    XIE Wei-min;WU Yi-lin
    2016, 43 (2):  125-127. 
    Abstract ( 1260 )   PDF (496KB) ( 5838 )  
    Laminin 332 is a major component of the basement membrane in epithelial tissues and plays roles in the adhesion, migration and differentiation of epithelial cells. Laminin 332 consists of three different gene products, α3, β3 and γ2 chains, resulting in a heterotrimeric glycoprotein. Laminin 332 is synthesized by epithelial cells as a precursor. After secretion into the extracellular matrix, the α3 and γ2 chains undergo specific proteolytic processing to produce a mature form. Under the physiological condition, the key function of laminin 332 is sustaining the stable adhesion of epithelial cells to the underlying basement membrane in epithelial tissues. Laminin 332 has been shown to be highly expressed in various types of human malignant tumors and correlate well with tumor occurrence and development. The article is intended to review the structure of laminin 332, its relationship with malignant tumors and research progresses with gynecological tumors.

    WU Jian-fa;YI Xiao-fang
    2016, 43 (2):  140-144. 
    Abstract ( 1043 )   PDF (501KB) ( 5898 )  
    Ovarian cancer has the highest motality among the female reproductive malignancies. The underling mechanism is still unknown, and the prognosis has not been improved significantly. To establish an ideal preclinical model is in favor of the study of recurrence and metastasis in ovarian cancer. Recently, the development of patient derived xenografts model gives us a new platform for preclinical study. Gradually it has been used in the study of breast cancer, lung cancer and colon cancer, where it is proved to be useful. Much less studies on the use of patient derived xenografts model in ovarian cancer has been reported and data was shown promising. Based on the existing literature retrieval, this model could better copy the biological characteristics of the primary tumor and keep the heterogeneity of primary tumor. But there were still some problems need to be solved in the application of it, such as the different tumor take rate, the limited tumor resources and the lack of effective quality control standards. Here this review aims to address the application status, existing problems and application prospects of this model.

    LI Shu-qing;CHEN Ya-ping
    2016, 43 (2):  145-150. 
    Abstract ( 1264 )   PDF (577KB) ( 5847 )  
    Ovarian cancer is the most lethal in female reproductive carcinomas, seriously threatening the lives and health of female. Cytoreductive surgery and platinum-based cytotoxic chemotherapy are standard therapies for the treatment of ovarian cancer. The majority of ovarian cancer patients are diagnosed at advanced stages due to insidious onset, while advanced ovarian cancer patients tend to become refractory to current chemotherapeutic agents. Therefore, a critical contributor to the poor survival rate is the development of chemoresistance. There is particularly significant implication to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of chemoresistance for exploring efficient targeted therapies and developing novel therapeutic agents that can improve chemotherapy sensitivity and reverse chemoresistance. The development of chemoresistance for ovarian cancer is the results of polygenic and multifactorial interactions at different levels, the significant mechanisms involve in anti-apoptosis, pro-survival, drug efflux, detoxification, DNA repair and so on. The molecular mechanisms of ovarian cancer resistance for cisplatin and paclitaxel are uncertain, now this report aims to review the possible mechanisms.

    DENG Li-hui;FU Chun
    2016, 43 (2):  151-155. 
    Abstract ( 1274 )   PDF (587KB) ( 5857 )  
    Lymph node metastasis as the main route of metastasis of cervical cancer and endometrial cancer, and is an important factor affecting the prognosis of cervical cancer and endometrial cancer. The way how to detect and evaluate the lymph node status before and during the therapy has still been in the preliminary exploration. Current methods of detecting lymph node status are ultrasonography, computer tomography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography/computer tomography (PET-CT) and localization by sentinel lymph node biopsy etc. Different methods create images in different ways and have different sensitivity, specificity and accuracy. With the development of radiological technology and the imaging agents, the detection levels of lymph node status have been developed from simple morphology to function. Color Doppler ultrasonography, diffusion-weighted imaging, PET-CT. etc are more sensitive and specific when compared with traditional methods. Among them, PET-CT and functional MRI imaging have advantages in the detection of sensitivity, specificity and accuracy. Imaging agents are subdivided into three kinds of agents detecting tumor cell metabolism, vessel and lymphatic drainage through development.

