Objective To investigate the effect of TGF-β1 on epithelial mesenchymal transition in Hela cells of human cervi-cal cancer.Methods Hela cells of Human cervical cancer cultured in vitro were divided into the experimental group and control group.In the control group,Hela cells were cultured in serum-free medium without TGF-β1.In the experimental group,Hela cells were treated with different concentrations of TGF-β1 (0.01,0.10,1.00,10.00 ng/mL).The morphological changes of Hela cells of human cervical cancer were stimulated by TGF-β1 at different time points observed under an inverted microscope,while the expres-sions of mRNA and protein of E-cadherin and Vimentin in Hela cells were detected by semi-quantitative RT-PCR assay and cellular immunohistochemistry respectively.Results Comparing with the control group,Hela cells stimulated by TGF-β1 for 48 h began to have morphological changes.Mesenchymal morphology changes were observed obviously after 72 h.RT-PCR analysis showed that the expression of epithelial marker E-cadherin mRNA was down regulated,while the expression of mesenchymal marker Vimentin mRNA was increased and showed a concentration dependence after the stimulation of TGF-β1,Comparing with the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05 ).After stimulation of TGF-β1 in Hela cells,cellular immunohistochemistry showed that the concentration of TGF-β1 increased,the expression of E-cadherin protein gradually decreased,and the expression of Vimentin protein gradually increased at the same time.Comparing with the control group,the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05).Conclusion TGF-β1 may induce epithelial mesenchymal transformation in Hela cells of human cervical cancer.

This paper rounded up the resources and advantages leveraged by the hospital′s burn and plastic surgery department as a national key discipline. The department practiced medical services for chronic wounds in the regional hierarchical medical system for chronic wounds to promote the development medical alliances. IT development of the hierarchical medical network has achieved disease information sharing, namely centralized patients screening, patients referral confirmation, mutual recognition of test results, online consultation and treatment follow-up. Other achievements include standardization of medical criteria for chronic wounds by means of effective integration of resources imbalance within the network and improvement of internal medical regulations; elevation of primary level innovation capacity and services by means of high-caliber specialists working at primary institutions and mutual exchanges in between; effective medical cost control via guarantee system building, thus enhancing the public benefit nature of public hospitals. The paper also probed into problems and solutions expected in the way of promoting the chronic wound hierarchical medical system.
