Objective It has been known that NSAIDs can inhibit the growth of tumors through cyclooxygenase, but it is unknown that whether there are other mechanisms involved. It is essential to detect the effect of indomethacin for proliferation and apoptosis in the HCT116 and explore its anti tumor mechanism. Methods Human colon adenocarcinoma cell line HCT116 was treated with different concentration of indomethacin for 24 h and CDK 2,CDK 4, Bcl 2, Bax and p21 WAF1/CIP1 protein were detected by Western blot. Results Indomethacin down regulated the expression of CDK 2, CDK 4, Bcl 2 and up regulated the expression of p21 WAF1/CIP1 , however, the expression of Bax remained unchanged. Conclusions Inhibiting proliferation and inducing apoptosis contribute to the anti tumor activity of indomethacin by down regulating the expression of CDK 2, CDK 4, Bcl 2 and up regulating the expression of p21 WAF1/CIP1 .

Objective To investigate the effects of neferine on the proliferation and the P-glycoprotein(P-gp) expression of refractory/relapsed acute leukemic cells and to provide experimental evidence for further clinical use. Methods MTT and immunocytochemistry SABC methods were used respectively to observe the alteration of the proliferation and the expression of P-gp in refractory/relapsed acute leukemic cells after treating with neferine.

Multidrug resistance (MDR) plays a major obstacle to successful gastric cancer chemotherapy. The purpose of this study was to investigate the MDR reversal effect and mechanisms of hyperthermia in combination with neferine (Nef) in adriamycin (ADM) resistant human SGC7901/ADM gastric cancer cells. The MDR cells were heated at 42°C and 45°C for 30 min alone or combined with 10 μg/mL Nef. The cytotoxic effect of ADM was evaluated by MTT assay. Cellular plasma membrane lipid fluidity was detected by fluorescence polarization technique. Intracellular accumulation of ADM was monitored with high performance liquid chromatography. Mdr-1 mRNA, P-glycoprotein (P-gp), γH2AX expression and γH2AX foci formation were determined by real-time PCR, Western blot and immunocytochemical staining respectively. It was found that different heating methods induced different cytotoxic effects. Water submerged hyperthermia had the strongest cytotoxicity of ADM and Nef combined with hyperthermia had a synergistic cytotoxicity of ADM in the MDR cells. The water submerged hyperthermia increased the cell membrane fluidity. Both water submerged hyperthermia and Nef increased the intracellular accumulation of ADM. The water submerged hyperthermia and Nef down-regulated the expression of mdr-1 mRNA and P-gp. The water submerged hyperthermia could damage DNA and increase the γH2AX expression of SGC7901/ADM cells. The higher temperature was, the worse effect was. Our results show that combined treatment of hyperthermia with Nef can synergistically reverse MDR in human SGC7901/ADM gastric cancer cells.

A simple rapid detection of antibody to hepatitis delta virus (anti-HDV) in human serum was developed by using double antigen sandwich ELISA. HDV gene fragment encoding HDAg was isolated from a Chinese patient infected with HDV by RT-PCR, and a high-efficient expression HD-PQE31 strain was constructed with the fragment. We obtained high titer and good quality hepatitis delta virus protein purified by Ni-NTA metal-affinity chromatography, which was identified by Western blot and ELISA, then we set up the double antigen sandwich ELISA for detection of anti-HDV in human serum, and the performance of the sandwich ELISA was evaluated in terms of specificity and sensitivity. Results were: 1) The purified HDAg protein's purity was 90%, and its ELISA titer was 1/100 000. 2) 42 anti-HDV positive sera were detected and showed that the sensitivity of sandwich ELISA was higher than that of competitive ELISA (t=2.44, p<0.01). 3) The inhibitory rates for 2 anti-HDV positive sera by the specific HDAg were 74% and 93% respectively. 4) For the assay of specificity, all 60 samples infected by other hepatitis viruses and 30 normal samples were negative for anti-HDV. These results suggested that the double antigen sandwich ELISA with purified recombinant HDAg showed higher specificity and sensitivity, It can be used in routine laboratories to diagnose the HDV infection.
