Effect of colchicine on LPS induced endothelial mesenchymal transformation and its mechanism / 中国药理学通报

Aim To investigate the effect of colchicine on lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced endothelial to mesenchymal transition (EndMT) in human umbilical vein vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs) and its related mechanisms. Methods The EndMT model was established by treating HUVECs with LPS. Cell proliferation rate was detected by CCK-8 assay, cytotoxicity was detected by LDH assay, and the optimal drug concentration was screened. The cells were divided into the normal control group, the normal control + colchicine (10 nmol • L) group, the LPS (10 mg • L) model group, and the LPS + colchicine (10 nmol • L) group. The morphologic changes of the cells were observed under an inverted microscope, the cell migration ability was detected by Transwell assay, and the ability of tube formation was analyzed by tube formation assay. The expression of endothelial markers (CD31/ VE-cadherin) and mesenchymal cell markers (a-SMA/FSP-1) were detected by Western blot. NF-KB inhibitor was used to detect the changes in related signaling pathways. Results CCK-8 and LDH experiments showed that 10 nmol • L colchicine was the optimal concentration. LPS could induce morphological changes in HUVECs, and colchicine could reverse morphological changes in HUVECs to a certain extent. Transwell experiment showed that the migration ability of HUVECs in the LPS treatment group was significantly enhanced (P < 0. 05), and colchicine could significantly reverse this phenomenon (P < 0. 05) . Tube formation experiment showed that LPS decreased the endothelial tube formation ability of HUVECs (P < 0. 05), while colchicine treatment markedly improved LPS-induced tube formation defects (P < 0. 05) . Western blot assay showed that after colchicine co-cultured with LPS, the expression levels of CD31 and VE-cadherin significantly increased compared with the model group (P < 0. 05), while the expression levels of a-SMA and FSP-1 significantly decreased compared with the model group (P < 0. 05) . During the induction of EndMT by LPS, colchicine could inhibit the activation of the NF-KB/Snail signaling pathway. Conclusions Colchicine can effectively inhibit EndMT induced by LPS, and the mechanism may be related to the regulation of the NF-KB/Snail signaling pathway.

Casticin Attenuates Stemness in Cervical Cancer Stem-Like Cells by Regulating Activity and Expression of DNMT1 / 中国结合医学杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To explore whether casticin (CAS) suppresses stemness in cancer stem-like cells (CSLCs) obtained from human cervical cancer (CCSLCs) and the underlying mechanism.@*METHODS@#Spheres from HeLa and CaSki cells were used as CCSLCs. DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) activity and mRNA levels, self-renewal capability (Nanog and Sox2), and cancer stem cell markers (CD133 and CD44), were detected by a colorimetric DNMT activity/inhibition assay kit, quantitative real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, sphere and colony formation assays, and immunoblot, respectively. Knockdown and overexpression of DNMT1 by transfection with shRNA and cDNA, respectively, were performed to explore the mechanism for action of CAS (0, 10, 30, and 100 nmol/L).@*RESULTS@#DNMT1 activity was increased in CCSLCs compared with HeLa and CaSki cells (P<0.05). In addition, HeLa-derived CCSLCs transfected with DNMT1 shRNA showed reduced sphere and colony formation abilities, and lower CD133, CD44, Nanog and Sox2 protein expressions (P<0.05). Conversely, overexpression of DNMT1 in HeLa cells exhibited the oppositive effects. Furthermore, CAS significantly reduced DNMT1 activity and transcription levels as well as stemness in HeLa-derived CCSLCs (P<0.05). Interestingly, DNMT1 knockdown enhanced the inhibitory effect of CAS on stemness. As expected, DNMT1 overexpression reversed the inhibitory effect of CAS on stemness in HeLa cells.@*CONCLUSION@#CAS effectively inhibits stemness in CCSLCs through suppression of DNMT1 activation, suggesting that CAS acts as a promising preventive and therapeutic candidate in cervical cancer.

Pathological characteristics and clinical prognosis of nodular sclerosis grade 2 of classic Hodgkin's lymphoma / 中华肿瘤杂志

Objective: To investigate the pathological characteristics and clinical prognosis of nodular sclerosis grade 2 of classic Hodgkin's lymphoma (cHL-NS2) in our cancer center. Methods: A retrospective collection of 23 cases of cHL-NS2 admitted in Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College from July 2008 to April 2019 was performed. Fifty-five cases of nodular sclerosis grade 1 of classical Hodgkin's lymphoma (cHL-NS1) during the same period were selected as control group. Survival curves were plotted using the Kaplan-Meier method, and Cox regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors for survival. Results: The median age of 23 cases of cHL-NS2 was 30 years old. Five cases had extra nodal invasion, and 19 cases were Ⅰ-Ⅱ stage based on Ann Arbor system. The pathological morphology of cHL-NS2 showed that the lymph node structure was completely destroyed and was divided into nodules by thick collagen. The tumor cells in the nodules were abundant and proliferated in sheets. The boundaries between the tumor cells were not clear. The incidence of tumor necrosis in cHL-NS2 was 43.5% (10/23), which was significantly higher than 18.2% (10/55) in cHL-NS1 (P=0.040). The 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate of patients in the cHL-NS2 group was 58.1%, which was significantly lower than 89.7% in the cHL-NS1 group (P=0.002). In all of 78 cases, the 3-year PFS rate of patients who did not obtain complete response (CR) was 67.1%, which was significantly lower than 92.2% in patients who achieved CR (P=0.030). Multivariate Cox regression analysis demonstrated that both cHL-NS2 and failure to obtain CR by first-line treatment were independent indicators for short PFS time (P<0.05). Conclusions: In cHL-NS2, the morphology of tumor cells are diverse, and tumor necrosis can be easily found. Under the current first-line treatments of doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD) or bleomycin, etoposide, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, procarbazine, and prednisone (BEACOPP), cHL-NS2 is an independent indicator for worse PFS.

