The vectors play an important role in gene therapy by transporting the therapy genes into target tumor cells. At present there are mainly two kinds of gene vectors, including biological and non-biological vectors. Biological vectors, including virus, bacteria and stem cells, have good target activity and can efficiently delivery the genes into target tumor cells, but have potential genetic hazards.However, non-biological vectors, including liposomes and nanoparticles, can be simplely prepared with high genetic safety, but they can not transport the genes efficiently. Therefore, establishing safe and effective malignant glioma gene treatment system and finding gene vectors with good target activity become the research focus.

Objective To observe the toxic effects of mercuric chloride (HgCl2) on the productive function of male mice with lower dosage exposune. Methods 4 week-aged male ICR mice were randomly divided into 3 exposure groups, and control group. The 3 exposure groups were treated with doses of 0.25, 0.50, 1.00 mg/kg HgCl2 by peritoneal injection respectively, one time per 3 days, 10 times in total. After exposure to HgCl2 for 50 days, the male mice were mated with female mice non-exposed to HgCl2 in a ratio 1∶2. The pregnant rate, number of pups whelped per group, body weight of offspring, testis index, sperm count, sperm motility rate, abnormal sperm rate were observed. Results The pregnant rates were 100%, 100%, 83.33% and 66.67% for control group, 0.25 mg/kg group, 0.50 mg/kg group and 1.00 mg/kg group respectively during 1-week conception, 100%, 100%, 83.33% and 75% for above corresponding groups respectively during 3-weeks conception respectively. The pregnant rate of 1.00 mg/kg group was significantly lower than that of control during 1-week conception (P

Objective:To explore the role of MVD, bFGF and VEGF in OMFS and the relationship between them. Methods: Immunochemistry streptavidin peroxidase method was used to detect the MVD and the bFGF, VEGF expressions in 57 cases of OMFS samples. Results: MVD, bFGF and VEGF expressions were different between OMFS and benign. The close correlations were found among the expressions of VEGF, bFGF and MVD. Conclusion: The expressions of VEGF and bFGF are associated with MVD which indicated that VEGF and bFGF may play important roles in angiogenesis.

This study was aimed to evaluate the clinical effect of 66 yin-deficiency acne cases treated with body constitution adjustment using acupuncture and moxibustion. In this research, 66 acne patients with the body con-stitution of yin-deficiency were selected . These patients were randomly divided into two groups ( 33 every group ) . The acupuncture treatment group was treated by acupuncture and local treatment. And moxibustion treatment group was treated by indirect moxibustion and local treatment. The treatment was given twice a week. And the improvement condition of acne skin lesions and yin-deficiency body constitution were evaluated after 12-week treatment. The results showed that certain curative effects were received in both groups. However, the moxibustion treatment group had higher curative effect compared with the acupuncture treatment group. There were significant statistical differences between two groups ( P < 0 . 05 ) , which meant moxibustion with local treatment had a higher curative effect than acupuncture with local treatment to acne. In the aspect of skin lesion improvement, according to the statistics, the moxibustion treatment group were statistically significant compared with acupuncture group (P< 0.05), which meant more obvious improvement of skin in the moxibustion treatment group. In the aspect of body constitution, the body constitution scores in both groups were significantly declined and the moxibustion treatment group was more obvious. There was statistical significance between two groups (P < 0.05), which meant patients in the moxibustion treatment group obtained a more obvious body constitution improvement. After the treatment, follow-up was given to all patients for 4 weeks. The results showed that both the acne skin lesion con-dition and yin-deficiency body constitution score were decreased and not achieve the recurrence diagnostic stan-dard. It showed that acupuncture and moxibustion are able to activate the self-regulation and disease resistibility of the body. It was concluded that acupuncture and moxibustion not only improve skin lesion of acne patients with the body constitution of yin-deficiency with inner heat , but also regulate yin-deficiency body constitution . Moxibustion had higher efficacy in the treatment of yin-deficiency with inner heat acne than acupuncture.

Objective To evaluate the value of multislice spiral computed tomography angiography (MSCTA) in differential diagnosis between epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC) and borderline epithelial ovarian tumor (BOT).Methods The MSCTA images of 39 EOC patients and 23 BOT patients confirmed by surgical pathology were reviewed retrospectively.Main characteristics of tumor vessels were analyzed: the number of feeding arteries, the existence of dilated draining veins, whether the tumor vessels were tortuous, whether the distribution of tumor vessels were disturbed, and whether there were accompanying microaneurysms or arteriovenous malformations (AVMs).Results Two or more feeding arteries of the EOCs and BOTs were 89.7% (35/39) and 8.7% (2/23), respectively.Dilated draining veins were observed in 87.2% (34/39) of the EOCs and 4.3% (1/23) of the BOTs.The tortuosity of tumor vessels was observed in 97.4% (38/39) of the EOCs and 13.0% (3/23) of the BOTs.79.5% (31/39) of the EOCs and 8.7% (2/23) of the BOTs were complicated by microaneurysms, and 74.4% (29/39) of the EOCs and 4.3% (1/23) of the BOTs were complicated by AVMs.The characteristics of tumor vessels were significantly different between the two groups (P<0.01), with relatively high sensitivity and specificity.Conclusion MSCTA can better show the distribution, number and pattern of tumor vessels and is of great value in differential diagnosis between EOC and BOT.
