Objective:To observe the effects of Shexiang Baoxin Pill (SBP) on isoprenaline (Iso)-induced changes in myocardial cell volume,shape,and connexin 43 (Cx43) expression.Methods:HgC2 myocardial cells were randomly divided into a control group,a Iso group and a Iso+SBP group.After 72 h of culture,the average surface area of HgC2 cells was measured under phase contrast microscope.Bicinchoninic acid (BCA) protein assay was carried out to determine the concentration of proteins.The survival rate of myocardial cells was measured by methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay,and the Cx43 expression was detected by Western blot.Results:The mean surface area and Cx43 concentration in Iso-treated myocardial cells were increased under the phase contrast microscope (P<0.05).Compared with the Iso group,the mean surface area was decreased,and the Cx43 concentration was reduced in the Iso+SBP group (both P<0.05).Compared with the control group,the Cx43 expression was obviously down-regulated in the H9C2 cells of the Iso group (P<0.05);while compared with the Iso group,the Cx43 expression was obviously up-regulated in the Iso+SBP group (P<0.05).Conclusion:Shexiang Baoxin Pills can prevent Iso-induced myocardial hypertrophy and down-regulate Cx43 expression.

Objective To establish the paclitaxel-resistant gastric cancer cell(HGC-27/PTX) and to investigate the changes of characteristics before and after resistance,as well as the possible resistant mechanisms.Methods The paclitaxel-resistant gastric cancer cell HGC-27/PTX was established by increasing paclitaxel dose gradually and intermittently.The IC50 (50% inhibitory concentration) and cell cycle were determined by CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry,respectively.The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and signaling pathways were analyzed using RNAseq.Results The establishment of HGC-27/PTX cells lasted 9 months,and the sensitivity of paclitaxel of HGC-27/PTX cells was significantly lower than parental cells (P<0.05).Compared to parental cells,the morphology of HGC-27/PTX cells was slightly different,and the proportion of S and G2/M phase was obviously increased (P<0.01).A total of 274 DEGs were identified between the resistant and parental cells with 130 genes up-regulated and 144 genes down-regulated.DEGs were significantly enriched in extracellular matrix (ECM)-receptor interaction(P<0.001) and PI3K-Akt signaling pathways (P<0.05),which could provide evidences for reversing paclitaxel resistance.Conclusions The paclitaxel-resistant gastric cancer cells HGC-27/PTX was established with stable culturein vitro,which provides an ideal model for future study on the mechanism of drug resistance.

Objective Investigate the effects of early application of noninvasive respiratory support on very low birth weight infant(VLBWI). Method A total of 65 VLBWI(born during September 2015 to September 2016 with 28-32 weeks gestational age;1000 g ≤ birth weight < 1500 g;exclusion of combination with congenital deformity)were randomly divided into the early application of noninvasive respiratory support as observation group (n = 33) and the application of endotracheal intubation with gen respiratory support as control group (n = 32). Comparison of two groups was carried out by SPSS in terms of incidence of endotracheal intubation,BPD,pulmonary infection,pneumothorax,and necrotizing enterocolitis,together with rescue ratio,total oxygenation time and hospitalization. Results No significant difference was found on incidence of pneumothorax,necrotizing enterocolitis and rescue ratio between two groups. The incidence of endotracheal intubation,BPD,pulmonary infection and total oxygenation time was markly decreased in observation group. Conclusion Early application of noninvasive respiratory support benefits VLBWI via reducing incidence of endotracheal intubation,BPD,pulmonary infection, total oxygenation time.

PURPOSE: Leucine-rich repeats and immunoglobulin-like domains 1 (LRIG1) are an inhibitor of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) that was discovered in recent years, and many studies showed that LRIG1 is a tumor suppressor gene and may be related to tumor drug resistance. In this study, we explored whether LRIG1 protein expression can improve the chemosensitivity of glioma cells and what was its mechanism. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We collected 93 cases of glioma tissues and detected the expression of LRIG1 and BCL-2. We constructed a multidrug resistance cell line U251/multidrug resistance (MDR) and examined the change of LRIG1 and BCL-2 at mRNA and protein expression levels. LRIG1 expression was upregulated in U251/MDR cells and we detected the change of multidrug resistance. Meanwhile, we changed the expression of LRIG1 and BCL-2 and explored the relationship between LRIG1 and BCL-2. Finally, we also explored the relationship between LRIG1 and RTKs. RESULTS: LRIG1 was negatively correlated with BCL-2 expression in glioma tissue and U251/MDR cells, and upregulation of LRIG1 can enhance chemosensitivity and inhibit BCL-2 expression. Furthermore, LRIG1 was negatively correlated with RTKs in U251/MDR cells. CONCLUSION: These results demonstrated that LRIG1 can improve chemosensitivity by modulating BCL-2 expression and RTK signaling in glioma cells.
