OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of the quinoline derivative PQ1 combined with cisplatin on the proliferation and gap junction communication of prostate cancer PC3 cells.
METHODSWe cultured in vitro prostate cancer PC3 cells and divided them into DMSO blank control, cisplatin control, and cisplatin (10 mg/ml) plus PQ1 (1, 2, 5, 10, and 15 μmol/L) groups. We measured the proliferation of the prostate cancer PC3 cells, determined the expressions of the connexin 43 (Cx43) mRNA and protein by RT-PCR and Western blot, and compared the indexes among different groups.
RESULTSCisplatin combined with PQl at 1 - 10 μmol/L significantly inhibited the proliferation of the PC3 cells and the inhibition rate rose in a concentration- and time-dependent manner, from (48.72 ± 0.98)% vs (50.33 ± 0.62)% at 0 μmol/L to (77.38 ± 1.12)% vs (83.50 ± 1.05)% at 15 μmol/L at 24 and 48 hours (P < 0.05). Compared with the cisplatin control, cisplatin combined with PQ1 at 1, 2, 5, 10, and 15 μmol/L increased the expression of Cx43 mRNA from 0.379 ± 0.113 to 0.669 ± 0.031, 0.831 ± 0. 127, 0.769 ± 0.100, 0.532 ± 0.086, and 0.475 ± 0.134, respectively (P < 0.05), and cisplatin combined with PQ1 at 1, 2, 5, and 10 μmol/L elevated that of Cx43 protein from 0.138 ± 0.146 to 0.263 ± 0.111, 0.306 ± 0.152, 0.415 ± 0.280, and 0.643 ± 0.310, respectively (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONThe quinoline derivative PQ1 can promote the gap junction communication of prostate cancer PC3 cells and enhance the killing effect of cisplatin on PC3 cells by upregulating the expressions of Cx43 mRNA and protein.

OBJECTIVETo explore the regulation of transdermal absorption of Secretio Bufonis (SB) and the effect of low frequency complex impulse current (LFCIC) on it.
METHODSBy modifying three-chamber flow diffusion pool to develop a prototype LFCIC device for transdermal delivery, using high performance liquid chromatograph (HPLC) to determine the quantitative transdermal absorption of the amount of ingredients of SB, including bufalin, cinobufagin and resibufogenin, etc. and the transdermal absorption velocity was calculated.
RESULTSThe chief ingredients of SB could be absorbed through skin, but the volume was low. Additional application of LFCIC could enhance the cumulative infiltration volume and velocity of transdermal diffusion. Difference appeared 2 hrs after and significant difference appeared 4 hrs after the application, and 13.8 Hz showed the optimal effect of transdermal delivery.
CONCLUSIONChief ingredients of SB could be absorbed through transdermal medication, and LFCIC can evidently enhance the amount and velocity of transdermal absorption of SB.

During the washing process of coarse bear gall powder extracts, it is necessary to adjust the amount of ethyl acetate according to the properties of raw materials, which aims to improving the yield and purity of the final product. In the research, using NIR spectra to reflect the comprehensive properties of coarse bear gall powder extracts, the process is optimized in a flexible way. Forty batches experiments are designed according to the weight ratio of ethyl acetate and coarse extracts of bear gall powder. The NIR spectra of the coarse extracts of bear gall powder are collected and processed using principal component analysis (PCA) method. The first 8 principal components combined with the amount of the ethyl acetate are used as the input variables, and calibration models are established to predict the yield and purity of the final product 30 batches are used as calibration set, which is used to establish the models, and other 10 batches are used as validation set, which is used for the performance appraisal of the established models. The correlation coefficients of the calibration, inner cross-validation and external validation for the purity model are 0.902, 0.896 and 0.883, respectively, and the RMSEC, RMSECV and RMSEP are 1.22%, 1.48% and 1.59%, respectively. The correlation coefficients of the calibration, inner cross-validation and external validation for the yield model are 0.921, 0.859 and 0.916, respectively, and the RMSEC, RMSECV and RMSEP are 1.39%, 1.65% and 1.53% respectively. This work demonstrated that NIR spectra combined with technology parameter could be used to predict the yield and purity of the final product. Using the established models, the most appropriate amount of the ethyl acetate can be determined according to the properties of the coarse bear gall powder extracts, and the yield and purity of the final product can be improved.

In order to increase the production of insecticidal crystal proteins Cry1 and Cry2, firstly, Plack-ett-Burman design was applied to evaluate the effectiveness of the related nutrition factors; it was found that the soybean powder and MnSO4?H2O were significant factors for Cry1 production, but the yield of Cry2 wasn’t effected remarkably in such medium. Then the steepest ascent experiment was adopted to approach the optimal region of the medium composition. Lastly, the optimal concentration of the soybean powder and MnSO4?H2O was 11.5 and 0.02 g/L, obtained by response surface methodology (RSM). The final yields of Cry1 and Cry2 was 0.32 mg/mL and 0.11 mg/mL, increasing twice more than that in the medium optimized before. The median lethal concentration (LC50) of optimal medium was 1.09 ?L/mL. The toxicity to Heli-coverpa armigera was significantly enhanced than the old one.

Objective To study the correlation of ~(18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT with pathological changes of the VX2 rabbit tumors after treatment of Ar-He knife,and to explore the evolution of the Ar-He knife curative effect for VX2 rabbit tumors.Methods Thirty-six Japanese white rabbits had successfully been implanted with VX2 tumors in thighs.Four weeks later,the rabbits with VX2 tumors were imaged with FDG PET/CT before they were treated with Ar-He cryoablation.The rabbits were evenly and randomly divided into 6 groups (6 rabbits in each group) and imaged with FDG PET/CT respectively on the first day,third day,seventh day,fourteenth day,thirtieth day and sixtieth day after cryoablation.The rabbits in each group were sacriftced after post-treatment FDG PET/CT imaging for pathology and immunohistochemistry studies.The standardized uptake value (SUV) of tumor regions were calculated and compared with pathology and immunohistochemistry findings in the cryoablative area in each group.Paired-samples t-test and bivariate correlation analysis were evaluated by statistical software SPSS 16.0.Results After ArHe cryoablation,pathological changes of "necrosis-inflammatory response→organization" were found.On CT imaging,the tumors enlarged during 3-14 d after treatment and then shrank gradually.On FDG PET imaging,the maximum SUV (SUV_(max)) dropped dramatically on the first day after the operation(from 2.54±1.12 to 0.67±0.12),and increased slightly on the third day (1.71±0.82),and then continually dropped to 0.51±0.32 (60 d afterthe operation).The differences of SUV_(max) between pre-and after cryoablationin each stage were significant,respectively (t=5.471,8.716,11.388,5.713,7.144 and 7.213,all P<0.05).The size and SUV_(max) of the targeting area did not correlate with each other(r=0.259,P=0.675).The change of the MVD closely correlated with SUV_(max)(r=0.865,P=0.032).Conclusion FDG PET/CT can reveal the pathological change of tumor tissue after Ar-He cryoablation therapy and therefore may be a potential tool for evaluating the curative effect of this treatment modality.
