ABSTRACT
Objective:To detect the expression levels of neuropilin1 (NRP1)mRNA and miR-9 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)tissue samples, and to explore the correlations between the expressions of NRP1 mRNA, miR-9 and the clinicopathological characteristics of the patients with NSCLC.Methods:Informed consent was obtained from each patient before surgery.The tissue samples including 45 NSCLC tissue ,45 adjacent carcinoma tissue and 45 normal lung tissue were collected from China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University from 2010 to 2011.qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression levels of NRP1 mRNA and miR-9 in three kinds of lung tissue, and the correlation between the expressions of NRP1 mRNA, miR-9 and clinicopathological characteristics of the patients with NSCLC was analyzed.Results:Compared with normal tissue,the expression level of NRP1 mRNA in adjacent carcinoma tissue had no change (P>0.05),but the expression level of NRP1 mRNA in non-small cell lung cancer tissue was significantly decreased (P0.05),but the expression level of miR-9 in non-small cell lung cancer tissue was significantly increased (P 0.05),but was correlated to the sex (P<0.05). Conclusion:The expression level of miR-9 is up-regulated and the expression level of NRP1 mRNA is down-regulated significantly in non-small cell lung cancer tissue. The detection of the expression level of NRP1 mRNA contributes to j udge the histological subtype and lymph node metastasis of NSCLC.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To discuss the influence of the fine care for newborn with severe pneumonia (SPIN) combining with respiratory failure (RF). Methods: 60 cases of SPIN with RF were selected and divided into the observation group and the control group. 28 cases of SPIN with RF in the observation group were received fine care observation group after treatment, in which 16 cases were male children and 12 cases were female children. The ages of these children were from 10d to 28d day, and their average age was 18.26 + 4.16 d. The weight was from 2.4kg to 4.4 kg, and their average weight was 3.11 + / - 0.44 kg. 32 cases of SPIN with RF in the control group were received routine nursing, in which 14 cases were male children and 18 cases were female children. The ages of these children were from 10d to 28d and their age was (10 ~ 28) d. Their average age was (18.33 + 4.07) d. The weight was from 2.4kg to 4.4 kg, and their average weight was 3.08 + / - 0.46 kg. Then we analyzed espectively respectively on two groups of children with pH, arterial blood gas analysis index of oxygen partial pressure (PaO2), arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), respiratory rate (RR) and heart rate (HR) level and the total time of mechanical ventilation, the incidence of adverse circumstance and nursing satisfaction. Results: The observation group with pH, PaO2, PaCO2, RR and level of HR after fine care is superior to the control group, and the differences were statistically significant difference (t= 4.36, 3.83, 2.23, 12.11, 5.45; P <0.05). The total time of mechanical ventilation in the observation group was significantly lower than the control group, and the difference was statistically significant difference (t=7.63, P<0.05). The reintubation rate of the observation group was obviously lower than the control group and the difference was statistically significant (x2=3.83, P<0.05). Family satisfaction of nursing in the observation group was obviously higher than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (x2=18.49, P<0.05). Conclusion: Fine care can effectively improve the SPIN with RF with blood gas analysis index, shorten the time of mechanical ventilation therapy, alleviate the pain and reduce reintubation rate. It has higher clinical value.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the effect of high and low dose radiation on the expressions of Th1,Th2 and Th3 /Tr1 related-genes in mice thymocytes and investigate the possible underlying molecular mechanism.Methods ICR mice were randomly divided into low-dose group (0.075 Gy),high-dose group (2.0 Gy) and sham-control group.The mouse thymus tissue was extracted at 16 hours after irradiation and the expressions of Th1-Th2-Th3 related genes were measured by PCR array.Results Eight genes were up-regulated and five genes were down-regulated after low dose radiation (0.075 Gy);while 54 genes were up-regulated and three genes were down-regulated after high dose (2.0 Gy) radiation.These genes included Th1 cell related genes,Th2 cell related genes,Th3/Tr1 cell related genes,Th1/Th2 immune response genes and transcription factor related genes.Low dose radiation induced up-regulation of Stat4 and Socs1 of genes related to the Th1 cells,and it induced down-regulation of IL-4ra,Cebpb,Gata3 and Tgfb3 associated with Th2 and Th3 cells,which lead to Sftpd genes up-regulation of Th1 immune response eventually.The high dose radiation up-regulated all of Th1,Th2 and Th3/Tr related genes and also enhanced the expressions of Cd86,IL-18,IL-10 and Irf4 genes related to Th2 immune response,but it did not alter the gene expression of Th1 immune response.Conclusions Low-dose radiation induces Th1-type immune response,while high doses radiation triggers Th2 type immune response.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the biocompatibility and safety of nanoscale brain-targeting-carrier micelles [poly (ethylene)-b-poly (lactic acid)/OX26 conjugate micells (copolymer/OX26)],and to explore its possibility as brain-targeted-drug carrier for brain glioma.Methods The C6 glioma cells were cultured in vitro and divided into experimental groups with different concentrations (10, 20, 40, 80 mg · L-1 )of nano micelle, and the medium without micelle was used as control group.The inhibitory effect of nano-micelles on the rat brain glioma C6 cells was examined by Trypan blue cell counting assay.Flow cytometry (FCM)was used to detect the changes of apoptosis and cell cycle of C6 cells,and confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM)was performed to analyze the distribution of copolymer/OX26 into C6 cells. Results The results of Trypan blue cell counting assay showed copolymer/OX26 didn’t affect the growth of C6 cells,and there were no significant differences in the number of C6 cells between control group and expreimental groups (P >0.05).The results of FCM showed that the cell cycle and and the apoptotic rates of C6 cells had no changes compared with control group (P > 0.05).The results of CLSM showed that the fluorescence intensities in experimental groups were higher than those in blank micelles group and blank control group (P < 0.05 ), and they were increased in dose- and time-dependent manner (P <0.05).Conclusion Copolymer/OX26 has no effect on the growth and apoptosis of glioma cells.By bonding OX26,copolymer/OX26 can significantly increase the intake of C6 cells on the nano micelles.
