Journal of International Oncology 2015;42(11):849-851
Axillary reverse mapping (ARM) is anatomic theoretical foundation based on breast and upper limb lymph axillary lymph injected into different lymphatic populations, ARM can display upper limb lymphatic channels through different tracers during the periods of axillary lymph node dissection and sentinel lymph node dissection, to reduce the rate of postoperative upper extremity edem.Although ARM has a positive effect, it exists a controversy in safety and the relationship between its node and sentinel lymph node.

3.Notch3 siRNA enhances chemosensitivity of colon cancer cells to topotecan
Chinese Journal of Cancer Biotherapy 2009;16(6):604-608
Objective: To elucidate the relationship between Notch3 expression and chemosensitivity of human colon carcinoma cell line SW620 to topotecan. Methods: Notch3 siRNA was transfected into SW620 cells, and the expression of Notch3 in SW620 cells was examined by Western blotting. After transfected with Notch3 siRNA for different time peri-ods, SW620 cells were further treated with topotecan, and the proliferation of SW620 cells was detected by MTT assay; the apoptosis of SW620 cells was detected by Hoechst 33342 staining and flow cytometry. Caspase-3 activation in SW620 cells was examined by caspase-3 activation kit. Results: Notch3 siRNA transfection remarkably inhibited Notch3 protein expression in SW620 cells. The IC_(50) of topotecan in Notch3 siRNA-transfected group was significantly decreased compared with that in the Ctrl siRNA group (P <0.05). Silence of Notch3 expression in SW620 cells by Notch3 siRNA remarkably promoted apoptosis (P < 0.05) and caspase-3 activation (P < 0.05) of SW620 cells induced by topotecan. Conclusion: Notch3 down-regulation by siRNA in SW620 cells can enhance the chemosensitivity cells to topotecan.

5.Adenovirus mediated transfer of TGF-?1 in treatment of mice autoimmune myocarditis
Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 2000;0(08):-
Objective:To study adenovirus mediated transfer of TGF ?1 in treatment of mice autoimmune myocarditis. Methods: Experimental autoimmune myocarditis was induced in BALB/c mice using purified myosin from porcine heart. TGF ?1 was transferred into mice by intravenous injection of adenovirus encoding TGF ?1. Plasma level of myosin autoantibody was detected by indirect ELISA method and plasma level of troponin I was assayed using fluorescence immune assay method. The protective effects of TGF ?1 were evaluated from 3 aspects: (1) the degree of infiltrative inflammatory cells in the heart; (2) the plasma level of myosin autoantibody; (3) the plasma level of troponin I. Results: TGF ?1 successfully ameliorated the myocarditis. Plasma level of troponin I and myosin autoantibody decreased significantly( P

7.Effects of Smad4 over-expression on proliferation of human gastric cancer cells and activation of NF-?B pathway
Chinese Journal of Cancer Biotherapy 1995;0(03):-
Objective:To construct pEGFP-C1-Smad4 expression vector and to observe the influence of Smad4 over-expression on the proliferation of human gastric cancer SGC7901 cells and its relationship with nuclear factor kappa B (NF-?B). Methods:Recombinant expression vector pEGFP-C1-Smad4 was constructed and was used to transfect human gastric cancer SGC7901 cells. EGFP expression in transfected cells was detected by fluoroscopy. Smad4 and NF-?B expression in transfectant was examined by Western blotting. Effect of Smad4 over-expression on activation of NF-?B and proliferation of transfected SGC7901 cells were examined by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) and MTT assay,respectively. Results:Expression of EGFP in transfected SGC7901 cells was observed under fluorescence microscope. Smad4 was over-expressed in transfected SGC7901 cells,accompanied by down-regulation of NF-?B p65 expression in the tranfectants. EMSA and MTT demonstrated that Smad4 over-expression significantly inhibited the activation of NF-?B and the proliferation of SGC7901 cells (P
8.Over-expression of NOTCH-1 inhibits TNF?-induced apoptosis and proliferation suppression in human gastric carcinoma cells
Basic & Clinical Medicine 2006;0(07):-
Objective To explore the regulatory function of over-expression of NOTCH-1 in TNF?-induced apoptosis of gastric carcinoma carcinoma BGC-823 cells.Methods BGC-823 cells were infected with retrovirus recombined with intracellular domain of NOTCH-1.The cell clones,into which objective genes had been transfected,were obtained after screening with G-418.Before and after incubation with TNF?,MTT assay,flow cytometry,Western blot and EMSA were used to detect cell growth,apoptosis,expressions of NOTCH-1,NF-?B and caspase-3 activity.Results There was stronger expression of NOTCH-1 and its target gene HES-1 in the cells transfected with NOTCH-1 gene than that of control.After TNF? treatment,the rates of killing and apoptosis in NOTCH-1-transfected cells were all lower than those in control cells.Moreover,we showed over-expression of NOTCH-1 suppressed caspase-3 activation induced by TNF?.However,TNF?-induced activation of NF-?B was not affected by over-expression of NOTCH-1.Conclusion Over-expression of NOTCH-1 significantly protects BGC-823 cells from apoptosis and growth suppression induced by TNF?.This effect is mediated,at least in part,through inhibition of caspase-3 activation independent of NF-?B.

10.Optimized medium accelerates differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2014;(45):7246-7249
BACKGROUND:Studies have found that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s, under certain conditions, can be induced to differentiate into neurons and glial cel s, which to some extent solves the problem of the source of seed cel s. Induction methods currently used are different, and their efficiencies are not the same.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the effects of different antioxidants on differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s into neuron-like cel s in vitro.
METHODS:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s from Wistar rats were divided into four groups:non-intervention group,β-mercaptoethanol group, retinoic acid group,β-mercaptoethanol+retinoic acid group. Changes in cel morphology and positive rate of neuron-specific enolase and microtubule-associated protein 2 were observed and detected at 5 hours, 12 hours, 1 day, 3 days, 5 days, 7 days, and 10 days after induction.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Except non-intervention group, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s in the other three groups were gradual y becoming spindle-shaped, and gave birth to many smal protrusions that were interconnected into a network, showing neuron-like cel morphology. Immunocytochemical staining showed that the efficiency of theβ-mercaptoethanol+retinoic acid group was the highest at 10 days after induction, and the positive rates of neuron-specific enolase and microtubule-associated protein 2 were 71.63%and 79.72%, respectively. The results show thatβ-mercaptoethanol can be combined with retinoic acid to accelerate the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s into neuron-like cel s.
