Objective To discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the iodized oil,diatrizoate and non-ionic iohexol used as contrast media in performing hysterosalpingography and to evaluate the modified hysterosalpingography in clinical practice.Methods Patients who were scheduled to receive hysterosalpingography were randomly selected and divided into three conventional groups:iodized oil group,diatrizoate group and iohexol group,with 100 cases in each group.Another 100 cases(modified group) were examined with modified hysterosalpingographic technique by using iohexol as contrast medium.During the procedure and after the hysterosalpingography all the patients were carefully observed.The image quality,the fallopian tube patent rate,the incidence of abdominal pain,clinical safety,etc.were documented and the results were compared among groups.The advantages of modified hysterosalpingographic technique were analyzed.Results No significant difference in image quality and the fallopian tube patent rate existed among the three conventional groups.The occurrence of abdominal pain in iohexol group was significantly lower than that in both iodized oil group and diatrizoate group(?2 = 10.54,P

Objective To construct a lentivirus vector for RNA interference targeting myosin Va gene and to observe its effect on motility and migration of human pulmonary giant cell carcinoma PG cells. Methods Based on the efficient target sequence for myosin Va RNAi, two pairs of oligo DNA containing myosin Va RNAi target sequence or scramble sequence were synthesized and inserted into pSuper vector, followed by sequence analysis. The expressing cassette H1 promoter-shM5A/shCON from the recombinant pSuper plasmid was then transferred to the lentivirus vector plenti4, and the recombinant lentivirus was packaged. PG cells were transduced with the packaged lentivirus and the positive cells were screened by zeocin selection. RT-PCR was performed to determine the myosin Va RNAi efficiency in zeocin-resistant PG cells, and wounding assay and Boyden chamber assay were utilized to examine the capabilities of motility and migration in myosin Va RNAi PG cells. Results Restriction enzyme digestion and sequencing confirmed the successful construction of the lentivirus vector containing myosin Va RNAi target or scramble sequence. RT-PCR result showed that myosin Va mRNA levels were remarkably reduced in lentivirus-based myosin Va RNAi PG cells. The abilities of motility and migration were also significantly inhibited in lentivirus-based myosin Va RNAi PG cells, as demonstrated in wounding assay and Boyden chamber assay.Conclusion Myosin Va RNAi lentivirus vector was successfully constructed and efficiently repressed myosin Va expression in PG cells. Repression of myosin Va by RNAi led to the inhibition of PG cells motility and migration, indicating that there might exist correlation between the expression of myosin Va and cancer progression.

To simplify the macrocyclic fragment and to modify the zinc binding group of the natural product apicidin, two series of S-hexyl (heptyl) ethanethioate derivatives were designed and synthesized. Twenty-six compounds were synthesized and confirmed with 1H NMR, IR, MS and HR-MS spectrum, which were not reported. Take vorinostat as control, their antiporliferative activities against cancer cell lines, MCF-7 and HL-60, were tested with MTT assay or trypan blue staining method. Generally in both series it was found that, the chiral carbon atom at 7 position is not necessary, compounds II-1, II-3, II-6 and II-13 showed good activity on HL-60 cells in vitro, with the IC50 values less than 10 micromol x L(-1). II-7 and II-8 showed stronger activity against MCF-7 than Vorinostat, with the IC50 of 3.19 and 6.29 micromol x L(-1), respectively.

Objective To explore the facilitative mechanism of the behavioral improvement resulting from gaming experience in internet gaming addicts. Methods Seventeen gaming addicts and twenty normal subjects were involved in the study, and their behavioral performance were evaluated by using the revised paradigm of event-related design. Results 1. Mean reaction times (RTs) under valid and invalid cue conditions were ( (614.27 ± 85.25)ms,(645.4±80.24)ms)and ((710.24 ± 131.42)ms,(765.53 ± 142. 53)ms) respectively. There were statistically significant differences of mean RTs within each group (P < 0. 05 ) and between the two groups (P < 0.01 ). 2. There were statistically significant differences of mean RTs on three cue levels between addiction group (online game picture(643.65 ±90.82) ms,neutral face picture(616. 73 ±82. 19)ms,neutral picture(629. 21 ± 78.20)ms) and control group(game picture (744. 54 ± 140. 42) ms, neutral face picture ( 727. 98 ± 142.26)ms, neutral picture(741. 13 ±138. 21)ms, P<0.05).3. There were statistically significant differences on trends of mean RTs on three cue levels of addiction group between valid cue condition ( online game picture (619. 02 ± 91.00) ms,neutral face picture (604.90 ±90. 71 )ms,neutral picture (618.87 ±77.85)ms) and invalid cue con-dition( online game picture ( 668. 28 ± 86. 27 ) ms, neutral face picture ( 628. 56 ± 73. 53 ) ms, neutral picture (639.54 ±79. 54) ms, P<0. 05). Conclusion Both exogenous and endogenous attention orientation are improved in internet gaming addicts. Enhancement of endogenous attention function resulting from gaming experience might be greater than that of exogenous attention.

Based on the character of the molecular structure, the prodrugs of phosphates and phosphonates were divided into two categories. The first is the drug which contained the phosphate group, introducing protected groups to increase lipophilicity and improve bioavailability. The other one is the drug which had no phosphate group, introducing the phosphate group into molecules to enhance the solubility, regulate the distribution coefficient and enhance the drug-like property. This review focuses on the application of phosphates and phosphonates in drug research and development based on improvement of physico-chemical property, drug safety and the pharmacokinetics.

To investigate the anticancer effects of ring C in 18β-glycyrrhetinic acid (GA), a series of GA derivatives featured with 9(11)-ene moiety in ring C were designed and synthesized. The structures were confirmed by IR, LC-MS and 1H NMR. Their inhibitory effects towards human prostate cancer PC-3 and leukemia HL-60 cell lines were determined. Most of the derivatives displayed stronger antiproliferative activities than GA. Particularly, compound 14 showed promising anticancer activity with the GI50 values of 4.48 µmol · L(-1) and 1.2 µmol · L(-1) against PC-3 and HL-60 cells respectively, which is worth further study.

Increasing attention has been focused on the antitumor activity of artemisinin derivatives in recent years, for artemisinin had been reported to have cytotoxic effects against HL-60, P388 and MCF-7 tumor cells. We report here the synthesis and evaluation for antitumor activity of a series of artemisinin-ether derivatives bearing tetrahydropyrrole, morpholine, piperidine, substituted piperidines and azoles with various linkers. Sixteen 10-O-substituted dihydroartemisinin derivatives were designed and synthesized, all of which have never been reported in literatures and whose antiproliferative effects on human breast cancer MCF-7, MCF-7/Adr and HL-60 cells were determined by MTT assay or direct cell counting. Each of these artemisinin derivatives possessed better effects than dihydroartemisinin evidently against HL-60 and MCF-7 cells growth, while less potent than doxorubicin. All target compounds exhibited significantly improved potency compared to DHA and doxorubicin on the doxorubicin-resistant MCF-7/Adr cells, so did they in their sensitive counterparts MCF-7 cells. Among them, compounds GF02, GH04 and ZH04 showed strong activity against these three cell lines growth. Further research is undergoing.
