ABSTRACT

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>It has been proved that hypoxia is closely related to oncogenesis and development of tumor. The aim of this study is to observe the effect of dexamethasone on expression of hypoxia inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in lung tissues of hypoxic mice, and to investigate the relationship between hypoxia and angiogenesis and mechanism of dexamethasone.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The Kunming mice were randomly divided into control group and three experimental groups (3-day hypoxia group, 6-day hypoxia group, and hypoxia+dexamethasone group). HIF-1α and VEGF protein expression was detected in lung tissues of mice by immunohistochemistry.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Expression of HIF-1α and VEGF significantly increased in hypoxia group compared with control group (P < 0.05). Compared with hypoxia group, expression of HIF-1α and VEGF decreased dramatically in hypoxia+dexamethasone group (P < 0.05). A positive correlation was found between the expression of HIF-1α and VEGF (r=0.730, P=0.007).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Hypoxia can increase the expression of VEGF and HIF-1α in lung tissues of mice. Dexamethasone can inhibit the expression of VEGF and HIF-1α of hypoxic mice and it may have anti-angiogenetic effect.</p>

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the expression of hypoxia inducible factor-1?and VEGF in lung of mice during hypoxia and its relationship with angiogenesis.Methods The mice were divided into two group(hypoxia group and control group).The hypoxia group mice were placed in a hypoxia chamber with 10%,7%,or 5%O2 respectively for 3,6,9 days.Immuno- histochemical staining technique was used to examine HIF-1?,VEGF and MVD.The p rotein expression of HIF-1? and VEGF were observed by Western blot.Results HIF-1?proteins didn't express and VEGF proteins expressed weakly in control group mice;Compared with the controls,the expression of HIF-1?and VEGF increased dramadically.There were significant differences between the hypoxia groups and the control group;Positive relationships were found between the expression of HIF-1?,VEGF and MVD.Conclusion HIF-1?/VEGF pathway may play an important role in angiogenesis of hypoxia in the lung of mice.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the anti-tumor mechanisms of emodin on human lung adenocarcinoma cell line Anip973 (LACC).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The influence of emodin of different concentration at different time on LACC proliferation were determined and compared using MTT colorimeric assay and cell growth curve assay. And the cell apoptotic rate was determined by flow cytometry and analyzed with electronic microscope.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>In a certain range, the higher concentration and longer acting time of emodin could induce the stronger inhibitory effect on tumor cell growth and the higher apoptotic rate. The proliferation inhibitory rate reached 90% after LACC being treated with emodin 60 micromol/L for 72h.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Emodin can significantly inhibit proliferation of human LACC, showing dose-effect and time-effect relationship.</p>
