Objective The objective of this study was to investigate the role of sulindac in sensitization effects of NF-κB on apoptosis induced by TNF-α in human breast cancer.Methods The human breast cancer MCF-7 cell line was added sulindal in the logarithmic growth phase and the final concentrations of sulindac were 0.5 and 1.0 mmol/L.The cells in control group was cultured without adding succinic acid.After sulindac treatment for 48 h,flow cytometry,MTT and Western blotting were used to analyze the effect and mechanism of cell growth in MCF-7 cells.Results The inhibitory rate of cell proliferation was(29.17±1.23)% and(38.15±1.51)% in MCF-7 cells treated with 0.5 and 1.0 mmol/L of Sulindac for 48 h,respectively,when compared to the control group(1.15 ± 0.02)%(P<0.05).Compared with the control group,0.5 and 1.0 mmol/L of sulindac were significantly increased the G0/G1 phase in MCF-7 cells(P<0.05).The apoptosis rate of sulindac in MCF-7 cells was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).The expression levels of TNF-α were(2.09±0.67)% and(1.18±0.09)% in the concentrations of 0.5 and 1.0mmol/L sulindac,respectively,in MCF-7 cells when compared to the control group(7.42±0.56)%.Conclusion Sulindac has a certain effect on the growth of human breast cancer cells,which can promote the prolongation of cell cycle at the G0/G1 phase and improve sensitization of apoptosis.This mechanism may be related to the inhibition of TNF-α activity.

Objective To assess the role of E-cadherin (CDH1) promoter methylation in bladder carcinogenesis by meta-analysis. Methods The relevant database were searched by the retrieval strategy of Cochrane network. All included studies were collected following data:the first author’s surname, publication year of article, country, language of publication, design of study, sample size, ethnicity, histological subtypes, methylation detection method and genotype frequencies etc. This meta-analysis was performed using the STATA 12.0 software. The crude odds ratio (OR) with 95%confidence interval (CI) was calculated. Results Ten case-control studies were included in this meta-analysis. The methylation frequency of CDH1 was detected in 620 bladder cancer tissues and 341 normal or cancerous tissues. Results showed that the methylation frequency of CDH1 was significantly higher in bladder cancer tissue than that of normal or cancerous tissue (OR=3.09, 95%CI:1.13~8.50, P=0.029). Furthermore, the ethnicity-stratified analysis revealed that the methylation frequency of CDH1 was significantly higher in bladder cancer tissue of Asian populations than that of normal or cancerous tissue (OR=3.85, 95%CI:1.46~10.14, P=0.006), but no such association was found in Caucasian populations(OR=2.22, 95%CI:0.38-12.91, P=0.375). The subgroup analysis based on the detection methods revealed that there was a statistically significant difference in the methylation frequency of CDH1 between bladder cancer tissue and adjacent tissues and normal tissues under the MSP subgroup (P<0.001), while such association was not observed under the Q-MSP subgroup (P=0.818). Conclusion Pro?moter methylation of CDH1 gene may be involved in the occurrence and development of bladder cancer, which may serve as a biomarker for diagnosis and prognosis of bladder cancer.

Objective: To study whether the bond strength between enamel and composite resin could be enhanced by intraoral sand abrasive. Methods: Ten human maxillary first incisior teeth were divided into 2 groups The experimental group was sandblasted with 30 ?m Al 2O 3 (CoJet Sand, pressure 300 kPa) from a distance of 5 mm for 5 seconds, and the control group were not sandblasted. The Herculite composite resin composite cylinders were bonded with Coltene system. Bonded specimens were stored in 37 ℃ distilled water for 24 h, then were subjected to shear force in a testing machine Stress at failure was calculated in Mpa, and mode of failure was recorded. The Student t test was applied to the data. Results: The shear bond strength of experimental groups was (33.0?1.8) MPa , and that of control groups was (26.7?5.2) MPa ,there was significant difference between these two groups. All the adhesive failures happened at the enamel composite resin interface , except that cohesive failure happened in one sandblasted specimen. Conclusion: Intraoral sandblasting could significantly enhance the shear bond strength between enamel and composite resin.

