OBJECTIVE This study is to investigate the effects on nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell lines(CNE-2Z)induced by As2O3 and its possible mechanisms.METHODS CNE-2Z cells were treated with various concentrations of As2O3 for different times.The IC50 values were detected by trypan blue stain assay to choose the optimal concentration of As2O3.Cell cycle redistribution was analyzed by flow cytometry.The expression levels of p16、 RASSF1A、DNMT 3B mRNA were assessed by RT-PCR.RESULTS The suppression of cell proliferation by As2O3 was time and dose-dependent.After being treated with different concentration of As2O3,the IC50 values of As2O3 were(1.50?0.05),(1.09?0.13),(0.65?0.04)?mol/L at 24,48,and 72h,respectively.As2O3 also arrested CNE-2Z cells in G2/M phase of cell cycle.After CNE-2Z cells being treated with As2O3,the expression of RASSF1A mRNA were up-regulated(P

Objective To compare the short-term curative effects of prucalopride and mosapride respectively combined with low dose polyethylene glycol in treating elderly refractory functional constipation.Methods Ninety patients with elderly refractory functional constipation in the outpatient department of our hospital from May 2014 to February 2016 were retrospectively analyzed and divided into two groups randomly,45 cases in each group.the prucalopride group:Prucalopride Succinate Tablets,2mg,4 times daily;the mosapride group:Mosapride Citrate Capsules,5mg,3 times daily.Polyethylene Glycol Electrolytes Powder(PEG) was also used in the two groups,13.125g,twice daily.The course of treatment was 4 weeks.The first defecating time and defecation difficulty relief time,average weekly spontaneous complete bowel movements (SCBM),defecating difficulty,stool character,adverse reactions and change of life quality were observed in the two groups.Results The treatment effective rate of slow transit constipation(STC) and defecatory disorder had the statistical difference between the two groups (P<0.05).The comparison of the effective rates in mixed type showed no statistical difference between the two groups(P>0.05).Compared with the mosapride group,the first defecating time and defecation difficulty relief time in the prucalopride group were shorter with statistical difference (P<0.05).After 4-week treatment,SCBM times per week in the two groups were more than 3 times;the times of the prucalopride group were even more.In the prucalopride group,the defecation difficulty improvement was more obvious,the difference between the two groups had statistical significance (P<0.05).As for the comparison of the stool character improvement,the difference had no statistical significance(P>0.05).The total effective rate had statistical difference between the two groups(P<0.05).The incidence rate of adverse reactions had no statistical difference between the two groups(17.78% vs.15.56%,P<0.05).The total average score of PAC-QOL after treatment in the two groups were both decreased,moreover the decrease in the prucalopride group was more obvious;the difference between the two groups had statistical significance(P<0.05).Conclusion Prucalopride +PEG take effect faster in the treatment of elderly refractory functional constipation and has the advantages in the aspects of overall curative effect and life quality improvement,which is specially suitable for STC and defecatory disorder type.

Objective Taking CNE-2Z multicellular spheroids (MCSs) as the simulation of solid tumors, to investigate the role of SAPK/JNK signaling pathway in multicellular resistance to radiotherapy for human nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Methods Human NPC cell line CNE-2Z were cultured into multicellular spheroids by using liquid overlay technique, then divided into control MCSs, irradiated MCSs (average dose in one minute: 2 Gy), sp-600125(a specific inhibitor for SAPK/JNK signaling pathway)+irradiated MCSs, sp-600125+MCSs. Western blotting was employed to analyze the activity of SAPK/JNK signaling pathway in MCSs, and the expression of Caspase-3 protein before and after sp-600125 treatment; X-ray induced cell apoptotisis in MCSs before and after sp-600125 treatment was detected by TUNEL. Results The level of SAPK/JNK phosphorylation in MCSs was a dynamic course after radiation, and the phosphorylation peaked at 2 h after irradiation; The apoptotic rate of MCSs (P

Objective To evaluate the clinical features and guanosine triphosphate cyclohydrolase 1 (GCH-1) gene mutation in a family with dopa-responsive dystonia (DRD).Methods The clinical features of this family were collected and their peripheral blood samples were screened for mutation in GCH-1 gene using PCR and DNA direct sequencing.Results The clinical features among each patient in this family were different.But all affected family members had quite a good response to levodopa treatment without significant adverse reactions.DNA test showed an AT deletion mutation at point of 631-632 in the 6th exon of GCH-1 gene in 5 affected members and 1 asymptomatic immediate family member.Conclusions Clinical heterogeneity is an important characteristic of DRD and clinical symptoms vary intra-families.Same gene type may cause different phenotype and not all carriers are patients.The deletion mutation at point of 631-632 in the 6th exon of GCH-1 gene should be considered as a pathogenic mutation for DRD.

Objective To analyze the changes of energy metabolism-related proteins(enzymes) and transformation of energy metabolism in transplanted heart.Methods The hearts transplanted from Lewis to Wister rats as allografts and from Lewis to Lewis rats as isografts were used to estab- lish Ono model.The changes in proteins were observed by using proteomics technique and compared between allografts and isografts in the left ventricular myocardial tissues 2 and 8 weeks after heart transplantation.Peptide mass fingerprint map was obtained by using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ ionization time of flight mass spectrometry(MALDI-TOF-MS)and the matched proteins achieved by using Matrix Science software.Results Eighty proteins(enzymes)of total 65 differential proteins that regulated energy metabolism were identified in allografted hearts,which correlated to the Krebs cycle and electron transport system involving glycometabolism,fatty acid and branched-chain amino acids oxidation.Conclusion The energy metabolism in allografts heart was transformed:mitochondria function was decreased in Krebs cycle but enhanced in electron transport system and outer mitoehon- drial membrane permeability to ATP,accelerated in glycolysis and fatty acid oxidation,however, branched-chain amino acids oxidation were suppressed.

