This study examined the role of PI3K/Akt pathway in radiosensitization of DNA damage of cervical carcinoma cells. The 50% inhibition concentration (IC(50)) of cisplatin and docetaxel in HeLa cells was detected by Mono-nuclear cell direct cytotoxicity assay (MTT) in vitro. HeLa cells were treated by cisplatin/docetaxel of 10 percent of IC(20) alone or combined with LY294002 for 24 h, and then radiated by different doses of X-ray. The cell survival ratio was obtained by means of clone formation. One-hit multi-target model was fitted to the cell survival curve to calculate dose quasithreshold (Dq), mean lethal dose (D(0)), 2Gy survival fraction (SF(2)) and sensitization enhancement ratio (SER). The pAkt and total Akt expression was detected by Western blotting and DNA damage by neutro-comet electrophoresis. The HeLa cells were randomly divided into 7 groups in terms of different treatments: Control; radiation treatment (RT) group; LY294002+RT group; cisplatin+RT group; docetaxel+RT group; LY294002+cisplatin+RT group; LY294002+docetaxel+RT group. The apoptosis ratio of each group was measured by flow cytometry. The results showed that docetaxel and cisplatin significantly enhanced the phosphorylation of Akt in radiation-treated HeLa cells. The Dq, D(0) and SF2 in LY294002-contained groups were lower than those in docetaxel or cisplatin+RT group. The SER in the LY294002+docetaxel+RT group was 1.35 times that of the docetaxel+RT group, and that in the LY294002+cisplatin+RT group 1.26 times that of the cisplatin+RT group. The Comet electrophoresis showed that tail distance in the LY294002+cisplatin+RT group or LY294002+docetaxel+ RT group was longer than in the cisplatin+RT group or docetaxel+RT group. The apoptosis ratio in the LY294002+cisplatin+RT group or LY294002+docetaxel +RT group was higher than in the cisplatin+RT group or docetaxel+RT group. It was concluded that inhibiting PI3K/Akt pathway can increase the effect of docetaxel and cisplatin on the radiosensitivity of HeLa cells and DNA damage resulted from radiation.

In order to investigate the comprehensive quality differences of the seeds harvested in different growing time, and offer theoretical guide for the optimization of seeds' production technology, we analyzed the apparent size, 1 000-grain weight, water absorbency, germination indexes, postharvest embryo rate change, relatively contents of coumarins and the yield of single plant of its seeds of different harvesting time, and compared their comprehensive quality by Topsis analysis. The results showed that there existed obvious differences in yield and quality between seeds of 3 harvesting times. While the harvesting time postponed, the yield of single plant raised, and the shrunken seeds rate decreased, the quality of seedlings increased, while the contents of coumarins showed a steady increase, and the germination rate decreased. The comprehensive quality of the seeds harvested in the black ripe time rank the first place, followed by the brown ripe time and the yellow ripe time. As the harvesting time delays, the seeds' comprehensive quality increases, therefore, we could put off the seeds' harvesting time properly for the high efficient seed production.

AIM: To investigate the changes of small intestine villus and sublingual microcirculation perfusion in the rabbits during endotoxic shock by sidestream dark-field imaging (SDF) after resuscitation to a mean arterial pressure (MAP) level.METHODS: New Zealand white rabbits (n=60) were randomly divided into 2 groups (group of villus and group of sublingua).The fistula operation of ileum was performed.Lipopolysaccharide was injected to establish endotoxic shock model, and fluid resuscitation (lactated Ringer's solution, 30 mL·kg-1·h-1) was given to maitain the MAP of the animals to 80 mmHg.Continuous norepinephrine was intravenously injected at 0.5~1 μg·kg-1·min-1 only if fluid therapy did not maintain the MAP level.The changes of microcirculatory perfusion indexes in small intestine villus and sublingual tissues such as vessels per villus (VV), microvascular flow index (MFI), proportion of perfused villi (PPVi), villus border score, villus vessel score, total vessel density (TVD), perfused vessel density (PVD) and proportion of perfused vessels (PPVe) were continuously observed and recorded by SDF before shock, during shock and after fluid resuscitation.RESULTS: MFI and PPVi in small intestine villus, and MFI, PPVe, TVD and PVD in sublingual tissues were significantly decreased after shock (P<0.01).Compared with MFI in sublingual microcirculation, MFI in villus was significantly decreased (P<0.01).MFI and PPVi in small intestine villus, and MFI, PPVe, TVD and PVD in sublingual tissues were improved after recovered to the target MAP by fluid resuscitation (P<0.05).However, MFI in small intestine villus was significantly lower than that in sublingual tissues after fluid resuscitation (P<0.01).CONCLUSION: The difference between small intestine villus and sublingual microcirculation perfusion during endotoxic shock is observed.The descent degree of microcirculation perfusion in small intestine villus is larger than that in sublingual tissues after shock, and the recovery degree of small intestine villus microcirculation is lower than that of sublingual microcirculation afer fluid resuscitation.

