The mechanism of damage in monocytes with the oxidation inhibitor α-lipoic acid (ALA) was observed under intermittent high glucose condition.The results showed that fluctuating high blood glucose levels led to more damage than that under constant high blood glucose level in monocyte,and antioxidant α-ALA could ameliorate the oxidative stress.The high level of nuclear factor-κB and monocyte chemotactic protein-1 are probably among the factors that cause vascular damage by deposit of monocytes.

Objective To find out the relationship between kidney- yang- deficiency syndrome and the Th1/Th2 expression, and to investigate the effect of kidney- yang warming therap yon the Th1/Th2 expression. Methods Kidney- yang- deficiency rat models were firstly induced by adenine and then were sensitizated by inhalation of ovalbumin to establish allergic rhinitis (AR)models .The treatment group was given Jinkui Shenqi pill. After treatment , the changes of behavior , secretion of nasal cavity and nasal mucosa were observed. The levels of Th1 cytokines IFN- ? , IL- 2 and Th2 cytokines IL- 4 , IL- 5 in serum were determined by ELISA. Results The behavioral score in AR group and kidney- yang- deficiency AR group was higher than that in the treatment group and normal control group ( P

0.05),while loratadine group shows a highly significant treatment efficacy(P

Objective: To explore lipid peroxidation injuries of pancreatic mitochondria and lysosome following severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and the protective effects of gardenia jasminoides ellis (GJE) thereof. Methods: SAP models were induced by retrograde injection of 1.5% sodium deoxycholate. The rats were randomly divided into three groups: sham group, SAP group and GJE group. The changes were measured in superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), membrane fluidity of mitochondria and lysosome in pancreas and succinic dehydrogenase (SDH) in mitochondria, acid phosphatase (ACP) in lysosome.The effects of GJE were also observed. Results: Compared with Sham group, the activity of SOD and membrane fluidity of mitochondria and lysosome were decreased in pancreas, and the content of MDA were increased; the releasing rate of ACP was significantly higher in lysosome; SDH in mitochondria was lower in SAP group(P < 0.01). The above-mentioned indexes were obviously ameliorated in GJE group than those in SAP group(P < 0.01). The correlation analysis indicated that MDA was negatively correlated with SOD, positively correlated with membrane fluidity (P < 0.01). Conclusion: GJE can alleviate lipid peroxidation by getting rid of oxygen free radicals of pancreatic subcellular fraction in the course of SAP, and protect the structure and function of pancreatic subcellular fraction.

Objective To determine the expression profile of serum microRNAs(miRNAs) in early-onset familial Alzheimer's disease (EO-FAD) patients. methods miRNA microarrays were performed to detect the expression profile of serum miRNAs in 2 cases of EO-FAD patients,2 cases of EO-FAD carriers and 2 cases of normal controls.Preliminary bioinformatic analysis was conducted. Result sIt was found that 21 miRNAs were up-regulated and 22 miRNAs were down-regulated in serum of EO-FAD patients,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).miR-5704(P=0.0002),miR-4639-3p(P=0.0195),miR-107(P=0.0204) were markedly up-regulated,miR-5572(P=0.0008),miR-204-3p(P=0.0014),miR-542-5p(P=0.0106) and miR-155-5p(P=0.0240) were markedly down-regulated.Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis suggested that the dysregulated miRNAs may be involved in the mechanism of EO-FAD by affecting neurotrophin signaling pathway.Conclusion miR-5704,miR-4639-3p,miR-107,miR-5572,miR-204-3p,miR-542-5p and miR-155-5p may be used as potential biomarkers of EO-FAD,and involved in the mechanism of EO-FAD by affecting neurotrophin signaling pathway.

Objective:To discuss the influence of ALDH1+and CD133+phenotypic breast cancer stem-like cells in TA2 triple negative breast cancer on promoting epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) occurrence in TA2 mice with triple-negative breast cancer and on their biological behavior. Methods:Flow cytometry was performed to analyze the markers ALDH1 and CD133 in TA2 mice triple nega-tive breast cancer and breast cancer stem-like cells with ALDH1+, ALDH1?, CD133+, and CD133?phenotypes, which were sorted out. Then, the TA2 mice were inoculated with sorted tumor cells according to cell type. The mice were divided into ALDH1+, ALDH1?, CD133+, and CD133-groups. The tumor-growing conditions were observed. A tumor tissue was sliced for the immunohistochemical testing of ALDH1?, CD133?, and EMT-related Twist1, E-cadherin, and VE-cadherin proteins. The expression difference of breast cancer stem cell surface markers ALDH1 and CD133 in triple-negative breast cancer and EMT-related proteins Twist1, E-cadherin, and VE-cad-herin was analyzed. Results:The expression rates of breast cancer stem cell markers ALDH1 and CD133 in TA2 mice triple negative breast cancer were 31.2%and 6.5%, respectively. The tumor growth ability of TA2 mice from ALDH1+group was obviously stronger than that from ALDH1?group. The CD133+group was evidently stronger than CD133?group. The immunohistochemical results showed that ALDH1, Twist1, and VE-cadherin expression levels in the ALDH1+group were evidently higher than that in the ALDH1?group (all P<0.05). E-cadherin expression decreased (P<0.05). CD133?, Twist1, and VE-cadherin expression levels in CD133+group were higher than that in CD133?group (all P<0.05). Conclusion:In TA2 mice triple negative breast cancer, ALDH1+and CD133+phenotypic breast cancer stem-like cells may influence the expression of EMT-related proteins, and promote the formation of triple-negative breast cancer.

Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of epithelial-to-mesenchymal (EMT) in lung squamous cell carcino-ma (LSCC) and to examine the effect of EMT on the invasive and migration abilities of LSCC. Methods:Immunohistochemical stain-ing was performed to determine the expression of E-cadherin, Vimentin, and TGF-β1 in 79 LSCC patients, and the clinical significance was explored. SK-MES-1 lung squamous carcinoma cells were cultured in conditioned medium containing various concentrations of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) for 5 and 10 days. The expression levels of E-cadherin and Vimentin were detected via West-ern blot and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). With different concentrations and induction times, invasion and wound healing assays were performed to evaluate the invasion and migration abilities. Results:E-cadherin expression was significantly lower, whereas Vimentin expression was significantly higher in LSCC with lymph node metastasis than in that without noda metastasis (P<0.05). In the tissues of 79 LSCC patients, TGF-β1 expression was significantly related to lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). Western blot showed that Vimentin expression was higher, whereas E-cadherin expression was lower in TGF-β1 inducing medium with 10 ng/mL SK-MES-1 cells than in the other media. RT-PCR showed similar results. Scratch test and invasion assay both showed that treat-ment of cells with cytokines markedly enhanced the migration and invasion of the cells. Conclusion:Lymph node metastasis of LSCC correlates with EMT. SK-MES-1 cells undergo EMT via TGF-β1 induction, which enhances invasion and migration.
