1.Study on unscheduled DNA synthesis of Alternaria alternata 261-B2-3 in human amnionic cells in vitro
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 1986;0(04):-
Tne Unscheduled DNA syntheris (UDS) was induced in cultured human amnionic cell line FL in vitro by exposure to 261-B2-3, an extract of Alternaria alternata separated from crops in Linxian county which is a high risk area of esophageal cancer in China. In the absence of S-9M, 261-B2-3 was capable of inducing UDS in target cells and the ratio of UDS elicited by the extract (the range of concentration being 10~(-6) to 10~(-3) mg/ml) was significatly different from the ratio by solvent control (P0.05) with S-9M. The results demonstrated that 261-B2-3 has stronger mutagenicity without S-9M and it's mutagenicity is rising with increasing concentrations in a certain range. On the contrary, 261-B2-3 has no or only a weak mutagenicity with S-9M. It is suggested that there arc direct mutagens in this extract. It is possible that Alternaria alternata contaminated the crops play an important role in the high incidence of esophageal cancer in Linxian county.
2.Effect of extract of alternaria alternata on the synthesis of DNA, RNA and proteins
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 1989;0(06):-
It was known that most chemical carcinogens could interfere with the synthesis of DNA, RNA and protein. The effect of 261-B_2-3, an extract of Alternaria alternata separated from Linxian county which is a high risk area of esophageal cancer in North China interference on the metabolism of these macromolectules was studied. Experi- ments showed that the synthesis of DNA and protein were partially blocked after exposing to 261-B_2-3 and the inhibition rate showed a relationship to the concentration of 261-B_2-3, but 261-B_2-3 gave no evidence of interference of RNA metabolism. Experiments demostrated the difference of action of 261-B_2-3 as inhibiting agent in DNA and protein synthesis. The rate of DNA synthesis decreased with time after the removal of 261-B_2-3 from medium and a valley was found in the curveof DNA synthesis. In contrast to the results with DNA synthesis, the rate of protein increased immediately after the removal of the agent. 261-B_2-3 is regarded as a DNA-damaging agent that inhibits protein synthe sis but does not damage it. The interference of the macromolecules by 261-B_2-3 leads to confusion of cell biology and biochemistry and may play an important role in mutagenicity.

Objective To explore the clinical value of combined detection of serum human epididymal secretory protein E4 (HF4) and CA125 in the diagnosis of endometrial carcinoma.Methods From Jan 2010 to Apr 2011,the serum specimens were collected from124 cases of endometrial carcinoma,97 cases of benign disease of uterus and 109 cases of healthy women.HE4 levels in the serum were detected by ELISA,and CA125 levels in the serum were detected by the electro- ehemiluminescent immunoassay.Those results were shown with median level.Accuracy of the diagnosis was evaluated by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve ( ROC-AUC ).ResultsThe median levels of HE4 and CA125 were 78.09 pmol/L and 33.43 kU/L in serum of endometrial carcinoma group.The median levels of HE4 and CA125 were 46.37 pmol/L and 18.26 kU/L in serum of benign disease of uterus group.The median levels of HE4 and CA125 were 31.75 pmol/L and 12.64 kU/L in serum of healthy women group.The HE4 and CA125 levels in serum of endometrial carcinoma group were significantly higher than those of benign disease of uterus group or healthy women group ( all P < 0.05 ).Compared with that benign disease of uterus group,the ROC-AUC of HE4 and CA125 in endometrial carcinoma group were 0.913 and 0.801,respectively.When the specificity was 95.0%,the sensitivities of HE4,CA125,and combined detection of HF4 and CA125 in endometrial carcinoma group were 41.1%,22.6% and 46.0%,respectively.The positive rates of HE4 and CA125 were 31% (27/86) and 12% (10/86) in stage Ⅰ - Ⅱ of endometrial carcinoma,while the positive rates were 63% (24/38) and 47% (18/38) in stage Ⅲ -Ⅳ of endometrial carcinoma,in which there were significant difference between patients in stage Ⅲ - Ⅳ and stage Ⅰ - Ⅱ (P < 0.01 ).ConclusionsThe combined detection of serum HE4 and CA125 is helpful to the diagnosis of endometrial carcinoma.The sensitivity,specificity and early diagnosis of HE4 are better than that of CA125.The positive rates of HF4 and CA125 in endometrial carcinoma are related to the clinical staging.