Objective Changes of small intestine villus microcirculation perfusion in sidestream dark-field (SDF) imaging in the rabbits during endotoxic shock after fluid resuscitation with different target mean arterial pressure (MAP), and evaluation of feasibility of monitoring small intestine villus microcirculation by SDF were studied. Methods Sixty standard New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into two groups: low target MAP group (group A, n = 30) and high target MAP group (group B,n = 30). Fistula operation of ileum was madein vitro, and lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 2 mg/kg) was injected to establish endotoxic shock model. Group A was administered with the lower dose fluid resuscitation (lactated Ringer solution, 20 mL·kg-1·h-1) for target MAP of 65 mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa); group B was administered with the higher dose fluid resuscitation (lactated Ringer solution, 30 mL·kg-1·h-1) for MAP of 80 mmHg. Continuous norepinephrine intravenous injection (0.5-1.0μg·kg-1·min-1) was administered only after fluid therapy couldn't reach the target MAP. The changes of small intestine villus microcirculation perfusion indexes such as vessels per villus (VV), proportion of perfused villi (PPV), microvascular flow index (MFI), borders of villus score (BVS), vessels villus score (VVS) were continuously observed and recorded before the shock, during the shock and after fluid resuscitation using SDF imaging. The differences of microcirculation perfusion were compared between two groups using the specific parameter evaluation system to determine severity of villi microcirculation and injury scores at different stages.Results VV and borders of villus were clear and contact before shock in two groups. After shock, VV, PPV were significantly decreased in both two groups, the borders of villus were destroyed, MFI, BVS, VVS and the total score of villi injury microcirculation were obviously and severely decreased. Partial blood flow of villous capillaries after fluid resuscitation was recovered in two groups, but the perfusion of some region was un-balanced with the outworn borders of villus. VV were rose as compared before and after fluid resuscitation in groups A and B (vessels: 1.21±0.22 vs. 0.81±0.12, 1.54±0.28 vs. 0.79±0.13), and PPV [(31±4)% vs. (12±2)%, (38±5)% vs. (13±3)%], MFI (1.55±0.09 vs. 1.09±0.03, 1.97±0.11 vs. 1.05±0.03), VVS (points: 1.22±0.08 vs. 0.89±0.02, 2.06±0.15 vs. 0.90±0.02) and the sum of MFI, BVS, VVS (3.70±0.19 vs. 2.85±0.07, 5.01±0.29 vs. 2.88±0.08) were significant rose (allP< 0.05). The recovery of group B was better than that of group A, and the injury score was reduced. But BVS were not increased in both groups compared with before and after shock (points: 0.93±0.05 vs. 0.87±0.03, 0.98±0.09 vs. 0.93±0.05, bothP > 0.05).Conclusions For the small intestine villus microcirculation perfusion, the higher target MAP (80 mmHg) after fluid resuscitation or/and vasoconstrictor drugs usage were probably better than the relatively lower target MAP (65 mmHg) during endotoxic shock. SDF imaging is a very promising technique for intestinal villi microcirculatory visualization and assessment.
