AIM: To observe the effects of D-galactose on the lumber vertebra body and investigate the reasons. METHODS: 12 rats at age of 6 months were divided into two groups, control group and D-galactose group (n=6 in each). The control group were administered saline solution sc, and the D-galactose group were administered 5% D-galactose solution sc at dose of 100 mg?kg -1. After 3 month, the rats were killed by exsanguination from heart. The fourth lumber vertebra was taken and immerged in formalin. The testicle were taken and immerged in formalin at the same time. The blood serum was collected by centrifugating the collected blood after resting for a while, and it was preserved in refrigeratory at the degree of - 70 ℃.The vertebra body were embedded in plastic and sliced up after being dehydrated step by step with different concentration ethanol. The slices were analyzed under the image analysis apparatus. The testicle were made into paraffin slices and observed under the common microscope. The concentration of serum testosterone and luteinizing hormone were measured by radio-immunity assay. RESULTS: The lumber vertebra body in D-galactose group appeared osteoporosis. The serum testosterone hormone concentrations of D-galactose rats were significantly decreased. And the microstructure of testicle present aging change, but no change of serum LH concentration was observed. CONCLUTION: D-galactose can cause the osteoporosis in male rats, which may be related to affect the function of thalamus-pituitary-testicle axis, decrease the content of testosterone of D-galactose.

Objective To explore the inhibitory effects of sorafenib combined with cisplatin (DDP) on human hepatocellular carcinoma cells HepG2 in vitro, and the possible underlying mechanisms. Methods The HepG2 cells were divided to 4 groups as control group, sorafenib group, cisplatin group and sorafenib-cisplatin group. Sorafenib and cisplatin were used in single agent or in combination against HepG2 in vitro. The inhibitory effects of sorafenib and/or cisplatin on proliferation of HepG2 were determined by MTT assay at 24h, 48h, 72h and 96h after the addition of the drugs to HepG2 culture. Cell cycle at 24h time point and apoptosis at 48h time point were examined by flow cytometry (FCM). At 24h time point, cells were labeled by Rhodamine123 and mitochondrial transmembrane potential (??m) was determined by FCM, while caspase-3 activity was assessed by caspase-3 colorimetric assay. Results MTT assay showed that sorafenib and cisplatin, when used as a single agent or in combination, could inhibit the growth of HepG2 cells and induce apoptosis in vitro, while synergistic effect was noted when lower doses of sorafenib and DDP were used in combination. It was also found that combined use of sorafenib and cisplatin arrested HepG2 cells at G0/G1 and G2 phase as shown by cell cycle analysis, and the highest apoptosis rate appeared in sorafenib-cisplatin combination group (P
