Objective To investigate the effects of monoclonal antibody against stathmin 1 in combination with vinblastine on the proliferation of K562 cells. Methods K562 cells were treated with monoclonal antibody against stathmin 1, vinblastine alone or with their combination, 24, 48, 72, 96 hours later, inhabitation rate was studied by MTT assay;The apoptosis was analyzed by invert microscope and flow cytometry with Annexin V/PI. Results The quantity decreased and shape, size changed after treatment with different concentration of experimental groups. Monoclonal antibodies against stathmin 1 and vinblastine used alone or in combination both inhibited the proliferation of K562 cells,the inhibition ratio of their combination is higher (P <0. 05) ,and a synergistic effect of the two agents was noted in their combined action ( P < 0. 05 ). Combined treatment of the cells resulted in significantly higher apoptsis rate than that in the other groups (P <0. 05). Conclusion Monoclonal antibody against stathmin 1 and vinblastine used alone or in combination both can inhibite proliferation of K562 cells and induce apoptsis. A synergistic effect is observed between the monoclonal antibodies against stathmin 1 and vinblastine in their inhibition of K562 cell proliferation.

Objective To evaluate the toxicity and efficacy of thermotherapy used with a streptococcus A preparation (OK-432) and cisplatin for treating malignant pleural effusion (MPE),and to assess patients' tolerance.Methods A total of 158 MPE patients were randomized into experimental and control groups.Closed drainage of the thoracic cavity was conducted with all the patients using a central venous catheter,and systematic chemotherapy was administered individually on the basis of each patient's condition.Patients in the control group were treated with intrapleural administration of OK-432 (0.5 mg) and cisplatin (40-60 mg) weekly for a maximum of 4 weeks,while those in the experimental group were given 60min of high frequency electrical thermotherapy 30-60 min after the administration of the drugs.The thermotherapy was at 40-43.5 ℃ and administered twice a week.Efficacy,quality of life and toxicity were compared between the two groups.Results The overall response rate in the experimental and control groups was 90.6% and 79.5% respectively;and grade I-II toxicity was similar.No grade Ⅲ or more serious toxicity was observed.The life quality scores in both groups were significantly improved after treatment.Conclusions Thermotherapy combined with intrapleural OK-432 and cisplatin can improve the effectiveness of therapy and life quality in MPE patients without increased toxicity.

Objective:To establish a simplified anatomical model with the selected rabbits widely distributed in China′s dry region as the reference species and compare the result of internal exposure dose coefficients based on the present mode and ERICA.Methods:A simplified anatomical model based on anatomy and geometry was established for rabbits. Combined with Monte Carlo program, the deposited energy of radionuclide particles in rabbit tissues/organs was obtained, and the internal and external exposure dose coefficient for rabbits was calculated following the empirical formula.Results:Simplified anatomy model-based dose coefficients were 129I 4.81 × 10 -6, 137Cs 4.34 × 10 -5, and 134Cs 3.81 × 10 -5(μGy·h -1)/(Bq·kg -1) for internal exposure and 129I 3.16 × 10 -7, 137Cs 2.39 × 10 -4 and 134Cs 6.22 × 10 -4(μGy·h -1)/(Bq· kg -1) for external exposure. respectively. ERICA-based dose coefficients were 129I 4.44 × 10 -5, 137Cs 1.94 × 10 -4 and 134Cs 2.34 × 10 -4(μGy·h -1)/(Bq·kg -1) for internal exposure and 129I 2.19 × 10 -6, 137Cs 2.52 × 10 -4 and 134Cs 6.95 × 10 -4(μGy·h -1)/(Bq·kg -1) for external exposure, respectively. Conclusions:The simplified anatomical model established is based on the measured data and focuses on the radiation doses to biological tissues/organs, and the calculated result based on the present model are closer to the actual situation, and can provide reference values for the reference biological evaluation of non-human species.
