AIM To explore the effect of breviscapine on primary cultural calf pulmonary artery smooth muscle cell (PASMC) proliferation. METHODS By primary cuture of calf PASMC, the effect of PASMC proliferation was analysed using MTT colorimetry, flow cytomerty, Giemsa staining. RESULTS Compared with control group, PASMC proliferations in breviscapine group was significantly inhibited from G 0/G 1 to S phases in the cell cycle. CONCLUSION Breviscapine could significantly inhibit PASMC profiferation. The mechanism for this may due to inhibition of protein kinase C.

Objective To study the relationship between the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP)of X-ray repair cross-complementing group-3(XRCC3),human 8-hydroxyguanine glycosylase-1 (HOGG1)gene of repair DNA and the radiosensitivity in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC).Methotis Genome DNA was exracted from whole blood cells of ESCC patients.XRCC3 and HOGG1 genotypes were determined by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method.The relationship was analyzed between SNP of XRCC3 Thr242 Met,HOGG1 Ser326 Cys and the response to radiotherapy in ESCC.Results Totally 199 ESCC patients were treated with radical radiotherapy.The response rate w88 81.4%.The response rate in patients with the XRCC3 Thr/Met genotype was significant higher than that in patients with Thr/Thr genotype(91.5%vs 77.1%,X2=5.67,P=0.017),with the same in HOGGlSet/Ser,Ser/Cys and Cys/Cys genotype(74.1%,84.2%,83.9%,X2=2.64,P=0.268).The esophageal radioactivity injury rate in patients with the XRCC3 Thr/Met genotype was also significant higher than that in patients with Thr/Thr genotype(35.6%vs 20.0%,X2=5.44,P= 0.020),with the same in HOGG1 Ser/Ser,Ser/Cys and Cys/Cys genotype(24.1%,24.6%,25.8%,X2=0.03,P=0.984).In Iogistic multivariate analysis,the SNP of XRCC3 was the independent influencing factor closely correlating with the mdiosensitivity of esophageal cancer(X2=16.12,4.43,P=0.009.0.035).No significant difierence was observed between the SNP in HOGG1 Ser326 Cys and the response rate of radiotherapy or the rate of esophageal radioactivity injury(X2=3.74,0.58,P=0.053,0.445).Conclusions SNP of XRCC3 Thr/Met is associated with the radiosensitivity in ESCC patients,which suggests that the XRCC3 Thr/Met SNP may be a predictor for ESCC patients who likely to response to radiotherapy.

Objective To study the diagnostic value of Sox2 mRNA transcription level in bronchoscopic biopsy specimens from lung cancer patients. Methods The expression of Sox2 mRNA was detected using RT-PCR from 100 hu-man lung cancer biopsy and 18 non-cancer lung biopsy through bronchoscopy. The expression of Sox2 protein was examined by immunohistochemistry from 50 cases of lung cancer biopsy, 32 cases of benign lung lesions and 18 cases of pericarcino-matous normal lung tissues. Then the relationships between Sox2 mRNA transcription level and lung cancer clinical patho-logical parameters were analyzed to test the diagnostic value of Sox2 transcription level. Results The transcription of Sox2 mRNA and its protein expression level were significantly higher in lung cancer than that in benign pulmonary disease tissues (P<0.05). The transcription of Sox2 mRNA was not correlated with age, gender, histology, lymph node metastasis, TNM stage and differentiation of lung cancer patients (P>0.05). The Sox2 mRNA yielded an area of 0.748 under the ROC curve with the sensitivity of 85.0%and the specificity of 61.1%, taking the cut-off value of 0.513. Conclusion The Sox2 mRNA might be a useful diagnostic marker for lung cancer.

AIM: To investigate the therapeutic effect of chloride channel blocker tamoxifen on hypoxia pulmonary hypertension in rats.METHODS: Sixty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into therapeutic group(H/Q group),hypoxia group(H group),normal control group(C group).Mean pulmonary artery pressure(mPAP),the ratio of the weight of right ventricle to that of left ventricle plus septum[RV(LV+S)],and the ratio of the pulmonary arteriole wall area to that of vascular total area(WA/TA),were measured at 4,7,14,21 days.RESULTS:The mPAP began to increase from 7 days,and reached peak at 21 days in hypoxia group,however it is obviously lower in therapeutic group at same time.The ratio of RV(LV+S) began to increase from 14 days,and reached peak at 21 days in hypoxia group,however it is obviously lower in therapeutic group at same time.The ratio of WA/TA at 21 days in hypoxia group was significantly higher than therapeutic group,respectively(P

Objective To investigate whether methamphetamine (METH) can enhance human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) infection in macrophages and the possible mechanism.Methods Peripheral blood samples were collected from eight healthy adult donors.Monocytes were isolated from blood samples and then cultured in vitro to induce differentiation to macrophages.These macrophages were treated with METH and/or dopamine receptor D1 (DRD1) antagonist,and then infected with HIV Bal strains.The levels of HIV RNA were measured in HIV Bal-infected macrophages by RT-PCR analysis.The real-time RTPCR was performed for the quantification of cellular DRD1.Results METH promoted HIV replication in macrophages in a dose and time dependent manner.This METH-mediated enhancement of HIV infection and replication in macrophages could be blocked by the DRD1 antagonist (SCH23390).Moreover,METH could induce the expression of DRD1.Conclusion METH might play a co-factor role in HIV infection in human macrophages by up-regulating the expression of DRD1.
