Objective To investigate the effects of annonaceous acetogenin on proliferation and apoptosis in Raji cells and its mechanism.Methods Raji cells cultured in vitro were divided into control group,annonaceous acetogenin group and adriamycin group.Raji cells were effected by 6.25,12.5,25,50 ?g/mL annonaceous acetogenin.Proliferation of Raji cells were evaluated by MTT assays,apoptosis percentage was assessed by flow cytometry.Caspase-9 protein was detected by immunohistochemistry.Results The Raji cell proliferation rate of annonaceous acetogenin decreased compared with the control,that of 25,50 ?g/mL group were lower than adriamycin group,and it was related to the concentration,relying on the incubating time.The apoptosis rate was higher than control,that of 25,50 ?g/mL group were higher than adriamycin group,and it was related to the concentration and the incubating time.The expression of caspase-9 protein of annonaceous acetogenin group was higher than control,and it had a positively relationship with the concentration and incubating time.Conclusions Annonaceous acetogenin could inhibit cell proliferation in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner in Raji cells,and it may induce Raji cells apoptosis by up-regulating caspase-9 expression.

Objective To explore curative efficacy of Xianlinggubao capsules combined with Lugua polypeptide injection in treatment of vertebral osteoporosis.Methods 90 patients of vertebral osteoporosis from March 2014 to March 2015 in our haspital were selected as research objects and randomly divided into the observation group and control group,with 45 cases in each group.The control group were treated with Lugua polypeptide injection, while the observation group were treated with Xianlinggubao capsules combined with Lugua polypeptide injection.Then bone mineral density, osteocalcin, visual analogue scale (VAS), Oswestry disability index (ODI) score, curative effect in two groups after treatment were compared.Results Ater treatment, bone mineral density, osteocalcin in observation group was than that in control group [(0.99 ±0.13)g/cm2 vs(0.89 ±0.14)g/cm2, (41.05 ±5.30)μg/L vs(35.80 ±5.23)μg/L],the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05); VAS、ODI score in observation group were lower than those in control group[(1.21 ±0.30)分vs(4.65 ±1.08)分、(18.24 ±4.97)% vs(31.26 ±5.73)%],the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).The total effective rate of observation group was statistically higher than that in the control group 95.55%(43/45),the difference was statistically significant vs77.77%( 35/45 ) ( P<0.05 ) .Conclusion Xianlinggubao capsules combined with Lugua polypeptide injection is well for vertebral osteoporosis,which can improve the bone metabolism of patients, promote bone growth and improve treatment efficacy.

To find a new method to identify Mori Cortex and its adulterants by analysis their ITS2 sequence of barcode,total genomic DNA was isolated from Mori Cortex and its adulterants. Nuclear DNA ITS2 sequences were amplified,and purified PCR products were sequenced. Sequence assembly and consensus sequence generation were performed using the CodonCode Aligner V3.0. The Kimura 2-Parameter (K2P) distances were calculated us-ing software MEGA 4.0. Identification analyses were performed using BLAST1, Nearest Distance and neighbor-joining (NJ) methods. The results showed the intra-specific genetic distance of Mori Cortex was 0, which were lower than inter-specific genetic distances between Mori Cortex and its closely related species (0.003-0.343). The ITS2 region is an efficient barcode for identification of Mori Cortex and its closely related species, which provides a scientific basis for fast and accurate identification and new method of Mori Cortex.

