Background and purpose:MiR-224 is overexpressed in hepatocellular carcinoma, and participate in invasion and metastasis of cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of miR-224 antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) on the proliferation and apoptosis of Hep3B cells.Methods:After transfection with miR-224 ASO, and detecting the miR-224 mRNA expression of Hep3B cells by real-time quantitative PCR; the miR-224 expression in Hep3B cells was measured and cell proliferation was analyzed by MTT assay and the colony formation experimentin vitro andin vivo. The cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry.Results:Compared with the control group, miR-224 ASO significantly reduced the miR-224 mRNA expression in the Hep3B cell(P<0.05), MTT assay results showed that Hep3B cells survived rate decreased greatly after transfection with miR-224 ASO. Clone formation assay revealed that the colony formation rate in miR-224 ASO group was significantly lower than that in the control group.In vivo study further confirmed that miR-224 ASO could inhibit the proliferation of Hep3B cells,and miR-224 ASO group grew substantially slow compared with the negative control. Flow cytometry indicated that miR-224 ASO group promoted apoptosis significantly.Conclusion:miR-224 was overexpressed in Hep3B cells. Reducing the expression of miR-224 can effectively inhibit the growth of Hep3B cells and promote apoptosis. miR-224 may become a new target for the regulation of gene expression in hepatocellular carcinoma.

BACKGROUND: A new material of porous carbonated hydroxyapatite cement (PCHC) is discovered using foaming technique.The new material characterizes original solidification and forms porous structure.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the biomechanical effect of PCHC on repairing cancellous bone defect.METHODS: Among 30 New Land rabbits, 25 ones were considered as surgery group, whose bilateral condyles of femur was used to establish bone defect model (5.5 mm diameter and 12 mm depth). PCHC was implanted into the left side, which was considered as the experimental group, and carbonated hydroxyapatite cement (CHC) was implanted into the right side, which was considered as the control group. Another 5 rabbits were used as normal mechanical control group. Both PCHC and CHC were dip in simulated body fluid (SBF) to test mechanical intension. PCHC and CHC were then implanted into muscles of back in the surgery group. Rabbits Were-sacrificed after 2, 4, 8, 12, and 16 weeks postoperatively. Mechanical analysis was tested following intra-bone and intramuscular implantation, and compressive strength was then tested following dipping into SBF.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: PCHC: Intra-bone mechanical strength was lower at 2 weeks, the lowest at 4 weeks, but then closed to intension of normal cancellated bone at 8 weeks, higher than normal cancellated bone at 12 weeks, and recovered to the level of normal cancellated bone at 16 weeks. CHC: Intra-bone strength was higher than that of PCHC at 2 weeks, decreased at 4 weeks, gradually increased at 8, 12, and 16 weeks, but still lower than intension of normal cancallated bone. Compressive strength of both PCHC and CHC was not changed following dipping in SBF; however, compressive strength was changed remarkably following intramuscular implantation. The results demonstrated that PCHC characterized by immobilization in situ and mechanical supporting. Thus it could be used for one kind of bone substitute material to repair the bone defect.

Objective]To assess the effects and mechanism of triptolide(TPL)on cardiac remodeling in chronic heart failure (CHF)rats.[Methods]Thirty-two Wistar rats were divided into four groups of eight:Control group,isoprenaline(Iso)group,TPL group(Iso+TPL)and captopril group(Iso+Cap). CHF rat model was induced by Iso. In TPL and Cap group,TPL(20μg/kg·d)and Cap(15 mg/kg·d)were administrated to CHF rats for six weeks. Left ventricular internal diameter at end-diastole(LVIDd)and left ventricular internal diameter at end-systole (LVIDs)were detected. Histopathological changes of myocardial tissues of rats were evaluated byMasson staining and immunohistochemical staining of type Ⅰcollagen. Ventricular weight/body weight ratio(VW/BW), collagen volume fraction(CVF),perivascular collagen volume area(PVCA)of myocardial tissues were calculated. With real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot,the protein and mRNA levels of phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome ten(PTEN)were detected.[Results]Compared to the Iso group,the levels of LVIDs,LVIDd,VW/BW,CVF and PVCA reduced in TPL and Cap group. TPL and Cap can alleviate the myocardial fibrosis in CHF rats. The expression of PTEN protein and mRNA increased markedly in the TPL or Cap treated group.[Conclusion]TPL can attenuate cardiac remodeling in Iso-induced CHF rats. The potential mechanism may be highly associated with the up-regulating of PTEN signaling pathway.
