The voltage-gated potassium channels Kvl.5 is widely expressed in the plasma membranes of numerous tumor cells and it can contribute to a variety of cellular functions such as proliferation,ap optosis,and cell cycle.Several types of antineoplastic drugs can change the expression of Kv1.5 and then affect the biological processes.Kv1.5 is identified as a novel target for therapy in human cancer.The researches of Kv1.5 will contribute to gain a further understanding of the molecular mechanism of tumor and provide therapeutic opportunity for the prevention and treatment of cancer.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for developing the antibiotic community pharmaceutical care. METHODS:Some residents of Jiangbei district of Ningbo were randomly collected for questionnaire survey on antibiotic storage,usage,accep-tance degree and demand of pharmaceutical care,etc. And the results were analyzed statistically. RESULTS:Totally 2 000 ques-tionnaires were sent out,1 784 were effectively received with effective rate of 89.2%. 74.2% of respondents had kept antibiotics in house;61.3% lacked antibiotic knowledge and easily be confused with anti-inflammatory drugs,43.5% thought antibiotics was ef-fective for virus infections;48.4% had self-treated with antibiotics,the most common reason was cold symptoms,and it existed amount or course of antibiotics changes by themselves;only 15.1%of them had knew or heard of pharmaceutical care;majority re-spondents(88.9%)wanted to accept antibotic pharmaceutical care,hoping to learn the indications,usage and dosage,contraindica-tions,precautions and adverse reactions of antibiotics by drug consultation,lecture,etc. CONCLUSIONS:The residents lack the knowledge about rational use of antibiotics,it is urgent for pharmacists to provide antibiotic community pharmaceutical care for resi-dents with purpose,which are important guarantee for rational use of antibiotics.

In order to estimate the relationship between iron and the Alzheimer's disease, the behavioral and pathological changes were observed by Morris water maze and immunohistochemical staining respectively after injecting FeC13 into brain ventricle of rats. The apoptosis was tested by flow cytometry and the electron microscopy was used to observe ultrastructural changes. There were significant differences in escape latency of time and distance between normal animals and iron treated rats. Percentage and fluorescence intension (FI) of AnnexinV FITC loaded cells undergoing apoptosis were higher in iron treated rats compared with normal animals. Fawn-coloured products of β amyloid protein were interspersedly distributed in extensive areas of cerebral cortex and hippocampus. Under electron microscope, vacuolate degeneration of neuronal processes with mitochondria degeneration and accumulation of microtubule near vacuolar nucleus were observed in iron treated rats. These results suggest that a local higher concentration of iron in brain may induce Alzheimer-like impairment of intelligence and pathological changes.

Objective To explore the role of protein kinase C(PKC) to regulate the activation of nuclear factor-?B(NF-?B)in T lymphocyte in children with acute idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura(ITP).Methods Sterility peripheral blood was collected from acute ITP children(n=30)and healthy children(n=30).T lymphocytes were isolated and purified,and divided into 3 groups:control group,PMA group stimulated with PMA,PMA plus H-7 group stimulated with PMA and H-7.The expression of NF-?B and inhibitor protein-?B(I-?B)was detected by immunohistochemical staining and Western blot,respectively.Results The percentage of cells with active NF-?B was significantly higher and the expression level of I-?B was significantly lower in acute ITP PMA group than that in acute ITP control group and normal PMA group,respectively(all P

With the concepts of minimal invasive surgery and precision medicine embedding deeply in modern medicine, traditional clinical treatment strategies are constantly updated due to the rapid progression of medical research. Systematic dissection of the regional lymph nodes is a key component in the surgical therapy of gynecologic malignancies, however it may result in a series of complications, such as lower extremity lymphedema, deep venous thrombosis, immune disorders and so on, which seriously impact the patients' quality of life. The necessity of systematic lymphadenectomy and the extent of lymph nodes resection have always been one of the most controversial issues in gynecologic oncology. In recent years, the extensive application of sentinel lymph node (SLN) technology has been increasingly used in the treatment of gynecologic malignancies, which may provide important guidance on this issue. This article reviews the clinical application status, detection methods, detection efficiency, and current controversies regarding SLN mapping and biopsy in cervical cancer, endometrial cancer, ovarian cancer and vulvar cancer, discussing the application value of SLN technology in gynecologic oncology.

Objective: To design the ribozymes to cleave human TIMP 1 mRNA, and embed them into U 6snRNA to make them stable. Methods: Ribozymes were designed according to the “hammerhead structure” described by Symons.Computer was used to analyze the possible cleavage sites. Results: Three ribozymes targeting the nt123, nt299 and nt353 on TIMP 1 mRNA were designed. Embedding ribozyme in U 6snRNA had little effect on its binding with the substrate. Conclusion: Computer assisted design is indispensable in studying ribozyme. Embedding ribozymes in U 6snRNA may be a good way to solve the problems existing in ribozyme study. [

Background and purpose:Promoter methylation ofPCDH10, a gene encoding protocadherin 10, has been found to be correlated to poor prognosis in gastric cancer (GC) patients. However, the relationship between the expression of PCDH10 and prognosis in GC remained unknown. This study aimed to explore the relationship be-tween the expression of PCDH10 and clinicopathological features and prognosis of GC, and to identify biomarker for predictions of recurrence and survival of GC.Methods:mRNA expressions of PCDH10 in 115 pairs of GC tissues and adjacent normal tissues were detected by real-time lfuorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RTFQ-PCR). The correlation between PCDH10 expression level and clinicopathological features and prognosis of GC was analyzed. Prediction models for 5-year recurrence and 5-year survival were established using logistic regression method.Results:Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were signiifcantly prolonged in patients with PCDH10 low expression compared to patients without PCDH10 low expression (P=0.046 andP=0.033 respectively). PCDH10 low expression signiifcantly correlated with less lymph node metastasis (P=0.001) and earlier TNM staging (P=0.001), and was more common in female than in male (P=0.040). The mRNA expression of PCDH10 did not correlate with age, Lauren classiifcation, T stage, neural invasion or vascular invasion. Univariate Cox analysis showed Lauren classiifca-tion, T stage, N stage, M stage and PCDH10 expression signiifcantly correlated with PFS and OS. Logistic regression models for the prediction of 5-year recurrence or 5-year survival based on clinicopathological features included Lauren classiifcation, T stage, N stage and M stage as variables. Logistic regression models for the prediction of 5-year recur-rence or 5-year survival based on PCDH10 expression included Lauren classiifcation, T stage, M stage and PCDH10 expression level but not N stage as variables. The models based on PCDH10 expression had the same effciencies as models based on clinical parameters in predicting 5-year recurrence or 5-year survival for GC patients.Conclusion:PCDH10 low expression correlated with better prognosis, less lymph node metastasis and earlier TNM stage in GC patients. Low expression of PCDH10 may be a biomarker of better survival for GC patients. Logistic regression model based on PCDH10 mRNA expression may serve as a prediction model when patients have unknown lymph node metas-tasis status.
