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 investigate the influence of pre-chemotherapy hemoglobin and platelet levels on the effect of chemotherapy and prognostic outcome in patients with endometrial carcinoma (EC).Methods 104 patients with EC who underwent surgical treatment following neoadjuvant chemotherapy were retrospectively analyzed.Multiple logistic regression was carried out to evaluate the relationship between the probability of achieving an optimal clinical response and the variables.The log-rank test was used to compare the homogeneity of progression-free survival and overall survival functions across strata defined by categories of prognostic variables.Results The Cox proportional hazard model was used to assess the significance of potential prognostic factors for progression-free survival and overall survival.Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that FIGO staging (OR =3.234,95 % CI:1.324-13.454) and lymph node metastasis (OR =8.235,95 % CI:1.563-18.574) were independent factors of influencing effects of new adjuvant chemotherapy in the treatment of EC patients.Multivariate Cox regression model analysis showed that the FIGO staging(HR =4.342,95% CI:1.643-15.856) and lymph node metastasis (HR =3.853,95% CI:1.864-9.675) were independent factors of influencing 5 years survival rate of EC patients received new adjuvant chemotherapy.Conclusion The curative effect and prognosis after receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy operation in treatment of EC patients before chemotherapy,there was no significant correlation between hemoglobin and platelet levels,and lymph node metastasis,FIGO stage.

Purpose To explore the role of tumor necrosis factor-α( TNF-α) in the process of temozolomide ( TMZ) reduce glioma in-vasiveness and its possible mechanism. Methods C6 glioma cells of logarithmic phase were randomly divided into TMZ treatment (10, 30, 60, 120, 180, 240 min group) (n=15), dynamic monitoring content of TNF-αin the culture medium was measured by ra-dioimmunoassay, expression of p53 protein in C6 cells was detected with Western blotting method, and cell apoptosis was used with AnnexinV-FITC. A glioma invasiveness model was established in vitro and glioma invasiveness was determined by crystal violet stai-ning. Results For C6 cells, contents of TNF-αin the nutrient fluid and expressions of p53 protein in C6 cells obviously increased af-ter TMZ treatment and they achieved the peak at 120 min (P<0. 01), followed by decrease gradually. Glioma invasiveness was re-duced after TMZ acted on glioma in vitro. Conclusion TMZ can reduce glioma invasiveness by TNF-α, which this role may be is TMZ promote C6 cells release of TNF-α and increased TNF-α due to glioma cells apoptosis.
