Cancer Research and Clinic 2010;22(4):219-221
Objective To investigate the expression of CD40 protein in bladder urothelium cancer and to explore its correlation with clinical stage, pathological grades, cell apoptosis. Methods Expression of CD4o protein was evaluated by immunohistochemistry in paracancerous tissues (20 cases) and bladder urothelium cancer tissues (78 cases). Apoptosis of bladder urothelium cancer tissues was detected by Hoechst to determine the apoptotic rate (AR). Results The expression rate of CD40 protein was 2/20(10 %) in the cases of paracancerous tissues, 55/78(70.5%) in the cases of bladder urothelium cancer tissues, a statistically significant differences of CD40 staining was observed between paracancerous tissues and bladder urothelium cancer tissues (P <0.01). Overexpression of CD40 was strongly inversely related to the tumor grade and clinical stage; the positive group of CD40 protein was (12.60±0.38)%, the negative group of CD40 protein was (6.77±0.53)%, a statistically significant differences of apoptosis were observed between CD40 protein positive group and CD40 protein negative group (P <0.01). It showed CD40 protein might induce cell apoptosis. Conclusion Expression of CD40 protein is closely related with clinical stage, pathological grade and cell apoptotic rate and may offer reliable evidence for diagnosis, treatment and prognosis in bladder urothelium cancer.
2.Gene polymorphism of fibrinogen: Is it an independent ris factor of ischemic stroke
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2006;10(30):190-192
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphism of gene and ischemic stroke and search for predisposing genes of ischemic stroke.DATA SOURCES: The Medline database was searched for articles of gene polymorphism of fibrinogen and ischemic stroke published from 1980 to 2005 with the key words of "stroke, plasma fibrinogen, polymorphism"in English. Meanwhile, Vip Information Database was also searched for literatures of gene polymorphism of fibrinogen and schemic stroke published between 1995 and 2005 with the key terms of "ischemic stroke, fibrinogen,gene polymorphism" in Chinese. Full-texts were gotten by correspondence with the authors.STUDY SELECTION: Included literatures were only case control study literatures. Literatures of contrast study, experience summary, individual case and so on were excluded.DATA EXTRACTION: Totally 50 articles of gene polymorphism of fibrinogen and ischemic stroke were retrieved. Twenty articles were accorded with inclusive criteria, and thirty articles were excluded.DATA SYNTHESIS: Level of plasma fibrinogen was co-affected by heredity and environment. Gene polymorphism of fibrinogen has important regulatory effects on the level of plasma fibrinogen. The fibrinogen accelerates thrombotic formation. As a result, the incidence rate of ischemic stroke increased by participating atherosclerosis, helping thrombocytic aggregation and changing the status of hemorheology. But definite mechanism and molecular function of gene polymorphism of fibrinogen deserved further research.CONCLUSION: The relationship between single nucleotide polymorphism of fibrinogen and ischemic stroke remains obscure. It also needs further study.

4.Chemotherapy and tumor immunogenic cell death
Journal of International Oncology 2017;44(5):369-372
Chemotherapy resist is the problem for clinic,and some researches find that chemotherapy with anthracycline and oxaliplatin not only induces the tumor cell apoptosis,but also the celt immunogenic cell death (ICD) by inducing the tumor cell apoptosis and releasing three kinds of signals:exposure of calreticulin on the cell surface to stimulate the dendritic cell (DC) to engulf,and the secretion of adenosine triphosphate to recruit DC to enter into tumor bed,and the release of the high mobility group B1 to promote DC to steadily bind with dying tumor cell to induce specific T cell antitumor immune response.It is with great meaning to promote the chemotherapy protocol by studying the ICD induced by chemotherapy.

AIM: To clarify the role of nitric oxide(NO) in ischemic preconditioning(IP) and its effects on apoptosis. METHODS: Seventy-two male Wistar rats were divided into the following six groups:ischemia/reperfusion (IR) group,IP group,IR+L-arg group,IP+L-arg group,IR+L-NAME group and IP+L-NAME group,The following changes were measured:cardiac hemodynamic parameters,infarct size,PMNs counting myocardial MPO activity and TUNEL staining.RESULTS: ①L-arg significantly attenuated ischemia/reperfusion-induced heart injury,reduced PMNs infiltration and cardiomyocyte apoptosis.②L-NAME also significantly reduced infarct size,PMNs infiltration and cardiomyocyte apoptosis compared with IR group,however,L-NAME aggravated ischemia/reperfusions-induced cardiac functional injury.③L-arg or L-NAME did not significantly alter the protective effect of ischemic preconditioning. CONCLUSION: Increased production of endogenous NO before prolonged ischemic period can protect hearts and inhibit apoptosis.L-NAME can inhibit iNOS activity and ONOO- production in reperfusion period to protect heart.
