Objective To study the effect of rising [Ca 2+ ]i on the expression of Caspase 3, Bax and Bcl 2 in human breast cancer MCF 7 cell lines. Methods After the MCF 7 cells treated with different dose of thapsigargin(TG), intracellular calcium concentrations in MCF 7 cells were measured by calcium sensitive fluorescence indicator Fura 2/AM technique; and immunohistochemical method was used to detected the expressions of Caspase 3, Bax and Bcl 2. Results Bax was over expressed and Bcl 2 was down expressed in a [Ca 2+ ]i concentration dependent way;nevertheless, the expression of Caspase 3 was negative in all the TG treated cells. Conclusions The increase of intracellular calcium concentration may have an inductive effect of apoptosis on MCF 7 cells, which is independent to Caspase 3.

Objective To study the apoptotic induction effect of Thapsigargin on estrogen receptor positive human breast cancer cell lines MCF 7. Methods Cells were treated with Thapsigargin and 5 FU in vitro . The rate of cell apoptosis and distribution of cell cycle were detected on flow cytometry. The cell viability was measured by MTT assay and ultrastructural changes in apoptotic cells were confirmed by transmission electron microscopy.Results Thapsigargin could increase the rates both of cell apoptosis and growth supression of MCF 7 cells induced by 5 FU and alter the distribution of cell cycle. Under electron microscope, apoptotic bodies in MCF 7 cells considerably increased.Conclusion Thapsigargin apparently enhances the effect of apoptotic induction of 5 FU on MCF 7 cells, it is worthy of being further studied.

Objective To investigate the optimal window width and window level for measuring the airway dimensions with spiral CT scan in Japanese white big-ear rabbits so as to lay the foundation for airway stenting in animal experiments. Methods Multi-slice spiral CT scanning of cervico-thoracic region was performed in 30 healthy adult Japanese white big-ear rabbits, the anteroposterior and transversal diameter of the thoracic trachea, the anteroposterior diameter of the right and left bronchus were measured with lung window, mediastinum window and special fat window separately. The revealing rate of the tracheal wall and the measuring results in different windows and levels were recorded and compared with the anatomical data. The differences of the relevant data were statistically analyzed. Results With lung window, the tracheal wall was well demonstrated, but the relevant data were smaller than that with mediastinum window. With mediastinum window, the data were bigger and the tracheal wall border appeared blurred. The results obtained with fat window were close to the actual anatomical data. Conclusion For accurately measuring the anteroposterior and transversal diameter of the thoracic trachea in Japanese white big-ear rabbits with multi-slice spiral CT scan, fat window should be adopted, which is helpful for the preparation of tracheal and bronchial stents.

A microwave digestion system was preparation for the digestion of the sediment samples of 16 stations in the Southe mid_Atlantic ridge by using HNO3_H2 O2_HF as the digestion reagent. The rare earth elements ( RE ) in sediments were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, and distribution characteristics of rare earth elements were studied. The microwave digestion_ICP_MS method was used for the determination of rare earth elements with a good linear relationship ( r=0 . 9997-1 . 0000 ) for each element. The detection limit reached ng/L level, the relative standard deviation ( RSD, n=3 ) was less than 3% and the relative error was 6%. The total amount of rare earth elements (ΣRE) in sediment samples from 16 stations varied in the range of 37. 25-134. 77 μg/g, the ratio range of light RE/heavy RE ( LRE/HRE) was 0 . 61-1 . 70 , the average value was 1 . 27 , and the enrichment of light rare earth elements in sediments was slightly obvious. The RE distribution patterns were basically the same in each station with obvious fractionation between LRE and HRE. The RE distribution patterns were also similar in sediments from different sources with slightly difference between terrestrial and marine sediments. The δEu and δCe in the sediments had negative anomaly which showed that the rare earth elements in sediments came from the seawater. This study first analyzed the content and distribution of rare earth elements in the southern Atlantic, providing data and technical support for further study of the distribution of rare earth elements in the Atlantic.

