Results:The humanistic caring ability of experimental group was higher than that of the control group ( P<0 . 05 ) . The experimental group gives high evaluation on the effect of nursing English combining with humanistic care edu-cation. Conclusion:Nursing English combining with humanistic care education helps to improve nursing students' humanistic concern consciousness and enhance their humanistic caring ability.

Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of RNA interference on the expression of Aurora A in U251 cells, and the influence on proliferation and apoptosis of U251 cells. Methods The siRNA specific for Aurora A was synthesized and transfected into U251 cells in vitro. Aurora A mRNA expression and protein content were detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting respectively. The cell proliferation and apoptosis were observed by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT) and flow cytometry(FCM). Transmission electron microscope was used to observe the ultrastructural changes of U251 cells. Results After transfection, the expression level of Aurora A mRNA was significantly decreased(P<0.01), and the protein content of Aurora A was also obviously reduced. The inhibitory rate of cell proliferation reached up to 67.57% 72 hours after transfection, which was significantly higer than that of normal control group(P<0.01). The apoptosis rate of U251 cells was significantly increased from (3.69±0.87)% to (15.34±2.16)% (P<0.01). Under the transmission electron microscope, it was observed that the U251 cells showed typical morphologic changes of apoptosis after transfection, such as karyopyknosis, chromatin condensation and margination, intracytoplasmic vacuoles formed, and apoptotic bodies formed. Conclusion The expression of Aurora A gene can be inhibited by siRNA successfully, and it results in the suppression of cell growth and induce apoptosis of human glioma cells in vitro. Aurora A may become a new target for the gene therapy of gliomas.

OBJECTIVE: To study the influence of PD173074 on proliferation and apoptosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. METHOD: With immunoblotting and RT-PCR, FGFR1 expression was detected in CNE, PONE1 and C666-1 cell lines. With MTT assay,the time-effect and dose-effect correlation between PD173074 and inhibition of CNE proliferation was evaluated. After PD173074 stimulation, the phosphorylation level of FGFR1 and AKT was detected with immunoblotting assay. Furthermore, influence of PD173074 on the activation of Caspase3 and Caspase9 was detected to study the underlying mechanism of why PD173074 could inhibit CNE proliferation. RESULT: FGFR1 has the highest expression in CNE cell line. Under incubation of 10 nmol/L PD173074 stimulation for 36 hours to 72 hours, the phosphorylation of FGFR1 and AKT was impaired significantly, which further reduced the proliferation of CNE. Moreover, PD173074 can activate the intrinsic apoptotic pathway by stimulating Caspase9,which activated Caspase3 and induced the apoptosis. CONCLUSION PD173074 could inhibit proliferation of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell through reducing the phosphorylation of FGFR1 and AKT. Additionally, PD173074 can induce CNE apoptosis by activating intrinsic apoptotic pathway via cleaving Caspase9 and Caspase3.
