Objective To investigate the expression of transcription factor Oct 4 in gastric carcinoma and its effects on gastric cancer cell proliferation and apoptosis after Oct 4 gene interfered by lentivirus vector.Methods Real time PCR and Western blot were used to observe the expression of Oct 4 in different differentiated gastric cancer cell lines.Gastric cancer cell lines with high expression of Oct 4 was cultured and infected by siRNA-Oct 4-lentivirus vector.Cell proliferation and apoptosis were observed after Oct 4 gene was interfered.Results Oct 4 was highly expressed in poorly and moderately differentiated gastric cancer cells.Gene interfered with siRNA inhibits the expression of Oct 4 in gastric cancer cells and show significant effects on cell proliferation and mobility as well as apoptosis after down-regulation of Oct 4.Condusions Oct 4 expression is in close relationship with gastric cancer cell proliferation and invasive ability.

Objective To evaluate the growth inhibition of human gastric carcinoma cell lines SGC 7901 in vitro and the expression of bcl-2, bcl 2l12 and bax with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). Methods The effect of DHA and 5-FU was measured by trypan blue, and the interaction between two agents was judged by combination index (CI). Cells were observed by inverted microscope. Flow cytometry was used for analysis of apoptosis by PI staining and Annexin-V/PI. RT-PCR was used to analyze the levels of bcl-2, bcl 2l12 and bax mRNA. Results DHA significantly inhibited the growth of SGC 7901 cells in a dose- and time-dependent way ( P < 0. 05 ), the IC50 of 24 h and 48 h was 67. 81 μg/ml and 45.76 μg/ml, and a strong synergism was found in the combination of DHA and 5-FU (CI < 1 ,P <0. 01 ). Treated by DHA and 5-FU for 48 h, cells became sparse under inverted microscope. DHA or 5-FU was able to induce apoptosis and the effect became even more significant by the combination of DHA and 5-FU. Cells were holted in phase of G01/G1 and S. RT-PCR showed that DHA or 5-FU down-regulated the expression of bcl-2 and bcl 2l12 mRNA, while bax mRNA expression was not downregnlated. Conclusions DHA could inhibit the growth of gastric carcinoma cells, DHA and 5-FU had synergetic effect in the inhibition of the cells growth and blockage of the cell cycles possibly by down-regulating the expression of bcl-2 and bcl 2l12.

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization tim e-of-flight im aging m ass spectrom etry (MALDI-TOF-IMS ) has been a classical technique for studying proteom ics in present and a tool for analyzing the distribution of proteins and sm all m olecules w ithin biological tissue sections. MALDI-TOF-IMS can analyze m ultiple unknow n com pounds in biological tissue sections sim ultaneously through a single m ea-surem ent w hich can obtain m olecule im aging of the tissue w hile m aintaining the integrity of cellular and m olecules in tissue. In recent years, im aging m ass spectrom etry technique develops relatively quickly in all biom edical dom ain. T his paper based on the relevant data and review s the present developing level of MALDI-TOF-IMS, the principle of im aging m ass spectrom etry, m ethology and the prospect in foren-sic pathology.

Objective The purpose is to sort out the key steps and core indicators of priority setting for health technology assessment,and provide references for the research of priority setting for health technology assessment in China.Methods To search information from the official website of the World Health Organization,the websites of international health technology assessment agencies/organizations,and CNKI,Wanfang,Pubmed,Embase and other databases related for the setting of health technology assessment priority topics,and the key steps and core indicators of the setting of priority topics were analyzed by descriptive statistical analysis.Results 21 priority setting schemes for health technology assessment were finally incorporated,and the key steps were extracted to set indicators for collecting evaluations.Ratings and rankings and review decisions.The core indicators are disease burden,economic impact and clinical/health impact.Conclusion The key steps and core indicators of international priority setting provide rich practical experience for China's health technology assessment priority setting,which should be actively used for reference to promote evidence-based and scientific decision-making of health technology assessment in China.
