Objective:To investigate the effects of siRNA-mediated Plk1 depletion on COS-7 cells and the therapeutic potential of Plk1 in cancer treatment.Methods:Small interfering RNA(siRNA) were used to specifically deplete Plk1 in COS-7 cells.RT-PCR and immol/Lunoblotting analysis were used to verify the inhibitory effect of siRNA against Plk1.Trypan blue exclusion assay and FACS analysis were conducted to determine the effects of Plk1 depletion on the growth and cell cycle profile of COS-7 cells.Results:Synthetic siRNA duplexes against Plk1 were introduced into COS-7 cells,which subsequently resulted in a significant inhibition in Plk1 expression in the cells.Cell growth assay indicated that siRNA-mediated Plk1 depletion significantly inhibited the proliferation of COS-7 cells.FACS analysis revealed that Plk1 depletion caused cell cycle arrest,resulting into large population of sub-G1 cells.Conclusion:siRNA-mediated Plk1 depletion significantly inhibited the proliferation of COS-7 cells suggesting the therapeutic potential of Plk1 in cancer treatment.

B signal transduction pathway in laryngeal carcinoma patients.Methods:The expression of IKK?, I?B?,NF-?B P65 was examined by immunohistochemical S-P method in laryngeal carcinoma tissues of 40 cases and normal laryngeal tissues of 20 cases.Results:The expression of IKK? and NF-?B P65 in laryngeal carcinoma tissue was higher compared with normal laryngeal tissue,while the expression of I?B? was lower( P

Objective:To investigate the expression and significance of NF-?B,and ICAM-1 in laryngeal carcinoma patients.Methods:Two groups of laryngeal carcinoma tissue (one group derived from the laryngeal carcinoma patients;the other from the normal persons) were detected for NF-kappa B P65 protein and ICAM-1′s expressions by immunohistochemistry staining.Results:(1)The expressions of NF-kappa B P65 protein and ICAM-1 of the laryngeal carcinoma patients were much more strengthened than those of the normal persons(P

Objective:To make a synthetic comment on treatment of children cerebral palsy with acupuncture in recent 10 years in China.Methods:Related papers were gotten from the journals between 1999-2008 in Chinese journal full-test database and VIP information-Chinese technology journal database by computer retrieval.The collected 143 papers were analyzed from the terms of clinical acupoints selection,treatment methods,time,and mechanism,and then summarized the clinical effects of acupuncture in treating children cerebral palsy.Results:The acupoints selection was focus on scalp acupuncture functional area and body points(including scalp points).Beside acupuncture treatment,the combination of acupoint embedding therapy,acupoint injection,and massage were also used.The therapy time was different from 20min to 4h,and the treatment course was usually be counted by month.The effects of acupuncture treatment were considered to be significant through improving brain circulation and recovering brain cells' function. Conclusion:Acupuncture treatment had advantages in improving the child'limbs function,nevertheless further studies on the research methods,study design and mechanism were all needed.

In order to improve the effect of teaching and teachers' ability,make our teaching methods adapt to the social development,the department of Endocrinology used the method of preparing lessons collectively in our teaching.We found that the method not only made the the supply of teachers reasonably but also made good contribution to the students' culture.Practice testified that the method of preparing lessons collectively could adapt to the new model of cultivation and create substantial results.

