[Abstract ] Objective To investigate the molecular mechanism how genistein increased the sensitivity of colon cancer cell to 5-fluorouracil(FU)and promoted colon cancer cell apoptosis.Methods SW480 colon cancer cell line was chosen as experimental object.Genistein 80 μmol/L and 5-FU 30 μg/mL used separated or combined for 48 hours were set as drug experiment group.There were four experiment groups in this study:control group (without any drug),5-FU group,genistein group,5-FU and genistein combined group.The expression of survivin,Bcl-2,p21 ,caspase3 and caspase 9 in the tumor cells of each group at mRNA and protein level was deteced by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Western blotting.The relative expression quantity of genes was determined by comparative threshold method (2 -ΔΔCT )andβ-actin was taken as an internal reference.Semi quantitative analysis was performed for protein relative expression quantity.The DNA combination activity of nuclear factor(NF)-κB of each group was measured by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA).Single factor analysis of variance was used for mean comparison among multiple groups and LSD test was for mean comparison between two groups.Results The expression of caspase3,caspase 9 and p21 of 5-FU and genistein combination group at mRNA (1 .903±0.122,2.726±0.050 and 2.541 ±0.393)and protein level (0.534±0.077,1 .161 ± 0.172 and 0.463±0.016)were all higher than those of control group (1 .001 ±0.052,1 .000±0.014 and 1 .001 ±0.037;0.080 ±0.043,0.248±0.059 and 0.139 ±0.021 ),genistein group (1 .559 ±0.038, 2.394±0.095 and 1 .686 ±0.061 ;0.335 ±0.052,0.478 ±0.059 and 0.304 ±0.018)and 5-FU group (1 .198±0.063,1 .051 ±0.043 and 1 .399±0.055 ;0.194±0.015 ,0.337 ±0.036 and 0.231 ±0.011 );the expression of survivin of 5-FU and genistein combined group at mRNA and protein level (0.165 ± 0.018 and 0.216±0.014)were all lower than those of control group,genistein group and 5-FU group (1 .001 ±0.033,0.775 ±0.044 and 0.395 ±0.030;0.594±0.079,0.375 ±0.014 and 0.295 ±0.014), and all the differences were statistically significant (gene,F = 802.865 ,52.760,39.992,187.288, 37.435 ;protein,F =10.466,44.483,19.490,200.011 ,45 .238;all P <0.01);the difference was also statistically significant in the expression of caspase3 and p21 of 5-FU group and genistein group compared with those of control group (LSD test,P <0.05 ).The results of EMSA assay showed that the DNA binding activity of NF-κB protein of genistein group (461.64 ±15.41 )and combined group (585.28 ±7.82) significantly decreased compared with that of control group (1 067.97 ±36.01)and 5-FU group (718.83± 23.18,LSD-test,P < 0.05).Conclusions Genistein combined with 5-FU seemed to have synergistic effects on apoptosis of colon cancer cell.The mechanism was that genistein inhibited the DNA binding activity of NF-κB mediated by genistein,further up-regulated caspase 3,caspase 9,p21 and down regulated survivin.Therefore,genistein may provide assistance in colon cancer chemotherapy.

