Objective To explore the influence of all-trans retinoic acid(ATRA) on in-vitro proliferation of human lung adeno-carcinoma cell line A549 and to preliminarily study its mechanism .Methods The human lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549 was taken as the experimental group .The cells in the experimental group and the control group were detected by using 3-(4 ,5-dimethyl-thiazol-2-yl)-2 ,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide(MTT) assay for calculating the cell growth inhibition rate ;the microstructure of the cultured cells was observed by the transmission electron microscope technique ;the expression of cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2) in the cell supernate was detected by the enzyme linked immunosorbent assay .Results The different concentrations of ATRA for treating A549 cells could produce the inhibiting effect on A 549 cells to some different degrees ,furthermore ,after 72 h ,the expression of COX-2 in cytoplasma among the various concentrations groups was significantly decreased ,which was positively correlated with the concentration ,the difference showing statistical significance (P< 0 .05);at the same time ,by detecting TRAIL expression level in the experimental group(1 × 10-5 mol/L ,1 × 10-4 mol/) ,the expression of TRAIL in the A549 cell supernate after ATRA treatment was increased .Conclusion ATRA has the significant anti-tumor effect on the lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549 with the concen-tration-time dependence;ATRA in lung cancer tissue may play its anti-tumor effect by inducing apoptosis ,which can provide the theoretical basis for the treatment of lung cancer .

This study aimed to evaluate emerging trends of drug resistance to nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) and nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) among 290 former blood donor HIV-1 infected patients in Hubei,China,from 2004 to 2006,all of whom had received anti-HIV-1 therapy.The presence of NRTI- and NNRTI-associated mutations were established by sequencing; genotypic and predicted phenotypic drug resistance were evaluated using HIVdb Program version 5.0.1 (http://hivdb.stanford.edu/pages/algs/HIVdb.html).Genotypic drug resistance analysis showed significant increases in percentages of patients carrying HIV-1 strains with M41L,T215Y/F,D67N,K103N,G190A/S,Y181C/F or L210W mutations.Of the variants' predicted phenotypic drug resistance,highly significant increases were detected in percentages of patients carrying HIV-1 with high resistance to zidovudine (AZT) or stavudine (D4T) in NRTIs,and to delavirdine (DLV),efavirenz (EFV) or nevirapine (NVP) in NNRTIs; intermediate resistance to abacavir (ABC),AZT,D4/T,didanosine (DDI) or tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) in NRTIs,and to etravirine (ETR) in NNRTIs; and low and potential low resistance to lamivudine (3TC),ABC,emtricitabine (FTC) or TDF in NRTIs,and to ETR in NNRTIs.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).Methods Clinical data of one case of PTLD,including clinical manifestations,diagnosis and treatment,were retrospectively analyzed.And the related literatures were reviewed.Results From January 2007 to November 2012,one case developed PTLD among 196 patients who were followed up after HSCT in the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University.The incidence of PTLD was 0.5%.Clinical manifestations of the patient were not typical,including frequent fever,multiple lymphadenopathy and multiple pulmonary nodules.The patient was diagnosed as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (B-DLCL) by pathological examination of the swollen lymph node.After withdrawal of immunosuppressants,the temperature returned to normal,and lymphadenopathy and pulmonary nodules disappeared completely.Conclusion PTLD is a severe complication of HSCT with distinctive morphologic and clinical characteristics.The origin of this disease may be associated with Epstein-Barr virus infection and imrnunosuppressive therapy.It needs the pathologic detection to make a definite diagnosis.Several different treatment strategies have been employed,and reduction of immunosuppressive therapy may lead to regression of PTLD.

This study aimed at exploring the effects of Guttiferone K (GUTK),a compound isolated from G.yunnanensis,on inhibiting the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells both in vitro and in vivo.MTT assay was used to detect the inhibitory effects of GUTK on the proliferation of five human pancreatic cancer cell lines.Western blot was adopted to detect the apoptosis-related protein expressions of Caspase-3,poly adenosinediphosphate-ribose polymerase (PARP) and Bcl-xL.For in vivo study,the human pancreatic cancer cell MIA PaCa-2 was orthotopically injected into the pancreatic tail of the orthotopic mice.One week later,GUTK was administered by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection every other day for 4 weeks.The volume and weight of the tumor tissue were measured.The protein expression level of cleaved caspase-3 in tumor tissue of all the groups was quantified by immunohistochemistry.As a result,it was found that GUTK effectively inhibited the proliferation of the five human pancreatic cancer cell lines at a low concentration.GUTK induced caspase-related apoptosis by triggering a series of events in MIA PaCa-2 cells including cleaved Caspase-3 and PARP activation,Bcl-xL down-regulation,and eventually cell death in a time and dose dependent manner.Furthermore,in vivo study revealed that intraperitoneal injection of GUTK significantly suppressed the growth of pancreatic cancer cells in the orthotopic mouse models,and the protein level of cleaved caspase-3 was increased in the GUTK and gemcitabine treated groups.It was concluded that GUTK induced apoptosis in human pancreatic cancer both in vitro and in vivo,and was potential to develop into a clinical anticancer agent.

[ABSTRACT]OBJECTIVETo investigate the relationship between upper airway MRI parameters and the severity of patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). Then the values of upper airway MRI parameters in waking state were assessed.METHODS The MRI upper airway parameters of 37 OSAHS patients and 18 nonsnoring normal subjects were measured and compared. Then data analysis were carried out to find out significant correlations between the MRI upper airway parameters and the severity of patients (the apnea hypopnea index, AHI; the lowest oxygen saturation, LSaO2; the oxygen desaturation index, ODI) with OSAHS.RESULTSThe correlation between cross-sectional areas and left-right diameter in the narrowest retropalatal region, the thickness of lateral pharyngeal wall, the length of the tongue, the length and thickness of the soft palate and the cross-sectional areas of the soft palate on midsagittal planes and severity of OSAHS were found (P<0.05).CONCLUSIONThe MRI upper airway parameters can be used in evaluating the severity of OSAHS in some ways, locating the obstruction sites and choosing the best treatment planning.