Objective To evaluate the association between genetic polymorphisms in promoter regions of matrix metalloprotein‐ase‐1 (MMP‐1)‐1607bp1G/2G ,matrix metalloproteinase‐7 (MM P‐7)‐181‐bpA /G and susceptibility of cervical cancer using Meta‐analysis .Methods Relevant studies that had relationships of the polymorphism in promoter regions of matrix metalloproteinase‐1 (MM P‐1)‐1607bp1G/2G ,matrix metalloproteinase‐7 (MMP‐7)‐181‐bpA /G and susceptibility of cervical cancer were collected as case‐control groups .RevMan5 .0 software was applied to analyze the odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals(CI) of the as‐sociation between polymorphisms and susceptibility of cervical cancer .Results Finally ,6 studies were selected ,containing 4 studies of MMP‐1 and 2 studies of MMP‐7 .For MMP‐1‐1607bp1G/2G ,OR was 0 .76 (95% CI = 0 .51 - 1 .13 ,P= 0 .17) under 1G/1G +1G/2G ∶ 2G/2G model ,OR was 0 .72 (95% CI = 0 .42 - 1 .23 ,P = 0 .42) under 1G/1G ∶ 2G/2G model ,OR was 0 .79(95% CI =0 .57 - 1 .09 ,P= 0 .15) under 1G ∶ 2G model ,it was concluded that there was no statistical significance between them .For MM P‐7‐181bpA /G ,OR was 0 .47 (95% CI = 0 .30 - 0 .74 ,P= 0 .001) under AA + AG ∶ GG model ,OR was 0 .43 (95% CI = 0 .26 - 0 .74 , P= 0 .002) under AA ∶ GG model ,OR was 0 .77(95% CI = 0 .62 - 0 .94 ,P= 0 .02) under A ∶ G model ,there were statistical signifi‐cance differences under all models .Conclusion Polymorphisms in promoter of MMP‐7‐118bpA/G are associated with the suscepti‐bility of cervical cancer and an allele is a protective factor .It is still not confirmed that significant association between the MM P‐1‐1607bp1G/2G and susceptibility to cervical cancer exists in current literature .

Guided by systematic material evaluation theory,the present study assessed textbooks of medical English listening and speaking published over the last 20 years,and conducted a relevant survey to investigate different opinions of the textbooks among teachers and students.It found that cognitive schema theory,information processing theory,the register theory and communicative principle were adopted as guidelines in the compilation.Multi-tasks were utilized to train language skills;medical terminology learning was put great emphasis on;original audio-visual materials were employed.Besides,the majority of the textbooks were compiled based on topics or situations.However,most textbooks of medical English listening and speaking miss the section for cultivating students' autonomous learning,independent thinking as well as phonetic exercise,and they lack the teacher's book and students' book,which should be improved soon.

Objective To investigate the application value of detection of serum miRNA-210,miRNA-23b in the patients with the femoral head necrosis.Methods The serum and clinical data of 135 patients with the internal fixation operation for the femoral neck fracture were collected.The patients were divided into the necrosis group (27 cases) and non-necrosis group (108 cases),used the real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR (Real time-PCR,RT-PCR) technology to detect serum miRNA-210,miRNA-23b expression in comparatively analysizing the relationship between the changes of serum miRNA 210,23b and occurrence of the femoral head necrosis.Results The serum microRNA-210,-23b expression in the necrosis group were 0.19±0.03,0.21±0.05,which in the non-necrosis group were 0.92±0.18 and 0.87±0.17.The serum microRNA-210,-23b expression in the necrosis group were significantly lower than those in the non-necrosis group,the difference had statistical significance (P＜0.01).The analysis results from the receiver-operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) showed that AUC of serum miRNA-210,miRNA-23b expression were 0.790 (95％CI:0.687～0.892,P=0.000) and 0.743 (95％CI:0.633～0.854,P=0.000),respectively.The sensitivity and specificity of miRNA-210 and miRNA-23b at the best threshold in diagnosis of the femoral head necrosis were 95.7％ and 93.9％,91.5％ and 92.3％,respectively.The analysis results showed that the serum miRNA-210,-23b expression had clinical significance in diagnosis of the femoral head necrosis.Conclusion Detection of serum miRNA-210,-23b expression can predict occurrence of the femoral head necrosis,estimate development condition of the desease.

Calcific aortic valve disease(CAVD) is the most common valvular disorder.There is no medical treatment to prevent and/or reverse the progression of CAVD and the etiology still requires further study.CAVD has long been described as a degenerative disease related to aging.In the past few years,our comprehension of the etiology and mechanisms leading to CAVD has progressed at a fast pace.In this article,we review the latest discoveries of CAVD,from aspects of lipid retention,inflammation,calcification,osteogenic transition and their basic molecular processes.
