Objective:To investigate the reversing effect of recombinant mutant human tumor necrosis factor (rmh-TNF) on cisplatin(DDP)-resistant human ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3/DDP in vitro and the related mechanism. Methods: DDP-resistant human ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3/DDP was cultured in vitro. The cytotoxic effect of rmh-TNF to SKOV3/DDP cells was examined by MTT assay and the nontoxic dose of rmh-TNF was identified. The changes of DDP resistance was observed after cells were treated with nontoxic dose of rmh-TNF by MTT assay. The expre-ssion of GST-? protein was examined by flow cytometry at different periods after rmh-TNF intervention; RT-PCR was used to analyze the expression of MDR1gene in SKOV3/DDP cells before and after rmh-TNF treatment. Results:(1)rmh-TNF at 50-122.34 U/ml showed no evident inhibitory effect on the growth of SKOV3/DDP cells (the cell survival rate higher than 90%); and 100 U/ml was chosen for the reversing experiment ( nontoxic dose).(2)IC50 values of SKOV3/DDP cells were (23.29?0.43), (8.97?0.69) and (6.43?0.79) ?g/ml after treatment with DDP for 24, 48 and 72 h, respectively; and the values decreased to (19.50?0.50),(4.34?0.43) and (2.44?0.02)?g/ml after combined treatment with 100 U/ml rmh-TNF, respectively.(3)Expression of GST-? protein and MDR1gene decreased with the prolongation of rmh-TNF treatment. Conclusion: rmh-TNF has reversal effect on the DDP-resistant cell line SKOV3/DDP, and the mechanism may be associated with the down-regulation of GST-? protein and MDR1gene expression.

Objective To explore the relationship between metabolic syndrome and ApoA5 gene polymorphism and serum concentration. Methods 100 patients with metabolic syndrome(MS group) and 100 healthy people(control group) were enrolled in this study. The ApoA5 serum concentration of two groups were measured by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA), the genotypes of ApoA5-1131T>C polymorphism were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism, and fasting blood glucose (FBG), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein (LDL), high density lipoprotein (HDL) and white blood cell, hemoglobin,platelet, liver and kidney function were measured. Results MS group was compared with control group. In MS group, the ApoA5 serum concentration was significantly lower[(96.68±18.09)ng/ml vs (128.32±23.78)ng/ml,P<0.01], while the triglycerides levels were obviously higher[(2.35±1.07)mmol/L vs (1.62±1.13)mmol/L,P<0.01], and ApoA5-1131C allele frequency was higher than that in control group (30% vs 16.5%,P<0.05). Conclusions The ApoA5 serum concentration in metabolic syndrome was decreased, and ApoA5-1131C was associated with metabolic syndrome.

Objective:To investigate the effects of pregnancy and lactation nonylphenol (NP) exposure on the balance of Treg/Th17 cells in the brain of offspring mice and the related mechanisms.Methods:Thirty pregnant C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into three groups: control group (drinking distilled water), and NP-treated groups (drinking 0.2 μg/ml or 2.0 μg/ml NP water solution). ELISA kit was used to analyze the levels of TNF-α, IFN-γ and IL-17, flow cytometry was used to analyze the frequency of Treg and Th17 cells in spleen, quantitative RT-PCR was used to analyze the RORγt, Foxp3 mRNA, Western blot was used to analyze the protein expression of RORγt, Foxp3 and PI3K/Akt/mTOR signal pathway, and immunofluorescence was used to analyze the expression of Iba1 in the brain tissue of offspring mice.Results:Compared with the control group, NP exposure increased the serum levels of IL-17 and TNF-α in male offspring mice ( P<0.05), and decreased the levels of IFN-γ( P<0.05). Flow cytometry analysis showed that the percentage of Th17 cells in the spleen of male offspring mice exposed to NP (0.2 μg/ml or 2.0 μg/ml) was significantly higher than that of the control group, while the percentage of Tregs cells was lower. Compared with the control group, the expression levels of Foxp3 proteins in the brain tissue of male offspring mice exposed to NP (0.2 μg/ml or 2.0 μg/ml) was significantly lower, accompanied by a dramatic increase in RORγt protein levels ( P<0.05). Similar mRNA expression was also observed in qRT-PCR analysis. The protein expression levels of mTOR (p-mTOR) and its upstream related regulators[PI3K, p-Akt (Ser473), p-Akt (Thr308)] in the brain of male offspring mice increased gradually during the period of exposure to NP( P<0.05). Immunofluorescence analysis showed that compared with the control group, the number of Iba1 positive cells in brain tissue of male offspring mice exposed to NP (0.2 μg/ml or 2.0 μg/ml) increased significantly ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Maternal exposure to NP during pregnancy and lactation may affect the development/function of neurons in offspring through neuroimmune axis, and increase the risk of neurodevelopmental disorders in offspring.

Objective · To detect the vitamin D2 and D3 levels in the patients with moderate and severe depression. Methods · Eighty-five patientswho met the criteria for major depressive disorder were recruited (53 patients with moderate depression, 32 patients with severe depression). Fifty agematchedhealthy volunteers were recruited as controls. Serum 25 (OH) D2, 25 (OH) D3 and total 25 (OH) D2/D3 levels were detected by using liquidchromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The risk factors which might influence the severity of depression were screened by Logisticregression analysis. Results · The serum 25 (OH) D2, 25 (OH) D3 and total 25 (OH) D2/D3 levels in the case group was lower than those in the controlgroup (P=0.012, P=0.000, P=0.000). The patients with moderate depression presented significantly lower serum 25 (OH) D3 and total 25 (OH) D2/D3 levelsthan the controls did (P=0.000), although no significant difference in serum 25 (OH) D2 levels was found between these two groups. As well, the serum 25 (OH) D2, 25 (OH) D3 and total 25 (OH) D2/D3 levels in patients with severe depression were significantly lower than those in patients with moderate depression and controls (P<0.05). The body mass index of severe depression group was much higher than that of moderate depression group and control group (P=0.002). Both overweight/obesity and the concentration of vitamin D may be the major influencing factors of depression severity (P=0.034, P=0.011). Conclusion · Vitamin D2 and D3 deficiency in depressive patients, particularly in those patients with severe depression, was shown in the present study. In addition, overweight/obesity as well as the concentration of vitamin D may exert the significant influence on the severity of depression. Vitamin D supplementation and weight control may be needed to be considered in making therapeutic strategies of major depressive disorder.
