Objective:To investigate the effects of medroxyprogesterone acetate(MPA) on the proliferation and apoptosis of human colorectal cancer cells.Methods: Human colorectal cancer cell line LS174T was treated with different concentrations of MPA(12.5,25,50 and 100 ?mol/L) for 120 h.The inhibitory effect of MPA was measured with MTT method;the cell cycle,cell apoptosis,and cell surface Fas expression were analyzed with flow cytometry.Results: MPA had significant inhibitory effect on the growth of LS174T human colon cancer cells.Cell growth was found to be arrested in G_(1) phase and cells in S phase and G_(2)/M phase were decreased.The natural apoptosis rate and the apoptosis rates at MPA 12.5 and 25 ?mol/L were 4.8%,15.1%and 25.6%,respectively.Cell surface Fas expression in cancer cells increased after treated with MPA.Conclusion: MPA has significant inhibitory effect on the growth of human colon cancer cells,which may be related to Fas expression upregulation on cancer cell surface and G_(1) phase arrest.

Objective To analyze the feasibility of theone-cardmode for division-level cadres hospitalized at military hospitals, and to provide reference for application of this mode to cadres under the regimental level who are hospitalized at military hospitals.Methods A 4-month pilot project was carried out among division-level cadres in Lanzhou, Jinan, Nanjing and Chengdu.Data collection and statistical analysis were conducted through the monitoring platform established in the administrative section.Results Division-level cadres outside the system mostly chose division-level hospitals.Patients thended to be hospitalized at nearby or high-quality hospitals mainly due to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and malignant tumor.Accommodation was not difficult.Conclusion The one-cardmode is feasible at military hospitals for division-level cadres, but the current system of initial diagnosis at basic medical institutions should be maintained.An information sharing platform of electronic medical records should be built to implement inter-hospital linking and sharing of diagnosis and treatment information.A budget subsidy mechanism should be established to normalize hospitalization.

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have demonstrated that the responses of myocardium to short periods of ischemia/reperfusion are associated with changes in the expressions of a variety of genes. However, the characteristics of these changes are unknown.OBJECTIVE: To clone and analyze a stress-inducible gene characteristics in order to study the molecular mechanism of myocardium to short periods of ischemia/reperfusion damage.DESIGN: A controlled animal study.SETTING: Department of Hematology, Xiangya Hospital of Central South University.MATERIALS: Sixteen castrated male German Landrace-type domestic porcines, weighing between 21 and 39 kg, were provided by the laboratory of Department of Experimental of Cardiology at Bad Nauheim in Germany. The porcines were randomly divided into two groups ischemia/reperfusion group (n =14) and control group (n =2). The porcines in the ischemia/reperfusion group were observed at 0, 30 and 90 minutes of reperfusion after reocclusion, and ischemia and non-ischemia myocardial tissues were harvested from each pocrine.METHODS: The experiments were performed in the laboratory of Department of Experimental Cardiology of Max-Planck Institute for Physiological and Clinical Research at Bad Nauheim in Germany and the Department of Hematology, Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from July in 1998 to May in 2007. All the animals were anesthetized and thoracotomized. Following 30 minutes of stabilization, the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) was occluded for 10 minutes followed by 30-minute reperfusion and then another 10-minute reocclusion. The porcines were killed immediately at corresponding time points. The sham-operated animals were killed without occlusion. Experimental tissue was removed from the LAD area and control tissue from the region of the left circumflex coronary artery area. Firstly, a porcine heart cDNA library was screened, DNA and deduced amino acid sequences were then analyzed. Meanwhile, short periods of myocardium ischemia/reperfusion was performed by occluding porcine LAD followed by reperfusion as mentioned above, and total RNAs isolated from myocardium or a variety of other tissues were used for Northern blotting. Quantitation of mRNA levels was accomplished by using a PhosphorImager and Image Quant software, the ration of mRNA/18S rRNA was suggested as the level of gene expression.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① DNA and amino acid sequences analysis of the cloned gene; ② Analysis of the cloned gene expression.RESULTS: All the 16 porcines were involved in the final analysis of results. After screening, a cDNA fragment with 3 461 base pairs was obtained. DNA sequencing and searching revealed that this cDNA shared 86% identity to human structural maintenance of chromosome 6 gene (hSMC6), and 84% identity to Mus musculus SMC6 (mSMC6). Furthermore, a largest polypeptide deduced from this cDNA contained 1007 amino acid residues, and protein homology searching indicated that the predicted polypeptide carried 92% and 89% identity to hSMC6 or mSMC6 protein respectively. Thus, the cloned cDNA was referred to as a porcine homology gene to hSMC6 (pSMC6). The results of Northern blotting showed that the expression of the pSMC6 mRNA in ischemia/reperfusion myocardium was increased, and its mRNA existed in all organs tested. CONCLUSION: A stress-inducible gene of pSMC6 from porcine myocardium has been cloned, which is high homology to hSMC6 gene, and the pSMC6 or along with other molecules is possible involved in the early repair of myocardium to DNA damage caused by ischemia/reperfusion in the porcine heart.
