Objective To investigate the effect of STAT3 knockdown on the sensitivity of breast cancer cells with drug-resistant to adriamycin (MCF-7/ADR). Methods Levels of STAT3 and p-STAT3 in MCF-7/ADR and MCF-7 cells were detected by Western Blot. The MCF-7/ADR cells were infected with lentivirus expressing STAT3-shRNA and the negative control vectors in the STAT3-RNAi group and NC group, respectively, wihle the cells in the blank group received no treatment. The transfection efficiency was observed with fluorescence microscope, the mRNA level of STAT3, protein levels of STAT3 and p-STAT3 were detected by qRT-PCR and Western Blot, respectively. MCF-7/ADR cells were treated with different concentrations of adriamycin for 48 hours, cell proliferation was detected by MTT assay and cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. Results Levels of STAT3 and p-STAT3 in MCF-7/ADR cells were significantly higher than those in the MCF-7 cells (P < 0.05). The levels of STAT3 mRNA, STAT3 and p-STAT3 in the STAT3-RNAi group were significantly lower than those in the Con group and the NC group (P<0.05, respectively). The Adriamycin IC50 in the Con group, NC group and STAT3-RNAi group was (56.1 ± 3.00)ug/mL,(54.9 ± 11.9)ug/mL and (7.6 ± 0.2)ug/mL, respectively. The flow cytometry results showed that the cell apoptosis in the Con group, the NC group and the STAT3-RNAi group was (10.5+0.7)%, (11.7+0.7)%and (34+3.1)%, respectively. Conclusion LV-shRNA-STAT3 can significantly inhibit STAT3 expression and enhance the sensitivity of breast cancer cells to adriamycin, and the underlying mechanism may be related to cell apoptosis.

The interferons(IFNs) are a family of the multifunctional cytokines, which are a kind of highly active and multifunctional glycoproteins.Studies in recent years have shown that IFNs exert a powerful antitumor effect by regulating the proliferation of tumor cells, suppressing tumor metastasis and angiogenesis, and activating antitumor immune response.Combined with other tumor treatment methods, it can inhibit the development of a variety of blood system tumors and solid tumors.In addition, the use of IFNs inducers or IFNs combined with emerging immunotherapy can significantly increase the effectiveness of tumor therapy.This review focuses on our understanding of antitumor mechanism and clinical application of IFNs, and provides some guidance for future research and clinical treatment.

Objective To explore the association of genetic polymorphism of fucosyltransferase (FUT) 2 and FUT3 and expression of Lewis antigen with ulcerative colitis (UC) in Chinese Zhejiang Han population.Methods We genotyped FUT2 (rs281377, rs1047781 and rs601338) and FUT3 (rs28362459, rs3745635 and rs3894326) in 485 UC patients and 580 healthy controls using SNaPshot. By immunohistochemistry method, we also evaluated expression of Lewis a and b antigens in the sigmoid colon of 10 UC patients and 10 patients with benign colonic polyps.Results The frequencies of mutant allele (A) and genotype (GA+AA) in FUT3 rs3745635 were higher in UC patients than in controls (P=0.016, 95%CI 1.339-1.699;P=0.038, 95%CI 1.330-1.742, respectively). Stratified analyses revealed that the frequencies of mutant allele (G) and genotype (TG+GG) of FUT3 rs28362459 were significantly lower in patients with extensive colitis than in those with distal colitis (P=0.001, 95%CI 0.567-0.786;P<0.001, 95%CI 0.503-0.742, respectively). Similar conclusions were drawn for the mutant allele (A) and genotype (GA+AA) of FUT3 rs3745635 in patients with extensive colitis compared to those with distal colitis (P=0.011, 95%CI 0.621-0.900;P=0.006, 95%CI 0.553-0.845, respectively). Although expression of Lewis b antigen in the sigmoid colon did not differ between UC patients and controls, Lewis a antigen expression was higher in the crypt epithelium of both inflammatory and non-inflammatory sigmoid colon of UC patients than in controls (P=0.028).Conclusion Polymorphisms of FUT3 and expression level of Lewis a antigen might be associated with UC.

AIM: To observe the changes of cardiomyocytes after stimulation by TNF-?, IL-1?, LPS.METHODS: Cardiac ventricular myocytes were cultured in vitro. Different doses of TNF-?, IL-1?, LPS were added to stimulate the cardiomyocytes, the hypertrophy of cardiomyocytes 8 h, 24 h, and 48 h after stimulation was determined and the apoptosis were also observed 24 h, 48 h, 72 h after stimulation. RESULTS: Compared to the normal myocytes, the cardiomyocytes were hypertrophied after stimulation by 10 ?g/L, 15 ?g/L of TNF-?, 20 ?g/L, 100 ?g/L of IL-1? and 10 mg/L, 15 mg/L, 20 mg/L of LPS, and the effect was dose-dependent, the strongest effect was showed in 24 h. Moreover, 20 ?g/L of TNF-?, 100 ?g/L of IL-1? and 30 mg/L of LPS caused cardiomyocyte apoptosis, especially in 72h. CONCLUSION: TNF-?, IL-1?, LPS induced the cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and apoptosis, suggesting the inflammation may be the main cause of cardiovascular disease.

c-Met is one member of the receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs).It is closely related between the over-expression of c-Met and a wide variety of tumor occurrence, development, invasion, metastasis, prognosis and drug resistance.Therefore, c-Met is a potential target for oncotherapy, and researches on its inhibitors have become a hot spot in the field of tumor treatment.Aptamers targeting c-Met are gained from systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX).They can bind to c-Met with high specificity and affinity, resulting in the activation or inhibition of c-Met.We envision that anti-c-Met aptamers would be ideal new c-Met inhibitors after optimization, and could be developed into potential targeted drugs for cancers.

Objective To investigate the role of rat organic anion transporter 1 (OAT1, SLC22A6) in the renal cellular uptake of AA Ⅰ and its impact on cellular toxicity. Methods HEK-293 cells were transfeeted with rat OAT1 cDNA or empty vectors. The over-expression of rOAT1 was confirmed by Western blot analysis and its activity was validated by using para-aminohippurate (PAH) as a probe. Cellular apoptosis was examined by flow cytometery using propodium iodode (PI) and annexin V-FITC staining. Results Concentration-and time-dependent intracellular accumulation of AA Ⅰ was observed in rOATl-transfected HEK-293 cells. After treatment with AA Ⅰ at the concentrations of 40 mg/L, 80 mg/L, 120 mg/L and 160 mg/L,respectively, for 45 min, the intracellular concentrations of AA Ⅰ in rOAT1-transfected HEK-293 cells were higher than those in controls (P<0.05). After treatment with AA Ⅰ (120 mg/L for 30 min, 60 min, 90 min and 120 min, respectively, the intracellular concentrations of AA Ⅰ in rOAT1-transfected HEK-293 cells were higher than those in controls (P<0.05). PAH significantly reduced the intracellular accumulations of AA Ⅰ in rOAT1-transfected HEK-293 cells. After treatment with AA Ⅰ at the concentrations of 40 mg/L, 80 mg/L, 120 mg/L and 160 mg/L respectively for 35 min, the intracellular accumulations of AA Ⅰ in rOAT1-transfected HEK-293 cells that treated with PAH were lower than those that were not treated by PAH. Cellular apoptosis and caspase-3 expression in rOAT1-transfeeted HEK-293 cells were significantly up-regnlated as compared to controls (P<0.05). Conclusion rOAT1 is involved in the cellular uptake of AA Ⅰ which leads to increased epithelial apoptosis. Further studies are suggested to investigate the role of human OAT in the disposition of AA and its toxicological consequences.
