Objective To investigate paclitaxel and ezrin-siRNA therapy for metastatic liver cancer.Methods Human metastatic liver cancer cells MHCC97-H were divided into four groups in vitro and in vivo,including control cells,exposure to paclitaxel alone,ezrin-siRNA alone,and the combination of paclitaxel and ezrin-siRNA.Nude mice lung lesions were formed by tail vein injection of tumor cells.The tumor cells'apoptosis rate,wound healing ability,the ability to cross an artificial membrane,and the numbers of metastatic lung lesions were measured.Results The apoptosis rate in normally cultured MHCC97-H tumor cells was 2.52％,compared to the other three groups at 11.66％,2.35％,7.38％ respectively.The wound healing ability was best in the negative control and weakest in cells treated with combination paclitaxel and ezrin-siRNA.The numbers of cells which could cross the artificial membrane in the negative,paclitaxel,ezrin-siRNA,and combination paclitaxel and ezrin-siRNA group were 52.5 ± 3.9,32.2 ± 3.2,26.6 ± 2.4,and 19.4 ± 1.1 respectively.The numbers of metastatic lung lesions in the nude mice (n =40) were 12.5 ±2.4,8.2 ± 1.5,7.0 ± 1.3,and 3.8 ± 0.3 respectively.Conclusions The ezrin-siRNA combined with paclitaxel therapy demonstrated a greater efficacy over single agent therapy for depressing liver cancer growth,motility,aggression,and metastasis in vitro and in vivo.

Objective To investigate the effect of intrathecal CLP257 on the bone cancer pain in rats.Methods Forty adult female Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 180-200 g,were divided into 4 groups (n=10 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group S),bone cancer pain group (group BCP),dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) group,and CLP257 group.Bone cancer pain was induced by inoculating Walker 256 mammary gland carcinoma cell suspension (about 1× 105cells) 10 μl into the medullary cavity of the left tibia.On 7th-9th days after establishment of the model,5％ DMSO 10 μl was injected intrathecally once a day in group DMSO,and 10 μg/μl CLP257 10 μl was injected intrathecally once a day in group CLP257.The mechanical paw withdrawal threshold (MWT) was measured on 1 day before establishment of the model (T0),on 1st-6th days after establishment of the model (T1-6),and at 4 h after intrathecal administration on 7th-9th days after establishment of the model (T7-9).After the last intrathecal administration,the L4-6 segments of the spinal cord were removed for determination of the expression of potassium chloride cotransporter 2 (KCC2) protein and mRNA by Western blot and fluorescent quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction,respectively.Results Compared with group S,the MWT was significantly decreased,and the expression of KCC2 protein and mRNA was down-regulated in BCP and DMSO groups,and the MWT was significantly decreased (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in the expression of KCC2 protein and mRNA in group CLP257 (P＞0.05).Compared with group BCP,the MWT was significantly increased,and the expression of KCC2 protein and mRNA was up-regulated in group CLP257 (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in group DMSO (P＞0.05).Conclusion Intrathecal CLP257 can attenuate the bone cancer pain in rats.

Tumor bone metastasis is one of the common complications of advanced tumor and one of the signs of poor prognosis.There are many targeted drugs for bone metastasis in the clinic,which play a very important role in the antitumor treatment and prevention of bone related events.Among them,zoledronic acid,a representative bisphosphonate drug,has been extensively studied.It has been found that zoledronic acid combined with other anti-tumor therapies can more effectively inhibit the occurrence of tumor and bone-related events.This article reviews the latest research on zoledronic acid combined with other antitumor methods to guide clinical use and provide research ideas.

