Objective: To investigate the sensitization of physiological (10~(-9)mol/L) and pharmacological (10~(-5)mol/L) concentrations of melatonin on cell line MCF-7 for adriamycin and its mechanism. Methods: (1) MTT was applied to test the changes in inhibition ratio and IC_(50) of call line MCF-7 for adriamycin before and af-ter incubation with melatonin. (2) Flow cytometry was used to observe the effect of different concentrations of melatonin, adriamycin and melatonin plus adriamycin on cell apoptosis. (3) Western blot was employed to de-termine the expression of p53 and bcl-2 in MCF-7 cells incubated with melatonin, adriamycin and melatonin plus adriamycin. Results: (1) MTT method showed that adriamycin had inhibitive effect on the growth of MCF-7 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The IC_(50) of cell line MCF-7 for adnamycin before treat-ment with melatonin was 0.62±0.07ug/mL (P>0.05). The IC50 of cell line MCF-7 for adriamycin incubated with physiological and pharmacological concentrations of melatonin was 0.59±0.09ug/mL and 0.42±0.02ug/mL, re-spectively, with a significant difference (P<0.01). (2) Flow cytometry method showed that adriamycin could promote apoptosis of MCF-7, and no changes in the apoptosis index were observed as the concentration of melatonin was changed (P>0.05). With the same concentration of adriamycin, the apoptosis index of cells treated with physiological concentration of melatonin plus adriamycin was not changed (P=>0.05), but the apop-tosis index of cells treated with pharmacological concentrations of melatonin plus addamycin was increased significantly. The concentration of adriamycin had no effect on the apoptosis index. (3) Western blot showed that P53 protein was expressed at a lower level and bcl-2 protein was highly expressed. Physiological concen-trations of melatonin increased the expression of p53 and decreased bcl-2 expression in a dose - dependent manner. The concentration of addamycin had no effect on the expression of p53 and bcl-2 proteins. Conclu-sion: (1) Physiological concentrations of melatonin had no effect on the anti-cancer effect of adriamycin. Phar-macological concentrations of melatonin showed sensitization of MCF-7 cells for adriamycin. (2) With a lower concentration of adriamycin, the promotion of apoptosis may be part of the mechanism of sensitization effect of melatonin. With the increase of adriamycin concentration, the cytotoxic mechanism of melotonin became more and more important. (3) Physiological concentration could increase the expression of p53 and decrease bcl-2 expression in ER~+ breast carcinoma cell line MCF-7 in a dose -dependent manner. The apoptosis involv-ing p53 and bcl-2 passway was part of the mechanism of sensitization effect of melatonin for addamycin.

Objective To analyze the clinical features and the correlation between radiographic parameters and incidence of calcaneal spur in the patients from Nanfang Hospital,Southern Medical University,China.Methods Three experienced observers independently used the image acquisition and transmission system (PACS) to collect the data of lateral and axial X-ray images of calcaneus or ankle joint in neutral position from the patients with calcaneal spur and normal controls who had undergone radiological examination in Nanfang Hospital,Southern Medical University from July 2014 through December 2015.Ten radiological parameters of the foot (B(o)hler angle,Gissane angle,calcaneal inclination angle,talocalcaneal angle,talus horizontal angle,posterior facet inclination angle,calcaneal length,height of the posterior facet,absolute foot height,and calcaneal width) were measured in both the patients and normal controls.The location,morphology and length of calcaneal spurs were compared between genders,sides and age groups.Results A total of 216 parpatients were included in the study.Female patients were more than male ones,simple plantar spurs more than simple achilles tendon ones,type B spurs more than type A ones,the length of achilles tendon spurs larger than that of plantar ones,female plantar spurs more than males ones,and the length of right foot plantar spurs larger than that of left foot ones.All the differences above were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences in the location,morphology or length of calcaneal spurs between the age group of ≤ 60 years old and the age group of ＞ 60 years old (P ＞ 0.05).The incidence of calcaneal spur were significantly correlated to Gissane angle (P =0.000,OR =0.944,95％ CI 0.917-0.973),posterior facet inclination angle (P=0.017,OR=0.957,95％ CI 0.924-0.992) and height of the posterior facet (P =0.007,OR =0.933,95％ CI O.886-0.981).Conclusions Calcaneal spur favored more females than males.Plantar spurs were more common than Achilles ones.Plantar spurs of Type B were more common than those of Type A.Achilles spurs were longer than plantar ones.More females suffered plantar spur than males.Right foot spurs were longer than left foot ones.Age had no significant influence on the spur characteristics.The incidence of spur might have been related to the Gissane angle,posterior facet inclination angle and height of the posterior facet of the foot.

