Objective:To investigate the inhibitiory effect of CD59-siRNA on CD59 gene expression and the growth of xenografted ovarian cancer in vivo,and to explore the role of CD59 in tumor immune escape.Methods:A2780 cells transfected with siRNA plasmid (T group),A2780 cells transfected with blank plasmid (V group) and the wild A2780 cells (C group) were subcutaneously injected into nude mice,respectively.The inhibitiory effect of CD59-siRNA on tumor growth and CD59 expression was evaluated by tumor growth curves and in situ hybridization (ISH) and immunohistochemistry (IHC).Results:The tumor growth curves demonstrated that the growth of cells transfected with siRNA plasmid was significantly inhibited (P<0.05).ISH and IHC showed that the expression of CD59 mRNA and CD59 protein were decreased significantly compared with other groups (P<0.05).Conclusion:Studies of in vivo experiment demonstrate that CD59-siRNA significantly inhibites the expression of CD59,increases the sensitivity of A2780 cells to the complement attack and inhibites the tumor growth.The results may further indicate the role of CD59 in tumor immune escape.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of stem cells marked with bromode oxyuridine (Brdu) and telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) in lung tissue, as well as its effects on pulmonary development and injury-repair. Methods A model of hyperoxia in neonatal rats was established by exposed to 95% O2 for 7 days. Before executing rats, Brdu was injected peritoneally, then Brdu and TERT positive cells were detected by immunohistochemistry. Results (1)The positive staining cells of Brdu with large nuclear located in septa and submucose of series bronchia, scattering in epithelium of bronchia, and the number of positive cells were less. The positive staining cells of TERT located in the septa and alveolar walls of peripulmonary tissue and the number of which was less than that of Brdu. (2)The positive cells of SPC located in septa and alveolar walls. Staining with Brdu and TERT, small number of positive cells was observed. (3) In hyperoxia and normal oxygen group, integral of expression of Brdu, TRET and SPC had no differences. But integral of expression of Brdu in whatever hyperoxia (1. 61?0. 83) or normal oxygen group (1. 43?0. 85) were higher than TRET and SPC (P

Objective To study the effect of dexamethasone on KGF expression in lungs of neonatal rats after hyperoxic exposure. Methods A randomized controlled study was designed in 48 Sprague-Dawley neonatal rats of 3 days old and divided into hyperoxia group, hyperoxia + dexamethasone and control groups for 7days. Histologic examination of the lung tissues were studied and radical alveoli count (RAC) were determined after HE staining. KGF expression was detected by immunohistochemistry. Results (1)The lungs of the rats in the hyperoxia group showed thinner walls of alveoli, simple alveolar structure, fewer and larger alveoli, expanded and shrinked alveoli. While those rats in the dexamethasone group showed more severe changes and some destroyed septa and walls of alveoli which lead to structure turbulence of the pulmonary tissue. The RAC in the hyperoxia and dexamethasone group was siginificanly lower than that in the control group (9.50?1.05, 10.03?3.26 vs 13.00?1.79, P

Objective To analyze the effect of circulatory failure on ventilation therapy of respiratory failure after resuscitation in neonates with severe asphyxia. Methods Three hundred and eighty-two neonates with mechanical ventilation following severe asphyxia were retrospectively analyzed. Two groups were divided according to the efficacy of mechanical ventilation: effective and noneffective. Results The non-effective rate was 24.1% at 1 hour after ventilation (19.4% in full term babies,34.5% in preterm babies). The degree of asphyxia in noneffective group was significantly more severe than the effective group. The incidence of persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborns(PPHN),exsanguine shock,cardiogenic shock,DIC and cardiac failure was 84.3%、51.0%、80 4%、49.0% and 54.9% respectively in term babies,while the incidence of exsanguine shock,cardiogenic shock,DIC and cardiac failure was 65.9%、68.3%、75.0% and 58.5% respectively in preterms babies. All of them were significantly higher than the effective group. After treatment of the circulation problems,the blood gas turned to normal in 94.1% term babies and 92.7% of preterms. No difference was shown in the recovery rate in both groups. Conclusion The circulatory failure is a main cause of non-effective mechanical ventilation in asphyxia neonates. To correct the pathophysiologic changes of the circulation in time can effectively improve the prognosis.

