The poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs) is an important group of enzymes in DNA repair pathways, especially the base excision repair (BER) for DNA single-strand breaks (SSBs) repair. Inhibition of PARP in DNA repair-defective tumors (like those with BRAC1/2 mutations) can lead to cell death and genomic instability, what is so called "synthetic lethality". Currently, PARP inhibitors combined with cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agents in the treatment of BRCA-1/2 deficient cancers are in the clinical development. In this review, we will be focused on the development of combination application of PARP inhibitors with other anticancer agents in clinical trials.

Objective To determine the contents of four effective constituents in Euphorbiae Semen decoction;To provide evidence for Euphorbiae Semen decoction into clinical application. Methods Established quantitative analysis multi-components by single marker method was used to determine the contents of diterpenoids constituents, such as euphorbia storoid, euphorbia factor L2, and euphorbia factor L3. HPLC method was used to determine the contents of aesculetin. Results Contents of euphorbia storoid, euphorbia factor L2, and euphorbia factor L3 in smashed Euphorbiae Semen decoction were 0.015 9%, 0.005 9% and 0.024 1%, respectively. However, the contents of the above three constituents could not be detected in whole Euphorbiae Semen decoction. The content of aesculetin (0.693 6%) in smashed Euphorbiae Semen decoction was more than that in whole Euphorbiae Semen decoction (0.288 2%). Conclusion Decoction digestion effect of diterpenoids constituents in Euphorbiae Semen decoction is not good. Decocting with water is not suitable for the clinical application of Euphorbiae Semen for purgation and diuresis. Aesculetin in smashed Euphorbiae Semen decoction has good decoction digestion effect, in which clinical use for antisepsis and anti-inflammation is effective.

Objective To investigate the significance of CD44v6 expression in acute leukemia( AL) and it's relation with the prognosis of AL. Methods Sixty AL patients were treated by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay( ELISA)as initial treatment group. Fourty-seven cases were remission as remission group, and 20 cases with no-remission group. Meanwhile,45 healthy people were served as the control group. The level of CD44v6 was measured by ELISA. Results The serum CD44v6 in initial treatment patients,remission group, no-remission group and control group were( 179. 34 ± 39. 41 )μg/L,( 190. 61 ± 28. 05 )μg/L,( 106. 72 ± 26. 38)μg/L and(98. 31 ± 21. 78)μg/L respectively,and the difference was significant( F =56. 303,P﹤0. 01),and the CD44v6 of initial treatment group and remission group were higher than that of no-remission group and control group(P﹤0. 05). The leukocyte levels was positive related to CD44v6 levels in 60 patients(r=0. 826,P﹤0. 01),and it was also related to disease stage,extramedullary infiltration(( r=0. 485,0. 512;P﹤0. 01). Conclusion The level of CD44v6 is closely related with the occurrence and development of acute leukemia. The assay of CD44v6 in serum of AL patients is helpful in diagnosing and predicting the risk of metastasis and prognosis in AL.