Aim To establish the rat model of Spleen-Qi deficiency, analyse the metabolic pathways and investigate the connection between the changed urinary metabolites and Spleen-Qi deficiency, in order to explore the potential mechanisms of Spleen-Qi deficiency.Methods With the binding methods of diarrhea induced by bitter and cold, abnormal of starvation and excessive tiredness, the rat Spleen-Qi deficiency model was established.Then the activity of creatine phosphokinase(CPK) was detected.The endogenous metabolites in the urine were detected by NMR, and the data were analyzed with multivariate and statistical methods.Then the metabolites were selected that could be clearly distinct in the two groups with the fold change value(>1.2) and the P<0.05 of Student′s t-test.Both the pathway analysis and enrichment analysis were performed with Metabo Analyst 3.0.Results Compared with the normal rats, the activity of CPK decreased significantly in model rats(P<0.05).A significant separation appeared in the principal components analysis(PCA) score plot when the control group and the model group were compared, indicating that the Spleen-Qi deficiency model was successfully duplicated.The 33 differential metabolites, which mainly involved in the metabolic pathways, were distinguished from the comparision of Spleen-Qi deficiency model group and control group.The metabolic pathways was related to energy metabolism, amino acid metabolism, nucleotide metabolism and disturbance of gut microbes.Conclusions The main energy metabolic pathways (tricarboxylic acid cycle, glycolysis and liquid oxidation) may be disturbed in Spleen-Qi deficiency rats.The energy supply function is suppressed, which leads to the fatigue and weight loss in rats.

Objective To observe the maxillary alveolar cortical bone and cancellous bone mineral density of patients with different degree of dental fluorosis.Methods According to the diagnostic criteria of dental fluorosis (WS/T 208-2011),from March 2015 to March 2017,30 orthodontic dental fluorosis patients were selected in Guiyang Stomatological Hospital.According to the degree of tooth damage,patients were divided into mild,moderate and severe fluorosis groups,10 cases per group;10 normal orthodontic patients were selected as control group.A cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) was taken preoperatively to measure the CT values (the attenuation value after absorption of X-rays through the tissue,HU) of buccal alveolar cortical bone and cancellous bone density in incisor,canine,premolar,and molar areas.Results The buccal alveolar cortical bone densities of incisor [(1 155.6 ± 80.7),(1 048.8 ± 106.7),(885.1 ± 118.1),(589.7 ± 104.6) HU],canine [(1 221.0 ± 76.l),(1 054.6 ± 95.3),(913.3 ± 109.4),(608.5 ± 131.4) HU],premolar [(1 173.5 ± 91.2),(1 020.9 ± 113.3),(894.5 ± 107.9),(593.5 ± 119.7) HU],and molar [(1 113.6 ± 89.5),(1 017.2 ± 101.3),(877.2 ± 102.9),(609.1 ± 113.5) HU] areas in control,mild,moderate and severe fluorosis groups,were significantly different statistically (F =45.557,51.411,61.200,56.845,P ＜ 0.01),CT values of dental fluorosis group were significant lower than that of control group (P ＜ 0.05).The cancellous bone mineral density of the incisor [(633.4 ± 67.7),(556.8 ± 80.1),(473.1 ± 71.7),(358.8 ± 98.7) HU],canine [(644.9 ± 70.1),(570.6 ± 73.3),(490.0 ± 85.2),(361.1 ± 93.8) HU],premolar [(630.5 ± 72.5),(554.5 ± 70.7),(477.7 ± 84.0),(353.6 ± 101.4) HU],and molar [(637.6 ± 79.8),(558.5 ± 84.3),(471.7 ± 72.8),(367.7 ± 88.7) HU] areas in control,mild,moderate and severe fluorosis groups,were significantly different statistically (F =20.183,20.245,22.751,21.268,P ＜ 0.01),CT values of dental fluorosis group were significant lower than that of control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The bone density of maxillary alveolar cortical bone and cancellous bone is reduced in dental fluorosis patients.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the significance of 8F-FDG PET-CT in the diagnosis of the recurrence and metastasis of head-and-neck tumor after definitive treatment. METHOD: Forty-two patients having received definitive treatment for head-and-neck tumor of whom the tumor could not be identified clinically underwent 18F-FDG PET-CT examination. Follow-up data could be obtained for all foci identified on PET-CT images. PET-CT and CT accuracy was compared on the basis of follow-up and histopathologic findings. RESULT: A total of 103 foci were noted on PET-CT images. Identified by follow-up data, the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy were 92.55%, 42.11% and 84.07% respectively for CT examination, and 100.00%, 52.63%, and 92.04% for PET-CT respectively. The sensitivity and accuracy of PET-CT were significantly higher than those of CT (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), whereas the difference in specificity between the results of these two groups was not significant (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION The major benefits of FDG PET were that it differentiates scar and relapse, as well as detects LN and distant metastasis. Detailed clinical information and inclusion of results of morphological diagnostics are prerequisites for PET-CT final image interpretation, while scans should not be performed less than 6 weeks after definitive treatment.
