Objective To observe the protective effect of 2% taurine on corneal endothelial cells injured by benzalkonium chloride in rats. Methods Six piece of corneal endodermis and elastic layer tissue slices were prepared from 6 eyes of 3 SPF SD rats and randomly divided into three groups. The corneal endothelial cells of rats were cultured by tissue block culture for 1 day, then the control group cells were added with 2% taurine solution, while the experimental group cells were added with 2% taurine solution and 0.01% or 0.03% benzalkonium chloride solution. After 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 and 8 days of continuous culture, the growth of corneal endothelial cells in each group was observed under an inverted microscope, and the morphology of endothelial cells was observed under an optical microscope after Wright staining. Results Treated with 0.01% benzalkonium chloride and 2% taurine for 1 day, polygonal endothelial cells appeared on the edge of corneal tissue mass, and the cells were transparent. After 2 days, the number of polygonal cells increased, and there was no fusion growth between cells. After 3 days, the number of polygonal cells decreased and no mitotic signs were observed in endothelial cells. After 4 days, the endothelial nuclei were deeply stained and polygonal cells were rare. After 5 days, the number of endothelial cells decreased, and cell body shrinkage and death occurred. In the experimental group treated with 0.03% benzalammonium chloride and 2% taurine for 1 day, no endothelial cell growth was observed and the cells were sparsely-scattered. In control group, polygonal endothelial cells and a few endothelium-like polygon cells appeared at the edge of tissue blocks after 1 day. After 3 days, the number of polygonal cells at the edge of tissue blocks increased, and there was a phenomenon of gradual fusion growth. After 5 days, the number of endothelial cells increased, and the cells were mostly hexagonal. After 8 days, the endothelial cells formed large sheets, the cell bodies were hexagonal or round, and the nuclei were divided. The growth of corneal endothelial cells in the left and right eyes was uniform, and there was no significant difference in the morphology of the left and right eye endothelial cells in the 0.01% and 0.03% benzalammonium chloride treatment groups and the control group. Conclusion 2% taurine had no protective effect on corneal endothelial cells injured by benzalammonium chloride.

Entinostat plus exemestane in hormone receptor-positive (HR+) advanced breast cancer (ABC) previously showed encouraging outcomes. This multicenter phase 3 trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of entinostat plus exemestane in Chinese patients with HR + ABC that relapsed/progressed after ≥1 endocrine therapy. Patients were randomized (2:1) to oral exemestane 25 mg/day plus entinostat (n = 235) or placebo (n = 119) 5 mg/week in 28-day cycles. The primary endpoint was the independent radiographic committee (IRC)-assessed progression-free survival (PFS). The median age was 52 (range, 28-75) years and 222 (62.7%) patients were postmenopausal. CDK4/6 inhibitors and fulvestrant were previously used in 23 (6.5%) and 92 (26.0%) patients, respectively. The baseline characteristics were comparable between the entinostat and placebo groups. The median PFS was 6.32 (95% CI, 5.30-9.11) and 3.72 (95% CI, 1.91-5.49) months in the entinostat and placebo groups (HR, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.58-0.98; P = 0.046), respectively. Grade ≥3 adverse events (AEs) occurred in 154 (65.5%) patients in the entinostat group versus 23 (19.3%) in the placebo group, and the most common grade ≥3 treatment-related AEs were neutropenia [103 (43.8%)], thrombocytopenia [20 (8.5%)], and leucopenia [15 (6.4%)]. Entinostat plus exemestane significantly improved PFS compared with exemestane, with generally manageable toxicities in HR + ABC (ClinicalTrials.gov #NCT03538171).

Objective:To investigate postoperative pathological diagnosis upgrade of high-grade cervical squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) in postmenopausal women and its influencing factors.Methods:Clinicopathologic data of 378 post-menopausal women with HSIL who underwent cervical conization or total hysterectomy in Shanxi Bethune Hospital between January 2017 and December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to whether the pathological diagnosis was upgraded after operation, they were divided into upgraded group and non-upgraded group. The clinicopathological characteristics of both groups were compared. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of postoperative pathological upgrade.Results:Among 387 patients, 28 patients (7.2%) were postoperatively upgraded to cervical cancer. Compared with the non-upgraded group, the proportions of the following indexes in the upgraded group were higher [the proportion of HSIL detected by cervical thinprep cytologic test (TCT): 57.1% (16/28) vs. 44.6% (160/359); the proportion of HSIL detected by colposcopic impression: 89.3% (25/28) vs. 59.3% (213/359); the proportion of glandular involvement: 46.4% (13/28) vs. 24.0% (86/359); the number of lesion involvement ≥ 2: 82.1% (23/28) vs. 59.6% (214/359); the proportion of positive endocervical curettage (ECC): 64.3% (18/28) vs. 46.0% (165/359)]; and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the proportions of patients stratified by menopausal duration, colporrhagia, gravidity frequency, reproductive frequency, human papillomavirus (HPV) 16/18 infection and multiple HPV infection (all P > 0.05). Multivariate logistic analysis found that colposcopic impression of HSIL ( OR = 6.195, 95% CI 1.432-26.804), glandular involvement ( OR = 2.468, 95% CI 1.050-5.801), and ECC positive ( OR = 3.477,95% CI 1.028-11.764) were independent risk factors for postoperatively upgraded to cancer for postmenopausal HSIL patients in women (all P < 0.05). Conclusion:For post-menopausal women, patients with colposcopic impression of HSIL, glandular involvement and ECC positive should be alert to the risk of postoperatively pathological upgrade.

Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of anti interleukin(IL)-8 monoclonal antibodies on the growth and metastasis of cervical cancer. Methods Involved cervical cells included CaSki cells with high expression of IL-8 and SiHa cell lines with IL-8 plasmid transfected (pcDNA3.1-IL-8-SiHa). Cervical cancer animal model was established on nude mice. Boyden method was used in vitro study to observe the effects of anti IL-8 antibodies on the chemotaxis of high-expressed IL-8 cervical cancer cells. The effect of anti IL-8 antibodies on the growth of cervical cancer cells and nude mice transplantation tumor was observed by the experiment in vivo through reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), TUNEL method. Cell line (CaSki and pcDNA3.1-IL-8-SiHa) modeled nude mice were divided into 5 groups with 5 animals in each group. The blank control group (group Ⅰ) was given the equal volume of phosphate buffer solution (PBS). Negative control group (group Ⅱ) was injected with IgG at the same volume of IgG. Treatment group (group Ⅲ) was injected with anti IL-8 antibodies at dose of 100 μg for once and intervals for once 2 days. Treatment group (group Ⅳ) was injected with anti IL-8 antibodies at dose of 500 μg for once and intervals for once 3 days. Treatment group (group V) was injected with anti IL-8 antibodies at dose of 1 000 μg for once and intervals for once 1 week.Results Experiments in vitro showed that the cell chemotaxis ability of anti IL-8 antibody in CaSki cells and pcDNA3.1-IL-8-SiHa cells was lower than that in the blank control group(CaSki cells:F=289.6,P =0.000; pcDNA3.1-IL-8-SiHa cells:F=79.0,P=0.005).GroupⅣwas taken as the example for its best anti-tumor effect in experiments in vivo. The tumor weight in groupⅣwas lower than that in groupⅠ[CaSki cells: (0.172±0.031) g vs. (0.735± 0.015) g, P< 0.05; pcDNA3.1-IL-8-SiHa cells: (0.400±0.029) g vs. (1.430±0.199) g, P< 0.05]. The tumor volume in groupⅣwas less than that in groupⅠ[CaSki cells:(0.049±0.028)cm3vs.(0.214±0.016) cm3,P<0.05;pcDNA3.1-IL-8-SiHa cells:(0.063±0.022)cm3vs.(0.600±0.072)cm3,P<0.05].The tumor growth curve also showed that tumor growth was slow, and the time of tumor formation as well as survival time was prolonged in anti IL-8 antibody treated group. The expression of mRNA in IL-8 in group IV was lower than that in group Ⅰ (CaSki cells: 0.58±0.06 vs. 1.15±0.13, P< 0.05; pcDNA3.1-IL-8-SiHa cells: 0.69±0.08 vs. 1.16±0.13,P<0.05).The protein expression of IL-8 in groupⅣwas lower than that in groupⅠ(CaSki cells:126±29 vs.411±112,P<0.05;pcDNA3.1-IL-8-SiHa cells:134±47 vs.327±69,P<0.05).Apoptotic index in groupⅣwas higher than that in groupⅠ(CaSki cells:81.8±3.0 vs.26.0±5.6,P<0.05;pcDNA3.1-IL-8-SiHa cells: 84.4±3.6 vs. 32.0±4.9, P<0.05). Conclusion Anti IL-8 antibody can inhibit cell migration of human cervical cancer in vitro, inhibit growth and metastasis of transplantation tumor in vivo, and promote apoptosis and necrosis with a dose-dependent way in vivo.

Objective To study the distribution of connexin 43 (Cx43) in cervical cancer HeLa cells, and to verify the localization of Cx43 in mitochondria. Methods HeLa cells were segregated into cytoplasm, cell nucleus, mitochondria and supernatant after segregation by using the method of homogenate and centrifuge. Immunoelectron microscope was used to observe the morphology of mitochondria and the localization as well as the distribution of Cx43 in HeLa cells. Voltage-dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1) was used to confirm the localization of mitochondria. Immunofluorescence was used to costain HeLa cells with Cx43 and mitochondrial marker VDAC1 to verify mitochondria localization of Cx43 in cervical cancer HeLa cells. Then Western blot was used to quantify the expression of Cx43 in fractions (cytoplasmic fraction,nuclear, mitochondria and post mitochondrial supernatant). Mitochondrial markers including VDAC1 and cytochrome c oxidaseⅣ(COXⅣ) were used to confirm mitochondria. Plasma membrane marker (LHR) was used to confirm plasma membrane. Results Immunoelectron microscope confirmed that the normal mitochondria or cystic swollen one could be seen in the complete HeLa cells and the detached HeLa cells mitochondria, with the presence of Cx43 and VDAC1 in detached mitochondria. Immunofluorescence showed Cx43 colocalized with VDAC1. There was a significant difference in the Cx43 expressions of the subcellular structure in the HeLa cells [cytoplasm (1.23±0.11), cell nucleus (0.39±0.09), mitochondria (3.67±0.59), supernatant after segregation (0.16±0.06); F =84.17, P <0.05]. It also showed that the relative amount of Cx43 in mitochondria was enriched. Conclusions Cx43 is enriched in mitochondria in cervical cancer HeLa cells. Therefore, Cx43 in mitochondria might be a potential target in diagnosis, therapy and prognosis of cervical cancer.
