Objective To investigate the expression of C-C chemokine ligand 5(CCL5) in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma(HNSCC),and explore the effect of CCL5 on the biological characteristics of laryngeal carcinoma cells.Methods Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis(GEPIA) database was used to investigate the expression of CCL5 in HNSCC.The laryngeal carcinoma cells TU177 were transfected with siRNA(siRNA group),and the control(NC) group was set up.The cell proliferation,migration,cycle and apoptosis of each group were detected by CCK8 assay,cell scratch test and flow cytometry respectively.RT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the knock-down efficiency of CCL5 and the mRNA transcription and protein expression of multidrug resistance protein 2(MRP2) and bcl-2-associated x protein(Bax).Results The expression of CCL5 in HNSCC was higher than that in normal tissues(P <0.05).Compared with NC group,siRNA showed higher knock-down efficiency(t=12.898 and 22.656 respectively,each P <0.01);siRNA interference with CCL5 inhibited the proliferation and migration of laryngeal carcinoma cells,and promoted the late apoptosis of laryngeal carcinoma cells and the expression of apoptosis protein Bax(t=2.600～11.667,each P <0.05).Conclusion CCL5 was highly expressed in HNSCC,while siRNA interference with CCL5 inhibited the proliferation,migration and promoted apoptosis of laryngeal carcinoma cells TU177 by up-regulating the expression of Bax,which laid a foundation of the possibility of CCL5 as a new target for the treatment of laryngeal carcinoma.

Objective To determine the association between serum potassium level and the severity of coronary artery atherosclerosis. Methods A total of 246 patients underwent coronary artery angiography were included into this study, and were divided into four groups according to the involved main coronary artery:control group (0 diseased vessel, n=81), one dis?eased vessel group (n=43), double diseased vessel group (n=46) and three diseased vessel group (n=76). Patients were also di?vided into low potassium group (K+<4.0 mmol/L, n=99) and high potassium group (K+≥4.0 mmol/L, n=147) according to the levels of serum potassium. The severity of coronary stenosis was quantitated by Gensini score system. The clinical data were compared between groups. The relationship between Gensini score system and clinical information was analyzed. The multi?ple regression method was used to analyse the risk factors of coronary heart disease (CHD). Results (1) There were higher percentages of elders, male, smoking, diabetes mellitus and hypertension patients in three diseased vessel group than those of control group. The serum potassium level was significantly lower in three diseased vessel group (3.97 mmol/L±0.37 mmol/L) than that of control group (4.11 mmol/L±0.33 mmol/L) and one diseased vessel group (4.13 mmol/L±0.41 mmol/L). There were higher percentages of elders, male and hypertension patients in double diseased vessel group than those of control group. The percentages of male and hypertension patients were higher in one diseased vessel group than those of control group. The Gensini scores were three diseased vessel group>double diseased vessel group>one diseased vessel group>control group (P<0.05). (2) There was a significantly higher Gensini score in low potassium group [36(8, 94)] than that of high potassium group [16(0,56)]. (3) There was significant negative correlation between serum potassium level and Gensini score (r=-0.206, P=0.001). (4) It was found that age, male, the low level of serum potassium, diabetes mellitus and hyperten?sion were independent risk factors of CHD. Conclusion The serum potassium level is negatively correlated with the severi?ty of CHD. The low level of serum potassium is an independent risk factor of CHD.

Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC)is a chronic disease characterized by progressive destruction of intrahepatic small bile ducts, which may progress to liver cirrhosis.Anti-mitochondrial antibodies,especially anti-M2 antibody,have a high diagnostic value for PBC, but they are unrelated to the severity and prognosis of the disease and are negative in some patients.There have been reports from around the world that anti-nuclear antibodies,especially anti-gp210 antibody,are closely associated with PBC.It showed that anti-gp210 antibody has high specificity and sensitivity for the diagnosis of PBC,especially for the patients with negative anti-M2 antibody tests;in addition,it has a high predictive value for the prognosis and development model of the disease.Anti -gp210 antibody has a high diagnostic value for PBC,with great clinical significance,so its detection holds promise for clinical application.
