Objective: To study the effects and the mechanism of isolinderalactone on inhibiting the growth of human breast cancer MCF-7 cells. Methods: Human breast cancer MCF-7 cells were cultured in vitro and treated respectively with indicated concentrations of isolinderalactone by cell culture technique. The proliferation rate was detected by MTT method; Flow cytometry and TUNEL assay were used to observe the effects of isolinderalactone on cell cycle, mitochondrial membrane potential and apoptosis in MCF-7 cells; The apoptosis related protein expression levels were determined by Western blotting. Results: Isolinderalactone significantly inhibited the proliferation of MCF-7 cells by inducing cell apoptosis in a time and concentration dependent manner and induced cell cycle arrest at G2/M phases. The mitochondrial membrane potential was depolarized; And isolinderalactone up-regulated the expressions of apoptosis related proteins Bax and cleaved Caspase-3 and down-regulated the expressions of apoptosis related proteins Bcl-2. Conclusion: Isolinderalactone shows obvious anti-cancer activities by inducing cell apoptosis. The mechanism of inducing apoptosis may be associated with the reduction of mitochondrial membrane potential and activation of caspase pathway.

This review introduced the research progress of covalent modification strategies in local anesthetic drug delivery systems. As a commonly used and multimodal analgesic drug, local anesthetics have limited duration of action and potential toxicity in clinical application. In order to prolong the analgesic effect and reduce systemic toxicity, researchers are committed to the development of sustained-release local anesthetics with long-lasting dose-controlled-release functions. When it comes to the delivery of local anesthetics, the covalent modification strategy is a key approach. By covalently binding drugs to large molecule carriers, covalent modification strategies can improve drug stability, targeting and delivery efficiency. Macromolecular prodrugs can modulate the kinetic process of the drug, so that the drug is released in the form of the active ingredient and achieve better therapeutic effects. In recent years, stimulus-responsive macromolecular prodrugs have become a research hotpot for local anesthetic drug delivery systems, and the stimulus-responsive performance of macromolecular prodrugs can rapidly release drugs under internal and external stimulus conditions, and maintain low toxicity and high efficiency in blood circulation and normal tissues. These emerging research directions provide important guidance for prolonging the analgesic effect of local anesthetics and reducing systemic toxicity, and provide new idea for the development of more effective drug delivery systems in the future.

AIM:To observe the efficacy of intravitreal conbercept injection for chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC).METHODS: Nine eyes of 9 patients diagnosed as chronic CSC between October 2015 to May 2016 were treated with an intravitreal injection of conbercept (0.5mg/0.05mL) (six patients were given the same does of intravitreal injection again at 1mo after the first injection).Follow-up observation was at 1, 2, and 6mo after injection.Observed indicators included best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure, optical coherence tomography (OCT), fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA), choroidal indocyanine green angiography (ICGA), macular fovea thickness (CMT), subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT).RESULTS:Seven of the 9 patients responded significantly to the drug, while 2 patients had no response.The CMT was 373.12±72.43μm at baseline, which decreased significantly to 332.05±67.13μm, 282.24±62.30μm and 225.56±71.08μm at 1, 2 and 6mo after the intravitreal injection.The mean thickness of SFCT was 422.11±64.82μm before treatment.The choroidal thickness of non-responsive patients before treatment was below average, respectively 353μm and 365μm.The SFCT of 1, 2, and 6mo after treatment was 391.45±75.24μm, 365.53±63.07μm, 355.40±66.65μm.Before treatment and 1mo after, there was no significant difference (P=0.074), but there was statistically significant (P<0.01) between those of before and 2mo and 6mo after.The mean BCVA of the prior treatment was 0.53±0.32, the after treatment was 0.65±0.20, there was no different between the two(P>0.05).CONCLUSION: Intravitreal conbercept injection in chronic CSC may have some effect in accelerating subertinal fluid resolution and decreasing the CMT.The SFCT within 6mo after treatment was significantly lower than pretreatment.The SFCT may be an indicator of whether patients respond.

OBJECTIVETo explore the function and motor pathway of remained cerebral hemisphere by studying motor evoked potential of both upper extremities on patients long term after anatomical hemispherectomy.

METHODSFive patients after anatomical hemispherectomy, who were marked 5 dispersive sites on head to perform transcranial magnetic stimulation. Recording motor evoked potential of target muscles (brachioradialis muscle and abductor pollicis brevis) of both upper extremities respectively when muscle resting and contracting.

