Objective To investigate different ultrasound parameters and transfection conditions that would affect transfection rate of red fluorescent protein(RFP)and cell viability of cancer cells.Methods In this study,Hela cells were cultured using two different protocols:(A)24 h culture for complete adherence;(S)suspension.Subsequently,cells were transfected following different ultrasound exposure protocols[1.0W/cm2;duty cycle(DC):10%,20%and 50%;exposure 1min or 3 min].Gene transfection and cell viability were evaluated.Treatment parameters optimized in Hela cells were applied for delivery RFP in 4 other cell lines(HepG2,Ishikawa,MCF-7 and B16-F10).Results Cell injury were found to increase progressively with DC and exposure time in group A.Cell detachment was significantly accompanied by ultrasound exposure in adherent HeLa cells.Cells in group S were found more prone to be transfected than group A with the same ultrasound parameters,while the survival rate was not decreased apparently.The ideal ultrasound conditions were noted to be at 1.0 W/cm2 irradiated 3 min with 20%DC using suspended protocol,producing maximum efficiency[transfection=(28.04±2.27)%]in gene delivery with minimum cell toxicity[cell viability=(81.20±1.73)%].These experiments also revealed different response to ultrasound treatment,but for all tested cell lines,dead and transfected cells in the treated groups were significantly different from the non-irradiated groups.Conclusions Ultrasound parameters and transfection conditions have a great impact on the gene delivery and cell viability.Gene delivery of ultrasound-mediated microbubble enhance should be optimized to improve the efficiency.

Objective To study the optimized condition of transfection efficiency for MCF-7 cells enhanced by ultrasound(US) irradiation and contrast agent combined with polyethyleneimine(PEI) and observe whether the combination can have a synergistic effect to increase DNA transfection. Methods MCF-7 cells were transfected with the compounds prepared by the vector of plasmid DNA encoding luciferase (pCMV-luciferase-GL3) and PEI.SonoVue microbubble was added to the cell suspension to serve as nucleation sites for aeoustic cavitation before US irradiation. The DNA expression of luciferase plasmid and viability of cells were evaluated. The strategy of US irradiation was optimized. Furthermore, the influencing factor, such as the concentration of plasmid, incubation time, serum, the type of solvent and the volume of culture media, were examined. Results The viability of cells and US-induced enhancement of luciferase activity were influenced by the US intensity,exposure time and duty cycle.US irradiation under an appropriate condition enables ceils to accelerate the permeation of the PEI/DNA complex through the cell membrane, resulted in enhanced transfection efficiency of plasmid DNA. Optimal US condition for the enhancement was determined to be 1 W/cm2,10% DC for 3 min. In contrast to the PEI/DNA complex alone without US irradiation or US irradiation alone, the combination of US irradiation with contrast agent and PEI had a significantly enhanced luciferase activity (P<0.01). The 2 h pre-irradiation incubation with PEI/DNA complex for MCF-7 ceils exhibited a significantly enhanced lueiferase activity (P<0.01). Besides,serum,type of solvent and the volume of culture media did affect the transfection efficiency. Conclusions The optimized parameters of US and transfection provide efficient gene delivery in MCF-7 cancer cells. The combination of US irradiation with contrast agent and PEI has a synergistic effect to increase DNA transfection. This is a simple and promising method to enhance the gene expression of plasmid DNA.

Objective To evaluate the clinical characteristics of epithelioid trophoblastic tumor (ETT).Methods Six cases of ETT treated in Women's Hospital,School of Medicine,Zhejiang University from 2005 to 2007 were retrospectively analyzed,together with a literature review.Results Six cases of ETT were diagnosed pathologically after surgery.The age of patients ranged from 27 to 46 years.The most common presentation was abnormal vaginal bleeding(5/6).The preceding gestational events were hydatidiform mole in 1 case,abortion in 2 cases,and term delivery in 3 cases.The interval between the preceding gestation and the diagnosis of ETT ranged from 15-48 months.The serum human chorionic gonadotropin(hCG)level was 46-121 147 IU/L.Four cases presented with metastasis,including lung metastasis in all of the 4 cases,liver metastasis in 1 case,and pancreas metastasis in another 1 case.The main therapies were surgery combined with chemotherapy.All of the 6 cases received total abdominal hysterectomy.and 1 case also had lung lobectomy.One ease had a recurrence but refused any treatment again,and was lost to follow up;the therapy of 1 case unfinished;another 4 cases were without evidence of disease 9 to 19 months after surgery.Condusions The confirmation of ETF diagnosis is difficult before surgery.Surgical management is mostly recommended in ETT. The role of chemotherapy in ETT is not clear yet.

