Aim To investigate the effects of chloride channel blockers on the apoptosis of RIN-m? cells of pancreatic islet induced by H2O2.Methods The apoptotic model was made by H2O2 exposed for six hours with a concentration of 500 ?mol?L-1.The chloride channel blockers:DIDS,NPPB and NFA were administered to pretreat the samples respectively.The cell viability,morphological changes,and apoptosis rate were observed.Results Chloride channel blockers alone have no marked effects on the cell viability of RIN-m? cell.However,they elevated the cell viability of RIN-m?cell disposed of by H2O2.Compared to H2O2 group,the groups of DIDS +H2O2,NPPB+ H2O2 and NFA+H2O2 have significant difference in cell viability and apoptosis rate(P

Cobra venom factor (CVF), separated from the cobra venoms, is an acidic glucoproteins with anticomplementory activity. The combination of CVF with factor B in the blood produces a stable C3 and C5 converterase resulting in complement depletion by activating complement continually. There are many studies on it, such as inflammation, autoimmune disease, xenotransplantation, anti-tumor, etc. CVF is also an important tool drug for the study of complement role in the pathophysiological development of diseases.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the early changes of ECG,cTnⅠ,LDH,α-HBDH and CKMB in patients with anthra-cyclines chemotherapy-induced heart damage after breast cancer surgery,and to explore their significances in the diagnosis of early heart damage. METHODS:Medical information of 152 cases of anthracyclines chemotherapy after breast cancer surgery in our hos-pital during Jan. 2015-Jun. 2016 were analyzed retrospectively. According to diagnosis criteria of drug-induced cardiotoxicity,the occurrence of heart damage was evaluated during hospitalization and 1-year follow-up. According to evaluation results,those pa-tients were divided into heart damage group(50 cases)and control group(102 cases). The early changes of ECG,cTnⅠ,LDH, CKMB and α-HBDH were analyzed before chemotherapy(T0),24 h after first chemotherapy(T1),24 h after second chemothera-py(T2),24 h after forth chemotherapy. RESULTS:At T1,T2,T3,the proprotion of ECG abnormalities in heart damage group was significantly higher than control group;the serum levels of cTnⅠ,LDH,CKMB andα-HBDH in heart damage group were signifi-cantly higher than control group, with statistical significance (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:For anthracyclines chemotherapy drugs-induced heart damage after breast cancer surgery,early regular monitoring of ECG,cTnⅠ,LDH,CKMB and α-HBDH can improve the efficiency of early diagnosis of heart damage,and improve prognosis.

OBJECTIVE: To establish a proper experimental model of bone cancer pain in rat for acupuncture research, and observe the pain-relieving effect of electroacupuncture (EA) and/or Celebrex on bone cancer pain in rats. METHODS: The rat model of bone cancer pain was established by percutaneous direct puncture technique and inoculating the rat mammary gland carcinoma cells Walker 256 into tibial medullary cavity directly, and evaluated by detecting the bone tumor growth and mechanical allodynia. The effects of daily EA treatment and/or Celebrex treatment on the rat mechanical allodynia after intratibial Walker 256 inoculation was observed in this study. RESULTS: Significant mechanical allodynia in ipsilateral hind paw and tumor growth in proximal end of tibial bone of rats in the untreated group were observed after intratibial Walker 256 inoculation. The mechanical allodynia thresholds in rats that received EA or 5 mg/(kg.d) Celebrex treatment showed no significant difference as compared with that of rats in the untreated group. However, the mechanical allodynia thresholds of rats in 10 mg/(kg.d) Celebrex group showed significant increase after 22- and 26-day treatment as compared with that in the methyl cellulose (MC) group. There was significant difference between rats with EA combined with 5 mg/(kg.d) Celebrex treatment and rats in the untreated group after 10-, 18- and 23-day treatment. CONCLUSION: EA and 5 mg/(kg.d) Celebrex have synergistic effect on pain relieving and their combined use may enhance the analgesic effect on bone cancer pain.

Objective To investigate the correlation of the expression of high mobility group protein B1 (HMGB1) and blood-borne metastasis in patients with pancreatic carcinoma. Methods The serum HMGB1 levels were determined by Western blot analysis in 68 patients with pancreatic cancer, 18 patients with chronic pancreatitis and 21 healthy controls. Among the 68 patients with pancreatic cancer, the serum HMGB1 levels of 37 patients before and after operation were compared. The expression of HMGB1 and CD31 were detected by immunohistochemistry in 67 patients with pancreatic carcinoma. Results The serum HMGB1 levels in patients with pancreatic cancer was (119.7±54.5) ng/ml, which was significantly higher than (40.2±25.5) ng/ml in chronic pancreatitis (P<0.001) and (13.1±4.3) ng/ml in healthy control (P< 0.001). The serum HMGB1 levels in patients with pancreatic cancer before operation was (120.2±8.2) ng/ml, which was significantly higher than (69.3±5.1) ng/ml after operation (P <0.001). The expression rate of HMGB1 in pancreatic cancer tissues was 43.6%. The expression of HMGB1 were significantly related with tumor differentiation, TNM stage, blood-borne metastasis, and vascular density(P <0.01). The HMGB1 positive tumor cells were adjacent to the blood vessels with lumen, and the rate of HMGB1 expression in intravascular tumor cells was 71%. Conclusions The HMGB1 was highly expressed in pancreatic cancer tissues. HMGB1 expression positive pancreatic carcinoma cells were prone to invade blood vessels with lumen which may be related to blood-borne metastasis in pancreatic cancer.
