After health information push service on Internet was investigated ,suggestions were put forward for impro-ving the health information service by making use of the Wechat public platform according to the incomplete and non-professional health information service , rampant advertisements and unaccessible personal information on Internet .
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effects of mitochondrial membrane permeability transition pore (MPT)-opened agent diamide and MPT-closed agent cyclosporin A on arsenic trioxide (As(2)O(3))-induced apoptosis in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) cell line NB4.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>NB4 cells were treated with As(2)O(3) alone or in combination with diamide or cyclosporin A in different concentrations. Cell apoptosis was assessed by the morphological observation, Annexin-V assay, distribution of cellular DNA contents and genomic DNA electrophoresis. The mitochondrial transmembrane potentials (DeltaPsim) were detected by flow cytometry according to the intensity of rhodamine 123 uptake in cells.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Both diamide and cyclosporin A significantly enhanced As(2)O(3)-induced apoptosis in NB4 cells. The DeltaPsim collapse induced by As(2)O(3) was also enforced by combined treatment with diamide or cyclospo-rin A. 1 micromol/L As(2)O(3) alone treatment for 72 hours led to DeltaPsim disruption in 27.9% of cells, while combined treatment of As(2)O(3) and diamide or cyclosporin A increased DeltaPsim disruption cells to 59.7% and 42.2%, respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>As(2)O(3)-induced DeltaPsim disruption possibly involves with thiol oxidation or crosslink of important components especially ANT-related molecules.</p>
