The values of right and left ventricular ejec-tion fraction (RVEF, LVEF) of 10 normal sub-ject and 44 patients with chronic obstructive pul-monary disease (COPD) were measured with thenon-multigated equilibrium method with NuclearMultiple Function Instrument. The results showthat, the mean RVEF in cor pulmonale was signifi-cantly lower than that in normal subjects. UsingRVEF

Objective To implore the characteristics of epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT) in human prostate cancer stem progenitor (S/P) cells isolated from LNCaP cell lines.Methods The S/P cells were obtained through florescence-activated cell sorting (FACS).Western blot and immunofluorescence assay were used to detect the S/P cells' EMT markers expression,such as E Cadherin,N Cadherin,Vimentin and Snail.Soft agar assay was used to detect the tumorigenesis ability of S/P cells.Cell migration assay was used to detect the migration ability of S/P cells.Results Compared with non S/P cells,the expressions of EMT markers,such as N Cadherin,Vimentin and Snail,were increased in S/P cells,while the expressions of epithelial marker and E Cadherin were decreased in S/P cells.After cultured for three weeks,S/P cells and non S/P cells both clonally grew.The colony numbers were (18.34±1.21) and (82.27±7.54),respectively (t =8.617,P =0.001).After cultured for 48 hours,the migration cells number was (25.33±5.13) in non S/P cells and (74.33±7.64) in S/P cells (t =7.953,P =O.001).Conclusions Human prostate cancer S/P cells isolated from LNCaP cell line have some characteristics of EMT,such as stronger tumorigenesis and migration ability,which could promote tumor invasion and metastasis.

Objective To investigate the effect of VEGF ASODN in vitro and in vivo on the biological characteristics of human prostate cancer PC3 cells and its effect in xenotransplanted tumors in nude mice by local ASODN injection.MethodsVEGF ASODN was delivered into PC3 cells by Oligofectamine.There were three experimental groups: VEGF ASODN,VEGF ODN and control.Soft agar assay and matrigel invasion assay were used to measure cellular transformation and invasion ability,respectively.Tumor formation assay in nude mice was used to evaluate the effect of VEGF ASODN on proliferation of PC3 cells in vivo.The xenotransplanted prostate tumor model in nude mice was established and the effect of local ASODN injection on the inhibition of tumor growth in vivo was examed.ResultsThe soft agar colony numbers for control,ODN,and ASODN treated cells were 53.67±5.86,52.33±6.43 and 26.00±4.58,respectively (F =13.73,P＜0.01).The numbers of invaded cells for three group were 45.60±5.53,42.35±6.21 and 18.37±3.52,respectively (F =14.18,P ＜0.01).Tumor cells transfected with VEGF ASODN proliferated more slowly than other groups.28 days later after tumor cells were injected into nude mice,the tumor sizes of three groups were (1330.32±81.38) mm3,(1267.64±120.26) mm3 and (641.83±58.34) mm3 (F =17.26,P ＜0.01).After treating the transplanted tumor with VEGF ASODN or control oligos for four weeks,the tumor weight of three groups was (1.25±0.08) g,(1.17±0.06) g and (0.41±0.05) g,respectively.Comparing with control groups,the tumor inhibitory rates of ODN group and ASODN group were 6.4 ％ and 67.2 ％,respectively (x2=17.72,P＜0.005).Conclusion VEGF ASODN could inhibit VEGF expression in PC3 cells and lead to increasing cell apoptosis.After VEGF ASODN treatment,tumorigenesis in vitro is inhibited and cell invasion ability is decreased.The tumors originated from cells transfected with VEGF ASODN grow more slowly than control groups.Also local injection of VEGF ASODN could inhibit the growth of transplanted tumors in nude mice.

Emphysematous cystitis is a rare inflammation of the bladder, which can be life-threatening in severe cases. A senior gentleman with emphysematous cystitis was recently admitted to our hospital. He got bilateral renal hydronephrosis and bilateral terminal pneumatosis of the ureter. The comorbidity was prostatic hyperplasia and diabetes. After indwelling catheter , glucose levels control and anti-infection treatment for 3 days, the repeated CT showed the gas inside the bladder the end of ureter decreased significantly. The blood routine, urine routine, renal function was better than before. The patient was instructed to continue anti-infection treatment. The above laboratory examination indicators returned to normal after a week's re-examination.

