reduce the related symptoms of forming deep vein thrombosis after joint re-placement.In addition,it has an apparent effect on lowing the high blood coagulation state and preventing deep vein thrombosis.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum levels of PCT and neutrophil CD64 contents with the effect of hormone therapy and complications in the patients with primary nephrotic syndrome.Methods Sixty-five patients with primary nephrotic syndrome in our hospital from September 2015 to September 2016 were selected as the research subjects,all cases were treated with hormonal therapy,the serum levels of PCT and neutrophil CD64 were detected and their relationship with the curative effect and complications of nephrotic syndrome was analyzed.Results According to the PCT and neutrophil CD64 median levels,the cases were divided into the high level group and low level group,the results found that serum creatinine,serum protein,urine protein and pathological types had no statistical difference between the high level group and low level group.The hormone sensitivity had 15 cases in the patients with high PCT level,which was significantly lower than 21 cases in the patients with low PCT level;the hormone sensitivity had 14 cases in the patients with high neutrophil CD64 level,acute renal failure,infection and thrombus in the patients with high PCT level had 8,10,6 cases,which were significantly lower than those in the patients with low PCT level;acute renal failure,infection and thrombus in the patients with high neutrophil CD64 level had 7,11,6 cases,which were significantly higher than those in the patients with low neutrophil CD64 level (P<0.05).Conclusion The levels of serum PCT and neutrophil CD64 are significantly correlated with the therapeutic effect and clinical prognosis in the patients with nephrotic syndrome.

Objective To investigate the effect of El A gene on the radiosensitivity of human laryngeal carcinoma cells and its correlated mechanisms. Methods The Ad-E1A and Ad-β-gal were amplifieated in Hek293 cells, extracted by freezing (-80℃) and thawing(37℃) repeatedly (3 times) , purificated by the method of density gradient of CsC1 and titrated by plaque assay method. Then they were transfected into human laryngeal carcinoma cells (Hep-2) and authenticated by RT-PCR. The radiosensitivity of Hep-2 cells transfeeted with or without El A were studied by cell surviral curve. Finally we investigated the correlated mechanisms including cell apoptosis studied by flow cytometry and VEGF content studied by RT-PCR. Resuits The radiosensitivity of Hep-2 cells transfected with El A was intensified, Do and Dq were lowered and α was increased. Flow cytometry showed that the apoptosis rate of cells with E1A or with El A and radiotherapy was increased. The VEGF content of the cells transfeeted with E1 A or treated by radiotherapy was decreased, which reached the lowest level when the cells were treated with the both mathods. Conclusions E1 A gene can intensify the radiosensitivity and contribute to the apoptosis of human laryngeal carcinoma cells. El A gene and radiotherapy can markedly decrease the VEGF content.

Objective To study the effect of E1A gene on the radiosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cells and its mechanism. Methods Ad-E1A gene was transfected into human NPC cells (CNE2), then the positive clones (CNE2-Ad-E1A) were identified by RT-PCR. CNE2 cells, CNE2 cells transfected with Ad-β-gal (CNE2-Ad-β-gal) and CNE2-Ad-E1A cells were irradiated with 0 Gy,2 Gy,4 Gy,6 Gy and 8 Gy respectively using 6 MV X-ray. Clone forming assays were carried out, cell survival curves were drawn and the sensitivity enhancing ratio (SER) was calculated. The redistributions of cell cy-cle were analyzed by flow cytometry. RT-PCR was used to detect the expression of wtp53. Results RT-PCR confirmed that E1A gene had been integTated into positively transfected cells and stably expressed. Cell survival curves showed that the SER of D0,Dq and SF_2 value was 1.37, 1.95 and 1.46 in CNE2-Ad-E1A cells. The D_0,D_q and SF_2 value was 1.57 Gy,1.82 Gy, 0.89 in CNE-2 cells and 1.53 Gy,1.78 Gy,0.82 in CNE2-Ad-β-gal cells, respectively. The G_2/M arrest was shown in CNE2-Ad-E1A cells. Moreover, the expression of wtp53 gene was markedly enhanced in Ad-E1A-CNE2 cells. Conclusions E1A gene can ef-fectively enhance the radiosensitivity of human NPC cells, which may be associated the enhancement of wt-p53 expression and G_2/M arrest.
