Objective To study the effect of osgentide (OST) on proliferation of mouse preosteoblast MC3T3-E1 under simulated microgravity ( SMG ) .Methods Under normal conditions , cell proliferation was evaluated by MTT assay to screen an OST compound of an effective concentration after MC 3T3-E1 cells were treated with series OSTs .Furthermore, cell proliferation and cell cycle distribution of MC 3T3-E1 cells were analyzed after treatment with 1 nmol/L OST5 by MTT assay and by flow cytometry ( FCM) scanning under SMG .Results Under normal conditions , 1 nmol/L OST5 was able to significantly promote the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells (P<0.01).Under SMG, proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells was significantly inhibited and more cells entered G 1 than under normal conditions (CN).The proportion of S phase of MC3T3-E1 cells after treatment with 1 nmol/L OST5 ( OST-SMG) for 3 d was higher than that of untreated MC 3T3-E1 cells under SMG,suggesting that OST5 could promote DNA synthesis ( P<0.05 ) .Conclusion OST5 facilitates the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells under SMG, which provides a basis for the use of OST5 in the prevention and treatment of bone loss relat-ed to microgravity .

Objective Multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 (MRP1) has been reported with a close correlation with tumor multi-drug resistance. Real-time quantitative PCR (QRT-PCR) was performed to detect the MRP1 gene expression in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and its clinical signiifcance was analyzed. Methods Sixty-seven denovo ALL patients and 10 healthier children as bone marrow donor were studied. The chemotherapy was given according to CCLG-2008 protocol. SPSS software was employed to analyze the data and p-value below 0.05 was regarded as statistic signiifcance. Results MRP1 expression level showed a close correlation with ALL risk, the median of MRP1 expression was 4.28 (2.75~6.12), 5.62 (4.99~8.60) and 7.56 (3.66~11.13) for standard-risk group (SR), intermediate-risk group (IR) and high-risk group (HR), respectively. MRP1 mRNA expression in T-ALL group was 7.71 (6.49~14.35), which is higher than that of B-ALL (5.18(3.89~8.46)) (P<0.01). The rate of leukemia cells’ sensitivity to prednisone on 7th day was 70.6%in high expression group (n=34), which was signiifcantly lower than that in low expression group (n=33, 90.9%, P=0.035). The complete remission rateon 33th day was 64.7%in high expression group, and 87.9%in low expression group, which showed a signiifcant difference between them (P=0.026). Conclusions In children ALL, the expression of MRP1 is closely related with immunophenotyping, treatment response, hazard level and disease relapse.

Purpose To investigate the pathological characteristics of loco-regional recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma ( rNPC ) . Methods Nasopharyngeal biopsy specimens of 46 rNPCs and 63 primary NPCs were collected. HE staining, immunohistochemistry and EBV small RNAs ( EBERs) in-situ hybridization were performed. Results The over-expression rates of both p63 and CK5/6 in rNPC were significantly higher than those of primary NPCs (P=0. 005, P=0. 026), while no statistical significance of Ki-67 over-ex-pression existed between the two groups ( P=0. 387 ) . More necrotic tissues, inflammatory exudates, giant bizarre carcinoma cells, desmoplastic stroma, giant bizarre tumor cells and higher degree of squamous differentiation were found in rNPCs. The carcinoma cells of 5 rNPCs were negative for both EBERs in-situ hybridization and LMP-1 immunohistochemical staining. Conclusion The loco-re-gional rNPC has two peaks of latency interval:2~5 and 9~11 years. The loco-regional rNPC cells have higher degree of squamous differentiation with higher expression of p63 and CK5/6, as well as more invasive ability. In addition, both EBERs in-situ hybridization and LMP-1 immunostaining are negative in 10. 87% (5/46) of loco-regional rNPC.

Objective To explore the effect of dose rate of X-rays on migration of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells and provide the experimental basis for developing radiotherapy scheme. Methods Human NSCLC cell line A549 was cultured and irradiated with X-rays at dose of 6 Gy from a linear accelerator. The dose rates of 1, 2, 4 and 6 Gy/min were selected. Monolayer adherent cells were scratched and photographed at 0 hour and 24 hours under a microscope to measure the scratch width. Results After 24 hours, the scratch width of nonirradiated control cells was (640.7±8.1)μm. The scratch widths of cells were different when cells were irradiated with X-rays of various dose rates. Scratch widths were the largest in cells irradiated at dose rates of 1 Gy/min [(691.4±7.6)μm] and 6 Gy/min [(691.8±12.1)μm]. The scratch width was (666.2±1.3) μm of X-rays at 4 Gy/min, and there were significant differences compared with nonirradiated group (all P< 0.01), which suggested that inhibitory effect of X-rays at dose rates on A549 cell migration was obvious. However, the scratch width of cells irradiated at 2 Gy/min [(643.5 ±6.8) μm] had no difference compared with the control cells (t=-0.336, P=0.742). Conclusions The effect of X-rays irradiation on cell migration of human NSCLC cell line A549 is related with irradiated dose rate. The effect of different dose rates on cell migration is significantly different. Selecting appropriate dose rates for irradiation may help to improve the efficacy of radiotherapy.
