DNA methylation is the best studied of the epigenetic changes that influence the gene expression,and changes in genomic methylation patterns have been observed in many cancer cell lines.Nutrients as methyl donors play essential roles in DNA methylation and may modify cancer risk.This review,with an emphasis on the relationship between nutrition,DNA methylation and cancer,firstly defines methylation with a description of its correlated mechanism,then approaches the molecular mechanism of cancer initiation and development at the methylation level,and lastly summarizes the mechanism underlying the effect of methylation-related nutrients on the process of cancer initiation and development at the molecular level.It also offers some suggestions on cancer prevention at the group nutrition level.

In order to investigate the effect of nerve growth factor (NGF) on the proliferation of rabbit corneal endothelial cells and epithelial cells, the in vitro cultured rabbit corneal endothelial cells and epithelial cells were treated with different concentrations of NGF. MTT assay was used to examine the clonal growth and proliferation of the cells by determining the absorbency values at 570 nm. The results showed that NGF with three concentrations ranging from 5 U/mL to 500 U/mL enhanced the proliferation of rabbit corneal endothelial cells in a concentration-dependent manner. 50 U/mL and 500 U/mL NGF got more increase of proliferation than that of 5 U/mL NGF did. Meanwhile, 50 U/mL and 500 U/mL NGF could promote the proliferation of the rabbit corneal epithelial cells significantly in a concentration-dependent manner. However, 5 U/mL NGF did not enhance the proliferation of epithelial cells. It was suggested that exogenous NGF can stimulate the proliferation of both rabbit corneal endothelial and epithelial cells, but the extent of modulation is different.

Objective:To investigate the effects of probiotics on the stabilization of blood glucose and its mechanism in children with severe infectious pneumonia.Methods:Eighty children with severe infectious pneumonia admitted to PICU were enrolled in the clinical trial prospectively.They were divided into two groups by random.Forty patients given probiotics were regarded as treatment group,the others not given probiotics were considered to be controlled group,in addition to the regular therapy.Blood glucose,plasma H2 S,D-lactate and acetic acid,propionic acid and butyric acid concentrations in stools were measured respectively at the beginning of the treatment and on day 8 after the treatment.At the same time the changes of blood glucose,fluctuation of them and prognosis were examined.Results:There was no significance in all the parameters of the two groups at the beginning of the treatment (P ＞ 0.05).The levels of plasma H2S and acetic acid,butyric acid in the stools of the probiotics group was (24.6 ± 7.4) μmol/L,(32.8 ± 8.6) μmol/g,(15.2 ± 5.2) μmoL/g on the day 8 respectively;but the concentration of these parameters in the control group was (20.9 ± 7.4) μ mol/L,(28.6 ± 7.9) μmol/g,(12.9 ± 5.0) μmoL/g.Meanwhile the level of D-lactate in patients given probiotics (1.25 ± 0.39) μg/ ml was significantly lower than that the control group (1.45 ± 0.4) μg/ml.The blood glucose (6.1 ± 2.7) mmol/L was lower than than in the other group (7.4 ± 2.7) mmol/L on day 8.And a higher recov ery rate was found in probiotic group.Furthermore,blood glucose and H2S,acetic acid levels expressed negative correlation at 8 day;but positive correlations were found between blood glucose and D-lactate (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion:Application of probiotics to children with severe infectious pneumonia can moderate the structure of enterobacteria,reinforce the intestinal barrier and elevate the levels of plasma H2S and had positive effects on the stabilization of blood glucose and prognosis.

AIM: To investigate the RNAi effect of the inhibitory member of the ASPP family (iASPP) on the apoptosis of human breast cancer cell MCF-7 which expressed the wild type p53 gene. METHODS: The recombinant plasmid pAd-iASPP-RNAi was transfected into MCF-7 cells. The expression of iASPP mRNA and protein was analyzed by RT-PCR and Western blotting, respectively. The cell apoptosis was detected by FCM, and then the MCF-7 cells were transplanted into nude mice to set up transplantation model. The expression of iASPP RNA and protein in transplanted neoplasm were determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting, the apoptosis index was detected by FCM at the same time. RESULTS: The results showed that the expression of iASPP descended in MCF-7 cells (mRNA 95.4% and protein 96.8%, respectively, P<0.01) and the apoptosis rate and necrosis rate of MCF-7 cells increased (P<0.01) after transfection. As treated with pAd-iASPP-RNAi, the expression of iASPP in transplantation tumor cells descended 87.4% (mRNA) and 89.2% (protein), respectively (P<0.01), and the apoptosis rate and necrosis rate increased accordingly (P<0.01, P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The inhibition of iASPP may resume the ability of p53 to induce apoptosis in breast cancer cells which is able to express wild type p53.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of adjunctive treatment with Qiangzhu Recipe for ankylosing spondylitis(AS). Methods Forty-eight AS patients were evenly randomized into observation group and control group according to the admission order. The observation group was given Qiangzhu Recipe together with sulfasalazine and celecoxib orally, and the control group received oral use of sulfasalazine and celecoxib. Four weeks constituted one treatment course, and the treatment covered 3 courses. The main clinical outcomes of the patients included Bath AS functional index ( BASFI) , Bath AS disease activity index ( BASDAI) , pain visual analog scale ( VAS) scores, global VAS scores, spinal mobility indexes ( finger-to-floor distance, occiput -wall distance, thoracic mobility, Schober test, scoliolosis test) , and laboratory inflammatory indicators of erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein. Moreover, the incidence of adverse reaction was also recorded. Results (1) After treatment for 4, 8, and 12 weeks, the percentage of the patients arriving at the degree of ASAS20 was 16.67%, 33.34%, and 70.83% respectively in the observation group, and was 8.33%, 29.17%, and 58.33% in the control group; the percentage of the patients arriving at the degree of ASAS40 was 4.17%, 20.83%, and 37.50% respectively in the observation group, and was 0.00%, 12.50%and 25.00% in the control group. The differences of the percentage of the patients arriving at the degree of ASAS20 and ASAS40 were insignificant between the two groups (P>0.05). (2) After treatment, symptoms were much relieved, spinal mobility was improved, and inflammatory indicators of ESR and CRP were alleviated in the two groups ( P<0.05 or P<0.01 compared with those before treatment) . The observation group had better effect on BASDAI than the control group ( P<0.01) , but only showed a trend on improving the other clinical outcomes ( P>0.05 compared with the control group). Conclusion Adjunctive treatment with Qiangzhu Recipe exerts certain synergistic action on sulfasalazine and celecoxib in treating ankylosing spondylitis.

Objective To observe the effect of Duanteng Yimu decoction (DYD) on bone turnover markers of C-terminal telopeptide of type Ⅰ collagen (CTX-Ⅰ) and N-terminal propeptide of type Ⅰ procollagen ( PⅠNP) of adjuvant-induced arthritis (AA) rats. Methods Seventy-two SD rats were divided into 9 groups, and complete Freund's adjuvant was injected into the rats to establish adjuvant-induced arthritis rat model. After medication for 36 days, the pedal swelling, the serum levels of CTX-Ⅰand PⅠNP, and ankle X-ray photographic scores were observed. Results The pedal swelling degrees and ankle X-ray scores in medication groups were lower than those in the model group ( P<0.05). The PⅠNP level had no statistically significance in various groups ( P>0.05). The CTX-Ⅰlevel in low-dose DYD group was decreased (P<0.05). Conclusion Caulis Celastri has two-way effects on CTX-Ⅰlevel of female AA rats, and its side effects can be reduced by Radix Dipsaci and Herba Leonuri, but their antagonism effect will disappear with the increase of the dose of Caulis Celastri.