Objective To explore the application value of treatment-related markers PD-L1, PD-L2, CD30, CD23, BCL-2, BCL-6, MUM1 and GATA3 in the diagnosis and prognostic evaluation of primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma(PMBL). Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 34 patients diagnosed with PMBL, and 31 patients with DLBCL-NOS which was not primary in the mediastinum were taken as control group. The expressions of 8 proteins were detected by IHC staining. Results The median percentages of tumor cells with PD-L1, PD-L2 and CD30 expression in PMBL group were 70% (30%, 90%), 25% (0, 70%) and 17.5% (0, 60%) respectively, which were significantly higher than those in the DLBCL-NOS group (P < 0.05). The positive rates of CD30 and CD23 in PMBL group were 61.76% (21/34) and 76.47% (26/34) respectively, significantly different with those in the DLBCL-NOS group (P=0.000). The survival curve of PMBL patients with CD30 or BCL-6 expression showed a trend of poor prognosis, despite the P value was > 0.05. Conclusion The high expression levels of PD-L1, PD-L2 and CD30 in PMBL are helpful to accurately identify more patients who may respond to immune or targeted therapy. Immunohistochemical staining of PD-L1, PD-L2, CD30 and CD23 is helpful for the differential diagnosis of PMBL and DLBCL-NOS. As candidate prognostic indicators of PMBL, CD30 and BCL-6 should be further studied in a larger number of samples.

Objective@#To explore the difference in ultrasonic monitoring in carotid blood flow, resuscitation effects and prognosis between interposed abdominal pulling-pressing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (IAPP-CPR) and standard cardiopulmonary resuscitation (STD-CPR).@*Methods@#Seventy-five cardiac arrest (CA) patients admitted to emergency department of Shijingshan Teaching Hospital of Capital Medical University from June 2015 to December 2017 were enrolled. The patients were divided into STD-CPR group and IAPP-CPR group according to the treatment orders of them and the desire of relatives. All patients were given persistent external compression, airway open, tube intubation, and mechanical ventilation, vasoactive drugs application, defibrillation if required. STD-CPR group was operated according to the 2015 American Heart Association (AHA) CPR guidelines. On the basis of the standard CPR, IAPP-CPR group was recovered using abdominal lifting and compressing CPR instrument to press down to lift the upper abdomen continuously, when the chest compressing relaxed (frequency 100 times/min, down and lift time ratio 1:1, compressing strength 50 kg, lifting strength 30 kg). The patients' gender, age and CA etiology were recorded in the two groups. The vital signs and blood flow of carotid artery were monitored with ultrasonic Doppler during the CPR. The return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) rate and 48-hour survival rate were observed in patients. The influence factors of ROSC were screened by Logistic regression analysis.@*Results@#The data of 75 patients with CA were enrolled finally, with STD-CPR group of 38 patients and IAPP-CPR group of 37 patients. There were no significant differences in patients' gender, age or CA etiology between the two groups. Comparing with STD-CPR group, the peak blood flow velocity of carotid artery in IAPP-CPR group was speeded up significantly (cm/s: 107.16±13.75 vs. 78.99±14.77, P < 0.01), the overall blood flow volume of carotid artery was increased significantly (mL/min: 989.06±115.88 vs. 751.62±118.92, P < 0.01), but there was no significant difference in inner diameter of carotid artery between the two groups (mm: 4.55±0.25 vs. 4.61±0.21, P > 0.05) . During the CPR, the mean arterial pressure (MAP) and the transcutaneous oxygen saturation (SpO2) in IAPP-CPR group were significantly higher than those of STD-CPR group, but no significant difference was found in heart rate between the two groups. Four patients in STD-CPR group got ROSC, and 3 survived over 48 hours (1 myocardial infarction patient died of ventricular fibrillation) while 6 patients in IAPP-CPR group got ROSC and survived over 48 hours. There was no significant difference in ROSC rate or 48-hour survival rate between the two groups, but data of IAPP-CPR group was slightly higher than that of STD-CPR group [ROSC rate: 16.22% (6/37) vs. 10.53% (4/38), 48-hour survival rate: 16.22% (6/37) vs. 7.89% (3/38), both P > 0.05]. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the higher the MAP during CPR, the greater the possibility of ROSC was [odds ratio (OR) = 1.361, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 1.182-1.669, P = 0.030].@*Conclusions@#IAPP-CPR was superior to traditional STD-CPR in improving arterial blood flow and resuscitation effect, but no superiority was found in ROSC rate and survival rate, which may be relate to the small number of patients that included in this study. More clinic trials are needed.

