1.MMP-9 expression in breast cancer metastasis and its clinical significance
International Journal of Biomedical Engineering 2010;33(6):381-384
Matrix metallopmteinase 9(MMP-9) is one kind of matrix metalloproteinases and plays a role in the process of breast cancer metastasis. It can not only degrade the basement membrane and the extracellular matrix around tumor tissue but also promote angiogenesis, even create conditions for the growth of tumors, local invasion and distant metastasis. Current study shows that the over-expression of MMP-9 can significantly speed up the breast lymph node metastasis and the relevant research will provide guidance for clinical treatment and prognosis of breast cancer.

Chinese Health Economics 2014;(5):78-80
Setting quantity and quality of services as the base, patient satisfaction as the core of the performance appraisal and salary distribution system are important content of the current comprehensive reform of township hospital. To guarantee the profits for public in township health cares, prevent profiteering behavior, mobilize the staff’s work enthusiasm and establish an effective performance appraisal and salary distribution system are the most focused and considered problems for a great number of township health cares. The example hospital introduced the “progressive scoring” and “incremental increase in return”, which had positive effect.
3.Research progress of ERCC1 in non-small cell lung cancer based on the platinum drugs
Journal of International Oncology 2014;41(12):909-912
Excision repair cross complementing group 1 (ERCC1) gene is an enzyme of the speed limit of DNA repair protein in nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathways.Researches suggest that ERCC1 has been associated with cisplatin resistance in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients.Thus,ERCC1 gene is a new target in malignant tumor gene therapy research,providing a new approach for the treatment of malignant,especially NSCLC.
4.Expressions of Kidney β-Klotho and Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 1 in Experimental Rats Model With Vascular Calcification
Chinese Circulation Journal 2017;32(5):507-510
Objective: To observe the impact of vascular calcification on kidney injury rats with the expressions of β-Klotho, fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) in kidney tissue in order to find the predictor for early chronic kidney disease (CKD), to provide the prevention and investigation basis of vascular calcification and CKD. Methods: Vascular calcification model was induced by vitamin D3 and nicotine injection in experimental rats and the animals were divided into 2 groups: Normal control group and Calcification group. n=6 in each group. Serum levels of creatinine and urea nitrogen were examined by sarcosine oxidase method and UV-glutamate dehydrogenase method respectively; blood levels of calcium and phosphorus were detected by biochemistry method; kidney tissue alkaline phosphatases (ALP) activity was measured by ALP detection kit, protein expressions of β-Klotho and FGFR1 were assessed by ELISA.Results: Compared with Normal control group, Calcification group showed increased serum levels of creatinine (35.200±4.087) umol/L vs (26.000±5.0990) umol/L and urea nitrogen (6.900±0.623) mmol/L vs (5.400±0.803) mmol/L, both P<0.05; elevated kidney tissue ALP activity (60.510±31.090) U/g vs (26.590±8.664) U/g and β-Klotho protein expression (9.052±1.238) ng/mg vs (6.860±1.036) ng/mg, both P<0.05. Blood levels of calcium, phosphorus and kidney tissue FGFR1 protein content were similar between 2 groups. Conclusion: Large dose vitamin D3 and nicotine injection may induce vascular calcification and early CKD symptom in experimental rats; β-Klotho protein expression was significantly increased suggesting that β-Klotho had been involved in the early regulation of vascular calcification and it could be used for the early diagnosis of CKD at certain point.

6.Correctly understanding the complexity of diagnosis and treatment of children's open ocular trauma to improve its diagnosis and treatment effect
Chinese Journal of Ocular Fundus Diseases 2021;37(5):333-337
Open ocular trauma in children is one of the main causes of non-congenital monocular blindness in children. Children’s psychological and daily activities are different from those of adults; the eye tissue structure is not maturely enough, and the characteristics of high response to injury and incompatibility with various diagnostic and treatment methods determine the factors that cause injuries and injuries in children with open ocular trauma. The environment, diagnosis and treatment, and prognosis of children are more complicated than adults. For the emergency of first and second stage on diagnosis and treatment of children with open ocular trauma, it should follow the principles of adult open ocular trauma management, combined with the children's characteristics, clarifying the anatomical location of the ocular trauma before surgery, and closing the wound during the first-stage operation. At the same time, the disturbance of intraocular tissue should be minimized, the timing of the second stage operation and the individualization of the operation design, and the medication and care after the operation should also be combined with the characteristics of children. Prevention of ocular trauma in children is the focus of attention. In the new information era, clinical research and public information platforms should be fully utilized to advance the epidemiological study of children's ocular trauma and guide the construction of the prevention and treatment system for children's ocular trauma more scientifically.

Journal of International Oncology 2011;38(8):572-574
Recent researches show that follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) plays an important regulatory role in the angiogenesis of ovarian cancer by influencing the level of some factors such as hypoxia inducefactor-1 ( HIF-1 ) ,vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Meanwhile, recent studies report that FSH and FSH receptor(FSHR) may also participate in the angiogenesis of other solid tumors like lung cancer. FSH is closely related to the tumor angiogenesis, which provides a novel therapeutic target for anti-angiogenesis thera-py.

BACKGROUND:Smoking is one of the major risk factors for the formation of atherosclerosis. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of cigarette smoke extract on the concentration of GATA-2 in the vascular smooth muscle cells and in which the role of the early growth response factor-1. METHODS:Vascular smooth muscle cells were cultured in vitro. The vascular smooth muscle cells were treated with various concentrations of cigarette smoke extract (0, 5%, 10%, 20%), then the reverse transcription PCR was applied to detect the mRNA expression of GATA-2. The vascular smooth muscle cells were treated with cigarette smoke extracts in the optimal concentration for 0, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours, and then the expression of GATA-2 mRNA was observed, as wel as the changes of expression of GATA-2 mRNA after added with growth response factor-1. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared to the 0 concentration group, the expression of GATA-2 mRNA after treated with low concentration (5%) of cigarette smoke extract was increased more significantly than moderate concentration (10%) and high concentration (20%). The vascular smooth muscle cells in 0 hour group expressed GATA-2 mRNA at low level. The GATA-2 mRNA began to increase within 4 hours and reached peak at the 8 hours after stimulated with cigarette smoke extract of 5%concentration. After added with growth response factor-1 inhibitors, the expression of GATA-2 mRNA in 5%cigarette smoke extract induced vascular smooth muscle cells was decreased. Cigarette smoke extract can promote the increasing of GATA-2 by growth response factor-1, while the GATA-2 expression is reduced after the inhibition of growth response factor-1.

Objective To screen and identify proteins that interact with receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) with T7 select phage display system. Method GST-tagged fusion protein of RAGE was coated on glutathione suporflow resin and binding screens were performed with human lung T7 phage library. Results After 6 rounds of biopanning, 64 independent plaques were scraped and processed with EDTA. The inserted fragments in these plaques were amplified by PCR and the PCR products were purified by a gel recovery method. The sequences of the insertions were identified and analyzed with BLAST program in GeneBank. Twenty-five clones of encoding proteins were found. Conclusions T7 select phage display system is a convenient, rapid and effective method for screening binding proteins. This study provides an approach to explore complicated functions and novel mechanisms of RAGE-related signal transduction pathways.
