Aim To study the effect of IL-1β on pro-tein expression of vascular endothelial growth factor in glioma cells and plasma membrane microcapsule struc-ture protein caveolin-1 and plasma membrane vesicles in brain microvascular endothelial cells, and prelimi-narity discuss the possible mechanism of IL-1β opening blood tumor barrier. Methods The tumor barrier mod-el was established by transwell in vitro. The effect of IL-1β on the expression of VEGF in glioma cells and caveolin-1 in brain microvascular endothelial cells was dynamically monitored by Western blot. TEM was used to observe the number of plasma membrane vesicles of brain microvascular endothelial cells. Sodium fluores-cein leakage test was used to assess the permeability of blood tumor barrier after IL-1β. Results The tumor barrier model was successfully established by transwell in vitro. When IL-1β treated the model of blood tumor barrier,the expression of VEGF increased,and reached the peak at 60min,and recovered to the initial state at 120min. The permeability of the blood tumor barrier model was the highest at 60min. In addition,our re-sults also found that,the protein expression of plasma membrane microcapsule structure protein caveolin-1 and number of plasma membrane vesicles in brain mi-crocapsule endothelial cells reached peak at 60 min, subsequently reduced and returned to non drug state at 120min. Conclusion IL-1β increases blood tumor barrier permeability,which may be related to IL-1β in-creasing the number of plasma membrane vesicles through VEGF/ caveolin-1 pathway.

Objective To evaluate the influence of the alendronate treatment in early-stage adult nontraumatic avascular necrosis of femoral head. Methods The 83 patients with nontraumatic avascular necrosis of femoral head were enrolled in this study. They were given oral alendronate 70 mg weekly, and evaluated with Harris criteria before and after treatment. Results In the patients with ARCO Ⅰ necrosis, the scores of pain and function were higher after treatment than before [(41.45±3.55) scores vs. (38. 48± 5.55) scores, t = 3. 70, P = 0. 001; (45.06 ± 1.50) scores vs. (43.97 ±2.31) scores, t= 3.76, P= 0. 001]. In the patients with ARCO Ⅱ necrosis, the scores of pain,function and activity were also higher after treatment than before [(40. 40±4.31 ) scores vs. (37.32±6. 65) scores, t=4.06, P=0.00; (42.90±2.70) scores vs. (41.66±3.35) scores, t=3.15, P=0.003; (4.76±0.47) scores vs. (4.42±0.70) scores, t=3.35, P=0.002]. Conclusions Alendronate is effective in treatment of early-stage adult nontraumatic avascular necrosis of femoral head, in particular for ARCO Ⅱ patients. But its long-term effect is worth researching in future.

Objective To explore the effect of transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) on epithelial-mesenchymal transition in rat peritoneal mesothelial cells(RPMCs) and its mechanism.Methods Primary peritoneal mesothelial cells of SP rats were cultured in vitro. After synchronization for 24 h, RPMCs were randomly divided into 2 groups: Group A (control), Group B (TGF-β1, 10 μg/L). RPMCs were stimulated by 10 μg/L TGF-β1 for different time. The mRNA and protein expression levels of E-cadherin, α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and collagenⅠwere measured by RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. The protein expression level of total RhoA was measured by Western blot. Active RhoA was extracted by Plasma Membrane Protein Extraction Kit, and assessed by Western blot. Results TGF-β1 down-regulated mRNA and protein expression of E-cadherin in RPMCs, and upregulated mRNA and protein expression of α-SMA and CollagenⅠ. TGF-β1 stimulation elicited a robust increase in RhoA activity in a time-dependent manner. RhoA activity peaked at 1 h.Conclusion RPMCs can be transdifferentiated into myofibroblast under the effect of TGF-(β1,)and the mechanism may be related to the activation of RhoA associated signal pathway.
