Objective: To study the effects of immature orange fruit(IOF) and dried tangerine peel(DTP) on the resting tension of isolated aortic muscle strips in rabbits and their mechanisms. Methods: The organ-bath was used to observe the response of aortic strip to IOF and DTP. Results: IOF and DTP dose-dependently increased the tension of aortic strip, and the action of IOF was more significant than that of the same concentration DTP. 10 -7 mol/L phentolamine, 10 -5 mol/L verapamil or incubation with Ca 2+ -free Krebs solution could block the effects of IOF and DTP partly, but 10 -6 mol/L diphenhydramine could not. In endothelium-removed aortic strips, the effects of IOF and DTP decreased after treatment with 10 -7 mol/L atropine. Conclusions: IOF and DTP can contract vascular smooth muscle, which probably contribute to ? adrenergic receptor, cholinergic M receptor on membrane of vascular smooth muscle partly, and is dependent Ca 2+ influx through verapamil-sensitive Ca 2+ channels, but is not related to H 1 histamine receptor.

AIM: To detect the protein expression of protein gene product (PGP9.5) in cervical carcinoma samples, and to explore its relationship with clinicopathological features and prognosis of cervical carcinoma patients.The potential value of PGP9.5-siRNA in the treatment of cervical cancer was preliminarily investigated in vitro.METHODS:The clinical data of cervical cancer patients ( n=180 ) who received surgical treatment in Department of Gynecology of Tianjin Fifth Central Hospital and Tianjin Central Hospital of Gynecology and Obstetrics from January 2008 to June 2015 were retrospectively analyzed.Immunohistochemical staining for PGP9.5 in all pathological specimens from cervical cancer biopsy was performed.The patients were divided into high expression of PGP9.5 group and low expression of PGP9.5 group.The relationship between PGP9.5 expression and clinicopathological parameters, such as age, HPV infection, path-ological grade, tumor diameter, lymph node metastasis, depth of invasion and clinical stage, were analyzed.The overall survival was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test.The PGP9.5-siRNA, NC-siRNA, PGP9.5 eukaryotic expression plasmid and empty vector were transfected into the SiHa cells, and the effects of PGP9.5 expression on the abili-
ties of colony formation and cell invasion were determined by Western blot, colony formation assay and Transwell experi-ment.RESULTS:The relationships between the expression level of PGP9.5 and patients’ pathological characteristics in-cluding grade, tumor size, lymph node metastasis, depth of invasion, vascular involvement and clinical stage were statisti-cally significant ( P<0.05) .The overall survival rates of 3 and 5 years in PGP9.5 high expression group were significantly lower than those in PGP9.5 low expression group ( P<0.05 ) .Compared with control group, the protein expression of PGP9.5, the number of colony formation and the number of invasive cells in si-PGP9.5 group were significantly decreased. The protein expression of PGP9.5, the number of colony formation and the number of invasive cells in PGP9.5 group were significantly increased.CONCLUSION:Over-expression of PGP9.5 protein indicates poor prognosis of cervical cancer, which may be a good predictor for the prognosis of cervical cancer patients.Inhibition of PGP9.5 expression may be an ef-fective way of gene therapy for cervical cancer.

Objective: To investigate primary gastrointestinal B cell non Hodgkin’s lymphoma for clinicopathological features, proliferation, apoptosis and its association with Helicobacter pylori (HP). Methods: Classification of tumors, expression of HP, proliferation and apoptosis related gene products were studied by immunohistochemistry. Apoptosis was studied by TUNEL (TdT [terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase] dUTP nick end labeling). Results: There were 15 cases of mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma (9 in stomach, 6 in intestine) and 42 cases of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) (28 in stomach, 14 in intestine) in all the 57 cases of primary gastrointestinal BCL. The average apoptotic indexes (AI) were 0.16%, 2.54% in MALT lymphoma and DLBCL respectively. The average proliferation indexes (PI) were 2.22% and 8.71%,respectively. The p53 positive rates were 6.7% and 35.7%. PI ( P =0.026) and p53 ( P =0.044) had significant differences; But Bcl 2 positive rates were 60.0% and 35.7%,and HP positive rates were 66.7% and 23.8%, respectively. HP had significant differences ( P =0.005). Conclusion: HP and gastrointestinal MALT lymphoma had significant relation. Apoptosis and proliferative activity were higher in DLBCL than in MALT. The higher Bcl 2 expression in MALT may be related to lower apoptosis. p53 promotes apoptosis and p53 gene mutation may play a role in the progression from MALT to DLBCL. HP antibody may be used in HP detection in gastrointestinal BCL.
