Objective To determine whether altered expression of apoptosis pathway genes is related to different apoptosis susceptibility of prostate cancer cells. Methods Androgen sensitive and insensitive prostate cancer cell lines LNCaP and PC 3 were cultured and treated by etoposide,and apoptosis were determined using Hoechst 33258 staining.The cells were harvested and the total RNA was extracted.cDNA probes were prepared and labeled with biotin 16 dUTP,then hybridized to commercially available cDNA arrays including apoptosis pathway specific genes. Results Apoptosis were induced in both PC 3 and LNCaP cells by etoposide,however,PC 3 was more resistant than LNCaP.Compared with LNCaP cells,the 4 fold down regulated genes in PC 3 cells were Bcl10,CIDE A,GADD45a,RIP2,caspase 4,5 and 6,while the 4 fold up regulated gene in PC 3 cells was TRAF4.Caspase 14 and TNFR2 were most strongly expressed genes in the 2 cell lines. Conclusions The altered expressions of apoptosis pathway specific genes are related to the different apoptosis susceptibility,and this may make an important contribution to androgen insensitive state of prostate cancer cells.

Background and purpose: The metastasis-associated in colon cancer-1 (MACC1) is highly expressed in different cancers and has an effect on the proliferation and apoptosis of tumor cells through the regulation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)1/2 pathway. However, the role of MACC1 in ovarian cancer has been rarely studied. The study was aimed to suppress MACC1 gene expression by siRNA and explore the relationship between MACC1 expression and chemosensitivity to cisplatin in ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3/DDP. Methods:Empty plasmid p-super-EGFP-1 (negative control group) and p-super-EGFP-MACC1 shRNA (experimental group) were transfected into ovarian cancer cell SKOV3/DDP respectively. SKOV3/DDP cells without transfection were used as blank group. Then, MACC1 mRNA and protein levels were measured by RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. Cell proliferation and IC50 of cisplatin was determined by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium test (MTT). Apoptosis rate was determined by lfow cytometer (FCM). ERK1/2 and p-ERK1/2 protein levels were determined by Western blot. Results:Compared with those in blank and negative control groups, MACC1 mRNA and protein levels deceased in experimental group. The IC50 of cisplatin in experimental group was lower than that in the other groups (26.094 vs 47.501/47.089μmol/L, P<0.05). There was a lower expression of p-ERK1/2 in experimental group (0.3979 vs 00.6712/0.6681, P<0.05). Apoptosis rate was significantly higher in the experimental group before and after treatment of cisplatin (1.32%vs 0.66%/0.48%, P<0.05;36.70%vs 18.53%/16.60%, P=0.000). Conclusion:MACC1 gene may be involved in cisplatin resistance phenomenon in SKOV3/DDP cells through ERK1/2 pathway.

Objective:
To investigate the association between gene polymorphism of vesicular monoamine transporter type 2(VMAT2) and schizophrenia in Han Chinese population.
Methods:
430 patients with schizophrenia and 470 age-sex matched controls were recruited from four mental health centers. All patients were diagnosed by two psychiatrists based on the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM Disorders (SCID). The ligase detection reactions (LDR) method was used to assess the polymorphism of the two SNPs (rs363371 and rs363324) of VMAT2.
Results:
No associations of two SNPs with schizophrenia was found. When we stratified males and females for the analysis, we found that that in the recessive model of rs363371, there was an obvious significant association between rs363371 and schizophrenia in males (OR=0.564, 95% CI=0.357–0.892, p=0.014) but not females. For the association between rs363324 and schizophrenia, no association was found in either males or females. No association was found when stratifying early-onset schizophrenia and late-onset schizophrenia.
Conclusion
Our findings indicate that both rs363371 and rs363324 were not associated with schizophrenia, while it seemed that the AA genotype of rs363371 plays a protective effect in male Chinese in developing schizophrenia.

Objective: To investigate the proteomic characteristics of overweight/obesity and related abnormal glucose and lipid metabolism caused by phlegm-dampness retention to identify related biomarkers. Methods: Seventy-one subjects were enrolled in the study. We assessed blood glucose, blood lipids, body mass index (BMI), and phlegm-dampness pattern, which was confirmed by a traditional Chinese med-icine clinician. Of the participants, we included healthy participants with normal weight (NW, n =23), overweight/obese participants with normal metabolism (ONM, n = 19), overweight/obese participants with pre-diabetes (OPD, n = 12), and overweight/obese participants with marginally-elevated blood lipids (OML, n = 17). Among them, the ONM, OPD, and OML groups were diagnosed with phlegm-dampness pattern. The data-independent acquisition (DIA) method was first used to analyze the plasma protein expression of each group, and the relevant differential proteins of each group were screened. The co-expressed proteins were evaluated by Venn analysis. The pathway analyses of the differential proteins were analyzed using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) software. Parallel reaction monitoring (PRM) was used to verify the differential and common proteins in each group. Results: After comparing ONM, OPD, and OML groups with NW group, we identified the differentially expressed proteins (DEPs). Next, we determined the DEPs among OPD, OML, and ONM groups. Using Venn analysis of the DEPs in each group, 24 co-expressed proteins were screened. Two co-expressed proteins were verified by PRM. IPA analysis showed that pathways including LXR/RXR activation, acute phase response signaling, and FXR/RXR activation were common to all three groups of phlegm-damp overweight/obesity participants. However, the activation or inhibition of these pathways was different among the three groups. Conclusion: Participants with overweight/obesity have similar proteomic characteristics, though each type shows specific proteomic characteristics. Two co-expressed proteins, VTN and ORM1, are potential biomarkers for glucose and lipid metabolism diseases with overweight/obesity caused by phlegm-dampness retention.
