Objective To detect the expression of TRIM24 in uroepithelium cell carcinoma of bladder(BUCC)and analyze the relationship be?tween its expression and clinical pathological factors. Methods Immunohistochemical methods were employed to evaluate protein level of TRIM24 in BUCC. Results TRIM24 expression was observed in the nuclear compartments of tumor cells,while normal epithelia of bladder tissues exhibited negative results. For 72 BUCC tissues,TRIM24 overexpression(score≥4)was observed in 41.6%of cases(30/72). TRIM24 expression correlat?ed with invasive depth(P=0.029)and patients with high TRIM24 expression had high grade of BUCC(P=0.043). Conclusion There was sig?nificant over expression of TRIM24 in BUCC,which was correlated with poor differentiation and high grade of BUCC. It may become a candidate tar?get gene for the treatment of human uroepithelium cell carcinoma of bladder.

OBJECTIVE:To optimize the ultrasonic extraction and purification technology of total saponins from Marsdenia te-nacissima,and to prepare purified total saponins from M. tenacissima. METHODS:Using the extraction rate of total saponins from M. tenacissima as index,ethanol volume fraction,solvent-solid ratio and extraction temperature as factors,ultrasonic extraction technology of total saponins from M. tenacissima was optimized by single factor test and Box-Behnken response surface design. Us-ing the content of total saponins in elution,the effects of ethanol elution volume fraction on purification technology of total sapo-nins by D101 type macroporous adsorption resin was investigated. RESULTS:The optimal ultrasonic extraction technology was as follows as ethanol volume fraction of 85%,solvent-solid ratio of 18.5∶1 (ml/g),extraction temperature of 80 ℃. In verification test,the average extraction rate of total saponins from M. tenacissima was 4.80%(RSD=1.06%,n=3);it was close to predicted value 4.89%,and the deviation was 1.84%. The optimal purification technology was as follows as 45% ethanol as eluant,90%ethanol for purification. Verification test showed that the average content of total saponins from M. tenacissima was 62.45%(RSD=0.88%,n=3). CONCLUSIONS:The optimized technology can be used for the extraction and purification of total saponins from M. tenacissima. The technology is stable and reliable.

AIM: To investigate the effect of heme oxygenase /carbon monoxide(HO/CO) system on the pathogenesis of hypertension and effect of Heme-L- Lysinate(HLL), Zine protoporphyrin-IX(ZnPPIX) on vascular tension in a two kidney one-clip model. METHODS: The changes in mean arterial pressure and heart rate as well as phenylephrine(PHE)-induced contraction in isolated aortic rings of HLL, ZnPPIX- treated rats were examined after intraperitoneal administration of HLL and carbon monoxide( CO).

AIM: To investigate the effect of heme oxygenase on vascular remodeling in renal hypertension. METHODS: Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into sham-operated, 2K1C (two-kidney one-clip) and hemin-induced groups. Four weeks after the treatments, the thickness of aortic media and HO enzymatic activity of the aorta were determined. Immunohistochemical staining was carried out to detect protein of HO-1 in the aorta. RESULTS: The blood pressure in 2K1C renal hypertension rats started to increase two weeks after the surgery and stabled at a high level at the 4th week. Hemin, an inducer of HO-1, markedly inhibited the increase in blood pressure. Aortic medium thickness of the 2K1C rats at 4th week was 27 5% thicker than that in the sham-operated rats. The thickness of aortic medium of the hemin-induced rats was 16 1% less than that in 2K1C group. At the 4th week after operation, protein level and enzymatic activity of HO-1 in aorta were higher than that in 2K1C group compared to those in the sham-operated group. CONCLUSION: Renal hypertension caused vascular remodeling and the activation of HO-1. HO-1 induction decreased the blood pressure of renal hypertension and reduced vascular remodeling.

Objective To detect the changes of soluble αB-crystallin in X-ray irradiated rat lens,and to explore the potential role of αB-crystallin in the pathogenesis of radiation-induced cataract.Methods The radiation cataract model was established with the accelerator linear in male Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats.The rats were divided into normal control group,experimental control group and X-irradiated group(the doses were 5,15,and 25 Gy,respectively).The rats were killed at 3 morlths post-irradiation,and the lenses were carefully isolated and homogenized.The protein changes of αB-crystallin in lens supernatant were measured by Western blotting.Results Typical radiation-induced cataract was observed in 15 and 25 Gy groups,while the lenses of the normal control group,experimental control group and the 5 Gy irradiation group remained transparent.The αB-crystallin protein level was significandy decreased in a dose-dependent manner(5 Gy group:0.871±0.085;15 Gy group:0.643±0.096;25 Gy group:0.338±0.160;F=40.764,P＜0.05).Conclusions The decreased expression of the molecular chaperone αB-crystallin in X-irradiated rat lens indicates its important role in the pathogenesis of irradiation cataract.