Objective:To construct a novel biomimetic calcium phosphate (BioCaP) scaffold loaded with bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2),and to investigate its role in the osteogenesis of human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs) in vitro and in vivo.Methods:The BioCaP scaffold coprecipitated with BMP-2 (BMP-2-BioCaP) was constructed in this study.Field emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to analyze the morphology of the surfaces.The release kinetics was measured to evaluate the slow-release characteristics in vitro.BMP-2-BioCaP was immersed in proliferation medium (PM) or osteogenic medium (OM),respectively.The supernatants were collected and used to culture hASCs in vitro.Cell numbers were determined using the cell-counting kit-8 (CCK-8) to assess the cell proliferation.After 7 and 14 days,alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining and quantification were performed to test the activity of ALP.After 14 and 21 days,the calcification deposition was determined by alizarin red S (ARS) staining and quantification.The expressions of the osteoblast-related genes were tested on day 4 and day 14.In the in vivo study,6 nude mice were used and implanted subcutaneously into the back of the nude mice for 4 groups:(1) BioCaP scaffold only,(2) BioCaP scaffold + hASCs,(3) BMP-2-BioCaP scaffold,(4) BMP-2-BioCaP scaffold + hASCs (test group).After 4 weeks of implantation,hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was performed to evaluate the in vivo osteogenesis of hASCs.Results:SEM observations showed that BioCaP and BMP-2-BioCaP scaffold were entirely composed of straight,plate-like and sharp-edged crystal units,and the length of the crystal units varied between 5 and 10 μm.Release kinetics analysis demonstrated that BMP-2 incorporated with BioCaP could be released at certain concentration and last for more than 21 days,and the accumulative protein release could reach 20％.CCK-8 assays showed that cell proliferation was not significantly affected by BMP-2BioCaP.ALP activity was higher by the induction of OM + BMP-2-BioCaP than of the other groups (P ＜0.01).More mineralization deposition and more expressions of osteoblast-related genes such as Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2),ALP,osteopontin (OPN) and osteocalcin (OC) were determined in the OM + BMP-2-BioCaP group at different time points (P ＜0.01).HE staining showed that,in the test group and BMP-2-BioCaP scaffold group,the extracellular matrix (ECM) with eosinophilic staining were observed around hASCs,and newly-formed bone-like tissues could be found in ECM around the scaffold materials.Moreover,compared with the BMP-2-BioCaP scaffold group,more bone-like tissues could be observed in ECM with typical structure of bone tissue in the test groups.No obvious positive results were found in the other groups.Conclusion:BMP-2-BioCaP scaffold could achieve slow-release of BMP-2 and promote the osteogenic differentiation of hASCs in vitro and in vivo.The novel tissue-engineered bone composed of hASCs and BMP-2-BioCaPis promising for the repair of bone defect.

Objective:To explore the effects of sulforaphane (SFN), an activator of Nrf2, on anxiety and fear memory in Alzheimer's disease(AD) model mice and mechanism.Methods:The AD mice and wild type (WT) mice with the same background were randomly divided into four groups ( n=12 for each group): wild type + normal saline group (WT+ NS), wild type + sulforaphane (WT+ SFN), AD model + normal saline group (AD+ NS) and AD model + sulforaphane group (AD+ SFN). SFN was dissolved in normal saline (0.9% NaCl) and prepared solution with concentration of 1 g/L.According to body weight, mice in WT+ SFN group and AD+ SFN group were intraperitoneally injected with SFN (10 mg/kg), and mice in WT+ NS group and AD+ NS group were intraperitoneally injected with the same volume of normal saline once a day for 30 days.The open field test was used to detect the autonomous exploration ability and anxious behavior of mice.The elevated cross maze was used to detect the anxiety of mice.Conditional fear test was used to test the fear memory behavior of mice.Finally, the expression of superoxide dismutase(SOD) and malondialdehyde(MDA) in the hippocampus and cerebral cortex were detected by ELISA.Two-way ANOVA analysis was performed using GraphPad Prism 8.0.2 software. Results:In the open field test, the percentage of time in central region in AD+ SFN group ((9.99+ 0.37)%) was higher than that of AD+ NS group ((8.47+ 0.42)%) ( q=3.842, P<0.05). In the elevated cross maze, the percentage of time in open arm of AD+ SFN group ((26.2±1.6)%) was higher than that in AD+ NS group ((15.8±1.0)%) ( q=7.452, P<0.01). In the conditional fear test, all the mice of the four groups developed the fear memory, but AD+ SFN group showed higher freezing time ratio ((64.5±3.8)%) than AD+ NS group ((51.0±4.3)%)( q=5.266, P<0.01) in the testing stage.After SFN intervention, the important indicator of oxidative stress, the expression levels of SOD in hippocampus ( q=6.370, P<0.01) and cortex ( q=7.858, P<0.01) of AD mice increased, while the level of MDA in hippocampus ( q=5.146, P<0.05) and cortex ( q=5.833, P<0.01) decreased. Conclusion:SFN may inhibit oxidative stress through Nrf2 pathway, thereby improving anxiety and fear memory in AD mice.

Objective To investigate the emotional state and its influencing factors in children with nocturnal enuresis,so as to improve clinical attention and give appropriate intervention.Methods Totally 166 nocturnal enuresis patients aged 9 -15 years old were admitted to Beijing Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from August 2011 to August 2014.Specifically,Screen for Child Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders (SCARED)and Depres-sive Self -Rating Scale for Childhood (DSRSC)were utilized to test the patients′emotional state.The comparison be-tween the general norm data of the healthy children and the psychological test of enuresis children were performed,the lat-ter emotional state and its influence factors were evaluated.Analysis of variance and t -test were performed.Frequency comparison was done by using χ2 test.Influence factors analysis was made by Logistic or multiple regression analysis. Results The incidence of children′s anxiety with enuresis was 39.2%(65 /166 cases).Anxiety overall scores of children with enuresis amounted to 21 .16 ±11 .88 which were significantly higher than the norm(14.40 ±9.41 )(P <0.05).The diagnosis rate of depression in the NE patients was 9.0%.No significant difference was found in the depression total scores(P >0.05).The emotional disorders mainly appeared in patients with primary enuresis,without family history,poor grade and poor relationships with family members and peers.The school performance was an important factor for enuresis patients with anxiety disorders(P <0.05).Conclusions Children with nocturnal enuresis are more likely to have anxiety disorders than normal children.Their emotional states is related to the enuresis type,family history,school performance, family and peer relationship.Therefore,attention should be paid to the emotional state of children with nocturnal enuresis. According to the adverse factors for nocturnal enuresis patients,effective treatment and appropriate psychological interven-tion should be given at the same time.