Objective To investigate the effects of epinephrine in sepsis-associated lung injury in rats. Methods Thirty SD rats were randomly divided into three groups(n =10 per group):control group received intravenous 0. 9% saline 2. 4 ml/( kg·h ); LPS group received intravenous LPS ( 6 mg/kg ); epi-nephrine treatment group received an infusion of epinephrine 0. 6μg/( kg·min) after LPS intravenous injec-tion . Blood samples were taken at 2 h and 6 h after LPS injection and the levels of serum tumor necrosis factor ( TNF)-α,interleukin( IL)-6 and IL-10 were detected. The rats were sacrificed at 6 h. The lung tissues and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid( BALF) were collected. Pathological changes of the lung tissues were observed under light microscope. Water content of lung,expression of TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-10 in BALF and in serum were detected. Results (1) The water content of lung in LPS group significantly increased compared with that in control group(85. 24% ± 5. 87% vs. 70. 19% ± 5. 87%) and epinephrine group(78. 00% ± 6. 41%) (P<0. 05). (2)Pathological examination showed that LPS could cause pulmonary capillary hyperemia,ede-ma,inflammatory cells infiltration. Atelectasis and alveolar edema were found in small number of lung tissue. Compared with LPS group, epinephrine ameliorated the lung pathological injury. ( 3 ) Compared with LPS group,serum levels of TNF-α and IL-6 significantly decreased ( P <0. 05 ) , whereas IL-10 increased ( P <0. 05) in epinephrine group. (4)Compared with LPS group,BALF levels of TNF-α[(78 ± 9)ng/L vs. (102 ±16)ng/L]andIL-6[(268±42)ng/Lvs.(347±50)ng/L]significantlydepressed(P<0.05),whereas BALFlevelsofIL-10[(210±23)ng/Lvs.(146±34) ng/L]elevated(P <0.05) inepinephrinegroup. Conclusion Epinephrine could reduce the acute lung injury caused by LPS. Its protective effect may be re-lated to decreasing the levels of TNF-α and IL-6,elevating IL-10 level.

ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between the impairment cognitive function and the location and number of infarcts.MethodsThe composites the scores for memory,processing speed and executive function were detected using the neuropsychological measuring scales and determined the cortical,subcortical and cerebral infarcts by magnetic resonance imaging( MRI),then analyzed the relationship between the impairment cognitive function and the location and number of infarcts.ResultsCompared to the control group,the patients with infarcts in multiple locations had poorer memory(the score of AVLT-5 was 6.14 ± 1.89 and 7.26 ± 1.82,respectively,P ＜ 0.01 ).Compared to the patients without infarcts,a combination of cortical and subcortical infarcts was associated with slow processing speed.The patients with multiple infarcts in multiple locations had significantly lower composites scores for memory(the score of LMT-delay was 10.86 ± 3.48 and 12.69 ± 2.60,respectively,P＜ 0.01 ),processing speed ( the score of SDMT was 27.08 ± 11.13 and 34.23 ± 7.44,respectively,P ＜ 0.01 ) and executive function( the score of TMT-B was 1.34 ± 0.65 and 0.40 ± 0.35,respectively,P ＜ 0.01 ) compared to control group.ConclusionThe multiple infarcts in multiple locations is associated with the impairment cognitive function in patients with cerebral infarcts.Suggesting that both the location and the number of infarcts jointly contribute to cognition impairment.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression and clinicopathological significance of the cell cycle regulators cyclin E, cyclin D1, p21, p16 in laryngeal carcinogenesis tissus. METHOD: The expression of cell cycle regulators were detected by flow cytometry method in 23 cases of polyps of vocal cord, 69 cases of laryngeal precancerous change and 33 cases of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), which tissue was paraffin embedded, sliced, dewaxed, and prepared into the cell suspension, then fluorescently labeled by cyclin E, cyclin D1, p21 and p16. RESULT: In polyps of vocal cord, laryngeal precancerous change and LSCC, The positive expression rate of cyclin E and cyclin D1 were respectively 13.04%, 20.29D, 42.420 and 26.09%, 43.48% and 93.94%. The positive expression rate of p16 and p21 were respectively 61.90%, 40.98%, 14.28% and 47.62%, 23.81%, 26.23%. Those showed the positive expression rate of cyclin D1, cyclin E gradually decreased from vocal cord polyps, laryngeal precancerous change to LSCC, (P < 0.05, P < 0.01), while the positive expression rate of p21 and p16 gradually decreased (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION The abnormal expression of cell cycle regulatory factors is the molecular events of laryngeal carcinoma. High expression of positive regulatory factors cyclin D1 and cyclin E, and low expression of negative regulatory factors p16 and p21, which showed the imbalance of multiple positive and negative regulatory factors related with cell cycle play an important role in the occurrence of laryngeal cancer.
