OBJECTIVE To explore the antitumor effect and mechanism of total alkaloids of Gelsemium elegans （TA） and sempervirine （SPV） in vitro. METHODS The effects of low， medium and high concentrations of TA （50， 100， 200 μg/mL） and SPV （10， 30， 50 μmol/L） on the morphology of human hepatoma cells （HepG2， Bel-7402）， human lung cancer cells （A549） and human colon cancer cells （HCT-8） were observed， and the toxicity of TA and SPV to four tumor cells was monitored. The effects of TA and SPV on the contents of caspase-3 and caspase-9 in the supernatant of HCT-8 cells， the protein expressions of phosphorylated protein kinase B （p-Akt） （Thr308， Ser473）， B-cell lymphoma 2 （Bcl-2）， Bcl-2-related X protein （Bax）， survivin， C/EBP-homologous protein （CHOP）， immunoglobulin binding protein （Bip） and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3Ⅱ （LC3Ⅱ） in HCT-8 cells were detected. RESULTS After the intervention of TA and SPV， the volume reduction and nuclear shrinkage were founded in four tumor cells； the cell activity decreased to varying degrees， among which TA and SPV had the best inhibitory effect on HCT-8 cells. After the intervention of TA and SPV， the contents of caspase-3 and caspase-9 in the supernatant of HCT-8 cells， the protein expressions of Bax， CHOP， Bip and LC3Ⅱ all increased to different degrees， while the protein expressions of p-Akt （Thr308， Ser473）， Bcl-2 and survivin in HCT-8 cells all decreased to different degrees. CONCLUSIONS TA and SPV have inhibitory effects on the above four tumor cells， and the inhibitory effect on HCT-8 cells is the best. The mechanism of their action on HCT-8 cells may be related to promoting apoptosis， activating endoplasmic reticulum stress and autophagy.

To establish a disease risk prediction model based on genetic susceptibility genes and environmental risk factors， which can target high-risk population as early as possible， and intervene in the environmental risk factors in this population. Moreover， accurate screening of genetically susceptible populations can enhance the efficiency of health system. In recent years， with the maturation and cost reduction of high-throughput gene testing， gene testing has been widely used in individual clinical decision-making and will play a more important role in medical and health decision-making. The correlation between genetic testing and disease risk prediction is increasing， making it a prominent research topic in this field. This review summarizes the approaches for establishing and evaluating risk prediction models and discusses potential future challenges and opportunities.

This study aimed at exploring the effects of Guttiferone K (GUTK),a compound isolated from G.yunnanensis,on inhibiting the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells both in vitro and in vivo.MTT assay was used to detect the inhibitory effects of GUTK on the proliferation of five human pancreatic cancer cell lines.Western blot was adopted to detect the apoptosis-related protein expressions of Caspase-3,poly adenosinediphosphate-ribose polymerase (PARP) and Bcl-xL.For in vivo study,the human pancreatic cancer cell MIA PaCa-2 was orthotopically injected into the pancreatic tail of the orthotopic mice.One week later,GUTK was administered by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection every other day for 4 weeks.The volume and weight of the tumor tissue were measured.The protein expression level of cleaved caspase-3 in tumor tissue of all the groups was quantified by immunohistochemistry.As a result,it was found that GUTK effectively inhibited the proliferation of the five human pancreatic cancer cell lines at a low concentration.GUTK induced caspase-related apoptosis by triggering a series of events in MIA PaCa-2 cells including cleaved Caspase-3 and PARP activation,Bcl-xL down-regulation,and eventually cell death in a time and dose dependent manner.Furthermore,in vivo study revealed that intraperitoneal injection of GUTK significantly suppressed the growth of pancreatic cancer cells in the orthotopic mouse models,and the protein level of cleaved caspase-3 was increased in the GUTK and gemcitabine treated groups.It was concluded that GUTK induced apoptosis in human pancreatic cancer both in vitro and in vivo,and was potential to develop into a clinical anticancer agent.

Objective To investigate the occurrence circumstance of acute stress disorder(ASD),clinical features and related risk factors,in the officers and soldiers who had gone to Beichuan county to provide disaster relief.Methods We used the self-general questionnaire,post-traumatic stress symptoms self-rating scale(PCL-C),perceived social support scale(PSSS),and coping style questionnaires(SCSQ)to assess the 126 subjects,combining with semi-structured interviews to determine and compare the ASD group and control group,and then analyzed the related factors.Results The prevalence rate of ASD officers and soldiers was 13.49%,with main symptoms of repeatedly breaking into painful memories,nightmares,reproducing the scenes of traumatic events,strong trouble of psychological pain,decreased interest,sleep disorders and emotional instability.These main symptoms of ASD interacts each other,and were reduced with positive response and good social support.Conclusion In the phase of acute stress(one month),the officers and soldiers taking part in earthquake relief have symptoms of ASD,so we should strengthen the necessary psychological assessment and comprehensive psychological intervention means,in order to slow down psychological trauma after disaster,prevent and reduce the possibility that ASD turns into post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD).
