Juglone inhibits epithelial-mesenchymal transition of prostate cancer cells by regulating Wnt/β-catenin/Snail signaling pathway

AIM: To investigate the mechanism of juglone on epithelial-mesenchymal transition in prostate cancer cells. METHODS: Human prostate cancer LNCaP cells were divided into control group (without juglone), 12.5 μmol/L juglone group and 25 μmol/L juglone group. LNCaP cells in the latter 2 groups were treated with juglone for 24 h. The invasion ability of the LNCaP cells was detected by Transwell assay. The protein expression of E-cadherin, vimentin, Snail and β-catenin was determined by Western blot. The LNCaP cells were treated with LiCl and juglone in combination for 24 h, and the protein expression of Snail and E-cadherin was detected by Western blot.RESULTS: The results of Trans-well invasion assay showed that the invasion ability in juglone groups was significantly decreased (P<0.01). The protein expression of E-cadherin in the LNCaP cells treated with juglone was increased, and the expression levels of vimentin and β-catenin were reduced (P<0.01). Treatment with LiCl significantly attenuated the inhibitory effect of juglone on Snail expression and subsequent down-regulation of E-cadherin expression. CONCLUSION: Juglone inhibits the epithelial-mesenchymal transition by inhibiting the Wnt/β-catenin/Snail signaling pathway in the LNCaP cells.

从北京西郊某农场选取６头健康成年黑白花乳牛,随机分成试验和对照两组。整个试验周期共８周,分为前期,中期和后期。试验结果表明,试验组乳牛血清β－胡萝卜素水平与血清ＡＫＰ活性的变化规律相一致,均于中期时最高,血清ＡＫＰ同工酶酶谱中骨带染色变宽变深;血清维生素Ａ水平呈现逐渐升高趋势;血清钙水平呈下降趋势;血清无机磷水平逐渐下降。据此可以表明,β－胡萝卜素进入机体后,其转化为维生素Ａ的效率在不同的吸收阶段     

Effect of Psammaplin A on in vitro Development of Bovine Aging Oocytes

To investigate the effect of histone deacetylation inhibitor Psammaplin A (PsA) on the development of bovine aging oocytes in vitro,oocytes were randomly divided into control group,aging group and 50 mmol/L PsA treated aging group (PsA group).Immunofluorescence staining and JC-1 were used to detect the blastocyst rate of bovine oocytes after parthenogenetic activation,the number of cells in blastocysts,apoptosis,reactive oxygen species (ROS),glutathione (GSH) and mitochondrial membrane potential intensity of embryos.The results showed that the blastocyst rate of the aging group was significantly lower than that of PsA and control groups (P<0.05).The blastocyst rate of PsA group was not significantly different from that of control group (P>0.05).The number of cells in the blastocysts of control group and PsA group were significantly higher than that of aging group (P<0.05).The number of cells in the blastocysts of PsA group was not significantly different from that of control group (P>0.05).The apoptosis rate in aging group was significantly higher than that of control and PsA groups (P<0.05),the apoptosis rate of PsA group was significantly higher than that of control group (P<0.05).The GSH level of MⅡ oocytes in aging group was significantly lower than that of control and PsA groups (P<0.05).There was no significant difference in GSH level between control and PsA groups (P>0.05).The ROS level of the embryos in aging group was significantly higher than that of control and PsA groups (P<0.05).The ROS level in PsA group was significantly higher than that of control group (P<0.05).The mitochondrial membrane potential of early embryos of aging group 4-8 cells was significantly lower than that of control and PsA groups (P<0.05).The mitochondrial membrane potential intensity of control group was significantly higher than that of PsA group (P<0.05).In summary,PsA could effectively delay the aging of bovine oocytes and improve the quality of oocytes.     

硅酸盐水泥含量对种基盘特性的影响

种基盘是一种四周有一定硬度的圆柱状空心植物育苗装置.以普通硅酸盐水泥作为基质粘结材料,设置7个浓度(0％,2％、4％、6％、8％、10％、12％,W/W),研究种基盘的抗压强度、保水特性及根系扩展特性.结果 表明:低含水率时,水泥含量越高,基盘抗压强度越高,10％和12％水泥含量显著高于对照.随着水泥含量的增加,水泥基质配方的饱和含水量呈降低的趋势,蒸发失水比呈升高的趋势.水泥含量在10％、12％时,种基盘外壁强度大,中心孔内的根系长度比例高于孔外根系的长度比例,其他处理下,孔外的根系长度比例均高于孔内;随着水泥含量的增加,种基盘中心孔内及孔外根系总长度逐渐降低,总根中不同径级的根系长占总根长的比例为细根远大于中根及粗根.综合硅酸盐水泥处理下种基盘的抗压强度、保水特性及根系扩展特性,水泥含量为2％时效果最好.     

22份百脉根种质资源表型数量性状的遗传多样性分析

本研究对22份百脉根(Lotus corniculatus)种质资源的11个表型性状指标进行多样性研究分析。结果表明：除种宽外,22份百脉根种质间的表型性状均存在显著变异,表型性状指标变异幅度为12.11%～69.48%,各表型性状之间存在显著或极显著相关性。主成分分析表明,茎长、株高、冠幅、种子周长、种子长、种子宽和种子长宽比的主成分载荷较高,是造成百脉根种质表型性状差异的主要因素。根据聚类分析将22份百脉根种质分为3个类群,其中,第Ⅰ类群种质的种子小,但植株高大,第Ⅱ类群种质的种子小且植株矮小,第Ⅲ类群种质的种子和种荚大但植株矮小。综合评价11和12号这2份种质资源整体表现优良,且归属于第Ⅲ类群,具有种荚和种子较大的特性,可作为选育种子高产品种的目标亲本利用。本研究结果可为百脉根的种质应用和品种选育提供理论参考。
