Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of actin gamma1(ACTG1)downregulation on apoptosis in gastric cancer cells line HGC-27.Methods Stable ACTG1 knockdown HGC-27 cell line was constructed by CRISPR/Cas9,ACTG1 knockdown was verified by DNA sequencing and Western blot,apoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry,Western blot detected the expression level of apoptosis-related proteins Bcl2-associated X protein(Bax),B cell lymphoma 2 family protein(Bcl2)and PI3K/AKT signal pathway-related proteins AKT and p-AKT.Results HGC-27 cell lines with stable knockdown of ACTG1 were constructed,and the ACTG1 protein levels were decreased in the sgACTG1-1 and sgACTG1-2 groups compared with the Control group.Compared with the apoptosis rate in the Control group(6.54%±0.67%),cell apoptosis rate in the sgACTG1-1 and sgACTG1-2 groups(10.11%±0.46%,14.67%±0.17%)were significantly increased,the differences were statistically significant(t=-7.58,-20.28,all P<0.01).Compared the Control group,the Bax protein levels in the sgACTG1-1 and sgACTG1-2 groups(0.89±0.02,1.00±0.08 vs 0.71±0.03)were significantly increased(t=-8.14,-5.87),the level of Bcl2 protein(0.49±0.06,0.39±0.06 vs 0.65±0.07)were significantly decreased(t=3.09,5.35),the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05).Compared with the Control group,the AKT protein levels in the sgACTG1-1 and sgACTG1-2 groups(0.95±0.10,0.43±0.09 vs 1.17±0.06)and the P-AKT protein level(0.38±0.08,0.28±0.12 vs 0.70±0.14)were significantly decreased,the differences were statistically significant(t=3.20,12.13;3.44,3.85,all P<0.05).Conclusion Downregulation of ACTG1 inhibits the expression of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway related proteins AKT,p-AKT and promotes gastric cancer cells line HGC-27 apoptosis.

Objective To investigate the effect of high dose mifepristone and high dose progesterone in the treatment of patients with endometrial carcinoma and to explore the possible mechanisms associating with them Methods Thirty untreated patients diagnosed as endometrial carcinoma through dilation and curettage of the uteri were divided into 3 groups at random Each group was given medroxyprogesterone acetate(MPA),(500 mg/day) or mifepristone(MIF),(100 mg/day)or MIF(100 mg/day)+ MPA(500 mg/day)for 5 days respectively On the sixth day, hysterectomy was performed on these patients The endometrial cancer specimen of post hysterectomy was compared with the one of pre administrating The morphologic changes of the endometrial cancer cells were observed through light microscope Immunohistochemistry assay (SP method) was applied to determine the localization and immunoreactive intensity of proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA), estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), B cell leukemia lymphoma 2 (bcl 2), bcl 2 associated X protein(bax) and CD 44 v6 Results Better differentiation degree and active excretion were observed in all of the post hysterectomy endometrial specimen In the same time, apoptosis of carcinoma cells was observed The most significant changes were seen in the MIF+MPA group In the MPA group,the pre treatment and post treatment expression of PR(2 9?1 1,1 6?0 8),ER(2 8?0 9,1 4?0 9),PCNA(0 84?0 10,0 60?0 12),bcl 2(0 236?0 089,0 157?0 981) and CD 44 v6 (4 6?1 8,2 5?1 9) were all decreased(all P 0 05) In the MIF+MPA group, the expression of PR(3 2?1 0,0 8?0 8),ER(2 7?0 9,0 7 ?0 9 ),PCNA(0 81?0 09,0 25?0 09),bcl 2(0 225?0 091,0 066?0 009)and CD 44 v6(4 5?1 9,2 7?1 6) were all decreased(all P

Objective:To investigate the influence of fetal liver AFT024 cells on the transfection efficiency of multidrug resistant gene 1(MDR1)and the in vitro expansion of CD34+ cells derived from umbilical cord blood.Methods:CD34+ cells were isolated from human umbilical cord blood by MACS CD34 Progenitor Cell Isolation Kit and co-cultured with AFT024 cells(AFT024 group)or cultured alone(control group)for 7 days.During the subsequent 14 days,retrovirus carrying MDR1 gene was supplemented twice a week to transfect CD34+ cells.On the 7th,14th and 21st day after culture,the number of total nucleated cells(TNC)was counted,the ratio of CD34+ cells was assayed by flow cytometry(FCM)and the number of CD34+ cells was calculated,and colony-forming cells(CFC)were counted by methylcellulose cultures.RT-PCR method was used to detect the level of MDR1 mRNA in the transfected cells.The expression and function of P-glycoprotein(P-gp)were evaluated by FCM assay and Rhodamine-123 efflux assay,respectively.The gene transfection efficiency was calculated by drug-resistant colony-forming cells assay.Results:(1)The MDR1 mRNA level in AFT024 group than that in control group.The gene transfection efficiency in AFT024 group was significantly higher than that in control group(46.0% vs 15.2%,P0.05).On the 14th day,the expansion fold of TNCs in control group was significantly higher than that in AFT024 group(P0.05).The expansion folds of CD34+ cells and CFCs in the AFT024 group were significantly higher than that of the control group(P
