Objective To study the effects of nifedipine and mibefradil on the cell proliferation,apoptosis,migration on the HEC-1 A in vitro and also study the mRNA and protein expression levels of the calcium channel alpha1 D( Cav1.3 ) and calcium channel alpha1G (Cav3.1 ) to discuss the effects of the calcium antagonists on the mechanisms of the endometrial carcinoma.Methods ( 1 ) Add 10 μmol/L nifedipine and mibefradil at 15 minutes before adding 10 μmol/L 17β-estradiol( 17β-E2 ) and 100 μmol/L b-estradiol-6-(O-carboxymethyl) oxime(E2-BSA) to the HEC-1A in different time including 0,5,15,30,60,120 minutes.Then the changes of mRNA and protein were detected by reverse transcripiton( RT)-PCR and western-blot.(2)Add 1.25,2.5,5,10,20,40,80,100 μmol/L nifedipine and mibefradil to the HEC-1 A at 24,48,96 hours to detect the cell proliferation by 3-( 4,5 )-dimethylthiahiazo (-z-y1)-3,5-diphenytetrazoliumromide (MTT) method.(3) Add 10 μmol/L nifedipine and mibefradil to the HEC-1A,then detect the apoptosis at 0 minute,30 minutes,1 hour,6 hours,24 hours and migration in vitro at 36 hours with transwell methods.Results ( 1 ) After the pretreated effect of the nifedipine before 17β-E2,the mRNA express of Cav1.3 genes was lowest at 15 minutes,and returned to the control level after 30 minutes.The protein level didn't change very much in 30 minutes,but rose after 60 minutes.The Cav3.1 genes mRNA express was lowest at 5 minutes,rose at 30 minutes and returned to the 0 minute level gradually.(2) After the pretreated effect of the nifedipine before E2-BSA,the Cav1.3 genes mRNA was lowest at 5 minutes and returned at 15 minutes.The protein level rose gradually in 15 minutes but reduced after 15 minutes.The Cav3.1 mRNA and protein level were reduced at every time point.(3) After the pretreated effect of the mibefradil before 17β-E2,there was no change of mRNA expression of Cav1.3 genes.The protein level rose at 15 and 60 minutes,there was no change in any other time.The Cav3.1 genes mRNA were gradually reduced and the protein level rose at 15 minutes,and there was no change in any other times.(4) After the pretreated effect of the mibefradil before E2-BSA,the mRNA and protein of Cav1.3 levels were reduced after 15 minutes.There was no mRNA expression of Cav3.1,while the protein level was lowest at 15 minutes.(5)Nifedipine and mibefradil affected HEC-1A proliferation depended on the different concentration and interval time points.There was significant difference than those in control group ( P < 0.05 ).( 6 ) There were statistical differences in apoptosis rate after adding nifedipine ( P < 0.05 ),while rose at mibefradil treated the same time ( 24 hours:8.41 ± 0.07,0 minute:3.74 ± 0.18 ; P < 0.05 ).(7) The numbers of stained cells after both nifedipine and mibefradil treated reduced more than control group.Conclusions ( 1 ) Nifedipine and mibefradil could inhibit both the effect of the estrogen on the L-type and T-type calcium channel in short time,meanwhile the mibefradil effects last long time. (2) The inhibited effect of the mibefradil on the proliferation,apoptosis and migration of HEC-1A cells in vitro is more significant than that by nifedidipine.

