Aim Tostudytheeffectsofferulicacid (FA) on doxorubicin (DOX) induced cellular injury inH9c2ratmyocardialcells.Methods H9c2cells were treated with 1μmol·L-1 DOX treated for 24 h to establish a myocardial injury model. 10, 20, 40μmol ·L-1 FA was added 2 h before DOX treatment. Cell viability was measured by cell counter kit ( CCK-8 ) . Morphological changes were observed by phase contrast microscope. LDH, CK, MDA, SOD levels were detec-ted by biochemical kits. Intracellular level of reactive oxygen species ( ROS) was examined by DCF-DA stai-ning with flow cytometry. Cellular apoptosis was detec-ted by AO-EB staining and DNA agarose gel electro-phoresis. The expression of caspase-3, Bax, Bcl-2 was evaluatedbyWesternblot.Results Exposureof H9c2 cells to DOX led to decrease in cell viability, in-crease in stress and apoptosis. FA pre-treatment im-proved cell viability in a dose-dependent manner, at-tenuated leakage of LDH and CK, and reversed mor-phological changes induced by DOX. FA suppressed DOX-induced oxidative stress as evidenced by reducing ROS and MDA generation and increasing SOD enzyme activity. FA depressed myocardial apoptosis by down-regulating pro-apoptotic protein caspase-3 and Bax, whereas up-regulating apoptosis inhibitory protein Bcl-2.Conclusions FAhasaprotectiveeffectonDOX-induced injury in H9c2 cells. This protection may re-sult from inhibition of myocardial oxidative stress and apoptosis.

Objective To examine the mediating role of work?family enrichment between family supportive supervisor behavior and nurses'career resilience. Methods Totally 727 nurses selected by clus?ter?random?sampling were investigated by the family supportive supervisor behaviors scale( FSSBS) ,the wok?family enrichment scale( WFES) and the career resilience scale( CRS) . Results The scores of family sup?portive supervisor behavior,work to family enrichment,family to work enrichment and career resilience were (3.74±0.68),(3.36±0.77),(3.59±0.72) and (3.41±0.84) respectively. The family supportive supervisor behavior( r=0.31, P<0.01) ,work to family enrichment( r=0.32, P<0.01) and family to wok enrichment( r=0.30, P<0.01) were positively related to career resilience. The family supportive supervisor behavior posi?tively influenced career resilience(P<0.01). Work?family enrichment partially mediated the association be?tween family supportive supervisor behavior and career resilience, accounted for 37. 7% of the total effect. Conclusion Health organizations should try to build family supportive organizational climate and improve nurses'level of work?family enrichment and career resilience,then promote job performance and job satisfac?tion.

AIM: To investigate antitumor effect of allotri-tridecyl diethylamine (D-108) in vivo and in vitro. METHODS: The cytotoxic effects of D-108 on various tumor cell lines, human gingival fibroblast and marrow stromal cell cultured in vitro were determined with trypan blue dye exclusion test and MTT method. The acute toxicity of mice by administration of D-108 was evaluated by Bliss method. At a tolerable dose level, D-108 was administrated to treat transplanted solid tumor U14, and tumor weight inhibition was observed. Apoptosis morphological transformation of HL 60 cell induced by D-108 was detected by the Giemsa staining. RESULTS: The cytotoxic effects in vitro of D-108 on various tumor cell lines (IC_ 50 : 0.22 to 2.19 mg?L~ -1 ) were more powerful than both human gingival fibroblast and marrow stromal cell (IC_ 50 : 5.55 and 3.57 mg?L~ -1 ). LD_ 50 of D-108 was 36.49 mg?kg~ -1 (mice, i.g.). D-108 inhibited in vivo growth of implanted solid tumor U14 of mice effectually. The inhibition rate of tumor weight of D-108 (100 mg?kg~ -1 ?d~ -1 i.g.) was 45.27 %. HL 60 cell appearanced typical apoptosis morphological transformation induced by D-108. CONCLUSION: D-108 had obvious antitumor activity in vivo and in vitro and little toxicity. D-108 could induce the apoptosis of HL 60 cell.

Objective To explore the dynamic expressions and the significance of Notch/Jagged signal pathway in rat model of hepatic fibrosis. Methods A total of 42 healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group (n=6) and model group (n= 36). The model group was further divided into six subgroup according to different time points: subgroups of 4 days, 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 weeks with six rats in each subgroup. The rat model of hepatic fibrosis was induced by dimethylnitrosamine (DMN). The serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspertate aminotransferase (AST), albumin (Alb) and hyaluronic acid (HA) were detected dynamically after 4 days, 1,2,4,6 and 8 weeks of injection. The liver tissues were observed under optical microscope after HE and Masson staining. Notch-1, Jagged-1 mRNA and protein in liver were detected by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and immunohistochemistry. The comparison of means among groups was done by univariate ANOVA. Results The hepatic fibrosis model was successfully induced by DMN injection and pseudolobules were found after 4 weeks of injection. The serum levels of ALT, AST, Alb and HA were all increased after 4 day of injection and peaked at week 4 which were all significantly higher than those in control group (F=83.10, 104.63, 54.24, 203.81,respectively; all P＜0.05). The expressions of Notch-1, Jagged-1 mRNA and protein in model group were all significantly increased than those in control group (F=282. 44, 369.14, 374.17, 256. 14,respectively;P＜0. 01). And the expressions of Notch-1, Jagged-1 were closely correlated with the hepatic fibrosis stages and transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1) expression (r=0. 821, 0. 917,0. 767,0. 844, respectively; P＜0. 01 ). Conclusions The Notch/Jagged pathway may participate in the development of hepatic fibrosis, which is closely correlated with the progression and severity of liver fibrosis.

