AIM: To study the effects of Cripto gene on vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) of colon carcinoma cells.METHODS: Cripto siRNA was designed and constructed.Colon cancer LS-174T cells were divided into 4 groups: control group and different dose (3.125,6.25 and 12.5 nmol/L) of siRNA groups.After transfected for 24,48 and 72 h,colon cancer cells were harvested to carry on the next tests.Expression of Cripto mRNA was determined with real-time PCR,and immunofluorescence isothiocyanate(FITC) labeling assay and Northern blotting were performed to examine the expression of protein and mRNA of VEGF,respectively.The cells in control group and cells transfected with 12.5 nmol/L siRNA were inoculated into nude mice respectively.30 days after inoculated,the mice of two groups were executed,and immunohistochemical(ICH) assay was used to evaluate the VEGF protein of mice tumor.RESULTS: siRNA down-regulated the Cripto mRNA in a dose and time dependent manner.Protein and mRNA of VEGF in transfected cells reduced in a dose and time dependent manner.Compared to control,the expression of VEGF protein from ICH assay was lowered significantly(P

Background The classical theory from Gass holds that idiopathic macular hole (IMH) is due to the dragging of vitreous cortex in the tangent direction on the macular region,while spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT)studies found that the diameters of inner segment/outer segment (IS/OS) absence (DIOA) region was closely associated with vision ability of IMH patients.Enhanced depth imaging (EDI) is thought to be a new method to study the relation between DIOA and subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT) ,but there are few relevant reports.Objective This study aimed to observe the correlation between photoreceptor IS/OS junction and SFCT before and after vitrectomy in IMH by EDI SD-OCT.Methods Forty unilateral IMH patients were enrolled in Affiliated Foshan Hospital of Southern Medical University from June 2011 to June 2013.Vitrectomy (23G) was performed on the patients by the same operator.EDI mode of SD-OCT was used to measure DIOA and SFCT in horizontal direction before and 6 months after surgery.The relationship between DIOA and SFCT was evaluated using Pearson linear correlation analysis.Written informed consent was obtained from each patient before medical assessment.Results IMH was anatomically closed after vitrectomy in 34 eyes with the closure rate 85％.The mean DIOA was (1 280±753) μm in preoperation, which was significantly higher than (656 ± 322) μm in postoperation (t =4.989, P =0.000).The mean SFCT was (130±43)μm in preoperation,showing a slight reduce in comparison with (140±38)μrn in postoperation, but there was not statistical significance between them (t =-1.407, P =0.175).Negative correlations were found between DIOA and SFCT in both preoperation and postoperation (preoperation:r=-0.748 ,P=0.000;postoperation: r=-0.686,P =0.001).Conclusions The alteration of DIOA shows a negative correlation with SFCT in IMH eyes,suggesting a contributing role of the choroid in the change of photoreceptors of IMH.

The nano-magnetic ferrofluid was prepared by chemical coprecipitation and its acute toxicology was investigated. The effective diameter (Eff. Diam. ) of the magnetic particles was about 19.9 nm, and the concentration of the ferrofluid was 17. 54 mg/ml. The acute toxic reaction and the main viscera pathological morphology of mice were evaluated after oral, intravenous and intraperitoneal administration of the nano-magnetic ferrofluid of different doses respectively. Half lethal dose (LD50) > 2104. 8 mg/kg,maximum non-effect dose (ED0) = 320. 10mg/kg with oral; LDs,> 438. 50 mg/kg, EDo = 160. 05 mg/kg with intravenous route; and LDso >1578. 6 mg/kg, ED0 = 320. 10 mg/kg with intraperitoneal administration. Degeneration and necrosis of viscera were not found. So the nano-magnetic ferrofluid, of which toxicity is very low, may be used as a drug carrier.

BACKGROUND:Lymph-targeted tracing and therapy based on carbon nanotubes have been one of the hottest researches on targeting tumor diagnosis and treatment. To evaluate the accumulation of carbon nanotubes in axil ary lymph node can provide experimental evidences for developing nano-tracers and drug carriers which are more lymph-specific and more biocompatible. OBJECTIVE:To study the accumulation of the intravenously injected carboxylated single-wal ed carbon nanotubes in axil ary lymph nodes of Sprague-Dawley rats, and to evaluate their effect on blood cel s. METHODS:Sixty-four Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into two groups. Rats in testing group were injected with carboxylated single-wal ed carbon nanotubes suspension (2 mg/kg), while those in control group were injected with 5%glucose solution (1 mL/kg), both through the tail vein, three times per week. Four periods of 7, 60, 90 and 120 days were set (the 120-day period referred to 90 days of administration fol owed by 30 days of drug withdrawal). At the end of each period, eight rats from each group were randomly picked out, to col ect blood samples via the abdominal aorta for blood routine test. Final y the axil ary lymph nodes were observed, and the lymph node samples of rats in the testing group were col ected and analyzed at 120 days by transmission electron microscope. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the control group, black staining of axil ary lymph nodes of rats in testing group was not obvious at the end of the 7-day period. However, with the increase of the dosing periods, the lymph nodes of the rats in the testing group became enlarged, firm and black stained, coupled with a significant rising in the percentage of blood neutrophils. After 30 days of drug withdrawal, the size of the rat axil ary lymph nodes was reduced and black staining partly faded, with the decreasing of blood neutrophil percentage. Under the transmission electron microscope, abundant carboxylated single-wal ed carbon nanotubes were uptaken by lymphocytes to form a large number of phagocytic vacuoles after drug withdrawal for 30 days. It indicates that the short-term tracing of rat axil ary lymph nodes by carboxylated single-wal ed carbon nanotubes injected through the tail vein is relatively weak, while the long-term intravenous injection can cause their accumulation in rat axil ary lymph nodes, coupled with the increase of neutrophils;after drug withdrawal, the carboxylated single-wal ed carbon nanotubes can be slowly cleared by the lymph nodes.