    Potential Role of HMGB1 in Angiogenesis of Endometriosis
    WU Jin-jie;LIANG Yan-chun;YAO Shu-zhong
    2016, 43 (2):  194-198. 
    Abstract ( 1135 )   PDF (771KB) ( 5791 )  
    Angiogenesis is one of the important pathogenesis of endometriosis. Abnormal neovascularization in endometriosis promotes the proliferation, infiltration and migration of ectopic endometrial cells. High mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1), as an important pro-inflammatory factor, is recently proved to contribute to angiogenesis in different tumors. HMGB1 can promote neoangiogenesis by acting directly on endothelial cells or indirect effects on endothelial cells by vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which is synthesized and secreted by NF-κB-activating macrophages. In addition, HMGB1 also promotes proliferation and migration of endothelial cells by up-regulating the expression of fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and enhancing the activity as well as the affinity of integrins, promotes the secretion of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and then recruits pericytes and smooth muscle cells, activating the formation of vascular tubular structure. Activates the secretion of TGF-β from endothelial cells, finally promoting the maturation of vascular network. Here we review the potential mechanism of HMGB1 underlying the influence of pro-angiogenesis in endometriosis in detail, thus providing a new therapeutic target for endometriosis.

    Impact of Maternal Exposure to Fine Particulate Matter on Pregnancy Outcomes
    LI Qiu-ping;SHAO Yong
    2016, 43 (2):  217-220. 
    Abstract ( 1123 )   PDF (792KB) ( 5791 )  
    Recently, it has been showed in clinical, epidemiological and animal studies that maternal exposure to air fine particulate matter during pregnancy can resulted in stillbirth, abortion, fetal growth restriction, low birth weight, preterm birth and other adverse pregnancy outcomes, while the potential mechanisms is uncertain. As studies have proved, PM2.5 may cause DNA injury that leads to stillbirth, abortion and congenital abnormalities, it can also change the function of placenta to restrict fetal growth. Besides, PM2.5 exposure during pregnancy can also induce changes in the construction of placenta that may be a key point to preterm premature rupture of membrane and preterm birth. This review will provide a summary of the adverse pregnancy outcomes of PM2.5 exposure on the developing fetus.

    The Association of PM2.5 with Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes
    WU Si-yu;HOU Hai-yan;CHEN Juan;CHEN Ya-qiong;JIANG Jing
    2016, 43 (2):  221-225. 
    Abstract ( 1226 )   PDF (840KB) ( 5792 )  
    Through the review of nearly 40 domestic and foreign literature, the formation, components and toxicity of PM2.5 and its association with adverse birth outcomes (ABOs) including low birth weight (LBW), preterm birth (PTB), stillbirth, gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and pre-eclampsia are investigated. PM2.5 mainly consists of element carbon, organic carbon, inorganic matter and heavy metals. Coal burning and traffic are the main sources of urban PM2.5. Heavy metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons were the main toxic components of PM2.5, which could exert adverse effect on pregnancy outcome through direct placental permeation, affecting maternal endocrine and immune system, inducing oxidative stress or changing genetic materials. At last, there is still mystery about the association of PM2.5 and GDM and pre-eclampsia. Nevertheless, PM2.5 is convincingly thought to be a risk factor of LBW, PTB and stillbirth.

    Long-term Consequences of Intrauterine Nutrition for Fetal Vascular Health
    WANG Yan -ping;CHEN Xu
    2016, 43 (2):  226-229. 
    Abstract ( 1022 )   PDF (824KB) ( 5807 )  
    There are many instances in life when the environment plays a critical role in the health outcomes of an individual, especially those experienced in fetal and neonatal life. The most detrimental environmental problems encountered during this critical growth period are changes in nutrition to the growing fetus and newborn. Disturbances in the supply of nutrients and oxygen to the fetus can not only lead to adverse fetal growth patterns, but also be associated with the development of features of metabolic syndrome in adult life. Energy and/or protein restriction is the most critical determinant for fetal programming. There is a growing body of evidence that improper intrauterine nutrition may negatively influence vascular health in later life. It concerns both undernutrition and overnutrition. Imbalanced intrauterine nutrition seems to influence vascular health in the offspring by both an increase in their cardiometabolic risk factors and direct influence on vascular structure and function. Maternal malnutrition may result in intrauterine growth retardation and, in turn, metabolic disorders such as insulin resistance, diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, can also enhanced risk of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular death in the offspring.

