As a kind of pesticide, fungicide and preservative, PCP had been used extensively in industry, agriculture and domesticity throughout the world. PCP contamination is generally associated with sediments or soil, it can also concentrate in organism. Regarding the character of high toxicity, long persistence and difficult to degrade, PCP has become a kind of conspicuous environmental pollutant because of widely use and inappropriate disposal. In the contaminated area, PCP can be detected in the water, soil and the body of organisms. PCP can affect human health through directly exposure or through food chain. The absorbed PCP can be stored in liver, kidney and fat,it can also increase the incidence rate of tumork, disturb the endocrine system, affect immune function,inhibit reproduction and development. PCP not only has a direct impairment on human body but also shows a potential impact in genetics.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between fragile histidine triad(FHIT) transcription abnormalities and HPV16 infection and human cervical tumorigenesis.Methods Total RNA from 5 cervical carcinoma cell lines(SiHa,HeLa,RJC-1,CS1213 and C4-1),58 primary cervical cancer specimens and 18 normal cervical epithelial tissues were extracted and FHIT transcripts were characterized by a two-step(nested) reverse transcription(RT)-PCR.The seven of the PCR products with different size were purified and sequenced.HPV16 infection was assessed by PCR.Results ① There were altered FHIT transcripts in SiHa,HeLa and C4-1 cells.Aberrant FHIT transcripts were detected in 39 out of the 58 cervical cancer samples(67.2%),but none out of 18 in the normal cervix tissue specimens(0%);HPV16 infections were identified in 37 of the 58 cervical cancer tissues(63.8%),but 1 in the 18 normal cervical epithelial tissues(5%),which showed a significant difference between these two groups(P0.05).③ The exon 5 and exon 6 were mainly deleted in the altered FHIT transcripts and no insertion and point mutation were found by DNA sequencing.Conclusion Aberrant FHIT expression was significantly common in cervical cancers and was correlated with HPV16 infection.These findings suggest that the tumor suppressor gene FHIT and high risk HPV16 may play a very important role in human cervical carcinogenesis.

Objective To investigate the effects of serum from burned rats on the gene expression in cultured rat mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Methods Bone marrow was extracted from sacrificed Wistar rats, and MSCs were then incubated for 24h in F-12 medium in the presence of normal rat serum (group N) or serum obtained from burned rats 3 days after injury (group B). Total RNA was extracted from both groups.The mRNA was isolated.An Oligo microarray containing 5705 genes was used to compare the differences of gene expression between two groups. Results There were four genes which expressed differently in two groups.In comparison with group N, the expression of steroid sensitive gene 1 was decreased, but that of fibroblast growth factor-4, dihydroxyacetonephosphate acyltransferase and a EST, which was moderately similar to Bmp2-inducible kinase, were increased in group B. Conclusion Serum from burned rats was able to change the gene expression of MSCs, and it might play the key role in wound repair.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of furanodiene(FDE),a diterpene derived from the medicinal plant Zedoary,on apoptosis of human gastric cancer MGC-803 cells induced in vitro. METHODS MGC-803 cells were treated with FDE 46.29~740.74μmol·L-1 for 24,48 and 72 h,and the cell viability was detected with MTT assay. Cell morphology was observed by light microscopy and Hoechst33342 staining. Flow cytometry was used to detect cell apoptotic rate and cell cycle. Rh123 staining and fluorescence probe DCFH-DA were employed to detect the changes in mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and reactive oxygen species(ROS). RESULTS MTT Results showed that FDE 46.29-740.74μmol · L-1 exhibited significantly higher cytotoxicity to gastric cancer MGC-803 cells. IC50 for MGC-803 of 24,48 and 72 h treatment was 347.91,257.41 and 101.01μmol·L-1,respectively. Treatment with FDE 92.58-370.32μmol·L-1 for 24 h also caused significant morphological changes in MGC-803 cells. AnnexinⅤ-FITC/PI double staining showed that the apoptotic rate increased after FDE 92.58-370.32μmol·L-1 treatment for 24 h(P<0.05). FDE enabled MGC-803 cell cycle arrest in S phase. DCFH-DA staining showed that FDE resulted in an increase in intracellular ROS levels(P<0.05) when PDE concentration was 370.37μmol·L-1(P<0.05). MMP decreased after FDE treatment when PDE concen?tration was 370.37μmol·L-1(P<0.05). CONCLUSION FDE Possesses potent tumor selected toxicity and can induce apoptosis of MGC-803 cells through cell cycle arresting,which is related to inhibition of DNA biosynthesis.
