Objective Cellular response to estradiol is mediated both by estrogen receptor (ER) binding to estrogen response element (ERE) and by non-nuclear actions like activation of signal transduction pathways such as mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. However, the signal transduction of estrogen involving phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-protein kinase B (PI3K -PKB) is not clear in endometrial carcinoma. Our purpose was to study if PI3K-PKB signaling pathway could be activated rapidly by 17?-E 2 through non-nuclear action and also, whether PI3K inhibitor, LY294002, could inhibit such non-nuclear action of 17?-E 2 in endometrial carcinoma cell line Ishikawa. Methods Levels of phosphorylated PKB(Ser473 site, p-PKB) and total PKB were examined by western blotting in Ishikawa cells after stimulation with 17?-E 2 at 1?10 -6 mol/L for different time periods and at varied doses for 30 min. Optimal time and appropriate dose for 17?-E 2 to activate PKB in Ishikawa cells were observed. Inhibitory effect of LY294002 on activation of PKB induced by 17?-E 2 was also studied. p-PKB/PKB ratio was used to indicate levels of activation of PKB. Results p-PKB/PKB at 15 min (0.533?0.029) was significantly higher than the control (0.361?0.029, P 0.05, 0.05,

Background and purpose: Alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) is a rare malignant neoplasm characterized by slow growth and indolent behavior, and most of the patients had metastases in diagnoses. This study was to define clinical features and assess prognostic factors of ASTS. Methods: Between January 2003 and December 2008, there were 15 patients with ASTS who received treatment and were followed up in the Department of Orthopedic Ontology of Peking University People's Hospital. We retrospectively analyzed the clinical factors of the disease related to prognosis: gender, age, tumor size, primary tumor site, metastatic sites, local recurrence, the roles of postoperative radiotherapy and postoperative chemotherapy. Resnlts: At a follow-up from 7 to 76 months, only 2 patients had local recurrences after excision, but there was a high incidence of pulmonary metastases. Only 6 patients achieved disease free survival, 5 patients died of metastases or other complications. The five-year overall survival rates was 41.7%, and the median survival time was 42.0 months. Univariate analysis and Cox regression analysis revealed that tumor size, tumor primary site and metastases at diagnoses were prognostic factors, but not gender and age, Conclusion: Alveolar soft part sarcoma is a high grade malignant soft tissue neoplasm with frequent metastases to lung, bone or brain. Tumor size, primary tumor site and metastases at diagnoses are some of the prognostic factors. Chemotherapy or radiotherapy after surgery have no benefit to the survival in our analysis. Further prospective studies are needed to clarify the best strategy for the treatment of ASPS.

ObjectiveTostudytheinhibitioneffectof c-mycASODN(antisense oligodeoxynucleotide) and 5-FU (5-fluorouracil) on the expression of c-myc gene and the proliferation of human hepatomacellsHEPG-2. MethodsAfter treatedbyliposomemediatedc-mycantisense phosphorothioate oligodeoxynucleotide (APSODN) and 5-FU, the growth inhibition rate was detected by MTT assay, the expression of c-myc mRNA was detected by RT-PCR and immunohistocehemical methods HEPG-2cells. The cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometric analysis. The morphological changes were observed by fluorescence staining and cellular genome electrophoresis. ResultsAfter sealing c-myc gene with ASODN,the growth of cells was repressed and the effect was time-dependent and dose-dependent ( P = 0. 02 ). The ability of proliferation decreased, the expression of c-myc gene was inhibited on transcription and translation levels; 5-FU can induce apoptosis of hepatoma cells HEPG-2 dramatically with the dose of 10 μ mol/L, when treated by both c-myc ASODN and 5-FU, HEPG-2 cells was induced apoptosis in a cooperative style ( P =0. 01 ).ConclusionsThe liposome mediated c-myc (APSODN) and 5-FU can inhibit the proliferation of HEPG-2 cells by inhibiting the expression of c-myc gene and can induce apoptosis of hepatoma cells HEPG-2 in a cooperative style. c-myc ( APSODN ) can increase the sensitivity of 5-FU to hepatoma cells and decrease the effective concentration of 5-FU.
