International Journal of Surgery 2013;(4):268-271
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas is a type of biliary epithelial cell carcinoma.Hepatolithiasis,viral hepatitis,primary sclerosing cholangitis,Caroli disease,parasitic infections are its risk factors.In recent years,the incidence of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas is gradually increased.Ultrasound,CT,MRI can be used to diagnose.The main way to treat intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas is comprehensive treatment based on liver resection.There is still some controversy in liver transplantation.Adjuvant therapy will play a more and more important role in patients who unable to accept surgery.

Targeting cell apoptosis is currently the most promising therapy for cancer treatment. The BH3-only protein, which is a member of Bcl-2 family, can bind to the pro-survival members of the family and neutralize their functional activities to induce apoptosis (ie, to isolate pro-apoptotic members of the Bcl-2 family). BH3 mimetics, a kind of small molecule compounds, has the ability to mimic the BH3-only protein to induce apoptosis. The prototype of BH3 mimetics is ABT-737, who can selectively targets on BCL-XL, BCL-2 and BCL-W (but not MCL-1 and A1). ABT-263, a derivative of ABT-737, has a better performance of inducing apoptosis and inhibiting the growth of tumor in clinical trials. At this stage, some presumably BH3 mimetics has entered the clinical stage, while a large part of them is still being characterized and tested. Basing on the mechanism of BH3-only protein, this review summarize a variety of BH3 mimetics which have been widely recognized, and show the latest developments of newly diagnosed BH3 mimetics in the field.

Objective To investigate the effects of methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP) on invasion and migration in breast cancer cells.Methods Human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 cells were treated with MTAPtargeted siRNA to diminish MTAP mRNA.MCF-7 cells proliferation was evaluated by cell counting kit-8,the analysis of cells invasion and migration was performed using Transwell chamber.The expressions of MTAP and matrix metalloproteinase 1 (MMP1) in cell extracts were detected by Western blotting.The experimental divided into blank contrd group,negative control group,MTAP-siRNA experimental group.Results The MCF-7 cells growth was promoted after knockdown the MTAP mRNA.MATP-siRNA experimental group 450 nm absorbance values at 24h,48 hand72 h of the control group were (112.3±11.9)%,(144.4±8.4)%,(169.3±9.4)% respectively.Cell invasion analysis by Transwell chamber showed 570 nm absorbance values were 0.49 ± 0.06 (control),0.45 ± 0.07 (negative control) and 0.87 ± 0.07 (MTAP-siRNA) respectively.Cell migration analysis by Transwell chamber showed 570 nm absorbance values were 0.46 ± 0.06 (control),0.49 ± 0.08 (negative control)and 0.75 ± 0.07 (MTAP-siRNA) respectively.The expression of MMP1 in MCF-7 cells was upregulated after knockdown the MTAP mRNA.Conclusion The knockdown of MTAP in MCF-7 cell can increase the cells invasion and migration,and this may involve the the MMP1.

There are no intuitive and unified standards for selecting features in existing protein gel image point matching method, for which an analysis method based on similarity map is proposed. Firstly, the definition and generation methods of similarity map were presented. Secondly, trait and merits of features such as coordinate similarity, shape-context similarity and morphology similarity were analyzed using similarity map method. Finally, comprehensive utilization of multi-features named product-method which has a better effect than mean-method was proposed based on the results. Many experiments using different 2-DE gel images were carried out to prove the validity of similarity map and product-method. The results showed that similarity map could be used for intuitional, effective analysis of matching performance and to guide the selection and comprehensive utilization of multi-features.

In order to improve the efficiency of protein spots detection, a fast detection method based on CUDA was proposed. Firstly, the parallel algorithms of the three most time-consuming parts in the protein spots detection algorithm: image preprocessing, coarse protein point detection and overlapping point segmentation were studied. Then, according to single instruction multiple threads executive model of CUDA to adopted data space strategy of separating two-dimensional (2D) images into blocks, various optimizing measures such as shared memory and 2D texture memory are adopted in this study. The results show that the operative efficiency of this method is obviously improved compared to CPU calculation. As the image size increased, this method makes more improvement in efficiency, such as for the image with the size of 2,048 x 2,048, the method of CPU needs 52,641 ms, but the GPU needs only 4,384 ms.
