Mechanism of RNA Binding Protein Sam68 Regulating Biological Behavior of Gastric Cancer Cells and Prognosis of Patients / 胃肠病学

Background: The dysregulation of expression of Sam68 gene can induce cell cycle progression, cell proliferation, transformation, tumorigenesis, and metastasis of multiple types of cancer cells. However, the specific role and molecular mechanism of Sam68 in gastric cancer cells are still uncertain. Aims: To investigate the correlation of expression of Sam68 with prognosis of gastric cancer patients and biological behavior of gastric cancer cells. Methods: A total of 161 gastric cancer tissue and paracancerous normal tissue specimens were collected. Western blotting and immunohistochemical staining were used to detect the expression of Sam68, and its correlations with clinicopathological features were analyzed. Gastric cancer AGS cells were transfected by siRNA Sam68. Cell proliferation was evaluated by CCK-8 assay, cell migration ability was evaluated by scratch test, and cell invasion ability was evaluated by Transwell test. Results: Expression of Sam68 was increased in gastric cancer tissue, and was correlated with depth of infiltration, TNM staging and lymph node metastasis. The high expression of Sam68 was correlated with poor prognosis of gastric cancer patients. After transfection with Sam68 siRNA, cell proliferation, cell cycle progression, migration and invasion ability were decreased. Conclusions: Sam68 may be a new factor for the growth, migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells, and has significant value in predicting the prognosis of gastric cancer patients.

A restrospective analysis of effect of labor analgesia on maternal and neonatal outcomes / 中华麻醉学杂志

Objective To evaluate the effect of labor analgesia on maternal and neonatal outcomes. Methods The medical records of mature puerperas with singleton pregnancy from October 2018 to April 2019 at the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University were retrospectively reviewed. Puerperas were divided into non-labor analgesia group ( NLA) and labor analgesia group ( LA) according to whether or not puerperas received labor analgesia. Maternal and neonatal outcomes were analyzed. Maternal outcomes in-cluded delivery mode, complications, intrapartum hemorrhage and blood loss at 24 h after birth, duration of the second stage of labor and prolongation, episiotomy and length of hospital stay after birth. Neonatal outcomes included Apgar score at 1, 5 and 10 min after birth, cases of Apgar score＜7 at 5 min after birth, and the proportion and reason of transfer to pediatrics unit. Results A total of 839 puerperas were includ-ed, with 551 cases in NLA group and 288 cases in LA group. Compared with NLA group, the second stage of labor was significantly prolonged ( P＜0. 01) , and no significant change was found in the other maternal or neonatal outcomes in LA group ( P＞0. 05) . Conclusion Labor analgesia can prolong the second stage of labor and exerts no effect on the neonatal outcomes.

Study on the Alleviation Effect and Its Mechanism of Nervonic Acid on Movement Disorder of Model Mice with Parkinson's Disease / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE:To study the alleviation effect of nervonic acid on movement disorder of model mice with Parkinson's disease(PD). METHODS:Mice were randomly divided into blank control group(normal suline),model group(normal saline), Levodopa and benserazide hydrochloride tablet group (positive control,calculated by L-dopamine 120 mg/kg),nervonic acid low-dose,medium-dose,high-dose groups(20.0,40.0,80.0 mg/kg),10 in each group. Except for blank control group,mice in other groups were inducced for PD models. After modeling,mice were intragastrically given relevant medicines,once a day,for 14 d. After the last administration,behavioral changes of mice in each group were observed. HPLC was conducted to detect dopa-mine(DA)and its metabolites dihydroxybenzoic acid(DOPAC),homovanillic acid(HVA)concentrations in the striatum of mice. RESULTS:Compared with blank control group,climbing time was extended in model group,drum time was shortened,spontane-ous movement times was decreased,and DA,DOPAC,HVA contents in the striatum were reduced (P<0.05). Compared with model group,climbing time was shortened in Levodopa and benserazide hydrochlo ride tablet group,nervonic acid dose groups, drum time was extended,and DA,DOPAC,HVA contents in the striatum were increased(P<0.05);and spontaneous movement times was increased in Levodopa and benserazide hydrochloride tablet group,and nervonic acid high-dose group(P<0.05). CON-CLUSIONS:Nervonic acid can effectively improve symptoms of movement dysfunction of model mice with PD. The mechanism may associate with increasing DA content in the striatum.

Objective To investigate the effect of insulin-like growth factor binding protein-related protein 1 ( IGFBPrP1 ) in the formation and development of hepatic fibrosis. Methods Hepatic fibrosis model of mice was made by intraperitoneal injecting with thioacetamide, then the mice were sacrificed four, five and six weeks later (10 mice were sacrificed at each time point, model groups). Mice in the control groups were treated by normal saline (6 mice were sacrificed at each time point). Collagen accumulation in liver tissues was detected by Masson stain. Distribution and dynamic expressions of IGFBPrP1, alpha-smooth muscle actin ( α-SMA ),Collagen Ⅰ , fibronectin ( FN), TGF-β1 and Smad3 in different groups were detected by immunohistochemistry.The expressions of IGFBPrP1, α-SMA and Smad3 were detected by Western blot. All data were analyzed using the analysis of variance (ANOVA), Pearson rank correlation coefficient. Results The expressions of IGFBPrP1 in the liver tissues were increased from 0.21 ±0.03 to 5.03 ±0.09, α-SMA from 0. 11 ±0.04 to 10.09 ±0. 18,Collagen Ⅰ from 0.22 ±0.01 to 11.01 ±0. 16, FN from 0.31 ±0.09 to 19.81 ±1.62, TGF-β1 from 0.49 ±0.02 to 5.97 ± 0. 19, and Smad3 from 0.22 ± 0.03 to 2.03 ± 0.07. Compared with the control groups, the expressions of IGFBPrP1, α-SMA, Collagen Ⅰ , FN, TGF-β1 and Smad3 in the model groups were significantly increased as time passed by ( F = 783. 141,998. 200,886. 715,935. 242, 931. 241,697. 118, P < 0. 05 ). During the formation of hepatic fibrosis, the expression of IGFBPrP1 was positively correlated with the expressions of α-SMA,Collagen Ⅰ , FN, TGF-β1 and Smad3 ( r = 0. 906, 0. 927, 0. 988, 0. 947, 0. 977, P < 0.05 ). The results of Western blot showed that the protein expression of IGFBPrP1 was increased from 0. 23 ± 0.01 to 0.92 ± 0.07,α-SMA from 0.36 ± 0. 02 to 1.39 ± 0.03, FN from 0.03 ± 0.00 to 0.12 ± 0.02, and Smad3 from 0.09 ± 0. 01 to 0.56 ±0.04. The protein expressions of IGFBPrP1, α-SMA, FN and Smad3 were significantly increased in the model groups when compared with the control groups (F =57. 316, 201. 214, 103. 871, 72. 966, P <0.05).During the formation of hepatic fibrosis. IGFBPrP1 was positively correlated with the expressions of α-SMA, FN and Smad3 (r = 0. 982, 0. 924, 0. 965, P < 0.05 ). Conclusions The expression of IGFBPrP1 increases as the aggravation of the fibrosis. IGFBPrP1 promotes the formation and development of hepatic fibrosis by activating hepatic stellate cells, accelerating the synthesis and secretion of Collagen Ⅰ and FN which are the principal components of extracellular matrix, and affecting the TGF-β1/Smad3 pathway.
