目的观察疏肝健脾颗粒剂(Shugan Jianpi Granule,SGJP)治疗乳腺癌癌因性疲乏(breast cancer related fatigue,BCRF)的临床疗效。方法采用单臂临床试验方法,纳入40例BCRF肝郁脾虚证患者,服用SGJP 8周,观察治疗前及治疗后4、8、12周Piper疲乏自评量表(PFS)、体能状况(ECOG)评分、中医证候量表、综合性医院焦虑抑郁量表(HAD)评分、匹茨堡睡眠质量指数量表(PSQI)评分及血尿便常规、生化等安全性指标。结果38例患者完成全部随访,2例发生脱落。PFS、中医证候量表、HAD焦虑量表评分均在试验第4、8、12周显著下降,ECOG评分、HAD抑郁量表均在试验第8、12周显著下降,PSQI评分在治疗第12周显著下降,差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。在整个随访过程中,所有患者在治疗后未出现明显血常规、尿便常规及生化指标异常。结论SGJP可以减轻乳腺癌患者的疲乏,增强体力,改善焦虑抑郁及睡眠质量,值得临床借鉴。     

鼠巨细胞病毒感染C57BL/6小鼠急性肝炎动物模型的建立与鉴定

目的：建立鼠巨细胞病毒（MCMV）感染C57BL/6小鼠急性肝炎模型并对其感染特点进行分析及鉴定。方法：将24 只C57BL/6小鼠随机分为阴性对照组（n =12）及病毒感染组（n =12），病毒感染组腹腔注射1.0×106 PFU（200 μL）MCMV悬液，阴性对照组注射等体积小鼠胚胎成纤维细胞（MEF）悬液。于感染后第3天和第7天取外周血分离血清检测谷丙转氨酶（ALT）及谷草转氨酶（AST）。同时进行肝组织病毒分离、组织病理学及MCMV IE和M55基因、细胞因子白细胞介素-6（IL-6）、白细胞介素-1β（IL-1β）、肿瘤坏死因子α（TNF-α）的检测。结果：病毒感染组肝组织匀浆病毒分离均为阳性，肝炎发生率为100%。在感染后第3天即发生肝炎病理改变，病毒感染组血清ALT及AST较阴性对照组明显升高（P ＜0.01）；病毒感染组肝脏HE染色第3天可见局灶性炎性细胞浸润及肝脏点灶状坏死，持续至第7天，Ishak评分较阴性对照组明显升高（P ＜0.01）；在感染后第3天病毒感染组肝组织内可检测到MCMV IE及M55基因，且在感染后第7天仍可测得IE基因；感染后第3天及第7天病毒感染组炎性细胞因子IL-6、TNF-α及IL-1β mRNA表达水平明显升高（P ＜0.05）。 结论：成功建立MCMV感染C57BL/6小鼠急性动物肝炎模型，其感染表现主要集中在急性感染前期。

Helicobacter pylori induces epithelial-mesenchymal transition in gastric carcinogenesis via the AKT/GSK3β signaling pathway

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a main risk factor for gastric cancer (GC). Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is involved in the development and progression of H. pylori-associated GC. However, the exact molecular mechanism of this process remains unclear. The AKT/GSK3β signaling pathway has been demonstrated to promote EMT in several types of cancer. The present study investigated whether H. pylori infection induced EMT, and promoted the development and metastasis of cancer in the normal gastric mucosa, and whether this process was dependent on AKT activation. The expression levels of the EMT-associated proteins, including E-cadherin and N-cadherin, were determined in 165 gastric mucosal samples of different disease stages by immunohistochemical analysis. The expression levels of E-cadherin, N-cadherin, AKT, phosphorylated (p-)AKT (Ser473), GSK3β and p-GSK3β (Ser9) were further determined in H. pylori-infected Mongolian gerbil gastric tissues and cells co-cultured with H. pylori by immunohistochemical analysis and western blotting. The results indicated that the expression levels of the epithelial marker E-cadherin were decreased, whereas the expression levels of the mesenchymal marker N-cadherin were increased during gastric carcinogenesis. Their expression levels were associated with H. pylori infection. Furthermore, H. pylori infection resulted in downregulation of E-cadherin expression and upregulation of N-cadherin expression in Mongolian gerbils and GES-1 cells. In addition, an investigation of the associated mechanism of action revealed that p-AKT (Ser473) and p-GSK3β (Ser9) were activated in GES-1 cells following co-culture with H. pylori. Furthermore, following pretreatment of the cells with the AKT inhibitor VIII, the expression levels of E-cadherin, N-cadherin, p-AKT and p-GSK3β did not show significant differences between GES-1 cells that were co-cultured with or without H. pylori. The levels of p-AKT and p-GSK3β were increased in H. pylori-infected Mongolian gerbils. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that H. pylori infection activated AKT and resulted in the phosphorylation and inactivation of GSK3β, which in turn promoted early stage EMT. These effects were AKT-dependent. This mechanism may serve as a prerequisite for GC development.
