Objective; To explore the possible effect of hyperthermia combined with Prog on a human tongue cancer cell line Tca8113 and drug-resistance cell line Tca8113/BLM in vitro. Methods;The effect of hyperthermia combined with Prog on Tca8113 and Tca8113/ BLM cells were determined by MTT. The concentration of ADM, the expression of P-gp and MRP were detected by flow cytometry (FCM). Results;Compared with Prog or hyperthermia, the hyperthermia at 41 X. for 1 h combined with Prog showed obvious inhibitory effect in Tca8113 and Tca8113/BLM cells(P<0.01). The concentration of ADM in Tca8113 and Tca8113/BLM cells increased obvi-ously(P<0.01). Expression levels of P-gp and MRP in Tca8113 and Tca8113/BLM cells decreased significantly. Conclusion:The hyperthermia combined with Prog can increase the intracellular concentration of ADM in Tca8113 and Tca8113 /BLM cells, which reverse the drug-resistance of Tca8113/BLM cells to BLM and down-regulate expressions of P-gp and MRP.

Objective To observe the value of speckle tracking imaging(STI) in assessing early changes of left ventricular diastolic and systolic function in patients with essential hypertension (EH). Methods Sixty-five EH patients with left ventricular normal geometry (LVN) ,including 33 cases with non-left atrial enlargement(NLAE) and 32 cases with left atrial enlargement (LAE),and 45 normal persons out of them were recruited as study subjects. Peak systole (S), peak early diastole (E'), peak late diastole (A')and E'/A' ratio at longitudinal strain rate(SrL) of three segments in long-axis views and radial strain rate (SrR),circumference strain rate(SrC) and rotation rate(RotR) of three levels in short-axis views were measured. Results There were no segment differences between A' at SrL in three segments or level differences between S and A' at SrR and S at SrC in three levels in NLAE group and LAE group. Compared with controls,NLAE group and LAE group had significantly decreased S and E' at SrL and E'/A' at SrL, SrR and SrC,increased A' at SrL,SrR and SrC and E' at RotR. Conclusions It was indicated by STI that early LV dysfunction in EH was appeared on diastolic as well as systolic dysfunction.

Objective To investigate the effect of human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cell-derived Exosome on the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells(MSC)into cancer-associated myofibroblasts(CAF)and the impacts of CAF on liver cancer cell proliferation,migration,and invasion. Methods The protein expression of HepG2 cell-derived Exosome was detected by Western blotting. MSCs were separated from human adipose tissue and cultured with HepG2 cell-derived Exosome(100 ng/nl)to initiate differentiation. The expressions of mesenchymal markers and several interleukins were also detected by Western blotting. HepG2 cells were co-cultured with the conditioned media(CM),in which HepG2 Exosome induced the differentiation of MSC into CAF. The expressions of epithelial and mesenchymal markers were detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction(PCR)and Western blotting. Cell proliferation was assessed using MTS assay. Transwell chambers were used in the in vitro migration and invasion assay. Results HepG2 cell-derived particles expressed CD63,70 kilodalton heat shock proteins,and 90 kilodalton heat shock proteins. With the treatment of HepG2 cell-derived Exosome,the expressions of mesenchymal marker α-smooth muscle actin,fibroblast activation protein α,interleukin(IL)-6,IL-8,and IL-1β were up-regulated,while vascular endothelial growth factor had no significant change. The conditioned media which HepG2 Exosome induced MSC differentiation CAF(CAF-CM)could significantly promote HepG2 cells proliferation(1.075±0.104),compared to BSA control(0.874±0.066,P=0.023)and MSC-CM(0.649±0.034,P=0.0005). CAF-CM could significantly enhance cell migration [(42.5±9.1) cells vs.(18.5±3.1) cells,P=0.001] and invasion [(29.0±3.5) cells vs.(13.1±3.7) cells,P=0.009] compared to its control group. Moreover the conditioned medium which HepG2 Exosome induced MSC to differentiate into CAF could also promote the expressions of mesenchyme-related genes Smad interacting protein 1(P=0.040),β-catenin(P=0.038),fibronectin(P=0.029),and Vimentin(P=0.013)and inhibit the expression of epithelial related genes zonula ocdudens-1(P=0.010).Conclusions Exosome extracted from HepG2 cells can induce human adipose-derived MSC to differentiate into cancer-associated myofibroblasts. CAF-like cells can promote the migration of the liver cancer cell line HepG2.

