Objective To study the effects of Pervanadate(Per) on BET-2 cells cell cycle arrest and apoptosis induced by ionizing radiation. Methods The BET-2 cells were radiated with 0, 1, 3, 5, 7, 10 Gy and divided into PTP(protein tyrosine phosphatases)-specific inhibitor Per-treated group and non-pervanadate group(served as a control) and then incubated after ?-ray irradiation. Cell cycle and apoptosis were measured by FCM and Hematoxylin-Eosin staining at different time phases. Results G2/M phase arrest and apoptosis were induced in a pattern of dose-effect and time-course after irradiation in the BET-2 cells. In Per-treated group, G2/M phase arrest increased more notably, and apoptosis decreased markedly. Conclusions These studies suggested that Pervanadate potentialy enhance the ratio and prolong the term of G2/M phase arrest, and facilitate the damaged hematopoietic cells to be repaired, remarkably prevent radiated-cells from apoptosis.

AIM:Nitroxyl ( HNO) increases myofilament Ca 2+responsiveness relative to increases in intracel-lular Ca2+in cardiac muscle.In this study, we further investigated this effect of HNO on trabecular muscles from phospho-lamban knockout ( PLB-KO) and wide-type ( WT ) mice using a novel HNO donor , 1-nitrosocyclohexyl acetate ( NCA ) . METHODS:Trabecular muscles were dissected from the right ventricles of the rat hearts and mounted between a force transducer and a motor arm.The muscles were superfused with K-H solution (pH 7.4) at room temperature.Fura-2 was loaded into the trabecular muscles via electrophoresis .The length of the sarcomere was set to 2.2~2.3μm.During stead-y-state activations, the maximal Ca2+-activated force and Ca2+required for 50% activation were measured.RESULTS:The intracellular Ca 2+transients and force of the PLB-KO muscles at baseline were higher than those of the WT muscles and exhibited a negative force-frequency relationship (FFR).NCA (2.5μmol/L) increased systolic force in both PLB-KO group and WT group at any given [Ca2+]o.However, there was more dramatic increase in the force development due to moderate increases in the intracellular Ca 2+transients in the WT muscles when external Ca 2+increased from 1.5 to 4.5 mmol/L under NCA.NCA did not affect the negative FFR in PLB-KO muscle.Steady-state force-Ca2+relations obtained from skinned muscles were not different between the 2 groups, while NCA increased Ca2+responsiveness in skinned mus-cles from both PLB-KO and WT mice.CONCLUSION:HNO increases force development in both PLB-KO and WT mus-cles as a result of increases in myofilament Ca 2+responsiveness .The increased intracellular Ca 2+transients are accompa-nied by greater force development in WT mice , suggesting that HNO improves Ca 2+activation and establishes HNO as a positive inotropic agent with novel mechanisms .

Objective To investigate the protective effects of the scallop skirt glycosaminoglycan (SS-GAG) in vitro on the endothelial cell damaged by oxygen free radical and the mechanism of its anti-atherosclerotic effects. Methods The endothelial cells of human umbilical vein (HUVEC)were cultured in vitro, and the damage model of endothelial cells was established by oxygen free radicals . After the damage of HUVEC by Fenton reaction, the effects of SS-GAG on the proliferative activity of HUVEC were observed by the methods of MTT chroma-tometry ,the influence of SS-GAG on lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release was studied by chromatometry and the effects of SS-GAG on secretion of endothelins and angiotensin Ⅱ were observed by the methods of radio-immunity. Results Compared with the control group, proliferation activity of damage group cell lowered obviously ,LDH release in culture media,and the excretion of endothelins and angiotensin Ⅱ in HUVEC rised obviously. In the groups pre-treated with SS-GAG, cell proliferation activity, the LDH release and the excretions of ET and Ang Ⅱ showed obvious differences compared with model group. Conclusion SS-GAG reduce the damage of endothelial cell caused by oxygen free radicals, restrain the secretion ofendothelins and angiotensin Ⅱ . These results indicate that SS-GAG has protective effects on the endothelial cells damaged by oxygen free redicals and the anti-atherosclerotic mechanism of SS-GAG was related to its protective effects on the endothelial cells.

Objective To evaluate the reliability and validity of Bowel Function Index applied to assess the constipation induced by strong opioid drugs for patients with cancer pain.Methods 126 patients with constipation induced by strong opioid drugs for pain caused by cancer were selected.BFI,Patient Assessment of Constipation Symptoms(PAC-SYM) and clinical observations were used to collect data which were conducted for reliability analysis,correlation analysis and tests for several independent samples to evaluate the reliability and validity.Results The internal consistency determined by Cronbach αt was 0.86 for the total BFI score.Significant correlations were found among BFI,PAC-SYM and clinical observations.The BFI total score and each item scores of three groups all showed significant differences.Conclusions The Chinese version of BFI is a simple,valid and reliable,clinically relevant tool to assess the constipation induced by strong opioid drugs for pain caused by cancer.

Objective To investigate the different impacts of the components of metabolic syndrome (MS) on cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors and Framingham risk value (FRV) in newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients without coronary heart disease (CHD).Methods A total of 212 newly-diagnosed T2DM patients was divided into three groups based on the components of MS,including body mass index (BMI),triglyceride (TG),high density lipoproteins cholesterol (HDL-C),and mean arterial pressure (MAP) tertile,respectively.The general CVD risk factors [smoking,BMI,TG,HDL-C,total cholesterol (TC),low density lipoproteins cholesterol (LDL-C),HbA1 C,homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR),and FRV] were compared among the groups.Logistic regression analysis was used to observe the different impact of MS components on CVD risk.Results With the increasing of BMI,TG and MAP tertiles,all the CVD risk factors and the ratio of FRV middle-risk group or high-risk group had the tendency of augmentation.With the increasing of HDL-C tertiles,all the CVD risk factors and the ratio of FRV middle-risk group or high-risk group was in downtrend.Binary logistic regression analysis indicted that BMI,systolic pressure,diastolic pressure,HbA1 c and TG were risk factors of FRV non-low-risk group (middle-risk and high-risk groups),HDL-C was the protective factor.The odds ratios (ORs) of BMI,systolic pressure,diastolic pressure,HbA1 c,TG and HDL-C were 2.794 (95% CI:2.390-2.408),2.601 (95 % CI:1.974-3.701),1.476 (95 % CI:1.231-2.048),2.964 (95 % CI:1.925-3.282),1.464(95% CI:0.934-2.294),and 0.732(95% CI:0.023-0.962),respectively.Logistic stepwise regression analysis indicated that systolic pressure,BMI,HbA1 C,and HDL-C were entered into the regression equation,and the partial regression coefficient was 0.784,1.213,1.679,and-0.854,respectively (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01).Conclusions All the components of MS in newly-diagnosed T2DM were correlated with CVD risk factors.However,they should be weighed differently.