Objective To investigate the dynamic expressions of exchange protein directly activated by cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) (Epac) in rat model of hepatic fibrosis(HF).Methods Forty-two male SD rats were divided into control group (n = 6) and model group (n = 36)which was divided into six subgroups of day 4, week 1, week 2, week 4,week 6 and week 8 with six rats in each subgroup. The rat model of HF was established by intraperitoneal injection of dimethylnitrosamine (DMN). The pathological changes of liver were observed by Hematoxylin-Eosin and Masson staining. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR),immunohistochemistry and Western blot were employed to detect the mRNA and protein expressions of Epac1, Epac2 and transforming gronth factor (TGF)β1 during the process of modeling and localization in the liver. The statistical analysis was done using one-factor ANOVA, LSD-t test,Dunnett T3 test and Pearson linear correlation analysis. Results Rat model of liver fibrosis was established successfully. In control group, Epac1 (0. 031 28±0. 008 96) and Epac2 protein (0.034 43±0. 002 45) mainly expressed in the cytoplasm of hepatocytes. In model group, the level of Epac1 decreased at day 4 (0. 023 97±0. 003 81) and week 1 (0. 015 81±0. 002 48) ,then began to increase at week 2 of modeling and peaked at week 6 (0. 039 54±0. 001 43), which had statistical significance compared to the control group (t= 5.47,11.58 and - 6.18, respectively; all P＜0.05). Epac2 protein expression declined after modeling, reached the lowest level at week 4 (0. 011 21 ±0. 001 32), which had statistical significance compared to the control group (t= 24. 50, P＜0. 05). TGFβ1 protein expression increased after modeling and peaked at week 4 (0. 011 30±0.001 03) which had statistical significance (t= -23. 36, P＜0. 05) compared to the control group (0. 002 08 ±0. 000 18). The expressions of Epac1, Epac2 and TGFβ1 mRNA were consistent with the trend of protein levels.Correlation analysis showed that Epac1 protein was positively correlated with the course of HF (r =0. 703, P＜0.01 ), while Epac2 protein was negatively correlated (r = - 0. 409, P＜0.05). Conclusions During the progression of HF, Epac1 expression tends to decrease firstly and increase afterwards,while Epac2 expression declines continually. Epac may be involved in the pathogenesis of HF.

BACKGROUND: Hemorrhagic cystitis remains a common complication of hematopoietlc stem cell transplantation.Granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) affects proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells, adjusts functions of monocytes, granulocytes, lymphocytes and endothelial cells.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the protective effects of GM-CSF bladder irrigation in hemorrhagic cystitis after allogeneic hematopoietic stem call transplantation.DESIGN: Case analysis.PARTICIPANTS: A total of 15 hematopathy patients undergoing allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation at the Zhongshan Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2004 to August 2006 (routine treatment group). A total of 16 hematopathy patients undergoing allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from September 2006 to December 2008 (GM-CSF group).METHODS: In the routine treatment group, patients received mesna, hydration, alkalization and forced diuresis in the prevention of hemorrhagic cystitis. In the GM-CSF group, GM-CSF was infused into the bladder in addition to mesna,hydration, alkalization and forced diuresis in the prevention of hemorrhagic cystitis 24 hours before cyclophosphamide treatment. Catheter was extracted 3 days following cyclophosphamide withdraw. Following washing with saline, the bladder was emptied. 10 mL of saline and 5 mL of lidocaine were added into 300 μg of GM-CSF. The mixture was infused into the bladder for 60-120 minutes.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The following parameters were measured: occurrence of hemorrhagic cystitis and its correlation to graft versus host disease, as well as the occurrence of cytomegalovirus infection and urinary system infection.RESULTS: Compared with routine treatment group, the occurrence rate of hemorrhagic cystitis was significantly decreased in the GM-CSF group (x2=4.39, P < 0.05), mean duration of hemorrhagic cystitis and duration of hospitalization were significantly shortened (t=3.97, P < 0.05; t=3.13, P < 0.05), and the occurrence rate of over grade HI hemorrhagic cystitis was significantly reduced (x2=5.04, P < 0.05). Cystitis degree was associated with degree and duration of graft-versus-host disease (r = 0.76).Compared with the routine treatment group, cytomegalovirus infection rate was slightly decreased in the GM-CSF group (x2=0.28, P> 0.05), and occurrence rate of over grade Ⅲ hemorrhagic cystitis was higher in patients with cytomegalovirus infection.Compared with the routine treatment group, the occurrence rate of urinary system infection was slightly reduced in the GM-CSF group (x2=0.28, P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: GM-CSF bladder irrigation is well tolerated and often effective, and should be considered as a preparative regimen of hemorrhagic cystitis after allogeneic hematopoietic stem call transplantation.

Conclusion Notoginsenoside R1 inhibits SOCE and reduces resting [ Ca2+] i in PASMCs of CH-and MCT-induced PH rats.

Follicular lymphoma (FL) is the most common indolent lymphoma. With the improvement of disease awareness and the introduction of various novel drugs, the 5-year overall survival rate has been more than 90% for the majority of FL patients. However, certain subgroups of FL patients, especially patients who progressed within 24 months after starting front-line therapy, still have worse outcome. This article reviews the progress in genetics, prognostic factors and treatment options of FL that reported at the 61st American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting 2019.

Follicular lymphoma (FL) is the most common indolent B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The overall survival of FL is near 15 years. However, the survival would be significantly shortened in refractory, early-relapsed or transformed setting. The 60th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting reported several latest and optimal approaches to relapsed/refractory FL, with a focus on immune-based therapies and target agents for FL. This paper reviews and makes comments about these clinical trials.