Objective To compare the effects between vasopressin and epinephrine during cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR)in a mouse model of cardiac arrest(CA).Method Transoesophageal cardiac pacing was performed so as to elicit cardiac arrest in 30 Kunming male mice.Four minutes after the initiation of cardiac pacing,the animals were prospectively randomized into three groups in equal number(n=10/group),namely,control group(saline 0.2 mL intra-arterial),vasopressin group(vasopressin 0.4U/kg intra-arterial)and epinephrine group(epinephrine 0.04 mg/kg intra-arterial),then CPR was initiated.Restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC)was observed.If ROSC failed to appear at 10 minutes after CPR,resuscitation was discontinued.Electrocardiogram and blood pressure of resuscitated animals were invasively monitored for an additional 60 minutes.Electrocardiogram and blood pressure.and the restoration of spontaneous respiration and survival time were observed and recorded.Results Rates of ROSC in vasopressin group and epinephrine group were significantly higher than those in saline group(9/10,10/10 vs.3/10,P＜0.05,P＜0.01 respectively),and there was signilieant difference between vasopressin and epinephrine group.All resuscitated mice treated with epinephrine restored sponlaneous respiration after ROSC,while only 4 of 9 animals trealed with vasopressin did(P＜0.05).Survival time of anireals in epinephrine group was longer than that in vasopressin group or in saline group(P＜0.05,P＜0.05,respectively).Conclusions Both vasopressin and epinephrine increase the rates of ROSC.Epinephrine 0.04 mg/kg improved respiratory function and results in a longer survival time compared with vasopressin 0.4 U/kg in this mouse model.and the precise mechanism is not clear and further investigation is required.

Objective To observe the influences of NaAsO2 on H3K36me3 modifications,mRNA transcription of O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase gene (MGMT) in HaCaT cells,and to explore the relationship between the transcription of MGMT gene regulated by H3K36me3 and DNA damage induced by arsenic,in order to provide new ideas and scientific basis for prevention and intervention of arsenism.Methods HaCaT cells were treated with 1.25,2.50,5.00 and 10.00 μmol/L NaAsO2 for 24 h,and were also treated with 10.00 μmol/L NaAsO2 for 6,12 and 24 h.HaCaT cells that treated with 0.00 pmol/L NaAsO2 and 0 h were used as blank control group.The degree of DNA damage in peripheral blood cells was detected by single cell gel electrophoresis.The level of H3K36me3 modifications was detected using Western blotting.Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the mRNA levels of MGMT gene.Quantitative chromatin immuno-precipitation was used to detect the level of H3K36me3 modifications in the coding regions (ChIP1 and ChIP2) of MGMT gene.Results ①Among the groups of HaCaT cells treated with 2.50,5.00 and 10.00 μmol/L NaAsO2,the levels of tail DNA％ (11.83 ± 1.15,16.85 ± 2.52,24.23 ± 2.75) and olive tail moment (OTM,10.90 ± 1.13,16.19 ± 2.26,23.83 ± 2.79)were significantly increased compared with those of the control group (0.00 μmol/L,2.40 ± 0.51,2.26 ± 0.40,all P ＜ 0.05).After treated with 10.00 μmoFL NaAsO2 for 12 and 24 h,compared with the control group (0 h,3.66 ± 1.02,3.38 ± 1.00),the degrees of tail DNA％ (15.51 ± 1.92,24.18 ± 2.42) and OTM (13.58 ± 2.04,23.14 ± 2.11)were significantly increased (all P ＜ 0.05).②Compared with the control group (0.00 μmol/L,100.00 ± 0.00),the levels of H3K36me3 modifications (60.59 ± 9.75,57.82 ± 11.28,39.45 ± 7.09) were lower at the dosages of 2.50,5.00 and 10.00 μmol/L NaAsO2 (all P ＜ 0.05).Compared with the control group (0 h,100.00 ± 0.00),the levels of H3K36me3 modifications (48.47 ± 9.67,47.75 ± 6.98) were lower after treated with 10.00 μ mol/L NaAsO2 for 12 and 24 h (all P ＜ 0.05).③The levels of H3K36me3 modifications in HaCaT cells exposed to different doses of NaAsO2 were negatively associated with the tail DNA％ and OTM (r =-0.897,-0.903,all P ＜ 0.05).④Compared with the control group (0.00 μmol/L,100.00 ± 0.00),the mRNA levels of MGMT gene were lower at the dosages of 2.50,5.00 and 10.00 pmol/L NaAsO2 (78.20 ± 3.50,61.40 ± 2.60,49.15 ± 4.70,all P ＜ 0.05).⑤There was no observed H3K36me3 enrichmem regularity in the gene encoding ChIP1 and ChIP2 regions of MGMT gene in all doses of NaAsO2 groups (all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions H3K36me3 may be involved in the regulation of arsenicinduced DNA damage in HaCaT cell.Amenic could inhibit the mRNA transcription of MGMT gene in HaCaT cells,but the transcription of MGMT gene regulate by H3K36me3 is not closely related to DNA damage induced by arsenic.