On the basis of the standard CPR, IAPP-CPR group was recovered using abdominal lifting and compressing CPR instrument to press down to lift the upper abdomen continuously, when the chest compressing relaxed (frequency 100 times/min, down and lift time ratio 1:1, compressing strength 50 kg, lifting strength 30 kg). The patients' gender, age and CA etiology were recorded in the two groups. The vital signs and blood flow of carotid artery were monitored with ultrasonic Doppler during the CPR. The return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) rate and 48-hour survival rate were observed in patients. The influence factors of ROSC were screened by Logistic regression analysis.@*RESULTS@#The data of 75 patients with CA were enrolled finally, with STD-CPR group of 38 patients and IAPP-CPR group of 37 patients. There were no significant differences in patients' gender, age or CA etiology between the two groups. Comparing with STD-CPR group, the peak blood flow velocity of carotid artery in IAPP-CPR group was speeded up significantly (cm/s: 107.16±13.75 vs. 78.99±14.77, P < 0.01), the overall blood flow volume of carotid artery was increased significantly (mL/min: 989.06±115.88 vs. 751.62±118.92, P < 0.01), but there was no significant difference in inner diameter of carotid artery between the two groups (mm: 4.55±0.25 vs. 4.61±0.21, P > 0.05). During the CPR, the mean arterial pressure (MAP) and the transcutaneous oxygen saturation (SpO2) in IAPP-CPR group were significantly higher than those of STD-CPR group, but no significant difference was found in heart rate between the two groups. Four patients in STD-CPR group got ROSC, and 3 survived over 48 hours (1 myocardial infarction patient died of ventricular fibrillation) while 6 patients in IAPP-CPR group got ROSC and survived over 48 hours. There was no significant difference in ROSC rate or 48-hour survival rate between the two groups, but data of IAPP-CPR group was slightly higher than that of STD-CPR group [ROSC rate: 16.22% (6/37) vs. 10.53% (4/38), 48-hour survival rate: 16.22% (6/37) vs. 7.89% (3/38), both P > 0.05]. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the higher the MAP during CPR, the greater the possibility of ROSC was [odds ratio (OR) = 1.361, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 1.182-1.669, P = 0.030].@*CONCLUSIONS@#IAPP-CPR was superior to traditional STD-CPR in improving arterial blood flow and resuscitation effect, but no superiority was found in ROSC rate and survival rate, which may be relate to the small number of patients that included in this study. More clinic trials are needed.

LC-MS/MS application in pain management / 中华检验医学杂志

Pain management is the monitoring of chronic pain patients under long-term treatment with controlled analgesic drugs via random or regular lab tests. Plenty of clinical data showed that pain management could not only improve the patient′s compliance to prescribed drugs and result in better outcome,but also greatly reduce the possibility of controlled analgesic drugs into the underground market illegally. Drugs that are usually internationally recommended in pain management include opiates, opioids, sedative drugs, stimulant, hallucinogens etc. Considering drug metabolism rates difference among individuals and ease of sampling,random urine is usually the first choice of specimen for drug testing in pain management. In terms of methodology,LC-MS/MS has become a"gold standard"approach due to its high sensitivity,high specificity and wide usability.

Study on micromegakaryocytes of patients with myelodysplastic syndrome by flow cytometry / 重庆医学

Objective To setup a measurement of human bone marrow micromegakaryocyte which based on CD41a and PI double‐labeled flow cytometric analysis ,and study the significance in the diagnosis of MDS .Methods In 42 cases of MDS patients , their bone marrow megakaryocytes were obtained by Percoll density gradient separation medium .The megakaryocyte glycoproteinⅡb/Ⅲa(CD41a)were marked with fluorescein isothiocyanate through its corresponding monoclonal antibody ,and their DNA were marked with PI .Then the megakaryocyte ploidy was analyzed by flow cytometry(FCM ) .Results The method for micromegakaryo‐cyte identification and analysis was established .In 42 patients with MDS ,the detection rate of micromegakaryocyte was 90 .5 per‐cent by FCM analysis ,but only 54 .8 percent by Wright‐Giemsa staining test and 64 .3 percent by immunohistochemistry ,the differ‐ence among them was statistically significant(χ2 = 13 .640 ,P= 0 .001) .The 42 patients with MDS were divided into two groups (low‐risk group and high‐risk group) .The detection rates of micromegakaryocyte were 81 .8 percent in low‐risk group and 100 per‐cent in high‐risk group separately by FCM analysis ,the difference was statistically significant(χ2 =4 .019 ,P=0 .045) .Conclusion The detection rate of micromegakaryocyte by FCM with CD41a and PI double marker is higher than that by cytochemical staining . The detection rate of micromegakaryocyte in the high‐risk group is higher than that of the low‐risk group ,which shows that the de‐tection of micromegakaryocyte is of great significance for MDS prognosis assessment .