RESULTSOnly affected abductor pollicis brevis of case 2 and only affected brachioradialis muscle of case 4 and 5 recorded motor evoked potential when muscle resting. Motor evoked potential of some cases can be recorded simultaneously in homonymous muscles of both sides when muscle resting or contracting.

CONCLUSIONSThere exists motor cortex that controls movement of ipsilateral limbs and also ipsilateral motor pathway of corticospinal connection at patients after anatomical hemispherectomy. It also means that the motor function of affected limbs has potency to recover well after hemispherectomy. The mirror movement after hemispherectomy is possible relate to overlap of both limbs' motor cortex.

The objective of study was to explore the influence of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) on migration of cord blood CD34(+) cells and their mechanism of migration. The expressions of receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), toll-like receptor-2 (TLR2) and TLR4 were detected by flow cytometry. The CD34(+) cells in umbilical cord blood (CB) were enriched by MiniMACS and were exposed to various concentration of HMGB1 (10, 50, 100, 1, 000 ng/ml), then the migration effect of HMGB1 on umbilical cord blood (UCB) CD34(+) cell count was determined by microscopy, the chemotactic index was calculated. The CD34(+) cells untreated with HMGB1 were used as control. The results indicated that the purity of the isolated CD34(+) cells was more than 98%. The HMGB1 could promote the migration of CD34(+) cells, and the migration effect of HMGB1 on CD34(+) cells in certain concentrations gradually increased along with raise of concentration, the strongest effect was observed in concentration of 100 ng/ml, there was significant difference as compared with control (p < 0.01). Anti-RAGE antibody partially inhibited the migration effect of HMGB1 on CD34(+) cells. It is concluded that the HMGB1 in certain concentration can enhance migration of CD34(+) cells, which may be mediated through RAGE.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effects of ytterbium citrate on human liver carcinoma HepG2 cell line and the potential mechanisms.

METHODSThe HepG2 cells were cultured with DMEM medium and divided into different groups in the following media, in serum-free medium as control, different concentration (0.01 - 5.00 mmol/L) [YbCit(2)](3-)+serum-free medium as treatment group, MTT assay was used to measure the viability of the cells; 2.00 mmol/L [YbCit(2)](3-)+serum-free medium was used as treatment group, and Hoechst 33258 staining was used to detect apoptosis in HepG2 cells. Differential proteomic analysis, assay of intracellular H(2)O(2) levels and mitochondrial transmembrane potential were performed to study the effects of [YbCit(2)](3-) on HepG2 cells and the potential mechanisms.

RESULTSThe data showed that 72 h treatment of [YbCit(2)](3-) at 2.00 - 5.00 mmol/L significantly inhibited cell proliferation, and the IC(50) was (2.46 ± 0.23) mmol/L. After treatment with 2.00 mmol/L [YbCit(2)](3-) for 48 h and 72 h, Hoechst 33258 staining demonstrated that [YbCit(2)](3-) induced significantly increased apoptosis in HepG2 cells. After treatment with 2.00 mmol/L [YbCit(2)](3-) for 72 h, two dimensional gel electrophoresis and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry analysis revealed 14 differentially expressed proteins between [YbCit(2)](3-)-treated cells and the control cells. These proteins mainly included cofilin1, peroxiredoxin6, S100 calcium-binding protein A6, and proteasome 26S non-ATPase subunit 13 isoform 3 and so on. These proteins played important roles in the processes of anti-apoptosis, oxidation reduction, cell proliferation and protein degradation. The mitochondrial membrane potential were investigated, the results showed the red and green fluorescence ratio was 2.45 ± 0.28 in the control group, 1.56 ± 0.23 in 24 h group, 1.16 ± 0.18 in 48 h group, compared with the control, the differences were significant (F = 23.97, P = 0.001). The results of H(2)O(2) detection showed the fluorescence intensity was 20.00 ± 2.08 in the control group, 40.00 ± 5.50 in 24 h group, and 48.00 ± 2.03 in 48 h group, compared with the control, the differences were significant (F = 48.40, P = 0.000). The results indicated a significant reduction in mitochondrial transmembrane potential and significant increase in H2O2 generation were observed in [YbCit(2)](3-)-treated cells.

CONCLUSIONThese results suggested that [YbCit(2)](3-) could induce apoptosis of HepG2 cells through the mechanisms involving oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction.
