This study is to explore new lead compounds by inhibition of Pin1 for anticancer therapy using temperature sensitive mutants. As Pin1 is conserved from yeast to human, we established a high-throughput screening method for Pin1 inhibitors, which employed yeast assay. This method led to the identification of one potent hits, 8-11. In vitro, 8-11 inhibited purified Pin1 enzyme activity with IC50 of (10.40 +/- 1.68) micromol x L(-1), induced G1 phase arrest and apoptosis, showed inhibitory effects on a series of cancer cell proliferation, reduced Cyclin D1 expression, was defined as reciprocally matched for protein-ligand complex in virtual docking analysis and reduced cell migration ability. In vivo, we could observe reduction of tumor volume after treatment with 8-11 in xenograft mice compared with vehicle DMSO treatment. Altogether, these results provide for the first time the involvement of 8-11 in the anticancer activity against Pin1.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the feasibility of identifying oral mucosa pathogenic bacteria by comparing the metabolic profiling of Saccharomyces and try to find a convenient and rapid way to discriminate oral micro-organisms.
METHODSSaccharomyces albicans ATCC 10231 and Saccharomyces tropicalis ATCC 13803 and Saccharomyces glabrata ATCC 15126 were respectively inoculated in sabouraud medium. The growth quantity were measured periodically by a spectrophotometer. And the growth curves of the inoculated bacteria were completed. The culture solutions in stationary phases of the three bacteria were respectively tested with 'H-nuclear magnetic resonance(1H-NMR) spectroscopy. The data of 1H-NMR spectroscopy results were analyzed by principal components analysis (PCA).
RESULTSThe PCA showed respectively a obvious clustering phenomena and the points of every two groups' data stayed separately. Therefore, the NMR-based metabonomics profiles could discriminate the three kinds of mucosa pathogenic bacteria.
CONCLUSIONThe metabonomics can be expected to be a kind of promising useful method in quick discrimination of oral pathogenic bacteria.

Objective: To systematically review the safety and efifciency for dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) ≤ 6 months and DAPT ≥ 12 months in patients after drug eluting stent (DES) implantation. Methods: We collected the data for randomized clinical trials for DAPT ≤ 6 months and DAPT ≥ 12 months in patients after DES implantation up to 2015-01 by searching the literatures of PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Scopus and Chinese literature database, and meanwhile collected the relevant reporting cases from both domestic and international cardiovascular conferences for this study. There were 2 investigators independently conducted the literature screening, data extraction and quality evaluation, Meta analysis was performed with STATA 12.0 software. Results: A total of 15,378 patients from 7 eligible studies were enrolled and the patients were divided into 2 groups: DAPT ≤ 6 months group,n=7672 and DAPT ≥ 12 months group,n=7706. Meta analysis indicated that DAPT ≤ 6 months could effectively reduce the major bleeding (OR=0.58, 95% CI 0.37-0.91,P=0.017). While the other incidences between 2 groups were similar as all cause death (OR=0.90, 95% CI 0.73-1.11,P=0.314), cardiac death (OR=0.93, 95% CI 0.70-1.24,P=0.617), myocardial infarction (OR=1.13, 95% CI 0.91-1.41,P=0.275), in stent thrombosis (OR=1.21, 95% CI 0.79-1.85,P=0.382) and cerebrovascular accidents (OR=1.00, 95% CI 0.66-1.51,P=1.000). Conclusion: The incidence rates of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events are similar in patients with DAPT ≤ 6 months and DAPT ≥ 12 months after DES implantation. DAPT ≤ 6 month had the lower risk of bleeding, which is rather suitable for the patients received new generation of DES, with higher risk of bleeding, lower risk of thrombosis and with poor compliance to medication; however, the large and randomized clinical trials are needed to make ifnal conclusion.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of CT-guided 125I radioactive seed implantation in the treatment of bone metastases. Methods:The data of 43 patients with bone metastases treated by seed implantation from June 2016 to July 2018 in the 3201 Hospital was retrospectively analyzed. The 52 lesions of 43 patients with bone metastases were treated with 125I radioactive seed implantation. The patients were followed up, and the efficacy was evaluated based on pain relief, quality of life improvement, and whole body bone imaging. Results:The number of pain relief patients in 43 patients with bone metastases at 1, 3, 7, 30, 60, 90, and 180 d after 125I radioactive seed implantation were 19, 32, 39, 36, 36, 34, and 31 cases; the pain relief rates were 44.19%, 74.28%, 90.70%, 83.72%, 79.07%, and 72.09%, respectively. The pain relief rate was highest at 7 d after seed implantation, and the pain degree after seed implantation was significantly lower than that before seed implantation, the difference was statistically significant (Z = -5.216, P < 0.05). The difference in quality of life between patients before and after 125I radioactive seed implantation was statistically significant (Z = -4.308, P < 0.05). The re-examination in 3 to 6 months after treatment showed that the metabolism of 45 bone metastases lesions was reduced and shrunk, and the efficiency rate was 86.54% (45/52). Conclusion:125I radioactive seed implantation has good curative effect in the treatment of patients with bone metastases, which can effectively relieve pain, improve local control rate, and improve patients' quality of life.

Objective:To investigate the expression profile change of long non-coding RNA (IncRNA) and mRNA in plasma samples before and after drug resistance of gefitinib for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-sensitive gene mutation treated, and to screen out RNA molecule related to gefitinib-resistance.Methods:A total of 12 NSCLC patients with EGFR-sensitive gene mutation treated by gefitinib from Xianyang Center Hospital of Shaanxi Province and Yongchuan Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from March 2015 to April 2019 were selected. Plasma samples before and after drug resistance were collected, and 6 samples in sensitive stage and 6 samples in drug-resistant stage were taken. Gene microarray was used to screen the differentially expressed lncRNA and mRNA; the biological pathway and the function of the differentially expressed mRNA were obtained by using the gene ontology (GO) function annotation analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis.Results:The microarray detection results showed that the expression profiles of lncRNA and mRNA in the plasma of NSCLC patients were different before and after gefitinib-resistance. Fold change≥2 and P < 0.05 were taken as the differential gene screening standard, finally 38 differentially expressed lncRNAs and 53 differentially expressed mRNAs were found. Compared with the sensitive stage, 18 lncRNAs were differentially up-regulated and 20 lncRNAs were down-regulated in the drug-resistant stage; the largest up-regulation lncRNA was RP1-102K2.6 (fold change was 47.31), and the largest down-regulation lncRNA was RP11-149I2.4 (fold change was 24.34). In mRNA expression microarray, compared with sensitive stage, the expressions of 29 mRNAs were up-regulated and 24 mRNAs were down-regulated in the drug-resistant stage, the largest up-regulation mRNA was CUL2 (fold change was 58.49), the largest down-regulation mRNA was CHEK2 (fold change was 23.29). GO functional analysis showed that the differentially expressed mRNA in the plasma of patients with gefitinib-resistance were enriched in the apoptosis and protein binding regulation process. KEGG analysis showed that the differentially expressed mRNA mainly targeted cancer pathway, NSCLC pathway and other pathways. Conclusion:For NSCLC patients with EGFR gene sensitive mutation, there are multiple differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs in plasma before and after drug resistance, and the differential expression may play an important role in the mechanism of gefitinib resistance.
