Objective To investigate the impact of triptolide (TP) on proliferation and apoptosis of imatanib resistant CML cell (K562/G01) and its regulating effect on Wnt/β3-catenin signal pathway.Methods A series of 10,20,40,and 80 nmol/L of triptolide were used in CML cells K562/G01 for 12,24,and 48 hours.The cell proliferation was detected with methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) test.The apoptosis was assessed with flow cytometry (FCM).The mRNA expressions of breakpoint cluster region-c-abl (BCR-ABL),β-catenin and its down-stream targets Lef-1,and cyclinD1 were analyzed with real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR),respectively.Results Triptolide significantly inhibited K562/G01 cell growth ability and induced apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner.Mter being treated with 20,40 nmol/L TP for 24 hours,the cell growth inhibition rates were (22.62 ± 1.33) ％,and (51.41 ±1.39) ％,respectively.The late apuptosis rates were (6.91 ± 0.14) ％,and (7.64 ± 0.47) ％,respectively.Meanwhile,PCR data showed that the mRNA levels of BCR-ABL were decreased,compared to the control group,the mRNA levels of β-catenin,Lef-1,and cyclinD1 were also decreased obviously after treatment.Conclusions Our data indicated that the triptolide could inhibit the proliferation and induce the apoptosis of K562/G01,and the mechanism might be related to the blockade of Wnt/β-catenin signal pathway.

Transforming growth factor β(TGF-β)superfamily ligands play an important role in regulating cellular homeostasis including proliferation,differentiation,apoptosis,immune sur-veillance and angiogenesis.Type Ⅲ TGF-βreceptor (TβRⅢ) is considered to be the coreceptor of TGF-βsuperfamily.TβRⅢnot only has an effect on classical Smad signaling pathway,but also on non-Smad signaling pathway.TβRⅢplays a crucial role in fibrosis,tumor,cardiovascular diseases via mediating kinds of signaling pathways.This paper reviews TβRⅢ mediated sig-naling pathway and its role in fibrotic diseases.

G protein- coupled receptors (GPCRs), also known as seven- transmembrane domain receptors, constitute the largest superfamily of cell surface receptors. By coupling to heterotrimeric G proteins, arrestins and other signaling molecules, GPCRs modulate diverse signal transduction pathways under physiological and pathological conditions. Recent studies have revealed crucial roles of GPCRs in tumorigenesis and development of cancer metastasis. This review summarizes roles of GPCRs, particularly the roles of those coupled to chemokines, prostaglandin, lysophosphatidic acid, endothelin, catecholamine and angiotensin in proliferation, invasion, metastasis and angiogenesis of hepatoma cells and development of hepatocellular carcinoma. The potential of GPCRs- based therapeutics being used for hepatocellular carcinoma is also highlighted.

ObjectiveTo study the expression of EZH2 gene in cervical squamous carcinoma and its clinicopathologic significance. MethodsThe expression of EZH2 mRNA was detected in 21 samples of normal cervical tissue, 27 samples of CIN tissue and 48 samples of cervical squamous carcinoma tissue by RT-PCR. And the relationship between EZH2 expression and the clinical pathological characteristic was analyzed. ResultsThe level of EZH2 mRNA in cervical squamous carcinoma tissues(1.67±0.01)were significantly higher than that in the normal cervical tissues (0) and CIN tissues (0.36±0.02) (P ＜ 0.01).There was no correlation between EZH2 and ages (P ＞ 0.05), while the expression of EZH2 was highly correlated with histologic stage,clinical stage,muscular invasion depth and lymph node metastasis of cervical squamous carcinoma (P ＜ 0.01).ConclusionThe over-expression of the EZH2mRNA may play an important role in the pathogenesis and progression of cervical squamous carcinoma,suggesting that EZH2 might be a new biomarker for diagnosing cervical squamous carcinoma.
