Objective To investigate the effect of a selective inhibitor of COX-2 nimesulide on growth and apoptosis of human cholangiocarcinoma cell line QBC939 in vitro. Methods MTT assay was used to determine the influence of nimesulide on the proliferation of QBC939 cells, apoptosis of QBC939 was measured by transmission electron microscopy and flow cytometry.Expression of apoptosis related genes mRNA and bcl-2 ,bax, survivin were detected by RT-PCR and immunocytochemistry. Results Nimesulide effects a dose-dependent and time-dependent growth inhibition on QBC939 cells. High concentration of nimesulide (200 ?mol/L) not only inhibits the growth of QBC939 cells but also induces apoptosis cell nuclear condensation and apoptotic bodies were seen by transmission electron microscopy. Immunocytochemistry and RT-PCR shows upregulation of bax and down regulation of bcl-2 and survivin. Conclusion Nimesulide significantly inhibits the proliferation of QBC939 in vitro by induction of apoptosis in a dose- and time- dependent manner.

Objective:To study the influence of astragalus injection(黄芪注射液) plus Shenmai injection(参麦注射液) on each stage of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome(HFRS).Methods:Thirty-six cases with HFRS were randomly divided into treated group(n=19) which was treated with western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine (astragalus injection and Shenmai injection) and control group (n=17) which was treated with western medicine alone during fever stage.The curative effects were compared.Results:In treated group the rates of over hypotensive shock stage and over oliguria stage were both 94.74％ ,they were significantly heigher than those in control group(both P<0.05).The prolonged times of polyguria,increased blood urea nitrogen(BUN),and proteinuria in treated group were significantly shorter than those in control group (all P<0.01).Conclusions:The astragalus injection and Shenmai injection possess the ability to enhance the antidisease capability in patient with HFRS and are able to shorten the shock stage,to reduce the occurance rate of oliguria,to shorten the duration of each stage,and finally to shorten ill course and promote the patients to recovery as early as possible.

Objective To investigate the effects of nimesulide, a selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor, on human cholangiocarcinoma QBC939 cell line in vitro. Methods The effects of nimesulide on QBC939 cells were observed with the following techniques: the influence of nimesulide on the proliferation of QBC939 cells was determined by MTT assay; the apoptosis of QBC939 cells was viewed and measured by transmission electron microscopy and flow cytometry, respectively; the expressions of proliferation cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and COX-2 of cholangiocarcinoma cells were detected by immunocytochemistry. Results Nimesulide inhibited the expressions of PCNA and COX-2 and the proliferation of cholangiocarcinoma QBC939 cells, whose effects intensified as the dose increased and time elongated. Flow cytometry showed that the apoptotic rates of QBC939 cells increased significantly as the dose of nimesulide increased. The typical morphologic features of apoptosis were also observed by transmission electron microscopy. Conclusion Nimesulide significantly inhibits the proliferation of QBC939 cells in vitro by inducting cell apoptosis, which may be associated with the downregulation of COX-2 expression, and it also presents the features of dose and time dependents.

Objective The use of in vivo cryotechnique (IVCT) in combination with electrocardiograph (ECG) to study cardiac microcirculation under different hemodynamic conditions in living mouse.Methods Living mouse heart monitored by electrocardiograph was suffered from IVCT and freezing substitution under normal blood flow,myocardial ischemia or cardiac arrest conditions.Hematoxylin eosin (HE)staining,Schiff's staining and immunofluorescence staining for serum albumin,immunoglobulin were utilized on continuous paraffin sections,respectively.Confocal microscopy and statistical analyses were used.Results Comparing with normal hemodynamics,microvascular red cell volume reduction,morphology changed,myocardial cell glycogen loss,serum albumin ectopic distribution to myocardial cytoplasm,T tubular network failure and spacing width were happened in myocardial iscbemia condition; different shapes of red blood cells,myocardial cells glycogen deficiency,T tubular network failure and interval narrowing were found under cardiac arrest conditions.Conclusions Cardiac microcirculation,pathological changes of myocyte and its surrounding microenviroument in living mouse heart can be immediately captured in situ by the application of IVCT and ECG.

Metformin is a first-line drug for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Recently, some clinical studies have been published reporting a reduced incidence of various neoplastic disease (eg. breast cancer, endometrial cancer and gastrointestinal cancer) in diabetic or nondiabetic patients treated with metformin. Metformin inhibits the mammalian target of rapamycin by activating liver kinase B1 (LKB1)/adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) or decreases blood insulin levels, resulting in inhibition of cancer cell growth. There are also many other mechanisms involved in anti-tumor effect of metformin. Although metformin has significant effect on cancers, the prospects for it as an alternative treatment modality and mechanism in various kinds of tumors need further research.

Objective To explore the possible effects on differentiation of SHI-1 cells induced by puerariae radix flavones(PRF)in vitro.Methods SHI-1 cells were treated with PRF in various concertration,then the inhibitory effects of cell proliferation were detected by MTT assay,the cell cycles were analyzed by flow cytometry(FCM),the cells reduction rates were detected by NBT reduction test,and the expression of CD11b and CD14 were tested by FCM.Results 10-50 μg/ml PRF could inhibit the proliferation of SHI-1 cells in a time-and dose-dependent manner,and the cell cycles were arrested in S phase.When SHI-1 cells were treated with 10,30 and 50 μg/ml PRF in 48 houres respectively,the NBT reduction rates of cells were increased in a dose-dependent with PRF(P＜0.05),and the expression of cells surface differentiation antigen CD14 was also increased along with the concentration of PRF.Conclusion The SHI-1 cells could be induced to differentiation partially after treated with 10,30 and 50 μg/ml PRF in vitro.
