ABSTRACT
[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To study the expression of WNT5B in the breast cancer and further to discuss the correlation between WNT5B and clinicopathologic characteristics of breast cancer.METHODS:The expression of WNT5B at mRNA and protein levels was measured by real-time PCR and Western blot in 67 cases of breast cancer and the tissue adjacent to carcinoma.In addition, the immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of WNT5B in the breast cancer and the tissue adjacent to carcinoma.The relationships between WNT5B expression and clinicopathologic indexes were also analyzed.RESULTS:The expression of WNT5B in the breast cancer was obviously lower than that in the tissue adjacent to carcinoma (P20 mm group (P0.05) in the breast cancer. CONCLUSION:The expression of WNT5B decreases obviously in breast cancer.The expression of WNT5B is related to primary tumor size, which provides new ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer, suggesting that WNT5B may be a new molecular marker for prognosis of breast cancer.
ABSTRACT
Aim To develop a simple,rapid and ac-curate analysis method for determination of chiral ibu-profen in Beagle dog plasma.Method The plasma sample was submitted to liquid - liquid extraction u-sing hexane /isopropanol (95 ∶5,V/V),with ketopro-fen as the internal standard (IS).The separation was accomplished in a Lux 5u Cellulose-3 (250 mm·4.6 mm,5 μm)column,and the mobile phase consisted of methanol and a mixture of 1 mmol·L -1 ammonium acetate-methanol-formic acid (90 ∶1 0 ∶0.2,V/V/V) with the volume ratio of 82 ∶1 8 at a flow rate of 0.8 mL· min -1 .The mass spectrometer consisted of an ESI interface operating at negative ionization mode and the detection was performed using multiple reaction monitoring at the transitions of m /z 205.2 /1 61 .2 for ibuprofen and m /z 253.1 /209.2 for ketoprofen (IS). Method validation included the evaluation of the matrix effect, extraction recovery, linearity, lower LOQ, within-run and between-run precision,stability and di-lution effect.Results The calibration curve was line-ar across the concentration range of 0.2 ~50 mg·L -1 for each ibuprofen enantiomer with a lower LOQ of 0.2 mg·L -1 .The within-run and between-run precision (RSD%)was in the range 1 .01 % ~1 3.1 % for each ibuprofen.The pharmacokinetic parameters for orally single dose of (S +)and racemic ibuprofen in Beagle dogs were as follows: Cmax , T1 /2 , AUC(0-t) were (82.98 ±1 4.83 )mg·L -1 ,(3.21 7 ±0.7298)h, (362.0 ±58.67)h·mg·L -1 for (S +)ibuprofen and 70.62 /74.48 mg·L -1 ,1 .520 /5.432 h ,1 77.8 /649.6 h·mg·L -1 for (R -)/(S +)ibuprofen,re-spectively.Conclusions A simple,rapid,accurate, high sensitivity and repeatability method has been suc-cessfully developed,which can analyze the concentra-tions of (R -)/(S +)ibuprofen in Beagle dog plasma simultaneously.The method could be applied for the investigation of pharmacokinetics of ibuprofen enanti-omers in Beagle dogs.
