G protein-coupled receptor 30 ( GPR30),a sort of novel functional estrogen transmembrane receptor,extensively participate in the pathological and physiological regulation by mediating the rapid nongenomic effects of the estrogen,which plays an important role in the occurrence and development of the hormone-related malignant neoplasms.

Objective To study the relationship between tyrosine kinase receptor B (TrkB)expression and anoikis-suppression and invasion in OVCAR3 ovarian cancer ceils. Methods The expression of TrkB mRNA in OVCAR3 ovarian cancer cells under two culture conditions :adhesive cells and ceil-spheroids were evaluated by RT-PCR and real-time PCR.The relationship between TrkB expression and anoikis-suppression of OVCAR3 ovarian cancer ceils was examined by RNA interference (RNAi) technic,anchorage independent culture and fluorescence-activated ceil sorting analysis.The difference in invasion and metastatic ability of OVCAR3 cells under two culture conditions and with or without TrkB silenced by small interfering RNA (siRNA) was investigated by matrigel invasion assay and in vivo studies.Results The expression of TrkB mRNA was highest in OVCAR3 ovarian cancer ceils,0.0240 ~ 0.0017,compared with the other three cell lines,0.0030±0.0006,0.0027±0.0009 and 0.0087±0.0003 respectively,andthe expression in OVCAR3 multicellular spheroids was significantly higher than that in ceils under monolayer adhesive culture,0.0437±0.0021 versus 0.0240±0.0017 (P<0.01) . TrkB mediated anoikissuppression in OVCAR3 ovarian cancer ceils.OVCAR3 multiceilular spheroids had a higher invasion ability than OVCAR3 cells under monolayer adhesive culture,and the penetrating cells of the two groups were 71.8± 0.8 and 47.7±0.8 respectively (P<0.01 ).The metastatic ability of OVCAR3 cells was attenuated when TrkB was silenced,and the volume of the tumors developed by OVCAR3 adhesive cells and OVCAR3 adhesive cells with TrkB silenced were (16.3±4.7) mm3 and(6.0±1.4) mm3 respectively (P<0.01).Conclusion As an anoikis-suppressur,TrkB may increase the invasion and metastasis of OVCAR3 ovarian cancer cells.

Objective To investigate the quality of life of post-operative patients with cholecystolithiasis and analyze the influencing factors. Methods About 206 patients with cholecystolithiasis were enrolled in the investigation by gastrointestinal quality of life index (GIQLI). Multivariate linear regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of their quality of life. Results The GIQLI score of 206 patients was (115.81 ±9.22) and the index value was 80.42%. Three independent variables such as breakfast habit, exercise, three hyperlipidemia, were the factors that affected the quality of life (P<0.05). Conclusions The quality of life of patients after cholelithiasis is lower than that of normal people. Patients should develop good eating habits and exercise habits, strengthen the interventions with high blood lipids, high blood pressure and hyperglycemia to improve the quality of life of post-operative patients with cholecystolithiasis.