Objective:To preliminarily evaluate the immunogenicity and efficacy of two novel tuberculosis vaccine candidates (a fusion multicomponent protein EPDPA015f and a mixed multicomponent protein EPDPA015m) and to provide a new antigen combination for the development of tuberculosis vaccines.Methods:Recombinant plasmids for the expression of EPDPA015f and EPDPA015m proteins were constructed. Six-week-old BALB/c mice were immunized with EPDPA015f or EPDPA015m in combination with aluminium adjuvant (50 μg/mouse) for three times with an interval of 10 d. The mice were sacrificed 10 d after the last immunization to collect blood and spleen samples. Serum antibody titers and cytokine levels were measured by ELISA, Luminex technique and enzyme-linked immunospot assay (ELISPOT). Mycobacterial growth inhibition assay (MGIA) was used to detect the ability of mouse splenocytes to inhibit the growth of Mtb in vitro. One-way analysis of variance and t-test were used for statistical analysis. Results:Both EPDPA015f and EPDPA015m could induce the production of various cytokines and IgG antibodies at a high level. The levels of cytokines related to Th1 (IL-2, TNF-α, IFN-γ), Th2 (IL-4, IL-6, IL-10) and Th17 (IL-17) as well as other proinflammatory cytokines (GM-CSF, IL-12) were higher in the EPDPA015f group than in the adjuvant group ( P<0.05). The titer of IgG antibody induced by EPDPA015f was as high as 1∶4×10 6. The results of MGIA showed that the numbers of Mtb (lgCFU) in the PBS, adjuvant, EPDPA015f and EPDPA015m groups were 3.46±0.11, 3.51±0.06, 2.98±0.09 and 3.19±0.08, respectively. The number of colonies in the EPDPA015f group was the least as compared with that in the other three groups ( P<0.001, P<0.001, P<0.01). Conclusions:The vaccine candidate EPDPA015f could elicit more comprehensive and high-level cellular and humoral immune responses, and exhibited superior in vitro inhibitory activity against the growth of Mtb. EPDPA015f had the potential to be used as a preventive vaccine or a booster vaccine

Background Arsenic is a human carcinogen. Arsenic and its metabolites affect the expression of p53, but whether there are any changes of p53 phosphorylation and ubiquitination levels in human bronchial epithelium cells (BEAS-2B) are not clear after exposure to arsenic and its metabolites. Objective To study the effects of arsenic and its metabolites monomethylarsic acid (MMA) and dimethylarsinic acid (DMA) on the expression of tumor suppressor gene p53 in BEAS-2B cells. Methods Different concentrations of sodium arsenite (NaAsO₂) were used to infect BEAS-2B cells, and the cell viability was detected with CCK-8 reagent to determine the dose and time of NaAsO₂ used for the following study. Based on the results of cell viability, the cells were divided into two panels: a sodium arsenide panel and an arsenic methylation metabolite penal. The doses of sodium arsenite were 0, 2, 4, and 6 μmol·L⁻¹ NaAsO₂; the arsenic methylation metabolite panel consisted of 0 μmol·L⁻¹ NaAsO₂ group (control), 6 μmol· L⁻¹ MMA group, 6 μmol· L⁻¹ DMA group， and 6 μmol· L⁻¹ NaAsO₂ group. The cells were collected after 48 h treatment, and the total protein and total RNA were extracted. The relative levels of p53 mRNA expression were determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), the relative expression levels of p53 protein, p53 Ser9 and Ser15 phosphorylated proteins were determined by Western blot, and the level of p53 ubiquitination was detected by co-immunoprecipitation (CO-IP). Results Compared with the control group, the cell viability rates in all BEAS-2B cells treated by NaAsO₂ were significantly reduced (P<0.05), and the 50% cell viability was observed at 6 μmol·L⁻¹. Compared with the control group, the relative expression level of p53 mRNA gradually decreased after NaAsO₂ (2, 4, 6 μmol·L⁻¹) treatment (P<0.05), the relative expression levels of p53 protein and Ser9 phosphorylated protein induced by NaAsO₂ also decreased gradually (P<0.05), and the relative expression level of p53 Ser15 phosphorylated protein induced by NaAsO₂ followed the same pattern, but it was only lower than that of the control group in the 6 μmol·L⁻¹ NaAsO₂ group (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, there were no significant effects on the relative expression levels of p53 mRNA, p53 protein, Ser9 and Ser15 phosphorylated proteins in the MMA group and the DMA group. Compared with the control group, the expression level of p53 ubiquitination was significantly decreased and the expression of K48 ubiquitination decreased significantly after NaAsO₂ infection. Conclusion Arsenic causes a decrease in the expression of the p53 protein in BEAS-2B cells, largely due to inhibition of the phosphorylated pathway and a decrease in mRNA expression, and protein changes caused by a decrease in p53 ubiquitination do not play a dominant role. MMA and DMA do not affect p53 gene expression.