AIM: To investigate whether tumor necrosis factor ? (TNF?) pretreatment can inhibit mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening in isolated rat hearts subjected to hypoxia and reoxygenation. METHODS: Isolated perfused rat hearts were subjected to 30 min regional hypoxia (occlusion of left anterior descending artery) and 120 min reoxygenation. The infarct size, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release during reoxygenation and ventricular hemodynamic parameters were measured. RESULTS: Pretreatment with TNF? at concentration of 1?104 U/L for 7 min followed by 10 min washout reduced the infarct size and LDH release, and improved the left ventricular performance (left ventricular developed pressure and rate-pressure product) and left ventricular end-diastolic pressure during hypoxia and reoxygenation. Administration of atractyloside (Atr, an opener of mitochondrial permeability transition pore, 20 ?mol/L) for 20 min (last 5 min of hypoxia and first 15 min of reoxygenation) and paxilline (Pax, a calcium activated potassium channel antagonist, 1 ?mol/L) for 5 min before hypoxia attenuated the reduction of infarct size and LDH release and improved the left ventricular performance induced by TNF?. CONCLUSION: The findings indicate that in the isolated rat heart model, TNF? protects myocardium against hypoxia and reoxygenation injury via inhibiting mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening as well as activating calcium, activated potassium channel.

AIM: To investigate the role of mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) in the cardioprotection by hypoxic preconditioning (HPC) and its relationship to mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP). METHODS: Intraventricular balloon technique was employed to measure the left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP), the maximum rise/fall rate of left ventricular pressure (?dp/dt_ max ), and the left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) in Langendorff isolated rat heart. The hypoxia was achieved by ligation of left anterior coronary artery for 30 min followed by release of ligation for 120 min as reoxygenation. Hypoxic preconditioning was set as two episodes of 5 min global hypoxia and 5 min reoxygenation. RESULTS: Both HPC and treatment with ruthenium red (5 ?mol/L) during the first 10 min reoxygenation improved recovery of LVDP, ?dp/dt_ max and decreased LVEDP, which was associated with reduced infarct size and lactate dyhydrogenase release. These protective effects were attenuated by treatment with spermine (20 ?mol/L) during the first 10 min reoxygenation. Administration of cyclosporin A (0.2 ?mol/L) during the last 5 min of hypoxia period and first 15 min of reoxygenation period reduced the injury effect by spermine. CONCLUSION: These results indicate that inhibition of MCU is involved in the cardioprotection of HPC via inhibiting MPTP.

Objective To evalutate the safty of hBMSCs transpalntation and to observe their migration and distribution in the brain of young macaca fascicularis. To establish a new technology platform and theoretical basis for the treatment of central nervous system diseases in children. Methods Labelled hBMSCs were transplanted into the striatum of young macaca fascicularis. Brain sections were examined to evalutate the inflammatory reaction and immunological rejection of local injection sites by HE observation and immunohistochemical staining. Migration and distribution of transplanted?hBMSCs was observed by real?time fluorescence quantitative PCR of male DNA and fluorescence microscope. Results The results showed that the direct intracerebral injection of hBMSCs did not cause systemic symptoms in animals. There is no inflammatory reaction and immunological rejection was detected, and degeneration and necrosis of neural cells and proliferation of glial cells were absent in the local injection sites. The transplanted hBMSCs survived, and migrated into the brain after 4 weeks transplantation. Its migration and distribution have certain regularity and were overlapping between transplant recipients. In addtion, hBMSCs tended to extend rostrally into the forebrain and showed preference of migrating toward the blood vessels and below the ependyma. Conculsions Intracerebral transplantation of hBMSCs is safe. And hBMSCs can survive and migrate into the brain.