Objective To observe the changes of learning function and neuron-specific enolase (NSE)protein of both brian and serum in rats after intermittent hypoxia,and explore the relation between NSE protein and learning and memory function.Methods Male Wistar adult rats(n=48)were randomly divided into control group (UC group) and 7.5％ chronic intermittent hypoxia group (7.5％CIH group).7.5％ chronic intermittent hypoxia model in rats were simalated by using the self-made cabin of intermittent hypoxia.At the 2nd,4th,6th,and 8th week respectively,learning and memory function in rat was tested by Morris water maze in two groups.The level of NSE protein in hippocampal CA1 region was detected by immunohistochemical method,and was detected in serum of rats by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent adsorption method.Results Compared with the control group,7.5％ CIH group at the 2nd,4th,6th,and 8th week in rats from the second week of the escape latency time was 44.13± 2.84) s,(50.35 ± 1.96) s,(57.47 ± 1.66) s,(62.85 ± 1.80) s,and across the target quadrant time was 48.81 ± 2.09) s,(42.04± 1.84) s,(36.82± 2.07) s,(31.81 ± 1.68) s.From the first two weeks,the longer the hypoxia time prolonged,the longer the rat's escapedlatency (P＜0.05) and the shorter the rats acrossed the target quadrant (P ＜0.05).7.5％ CIH group of hippocampal CA1 neurons NSE protein at the 2nd,4th,6th,and 8th week was (9.69±1.37),17.10± 1.87),(24.79± 3.51),(34.16±5.35),respectively,and serum NSE protein at the 2nd,4th,6th,and 8th week respectively was (6.03±0.91) μg/L,(11.04± 1.89) μg/L,(16.39± 1.00) μg/L,(24.22±3.73) μg/L,both of which were more than the control group.The difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).7.5％ CIH group of hippocampal CA1 neurons and serum NSE protein expression were significant time differences,and gradually increased over time.The difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).Positive NSE protein expression in hippocampal CA1 region relative NSE and serum protein expression values were positively correlated (r=0.94,P ＜0.01).But in control group NSE protein expression did not exist time difference (P＞0.05).Conclusion Intermittent hypoxia can cause NSE levels significant increase in serum and brain tissue,and the dynamic changes of them can reflect severity of learning and memory impairement in rat.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between cardiomyopathy-associated 5 (CMYAS) gene rs10043986 polymorphism and schizophrenia in Uygur Chinese population.Methods The SNP rs10043986 in CMYA5 gene was genotyped in 325 patients with schizophrenia and 183 normal controls using TaqMan technology.The symptoms of schizophrenia were assessed by positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS).The association of the loci with schizophrenia,age of onset,clinical symptom was analyzed.Results The allelic and genotypic distributions in rs10043986 between patients with schizophrenia (C,T allele:91.5％,8.5％ ; C/C,C/T,T/T genotypes:83.4％,16.3％,0.3％) and normal controls (C,T allele:96.4％,3.6％ ; C/C,C/T,T/T genotypes:92.9％,7.1％,0) had statistically significance after analysis (x2 =9.038,P=0.003 ; x2 =9.417,P=0.009).Via analysis of stratification by gender and age at onset.The results showed that both allele (x2=11.812,P=0.001) and genotype (x2=12.769,P=0.001) frequency in rs10043986 with patients were significantly different in females,but neither in males (all P＞0.05).Allelic or genotypic distributions between adult cases and controls had statistically significance (x2=8.219,P=0.004; x2=8.379,P=0.015),but there were not significant differences between adolescent cases and controls (all P＞ 0.05).Furthermore,we also notice that the PANSS scores of patients between Genotype C/C and C/T had no statistically significance (allP＞0.05).Conclusion The results reveal that T allele at CMYA5 rs10043986 may be confer risk for susceptibility of female and adult schizophrenia in Uygur Chinese population,and that rs 10043986 polymorphism may not significantly associate with symptoms severity of schizophrenia.
