Chinese Journal of Perinatal Medicine 2009;12(1):41-45
Objective To investigate the effects of cobalt chloride(COCl2)induced rat alveolar epithelial cell apoptosis and the significance of related apoptosis protein hypoxia inducible factor-lalpha(HIF-1 a)expression. Methods Alveolar epithelial cells were cultured in vitro and divided into four groups with 6 samples in each.Hypoxia 4 h group:added 500μmol/L COCl2 for 4 hours inducing alveolar epithelial cell hypoxia;hypoxia 24 h group:co-cultured with COCl2 for 24 hours;hypoxia 48 h group:co-cultured with CoCl2 for 48 hours;control group:no CoCl2 added.The apoptosis rates were detected by fluorescent microscope and flow cytometry.The apoptosis morphological changes of the cell were observed by transmission electron microscopy.The protein expression of HIF-la was detected bv Western Blot. Results (1)Fluorescent microscope results showed that apoptosis rate in hypoxia 4 h、24 h、48 h group[(5.83±0.76)%,(15.00±3.28)%and(51.50±3.00)%],were higher than control group[(1.50±0.50)%](P<0.05).(2)Flow cytometry analysis reached the same results as with fluorescent microscope.(3)Typical morphological changes of apoptosis were observed in hypoxia 24 h group.(4)HIF-1α expression in hypoxia 4 h、24 h and 48 h groups[0.69±0.035,1.02±0.044 and 0.71±0.046],were higher than control group(0.21±0.026)(P<0.01).(5)Positive correlations were found between relative amount of HIF-1αprotein and apoptosis rate by fluorescent microscope and flow cytometry analysis(r=0.484,P=0.016;r=0.713,P=0.009).Conclusions Hypoxia could induce apoptosis of alveolar epithelial cells,which may participate in the pathogenesis of hypoxia-induced lung injury.

Aim To investigate the effects of Aplysin on the inhibition of gastric cancer cell in vitro .Methods MTT assay was used to examine the inhibition of gastric cancer cell 1ine SGC-7901 by Aplysin in different concentrations and at different times.The morphologic changes and the apoptosis of SGC-7901 was observed by inverted microscope and Hematoxylin-Eosin(HE)staining.Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)assay was used to detect the changes of COX-2 mRNA expressions.Results Aplysin could decrease the proliferation significantly in a dose-dependent manner in SGC-7901 cells.When treating SGC-7901 with Aplysin in concentration of 120, 240 mg·L~(-1) for 24 h, the growth of the cell was obviously inhibited observing by inverted microscope.Aiso, when treating with the same concentration for 18 h, its chromatin became crimpled and breakdown, as well as cell shrinkage and apoptotic bodies formation when using HE staining.The apoptotic rates(%)of SGC-7901 was(15.0±2.12)%, (18.4±2.3)%, respectively, which was significantly higher than(1.4±0.55)% that in control group(P <0.01).60、120、240 mg·L~(-1) Aplysin could not effectively inhibited the mRNA expressions of COX-2(P >0.05).Conclusions Aplysin can inhibit the proliferation and induces apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells.

Objective To investigate the antitumor and immunologic activities of Laurencia extract(LET) in Sarcoma 180(S 180).Methods The content of total terpenoids in LET was detected by RP-HPLC and its toxicity(LD 50) was estimated by Horn assay. Tumor inhibition rates, index of thymus and spleen, proliferation of spleen lymph cells, IgA,IgG,IgM were detected. The data were analyzed by SPSS software. Results The content of total terpenoids in LET was proved to be 63.29%. LET showed low toxicity with its LD 50 more than 3160mg?kg -1. Tumor inhibition rates of test groups were significantly higher than those of the control group. LET could obviously increase the levels of index of thymus and spleen. LET increase the multiplication of spleen lymph cell.Concentrations of IgA、IgG and IgM in plasma of the test groups were higher than those of the control group. Conclusion LET rich in terpenoids is safety to be taken orally. The alga extract showed obvious antitumor activities and immunologic functions.

?Pathological myopia are often complicated by a series of pathological changes in fundus including foveoschisis, which can lead to visual dysfunction when processing with retinal detachment, macular hole, epiretinal membrane and vitreoretinal traction diseases. According to the current knowledge, the main mechanism of foveoschisisi might be attributed to the impaired macular structure and function caused by a variety of traction on the retinal and retina poor condition. Surgical treatments have been reported to be effective in treating foveoschisis, however, the indications and surgical procedures are still controversial. ln this article, we reviewed the clinical features, diagnosis, treatment strategies and prognosis of pathological myopia foveoschisis.

Objective:To investigate the effect of Laurencia terpenoid extract (LET) on tumor inhibition,immune modulation and apoptosis of Sarcoma 180 cell. Method:The LD50 of LET was estimated by Horn assay. The models of S180-bearing mice were established and divided into 4 groups which were given LET 0 (control group), 25 (low-dose group), 50 (mid-dose group), 100 (high-dose group) mg/kg bw respectively for 10 d. Tumor inhibition rates were detected in treatment groups and control group respectively. To weigh exactly the thymus and spleen to calculate their indices. The proliferation effect of LET on spleen lymphocyte was evaluated by MTT assay. The apoptosis of tumor cell was assayed by flow cytometry. Results:The LD50 was more than 3 160 mg/kg bw. LET had low toxicity. The average tumor weights of the supplemented groups were all less than the control group(P

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of infectious diseases of CNS.Methods Inpatients treated in the second hospital of Hebei Medical University from 1996 to 2005 were subjected to retrospective study.Results During 10 years,the hospitalization number of infectious diseases of CNS was 3929.The proportion of inpatients with viral meningitis(encephalitis),cerebral cysticercosis,tuberculous meningitis(TBM),purulent meningitis(PM)and cryptococcal meningitis(CM) was 63.8%,17.4%,7.7%,0.7% respectively.The hospitalization number of viral meningitis (encephalitis),TBM,PM and CM in the 2001—2005 5-year period was 53.5%,21.3%,35.3%,and 77.3% higher than that of the 1996—2000 period.Whereas the hospitalization number of cerebral cysticercosis decreased by 32.4% than that of the last 5 years.The peak months of viral meningitis (encephalitis)in a year were July,August and September.The peak months of TBM in a year were April, May and June.The case fatality of viral meningitis(encephalitis),cerebral cysticercosis,TBM,PM and CM was 8.1%,6.9%,22.4%,12.9%,33.3% respectively.Conclusions In the past l0 years,the incidence of common infectious diseases of CNS has increased in Shijiazhuang except cerebral cysticercoids. Our vigilance should be improved and some effective measures should be adopted to keep away infectious diseases of CNS.
