Objective:To explore the effect of hederagenin (HE) on the proliferation of bladder cancer cell T24 in vitro and in nude mice.Methods:Human bladder cancer cells T24 were divided into control group and experimental group. The experimental group was cultured with DMEM medium containing 25μg/mL hederogenin, and CCK8 was used to detect cell proliferation ability. Nude mice were divided into a control group and an experimental group and injected with T24 cells. The cells of the experimental group were injected with ivy sapogenin at 30 mg/kg every other day. The protein of T24 cells and tumor mass was extracted to detect the expression of p-JNK/JNK and p-p38/p38.Results:After the bladder cancer cells T24 were treated with hederagenin, the CCK8 results showed that the cell proliferation ability of the experimental group was significantly decreased ( P<0.05) . The expression levels of p-JNK in experimental group and control group were 0.21±0.06 and 0.89±0.15, respectively, and the expression levels of p-p38 were 0.38±0.09 and 1.44±0.26, respectively. The expressions of p-JNK and p-p38 were up-regulated (all P<0.05) . In vivo, it was found that after treatment with ivisaponin, the volume of tumor mass were 1192.07±250.92μm 3 in the subcutaneous tumor experimental group and 2280.50±600.1μm 3 in the control group, and the mass were 0.65±0.29g and 1.62±0.38g, respectively. The mass and volume of the experimental group were decreased (all P<0.05) . We extracted mass proteins, and western blotting results showed that the expression levels of p-JNK in the experimental group and control group were 0.38±0.08 and 1.03±0.19, respectively, and the expression levels of p-p38 were 0.71±0.12 and 1.36±0.25, respectively. The expressions of p-JNK and p-p38 were up-regulated (all P<0.05) . Conclusion:Hederagenin inhibits the proliferation of bladder cancer in vitro and in nude mice through the JNK/p38 MAPK signaling pathway.

Gastric cancer with hemorrhage and cerebral infarction is a serious complica-tion with poor prognosis in clinic. Although the incidence rate is extremely low, the fatality and disability rates are very high. In addition, the opposition in treatment between the two complica-tions increases the difficulty of clinical diagnosis and treatment. The authors report the diagnosis and treatment of a gastric cancer patient with hemorrhage and new cerebral infarction, in order to to provide reference for related treatments.
