Objective To investigate the effect of resveratrol on the proliferation and invasion of human pancreatic cancer PANC-1 cells. Methods Five groups including blank control group, 0. 1% dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) group and resveratrol groups (50, 100, 200 μmol/L) were established. The proliferation of PANC-1 cells was detected by MTT assay. The apoptosis and cell cycle change were analyzed by flow cytometry. The invasive ability of PANC-1 cells was observed with a Transwell cell culture chamber. The expressions of Bax, Bcl-2,matrix metalloproteinases 2 (MMP-2) and 9 (MMP-9) of the PANC-1 cells were assayed by real-time quantitative PCR and Western blot. All data were analyzed using the analysis of variance. Results ( 1 ) The inhibition rate of resveratrol on the proliferation of PANC-1 cells was 0 in the blank control group, 3.25% ±0.42% in the 0. 1% DMSO group, 13.23% ± 1.68% in the 50 μmol/L of resveratrol group, 42.25% ± 3.20% in the 100 μmol/L of resveratrol group, and 56.94% ±5.31% in the 200 μmol/L of resveratrol group. There was a significant difference in the inhibition rate among the five groups (F=460. 10, P<0.05). (2) The apoptosis rate was 0.05% ±0.03% in the blank control group, 3.39% ± 1.77% in the 0. 1% DMSO group, 6.92% ± 1.85% in the 50 μmol/L of resveratrol group, 19.05% ± 2.01% in the 100 μmol/L of resveratrol group, and 27. 17% ±6.43% in the 200 μmol/L of resveratrol group. There was a significant difference in the apoptosis rate among the five groups (F = 38.84, P < 0.05). (3) There was no significant effect of 0. 1% DMSO on the cell cycle of PANC-1 cells. The number of PANC-1 cells in the G0/G1 and S phase was increased. (4) The average number of invading PANC-1 cells was 61 ± 13 in the blank control group, 54 ± 13 in the 0. 1% DMSO group, 48 ± 15 in the 50 μmol/L of resveratrol group, 23 ±6 in the 100 μ mol/L of resveratrol group and 18 ±7 in the 200 μmol/L of resveratrol group. There was a significant difference in the number of invading PANC-1 cells among the five groups (F = 69.08, P < 0.05 ). (5) There were up-regulated mRNA and protein expressions of Bax and down-regulated mRNA and protein expressions of Bcl-2, and the expressions of MMP-2 and MMP-9 of the PANC-1 cells were inhibited in the resveratrol groups. The changes of the protein expressions of Bax, Bcl-2, MMP-2, MMP-9 were consistent with the changes of the mRNA expressions of the four indexes. Conclusion Resveratrol can significantly inhibit the proliferation and invasion, as well as induce apoptosis of PANC-1 cells in vitro.

BACKGROUND: Twin-block appliance has been confirmed to efficiently change hard tissue and the profile of soft tissue.Whether a linear relationship exists between soft tissue and hard tissue changes remains unclear.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the face convexity changes of soft and hard tissues after Twin-block appliance therapy and compare with controls.METHODS: Thirty-one class Ⅱ division 1 malocclusion subjects with hand-wrist radiographs in FG-G stage were selected.Among the 31 patients,17 received Twin-block appliance therapy,serving as experimental group,and the remaining 14 subjects abandoned treatment,serving as control group.Cephalometric radiographs of each included subject were taken prior to and after treatment or observation.Face convexity of soft and hard tissues,as well as the face convexity changes,was compared between the experimental and control groups.Linear regression equation was employed to analyze the linear association between soft-and hard-tissue changes.Regression equations of experimental and control groups were compared.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Prior to and after Twin-block appliance therapy,a significant correlation existed between the position changes of superior and inferior alveolar sockets relative to the nose and mandible,and the position changes of upper and lower lip pits relative to the nose and mandible,i.e.,there was a linear correlation between A-E change and Ss-E change,and between B-E change and Si-E change.The largest Pearson's correlation coefficient(0.839)appeared between Si-E change and B-E change,indicating the best correlativity between these two changes.Statistical analysis revealed that the linear equations of face convexity changes of soft and hard tissues after Twin-block appliance therapy were Si-E=0.745 B-E,Ss-E=0.276 A-E.These linear equations would be helpful to explain mandible growth and face convexity change after Twin-block appliance therapy and predict the prognosis of face convexity change.

Background The mitochondrial Na+/Ca2+exchanger, NCLX, plays an important role in the balance between Ca2+influx and efflux across the mitochondrial inner membrane in endothelial cells. Mitochondrial metabolism is likely to be affected by the activity of NCLX because Ca2+activates several enzymes of the Krebs cycle. It is currently believed that mitochondria are not only centers of energy produc-tion but are also important sites of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain receptor 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation. Methods&Results This study focused on NCLX function, in rat aortic endothelial cells (RAECs), induced by glucose. First, we detected an increase in NCLX expression in the endothelia of rats with diabetes mellitus, which was induced by an injection of streptozotocin. Next, colocalization of NCLX expression and mitochondria was detected using confocal analysis. Suppression of NCLX expression, using an siRNA construct (siNCLX), enhanced mitochondrial Ca2+influx and blocked efflux induced by glucose. Un-expectedly, silencing of NCLX expression induced increased ROS generation and NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Conclusions These findings suggest that NCLX affects glucose-dependent mitochondrial Ca2+signaling, thereby regulating ROS generation and NLRP3 in-flammasome activation in high glucose conditions. In the early stages of high glucose stimulation, NCLX expression increases to compensate in order to self-protect mitochondrial maintenance, stability, and function in endothelial cells.
