During the last forty years, although cytotoxic chemotherapy for gastric cancer patients has improved to some extent, its therapeutic effect is limited. Simultaneously, great progression of oncobiology to increase our understanding of the molecular basis of gastric cancer has been made. Currently the cancer cell has been characterized by several genetic changes that lead to altered cellular functions. In addition, multiple cancer-cell environment factors affect the tumor cell via various receptors and subsequent signaling pathways. The increasing knowledge of cellular signaling offers the opportunity to develop novel substances that target specific pathway molecules.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze and evaluate the quantitative evaluation of ADR signals in FDA and to provide a reference for ADR evaluation in China. METHODS: By means of literature review,contrasting analysis and data reduction,ADR signal evaluation in FDA was investigated. RESULTS&CONCLUSION: In USA MGPS method is used for the quantitative evaluation of ADR signal, which can earlier obtain ADR signal and effectively promote the risk warning ability of ADR information. This is practical in our country and we should learn from them. Combined with various data analyzing methods, we can set up a high-quality evaluation database for ADR signals. The importance of pharmacoepidemiology and statistics in ADR evaluation should be highly recognized and the methods for ADR signals evaluation should be gradually shifted from qualitative to quantitative evaluation.

AIM: To investigate the mRNA changes of L-type Ca~(2+) channel ?_(1C) subunit (CaL-?_(1C)) and Na~+-Ca~(2+) exchanger (NCX) in the atria of renovascular hypertensive rats. METHODS: Two-kidney one-clip Goldblatt hypertensive Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups 1 week after operation, HD group was treated with 250 mg/d diltiazem, LD group was treated with 50 mg/d diltiazem, control group (C group) was treated with vehicle. After 4 weeks treatment, semiquantitative RT-PCR was used to estimate the mRNA changes of CaL-?_(1C) and NCX, and GAPDH was used as internal control. RESULTS: Systolic blood pressure in LD group was comparable with C group, and that in HD group was decreased to normal level after diltiazem treatment. In C group, CaL-?_(1C) mRNA level were 2.5, 2.4 and 2.1 times of S, HD and LD group, and NCX mRNA level were 1.9, 1.6 and 2.1 times of S, HD and LD group. There were no significant difference in the mRNA level of CaL-?_(1C) and NCX among S, HD and LD group. CONCLUSION: The mRNA levels of CaL-?_(1C) and NCX are upregulated in the atria of hypertensive rats. Ca~(2+) antagonist inhibits their upregulation independent of blood pressure.

Objective To understand whether or not artesunate (Art. ) combined with naphtho-quine (Nap. ) can delay the resistance of Plasmodium falciparum to Art. Methods In Group A, P. falciparum was cultured in culture medium and was stimulated by Art/Nap disconnectedly, and in Group B, stimulated by Art disconnectedly. When P. falciparum recovered to normal growth level, the changes of sensitivity (ID50) to the drugs were compared between the two groups after P. falciparum touched on the drug. Results In Group A, the times P. falciparum recovered to normal growth level were 24, 37 d respectively when it contacted the drugs in the first and second times; P. falciparum didn't recover to normal growth level in 90 d when it contacted the drugs in the third time. In Group B, the times P. falciparum recovered to normal growth level were 16. 7 d (15-20) on average. ID50(s) of Art/Nap were 2.42/37.81, 1. 70/26.30 nmol/L before and 65 d after contacting the drugs in Group A; ID50(s) of Art were 9. 60, 30. 61, 85.12 nmol/L before and 68 and 129 d after contacting the drug in Group B. Conclusion Artesunate-resistant P. falciparum can be cultured by touching artesunate at intervals in vitro; Artesunate combined with naph-thoquine may delay the resistance of P. falciparum to artesunate in vitro.

Objective This article aims to study the impact of cyclopamine,a Hedgehog signaling pathway inhibitor,on the proliferation and apoptosis of QBC939 cholangiocarcinoma cells.Methods The proliferation of QBC939 cells was detected with the MTT assay,and the apoptotic rate was analyzed with the flow cytometry assay.RT-PCR and Western blow were used to detect the expressions of tumor-related genes and proteins in QBC939 cells before and after cyclopamine treatment.Results Our results show that cyclopamine inhibited the growth of QBC939 cells in time and dose dependent manners.After a 5,10,or 20 μmol/L cyclopamine treatment for 48 hours,QBC939 cells showed increased apoptotic rates significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.01).Furthermore,cyclopamine down regulated the mRNA and protein levels of PTCH1,GLI1,and EGFR in QBC939 cells.Conclusion Therefore,blockage of the Hedgehog signaling pathway with cyclopamine could suppress the proliferation and promote the apoptosis of QBC939 cholangiocarcinoma cells.

Objective To discuss whether preoperative extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) could improve the efficacy of percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) for complicated renal calculi. Methods 160 cases of complicated renal calculi patients were divided into observation group (80) and control group (80) at random. Take conventional PCNL treatment for control group, and ESWL treatment one day before conventional PCNL treatment for observation group. Record the operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative calculi clearance rate, complications, treatment costs, hospital stays of two groups of patients, then compare the curative effects between the two groups. Results Results are very different in the two groups, and the therapeutic effect of observation group is much better than control group (P < 0.05). Conclusions For complicated renal calculi, compared with conventional PCNL, in reducing the residual stone rate shorting the operation time, reducing the operation number, complications, treatment costs and the length of hospital stay, PCNL preoperative ESWL have obvious advantages. It is a kind of both economic and safe and effective treatment method.
