Chinese Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism 2017;33(4):351-354
Neovascularization plays an essential role in the process of renovation in tissue damage,tumor growth, and hormones action. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is one of the basic hormones that regulate the serum calcium, phosphorus, and bone metabolism. In recent years, studies involving the neovascularization-mediated effects of PTH on metabolism are becoming more and more popular and wider. Based on recent researches, the purpose of this paper is to summarize the changes of angiogenesis while PTH interacts with its target organs, especially interacts with osseous tissue.

Acta Anatomica Sinica 1953;0(01):-
Objective To study the expression site and the role of low-affinity nerve growth factor receptor(P75) in hepatic stellate cells(HSCs) of fibrotic human and rat liver.Methods Left lobe of liver was removed from CCl-4-induced rats fibrosis model and human fibrotic tissue sample was taken from liver puncture.The tissue specimen was routinely paraffin embedded and expression of P75 was detected by histochemical staining using polyclonal antibody against P75.Additionally,HSCs was cultivated and P75 was immunochemically assayed for P75 binding activity. Results P75 was seen abundantly on cell membrane of the cultured HSCs.In the fibrotic tissue of rat liver as well as human fibrotic liver P75 was also positively expressed.Similarly,P75 was found mainly a hepatocye surface in histochemical staining.P75 was not seen by histochemical staining in the normal tissue of human and rat liver.Conclusion P75 used as a new target for the treatment of hepatic fibrosis.
10. Effects of ginsenoside Rg3 on the invasion and metastasis of mouse melanoma cell line B16 as well as the expression of MMP-9
Tumor 2011;31(2):117-121
Objective: To observe the effects of ginsenoside Rg3 on the invasive and metastatic potentials of mouse melanomas B16 cells in vitro and in vivo, as well as the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), and to investigate the underlying mechanisms. Methods: The grafted melanoma and its spontaneous lung metastasis model in mice was established by transplanting with B16 cells. The number of metastatic lesions in the lung was calculated, and the expression of MMP-9 in melanoma tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry, after intraperitoneal injection of ginsenoside Rg3 or 0.9% NaCl solution (as the control). The invasive ability of B16 cells treated with ginsenoside Rg3 was detected by invasion assay, and the expression of MMP-9 was evaluated by immunocytochemistry in vitro. Results: Compared with the control group, the numbers of metastatic lesions in the lung were all decreased in three ginsenoside Rg3 (0.3, 1.0 and 3.0 mg/kg)-treated groups, and the expression levels of MMP-9 in tumor tissues were also decreased in these three groups ( P<0.05). The numbers of B16 cells invading through artificial basal membrane were both fewer in ginsenoside Rg3 (2.5 and 5.0 μg/mL)-treated groups than those in the control group ( P<0.01), in vitro. Moreover, 5.0 μg/mL ginseno-side Rg3 inhibited the expression level of MMP-9 in B16 cells. Conclusion: Ginsenoside Rg3 can obviously inhibit the lung metastasis of melanoma in mice, and this inhibitory effect may be due to suppressing the invasive ability of B16 cells as well as the expression level of MMP-9.