    Effect of Continuous Stretch on Contractile Protein Expression of Uterine Smooth Muscle under High Glucose Circumstance
    MAO Jing;HAN Zhi-min;ZHOU Mu-lan;DONG Ling-ling
    2016, 43 (2):  230-233. 
    Abstract ( 1198 )   PDF (840KB) ( 5812 )  
    Objective:To analyze the effect of continuous stretch on oxytocin receptors and prostaglandin receptors expression of uterine smooth muscle cells under high glucose circumstance. Methods:Rat uterine smooth muscle cells were separated and cultured under high glucose circumstance for different durations, then we detected oxytocin receptors and prostaglandin receptors expression changes of smooth muscle cells. Continuous stretch was forced on cells under high glucose circumstance to determine synergistic effect of stretch and high glucose. At the same time, as a control team, advanced glycation end products (AGEs) inhibitor (sRAGE) was added to antagonize the effect of high glucose, then evaluate the expression of oxytocin receptors and prostaglandin receptors. Results:Both high glucose circumstance and continuous stretch could lead to oxytocin receptors and prostaglandin receptors expression of rat uterine smooth muscle cells increasing. Exerting high glucose and continuous stretch simultaneously could promote oxytocin receptors and prostaglandin receptors expressions even further and synergistic effect could be detected. After adding sRAGE, oxytocin receptors and prostaglandin receptors expressions decreased to some extend, but not completely, still higher than the normal glucose teams. Conclusions:Both continuous stretch and high glucose could promote oxytocin receptors and prostaglandin receptors expressions and there exist a synergistic effect between them. AGEs was involved in this process, but this is not the only signal pathway.

    2016, 43 (2):  234-237. 
    Abstract ( 1317 )   PDF (820KB) ( 5842 )  
    Objective:To investigate the effect of compound salvia miltiorrhiza injection on early onset severe pre-eclampsia patients and their neonatals. Methods:Total 130 patients diagnosed with early onset severe pre-eclampsia between March 2013 and March 2015 in Baoji Maternal and Child Care Service Centre were randomly divided into compound salvia miltiorrhiza injection group (67 cases) and control group (63 cases). Control group patients gave spasmolysis, calm, step-down diuresis, appropriate and dexamethasone to promote fetal lung maturity, high-protein low-fat diet routine therapy, salvia miltiorrhiza group patients gave compound salvia miltiorrhiza injection on the basis of control group treatment, both groups of patients were treated with two weeks. Nitric oxide, endothelin-1(ET-1), TNF-α and IL-6 levels were detected and compared before and after treatment in two groups. And also, the blood pressure before and after the treatment, childbirth neonatal gestational age, postpartum neonatal deaths, quality of the placenta, survival neonatal weight and 1 min Apgar score were compared between two groups. Results:The indicators of the two groups of patients had no statistical differences before treatment (P>0.05). ET-1, ET-1/NO, TNF-α, IL-6 levels, systolic pressure, diastolic pressure and mean arterial pressure were reduced by two treatment methods in early onset severe pre-eclampsia patients, nitric oxide was elevated significantly (P<0.05). The degree of changes in ET-1, ET-1/NO, TNF-α, IL-6 and nitric oxide in compound salvia miltiorrhiza injection group before and after treatment were greater than control group (P<0.001). Salvia miltiorrhiza treatment group neonatal mortality is lower than the control group, to those who gave live births, childbirth neonatal gestational age was longer in the salvia miltiorrhiza group (P<0.001). Quality of the placenta, neonatal weight, quality of the placenta and 1 min Apgar score in survival subjects were improved in compound salvia miltiorrhiza injection group than control group (P<0.001). Conclusions:Compound salvia miltiorrhiza injection improved prognosis of early onset severe pre-eclampsia patients by mechanism of anti-inflammation and regulation of endothelial function.
