吉西他滨类似物的设计、合成及体外抗肿瘤活性

吉西他滨是临床一线治疗恶性肿瘤的药物,但其4-位氨基(N4)易与脱氧胞苷脱氨酶(CDA)作用而失活,导致代谢稳定性差,严重影响了临床治疗效果。以吉西他滨为起始原料,经3步反应合成了N4保护的脂溶性吉西他滨衍生物(3a和3b),其结构经1H NMR,13C NMR和HR-MS(ESI)表征。体外活性测试结果显示:化合物3a对多种肿瘤细胞的抗增殖作用均强于临床药物吉西他滨(P<0.05)。酶稳定性实验结果表明:3a几乎不受CDA影响,代谢稳定性显著高于原药吉西他滨。     

基于拟靶向液相色谱-质谱联用的胃癌患者血清代谢组分析

胃癌是一种高发的恶性肿瘤,是癌症相关死亡的第二大病因。早期筛查是提高患者生存率的有效手段,但目前临床上尚缺乏实现胃癌无创筛检的可靠标志物。本研究采用了基于液相色谱-质谱联用的拟靶向代谢组学方法分析了20例胃癌患者及40例正常人血清代谢组,以期发现新的潜在代谢标志物。代谢组数据的主成分分析和偏最小二乘法数据分析结果显示,胃癌患者与健康人群的血清代谢组存在明显的差异,结合非参数检验进一步筛选并定性出57个差异代谢物。其中二氢胆固醇经验证组样本验证,具有成为胃癌代谢标志物的潜力。本研究在发现胃癌的潜在代谢标志物的同时,也为胃癌患者代谢分型提供了重要的科学依据。     

DNA microarray: a high throughput approach for methylation detection

We described a DNA microarray-based method combined with bisulphite treatment of DNA and regular PCR to examine hyper-methylation in promoter 1A of APC gene. A set of oligonucleotide probes were designed and immobilized on the aldehyde-coated glass slides for detecting the methylation pattern of 15 selected CpG sites in the region. The methylation status of 30 colorectal tumor samples have been examined by both of methylation-specific PCR (MS-PCR) and the present microarray method. The methylation pattern of the 15 CpG sites for the samples have been obtained with the microarray. A total of 19 samples out of 30 were methylated by microarray, in which five samples cannot be detected by MS-PCR due to the methylated CpG patterns not accordant to the MS-PCR primers. The detecting ratio for methylation of APC gene of colorectal tumor samples increased from 46.7% with MS-PCR to 63.3% with the microarray, which successfully demonstrated that DNA microarray-based method not only can obtained the methylation patterns for the related genes, but also decrease the false-negative results of methylation status by the conventional MS-PCR for the investigated genes.     

Recent Advances in the Antiproliferative and Proapoptotic Activity of Various Plant Extracts and Constituents against Murine Malignant Melanoma

Although conventional medicine, chemical drug synthesis and pharmaceutical research are advancing at a rapid pace, nature remains a major supplier of biological molecules. Natural bioactive compounds are studied closely especially as an alternative to the limitations of conventional therapy in many diseases, melanoma being one of them. Malignant melanoma is a highly aggressive type of cancer, and the current methods of treatment used are cryotherapy, external surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy, biological therapy, and targeted drug therapy. Unfortunately, these treatment methods are often inefficient, extremely expensive and cause many side effects, which is why focusing on melanoma chemoprevention and adjuvant therapy with natural herbal phytoconstituents is an emerging strategy to prevent, cure or treat melanoma. This review aims to examine the latest discoveries in terms of potential natural bioactive compounds that possess important activity against the development and spread of murine melanoma cancer. In particular, the use of different phytochemicals such as phenolic acids, flavonoids, anthocyanins, terpenoids, essential oils and carotenoids in vitro and in vivo models will be discussed. These data are helpful in guiding researchers in the direction of studying phytonutrients with important effects in the prevention and treatment of melanoma.     

兔VX2移植肝癌及隔离灌注模型建立方法探究

应用开腹瘤块包埋法建立了兔移植肝癌模型,探讨了改良动脉插管技术及提高隔离灌注模型建立的成功率.采用的方法是将实验兔建立移植肝癌模型10d后,按动脉插管方法随机分为3组：A组为直视下儿科静脉留置针插管;B组为显微镜下儿科静脉留置针插管;C组为直视下硬膜外麻醉导管插管.建模成功后经肝动脉灌注奥沙利铂,隔离灌注模型建立前测量肿瘤生长大小,常规病理观察肿瘤,比较插管成功率.研究结果表明：肿瘤生长良好,应用儿科静脉留置针插管成功率明显高于硬膜外麻醉导管,显微镜下插管较直视下无统计学意义,奥沙利铂浓度外周静脉显著低于流出道.由此认为采用儿科静脉留置针插管操作简单,成功率高,建立隔离灌注模型外周血药物泄漏少,阻断较完全,是一种实用的隔离灌注建立方法.