8.Research progress in relationship between phospholipase A2 and tumorigenesis
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2014;(15):1007-1010
Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) has been a recent concern given the high incidence of tumors. Increasing amounts of re-search report that PLA2 is an inflammatory factor that is closely associated with tumor incidence. Moreover, it displays high specificity, minimal biological variation, is rarely affected by other inflammation markers, and has a definite relation with the differentiation in tu-mors of the digestive tract, such as intestinal and gastric cancers. PLA2 is also related to the invasion mechanisms, metastasis, and apop-tosis of tumors. In addition, PLA2 can be applied to the scoring and to the clinical and medicinal treatment of the Gleason tumor, which is found in prostatic cancers of the genital system. It is also closely related to the proliferation and infiltration of ovarian cancer cells. Therefore, PLA2 can be used as a new test index for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of tumors, which may generate a new research direction with respect to the forecasting of tumor incidence and progression. The bionomics of PLA2 facilitate the use of inflammatory factors in the detection procedures utilized by clinical laboratories, which can monitor the conditions of cancer patients in advance and effectively customize treatment regimens for such patients.

Objective To evaluate the protective effect of large dose of ambroxol hydrochloride on lung ischemia reperfusion injury in rats and analyze the relationship between ambroxol hydrochloride and pulmonary vascular permeability mediators including EphrinAl, HIF-1α and VEGF at mRNA and protein levels.Methods Rats were operated by the thoracic posterolateral approach.The left lung is-chemia was induced by clamping the hilum of the left inflated lung for 60 minutes, and then followed by a 6-hour reperfusion.Forty rats were divided into ischemia-reperfusion group, ambroxol hydrochloride inter-vention group, sham operation group and blank control group.At the beginning of reperfusion, rats in am-broxol hydrochloride group were infused with ambroxol hydrochloride solution (3.75 mg ·kg~(-1) ·h~(-1)) via femoral vein for six hours.Then, PaO_2, wet-to-dry lung weight ratio, concentrations of IL-1β and TNF-a, activity of myeloperoxidase (MPO), mRNA and protein expressions of EphrinAl, HIF-1a and VECF were detected.Histopathological changes were observed under light microscope.Results (1) Histo-logical observation with light microscope showed significant decrease of diffuse alveolar damage consisting of septal edema, intraalveolar hemorrhage and exsudation in ambroxol hydrochloride group compared with ischemia-reperfusion group.The wet-to-dry lung weight ratio in ambroxol hydrochloride group was de-creased and PaO_2 was elevated significantly.(2) Compared with ischemia-reperfusion group, the concen-trations of IL-1β and TNF-α and activity of MPO in ambroxol hydrochloride group were decreased signifi-cantly.(3) The mRNA and protein expressions of EphrinAl, HIF-la and VEGF in ambroxol hydrochl-oride group did not recover to normal but were down-regulated significantly compared with ischemia-reper-fusion group.Conclusions (1) Large dose of ambroxol hydrochloride can alleviate the LJRI damage by down-regulating the expressions of IL-1β and TNF-α and the activity of MPO in the lung parenchyma.(2) The mRNA and protein expressions of EphrinA1, HIF-1α and VECF can be down-regulated by large dose of ambroxol hydrochloride, which contributes to alleviation of the LJRI damage.The results indicate possible role of gene regulation and fresh pharmacological effect of ambroxol hydrochloride during forma-tion of LIRI.
10.Recent advances in eukaryotic elongation factor 1 alpha 2 and tumor
Journal of International Oncology 2011;38(3):176-179
Eukaryotic elongation factor 1 alpha 2(eEF1 A2),which plays a role in the translational elongation process,is normally expressed only in the heart,brain and skeletal musle,but recent studies found it is highly expressed in a variety of tumors and closely related to the oncogenesis and development of tumor.As the signal transduction mechanism is clarified,eEF1A2 is likely to become a novel target for tumor therapy.
