BACKGROUND:Cancer stem cel s have self-renewal ability and can differentiate into new tumors. Cancer stem cel s are the source of tumor formation and recurrence, and they can make tumors insensitive to radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of paclitaxel plus cisplatin on the proliferation and apoptosis of nasopharyngeal cancer stem cel s (NPCSCs) and involved signal pathways.
METHODS:NPCSCs were sorted by immunomagneticbeads and were treated with paclitaxel, cisplatin or their combination. The expression of caspase-3, activated caspase-3 and Bcl-2, which are related to apoptosis, was determined by western blot. The expression ofβ-catenin and its downstream proto-oncogene, c-myc, was also determined by western blot. The activity of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway was inhibited by knocking downβ-catenin expression orβ-catenin inhibitor XAV939. Proliferation and apoptosis of NPCSCs were detected by MTT and flow cytometry, respectively.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Either paclitaxel or cisplatin could inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis of NPCSCs. The expression of apoptosis marker, activated caspase-3, was increased and the expression of the inhibitor of apoptosis, Bcl-2, was declined. Combined use of paclitaxel and cisplatin had synergistic effect when used together. Either paclitaxel or cisplatin could inhibit the expression ofβ-catenin and c-myc, suppressed the proliferation and induced the apoptosis of NPCSCs by inhibiting the activity of Wnt/β-catenin pathway. These results indicate that the combined use of paclitaxel and cisplatin may inhibit the proliferation of NPCSCs and promote apoptosis via the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

The noninvasive measurement of liver stiffness (LS) was evaluated by transient elastography (FibroScan) and the possible influencing factors from the patients' clinical situations including age, gender, liver inflammation represented by alanine transaminase (ALT) and total billirubin (TBIL) level, HBV replication (HBV DNA loads), portal vein pressure (portal vessel diameter, PVD), splenic thickness (SPT) and body mass index (BMI) were analyzed in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). A total of 466 patients including 31 patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF), and 435 patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) among which 82 patients were diagnosed with liver cirrhosis (LC) by clinical manifestations and liver B-type ultrasonic inspection were enrolled at Tongji Hospital from April to December 2009. LS was measured by a FibroScan device (EchoSens, France). Simultaneously, ALT and TBIL levels, HBV DNA loads, PVD, SPT and BMI in all patients were also tested. Forty-one healthy volunteers served as controls. The values of LS were correlated positively with ages of CHB patients and significantly higher in males than in females. In patients with BMI>28 kg/m(2) (obesity) and abnormal levels of ALT and TBIL, LS values were significantly increased as compared with those having normal levels of ALT and TBIL. The patients with ACLF had the highest LS value. Furthermore, LS values in the patients with LC were significantly higher than those in patients without LC. It is concluded that noninvasive measurement of liver fibrosis by FibroScan provides an alternative method to evaluate liver fibrosis of patients with CHB. In order to properly illustrate the stiffness value taken by transient elastography, patients' gender should be taken into consideration and it is also suggested to avoid possible influencing factors including liver inflammation (high levels of ALT and TBIL) and obesity (high BMI).

Objective To investigate the clinical features, phenotypes and genotypes of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) strains isolated from patients with diabetic foot infection (DFI) resisting to aminoglycosides antibiotics (AmAn). Methods The clinical profiles of 209 DFI patients hospitalized in the Tianjin Metabolic Diseases Hospital were collected and ana?lyzed. Forty-one PA strains were identified, and their antibiotic resistance profiles were obtained. The DNAs of PA isolates were extracted and applied to amplifications for several aminoglycosides modifying enzyme genes, including aac(3′)-Ⅰ, aac (3′)-Ⅱ, aac(6′)-Ⅰb, aac(6′)-Ⅱ, ant(2′′)-Ⅰand ant(3′′)-Ⅰby PCR method. Combining with the clinical features and the antibiotic resistance profiles, the relationship between genotypes and phenotypes of the PA strains was analyzed. Results Gram positive bacteria (G+) were the majority of the pathogen with 51.67%detection rate. The total detection rate of PA was 19.62%, listed as the top one pathogenic bacterium among gram negative bacteria (47.67%). There was significant difference in the ratio of ulcer area≥4 cm2 between PA group and non-PA group and G+group. There were significantly higher inci?dence rate of ischemic ulcer and osteomyelitis in PA group than those of G+group. There were higher clinical characteristics and ulcer depth (SAD) score, and increased hypersensitive C-reactive protein in PA group than those of G+ group. There were 30 strains of PA being resistant to AmAn (73.17%). The predominant drug resistance gene to AmAn was ant(3′′)-Ⅰ(65.85%), and aac(3′)-Ⅰgene was not found from all PA isolates. Conclusion The detection rate of PA isolated from DFI patients was higher, and patients were with the characteristics of larger, deeper and severe ischemia of ulcer area. The phe?nomenon of PA resistant to AmAn was more serious, and ant(3′′)-Ⅰgene identified from PA isolates was the most common resistance gene identified to AmAn.
