Objective To study the proliferation promoting effect on osteoblast cells induced by sodium orthovanadate and whether nitric oxide (NO) was involved in this process. Methods MTT assay was employed to determine cell proliferation and its inhibition. The level of NO was measured by enzyme reduction method. Results The MTT values of MC3T3-E1 cells under the 2.5,5.0,10.0 ?mol/L of sodium orthovanadate were 0.3380?0.0045, 0.3400?0.0141, 0.3840?0.0313 respectively, which were higher than in control group (0.2540?0.0167)(P

Objective To study the therapeutic effect on murine allergic asthma with recombinant Bla g 2(rBla g 2) allergen and its possible mechanism.Methods Eighteen BALB/C mice were randomly divided into three groups:normal control group(group A) , asthma model group(group B) , and recombinant protein rBlag2 treatment group(group C).Mice in groups B and C were subcutaneously immunized weekly with rBla g 2(50 mg) formulated in Al(OH)3 adjuvant for three weeks.Group A received only adjuvant emulsified with normal saline.Two weeks after the last inoculation, mice in group C were administered each with rBla g 2(100 mg) /dose, and groups A and B were given PBS.All the mice received eight doses at 2-day intervals.One week after the last immunotherapy, mice in groups B and C were intranasally challenged with 50 mg rBla g 2 daily for seven days, while mice in group A received PBS.Twenty-four hours after the challenge, the following items were examined:airway hyperresponsiveness of mice, total cellular score and cell classification in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) , level of rBla g 2-specific IgE and IgG2a in serum, lung inflammation by HE stain, and Bcl-2 expression of eosinophils of lung by immunohistochemistry.Results Compared with group B, group C showed a decreased Penh value of airway hyperresponsiveness(P

AIM: To observe the growthinhibiting cell cycle-modifying and apoptosis-inducing effects of satraplatin on human ovarian carcinoma cell line A2780, and to explore its possible mechanism. METHODS: The effect of satraplatin on A2780 cells proliferation was determined using MTT, and the change in cell cycle was analyzed using PI staining. Morphologic change was visualized by fluorescence and electron microscopy. AnnexinV-FITC/PI staining multiparameter flow cytometry and immuno- histochemical TUNEL assay were used to detect apoptotic cells. The activity of caspase-3 and the effect of pan-caspase inhibitor on cell viability were measured as well. RESULTS: The growthinhibiting and apoptosis-inducing effects of satraplatin were dose-dependent and similar to those of cisplatin. Satraplatin mainly caused A2780 cell accumulation in S phase accompanied by minor accumulation in G2/M phase. Cells treated with satraplatin exhibited typical morphology of apoptosis. Satraplatin-induced increase in caspase-3 activity of A2780 cells was concentration-dependent. The viability of A2780 cells was affected by pan-caspase inhibitor z-VAD-fmk in a dose-dependent manner under certain concentration of z-VAD-fmk. CONCLUSION: Satraplatin-induced apoptosis in A2780 in vitro was observed. Caspase-dependent and independent pathways were involved in apoptosis induced by satraplatin, and the latter included caspase-3 dependent and non-caspase-3 dependent pathways.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of low dose testosterone undecanonate (TU) and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) on serum androgen levels in male adult rabbits postinfarction congestive heart failure (CHF) model.Methods48 male 4~5 months old New Zealand rabbits were randomly assigned to ligation of first branch of left coronary artery (n=40) or sham operation (n=8). 3 weeks later, 30 survived model rabbits were randomly treated with TU 3 mg/kg per 2 weeks intramuscular injection (TU group, n=10), DHEA 3 mg/kg/d oral (DHEA group, n=10) or placebo (placebo group, n=10) for 3 months. Serum androgen changes were recorded at 0th, 3rd and 15th week.ResultsAt 3rd week after peration, left ventricular ejection fraction of model animals was 47.6±4.5% lower than that of the sham group (66.7±5.8%) (P<0.05). Serum free testosterone level of model animals returned to normal ranges after low dose TU or DHEA treatment, otherwise DHEAS level was higher than the sham group (P<0.05).ConclusionThe doses used in this research reached physiological dosage to male adult rabbits in postinfarction CHF model.