Objective To improve the acknowledge of diagnosis and therapy of aggressive systemic mastocytosis (ASM).Methods One ASM patient was reported and the literatures were reviewed.Results As a rare subtype of SM,ASM is characterized by multiple organs involvement,and often accompanied by bone marrow dysfunction,osteolytic lesions and palpable hepatomegaly or splenomegaly which usually indicate the high mast cell burden.Conclusion ASM meets criteria for SM and has one or more C findings.Variable factors affect the prognosis of ASM patients and the formulation of the clinical treatment strategy which leads to the highly individualized therapies.

Objective: To investigate the effects of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) and 5-fluorouracil(5-Fu) on human colon carcinoma LOVO cells in vitro. Methods: The LOVO cells during exponential growth stage were harvested and divided into control group,GH group, 5-Fu group and GH + 5-Fu group. According to the dose of GH, the GH group was separated into two sub-groups(50 ng/mL and 100 ng/mL) and the GH +5-Fu group was separated into two sub-groups. With different concentrations of rhGH and/or 5-Fu , the cell survive rates were analyzed by MTT assay after 24 h , 48 h and 72 h and cell cycle and proliferation index (PI) were analyzed by flow cytometry after 24 h. Results: Compared with the control group, the survive rates in 5-Fu and GH +5-Fu groups were decreased significantly (P <0. 05). The significant effects of rhGH on cell cycle kinetics were found in the cell line. Compared with the control group, percentage of S phase and proliferation index (PI) significantly increased (P <0.05)and percentage of G_0/G_1 phase decreased (P <0. 05) in GH groups. Percentages of cells of S phase and PI significantly decreased in GH + 5-Fu groups (P < 0. 05). Rate of apoptosis increased in 5-Fu and GH +5-Fu groups (P <0.05). Compared with the 5-Fu group, there were no statistically significant differences in percentages of cells of S phase and PI and rate of apoptosis between two GH+5-Fu groups(P >0. 05). Conclusion-. rhGH does not stimulate the LOVO cells proliferation in vitro, and its use is safe when combined with 5-fluorouracil.

Objective To observe the solo-allied expression of Survivin, Smad4/dpc4 and APC gene, and study the relationship between the three genes and biological behavior of colorectal cancer. Methods The expressions of Survivin, Smad4/dpc4 and APC gene were detected by SP immunohistochem-istry among the cases from 40 eu-intestine ,80 large intestinal adenoma and 80 CRC. Results The positive rate of survivin protein in the eu-intestine, the large intestinal adenoma and CRC was 0,35.0% ,75.0% , respectively. The positive rate of Smad4/dpc4 protein was 100% , 95. 0% , 78. 8% , and the positive rate of APC protein was 100% ,80.0% ,45.0% , respectively. In the eu-intestine, APC + Smad4/dpc4 Z- expressed in 40 cases, with the incidence of 100%. In the large intestinal adenoma, APC + Smad4 expressed in 38 patients, with the incidence of 47. 5% , and the three genes expressed in 29 patients with the incidence of 23. 8%. In the CRC, two genes expressed in 57 patients, with the incidence of 71. 3% , and three genes expressed in 28 patients, with the incidence of 35.0%. Conclusion The detection of survivin was a new indicator in early diagnosis of CRC. It was significant in the diagnosis of CRC that energetic search for the positive rate level realm of survivin. The catastrophe or absence of Smad4/dpc4 gene not only induced the genesis of CRC but also encouraged its growth. Smad4/dpc4 was ant- carcinomatous gene intimately correlated to the CRC. Detection of APC gene had very important significance, it could be helpful to conduct the research of tumorous aetiology, nosogenesis and early diagnosis. The allied detection of Survivin, Smad4/dpc4, APC gene played a very important role in early diagnosing and healing the CRC.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the possible association between the gene ALOX5AP encoding 5-lipoxygenase activating protein (FLAP)and coronary artery disease(CAD)in the Han population of North China.METHODS:A total of 680 cases underwent selective coronary angiography(SCA)from Shenyang General Hospital of Chinese PLA was recruited from January 2006 to September 2007.According to the results of SCA.680 cases were divided into CAD group with angiography positive(n=336)and control group with angiography negative or the stenosis of coronary arteries<50%(n=344)without evidence of cardiac ischemia.Single nucleotide polymorphisms of ALOX5AP gene was screened in 48 unrelated Han individuals of North China by polymerase chain reaction fPCR)-Re-sequencing method and 7 polymorphisms were found.The genotype and allele distribution of T(-1340)G polymorphism between two groups was determined by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment Iength polymorphism(PCR-RFLP)analysis in CAD and controI subjects.RESULTS:The genotype frequencies of TT,TG and GG in the ALOX5AP T(-1 340)G polymorphism were 26.79%,51 179%and 21.43%in CAD patients,33.72%,47.38%and 18.90%in the controls,respectively(x~2=3.90,P>0.06).The genotype distribution between two groups was in accordance with hardy-weinberg equilibrium.There are no significant differences in the distribution of three genotypes between the two groups.The frequencies of ALOX5AP G allele in cases and controls were 47.32%,42.59%,respectively(x~2=3.08,P>0.05).Subsequent stratified analysis by gender also showed no statistical significance in the genotype frequencies and allele frequencies between the two groups.CONCLUSION:The result suggests that T(-1340)G polymorphism of the ALOX5AP gene might not be associated with CAD in the Han population of North China.
