Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of adriamycin in combination with hyperthermia on apoptosis and bcl-2 expression in the chronic leukemic cell line K562/AO2 in vitro.Methods The working con- centration of adriamycin against K562/AO2 determined by using methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT) assay was used to treat the chronic leukemic cell line K562/AO2 in vitro alone or in combination with hyperthermia induced using a hot water bath at 40,41 or 42℃.The inhibitory effect was evaluated by MTT assay.The apoptosis rates and bcl-2 ex- pression of K562/AO2 were determined by flow cytometry.Results The working concentration of adriamycin in the study was defined as its 50% inhibition concentration (IC50).A 60 min session of hyperthermia at 40℃,41℃or 42℃was associated with significant growth inhibition of the cell line K562/AO2.Adriamycin chemotherapy alone and with hyperthermia significantly inhibited the growth of K562/AO2.All treatments significantly increased apoptosis rates and down-regulated bcl-2 expression of the K562/AO2 cell line.Conclusion Adriamycin chemotherapy com- bined with 60 min sessions of hyperthermia showed significant suppression effect on K562/AO2 cell proliferation.The treatment can increase apoptosis rates and down-regulate bcl-2 expression.

The interaction between Gliotoxin and bovine serum albumin (BSA) was studied by the fluo-rescence, Circular Dichroism (CD) and ultraviolet visible (UV-Vis) techniques. The fluorescent experiment showed that the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA was quenched by the binding of gliotoxin in a static quenching procedure, with an association constant of 7.2?103 L/mol and in hydropobic forces. And the CD spectrum revealed that gliotoxin effected the conformation of BSA by increased the mass of ?-helix.

Objective: To explore the peri-operative treatment and 3 years post-operative outcome in patients with rheumatic mitral valve stenosis and small left ventricle. Methods: A total of 152 patients with rheumatic mitral valve stenosis and severe pulmonary hypertension were studied. According to left ventricular end diastolic index (LVEDI) value, the patients were divided into 2 groups: Small left ventricle (Small) group, the patients with LVEDI value≤60 mm, n=67 and Non-small left ventricle (Non-small) group, the patients with LVEDI value>60 mm,n=85. Peri-operative condition and follow-up parameters were compared between 2 groups. Results: Compared with Non-small group, Small group had increased pre-operative CVP, SPAP and decreased LVEDV, LVEDVI and RVEF at admission, all P<0.05. All patients had liver damage at admission, the indexes (except alkaline phosphatase) were higher in Small group than Non-small group, and the function was recovered prior operation by proper treatment. The immediate post-operative SPAP in Small group and Non-small group were (67.3.1±23.4) mmHg and (61.3±26.9) mmHg, P>0.05. There were 52 severe pulmonary hypertension patients received iloprost inhalation, their SPAP was decreased than non-inhalation patients at incision closing; SPAP was lower in Small group inhalation patients than Non-small group inhalation patients, all P<0.05. Post-operative LVEDVI was lower and SPAP was higher in Small group than Non-small group. At 3 years post-operation, LVEDVI, RVEF increased, NYHA classification decreased and 6MWT prolonged in both groups; while LVEDVI was lower and 6MWT was shorter in Small group than Non-small group, P<0.05. The median survival time at (3.7±1.6) years post-operation was shorter in Small group than Non-small group,P<0.05, while the mortality was similar between 2 groups (2.6% vs 2.0%),P>0.05. Conclusion: The patients with mitral valve stenosis and small left ventricle had the worse pre-operative condition and higher risk in surgery; peri-operative treatment could improve their cardiac and liver function, but they still had the shorter post-operative median survival time.

This study is to investigate the anti-tumor activities of a novel cyclophosphamide derivate 4, 6-diphenyl cyclophosphamide (9b) in vivo and in vitro, and its possible mechanism of action. The inhibitory effects of 9b on human hepatoma cell line HepG2, human breast carcinoma cell line MCF-7 and human myeloid leukemia cell line K562 were measured by MTT assay in vitro. Cell cycle distribution and apoptotic rate were evaluated by flow cytometry. To evaluate the anti-tumor effect of 9b in vivo, mouse model bearing inoculated H22 tumor was established. The results indicated that 9b could inhibit the proliferation of HepG2, MCF-7 and K562 cells in a dose and time dependent manner. The ICo50 values of 9b were 32.34 micromol.L-1 to HepG2 cells, 87.07 micromol.L-1 to MCF-7 cells and 149.10 micromol.L-1 to K562 cells after incubation for 48 h. The results of flow cytometry indicated that after being treated for 48 h with different concentrations of 9b, the ratios of HepG2, MCF-7 cells at the Go/G1 phase and K562 cells at the G0/Gl phase and G2/M phase increased significantly compared with control group, and the apoptotic rate increased with the increase of the concentration of 9b. 9b could significantly reduce tumor weight of H22 solid tumor mouse model in vivo. To summarize, 9b showed significantly anti-tumor activity in vivo and in vitro, of which the mechanism might be associated with the change of cell cycle distribution and induction of tumor cell apoptosis.
