1.Lymphoma and cAMP signaling pathway
China Oncology 2016;26(6):556-560
Several signaling pathways are involved in clonal proliferation of lymphoma cells and disease progression. It has been shown that cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) signaling pathway, as an important intra-cellular messenger delivery system, is related to modulation of multiple physiological processes including cell prolifer-ation, secretion, metabolism and apoptosis. Manipulating the cAMP signaling pathway can induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of various malignant lymphoid cells, which involves mitochondria-dependent apoptosis and cAMP-modulated protein kinases as well as changes of intracellular mediators. In-depth research and analysis of cAMP-induced apoptosis in lymphoma cells would provide potential targets and possible therapeutic means for the treatment of lymphoma.

Objective To compare 2 methods to immobilize probes on the surface of gold membrane and select the better one for aptamer immobilization of aptamer-based piezoelectric quartz crystal sensor. Methods Anti-IgE aptamers were immobilized on the gold surface of piezoelectric quartz crystal sensor with thiol method or biotin-avidin method. The changes of frequency were compared in reactions with different concentrations of IgE. Results Biotin-avidin method obtained higher frequency changes in the reactions of IgE, lower limit of detection and wider liner range than thiol method. For biotin-avidin method, there was significant linear correlation between frequency changes and the concentration of IgE with the correlation coefficient of 0.994 5. Conclusion The thiol method which is proved effective for probe immobilization on gene sensor is unfit for aptamer immobilization. Biotin-avidin method has a better ability to immobilize probe on the surfaces of aptamer-based piezoelectric quartz crystal sensor.

OBJECTIVE A new piezoelectric aptamer biosensor is developed for determination of IgE. The energy converters are 10MHz AT-cut quartz crystals with gold-coated electrodes. The anti-IgE aptamers are immobilized onto the surfaces of crystals gold electrodes by biotin-avidin method. METHODS The standard substance and serum were detected to find the limit of detection and specificity of the biosensor.

Objective To investigate the effect of tumor necrosis factor receptor-p55/p75(TNFR-p55/ TNFR-p75) on the pathogenesis of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) in rats. Methods Thirty-six male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 2 groups: SAP group and control group. SAP model was ~induced by injection of 5% sterile sodium taurocholate into biliopancreatic duct, while control group was only given sham operation. Rats were sacrificed at 3, 6, and 12 hours after the onset of operation. Blood sample and pancreatic tissues were collected. The severity of pancreatitis was assessed according to the level of serum amylase and histological scoring. The serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?) were examined by ELISA. Expressions of TNFR-p55 mRNA and ~TNFR-p75 mRNA in pancreatic tissues and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were measured by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. Results The levels of serum amylase and TNF-? in SAP group were both significantly higher than those in the control group at each time point (P