Objective To explore the effects of sertraline combined with attribution retraining in post-stroke depression and recovery of neurological function.Methods A total of seventy-eight patients with post-stroke depression were randomly divided into research group and control group.The research group was treated by sertraline combined with attribution retraining and the control group was treated by sertraline only for 8 weeks.Depressive symptoms were assessed using the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) and recovery of neurological functions using the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) at baseline and at the end of the 24,44,64 and 84 week.Results Repeated measure ANOVA for the total scores of HAMD showed that the main effect of time,the main effect of group and the interactive effect of time and group were significant (P＜0.05).Total scores of HAMD in the research group were significantly lower than those in the control group at the end of the 2nd,44,64 and 84 week [(18.25±4.27) vs.(20.81±4.63),(15.94±3.47)vs.(18.12±4.51),(12.85±3.12) vs.(16.54±3.70),(10.42±3.66) vs.(13.09±3.59),P＜0.05].HAMD Total scores in two groups were showed significantly decreased on each time point after treatment (P＜0.01).Effective rates (using reduction rate of HAMD total scores as evaluation) were more significant in the research group than those in the control group at the end of the 8th week (77.5％ vs.52.6％,P＜0.05).The repeated measure ANOVA showed that the main effect of time in NIHSS total scores was significant (P＜0.01).The main effect of group and the interactive effect of time and group in NIHSS total scores were not significant (P＞0.05).Total scores of NIHSS in two groups significantly decreased on each time point after treatment (P＜0.01).Conclusions Sertraline combined with attribution retraining can significantly relieve post-stroke depression and attribution training does not have obvious effects on the recovery of neurological function.

Objective To investigate the relationship between plasma docetaxel concentration and the efficacy as well as toxic and side effects in patients with breast cancer after chemotherapy.Methods Seventy -one patients with breast cancer who accepted AC sequential T chemotherapy regimen as first line treatment were selected from April 2015 to September 2015 in Hubei Provicial Tumor Hospital.The plasma concentration of docetaxel was detected by latex immunoturdidimetry after the docetaxel continuous infusion in each cycle.The three groups were assigned according to the concentration distribution of docetaxel:group A (plasma concentration docetaxel ≤ 2.0mg·h -1 · L -1 ),group B (2.1 -2.5mg·h -1 ·L -1 )and group C (≥2.6 mg·h -1 ·L -1 ).The relationship between the drug plasma concentration,therapeutic efficacy and adverse reactions in different docetaxel plasma concentration was analyzed retrospectively by Chi -square tests.Results The average plasma concentrations of docetaxel of the three groups were (1.55 ±0.36)mg·h -1 ·L -1 ,(2.28 ±0.13)mg·h -1 ·L -1 ,(2.87 ±0.38)mg· h -1 · L -1 respectively.The adverse reactions were enhanced with the increasing of docetaxel plasma concentration (χ2 =5.169, 4.463,3.630,P =0.023,0.035,0.047).The therapeutic efficacy of group C and group B was same(95.8%),which was higher than 87.0% of group A,but there was no statistically significant difference (χ2 =1.559,P =0.24). Conclusion Breast cancer patients whose plasma concentration of docetaxel is between 2.1 ~2.5mg·h -1 ·L -1 has a better prognosis,and its adverse reactions are controlled in a certain extent.

Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of the axillary conservative surgery by sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) using preoperative lymphoscintigraph technique with 99mTc-SC and methylene blue in early-stage breast cancer patients. Methods The sentinel lymph node (SLN) of 187 patients were located with preoperative lymphoscintigraph technique with 99mTc-SC and labeled with methylene blue during the operations. The metastasis of SLN was detected using frozen section technique. There were 51 patients whose SLN were positive having been carried with modified radical mastectomy of breast cancer and axillary lymph node dissection (ALND), 136 patients' SLN were negative,58 patients of those were carried with mammectomy or partial mastcctomy and ALND (group A),while 78 patients were carried out with mammectomy or partial mastectomy only (group B). The sentinel lymph nodes were detected with HE stain after surgery. All the patients were treated with chemotherapy,and the patients with partial mastcctomy must be treated with radiotherapy. There were 2 patients with micrometastasis in group B being treated with mammectomy or partial mastcctomy only,and carried out with ALND again. Results The number of cases with upper limb numbness, edema, dysfunction in group A were 36,8 and 45 cases, in group B were 2,0,0 case respectively. Group A compared with group B was increased significantly (P< 0.05). The number of local recurrence within 1, 3 and 5 years were 0,0,2 cases;lymphatic metastasis were 1,5,8 cases; the distant metastasis were 2,8,12 cases; the disease-free survival were 60,57,49 cases. In group B, the number of local recurrence within 1, 3 and 5 years were 0,0,6 cases, lymphatic metastasis were 3,8,12cases,the distant metastasis were 4,8,16 cases,the disease-free survival were 76,70,61 cases. There were not significant differences between the two groups(P> 0.05). Conclusion It is simple and accurate to carry out SLNB using preoperative lymphoscintigraph technique with 99mTc-SC combined with methylene blue,and the effect is reliable.

