ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the association and mechanism between glutathione S-transferase P1(GSTP1) and radiation-induced lung injury.Methods Two effective GSTP1 siRNAs were designed and synthesized.The normal lung epithelial cell line BEAS-2B cells were transfected with GSTP1 siRNA (experimental group,siRNA-1,siRNA-2) and negative control siRNA (negative control group,NC).Western blot was performed to detect the expression levels of GSTP1 protein and EMT-related proteins.CDNB was adopted to evaluate the activity of GSTs.DCFH-DA probe was used for incubation.Flow cytometry was conducted to detect the median fluorescence intensity (MFI) and cellular apoptosis.Annexin-v/PI staining was utilized for incubation.MTT assay was performed to measure the proliferation of BEAS-2B,and the growth curve was drawn based on the results.Results After radiation,compared with the NC group,the ROS level and MFI were significantly higher in experimental group (6774.66±399.60 vs.8759.00±256.96 vs.9967.67±735.11,P＜0.05).In the experimental group,the percentage of cellular apoptosis was remarkably higher than that in the NC group (12.3± 1.16 vs.17.38± 1.65 vs.22.88± 1.20,P＜0.05).MTT assay demonstrated that the OD values in the experimental group were significantly lower than that in the NC group everyday.Further more,the level of EMT process is higher in the experimental group.Conclusions Interfering with the GSTP1 expression in lung epithelial cells can increase the intracellular ROS level,increase the percentage of cellular apoptosis,and reduce the cell proliferation rate following γ-radiation.Besides,it can also promote the epithelial mesenchymal transition in lung epithelial cells.The down-regulation of GSTP1 protein expression level probably aggravates the radiationinduced lung cell injury and promotes the epithelial mesenchymal transition.
ABSTRACT
Objective To develop the information management system in the Department of Radiotherapy,optimize the procedures of radiotherapy, realize the informatization of radiotherapy process management and improve medical efficiency. Methods Multi-digital template was adopted to integrate the information of cancer treatment. The server was equipped with multi-terminal mode to establish the information management system of radiotherapy process. The work authority was assigned according to different positions. The system was connected with radiotherapy plan system (TPS),hospital information system (HIS) and picture archiving and communication system (PACS) to realize the information collection, recording charges, information transmission and plan evaluation and audit in Department of Radiotherapy. Results The information management system optimized the radiotherapy procedures,strengthened connection among different systems, linked the information systems among different departments, standardized the radiotherapy procedures and enhanced the clinical efficiency. Conclusions The application of information management system improves the management level of radiotherapy process, establish a unified standard for cancer treatment and provide complete management plans for the radiotherapy process and quality control. It is a unique and prospective system,which is advantageous in the management of treatment process,systematization of information collection and quality control.