Objecitve To study the inhibitory effect of pioglitazone on inflammation factors in patients with bladder cancer. Methods A total of 100 consecutives diagnosed as bladder cancer from Februray 2013 to Februray 2014 were individed ran-domly into experiment and control groups and each of 50 cases.All patients received the appropriate operation or chemother-apeutic regimens,and the patients in experiment group received pioglitazone (15 mg/d×12 weeks)at the same time.Then to compare expression differences of high-sensitive C reactive protein (hs-CRP),tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha),in-terleukin (IL-6)and HOMA-IR,MCP-1,MIP-1 levels.Results The levels of hs-CRP,TNF-αand IL-6 in the two groups af-ter treatment were all lower (P <0.05),and in experiment groups they were significantly lower than control group (P <0.05).The levels of HOMA-IR,MCP-1 and MIP-1 in the two groups after treatment were all lower (P <0.05),and in ex-periment groups they were significantly lower than control group(P <0.05).The complication rate in the two groups were no statistical difference (P >0.05).Conclusion Pioglitazone could improve clinical effect and prognosis by lowing inflam-mation factors including hs-CRP,TNF-α,IL-6,HOMA-IR,MCP-1 and MIP-1 in patients with bladder cancer.

Objective To investigate the way to accurately delineate gross tumor volume (GTV) of high grade gliomas(HGG) for intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) by using computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) image fusion technique. Methods CT and MRI images were fused from 19 patients. The GTV of each patient were independently delineated by one chief doctor and one resident doctor on CT and MRI image. The GTV contoured on CT (GTVCT), MRI (GTVMRI) were measured, and composite volumes (GTVCT+MRI) were the sum of CT-defined GTV and MRI-defined GTV. The differences of these volumes were compared. Results Whether chief or resident doctors delineated, all were GTVMRI >GTVCT(P <0.050). The percentages of GTVMRI on GTVCT+MRI were (98.57±7.00)% by chief doctors, and (97.84±10.00)% by resident doctors. Compared the difference between GTVCT and GTVMRI in postoperative patients and preoperative patients, P =0.046, and the difference between chief doctors and resident doctors was statistically significant for GTV defined by CT (P =0.020), but not by MRI and composite image (P >0.050).Conclusion The GTV of HGG patients must be delineated on both CT image and MRI image, including using CT and MRI image fusion. But the composite volumes(GTVCT+MRI) should be the sum of CT-defined GTV and MRI-defined GTV. Especially for the postoperative patients,delineating GTV should be taken more attention. And the GTV should be delineated by doctors with full experiences.

Objective:To determine the relationship between serum resistin levels and carotid intima media(IMT)thickness in patients with essential hypertension. Methods:This study consisted of 272 patients with essential hypertension. The patients were divided into three groups according to their serum resistin levels. Group 1,n=91,serum resistin level 1.233-3.701 ng/ml;Group 2,n=91,serum resistin level 3.728-8.777 ng/ml;and Group 3,n=90,serum resistin level 8.809-28.658 ng/ml. Results:The carotid IMT and maximum carotid IMT of Group 3 were the highest in three groups.(P<0.05).As shown in multivariate analysis for factors affecting carotid IMT,serum resistin level(β=0.220,t=5.793,P=0.000)was independently associated with the carotid IMT after controlling the age,blood glucose,uric acid,low-density lipoprotein cholesterol,systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure. Serum resistin level(β=0.189,t=4.733,P=0.000)was independently associated with the maximum carotid IMT after controlling the age,blood glucose,body mass index,diastolic blood pressure,diabetes mellitus,high sensitivity C reactive protein,total cholesterol and triglyceride. Conclusion:Serum resistin was independently associated with the increased carotid IMT in essential hypertension patients.
