Objective To analyze the effects of miR-26a on proliferation,apoptosis,migration and invasion of uveal melanoma cell.Methods The expressions level of miR-26a in the uveal melanoma cell lines SP6.5 and M23 and normal cell line ARPE-19 was detected by qRT-PCR.The SP6.5 cell line was divided into miR-26a mimics group (transfect with miR-26a mimics) and NC group (transfect with scramble by Lipofectamine 2000).The proliferation and apoptosis ability were measured by CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry.The cell wound scratch assay and transwell assay were used to detect the migration and invasion ability.The expression level of enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) protein was measured by Western blot.Results The expressions level of miR-26a in uveal melanoma cell line SP6.5 was 0.250 ± 0.029,M23 was 0.350 ±0.017,which was significantly lower than 1.0 in normal cell line ARPE-19 (all P ＜0.001).The OD450 value at 72 hours,96 hours and 120 hours in miR-26a mimics group (0.69 ±--0.09,1.23 ± 0.15,2.12 ± 0.23) were significantly lower than those in NC group (1.39-0.11,2.35 ±0.25,3.53 ±0.27) (all P ＜0.05).The apoptosis rate of miR-26a mimics group (15.60％ ± 2.30％) was significantly higher than that of NC group (5.00％ ± 0.70％) (P ＜ 0.01).The wound healing rate of miR-26a mimics group (23.7％ ±2.1％) was significantly lower than that of NC group (68.9 ±5.1％) (P ＜0.01).While the invasive cell number (45.1 ± 3.9) was also significantly less than NC group (115.3 ± 8.9) (P ＜ 0.01).The expression level of EZH2 protein in miR-26a mimics group (0.39 ±0.09) was significantly lower than that of NC group (1.0,P ＜0.01).Conclusion MiR-26a is low expressed in uveal melanoma cells.Over expression of miR-26a inhibit the proliferation,migration and invasion of uveal melanoma cell,and promote the apoptosis,which may be associated with down-regulated expression of EZH2.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of sufentanil preconditioning on acute lung injury induced by intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats and the role of opioid receptors.MethodsForty-eight male Wistar rats weighing 200-250 g were randomly divided into 6 groups ( n =8 each):sham operation group (group S) ; I/R group; sufentanil preconditioning group (group SPC) ; COTP (μ receptor antagonist) + SPC group; NTD (δ receptor antagonist) + SPC group and nor-BNI (κ receptor antagonist) + SPC group.Intestinal I/R was produced by occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery for 45 min followed by 2 h reperfusion in groups I/R,SPC,COTP +SPC,NTD + SPC and nor-BNI + SPC.Sufentanil 10 μg/kg was injected intravenously at 10 min before ischemia in groups SPC,COTP + SPC,NTD + SPC and nor-BNI + SPC.COTP 1 mg/kg and NTD 5 mg/kg were injected intravenously at 10 min before sufentanil injection in groups COTP + SPC and NTD + SPC respectively,while nor-BNI 5 mg/kg was injected intravenously at 15 min before sufentanil administration in group nor-BNI + SPC.The animals were sacrificed at 2 h of reperfusion,the intestinal tissue was removed for microscopic examination and intestinal damage was assessed and scored according to Chiu.Left lung tissue was also removed for microscopic examination (1 =normal,4 =severely injured).The apoptosis in lung cells was detected using TUNEL and apoptosis index (AI) was calculated.The expression of Bcl-2 and Bax proteins in lung tissues was detected using immuno-histochemistry and Bcl-2/Bax ratio was calculated.ResultsCompared with group S,Chiu's score,lung injury score and AI were significantly increased,expression of Bcl-2 and Bax proteins was up-regulated,Bcl-2/Bax ratio was significantly decreased in the other groups ( P ＜ 0.01 ).Compared with group I/R,Chiu' s score,lung injury score and AI were significantly decreased,Bcl-2 protein expression was up-regulated,Bax protein expression was downregulated,and Bcl-2/Bax ratio was significantly increased in group SPC (P ＜ 0.01 ).Compared with group SPC,Chiu's score,lung injury score and AI were significantly increased,Bcl-2 protein expression was down-regulated,Bax protein expression was up-regulated,and Bcl-2/Bax ratio was significantly decreased in groups COTP + SPC,NTD + SPC and nor-BNI + SPC ( P ＜ 0.01 ).ConclusionSufentanil preconditioning can attenuate lung injury induced by intestinal I/R by activation of opioid receptors in rats.

Objective To investigate the misdiagnosed vascular vagovagla reflexes (VVR) and the treat-ments during interventional therapy for peripheral anerial disease (PAD). Methods The clinical data of 5 patients with VVRs from 128 PAD patients undergoing interventional therapy so as to analyse the causes for the misdiag-noses and then render pertinent treatment. Results The VVR in the 5 patients belonged to mixed type and all cas-es occurred after intervention and initially misdiagnosed. All patients were recovered well without adverse reaction. Conclusion Intervention therapy for PAD may be susceptible to VVR. Prompt management may bring in a good prognosis when VVR happens.

