ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effects of cisplatin on the proliferation and autophagy of endometrial carcinoma Ishikawa cells.Methods Ishikawa cell proliferation was detected by MTS assay after the cells were treated with CDDP.To assess the level of autophagy,transmission electron microscope and Western blot were used to detect LC3 and Beclin1 expression;fluorescence microscopy was used to observe the fluorescence aggregation of green fluorescent protein and microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3 fusionprotein (GFP-LC3).Results Cisplatin of 10 g/mL inhibited the proliferation of Ishikawa cells,with an increase of time and concentration,the inhibition of cell proliferation was significantly elevated (P ＜ 0.01).Transmission electron microscopy showed that under a condition of cisplatin on Ishikawa endometrial cancer cell,autophagy occurred.With an increase of concentration and dosage,Western blot showed that autophagy related protein LC3 expression was up-regulated,but becline-1 had no obvious change.LC3 expression level was higher in 12h-treatment with 20 μg/mL cisplatin group than in the control group,and was higher in 24h-treatment group than in 12h-treatment group.Conclusions Cisplatin inhibits proliferation of Ishikawa cells and induces autophagy of the cells in a time-and dose-dependent manner.Autophagy related MAP-LC3 is involved in the molecular mechanisms of autophagy induced by cisplatin in endometrial carciHom.
ABSTRACT
With the roaring development of bioscience and its application in medicine, molecular diagnosis specially gene diagnosis shows striking advantages in disease diagnosis, treatment and prognostic assessment.Mo-lecular diagnosis mainly includes prenatal genes diagnosis the children of gene diagnosis and adult genetic diagno-sis.Molecular diagnosis is expounded from the aspects of medical practice in the field of medical ethics problem and how to correct the medical practice of molecular diagnosis of work, designed to guide all the medical workers to form the correct ethics in the field of molecular diagnostics.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the expression level of human telomerase RNA component (hTERC) and C-myc in cervical lesions.Methods Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was applied to detect hTERC and C-myc expression in 62 cases of cervical tissue including 35 cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia,8 cases of invasive cervical cancer,19 cases of inflammation as controls.Results The positive rates of hTERC on chromosome 3 in chronic cervicitis organizations,CIN Ⅰ,CIN Ⅱ-Ⅲ and cervical cancer were 5.3 ％ (1/19),16.7 ％(2/12),87.0 ％ (20/23),87.5 ％ (7/8) (x2 =36.299,x2 =40.237,P ＜0.01).The positive rates of C-myc in chronic cervical inflammation organization,CIN Ⅰ,CIN Ⅱ-Ⅲ and cervical cancer were 5.3 ％ (1/19),8.3 ％ (1/12),78.3 ％ (18/23),62.5 ％ (5/8) (x2 =30.200,x2 =34.224,P ＜0.01 ).The differences among groups were statistically significant.hTERC had a positively correlation with C-myc expression (r =0.514,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion The expression of hTERC and C-myc on chromosome 3 is closely related to cervical cancer progression.
ABSTRACT
Background and purpose:The most serious aspect of cancer is the emergence of metastases in organs distant from the primary tumor, since most deaths from cancer are due to metastases. In recent years, a series of studies has been undertaken both in vitro and in vivo, and demonstrated that the CD133+ hematopoietic stem cell is effective in increasing mice tumor cell metastases, but the efficacy of CD133+ stem cells is not well studied for human cancer.We investigated the effects of CD133+ stem cells on the proliferation, adhesion and migration in human colorectal neoplasm cell line SW480.Methods:CD133+ cells were separated from fresh cord blood mononuclear cells(MNC) by Ficoll density gradient centrifugation and magnetic activated cell-sorting system(MACS).The treatment group was the co-culture of CD133+ cells and SW480, the control group used the same culture medium without CD133+ cells. The effect of CD133+ cells on proliferation in SW480 cell was measured by MTT assay, the migration abilities of SW480 cell were assayed in Transwell cell culture, Cell adhesion assay was carried out in a 96 microplate well precoated with fibronection.Results:CD133+ cells could significantly improve the growth ability of SW480 cell, not only the ability of proliferation, but also the morphology. The morphology of the cells was remarkably changed. Irregular nucleus, double nucleus and polymorphic nucleus appeared in the treatment group, and the cells were shaped as polygon-like and leptosomatic. In the cell adhesion assay, A 490 of the treatment group was 0.11?0.01, A 490 of the control group was 0.05?0.01(P﹤0.05).Conclusions:Our results indicate that the CD133+ cell is effective in increasing tumor cell proliferation and invasion. Hematopoietic stem cell may play an important role in the invasion and metastasis of colorectal neoplasm.
