RESUMEN
Objective@#To study the effects of hedysarum polybotys saccharides (HPS) and selenizated hedysarum polybotys saccharides (SE-HPS) on the oral squamous cancer cell line SCC25.@*Methods@#Different concentrations (0, 10, 25, 50, 100, 200, 400 μg/ml) of HPS and SE-HPS were added to SCC25 cells in the logarithmic growth stage. Cell proliferation was detected by the CCK-8 method, apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry, and apoptosis-related indexes were observed by RT-qPCR and Western blotting.@*Results @#The concentrations of HPS and SE-HPS inhibited the proliferation of SCC25 cells. The inhibitory effect of 50 μg/mL HPS and SE-HPS on the proliferation of SCC25 cells was the strongest and was time-dependent. The inhibition effect significantly increased within 48 h, and the effect was achieved after 48 h. At the plateau stage, SE-HPS inhibited the proliferation of SCC25 cells more strongly than HPS (P < 0.05). The results of flow cytometry showed that 50 μg/mL HPS and SE-HPS acted on SCC25 cells for 48 h, and the apoptotic rates were 25.8% and 30.8% respectively. Compared with the control group (0 μg/mL HPS and SE-HPS), the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). RT-qPCR and Western blotting showed that 50 μg/mL HPS and SE-HPS acted on SCC25 cells for 48 h, and the mRNA and protein expression levels of the apoptosis gene Fas/FasL were upregulated. The difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05).@*Conclusion@# Both HPS and SE-HPS can inhibit the proliferation of SCC25 oral cancer cells, but SE-HPS is superior to HPS and can induce apoptosis through the Fas/Fasl pathway.
RESUMEN
Background and purpose:Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer death in the world. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether Fas-670 G>A and Fasl-844 T>C polymorphisms were associated with the risk of lung cancer.Methods:Data from 400 lung cancer patients with speciifc histological diagnosis were collected from 2010 to 2015. Meanwhile, data from matched healthy controls with the same gender and ±5 years were also collected. The genotypes of Fas-670 G>A and Fasl-844 T>C polymorphisms were determined by TaqMan lfuorescent probe method, and the results were analyzed using SPSS 16.0 software.Results:A total number of 386 cases and 394 controls were successfully genotyped. Compared with AA genotypeofFasgene, the GA and GG genotype carriers had no signiifcantly increased risk of lung cancer.The OR values were 1.05 (95%CI: 0.77-1.44) and 0.77 (95%CI: 0.81-1.99) respectively. Compared with TT genotype ofFasl gene, the CT and CC genotype carriers had signiifcantly increased risk of lung cancer. The OR values were 1.37 (95%CI: 1.01-1.86) and 1.74 (95%CI: 1.09-2.77), respectively. Conclusion:Fasl-844 T>C polymorphism may be involved in lung cancer risk but not Fas-670 G>A polymorphism.

Methods To make the model of type 2 diabetic rats and determine the indexes of FasL gene expression and T cell apoptosis rate by RT-PCR, DNA gel electrophoresis methods. Results Compared the FasL gene expression and T cell apoptosis rate, TCM treatment group was significantly lower (P 0.05). Comparison of FasL gene express, TCM treatment group was significantly lower (P
RESUMEN
Purpose:To study the effect of FasL gene on human lung adenocarcinoma cell lines and possibility of ex- ogenous FasL gene for gene therapy of lung cancer.Methods:An adenoviral expression vector with full length cDNA of FasL gene insert was constructed(Ad-FasL) and transfected into A549 cells.The effect of exogenous FasL gene on the growth of A549 cells was examined in vitro and in vivo.Results:Expression of FasL gene in A549 cells was confirmed by FCM and RT-PCR.The in vitro growth of the Ad-FasL transfected A549 cells was significantly inhibited (inhibition rate: 84%) as compared to mock (Ad-LacZ) transfected A549 cells.Colony-forming activity in vitro of the Ad-FasL transfected A549 cells was completely inhibited.The Ad-FasL transfected cells became apoptotic which was confirmed by the appear- ance of pre-G_1 on flow cytometry (FCM).The growth of A549 xenografts in nude mice was retarded by intra-tumol injection of Ad-FasL.Conclusions:FasL gene participates in the induction of cell apoptosis.Its use in gene therapy of cancer is promising.
RESUMEN
To explore the role of apoptosis, apoptosis regulating genes in the pathogenesis and development of smoke inhalation injury. With smoke inhalation injury rat model, the changes int the expression of Bcl 2, Bax, Fas, FasL genes mRNA and protein contents and their relationship with apoptosis of lung tissue cells at different time points after the injury were observed with TUNEL, immunohistochemistry and RT PCR techniques. The results showed that: ①apoptosis indet of lung colls after smoke inhalation injury increased, ②expressions of Bcl 2, Bax, Fas, FasL genes were obviously up regulated in injury group, peaking at the 12th hour, whereas the peak of protein expression was at the 24th hour. Furthermore, a significant correlation was found between the expression of Fas, Fasl, Bax gene and apoptosis indices in lung cells. The results suggested that apoptosis participated in the early pathological process of smoke inhalation injury, and apoptosis regulating genes foot part in the regulation of apoptosis in smoke inhalation injury.
