Background and purpose: More than 90% of cancer patients are incurable because of drug resistance. Activation of PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway in breast cancer, as a target for chemotherapy drugs has become a hot topic of breast cancer treatment. This study aimed to investigate the effect and mechanism of XCL1 on the proliferation of drug-resistant breast cancer cell, whether is related with the mTOR signaling pathway. Methods:Established gemcitabine-resistant breast cancer cell lines (MDA-MB-231/Gem). CCK8 to detect the proliferation of MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-231/Gem, RT-PCR and ELISA to determine the XCL1 expression level of the two cell lines, Western blot to detect the expression of mTOR. Results:Compared with MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-231/Gem showed an enhanced proliferative capacity. The expression of XCL1 was increased in the resistant cell lines. Both of protein level and phosphorylation level of mTOR increased in drug-resistant cell lines. The MDA-MB-231 added exogenous XCL1 for 24 h, showed an enhanced cell proliferation. Adding anti-XCL1 antibodies in MDA-MB-231/Gem could reduce cell proliferation and treating MDA-MB-231/Gem with the mTOR inhibitor could also reduce cell proliferation, as well as the XCL1 expression level. Conclusion:XCL1 promotes the proliferation of drug-resistant breast cancer cells mediated by activation of the mTOR pathway.

Objective To investigate the effect of tadpole extract(T871 3) on tumor cells and its mechanism. Methods We studied the effects of T871 3 on proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis of HL 60 cells by cytomorphological observation, cytochemistry and TUNEL method. We also examined gene expression during the induction of apoptosis and differentiation in tadpole extract treated HL 60 cells by in situ hybridization and intact cell mRNA dot blot techniques. Results 1 T871 3 was able to inhibite HL 60 cells proliferation. 2 T871 3 was able to induce HL 60 cells to differentiate along monocyte macrophage lineage at low concentration, and apoptosis at higher concentration. 3 The differentiation of HL 60 cells was accompanied by downregulations of c myc,c myb gene expression, The apoptosis of HL 60 cells was accompanied by downregulations of c\|myc bcl 2 gene expression, suggesting that these genes may be involved in the apoptosis and differentiation process. Conclusion Tadpole extract may have effects on HL 60 cells through changing the oncogene expression. [

Objective To investigate the relationship between cardiovascular risk factors and arterial elasticity in elderly hypertensive patients.Methods 253 subjects were divided into two groups:hypertension group (n=141) and non-hypertension group (n =112).Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (C-FPWV),carotid-radial PWV (C-RPWV),height and weight were determined.Fasting plasma levels of blood glucose (BG),blood lipids,insulin,endothelins (ET),nitric oxide (NO) and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) were assessed.Results C-FPWV and CRPWV were higher in hypertension group than in non-hypertension group [(11.7±1.9) m/s vs.(9.7±1.1)m/s,(11.7±1.7) m/s vs.(9.4±1.1)m/s,t=8.43 and-6.30,both P<0.01].Body mass index (BMI),systolic blood pressure (SBP),diastolic blood pressure (DBP),levels of triglyceride (TG),BG,ET,NO and hsCRP,HOMA-IR had significant differences between the two groups (t=-5.27,-4.18,-6.00,6.29,-4.18,-4.86,-3.41,respectively,all P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that CFPWV was correlated with SBP,age,DBP,fasting BG,NO,ET,TG,HOMA IR,cholesterol (CHO),hsCRP (r=0.534,0.374,0.340,0.338,-0.306,0.242,0.228,0.225,-0.218,0.178,respectively,all P<0.05); C-RPWV was correlated with age,DBP,SBP,NO,TG (r=0.312,0.319,0.241,-0.197,0.151,respectively,all P<0.05).Multiple regression analysis demonstrated that C-FPWV=4.640 + 0.081× HOMA IR+ 0.047× age+0.035×SBP+0.29×TG-0.017×NO+0.014×ET+0.132×hsCRP,r2=0.514; CRPWV=3.161+0.034×age+0.033×DBP+0.313×fastingBG+0.013×ET-0.013×NO,r2=0.390.Conclusions The decreases of arterial elasticity are closely related with endothelial function,insulin resistance,levels of blood lipids and hsCRP in elderly patients with hypertension.

This paper was aimed to study the method of rapid determination of total flavonoids in Chrysanthemum of different processing methods by near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). The Chrysanthemum was dried by three different processes. The three methods were directly drying, drying after steamed and drying after fry, respectively. The determination of total flavonoids in Chrysanthemum by different processing methods was produced by using UV-Vis spectrophotometry. Collecting the NIRS spectra of Chrysanthemum, the quantitative analysis model of total flavonoids content in Chrysanthemum of different processing methods was established by partial least square (PLS) and the model was validated. The correlation coefficient (R2), the root-mean-square error of calibration (RMSEC) and the root-mean-square error of prediction (RMSEP) were 0.996 19, 0.104 and 0.168, respectively. The correlation coefficient of predication (r) was 0.979 3 which state that the prediction was accurate. The method of NIRS had the advantage of fast determination, simple operation and high accuracy of prediction, and could be used for rapid determination of total flavonoids content in Chrysanthemum of different processing methods.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons ( PAHs) are ubiquitous environmental pollutants, whose carcinogenicity is determinated.The mechanism of their carcinogenicity: PAHs are able to combine with aryl hydrocarbon hydrocarbon receptor ( AhR ) , resulting in some toxicity and carcinogenicity.AhR is a ligand-dependent activation transcription factor, which is activated by a large variety of ligands, regulating the expression of a series of gene involved in metabolism, and participating in important biological processes, such as singal transduction, cell proliferation,differentiation and apoptosis,and so on.Besides, it's closely related with the tumor development.Thus, it will provide a new approach for cancer prevention and treatment to study the role of PAHs and AhR in the development of tumor.

Objective: Our purpose was to investigate the changes of adrenocorticotropin (ACTH), Cortisol (Cs) and prolactin (PRL) levels in peripheral blood of patients with active systemie lupus erythematosus(SLE). Methods: Radioimmunoassy. Results: Active SLE patients had a low level of ACTH,Cs in peak phase and a high level of PRL. Consequentaly, the ratio of PRL/Cs increased, which was positively correlative to active index of SLE. Conclusion: Endogenetic secretion in sufficiency of glucocorticalsteroid and increase of PRL have important function in the initiation and development of SLE.

Objective:To study the stability of compound Kushen mixed liquid to provide reliable evidence for safe clinical drug application.Methods:Compound Kushen injection was mixed respectively with 0.9% sodium chloride injection and 5% glucose injection,and then placed under the different conditions for 0,1,2,4,8,12,24 and 48 h.HPLC was conducted to determine the content changes of four components in compound Kushen mixed liquid,and the appearance,pH and insoluble particles were observed as well.Results:The mixed liquid of compound Kushen with 0.9% sodium chloride injection was stable in 48 h without the influence of light and temperature.However,the mixed liquid of compound Kushen with 5% glucose injection had poorer stability with storage time shorter than 12 h at room temperature and 2 h at high temperature.Conclusion:The stability of the mixed liquid of compound Kushen is closely related to the pH value of solvent.0.9% Sodium chloride injection is recommended as the solvent,and the mixed liquid should be used up in 48 h.