Objective To investigate the whole genomic expression profiles of chronic atrophic gastritis with interleukin(IL)-1β-31CC/-511TT genotype as measured by oligonucleotide microarray technique.Methods Genomic RNA was extracted from gastric biopsies of 12 patients with chronic atrophic gastritis(6 with IL-1β-31CC/-511TT and 6 with IL-1β-31TT/-511CC).The genomic profiles of IL-1β gene polymorphisms 31CC/-511TT and 31TT/-511CC were compared and tested for differential expressed genes associated with 31CC/-511TT using Agilent human whole genomic oligonucleotide microarrays.The results were further analyzed in terms of gene ontology(GO).Results There were 200 differentially expressed genes associated with IL-1β-31CC/-511TT,159 of which were up-regulated and 41 were down-regulated.These genes mainly involved in macromolecule metabolic process,post-translational protein modification,ubiquitin cycle,and protein kinase cascade.Five genes had biological activities,one of which was down-regulated gene(PCSK5)and 4 were upregulated genes(PRKCA,NPLOC4,TRIB3 and MAPKAPK3).Conclusions The chronic atrophic gastritis with IL-1β-31CC/-511TT genotype has molecular phenotypes which is associated with malignance and inflammation.These individuals are needed more intensive preemptive treatment and dynamic surveillance.

Objective To provide reference and ideas for information service in hospital library by analyzing the influencing factors for its service satisfaction.Methods The satisfaction of hospitalized patients for information service was investigated.The characteristics of patients,their requirements for information service and the influencing factors for their satisfaction were analyzed by logistic regression analysis.Their satisfaction for information service was assessed according to the IPA method and analyzed using the SPSS19.0.P<0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results Health information was provided for 221 patients.No significant difference was found in sex,age,education level between the importance of information service and the influence of satisfaction for information service (P>0.05).The importance of information service and the satisfaction of patients for information service were rather high.IPA analysis showed that the patients considered high the importance of library-provided personal bibliography and departments-provided health pamphlets with a low satisfaction,which should thus be solved.Conclusion The satisfaction of patients for information service is good.However,the importance of library-provided personal bibliography and departments-provided health pamphlets is high and the satisfaction for them is low.It is thus necessary for librarians to improve their service and encourage more medical staff to participate in information service for patients.

Objects To investigate the correlation of the single nucleotide polymorphism ( SNP) of clopidogrel related gene CYP2C19, ABCB1, PON1 to the occurrence of clopidogrel resistance ( CR) and TEG among patients after percutaneous coronary intervention.Methods A total of 299 patients after PCI were enrolled from April 2015 to December 2015.It genotyped the CYP2C19(rs4244285,rs4986893)ABCB1 ( rs1045642 ) and PON1 ( rs662 ) gene, measured clopidogrel response by TEG.Accordingly, all the enrolled 299 patients were then divided into CR group (n=17) +non-CR (NCR) group (n=282) or CLR group (n=54) +non-CR (NCR) group (n=245) by TEG(%).All the patients were divided into EM、IM and PM group by CYP2C19 genotype.The age of patient in CR (71.1 ±11.1) years old is higher than NCR (65.02 ±10.51) years old (t=2.559, P<0.05).Results CYP2C19 PM was associated with decreased of TEG(ADP) (Z=-2.065, P=0.039), while it was not related to the age of patient(Z=0.405,P>0.05).There was no significant difference between CR(χ2 =0.175,P=0.916) CLR(χ2 =1.589,P=0.452)and the level of TEG(ADP) (Z=-0.030,P=0.976) in PON1(rs662) polymorphism.There was no significant difference between CR(χ2 =1.722,P=0.423) CLR(χ2 =0.176,P=0.916) and the level of TEG(ADP) (Z=-0.331,P=0.741) in ABCB1(rs1045642) polymorphism.Conclusions CYP2C19 PM is associated with decreased of TEG(ADP).It is considered that no correlation exists between ABCB1(rs1045642) and PON1(rs662) polymorphism and clopidogrel resistance in patients with coronary heart diseases.The loss of function of ABCB1 ( rs1045642 ) and PON1 ( rs662 ) is not associated with decreased of TEG(ADP) in CYP2C19 PM patients.
