Arabidopsis REVERSION-TO-ETHYLENE SENSITIVITY1 （RTE1）, interacting with ETR1, and its homologs tomato GREEN RIPE （SlGR） and SlGRL1, and rice OsRTH1 negatively regulate the ethylene signaling （Barry and Giovannoni, 2006, Resnick et al., 2006; Dong et al., 2010; Zhang et al., 2012）. A newly published study suggested that a cytochrome b5 and RTE1 are functional partners in promoting ETRl-mediated repression of ethylene signaling in Arabidopsis （Chang et al., 2014）. However, AtRTH, RTE1 homolog in Arabidopsis, and its closest homolog in the tomato, SlGRL2 （GR-like2）, do not play a role in ethylene signaling （Dong et al., 2010）, and the function of the homologs of these members is not well known.展开更多

Intraductal papillomas (lesions) were more commonly seen in type Ⅰ and Ⅱ, and intraductal carcinomas, or early infiltrating ductal carcinomas were more commonly seen in type Ⅲ and Ⅳ;there was a statistically significant difference in the distribution of the ductoscopic types, except in type Ⅱ, between the two types of lesions, P<0.001. The focal detection rate by FDS for intraductal papilloma and papillomatosis was 99.6% (228/229) and for breast cancer was 96.0% (48/50). The diagnostic accuracy was 97.8% (224/229) and 82.0% (41/50),respectively.CONCLUSION FDS can be a guide for the treament of benign and malignant intraductal tumors, with early discovery and accurate diagnosis.展开更多

Methods 3AO cell proliferation was evaluated by viable cell count, percentage of cells in each cycle phase were analyzed by flow cytometric analysis, alkaline phosphatase (AKP) activity was determined as described , and CA125 expression was measured by ELISA. Results RA could inhibit the proliferation of 3AO cells accompanied with morphological changes in a dose-dependent manner. Cell cycle analysis indicated that RA inhibition of 3AO cells growth occurred through induction of G1 arrest with a concomitant reduction in the proportion of cells in S phase, AKP activity increased significantly after treatment with RA(0.1 μmol/L) for 1-5 days. Dose-response studies revealed that the AKP activity increased to a different extent as a function of RA concentrations. Furthermore, RA could suppress the expression of CA125 tumor marker in 3AO cells.Conclusion RA could markedly inhibit the proliferation and induce the differentiation of 3AO cells. for 1-5 days.
