Objective To examine the expression of heparin binding-epidermal growth factor-like growth factor (HB-EGF) in paclitaxel-resistant ovarian cancer and elucidate the relationship between HB-EGF and the resistance of ovarian cancer to paclitaxel. Methods The human ovarian carcinoma cell line A2780 and the paclitaxel-resistant human ovarian carcinoma cell line A2780/Taxol were cultured in vitro. Western blot was used to dectect the expression of HB-EGF protein in A2780 and A2780/Taxol groups. The A2780 cells were treated with cross-reacting material 197 (CRM197 and A2780 + CRM197 group) or dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO;A2780 group), while the A2780/Taxol cells were treated with CRM197 (A2780/Taxol+CRM197 group) or DMSO (A2780/Taxol group). The effects of CRM197 on growth and proliferation was tested by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium( MTT) and the results were showed as absorbance (A).The effects of CRM197 on cell cycles was tested by flow cytometry, while the effects of CRM197 on apoptosis was examined by caspase-3 activity assay and the results were showed as p-nitroaniline(pNa). In animal experiment, four groups of cells were inoculated to BALB/c nude mouse subcutaneously to observe tumor formation ability following CRM197 treatment. Immunohistochemistry was used to determine the expression of HB-EGF protein in A2780 and A2780/Taxol group. Results The expression level of HB-EGF protein in A2780/Taxol group (2.11±0.41) was significantly higher than that of A2780 group (0.75±0.20;P<0.01). The inhibition effect of CRM197 on the cell growth of A2780+CRM197 and A2780/Taxol+CRM197 group was accompanied by the acceleration of CRM197 concentration(P<0.01). When CRM197≥1 μg/ml, the inhibition effect of CRM197 on the cell growth of A2780/Taxol+CRM197 group was significantly higher than that in A2780/Taxol group(P<0.05). In cell cycle experiment, CRM197 induced the cell-cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase in A2780+CRM197 cells[(67 ± 4)%] compared with A2780 cells[(54 ± 6)%;P<0.01], while CRM197 significantly induced the cell-cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase in A2780/Taxol+CRM197 cells [(72± 4)%] compared with A2780/Taxol cells [(24±8)%;P<0.01]. CRM197 treatment in A2780+CRM197 group [(40 ± 6)μmol/L] led to the acceleration of the caspase-3 activity when compared to A2780 group [(6 ± 6)μmol/L;P<0.01], while CRM197 treatment in A2780/Taxol+CRM197 group [(66 ± 12)μmol/L] led to significant acceleration of the caspase-3 activity when compared to A2780 group [(9 ± 6)μmol/L;P<0.01]. In experiments in vivo, the expression scores of HB-EGF protein in A2780/Taxol tumors(10.8 ± 3.3) were higher than that in A2780 tumors (5.0±2.2;P<0.01). The tumor size and tumor weight of the A2780/Taxol+CRM197 group were both higher than those of the A2780+CRM197 group [(546 ± 85) mm3 vs (1 355 ± 119) mm3,(0.56 ± 0.09) g vs (1.31 ± 0.27) g; all P<0.01]. The CRM197 inhibition rate of the A2780+CRM197 and A2780/Taxol + CRM197 group were 43% and 68% respectively, showed that CRM197 significantly suppressed the growth of A2780/Taxol xenografts in vivo(P<0.01). Conclusions HB-EGF is over-expressed in paclitaxel-resistant ovarian cancer and may be contributes to drug resistance. Inhibition of HB-EGF expression potently enhances apoptosis and inhibit the growth of paclitaxel-resistant ovarian cancer, shedding light on the HB-EGF-targeted therapy options for chemoresistant ovarian cancer patients.

Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of CRM197, the heparin binding-epidermal growth factor-like growth factor (HB-EGF) inhibitor, on the reverse of the resistance ofovarian cancer to paclitaxel. Methods (1)The effect of CRM197 on the 50% inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of human ovarian carcinoma cell line A2780 and paclitaxel-resistant ovarian carcinoma cell line A2780/Taxol was tested by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay. Western blot was used to detect the effect of CRM197 on the expression of HB-EGF,epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and plasma membrane glycoprotein (P-gp) protein in A2780 and A2780/Taxol cells. Real-time PCR was used to examine the MDR1 mRNA expression in these cells. (2) A2780/Taxol cells were divided into 4 groups, including the cells transfected with empty vector and saline treatment (empty vector group), MDR1 small interference RNA (siRNA)vector and saline treatment (MDR1 siRNA group),empty vector and CRM197 treatment (empty vector+CRM197 group) and MDR1 siRNA vector and CRM197 treatment (MDR1 siRNA+CRM197 group), respectively. Flow cytometry was used to detecte the effect of intracellular rhodomine 123 (Rh123) accumulation, and caspase-3 activity assay was used to test the effect of apoptosis in four groups of A2780/Taxol cells. (3) In experiments in vivo, A2780/Taxol cells were inoculated to nude mouse subcutaneously to determine the EGFR and P-gp protein expression following CRM197 treatment by immunohistochemistry. Results (1)In vitro,MTT examination showed that the IC50 of A2780/Taxol cells to paclitaxel in A2780/Taxol+CRM197 group [(6.4±0.3)μmol/L] was significantly lower than the IC50 in A2780/Taxol group [(34.1± 0.5)μmol/L,P<0.01], and the reveral fold of CRM197 was 5.3. The expression level of HB-EGF protein in A2780/Taxol+CRM197 group (1.44 ± 0.29) was significantly lower than HB-EGF protein in A2780/Taxol group (2.72 ± 0.32),respectively (P<0.05). The expression level of EGFR protein (0.71 ± 0.25) and P-gp protein (0.82±0.19) in A2780/Taxol+CRM197 group was significantly lower than EGFR protein (1.87±0.31) and P-gp protein (1.84 ± 0.27) of A2780/Taxol group (P<0.05). Compared with A2780/Taxol group(1.78 ± 0.27), MDR1 mRNA was significantly down-regulated in A2780/Taxol+CRM197 group (0.79 ± 0.13,P<0.05). (2) The fluorescence intensity of Rh123 of the A2780/Taxol cells in empty vector group, MDR1 siRNA group,empty vector+CRM197 group, MDR1 siRNA+CRM197 group was 33.4±1.6, 56.3±3.3, 43.5± 3.1,100.4 ± 7.4, and the pNA of the A2780/Taxol cells was(11.4 ± 1.2),(52.8 ± 0.9),(71.2 ± 3.6),(82.7 ± 3.8)μmol/L. The expression levels in MDR1 siRNA+CRM197 group were both higher than the expression levels in empty vector+CRM197 group, and the expression levels in empty vector+CRM197 group, MDR1 siRNA group were both higher than the expression levels in empty vector group (P<0.05). (3) In vivo, the expression scores of EGFR protein in A2780/Taxol+CRM197 tumors (4.4 ± 1.4) were lower than that in A2780/Taxol tumors (10.2 ± 3.1,P<0.05). The expression scores of P-gp protein in A2780/Taxol+CRM197 tumors (3.8 ± 1.1) were lower than that in A2780/Taxol tumors (8.8 ± 2.7,P<0.05). Conclusion CRM197 reverses the resistance of ovarian cancer to paclitaxel by increasing caspase-3 activity to advance apoptosis via EGFR/MDR1/P-gp pathway.

Objective:To survey the practice of hospice care and influencing factors among health providers in Shanghai.Methods:From November to December in 2019, a sampling survey on the practice of hospice care was conducted among 2 982 health providers from 217 institutions in 16 districts of Shanghai by using the self-designed scale.Results:The overall behavior frequency of hospice care in health providers was between "occasionally" (3 points) and "often" (4 points). The item score was (3.7±0.9), and the total score was (52.1±10.0). In the aspect of building a good relationship with patients and family(77.7%, 2 317/2 982), the participants had the highest work-practice(46.4%, 1 383/2 982). However, they practiced less in recommending the hospice care institutions to terminal patients. In terms of work-practice, the average score in male providers, those with education of undergraduate and above, those being married (including divorced or widowed), medical staff, those with associated senior titles, with witness of dying, or those currently working in the hospice care service department was higher.Conclusions:The hospice care work-practice of health providers in Shanghai is generally satisfactory, however, there is still some discrepancy among health providers with various characteristics. To further improve quality of hospice care, it is necessary to strengthen policy implementation, to encourage multidisciplinary team cooperation and carry out various forms of professional training for health providers.
