AIM: To study the signal transduction pathway of apoptosis initiation induced by homoharringtonine in HL-60 cells. METHODS: After establishing the model of apoptosis initiation induced by homoharringtonine in HL-60 cells, at the point of apoptosis initiation, molecular caspase-3, Bcl-2, Bax and Fas/FasL were measured with flow cytometry and transmission electron microscope. ERK2 and P38 expression in HL-60 cells were detected by using immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: The model of apoptosis initiation induced by homoharringtonine was established in HL-60 cells. At the point of apoptosis initiation, upregulation of caspase-3 and decrease in Bcl-2/Bax were observed. However, the expression of Fas/FasL did not significantly change. ERK2 expression decreased and P38 expression increased. CONCLUSIONS: Caspase-3, Bcl-2, Bax and mitogen activated protein kinase pathways were involved in signal transduction of apoptosis initiation induced by homoharringtonine in HL-60 cells. [

Objective To investigate the effects of propofol on myocardial nuclear factor kappaB(NF-κB)and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in isolated rat hearts.Methods Twenty-four adult SD rats of both sexes weighing 200-300 g were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=8 each):group Ⅰ control (C) ; group Ⅱ I/R and group Ⅲ propofol + I/R (P).The animals were anesthetized with intrxperitoneal urethane 1.0 g/kg and their hearts were excised.The aorta was cannulated and the hearts were retrogradely pedused with oxygenated K-H solution in a Langandorff apparatus for 20 min.In group C the hearts were continuously perfused with K-H solution for 110 min.In I/R group after 20 min stabilization the hearts were made globally ischemic for 30 min followed by 60 rain reperfusion.In group P the hearts were peffused with K-H solution containing 50 μmol/L propofol for 20 min,the hearts were then made globally ischemic for 30 min followed by 60 min repedusinn with K-H solution containing 50 μmol/L propofol.Cardiac troponinI (cTnI) concentration in coronary effluent was measured at the end of 20 min stabilization before myocardial isobemia (baseline) and at 10 min(T1) and 60 min (T2) of reperfusion.Myocardial specimen was obtained frem left ventricle at 60 min of repeffusion for determination of MDA content,SOD and iNOS activity,the expression of NF-κB and IκB (by immuno-histochemistry).Results The cTnI concentration in coronary effluent was significantly higher at T1 and T2 in group I/R and at T2 in group P than in group C.The NF-κB expression was significantly higher while IκB expression was lower in I/R and P group than in group C.iNOS activity was higher in I/R group than in control group but there was no significant difference in iNOS between group P and C.Propofol administered before and after myocardial ischemia significantly attenuated I/R-induced changes listed above.Conclusion Propofol can attenuate myocardial ischemia-reperfusien injury through reducing the NF-κB activation and suppressing the iNOS activity.

To cure one patient with spinal cord injury (SCI), who hospitalized for both legs couldn't moving for 21 years after external injury, by using the olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) transplant and acupuncture treatment. The patient was diagnosed as ischemic SCI (below the T11) according to the neurological test and MRI for dorsal vertebra. T11 spinous process was made to be the center mark through operation with the length of about 3 cm. The area between the atrophique spinal cord and normal spinal cord without vessel was selected and injected with OECs 0.5?109 L-1. Hemostasis, stitching, binging and fixation were performed respectively, and normal treatment was given by using antibiotics. At 14 days after operation, the temperature on skin increased a little, and acupuncture treatment and rehabilitation therapy were performed. The acupoints were as following: Baihui (DU21), Yintang (EX-HN3), Hegu (LI4), Zhongji (RN3), Guanyuan (RN4), Biguan (ST31), Fengshi (GB31), Futu (ST32), Dubi (EX-LE5), Zusanli (ST36), Xuehai (SP10), Yinlingquan (SP9), Sanyinjiao (SP6), Jiexi (ST41), Taixi (KI3), Fuliu (KI7), Taichong (LR3), and Shenmai (BL62). The treatment was given by mild reinforcing and attenuating with 30-minute retention. The rehabilitation: The needle pressing, manipulation for muscular atrophy, bicycle practicing, andimperative standing were performed. After 2 weeks, the skin temperature of the patient increased with obvious improvement in his right leg. The physical strength of the patient was reinforced with less perspiration, and the patient could walk 3 km without fatigue, which indicated that after OECs transplant, treatment with acupuncture, massage and other rehabilitation trainings could facilitated the improvement of SCI of the advance stage as well as the amelioration of muscular atrophy.