Background and purpose:To investigate the induction of apoptosis by epigallocatechin-3-gallate(EGCG) in xenograft nude mice with human gastric cancer cells and its molecular mechanism. Methods:Human gastric cancer cells were planted into nude mice in order to establish the cancer model, the different dosages of EGCG were injected intraperitoneally in the nude mice. After treatment, flow cytometry (FCM) was used to detect the apoptosis of implanted tumor cells. Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of apoptosis-related genes like Bal-2 and Bax in implanted tumor.Results:EGCG significantly inhibited tumor growth after being injecting intraperitoneally in the nude mice. The apoptotic cells in implanted tumor could be detected by flow cytometry with PI staining. The expressions of Bax、Caspase-3 were upregulated and Bcl-2 expression was downregulated in implanted tumor.Conclusions:EGCG could significantly inhibit tumor growth in xenograft nude mice with human gastric cancer cells through inducing apoptosis. The down-regulation of Bcl-2 expression and up-regulation of Bax expression observed could result in the activation of Caspase-3, the pathway might account for the induction of apoptosis.

Objective: To investigate the effect of (-) epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and black tea polyphenols on the lipid metabolism related gene expression profile of human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells. Method: The total RNA was isolated from HepG2 cells treated with EGCG (5? mol/L), black tea polyphenols (5?g/ml) or 0.1%DMSO (control) for 8 h and was hybridized to Human 14k cDNA microarray for gene expression profile analysis. Real-time RT-PCR was conducted to confirm microarray data. Results: A total of 13 and 29 genes related to lipid metabolism showed differential change after EGCG or black tea polphenols treatment respectively, of which six genes showed consistent expression. The results of real-time PCR were consistent with the microarray data. Conclusion: The mechanism(s) by which EGCG and black tea polyphenols exerts its effects on lipid metabolism are comprehensive. The novel target identified in this study may provide new evidence for further investigation in the hypolipidemic effects of tea polyphenols.

Objective To investigate the role of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) on the diagnostic efficacy of ultrasound-guided percutaneous biopsy of peripheral lung lesions. Methods Ninty-six patients with pleural-based lesions underwent percutaneous ultrasound-guided biopsy. Of the 96 patients,54patients underwent CEUS before biopsy and enhancement information was referred for the selecting of tissue sampling site. The rest of 42 patients didn' t undergo CEUS before biopsy. The difference in the diagnostic accuracy between the two groups was analyzed to evaluate the value of CEUS before biopsy.Results Of the 52 patients in the CEUS group,48 were malignant,and 6 were benign. Of the 42 patients in the un-CEUS group,36 were malignant, and 6 were benign. Necrosis (areas lacking of enhancement) was demonstrated in 41.7％ (20/48) of the patients with malignant lesions in CEUS group, and necrosis incidence was increased with the increase of the dimension of the malignant lesions. No necrosis area was demonstrated in 6 benign lesions. The rate of successful initial biopsy in CEUS group (98.1 ％ ,53/54) was statistically higher than that in un-CEUS group ( 85.7％, 36/42 ) ( P ＜ 0.05 ). Tissue necrosis and denaturalization attributed to most of the inconclusive pathologic diagnosis. Conclusions CEUS before transthoracic peripheral lung lesion biopsy improved the diagnostic accuracy of the procedure by providing information for differentiating viable or necrotic tissue and consequently provide more accurate information about the site of biopsy.

Objective To assess the left ventricular(LV) regional myocardial systolic function after bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) injection in rabbits with acute myocardial infarction(AMI) by 2-dimensional ultrasound speckle-tracking imaging.Methods Twenty-four healthy rabbits were randomly divided into three groups:group of sham-operated,group of masculine control (AMI was induced by ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery),and group of cell infusion(after two weeks of AMI,bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were injected to the region of AMI).Four weeks after cell deliver two-dimensional strain images were acquired from LV short-axis view(at the levels of mitral annulus,muscle papillary and apex),radial strain rate (SrR),circumference strain rate (SrC),rotation rate (RotR) and rotation (Rot) of three levels in short-axis views were measured by speckle-tracking imaging.The conventional echocardiography indices included LV diameter of end diastole(LVEDd),LV ejection fraction(LVEF),LV fractional shortening(LVFS).The catheter indices included LV systolic pressure(LVSP),LV end diastolic pressure (LVEDP)and maximum rate of rise and descend of LV pressure(LVdp/dtmax).ResultsCompared with sham-operated group,rabbits had significantly larger LVEDd,lower LVEF and LVFS,lower LVSP and LVdp/dtmax,higher LVEDP in control group,SrR,SrC,RotR and Rot of LV anterior regional myocardial function and global myocardial function of three levels in short-axis views were lower.Compared with control group,the rabbits had significantly smaller LVEDd,larger LVEF and LVFS,larger LVSP and LVdp/dtmax,lower LVEDP,SrR,SrC,RotR and Rot of LV anterior regional myocardial function and global myocardial function of three levels in short-axis views were larger in group of cell infusion.There was no significant between group of cell infusion and group of sham-operated.Conclusions Speckle tracking imaging can evaluate the regional myocardial systolic function of the area of BMSCs transplantation accurately.