Artemisinin and its derivative is a kind of efficient,quick and low toxicity of anti-malarial drug.In recent years,we find that artemisinin drugs can not only against malaria,but also have pharmacological effects of immunosuppression,antiviral and anticancer.A number of studies have confirmed that artemisinin and its derivatives have the radiosensitization effects in nasopharyngeal carcinoma,cervical cancer,lung cancer and glioma,and their mechanisms are related to decreasing Weel protein expression,increasing Cyclin B1 protein expression,blocking G2-M phase and cell apoptosis.

mRNA in ARE and GW9662 group were 2.276 ±0.534 and 0.362 ±0.026,respectively.Compared with control group,PPARγmRNA level in both of ARE and GW9662 group reached statistical significance (t =4.785,P =0.001 ;t =2.395,P =0.044).PPARγprotein expression in ARE group,GW9662 +ARE group and control group were 27 688.33 ±3 593.06,21 816.00 ±1 644.07,17 716.33 ±2 273.95,respectively,which was higher in ARE group than that in control and GW+ARE group (t =5.159,P =0.001 ;t =3.038,P =0.016). NF-κB p65 mRNA expression in GW9662 +ARE group was 0.346 ±0.149,which in ARE group and GW9662 group were 0.392 ±0.1 87 and 1 .720 ±0.338,respec-tively.The differences of NF-κB p65 mRNA expression level between ARE,and control or GW9662 group were statistically significant (t =3.592,P =0.007;t =7.851 ,P =0.000).While,the differences of Caspase-3 mRNA and protein expression levels among the four groups were not statistically significant (F =1 .1 81 ,P =0.376;F =0.647,P >0.05).Conclusion ARE may restrain NF-κB through up-regulating PPARγto inhibit the proliferation and invasive potential of LLC in vitro, which suggests that PPAR-γmay be a novel therapeutic target for lung cancer.

Tumor radioresistance is the leading cause of clinical radiotherapy failure and disease progression.Researches show that the occurrence of radioresistance is related to the cell cycle arrest,relevant gene change,tumor microenvironment change,autophagy,tumor stem cells and other factors.Studying the mechanism of radioresistance and looking for an effective method to avoid it is the key to improve the effect of radiotherapy,which can provide the probability of the prognosis of radiosensitivity.

AIM:As a factor that can improve cell growth,there are few studies about the effect of insulin-like growth factor Ⅰ(IGF-Ⅰ) on the apoptosis of endothelial cell.The study investigated the inhibition and mechanism of IGF-Ⅰ on the apoptosis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVEC) induced by oxidized low density lipoprotein(ox-LDL).METHODS:The experiment was performed in the Institute of Cardiovascular Disease,Union Hospital of Huazhong University of Science and Technology from December 2006 to July 2007.①Fresh human umbilical cord was obtained(the informed consent) to isolate and culture HUVECs.The cells were divided into four groups.Except the control group,HUVEC cells were cultured with IGF-Ⅰ(1?10-9mmol/L),ox-LDL(200 mg/L)+IGF-Ⅰ(1?10-9mmol/L),and ox-LDL(200 mg/L),respectively after cultured for 24 hours.②Cell viability was determined by MTT assay,morphology and apoptosis by DAPI fluorescence staining,and expressions of caspase-3 were analyzed.RESULTS:①Ox-LDL could significantly inhibit HUVEC cell proliferation.After treated with both IGF-Ⅰand ox-LDL,the cell proliferation increased obviously compared with the cells treated with ox-LDL(P

To improve 3-ketosteroid-△1-dehydrogenase (KSDH) activity and the transformation level for androst-4-ene-3,17-dione,3-ketosteroid-△1 -dehydrogenase gene (ksdD) from Arthrobacter simplex was cloned into plasmid pWB980 and expressed in B. subtilis WB600 under the control of promoter P43. The molecular weight of expressed enzyme was about 55kDa by SDS-PAGE analysis. The activitities assayed by spectrophotometrical method of intracellular and extracellular soluble enzyme were 110 ± 0.5mU and 15 ± 0.6mU per milligram of protein respectively. The transformation rate of androst-4-ene-3,17-dione by the B. subtilis recombinant cells was 45.3%. Compared with Arthrobacter simplex, the enzyme activity of KSDH expressed in B. subtilis was improved about 30 fold, and the transformation level of androst-4-ene-3,17-dione by the B.subtilis recombinant cells was improved about 10 fold. The recombinant B. subtilis cells used in biotransformation of steroids provided a new way for steroid medicines production.