Objective To identify a aldehyde dehydrogenases positive (ALDH+) cancer stem cell subpopulation in MCF-7 cells and to investigate the proliferation and differentiation characteristics of these cells in vitro.Methods ALDH+ breast cancer stem cells were isolated from MCF-7 cells by flow cytometry and the biological property of ALDH+ breast cancer stem cells were examined by scarification test,MTT,growth curvature and Transwell migration assay.Results The ratio of CD-/low24 CD+44 cells was about 1.4 ％ in MCF-7 cells.The ratio of ALDH+ CD-/low24CD+44 cells was about 1.2 ％.The growth curvature of ALDH+ breast cancer stem cells was almost the same with that of CD-/low24 CD+44 cells.The distance between cells was obviously shorter in both CD-/low24 CD+44 cells scarification zone and ALDH+ CD-/low24 CD+44 cells scarification zone.The migration ability of CD-/low24CD+44 cells and ALDH+ CD-/low24CD+44 cells was stronger than control group cells.There were migration ability differences between CD-/low24CD+44 cells and ALDH+ CD-/low24CD+44 cells.The results of Transwell experiments were in coincidence with above results.Lots of CD-/low24CD+44 cells and ALDH+ CD-/low24CD+44 cells were through the membrane.In MTT assay,absorbance values were 1.05±0.098,1.56±0.075 and 1.67±0.032.Conclusion CD--/low24CD+44 and ALDH+ CD-/low24CD+44 breast cancer stem cell subpopulation exist in MCF-7 cells.ALDH could potentially be used as a molecular marker to identify breast cancer stem cell subpopulation.

ObjectiveTo explore the regulation of claudin-4 expression in endometrial adenocarcinoma cell lines by progesterone.Methods Ishikawa cells were treated with various concentrations of megestrol acetate (MA:2,5,10,15,20 mg/L).After cultured for 24,48 and 72 hours,cells growth were measured by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT).The group of Ishikawa cells incubated with MA at the 50％ inhibitory concentration ( IC50 ) was selected for cell apoptosis assay by using transmission electron microscopy and flow cytometry method.Real-time PCR and western blot were used for detecting the mRNA and protein expression levels of claudin-4.The localization of claudin-4 was examined by immunofluorescent staining.Results The inhibitory effects of megestrol acetate on the growth of Ishikawa cells were dosedependent and time-dependent.IC50 of MA on Ishikawa cells was 15 mg/L after incubated for 72 hours.After MA treatment,Ishikawa cells showed shrinkage,nuclear chromatin condensation,fractures of nuclear membrane and endoplasmic reticulum expansion,even round apoptotic bodies were found.The apoptosis rate of cells before MA treatment was (0.076 ±0.024)％,and the rate was (3.934 ±0.816)％ by MA treated for 72 hours,in which there were signicant difference( P ＜ 0.05 ).The relative quantification of claudin-4 mRNA and protein of the cells before MA treatment were 0.64 ± 0.20 and 0.94 ± 0.18,while they were 0.47 -0.15 and 0.62 ±0.15 after MA treated.The expression of claudin-4 was significantly decreased after MA treatment ( P ＜ 0.05 ).The localization of claudin-4 transferred from cytomembrane to cytoplasm and nucleus after MA treatment.Conclusions MA could inhibite the growth of Ishikawa cells,in which the mechanism may be decrease the expression of claudin-4 and the apoptosis of cells.The distribution change of claudin-4 may be related to the anti-cancer effect of progesterone.
