Effect of autophagy in curcumin enhancing chemosensitivity of LoVo cells to irinotecan / 实用医学杂志

Objective To study the role of autophagy in the curcumin (Cur) enhancing the chemosensitivity of the colorectal cancer LoVo cells to irinotecan (CPT-11). Methods The LoVo cells were separated into 4 groups:the control group,the Cur group,the CPT-11 group and the Mix group.Western blot assay was applied to determine the expression of autophagy-related protein LC3-Ⅱ and P62. LC3-Ⅱ was detected by immunofluorescence method. Transmission electron microscopy was used to detect the autophagosome. CCK-8 assay was applied to detect the cell growth inhibitory rate of LoVo cells ,which were pre-treated with autophagy inhibitor 3-MA before 24-h treatment of Cur and/or CPT-11. Western blot assay was applied to detect the expression of LC3- Ⅱ and P62. Results The mixed treatment significantly increased the expression of LC3-Ⅱwhile decreased P62 expression,compared with the Cur and CPT-11 treatments. The autophagosomes in cells of Mix group were significantly more than those in cells of the Cur and Cpt group. Pre-treatment of 3-MA significantly reduced cell growth rate in the Cur group,the Cpt group and the Mix group. Pre-treatment of 3-MA significantly decreased the expression of LC3-Ⅱ,while increased P62 expression,compared with the Mix group. Conclution Combinations of curcumin and CPT-11 could enhance the chemosensitivity of LoVo cells to CPT-11,which might be related to the activation of autophagy.

ObjectiveThe efficacy and safety of nitrous oxide-sedated transnasal gastroscopy for high-risk patients of intravenous anesthesia were evaluated. MethodsA total of 157 patients were randomly assigned to the nitrous oxide group ( n =80) and the oxygen group ( n =77). Heart rate, blood oxygen saturation, blood pressure and electrocardiogram were monitored. Complications in both groups were recorded.Satisfaction degrees of patients and endoscopy physicians were evaluated with a questionnaire and visual analog scale (VAS) score. The questionnaire questions for physicians included the procedure evaluation ( steady, ok, unsteady). Patients' questionnaire questions included discomfort (light, moderate, severe), the patients' tolerance ( fine, moderate, weak) and the patients' willingness to undergo a second procedure. Statistical analysis was performed between the two groups. ResultsSix of the toal 157 patients were removed because of the operation failure (difficulty in access to nasal cavity in 5 patients and nose bleeding in one patient), 151 patients underwent the transnasal gastroscopy successfully and completed the questionnaires. In experimental group, there were 37 males and 41 females (mean age was 67.7 years, ranging 16-88 years, 7 patients were grade 1 of ASA, 61 were grade 2, and 11 were grade 3). In the control group, there were 36 males and 37 females (mean age was 67.9 years, ranging 17-86 years, 6 patients were grade 1 of ASA, 57 were grade 2, and 9 were grade 3). There was no differences in sex, average age and ASA grade between the two groups (P ＞ 0. 05 ). There was no difference in the mean operation time between the two groups, either (200. 1 s vs 200. 3 s) ( P ＞ 0. 05 ). There were no significant differences between the two groups in changes of blood oxygen saturation, blood pressure, electrocardiogram and complication rates ( P ＞ 0. 05 ).Both physicians' and patients' positive evaluations of the experimental group were more than that of the control (P ＜ 0. 05 ), while physicians' and patients' negative evaluations of the experimental group were less than the control (P ＜0. 05). VAS of physicians' satisfaction in the experimental group was higher than that of the control group (84 vs 70, t =14. 67, P ＜ 0. 05), and VAS of patients' satisfaction in the experimental group was superior to the control group (82 vs 71, t =11.56, P ＜ 0. 05). The number of patients wiring to undergo a second procedure in the experimental group was higher than that of the control (89. 7％ vs 69. 9％, P ＜ 0. 05). ConclusionNitrous oxide-sedated transnasal endoscopy is an effective and safe procedure for high risk patients of intravenous anesthesia.
