Background and purpose:Studies have shown that renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is closely associated with tumor progress. angiotensinⅡ (AngⅡ) is the most important component of RAS. This study aimed to investigate the possible mechanism by which AngⅡ affected the cell proliferation in human breast cancer cell line MCF-7.Methods:CCK-8 was used to investigate the cell proliferation alteration of MCF-7 cells after treatment of AngⅡ at different dose and time. The inlfuence of losartan (an AT1R inhibitor) and PD98059 (a MAPK inhibitor) in AngⅡ-enhanced cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8. Protein expression was analyzed by Western blot.Results:AngⅡ stimulated the growth of breast cancer cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The maximal proliferation effect on MCF-7 cells was obtained with 10-7 mol/L AngⅡ and 24 h, respectively (P<0.000 1). Losartan signiifcantly decreased the level of AngⅡ-induced proliferative effects (P<0.05). Western blot showed that AngⅡ caused rapid activation of p-ERK. In addition, PD98059 could signiifcantly suppress AngⅡ-promoted cell proliferation.Conclusion:AngⅡ can promote MCF-7 cell proliferation through AT1R/ERK/MAPK pathway activation, which could be reversed by losartan or PD98059. Therefore, targeting AngⅡ/AT1R/MAPK signaling could be a novel therapeutic for breast cancer.

BACKGROUND: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have multi-differentiation potential. In the acute wound, MSCs have been demonstrated to have the potential for differentiating into skin cells. However, there are few reports regarding its differentiation in diabetic wound.OBJECTIVE: To observe the feasibility of differentiation of MSCs into the cells of skin appendages under the microenvironment of diabetic wound.METHODS: MSCs were isolated from the bone marrow of rats, purified and cultured. Third or fourth passage MSCs were selected and labeled with 5-bromodeoxyuridine (5-BrdU). The rats were injected intraperitoneally with single administration of streptozocin to establish diabetes model. After 2 weeks, a round skin wound was made on the dorsal back of rats. BrdU-labeled MSCs at a density of 1×10~9/L were injected into the wound of the rats. The specimens were harvested from the wound tissues to prepare sections at 2 and 3 weeks after transplantation, followed by immunohistochemical staining with BrdU or keratin. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: BrdU positive cells aggregated in the epidermis, dermis and hypodermia. Some positive cells appeared in the sebaceous glands and sebaceous duct cells and expressed keratin simultaneously in serial sections. During diabetic wound healing, MSCs have the potential to differentiate into the cells of the skin appendages.

Objective To evaluate the value of pre-operative 99Tcm-MIBI SPECT/CT in patients with HPT by comparing with planar 99Tcm-MIBI and ultrasound imaging. Methods A total of 57 patients (9 males, 48 females; average age: (52.9±15.5) years) were enrolled into this retrospective study. They all underwent 99Tcm-MIBI planar scintigraphy, 99Tcm-MIBI SPECT/CT and ultrasound during March to October in 2016. All patients received parathyroidectomy and the surgical pathology was considered as the gold standard. The diagnostic efficiencies were compared using χ2 test. Results A total of 86 HPT lesions were confirmed, including 47 lesions in 46 PHPT patients and 39 lesions in 11 SHPT patients. The sensitivities of SPECT/CT, planar, ultrasound and combined imaging (planar plus ultrasound) were 87.21%(75/86), 69.77%(60/86), 65.12%(56/86) and 84.88%(73/86), respectively. The overall sensitivity of SPECT/CT was significantly higher than that of individual planar imaging and that of ultrasound (χ2 values: 4.691 and 7.818, both P<0.05), but similar to that of the combined imaging (χ2=0.044, P>0.05). No significant difference was observed among the specificities of all these modalities (χ2=2.219, P>0.05). For PHPT lesions, the sensitivities of SPECT/CT, planar imaging, combined imaging and ultrasound were 9574%(45/47), 93.62%(44/47), 97.87%(46/47) and 76.60%(36/47), respectively. No statistically significant difference was found in the sensitivity of the former 3 modalities (χ2=1.044, P>0.05), but the sensitivity of ultrasound was the lowest(χ2=16.223, P<0.05). For SHPT, the sensitivities of the corresponding 4 modalities were 76.92%(30/39), 41.03%(16/39), 51.28%(20/39) and 69.23%(27/39), respectively. SPECT/CT was significantly superior to planar imaging and ultrasound(χ2 values: 10.386 and 5.571, both P<0.05), but comparable to the combined imaging(χ2=0.586, P>0.05). Only SPECT/CT could accurately localize 5 ectopic HPT lesions. Conclusion Compared to planar imaging and ultrasound, SPECT/CT has higher sensitivity for SHPT patients, and could provide precise localization for ectopic lesions, thus facilitating patient planning for minimally invasive surgery.
