Objective:The study aims to screen chemosensitivity-associated proteins in colorectal carcinoma tissues by using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and mass spectrometry,then identify some differentially-expressed proteins. Methods:The patients with advanced colorectal carcinoma were confirmed by clinical diagnosis. Fresh carcinoma specimens were collected by biopsy and preserved in liquid N2. The tissues were classified into two groups: high sensitivity group (HS) and low sensitivity group (LS) based on drug sensitivity test. The total proteins were extracted and separated by 2-DE. The images were composed, compared, and differentially analyzed to identify the proteins with differential expression in HS and LS groups. Then the differentially-expressed protein spots were incised from the gels and digested by trypsin. The peptide mass fingerprintings (PMF) was acquired after matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) and the proteins were identified by data searching in the Mascot database. Two proteins with differential expression were detected by Western blotting.Results:The 2-DE spectrum of HS and LS groups were established. Most protein spots were distributed in the area with pH 4-8 and relative molecular weight of (20-100)×10~3. The average number of the protein spots was 842±23 in HS group and 793±19 in LS group,respectively. The mean matching rate was 90.7%. The number of differentially-expressed dots between HS and LS group was 79.00±13.56. Thirty protein dots were selected for mass spectrum and bioinformatic analysis, and 9 proteins were identified. Conclusion:Colorectal carcinoma with different chemosensitivity had differential protein expression profiles. The differentially expressed proteins may be associated with chemosensitivity and could be used for prediction of chemosensitivity of colorectal carcinoma.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of superparamagnetic chitosan FGF-2 gelatin microspheres (SPCFGM) on the proliferation and differentiation of mouse mesenchymal stem cells. The superparamagnetic iron oxide chitosan nanoparticles (SPIOCNs) were synthesized by means of chemical co-precipitation, combined with FGF-2. Then The SPCFGM and superparamagnetic chitosan gelatin microspheres (SPCGM) were prepared by means of crosslinking-emulsion. The properties of SPCFGM and SPIONs were measured by laser diffraction particle size analyser and transmisson electron microscopy. The SPCFGM were measured for drug loading capacity, encapsulation efficiency and release pharmaceutical properties in vitro. The C3H10 cells were grouped according to the different ingredients being added to the culture medium: SPCFGM group, SPCGM group and DMEM as control group. Cell apoptosis was analyzed by DAPI staining. The protein expression level of FGF-2 was determined by Western blot. The proliferation activity and cell cycle phase of C3H10 were examined by CCK8 and flow cytometry. The results demonstrated that both of the SPIOCNs and SPCFGM were exhibited structure of spherical crystallization with a diameter of (25 ± 9) nm and (140 ± 12) μm, respectively. There were no apoptosis cells in the three group cells. Both the protein expression level of FGF-2 and cell proliferation activity increased significantly in the SPCFGM group cells (P < 0.05). The SPCFGM is successfully constructed and it can controlled-release FGF-2, remained the biological activity of FGF-2, which can promote proliferation activity of C3H10 cells, and are non-toxic to the cell.

Objective To screen serum proteomic marker of hepatic echinococcosis, establish a diagnotic model of serum protein fingerprint patterns, and evaluate its clinical application for hepatic echinococcosis. Methods Serum samples from 68 patients with hepatic echinococcosis matched with 73 controls composed of 33 patients with liver diseases other than hepatic echinococcosis and 40 healthy people were collected. All subjects were divided into training group (37) and testing group (67). Serum protein profiling of patients with hepatic echinococcosis and controls were detected using surface enhanced laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry(SELDI-TOF-MS) and weak cation exchange protein chip(WCX2). Peak intensities were compared, in the training group, between 37 patients with hepatic echinococcosis and 37 controls, 5 patients with HCE and 5 patients with HAE, and 8 patients with hepatic echinococcosis before and after operation, respectively. ZJU-Protein Chip Data Analyze System(ZJU-PDAS) was used for data analysis and the model of serum protein fingerprint patterns was build by support vector machine (SVM). The sensitivity and specificity of the model for diagnosis of hepatic echinococcosis were verified by blind method on samples of testing group. Results There were nine different protein peak spectra between hepatic echinococcosis group and control group, of which eight protein peak spectra decreased in patient group, their relative molecular mass were 1044, 1047, 1073, 1075, 1338, 6453, 6649, 8714 m/z, respectively, while one protein peak spectrum(5651 m/z) increased(P < 0.05). The sensitivity,specificity, positive predictive and negative predictive value of the model validated by blind method were 77.4% (24/31), 66.7% (24/36), respectively. There were two different protein peak spectra between HCE group and HAE group, Their relative molecule mass were 8716 and 2751 m/z, respectively (P < 0.05). Six different proteins were detected from pre-operation group and post-operation group. Their relative molecular mass were 1297, 1505, 1525, 1534, 5921, 5941 m/z, respectively(P < 0.05). Conclusions It is a successful way to screen serum proteomic marker in patients with hepatic echinococcosis by SELDI-TOF-MS and Bio-informatics, and the marker has a potential clinical value in diagnosis and judging prognosis of hepatic echinococcosis.

Objective:To investigate the effects of oxymatrine(OM)on the apoptosis of human hepatoma HepG2 cells and its possible mechanisms.Methods:HepG2 cells were treated with different concentrations of OM.The proliferation inhibition was measured by MTT assay and the apoptosis of HepG2 cells were examined by Hochest staining method.Flow cytometry was used to analyze the cell cycle distribution and apoptosis rate.The expression of caspase-3,Bcl-2,Bcl-x_L and Bax proteins was assayed by Western blotting assay.Results:OM inhibited HepG2 cells growth in a time-and dose-dependent manner.After treatment with OM for 24 hours,some cells appeared typical apoptotic characteristics and the apoptosis rate was increased. Treatment with OM also increased caspase-3 activity and Bax expression in HepG2 cells,and decreased the expression levels of Bcl-2 and Bcl-x_L.Conclusion:OM can induce HepG2 cell apoptosis,which may be related to the down-regulation of PI3K/Akt signal pathway,suppression of Bcl-2 and Bcl-x_L activity,and activation of caspase-3.

OBJECTIVETo detect the expression profiles of suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3), interleukin (IL)-10, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a) in the placenta of women with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) and determine the clinical significance of the differential expressions.

METHODSPlacentas were collected from 37 ICP gravidas who delivered through cesarean section at the First Teaching Hospital of Xingjiang Medical University from October 2010 to May 2011 and from 35 healthy pregnant women (controls). SOCS3, TNF-a, and IL-10 protein levels were detected by immunoblotting and the Envision immunohistochemical method.

RESULTSTNF-a and IL-10 expression was detected in placentas of both groups, and was present mainly in the cytoplasm of trophoeytes. IL-10 expression was obviously lower in the ICP placentas than in the control placentas; meanwhile, TNF-a expression was obviously higher than in the control placentas (Z=-2.63, P less than 0.01). SOCS3 protein was significantly more abundant in the control placentas than in the ICP placentas. Furthermore, SOCS3 and IL-10 placental expressions were positively correlated (r=0.494, P less than 0.01), but there was a negative correlation between SOCS3 and TNF-a placental expressions (r=-0.472, P less than 0.01).

CONCLUSIONIn ICP, an increase of the type 1 cytokine, TNF-a, is associated with decreases of the type 2 cytokine, IL-10, and of SOCS3, which may reduce the secretion of IL-10. Furthermore, SOCS3 may contribute to ICP pathogenesis by modulating the Th1/Th2 cytokine balance.