ObjectiveTo investigate the role of iNOS in the middle and late stage of pulmonary hypertension (PH) and the effect of L-Arginine(L-Arg) on these stage.MethodsThirty healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into five groups.All rats except those in control group were injected intraperitoneally (ip) with a single dose (50 mg/kg) of MCT to induce PH.Then the L3 and L5 groups were injected ip with 500 mg/kg L-Arg daily for 3 weeks and 5weeks respectively,the M3 and M5groups received a daily ip injection of the same amount of saline as L-Arg for 3 weeks and 5 weeks respectively; the same amount of saline was injected ip daily in control group for 5 weeks.Right ventricular systolic pressure(RVSP) was measured before lungs were excised for immunohistochemistry at the end of experiments. ResultsThe expressions of iNOS and elastin in M3 and M5 were higher compared to the control group,but L-Arg partly reduced the expressions of iNOS and elastin both at 3weeks and 5 weeks post-MCT.The reduction of eNOS expression in L3 and L5 groups were lower compared to M3 and M5 groups,but the eNOS expression in L3 and L5 groups were still lower than control group.ConclusionDuring the middle and late stage of PH,the expression of eNOS was decreased.The expression of iNOS was induced,which would produce numerous NO.However,these NO had no benefit on the development of PH.L-Arg could restore the balance of eNOS and iNOS,and could inhibit the development of PH,which may provide a new clues to explore the pathogenesis and treatment of PH.

Objective · To compare the prevalence of tobacco advertisement before and after implementation of the new edition of Advertising Law of the People's Republic of China and evaluate the effects of implementation of the new Advertising Law. Methods · Tobacco sales places, public places, and streets in Shanghai were randomly selected to observe tobacco advertisement and complete the survey. The survey was carried out in 10 districts of Shanghai in June 2015 with 10 tobacco sales places selected in each district, and in 4 districts of Shanghai in June 2016 with 25 tobacco sales places selected in each district. Sales places included convenient stores, tobacco stores, supermarkets, and kiosks. In addition, public transport waiting points, public transport vehicles, hospitals, shopping centers, restaurants, bars, and Internet cafes were selected into survey in 2016. Results · In 2016, the proportion of tobacco sales places having tobacco advertisement was lower than that in 2015, but the proportion of tobacco promotion behaviors was higher. In 2016, 128 public places and streets were investigated and only 1 had outdoor tobacco advertisement. Conclusion · The new edition of Advertising Law has significant effect on controlling tobacco advertisement, but tobacco sales places still have tobacco advertisement with various disguised promotion forms. Tobacco sales places have diversified business styles and minors often enter these places. It is recommended that a clear definition of disguised forms of tobacco advertisement should be made, tobacco advertisement at tobacco sales places needs to be supervised, the release of tobacco advertisement should be strictly reviewed, and existing tobacco advertisement should be severely punished, so as to prevent minors from exposing to tobacco advertisement and information luring smoking.

Objective To investigate thyroid hormone nuclear receptor expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and its relation with injury severity in patients with severe multiple trauma.Methods Twenty-eight patients with severe muhiple trauma and another 26 healthy subjects as control were enrolled in the study.At 2 days after injury,the levels of free triiodothyronine (FT3),free thyroxine (FT4) and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) in peripheral venous blood were determined by using immunoradiometry,and the expressions of mRNA of the thyroid nuclear receptors (TRα and TRβ) in PBMCs were measured by using real-time RT-PCR.Results FT3 concentration in peripheral venous blood was significantly decreased in patients with severe multiple trauma versus healthy subjects.Concurrently,the expressions of TR mRNA (TRα and TRβ) were significantly decreased in PBMCs of patients with severe multiple trauma compared with healthy subjects (TRα mRNA:3.86 ±0.54 vs.5.24 ± 1.17,P <0.05;TRβ mRNA:9.86±2.27 vs.13.57 ±2.45,P <0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that FT3 concentration and the expression of TRβ mRNA correlated negatively with injury severity score (ISS) in patients with severe multiple trauma (r=-0.445,-0.496,P=0.018,0.007).Conclusions These data provide the evidence of a lowered activity of the thyroid signaling pathway in PBMC and a significantly negative correlation between FT3 concentration and the expression of TRβ mRNA in respect of injury severity in patients with severe multiple trauma.Additional investigations are needed to further determine the roles of the thyroid signaling pathway in adverse outcomes in the wake of severe multiple trauma.
