Objective To determine the effect of apigenin on inducing apoptosis and inhibiting proliferation of non-small cell lung cancer cell line NCI-H1650. Methods NCI-H1650 cell line was cultured routinely in vitro, with blank control group and different concentrations of apigenin (10, 20, 40, 80 μmol?L-1). The blank control group was RPMI-1640 solution without apigenin. Cell proliferation was detected by MTT. Hoechst 33258 was applied to observe morphological changes of the apoptotic cells after treatment of different concentrations of apigenin. Flow cytometry AnnexinV-FITC/PI double staining method was used to determine cell apoptosis rate. The expression levels of apoptosis-related signaling molecules Bax and Bcl-2 protein were performed by Western blotting. Results MTT showed that apigenin inhibited proliferation of NCI-H1650 cell line in a concentration-and time-dependent manner (P<0.01).Hoechst 33258 nuclear staining showed typical characteristics of apoptosis in certain concentration-dependent manner, such as nuclear condensation and appearance of apoptotic bodies. In addition, the results of flow cytometry staining indicated that the apoptotic rate of NCI-H1650 cells cultured with blank control group and different concentrations of apigenin (10, 20, 40, 80 μmol?L-1) for 48 h was (5.00±0.33)%, (18.05±4.67)%, (21.48± 1.95)%, (43.24±1.11)%, (66.23±3.65)%, respectively (P<0.01).Western blotting results showed that the expression levels of Bax increased with increasing of the drug concentration, but Bcl-2 decreased with increasing of the drug concentration. Conclusion Apigenin can inhibit the proliferation and induce apoptosis of NCI-H1650 cells in non-small cell lung cancer. Mechanisms may be related to increase of the expression of apoptosis related protein Bax and decrease of the expression of anti apoptosis protein Bcl-2.

BACKGROUND: Axial-flow blood pump is a main pump for ventricle assistance. Previous researches demonstrate that poor hemocompatibility of blood pump is an important factor for hemolysis and thrombus.OBJ ECTTVE: To design an axial-flow blood pump based on previous kinds of blood pumps through changing whole appearance and impeller shape of the pump by using Computer-Aided Design CAD) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), and manufacture it successfully.DESIGN: Rationality of theoretical design was verified by practical tests.SETTTNG: Beijing Anzhen Hospital of Capital University of Medical Sciences Department of Biomedical Engineering,Beijing Institute of Heart, lung and Blood Vessel Diseases; the Faurteenth Institute of China-Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation.MATERIALS: Body of blood pump and impeller were titanium alligation, and shaft bearing was ceramic. Test in vitro was accorded to artificial ventricular assist device which was provided by Department of Biomedical Engineering, Beijing Anzhen Hospital of Capital University of Medical Sciences. Experimental goats were provided by Experimental Animal Center, Beijing Anzhen Hospital of Capital University of Medical Sciences.METHODS: Since the beginning of 2005, a model of axial flow blood pump was designed in the 14th Institute of China-Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation base on decreasing shearing force and circulating dead bands. In the process, CAD and CFD were used to generate the geometrical data document of pump's structure, which included the figures of pump's body, shape and number of impeller's vanes, the structure and position of the guide vanes, and the size of impeller's screw-pitch. And then, NC machine tool was used for shaping. Finally, axial-flow blood pump was fixed on artificial ventricular assist device which was provided by Department of Biomedical Engineering, Beijing Anzhen Hospital of Capital University of Medical Sciences. The pump's hemodynamic output was 5 L/min and the average pressure was 13.3 kPa under the mixture of glycerin and water and fresh anticoagulation goat blood. The samples were collected at every one half hour during pumps being pumping for 4 hours. According to testing pressure output of blood pump, normalized index of hemolysis (NIH) was used to reflect content of free hemoglobin in plasma, observe thrombogenesis in pump and verify pump's hemodynamic output and vascular damaging degree.RESULTS: Shaped axial-flow blood pump included body, impeller, guide vanes, ceramic shaft bearing, export and import. The volume was 63 mL. Experimental results in vitro indicated that when the rotation speed of blood pump was 10 000 r/min, its pressure and flow output were 21.01 kPa and 6.0 L/min. The hemodynamic output might satisfy for left ventricular assistance. Surface temperature did not change obviously during successive rotation. The calculation indicated that most parts in blood pump showed a streaming flow. The mean NIH was (0.047±0.017) g/100 L, which was less than that of previous pumps; while, thrombogenesis was not observed in blood pump.CONCLUSTON: Axial-flow blood pump designed by using CAD and CFD can not only satisfy for the hemodynamics of a left ventricular assistant devices, but also the blood damage is milder than previous pumps. Therefore, axial-flow blood pump improves blood compatibility.

OBJECTIVE:To study the effects of different penetration enhancers on in vitro transdermal permeation of Flavaspidic acid BB cream. METHODS :Flavaspidic acid BB cream was prepared ,containing 11 kinds of different penetration enhancers as 1% azone,2% azone,3% azone,4% azone,1% menthol,1% propylene glycol ,1% oleic acid ,1% azone+1% menthol,1% azone+1% propanediol,1% azone+1% oleic acid or 1% menthol+1% propanediol. Modified Franz diffusion cell was adopted using abdominal skin of isolated male rat as transdermal barrier. The content of flavaspidic acid BB was determined by UPLC. The accumulative transdermal amount (Q24 h)and percutaneous permeability (Jss)within 24 h were calculated ;and compared with Flavaspidic acid BB cream without transdermal enhancer ,the enhancement ratio (ER)was calculated.

The laterodorsal tegmentum (LDT) is a brain structure involved in distinct behaviors including arousal, reward, and innate fear. How environmental stimuli and top-down control from high-order sensory and limbic cortical areas converge and coordinate in this region to modulate diverse behavioral outputs remains unclear. Using a modified rabies virus, we applied monosynaptic retrograde tracing to the whole brain to examine the LDT cell type specific upstream nuclei. The LDT received very strong midbrain and hindbrain afferents and moderate cortical and hypothalamic innervation but weak connections to the thalamus. The main projection neurons from cortical areas were restricted to the limbic lobe, including the ventral orbital cortex (VO), prelimbic, and cingulate cortices. Although different cell populations received qualitatively similar inputs, primarily via afferents from the periaqueductal gray area, superior colliculus, and the LDT itself, parvalbumin-positive (PV) GABAergic cells received preferential projections from local LDT neurons. With regard to the different subtypes of GABAergic cells, a considerable number of nuclei, including those of the ventral tegmental area, central amygdaloid nucleus, and VO, made significantly greater inputs to somatostatin-positive cells than to PV cells. Diverse inputs to the LDT on a system-wide level were revealed.
