Objective:To investigate the inhibitory effect of selective angiotensinⅡtype 1 receptor antagonist ZD7155 on pancreatic cancer xenografts of nude mice.Methods:Sixty nude mice were given subcutaneous injections of PaTu8988s cells to establish the pancreatic cancer xenograft models;then the animal models were evenly randomized into 3 groups:low-dose (10 mg?kg~(-1)?d~(-1))ZD7155,high-dose(20 mg?kg~(-1)?d~(-1))ZD7155 and normal saline groups.Ten mice in each group were sacrificed 10 d after treatment and the tumor sizes and body weights were measured.The microvessel density(MVD)was assessed by immunostaining of endothelial cells for CD31 and the cell apoptoses were observed by transmission electron microscope.Another thirty mice were treated for 30 days;the survival period of mice and toxicity of ZD7155 were observed till the 49th day of treatment.Results:Ten days after treatment,the mean tumor volumes in the control,low-dose and high-dose groups were(35.8?6.7)cm~3,(21.5?6.1)cm~3 and (10.7?4.1)cm~3,respectively(P

Objective To investigate the effects and mechanisms of selective angiotensinⅡtype 1 receptor antagonist ZD7155 on the inhibition of pancreatic cancer in vitro.Methods MTT assays were used to determine the inhibition of pancreatic cancer cell line PaTu8988s by ZD7155 in different concen- trations and at different time.PaTu8988s cell cycle and cell apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry. Transmission electron microscope was used to investigate the apoptosis of PaTu8988s before and after the incubation with ZD7155 under different concentrations.PaTu8988s cell morphology was observed be- fore and after the incubation with ZD7155.Results MTT showed that the increase of inhibition of pan- creatic cancer cell by ZD7155 was in agreement with the increase of the concentrations of ZD7155 and the time of the incubation with ZD7155.The inhibition rates of PaTu8988s cells were 9%,18%,30%, 51%,60% and 78% by ZD7155 with the concentrations of 5?10~(-11),5?10~(-10),5?10~(-9),5?10~(-8),5?10~(-7) and 5?10~(-6) mol/L,respectively.The inhibition rates of PaTu8988s cells were 15%,25%, 36%,51%,67% and 85% by ZD7155 with the same concentration(5.0?10~(-8) mol/L)at 12,24,36, 48,60 and 72 hours,respectively.ZD7155 could also inhibit PaTu8988s cell cycle significantly and was dose-dependent.Cell electron microscopy showed that there were chromatin margination and apoptotic body in the cell nucleus when the cells were incubated with ZD7155,and these changes were increase with the concentrations of ZD7155.The morphology of PaTu8988s cell didn't have any change after in- cubation with ZD7155.Conclusions ZD7155 can inhibit the growth of pancreatic cancer cells in vitro by suppressing the S-phase of cell cycle and induce cell apoptosis without visible cell toxic effects.

Objective To establish a stable cell line secreting human IgE Cε2-4 protein, and in-vestigate the binding capacity of receptor FcεR Ⅰ Methods The E24 gene was derived from SKO-O07 cell line, and was then cloned into pcDNA3.1 (+) (signal peptides were synthesized and fused at the 5'-end of E24 gene) or pCMV-L vector. After transient transfection into 293T cell, the secreted F24 protein was ana-lyzed by sandwich ELISA. The best vector was chosen to be transfected into CHO cells with LipofectAMI-NETM 2000 reagent. After being selected by G418 and subcloned three times by limited-dilution method, two stable cell lines were established. E24 gene was amplified by RT-PCR, and the E24 protein in the superna-tant was identified by ELISA. Besides, the binding capacity of FceR ⅠⅡ was analyzed by flow cytometry method. Results Three mammalian expression vector SP-E24-F3. 1, SP lI-E24-P3.1 and E24-PL were constructed and transient transfected to 293T cells. The output of E24 protein in the supernatant were 19.1, 19.4 and 8.7 μg/ml, respectively. Then the vector SP IX-E24-P3.1 was transfected into CHO cells. Final-ly, two single clones secreting E24 protein were stably obtained. The output of E24 were all at least 25 μg/ml. RT-PCR could detect the E24 gene from one of the two clones. Furthermore, flow cytometry results showed that E24 could bind the receptor in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion Two stable cell line se- creting E24 protein were obtained, while E24 could specifically bind FcεR Ⅰ.