Objective To evaluate the role of nuclear factor erythroid 2?related factor 2 ( Nrf2)∕antioxidant response element( ARE) signaling pathway in inhibition of lipopolysaccharide ( LPS)?induced inflammatory factor release from macrophages by hydrogen. Methods RAW264. 7 macrophages of mice were cultured in 6?well plates (2×106 cells∕well) and were divided into 4 groups (n=24 each) using a random number table: control group ( group C); LPS group; hydrogen?rich saline+LPS group ( group LPS+H2); Nrf2 small interference RNA (siRNA)+LPS+hydrogen?rich saline group (siRNA+LPS+H2 group) . LPS 1 μg∕ml was added in group LPS. In group LPS+H2 , LPS 1μg∕ml was added, and the cul?ture medium was then replaced with the culture medium containing 0. 6 mmol∕L hydrogen?rich saline. In group siRNA+LPS+H2 , after Nrf2?siRN was successfully transfected into the cells, the cells were continu?ously incubated for 24 h, and the culture medium was then replaced with the culture medium containing 0.6 mmol∕L hydrogen?rich saline after LPS 1 μg∕ml was added. At 24 h of incubation, the supernatant was sep?arated for determination of the lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) activity (using colorimetric method) and for detection of the concentrations of tumor necrosis factor?alpha ( TNF?α) , interleukin?1 beta ( IL?1β) , high mobility group box?1 (HMGB1) and IL?6 (by ELISA). The cells were collected for measurement of the proliferation of cells ( by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium assay) and for determination of the expression of Nrf2 and heme oxygenase?1 ( HO?1) in cells ( by Western blot) . Results Compared with group C, the LDH activity and concentrations of TNF?α, IL?1β, IL?6 and HMGB1 in the supernatant were significantly in?creased, the proliferation of cells was significantly decreased, and the expression of HO?1 in cells was sig?nificantly up?regulated in LPS and siRNA+LPS+H2 groups, and the expression of Nrf2 in cells was signifi?cantly up?regulated in LPS and LPS+H2 groups (P<0.05). Compared with group LPS, the LDH activity and concentrations of TNF?α, IL?1β, IL?6 and HMGB1 in the supernatant were significantly decreased, the proliferation of cells was significantly increased, and the expression of Nrf2 and HO?1 in cells was sig?nificantly up?regulated in group LPS+H2 , and the expression of Nrf2 and HO?1 in cells was significantly down?regulated in group siRNA+LPS+H2 ( P<0.05) . Compared with group LPS+H2 , the LDH activity and concentrations of TNF?α, IL?1β, IL?6 and HMGB1 in the supernatant were significantly increased, the proliferation of cells was significantly decreased, and the expression of Nrf2 and HO?1 in cells was signifi?cantly down?regulated in group LPS+H2+siRNA ( P<0.05) . Conclusion The mechanism by which hydro?gen inhibits LPS?induced inflammatory factor release from macrophages is related to the activation of Nrf2∕ARE signaling pathway in mice.
