[Relationships between economic growth and industrial pollutant discharge of Suzhou: how about the EKC?].

Based on the study of the relationships between economic growth and industrial pollutant discharge of Suzhou City in 1991-2005, the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) of the City was estimated by several kinds of function, with the cause analyzed. The results showed that the EKC of Suzhou was not a typical one. The industrial pollution of the City increased dramatically by scale effect of economic growth and the clear environmental benefit of industrial structure adjustment was not received obviously, while generalized discharge reduction technologies showed great results. In general terms, the pollution increase was comparatively slower than the GDP growth. As a whole, the environmental policy of Suzhou was in effect. However, the relationships between economic growth and industrial pollutant discharge had not been a benign development yet. In order to achieve win-win situation of economic growth and pollution reduction, Suzhou needed to optimize its industry structure, push the energy conservation and discharge reduction policy deeply, increase environmental investment, and enforce the strictest environmental and industrial policy. In doing these, Suzhou could turn the traditional omega-shaped EKC into delta-shaped EKC.

Proliferation regulation effect of cyclin G1 antisense oligodeoxy-nucleotides with liposomal transfection on HL-60 cell / 中国实验血液学杂志

To investigate the effect of cyclin G1 antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (ASON) with liposomal transfection on mediating proliferation of HL-60 cell, the cyclin G1 ASON with liposomal transfection was used in vitro in co-culture with HL-60 cell, the protein and mRNA expression levels of cyclin G1 were measured by immunocytochemistry assay and RT-PCR. The cell apoptosis was detected by electron microscopy, in situ cell apoptosis detection kit (POD), DNA gel electrophoresis and flow cytometry (FCM). The results showed that in the cyclin G1 ASON group the protein and mRNA expression of cyclin G1 were significantly inhibited as compared with sense oligodeoxynucleotide (SON) group and blank group. When the ASON concentration increased, the proliferation ratio of HL-60 cell and CFU of HL-60 were also significantly inhibited. There was apoptosis of HL-60 cell. In conclusion, cyclin G1 ASON can specifically inhibit its protein and mRNA expression levels as well as the HL-60 cell proliferations and can accelerate the apoptosis of leukemia cells with concentration-dependent effect of ASON.

Effect of cyclin G1 antisense oligodeoxynucleotides (ASON) on the growth of HL-60 cells in nude mice / 中华血液学杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the inhibition effect of cyclin G(1) antisense oligodeoxynucleotides (ASON) on the growth of HL-60 cells in nude mice.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>(1) Nude mice were divided into control group, sense oligodeoxynucleotides (SON) group and ASON group. After (60)Co radiation, with HL-60 cells SON group and ASON group were subcutaneously innoculated; (2) The weight and volume of tumors were continually measured; (3) The morphology of tumor cells was observed by microscope; (4) The protein and mRNA expression levels of cyclin G(1) were determined by flow cytometry (FCM) and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR); (5) The cell apoptosis was detected by electron microscopy and FCM.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>(1) The inhibition rate of tumor in ASON group was 69.4%. In ASON group, the wight and volume of tumor were significantly lower than those in SON group and control group. (2) The HL-60 cells in ASON group showed morphologically smaller nuclei, less mitosis, less heteromorphosis and apoptosis.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The cyclin G(1) ASON can inhibit the growth of HL-60 cells in nude mice and induce apoptosis.</p>

Effect of liposomal transfection of cyclin A antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (ASON) on HL-60 cell proliferation and apoptosis / 中华血液学杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the effect of liposomal transfection of cyclin A antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (ASON) on HL-60 cell proliferation and apoptosis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>By liposomal transfection, cyclin A ASON was co-cultured with HL-60 cells, the cell growth curve was determined by MTT assay and cell apoptosis electron-microscopy in situ cell apoptosis detection kit (POD), the protein and mRNA of cyclin A and bcl-2 were measured by FACS and RT-PCR, the role of cyclin A ASON in the development of leukemia was tested by the tumor formation in nude mice.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>(1) In the cyclin A ASON liposomal transfection group (group A), the proliferation of HL-60 cell was significantly inhibited as compared to those in cyclin A ASON group (group B) (68.9% vs 24.8%) (P < 0.01). (2) The expressions of cyclin A and bcl-2 of group A were significantly lower than those in the control group (1.1% vs 38.8%, P < 0.01; 21.9% vs 65.0%, P < 0.01, respectively), and the DNA ladder and apoptosis body was displayed. (3) In group A, the rate of tumor formation in nude mice was lower, the time for tumor formation was longer and the volume of tumor was smaller than those in control group.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Liposomal transfection of cyclin A ASON can inhibit in vitro proliferation of leukemia cells and induce in vivo apoptosis of the tumor cell, which might provide a new target for gene therapy.</p>
