Objective To study the effect of Src tyrosine kinase inhibition on subcutaneously transplanted tumor of human lung adenocarcinoma in mice and its mechanism. Methods For the subcutaneously transplanted tumor model, A549 cells or PC-9 cells were inoculated into SCID mice by subcutaneous injection. Immunohistochemistry was used to show the effect of Src tyrosine kinase inhibition on proliferation index (Ki-67 staining) and microvessel density (CD31 staining) of subcutaneously transplanted tumor of human lung adenocarcinoma in mice. Results Subcutaneously transplanted tumor of PC-9 cells was sensitive to src tyrosine kinase inhibitor. There was significant difference between treatment group and control group (P <0.01). There was significant difference between the two treatment group too (P <0.01). Stopping treatment for 1 week, the inhibition rate of tumor growth were 33.19 % and 84.79 % in 10 mg·kg-1·d-1 and 50 mg·kg-1·d-1 treatment group, respectively. The same treatment was less effective to subcutaneous tumors produced by A549 cells. Treatment with 50 mg·kg-1·d-1 Src tyrosine kinase inhibitor significantly reduced the proliferation index of subcutaneously transplanted tumor produced by PC-9 cells (P<0.01) and tended to reduce the proliferation index of subcutaneously transplanted tumor produced by A549 cells (P >0.05). Treatment with 50 mg·kg-1·d-1 Src tyrosine kinase inhibitor significantly reduced micro vascular density in both PC-9 and A549 induced subcutaneous tumors (P <0.05). Conclusion Inhibition of Src tyrosine kinase could suppress the progression of subcutaneously transplanted tumor, not only by the inhibition of cell proliferation of lung adenocarcinoma cells directly, but also by the inhibition of angiogenesis indirectly.

Objective:To compare the difference of serum levels of M-phospholipaseA2 receptor ( PLA2R) antibodies in patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy(IMN) detected by two different methods and evaluate the diagnostic value of two methods. Methods:Patients diagnosed as membranous nephropathy and other diseases with biopsy-proven from december 2014 to october 2015 in Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University were enrolled and devided into IMN group and non-IMN group. The serum levels of anti-PLA2R antibody were detected by both indirect immunofluorescence assay(IFA) and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). Results:The sensitivity of IFA and ELISA in IMN were 71. 3% and 68. 5%,and the specificities of two methods were the same as 100%. The area under ROC curves of anti-PLA2R antibody for IMN diagnosis were 0. 860 and 0. 839. The diagnostic value of IFA and ELISA was no statistically significant differences in IMN ( P>0. 05 ) , and the consistency of two methods was better (κ=0. 876). The IMN patients of positive anti-PLA2R antibody be susceptible to the low level of serum albumin (P<0. 05). The higher levels of PLA2R antibody were linked with the worse hypoproteinemia and the higher rate of nephrotic-range proteinuria in IMN patients. Conclusion:Two methods of detecting sera PLA2R antibody have higher sensitivity and specificity,so the sera anti-PLA2R antibody was a better biomarker in the diagnosis of idiopathic membranous nephropathy.
