Objective To investigate the significance of tamoxifen in the combination chemotherapy of human multidrug-resistant bile duct carcinoma cell line (QBC939/ADM) and its mechanism. Methods The QBC939/AI)M was established, through exposure to gradually increased and the high and low alternated concentration of ADM persistently. The QBC939 and the QBC939/ADM were effected by single ADM, MMC, VDS or jointly with TAM. Drug sensitivity was measured by MTT. Growth cycle and apoptosis were performed by FCM. The level of their P-gp was detected by IHC. The content of ADM in the human cholangiocarcinoma cell line QBC939 was observed by FCM. Results The inhibitive rate of ADM, MMC, VDS to QBC939/ADM was rather lower than to QBC939. With the use of TAM, their chemotherapy effects were apparently enhanced and the apoptosis ratio increased comparably. The IHC results showed that the level of P-gp on the QBC939/ ADM was overexpressed, and the content of ADM in the QBC939/ADM group was much lower. Effected with the high content of TAM(10 μmol/L), the level of P-gp on the QBC939/ADM was decreased, with the content of ADM in the QBC939/ADM group increased comparably. TAM could both improve the chemotherapy effects of the two types of the cell, but the effect of the QBC939/ADM group was more apparent. Conclusion TAM can enhance the depressant effect of chemotherapy to both the two types of the cell, and increase the content of ADM in the QBC939/ADM group. TAM can be combined with the overexpressed P-gp.

Objective To study the characteristics of child acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) immuno-phenotype and evaluate its diagnosis value. Methods Direct immunofluorescence staining and CD45/Side Scatter (SSC) gating of flow cytometry were used for immunophenotyping in 111 cases of child ALL. The relation of mor-phology and immunology classification was analyzed. Results Three categories could be identified,including 81 ca-ses (73.0%) of B lineage ALL, 16 cases (14.4%) of T lineage ALL and 14 cases (12.6% ) of B/T lineage ALL. There were 25 cases (22.5% ) of ALL expressing myeloid-associated antigens. According to the FAB Morphology classification,59 cases (53.2%) of L1 type and 47 cases (42.3%) of L2 type were diagnosed. The two cases (1.8%) of L3 type were classified as one case of null-ALL and one case of B-ALL. One case (0.9%)of acute my-eloblastic leukemia (AML-M2a) was identified as null-ALL. The two cases that could not be diagnosed by FAB clas-sification were c-ALL. Conclusion The immunophenotyping helps to identify the character of leukemia with an im-portant value in diagnosis of child ALL.

Angiopoietin-like proteins are a family of proteins that are closely related to lipid, glucose and energy metabolism, as well as angiogenesis. To date, eight Angptls have been discovered, namely Angptl1 to Angptl8 that play key roles in metabolic regulation and marker assisted selection. In this review, we summarized current progress on the structure, signaling pathways, upstream regulatory genes and metabolic network of Angptl1-8. Finally, in combination with our work, the status and problems of animal breeding as well as the future prospects for Angptls were discussed.

Objective To analyze the features of normal high-frequency ultrasonography of tarsal tunnel. Methods Forty volunteers (20 males and 20 females) were examined with high-frequency ultrasound (12 MHz). The tendons,nerve and blood vessels in tarsal tunnel were observed from short-axis and long-axis views dynamically. The areas of tarsal tunnel and posterior tibial nerve were measured and com-pared between the males and females. Results High-frequency ultrasonography depicted the anatomical structure of tarsal tunnel,and the tendons,nerve and blood vessels presented different sonographic features that were easy to differentiate. The area of tarsal tunnel: male (7.61 ±1.00) cm2,female (6. 61 ± 1. 07) cm2 (P <0. 01). The area of posterior tibial nerve: male (9. 59 ± 0. 75) mm2,female (8.91 ±0.74) mm2(P<0.01). Conclusion High-frequency ultrasonography can clearly show and accurately measure the tarsal tunnel structure. To be familiar with the normal ultrasonographic anatomy of tarsal tunnel will help to improve the efficacy of ultrasound diagnosis of tarsal tunnel abnormalities.

Objective:To explore whether microRNA-21-5p (miR-21-5p) has the effect of anti-apoptosis of human alveolar typeⅡ epithelial cells (ATⅡ).Methods:ATⅡ cells derived from the human were cultured in vitro and used for experiments when the cells were grown until the presence of lamellar bodies and microvilli were observed by light microscope. The cells were divided into blank control group (direct culture), hydrogen peroxide (H 2O 2) injury group (cultured with 0.5 mmol/L H 2O 2), and miR-21-5p overexpression group (using miR-21-5p with a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 100 lentiviral overexpression vector with 0.5 mmol/L H 2O 2) and miR-21-5p empty virus control group (miR-21-5p lentiviral blank vector was co-cultured with 0.5 mmol/L H 2O 2). In each group, cell proliferation was detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) at 0, 12, 24, 36, and 48 hours of cell culture; cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry at 24 hours of culture. Results:① Cell proliferation activity test results: with the extension of cell culture time, the cell proliferation activity of the blank control group gradually increased, while the cell proliferation activity gradually decreased after the addition of 0.5 mmol/L H 2O 2. However, the cells proliferation activity in the miR-21-5p overexpression group decreased more slowly than that in the H 2O 2 injury group and the miR-21-5p empty virus control group, and the cell proliferation activity at 48 hours was significantly higher than the H 2O 2 injury group and the miR-21-5pempty virus control group ( A value: 0.295±0.005 vs. 0.184±0.005, 0.169±0.002, both P < 0.05). It showed that both H 2O 2 and lentivirus accelerated cell damage, while miR-21-5p could reduce cell apoptosis. ② Apoptosis rate test results: compared with the blank control group, the apoptosis rate increased significantly after adding 0.5 mmol/L H 2O 2; while the apoptosis rate of the miR-21-5p overexpression group was lower than that of the H 2O 2 injury group and miR-21-5p empty virus control group [early apoptosis rate: (14.31±0.12)% vs. (24.50±0.12)%, (23.41±0.13)%; late apoptosis rate: (8.12±0.13)% vs. (9.71±0.11)%, (10.41±0.15)%; overall apoptosis rate: (22.33±0.12)% vs. (34.21±0.10)%, (33.82±0.14)%; all P < 0.05], which further proved that miR-21-5p had anti-apoptotic effects. Conclusion:miR-21-5p has an anti-apoptotic effect on human ATⅡ.