OBJECTIVETo compare therapeutic effects of clavicular hook-plate fixation and modified Weaver-Dunn surgery combined with clavicular hook-plate fixation in treating Tossy type III acromioclavicular joint dislocation.

METHODSForty-one patients with Tossy type III acromioclavicular dislocation treated by operation were retrospectively analysis from January 2012 to January 2014. The patients were divided into clavicular hook-plate fixation group (group A) and modified Weaver-Dunn surgery combined with clavicular hook-plate fixation (group B) according to surgical procedures. In group A, there were 15 males and 6 females aged from 17 to 51 years old with an average of (31.60 ± 12.58) years old, preoperative Constant-Murley score was 40.25 ± 9.80, and treated with clavicular hook-plate fixation. In group B, there were 13 males and 7 females aged from 18 to 48 years old with an average of (29.40 ± 11.27) years old, preoperative Constant-Murley score was 41.45 ± 8.81, and treated with modified Weaver-Dunn surgery combined with clavicular hook-plate fixation. Operative time, blood loss, imaging changes before and after operation, postoperative complications were compared; Constant-Murley score at 3, 6 and 12 months after operation were evaluated.

RESULTSIn group A, operative time was 40.50 ± 24.36) min, blood loss was (75.30 ± 30.36) ml; In group B, operative time was (60.10 ± 23.55) min, blood loss was (100.70 ± 40.12) ml. Twenty-one patients in group A were followed-up from 12 to 18 months with an average of (14.8 ± 3.1) months; 20 patients in group B were followed-up from 12 to 14 months with an average of (13.6 ± 1.5) months. There were no significant differences in operative time, blood loss and follow-up time between two groups. Complications were in six patients of group A and 3 patients of group B, and there were no significant meaning between two groups. At 6 months after operation, Constant-Murley score in group A was 88.85 ± 4.23, 92.15 ± 3.82 in group B; and had significant meaning between two groups (t = -2.56, P = 0.022 < 0.05). While there were no differences in Constant-Murley score in other times.

CONCLUSIONBoth of clavicular hook-plate fixation and modified Weaver-Dunn surgery combined with clavicular hook-plate fixation are effective operative methods for the treatment of Tossy type III acromioclavicular dislocation. Clavicular hook-plate fixation has advantage of less trauma, while modified Weaver-Dunn surgery combined with clavicular hook-plate fixation could reconstruct coracoclavicular ligament more stronger, clavicular hook plate could take out earlier, also improve shoulder joint function earlier.

Objective To explore the role of chemokines and ehemokine receptors in the etiopathog-enesis of diffuse proliferative lupus nephritis (LN). Methods ① Total RNA from the kidney tissues and peripheral blood cells of 12 patients with diffuse proliferative LN and 10 normal controls were prepared simultaneously and reverse transcribed into complementary DNA. Sybr green dye based real-time quantitative PCR method was used to compare the expression levels (indicated as-AACt value) of MCP-1, CCL19,CXCLg, CXCL10 and CCR2, CCR7, CXCR3. ② Immunofluoresceee labeling and immunohistochemical staining technique were used to observe the distribution of chemokines MCP-1, CCL19, CXCL9 and CXCL10 in normal and patients kidney tissues. Results The 4 chemokines genes (MCP-1, CCL19, CXCL9 and CXCL10) were consistently highly expressed in kidney tissues and peripheral blood ceils of diffuse proliferative LN patients compared with normal controls. The 2 chemokine receptors, CCR2 and CXCR3 were also overexpressed in peripheral blood cells of diffuse proliferative LN patients. There was nearly no expression of these 4 chemokine proteins in normal kidneys. But they were found in glomeruli of diffuse proliferative LN patients. Conclusion The expression of chemokines in the peripheral blood cells may be used as biomarkers for LN. Further study maybe lead to the development of specific drugs targeting at them for the treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).

Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate whether PRDM16 gene polymorphisms were associated with dyslipidemia. Methods The polymorphisms of rs2651899, rs2236518, rs870171, and rs2282198 in PRDM16 gene in 528 participants were genotyped by the method of snapshot or ligase detection reaction. The genotype differences and the allele differences between the case group and the control group were analyzed. Linkage disequilibrium analysis was performed with SHE-sis online software. The interaction between rs2651899, rs2236518, rs870171, rs2282198 and gender, age, BMI were analyzed by MDR software. Results The frequency of allele A in rs2651899 locus was significantly higher in low HDL-C group compared with that in control group[OR(95%CI)=1.32(1.02-1.71), P=0.033]. The frequency of A/C genotype in rs870171 was significantly different between LDL-C abnormal group and control group[OR(95% CI)=1.97(1.01-3.86), P=0.037]. There may be interaction between rs2236518 and sex, which is a risk factor for low HDL-C[Model Ⅱ: OR(95% CI)=1.958(1.366-2.809), P<0.01]. There may be interactions among rs2651899, rs2236518, rs870171, and rs2282198, which seemed to be risk factors for lower HDL-C[Model Ⅳ: OR(95% CI)=3.991(2.707-5.884), P<0.01]. rs870171, rs2282198 may have interaction with age, which is a risk factor for high LDL-C [Model Ⅶ: OR(95%CI)=3.991(2.707-5.884), P<0.01]. Conclusion Allele A of rs2651899 may be a risk factor to low HDL-C. Under the codominant inheritance patterns, genotype A/C of rs870171 may be a risk factor to high LDL-C. In addition, there may be interaction between SNPs with gender and age.

Objective To explore the mechanism by which the anti-human P185erbB2 scFv-Fc-IL-2(HFI)modulates tumor surface molecules and activates immune effector cells in vitro. MethodsMTT assay was used to test the proliferation and the LAK-like cytotoxicity. Flow cytometry assay was used to test the expression of ICAM-1, Fas and erbB2 receptors in tumor cells and the expression levels of CD molecules FasL and LFA-1 in human PBMC. Antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity(ADCC)mediated by HFI against SKOV3, MCF-7 and SGC-7901 tumor cells was explored hv LDH release assay. Results The expression levels of ICAM-1 and Fas on SKOV3 cell treated with HFI were upregulated, from 24.85％ and 0.53％ to 85.36％ and 59.19％ respectively, while the expression levels of erbB2 on SKOV3, MCF-7 and SGC-7901 tumor cells treated with HFI were downregulated, from 98.48％, 42.60％ and 36.66％ to 94.01％,30.95％ and 12.36％ respectively. HFI could significantly enhance the proliferation activity of human PBMC, and CD3+ CD8+ T cells and CD3- CD16+ CD56+ NK cells were elevated, from 24.37％ and 6.90％ to 38.80％ and 13.45％ respectively. The expression levels of CD25, LFA-1 and FasL were significantly enhanced from 3.99％, 86.52％ and 5.02％ to 12.96％, 99.06％ and 16.19％. The LAK-like cytotoxicity of human PBMC treated with HFI against SKOV3, MCF-7,SGC-7901 tumor cells was significantly improved:HFI was effective in mediating ADCC against SKOV3,MCF-7 and SGC-7901 tumor cells which expressed high,medium and low levels of erbB2,respectively,and HFI-induced ADCC was correlated with the degrees of erbB2 expression on the tumor cells. Conclusion The expression levels of ICAM-1 and Fas on SKOV3 cell treated with HFI are significantly upregulated. The expression levels of erbB2 on SKOV3, MCF-7 and SGC-7901 tumor cells treated with HFI are downregulated. HFI can significantly enhance the proliferation activity of human PBMC. The LAK-like eytotoxicity of human PBMC treated with HFI against tumor cells is significantly enhanced. HFI iS effective in mediating ADCC and the activity of HFI-induced ADCC is correlated with the degrees of erbB2 expression on the tumor cells.
