RESUMO
The integrity of lysosomes is of vital importance to survival of tumor cells. We demonstrated that LW-218, a synthetic flavonoid, induced rapid lysosomal enlargement accompanied with lysosomal membrane permeabilization in hematological malignancy. LW-218-induced lysosomal damage and lysosome-dependent cell death were mediated by cathepsin D, as the lysosomal damage and cell apoptosis could be suppressed by depletion of cathepsin D or lysosome alkalization agents, which can alter the activity of cathepsins. Lysophagy, was initiated for cell self-rescue after LW-218 treatment and correlated with calcium release and nuclei translocation of transcription factor EB. LW-218 treatment enhanced the expression of autophagy-related genes which could be inhibited by intracellular calcium chelator. Sustained exposure to LW-218 exhausted the lysosomal capacity so as to repress the normal autophagy. LW-218-induced enlargement and damage of lysosomes were triggered by abnormal cholesterol deposition on lysosome membrane which caused by interaction between LW-218 and NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1. Moreover, LW-218 inhibited the leukemia cell growth
RESUMO
Objective@#To establish a reference measurement procedure for the determination of human serum homocysteine by isotope dilution high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (ID-LC/MS/MS), and to apply it to establish sample target values for external quality assessment (EQA) in clinical laboratories.@*Methods@#The reference method of Hcyquantification in our laboratory was establishedaccording to the method recommended by the Joint Committee for Traceability in Laboratory Medicine (JCTLM). The precision, trueness, specificity, residue and matrix effect of the method were evaluated. The reference method was applied to establish Hcy target values for samples of the second EQA in Shanghai of 2018.@*Results@#The method detects 12.5μmol/L and 37.4μmol/L samples in three batches in three days, and the CV between batches is 1.03% and 2.10%, respectively. The measured values of Standard reference material (SRM) 1955 of National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) were within the specified uncertainty range. No matrix effect and carryover were observed. The second EQA data in 2018 showed that the average value of domestic reagent group was lower than that of reference method, and that of imported reagent group was higher than that of reference method.@*Conclusion@#Thereference measurement procedure of ID-LC/MS/MS was successfully established to determine the human serum homocysteine. It is expected to play a role in tracing the quantities of Hcy in clinical laboratories.

RESUMO
Objective To investigate the stabilization of betaine on the enzyme activity of ALT in human serum at different temperatures, and to evaluate the matrix effects of human serum with betaine among different analytical systems. Methods The enzyme activity of ALT in human serums with l mol/L betaine stored at 37 ℃, 25 ℃, 4 ℃ and - 20 ℃ respectively were measured. The matrix effect experiment was carried out according to the procedures specified in Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI)document EP14-A. Four analytical systems were the candidates for evaluation, and Roche Diagnostics (Roche)-Hitachi analytical system served as the reference system. The enzyme activity of ALT of 40 patient specimens and 3-level specimens ( high, medium and low) with 1 mol/L betaine were measured using the evaluated methods and the reference method respectively. The linear regression analysis was performed to compare the mean y value of 3-level specimens with the statistically defined limits ( the two-tailed 95% prediction interval) derived from 40 patient specimen data. Results The enzyme activity of ALT could be stabilized with betaine in serum, which remained to be 99% for 48 h at 37 ℃, 98% for4 d at 25 ℃, 97%for 4 weeks at 4 ℃, and 99% for 4 months at - 20 ℃. The enzyme activity of control serum decreased to 42%, 86%, 71%, 79% respectively. The mean y values of three specimens with the betaine were within the 95% prediction interval of the estimated mean y values, which suggested no obvious matrix effects in serum. Conclusion Betaine can be used in the development of enzyme ALT calibrator as its stabilizer.