Objective:To investigate the role of androgen receptor (AR) in CK5 +CK8 + cells isolated from prostate cancer LNCaP cells and its regulating mechanism. Methods:CK5 +CK8 + cells were isolated from LNCaP cells by using flow cytometry. Lentivirus vector carrying AR gene was transferred in CK5 +CK8 + cells. The experiments were divided into AR CK5 +CK8 + group transfering AR and V CK5 +CK8 + group transfering blank load. The expressions of AR, p-AKT and bcl-2 were tested by using Western blot assay under different concentrations of androgen (1 nmol/L and 10 nmol/L dihydrotestosterone). Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay, cell migration assay and soft agarose gel clone formation assay was used to detect the effect of AR on the biological property of CK5 +CK8 + cells. The effect of activated inhibitors such as LY 294002 (LY), γ-tocotrienol (γ-TT) and/or 5-fluorocytosine inducing AR expression (5-AZA) through AKT signal pathways on CK5 +CK8 + cells proliferation was detected by using MTT assay. Results:After AR gene was transferred into CK5 +CK8 + cells, the expression of AR was increased, while the expression of p-AKT and bcl-2 was decreased. After the treatment of 1 nmol /L dihydrotestosterone and 10 nmol/L dihydrotestosterone for 2, 4 and 6 d, the cell proliferation inhibited degree of AR CK5 +CK8 + cells was higher compared with that of V CK5 +CK8 + cells, and the difference was statistically significant (all P < 0.05). After the treatment of 1 nmol/L dihydrotestosterone and 10 nmol /L dihydrotestosterone for 3 d, the migration ability of AR CK5 +CK8 + cells was decreased compared with that of V CK5 +CK8 + cells (the number of cell migration: 54±9 vs. 113±21, 13±3 vs. 34±6), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=4.450, P<0.01; t=5.157, P<0.01).After the treatment of 1 nmol /L dihydrotestosterone and 10 nmol /L dihydrotestosterone for 3 weeks, the tumorigenic ability of AR CK5 +CK8 + cells was reduced compared with that of V CK5 +CK8 + cells (the number of clone: 39±7 vs. 105±16, 41±6 vs. 86±6), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=6.631, P<0.01; t=8.662, P<0.01). And 5 nmol /L LY + 10 nmol/L 5-AZA, 5 nmol /L LY + 5 nmol/L γ-TT, 10 nmol/L 5-AZA + 5 nmol/L γ-TT, 2.5 nmol/L LY + 5 nmol/L 5-AZA + 2.5 nmol/L γ-TT combined with 1 nmol/L dihydrotestosterone or 10 nmol/L dihydrotestosterone after the treatment of 2, 4, 6 d inhibited the proliferation of CK5 +CK8 + cells (all P < 0.05). Conclusion:AR plays an inhibitory role in CK5 +CK8 + cells isolated from prostate cancer cell line LNCaP and reduces the cell migration and tumorigenic ability through inhibiting activation of AKT-bcl-2 signal pathway.

Two isolation methods for sorting of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs): from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and CD133(+) enriched cells were compared, by defining the cell morphology, phenotype, reproductive activities and function in vitro, to provide a reference for clinical application of EPCs. PBMCs from healthy subjects were used either directly for cell culture or for CD133(+) sorting. The two groups of cells were cultured in complete medium 199 (M199) for 7 to 14 days and the phenotypes of EPCs were analyzed by FACS. The proliferation of differentiated EPCs was studied by MTT assay, and the VEGF concentration was measured using an ELISA kit. ECM gel experiment and migration assay were performed in vivo. The results showed that PBMCs produced more colony-forming units (CFU) than CD133(+) enriched cells from the same volume of blood (P<0.01). From day 7 to 14, the two groups showed decreased expression of hematopoietic stem cell markers and increased level of endothelial markers, but CD144(+) cells in CD133(+) group were less than in PBMCs group (P<0.01). PBMCs group secreted more VEGF than CD133(+) group on the day 7 (P<0.01). As compared with CD133(+) group, PBMCs group had more potent potential of proliferation and vascularization in vitro. It was concluded that CD133(+) sorted cells showed a lower capacity of differentiation, secretion, proliferation and vascularization in vitro, suggesting that CD133-negative cells may be a preferential way to get EPCs for clinical therapy.