OBJECTIVE: Our goal was to find whether inreversible function damage of saccule was exist and correlated in Meniere's patients with different audition. METHOD: Senenty-nine patients with unilateral Meniere's disease, who visited the Dizziness Diagnosis and Treatment Centre of the Second Military Medical University from January to July in 2015 were included. They were grouped as slightly audition damage group (41 cases), mildly-severely audition damage group(38 cases). Meanwhile 20 normal controls underwent the research. The cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potentials were conducted in symptom free period. RESULT: There was no significant difference of the C-VEMP inducing rate between slightly audition damage group and normal control group. While a statistically difference showed between mildly-severely audition damage group and normal control group or slightly audition damage group. P1, N1 latency had no statistically difference between three groups. The P1-N1 amplitude and asymmetric ratio had no difference between slightly audition damage group and normal control group, but had a statistically difference between mildly-severely audition damage group and slightly audition damage group, normal control group. CONCLUSION The function of saccule in Meniere's patients decreased with the aggravation of audition damage.

Aim To investigate the changes in the ex-pression of WNK1 in spinal cord of a rat model with bone cancer pain. Methods Female SD rats, weig-hing 170 ~200 g, were randomly divided into three groups:normal control group (group C, n=3), sham operation group ( group S, n =3 ) and bone cancer pain group ( group BCP, n =24 ) . Group C was not given any treatment, and group S was injected into the bone marrow of left tibia with 5 μl PBS solution while group BCP with 5 μl WALKER 256 mammary gland cancer cell suspension (approximately 1 × 105 cells). Mechanical paw withdrawal threshold ( MWT ) was measured at d1 before inoculation ( baseline) and d3, 6,9,10,11,12 after inoculation. Group S and C were sacrificed at d 12 while group BCP at d 3 ,6 ,9 ,12 after inoculation and spinal cord ( L4~6 ) were removed at different time points for detection of WNK1 mRNA ex-pression by qRT-PCR and WNK1 protein expression by Western blot. Results Compared with group C and S,group BCP’ s MWT started to decrease since d 3 ( P<0. 05 ) . The mRNA expression of WNK1 in spinal cord was up-regulated(P<0. 05) from d 3 showing an increasing trend over time until d 9 ( peak ) and then down-regulated to d 12 ( P >0. 05 ) while the protein expression upregulated since d6 and also showed an in-creasing trend to d 12 ( P<0. 01 ) . Conclusion The expression of WNK1 in spinal cord of a rat model with bone cancer pain increased abnormally, which may be involved in the occurrence and maintenance of a rat model with bone cancer pain.

Objective: To investigate the effect of clopidogrel on antiplatelet therapy in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) combining chronic kidney disease (CKD) in order to provide a medication reference in clinical practice. Methods: We retrospectively investigated 423 CAD patients with coronary angiography (CAG) conifrmed diagnosis in our hospital from 2014-01 to 2014-09. According to the value of eGFR, the patients were classiifed into 2 groups:CAD+ CKD- group,n=257 patients with eGFR ≥ 90 ml/(min?1.73 m2), including 182 male and 75 female at the mean age of (60.39 ± 11.09) years, and CAD+CKD+ group,n=166 patients with eGFR < 90 ml/(min?1.73 m2), including 107 male and 59 female at the mean age of (65.80 ± 10.84) years. The patients were treated either by aspirin 0.1 g/d with clopidogrel 75 mg/d for at least 7 days, or by PCI operation with the load of aspirin 0.3g and clopidogrel 300 mg. The thrombelastography was conducted to examine and compare the inhibitory rates of ADP receptor and arachidonic acid (AA) pathway in platelet between 2 groups. Results: The inhibitory rate of platelet ADP receptor in CAD+CKD- group (64.9 ± 27.2) % was higher than that in CAD+CKD+ group (56.6 ± 27.4) %,P=0.039. Based on clinical standard of platelet’s ADP and AA inhibitory rates, in CAD+CKD- group, there were 24/257 (9.4%) of patients only insensitive to clopidogrel, in comparison with 25 (9.7%) of patients only insensitive to aspirin,P=0.99. While in CAD+CKD+ group, there were 21/166 (12.7%) of patients only insensitive to clopidogrel, in comparison with 11 (6.6%) of patients only insensitive to aspirin,P= 0.045. Conclusion: Clopidogrel has decreased effect on anti-platelet therapy in CAD patients combining with CKD, such patients have reduced sensitivity to relevant medication.
