Targeted therapy is the most prospective part of the research related to the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC). After epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR),anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)gene is expected to become a new target in the treatment of NSCLC. Moreover,several related resear-ches suggest that ALK inhibitor(crizotinib)is effective for treatment of ALK-rearranged NSCLC. Therefore,it is important to review the detection method of ALK gene,clinicopathologic features and the research progress of ALK inhibitor for the individual treatment of NSCLC.

Angelicae Sinensis Radix, dried roots of Angelicae sinensis, is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine. Six compounds were isolated and purified by silica gel and preparative HPLC. According to physicochemical properties and spectral data, the compounds were identified as senkyunolide H-7-acetate (1), o-phthalic acid (2), diisobutyl phthalate (3), p-hydroxyphenylethanol ferulate (4), ferulic acid (5) and coniferylferulate (6). Compound 1 was a new one.

Objective To investigate the effect of propofol on hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction(HPV)and assess the underlying mechanism in rats.Methods Twenty male SD rats weighing 300-400 g were.anesthetizedwith intraperitoneal phenobarbital.Heart and lungs were removed after thoracotomy.Pulmonary.arterial rings 4 mmin length and 1.0-1.4 mm in diameter were prepared and suspended in Earl solution maintained at 37℃ with a pHof 7.40 and aerated with 20% O_2-5% CO_2-25% N_2.The rings were stimulated with phenylephrine(PE)10~(-6)mol?L~(-1) with different preloads(300,500,700,900,1 100 mg).The isometric tension of the arterial rings wasmeasured.The optimal preload was determined to be 900 mg which allowed best contractility.Hypoxia was inducedby aerating the solution with 95% N_2-5% CO_2 and the flow rate was adjusted to maintain PO_2 of the solution at40-20 mm Hg and pH at 7.40.HPV of the rings were recorded.Then propofol was added to achieve a finalconcentration of 1,3,10,30,100 ?mol?L~(-1) and HPV was again induced and the changes in HPV wererecorded.In addition the effects of propofol(10,30 ?mol?L~(-1))on vasoconstriction produced by KCI and PE werealso measured.Results The lower doses of propofol(10 ?mol?L~(-1))significantly inhibited HPV(P

Objective Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) have been demonstrated to play an important role in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). In this study we assessed the expression of PARP on peripheral blood mononuclear cells with active or inacte SLE and tried to investigate the relationship between PARP and cell apoptosis on SLE. Methods Thirty definitive SLE patients and 10 healthy controls were enrolled. PBMC were separated from the peripheral blood samples. Western blot technique was applied to analyze the expression of PARP. Flow cytometry were applied to analyze the cell apoptosis. T test were used. Results The cell apoptosis in active patients with SLE was significantly higher than that of inactive patients with SLE and normal controls (the t values were 4.83 and 5.05 respectively, P<0.05). The level of PARP expression was significantly decreased in active patients with SLE as compared with controls and inactive patients with SLE (the t values were 7.66 and 7.07 respectively, P<0.05). At the same time, the cleavage fragment of PARP increased in active patients. Conclusion The results suggest that PARP may be involved in the pathogenesis of SLE and the expression level may be a good indicator for disease activity of SLE . Decrease of PARP may promote the occurrence and development of SLE. In addition, PARP may play a certain role in adjusting cell apoptosis in patients with SLE.

This study was aimed to observe the effect of Danzhi Jiangtang Capsule ( DJC ) on expression of solu-ble thrombomodulin ( sTM ) and soluble endothelial cell protein C receptor ( sEPCR ) in experimental rats of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study also explored possible mechanisms of Yiqi Yangyin Huoxue method on vascular endothelial tissue and discussed mechanisms of prevention and management of T2DM vascular lesions . A total of 60 male Sprague-Dawley ( SD ) rats were fed for one week and then randomly divided into the nor-mal control group ( group N , n = 12 , rats were fed with routine food ) and diabetes mellitus group ( n = 48 , rats were fed with high-fat diet). After 4 weeks, rats in the diabetes mellitus group were injected with strepto-zotocin ( STZ ) to induce T2DM . According to the blood glucose level , rats were divided into three groups , wh ich were the model group (group M), pioglitazone (group P), and pioglitazone combined with DJC (group D). Group P was treated with pioglitazone (10 mg?kg-1?d-1), group D was given pioglitazone (10 mg?kg-1?d-1) and DJC ( 0 . 47 g?kg-1?d-1 ) . The group N and group M were treated with sodium chloride ( 5 mL?kg -1?d-1 ) . After four-week drug administration , the levels of sTM , sEPCR , PT , APTT and FIB in each group were tested . The results showed that compared with the control group , the levels of sTM , sEPCR and FIB in group M , group P and group D were significantly increased ( P < 0 . 05 ) , and the levels of PT and APTT were obviously reduced ( P < 0 . 05 ) . Compared with group P , the levels of sTM , sEPCR , FIB of group D were significantly reduced ( P< 0 . 01 ) , and the level of APTT was significantly increased ( P < 0 . 05 ) . However , there was no significant dif-ference in the increasing of PT. It was concluded that the Yiqi Yangyin Huoxue method can reduce the levels of sTM and sEPCR , and effectively improve coagulation . The possible mechanisms of protective effect on the vascular endothelium can be from reducing levels of sTM and sEPCR in order to enhance the activity of anti-coagulation and fibrinolysis , regulate the function of blood coagulation to improve hypercoagulable state .
