Peripheral blood gene expression profiling represents the pattern of expression of all genes in peripheral blood cells.By comparing the different gene expression of peripheral blood between cancer patients and healthy control or patients with alternative types of tumors,we can draw genes of different expression and further analyze the characteristic gene expression profiling to assist diagnosis and treatment.There have been remarkable advance in study of peripheral blood gene expression profiling in head and neck tumors,chest tumors,abdominal tumors,urinary tract and male reproductive system tumors,gynecological tumors and so on,which lay a foundation for further clinical applications.

Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a common cerebrovascular disease,its disability and mortality rates are higher.It has been confkmed that early brain injury (EBI) and cerebral vasospasm (CVS) are the major pathophysiological mechanisms of causing neurological dysfunction and death after SAH.There are a variety of factors of causing CVS and EBI,including nitric oxide,endothelin,oxyhemoglobin,and proinflarnmatory cytokines.A large number of animal experiments and clinical research have confrmed that statins have neuroprotective effects.This article reviews the neuroprotective effects and its mechanisms of statins in SAH

Objective To investigate the antioxidant activity of Enteromorpha prolifera by ABTS radical scavenging assay in vitro and provide scientific basis for exploitation of Enteromorpha prolifera.Methods The antioxidant activities of extracts by different solvents from Enteromorpha prolifera and water extracts from different Enteromorpha prolifera samples were investigated by ABTS radical scavenging assay.Moreover,the antioxidant ability of the water extract from Enteromorpha prolifera was evaluated by using caffeic acid and ascorbic acid as positive control standards.Results The water extract from Enteromorpha prolifera provided the highest radical scavenging activity,and the antioxidant capability of 1mL of water extract from Enteromorpha prolifera was equivalent to 1mL of 2.55 10~(-3) mg?mL~(-1) caffeic acid or 1mL of 2.89?10~(-3)mg?mL~(-1) ascorbic acid.However,the extraction methods,dry sample or not and different kinds of Enteromorpha prolifera samples had certain influence on the antioxidant activity of water extract from Enteromorpha prolifera. Conclusion There are abundant antioxidant compounds present in the aqueous extract of Enteromorpha prolifera,and it can be exploited as latent oxidation inhibitor.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the growth inhibition and apoptosis of BGC-823 gastric cancer cells induced by Oridonin and its mechanism. METHODS: The Oridonin-treated BGC-823 cells were detected using MTT, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), TUNEL and flow cytometry (FCM) etc. RESULTS: Oridonin(16, 32, and 64 ?g?mL-1) significantly inhibited the proliferation of BGC-823 cells in dose and time dependent manner, with the inhibition rates at 68.5%, 90.8%, and 94.7%, respectively within 24, 48, and 72 h after treatment with 64 ?g?mL-1 Oridnin. When treated with 32 ?g?mL-1 Oridonin for 2 h,mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum were proliferated and swelled under TEM; At 8 h,vacuolization of mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum were noted, the internal structure disappeared, and the nuclear chromatin margination vacuolization were in typical apoptosis change; At 24 h, BGC-823 cells were arrested at G2/M phase, and the apoptosis rate was 37.8% under FCM. CONCLUSION: Oridonin inhibiting proliferation and apoptosis of BGC-823 cells maybe related to G2/M phase arresting, and Oridonin induce apoptosis of BGC-823 cells may through mitochondria or endoplasmic reticulum apoptosis pathway.

Objective:To investigate the state of the use of antibacterial drugs in three two-level hospitals in Uru- mqi city.Method:According to information provided by the system,the statistics of antibacterial drugs amount purchased in three Urumqi hospitals,DDDs and daily cost were retrospectively analyzed.Result:The amount of the antibacterial pur- chases decreased compared with that in 2005.The antibiotics accounted for 16.14 in the Construction Hospital,25.68 in the Children's Hospital and 33.99 in the Coal Hospital.Cephalosporins accounted for more than 30% of the amount of the purchase of antibacterial drugs in every hospital.Conclusion:The application of antibacterial drug proportion was basically reasonable.Cephalosporins were still the most widely used antibacterial drugs.Through further standardization of clinical application of antibacterial drugs,their share will continue to decline hut the proportion of the use of antimicrobials impor- ted and produced in joint ventures will grow.
