The effects of MC903, a novel 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2 D3] analogue, on proliferation and differentiation of a human megakaryoblastic leukemia cell line (HIMeg) were investigated. MC903 was found to inhibit cell proliferation and induce cell differentiation of HIMeg cells. Colony formation assay showed that MC903 (10-10 to 10-6mol/L) almost completely inhibited the colony-forming ability of HIMeg cells. Cell cycle analysis demonstrated that MC903 altered the cell cycle distribution; the fraction of cells in G0 + G1 increased while those in S and G2 + M decreased after treatment with MC903 for 4d. The effect of MC903 on proliferation and differentiation of HIMeg cells was in a dose- and time-dependent manner and was more active than that of 1, 25(OH)2, D3,. The results of the present study suggested that 1,25(OH)2 D3 as well as its novel analogue MC903 might play an important role in modulating the proliferation and differentiation of megakaryocytic lineage.

The cellular effects of glucocorticoids on proliferation and differentiation of a human inegakaryoblastic leukemia cell line (HIMeg) were studied in comparison with sex steroid hormones. In both liquid and methylcellulose culture systems, glucocorticoids suppressed the proliferate of HIMeg cells in a dose-dependent manner. In contrast, sex steroid hormones except progesterone had little effects on the proliferation of HIMeg cells. In liquid culture systems, morphological changes were not evident, and the percentage of cells with multilobular nuclei increased slightly from 2% to 8% after glucocorticoid treatment. Similarly, only 2% of HIMeg cells expressed glycoprotein Ⅱb/Ⅲa (GP Ⅱb/Ⅲa) antigen without hormone, whereas 30% of the cells expressed GP Ⅱb/Ⅲa with the addition of glucocorticoids. These data indicated that glucocorticoids could induce differentiation of HIMeg cells. To clarify the molecular mechanisms, glucocorticoid receptor (GR) expression was examind by Scatchard analysis, and it was found that there was a saturable, high affinity GR in HIMeg cells. Furthermore, the cellular effects of glucocorticoids on HIMeg cells could be reversed by RU486, a potent glucocorticoid antagonist. These observations suggest that the cellular effects of glucocorticoids on HIMeg cells were mediated by GR.

The activity of the negative regulator of cell cycle, P27, affects the normal process of cell cycle. As a type of cell cycle diseases, tumor is closely correlated with the activation of P27. It is shown that the level of P27 decreases in most kinds of tumors.By its influence on cell proliferation and apoptosis, P27 plays an important role in the occurrence and development of tumor. The activity of P27 is regulated by several pathways either at or after transcription, so various ideals which directly change the protein level of P27 or indirectly interfere the activities of elements in regulative pathways of P27 will provide many novel and efficient ways for therapies in tumors.

Objective To investigate the chemical constituents in the leaves of Dracaena cochinchinensis.Methods The compounds were separated with column chromatography and their chemical structures were identified by physicochemical and spectral method,respectively.Results Thirteen compounds were isolated from the plant. They were identified as isorhamnerin(Ⅰ),quercetin(Ⅱ),25(R)-spirostane-5-en-3?-ol(Ⅲ),gracillin(Ⅳ),25(R)-spirostane-5-en-3?,14?-diol(Ⅴ),25(R)-spirostane-5-en-3?,14?-diol-3-O-?-D-glucopyranoside(Ⅵ),25(R)-spirostane-5-en-3?,14?-diol-3-O-?-L-rhamnopyranosy(1→4)-?-D-glucopyranoside(Ⅶ),25(R)-spirostane-14?-hydroxy-4-en-3-one(Ⅷ),7?-hydroxysistosterol-3-O-?-D-glucopyranoside(Ⅸ),?-stigmasterol(Ⅹ),stigmasterol-3-O-?-D-glucopyranoside(Ⅺ),daucosterol (Ⅹ Ⅱ),and methyl ?D-glucopyranoside(Ⅹ Ⅲ).Conclusion Spirostane-type steroids are the major constituents in the leaves of D.cochinchinensis.Compounds Ⅰ-Ⅲ,Ⅴ,Ⅵ,Ⅷ,and Ⅸ are isolated from this plant for the first time.

Thirty strains of seven Candida species from CICC(China Center of Industrial Culture Collection)were studied. The strains were differentiated by ITS1 region PCR-SSCP fingerprinting analysis and ITS2 region PCR-SSCP fingerprinting analysis. Results showed that both ITS1 region and ITS2 region were able to differentiate the seven species of Candida clearly. Contrasting the maps and effects on the identification of Candida species of ITS1 region with that of ITS2 region, result indicated that on the identification of Candida species the application of ITS2 region was better than ITS1 region.

Objective To explore the expression profile of Wnt4 in rat kidney during renal development and its effect on renal development. Methods Rats with embryonic age of 18 days (E 18 d) , 20 days (E 20 d) as well as postnatal age of 0 day (P 0 d), 1 day (P 1 d), 3 days (P 3 d), 5 days (P 5 d) and 7 days (P 7 d) were selected. Expression levels of Wnt4 in rat kidney during renal development were quantified by immunohistochemistry and Western blot in all time points. Results Immuno?histochemistry analysis showed that during E 18 d to P 7 d, Wnt4 mainly expressed in proximal tubules, ureteric bud, comma shaped bodies and S shaped bodies of nephrogenic zone;the expression in the distal tubule was weak;the expression in renal corpuscle decreased with time;Western blot analysis showed that the expression of Wnt4 in rat kidney began to decrease from E 18 d and reached bottom at P 1 d then rise again until P 7 d when it dropped again. Conclusion During renal development, Wnt4 proteins were involved in the development of the nephrogenic zone through regulating canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, and was involved in extension of proximal tubules by inducing the non canonical Wnt/PCP signaling pathway. Expression of Wnt4 protein in rat kidney was closely related to nephron formation and development of proximal tubules.

Objective To study the protective effect and Bcl-2 expression of salvia miltiorrhiza pretreatment on retinal ischemia-reperfu-sion injury ( RIRI) . Methods One hundred and thirty two Wistar rats were randomly divided into the normal control group, the ischemia-reperfusion group and the salvia miltiorrhiza pretreatment group. The model of retinal ischemia-reperfusion injury was constructed by increas-ing the intraocular pressure. The ischemia-reperfusion and salvia miltiorrhiza pretreatment group were divided into five subgroups according to the different reperfusion time (6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h). Observe the histological changes in retina by HE staining. The SABC ( strept avidin-biotin complex) and Western-blot were used to measure changes of Bcl-2 protein levels in retinal. Results The positive ex-pression of Bcl-2 protein was weak in normal group. In the ischemia-reperfusion group and salvia miltiorrhiza pretreatment group, the expres-sion of Bcl-2 protein began to increase at 6 hours after reperfusion, reached the peak at 24 hours after reperfusion, began to decrease at 48 hours after reperfusion, and started to weaken at 72 hours after reperfusion. The variation tendency of the two groups were the same, however, the expression of Bcl-2 was significantly stronger in the salvia miltiorrhiza pretreatment group compared with ischemia-reperfusion group, and there was significant difference between the two groups (P<0. 01). Conclusion Salvia miltiorrhiza pretreatment can protect the retina by reducing retinal ganglion cells apoptosis in retinal ischemia-reperfusion injury. The mechanism may be achieved by regulating the expression of Bcl-2 protein.
