AIM: To investigate the effect of c-Myc inhibitor 10058-F4 on human chronic myeloid leukemia ( CML) K562 cells and imatinib-resistant K562/G cells.METHODS: The protein expression of c-Myc was detected by Western blotting .Cell proliferation was evaluated by MTT assay and colony formation assay .PI staining was used to deter-mine the cell cycle distribution .Annexin V-PI staining was applied for apoptosis detection .RESULTS:Imatinib-resistant K562/G cells displayed lower sensitivity to imatinib than K 562 cells with high expression of c-Myc.Treatment with specific c-Myc inhibitor 10058-F4 inhibited the cell proliferation in a dose-and time-dependent manner , and K562/G displayed more sensitivity to 10058-F4 than K562 cells.10058-F4 also induced cell cycle arrest in G 0/G1 phase and induced apoptot-ic cell death in the 2 cells.Importantly, 10058-F4 suppressed the colony formation ability in K 562 and K562/G cells. CONCLUSION:c-Myc is a novel target to overcome imatinib-induced drug resistance , and c-Myc inhibitor provides a new approach in CML therapy .

Objective To evaluate the reasons of positive MR findings and negative radionuclide bone scan in the spinal metastasis.Methods 68 patients with spinal metastasis were undergone MR scan and radionuclide bone scan.MRI appearances including the site,location and their relation to the cortex of bone were analyzed. The relationship between MRI and radionuclide bone scan appearances were also analyzed.Results 561 lesions were detected by MRI,and only 199 lesions were found by raionuclide(199/561=35.47%).133 lesions located in the bone marrow without cortex erosion were not detected by radionuclide bone scan. The detective ratios of lesions located in the subcortex and through cortex were 25.58%(55/215) and 67.61%(144/213) on radionuclide bone scan respectively. The detective ratios in small lesions (

Aim To investigate the effect of Salvianol-ic acid A (Sal A)on mice with isoproterenol (ISO)-induced myocardial infraction and its possible mecha-nisms.Methods The mice were subcutaneously in-jected with ISO (8 mg·kg-1 )to induce myocardial in-farction.The myocardial protective effect of Salvianolic acid A was evaluated from mortality rate,electrocardio-gram (ECG),heart function,myocardial infarction in-dex,serum myocardial enzymes and its action mecha-nisms were explored from inflammation,anti-oxidation and cells apoptosis.Results Salvianolic acid A dose-dependently enhanced the heart function of myocardial infarction mice,reduced the heart index,inhibited the myocardial enzyme leakage,showed obvious myocardi-al protection effects.ELISA results showed that Salvi-
anolic acid A could reduce the expression of myocardial inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6(interleukin-6,IL-6),TNF-α(tumornecrosis factor-α,TNF-α).West-ern-blotting confirmed that Salvianolic acid A could in-crease the expression of anti-apoptotic proteins Bcl-2, reduce the expression of apoptosis protein Bax,and raise the phosphorylation level of PI3K and Akt.Con-clusion Salvianolic acid A displays a significant pro-tective effect against isoproterenol-induced myocardial infarction and its mechanism may be related to the in-crease of PI3K/Akt signal pathway and the inhibition of cell apoptosis and inflammatory reaction.

Background:Accumulating evidence links colorectal cancer (CRC) with the gut microbiota.Fusobacterium nucleatum (F.nucleatum) has been revealed to be involved in the development of CRC, however, the mechanism of F.nucleatum in mediating colorectal tumorigenesis is still poorly understood.Aims:To investigate the effect and potential mechanism of F.nucleatum on CRC.Methods:Wild type C57BL/6 mice and APC(Min/+) mice characterized by multiple intestinal neoplasia were used in this animal study.After administered with F.nucleatum intragastrically and/or 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH, a carcinogen) subcutaneously, the aberrant crypt foci (ACF) and colonic tumor were counted at 8th and 20th week, respectively.Structural alteration of intestinal microbiota and mucosal immune factors were detected in wild type C57BL/6 mice receiving different interventions by using Roche 454 GS FLX pyrosequencing and Bio-Plex ProTM cytokine assay, respectively.Results:In DMH-treated wild type C57BL/6 mice or APC(Min/+) mice, number of ACF and colonic tumor in those administered with F.nucleatum were significantly higher than those without (P<0.05).F.nucleatum colonization significantly altered the lumen microbial structure, with decreased Cyanobacterium and increased Tenericutes and Verrucomicrobia (P all <0.05).Furthermore, F.nucleatum up-regulated expressions of tumor-related immune factors in colonic mucosa, such as IL-21, IL-22, IL-31 and CD40L (P<0.05).Conclusions:F.nucleatum colonization in intestine may prompt colonic tumorigenesis in mice via inducing intestinal dysbiosis and modulating tumor-related immune factors expression.

Objective To explore the effects of empowerment education model on glycemic control and self-management behavior of community patients with diabetes. Method A total of 120 diabetics from 2 different communities were set as the observation group and control group. The control group was treated by routine medications and health education and the observation group was intervened with empowerment education model. After intervention for 6 months, the patients′blood glucose index and the diabetes self-management behavior were assessed and compared by scale of the diabetes self-care activities (SDSCA) between the two groups. Result By the end of the study, the glycemic index and SDSCA score in the former group were both significantly decreased than those in the control group (P<0.05), indicating the patients in the experiment group had better glycemic control and self-management behaviors compared with those in the control group. Conclusions Empowerment education model can arouse the internal motivation of patients to change their behaviors from passive to active acceptance in the health education. Empowerment education model can enhance diabetes patients′self-management conduct and the glycemic level.

Cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) are a imaging manifestation of small vessel disease, and have a marked impact on the recurrence and on hemorrhagic transformation of ischemic stroke. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common arrhythmia,w hich significantly increases the risk of stroke,and the incidence of CMB in AF patients is also significantly higher than that in non-AF patients.Antithrombotic therapy is the cornerstone of stroke prevention,but it also increases the risk of bleeding.The benefit of stroke prevention and the bleeding risk should be assessed in AF patients w ith CMBs.

Objective? To explore the effect of applying sensitive indicators of emergency nursing in quality control closed loop management system, and to promote the development of emergency nursing quality management towards refinement, standardization and homogenization. Methods? By reviewing the literatures of emergency nursing sensitive indicators and quality control evaluation indicators at home and abroad in recent five years, the closed-loop management scheme of emergency nursing quality sensitive indicators was constructed, and further improved through training and feedback control.
