Objective:To investigate the relationship between Golgi membrane protein 1 (GOLM1) expression and the sensitivity of estrogen receptor (ER) positive breast cancer to endocrine therapy.Methods:Tamoxifen (TAM) -resistant ER-positive breast cancer cells were established, and the expression of GOLM1 in these cells was detected. The expression level of GOLM1 in the cells was regulated, and the effects of GOLM1 expression on cell proliferation and colony formation were detected by MTT and colony formation assay, respectively. Western blot was used to detect the effect of GOLM1 expression on the expression of drug resistance proteins P-gp and MRP1. Breast cancer patients recruited for endocrine therapy and patients without endocrine therapy were divided into high GOLM1 expression group and low GOLM1 expression group, and the effect of GOLM1 expression level on the survival rate of the two groups of patients was observed.Results:Colony formation assay showed that after TAM treatment, the colony formation ability of TAM-resistant MCF-7 cells was significantly higher than that of TAM-sensitive McF-7 cells (all P<0.05). The expression level of GOLM1 in MCF-7R cells (2.31±0.18) was higher than that in MCF-7 cells (1±0.10) ( t=11.02, P<0.001). Knockdown of GOLM1 in MCF-7R cells decreased the cell proliferation and colony formation ability, and the expression of drug resistance proteins P-gp and MRP1 also decreased (all P<0.05). The survival rate of patients with high GOLM1 expression was lower than that of patients with low GOLM1 expression after endocrine therapy ( χ2=5.45, P=0.020). In patients without endocrine therapy, there was no significant difference in survival between patients with high and low GOLM1 expression ( χ2=1.49, P=0.223) . Conclusion:High expression of GOLM1 is significantly associated with decreased sensitivity to endocrine therapy in ER-positive breast cancer patients.

Objective To investigate the differences in health empowerment,perceived control and experiential avoidance between patients with coronary heart disease(CHD)with type D personality and non-type D personality. Methods From January to October,2022,using the convenient sampling method,a questionnaire survey was conducted on 195 patients with CHD from Affiliated Hospital of Shandong Second Medical University.Assessment tools in-cluded Type D Personality Scale,Chinese Version of Patient Perception Empowerment Scale(CV-PPES),Con-trol Attitudes Scale-Revised(CAS-R)and Acceptance Action Questionnaire-Ⅱ(AAQ-Ⅱ). Results A total of 185 effective questionnaires were returned,and 68 patients with type D personality.Compared with the patients with non-type D personality,the scores of negative affectivity and social inhibition were higher(|t|>9.783,P<0.001),the total score of CV-PPES and the scores of four dimensions(information,decision,individu-al and self-management)were lower(t>5.843,P<0.001),the score of CAS-R was lower(t=2.858,P=0.005),and the score of AAQ-Ⅱ was higher(t=-9.414,P<0.001)in CHD patients with type D personality. Conclusion Compared with non-D-type patients,CHD patients with D-type personality exhibit lower levels of health empowerment and perceived control,and higher level of experiential avoidance,which may negatively impact on health behaviors.
