B-Raf kinase (BRAF) gene is a driver mutation,and is an effective target in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Studies have shown that BRAF inhibitors are effective for treatment of NSCLC with BRAF mutant.It is important to understand the clinicopathologic features and the research progress of BRAF inhibitors for the individual treatment of NSCLC.

Epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs)and anti-angio-genic drugs have individually demonstrated clinical benefit in the treatment of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Recent studies demonstrate that the combination of anti-EGFR and anti-angiogene-sis can more significantly enhance clinical benefit,and even can remit EGFR-TKIs resistance in the treatment of advanced NSCLC.According to the different kinds of anti-angiogenesis drugs,recent clinical studies mainly include the combination of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor monoclonal antibody bevacizumab plus EGFR-TKIs and multi-targeted receptor anti-angiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitor plus EGFR-TKIs,and the for-mer results show a more significant improvement in terms of safety and efficacy in the treatment of advanced NSCLC.Therefore,the combination of bevacizumab plus EGFR-TKIs can be used as a new treatment standard in the treatment of some patients with NSCLC.

Immunotherapy is revolutionizing the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) monoclonal antibodies have recently led to significant and durable improvements in the clinical outcome of NSCLC,and the anti-PD-1 antibody has been approved to use in first-line and second-line treatment of NSCLC.However,there are still many problems to be solved.The role of PD-L1 as a predictive biomarker remains unclear.Combination treatment models are being explored.This review summarizes the clinical efficacy,drug adverse reaction,combined treatment,and potential immune biomarkers of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody research progress in the treatment of NSCLC.

Objective To investigate the features,prevention and treatment of complications of ultrasound-guided hepatic puncture biopsy.Methods One hundred and seventy-five cases underwent ultrasound-guided hepatic puncture biopsy were retrospectively analyzed.Results The incidence of complications was 16 cases (9.1%),including 5 cases with vasovagal episodes(2.9%),4 cases with ache which needed medicine treatment (2.2%),3 cases with hemorrhage in liver capsule(1.7%),3 cases with hypoglycemia(1.7%),1 case with serve hemorrhage in abdominal cavity(0.6%).Hemorrhage limited in liver capsule,vasovagal episodes,hypoglycemia and ache were relieved with corresponding treatments.One case with hemorrhage in abdominal cavity was handled with percutaneous microwave ablation therapy guided by contrast-enhanced ultrasound.Conclusions Ultrasound-guided hepatic puncture biopsy has good value and low complication.The most severe complication is hemorrhage,which can be handled with percutaneous microwave ablation therapy guided by contrast-enhanced ultrasound.

Objective To study the characteristics of language function development and establish the reference standards in children of4~6 years old. Methods 616 hearing normal children at the age of 3~7 from 13 provinces in China were assessed with Language FunctionEvaluation for Hearing-impaired Children. 583 usable data were analyzed via SPSS 17.0. Results The older the children were, the highertheir scores of language function evaluation were (P<0.001). The differences between boys and girls on coordination function and relaxationfunction were significant (P<0.01). The girls were better than the boys. The reference standards of children of 4~6 years old were set downbased on the regression analysis. Conclusion There are some laws on children's language function development. The reference standards ofchildren by 4~6 years old has been developed.

Objective:To prepare anti-human c-kit monoclonal antibody(McAb) by genetic immunization in spleen,and to determine practicability of these means to produce McAbs based on the biological activity of anti-human c-kit antibody.Methods:Recombinant plasmid pcDNA3.1/c-kit extracellular domain was constructed by molecular cloning techniques,and was used to immunize BALB/c mice in spleen directly to prepare mAb against human c-kit by routine hybridoma technique.FASC、fluorescence microscope and Western blot were utilized to identify the prepared antibody.Results:c-kit extracellular region was cloned and insert pcDNA3.1 plasmid successfully.Three hybridoma cell lines 6C4、2C5 and 5D5 that secrete anti-human c-kit McAbs were obtained after using intra-spleen immunization with a DNA vaccine.The isotypes of these three antibodies were all IgM,and the epitopes were different with each other.Conclusion:The method of genetic immunization into spleen can be used to prepare anti-human c-kit monoclonal antibodies.

Leucine-rich alpha-2 glycoprotein 1 (LRG1) is a highly conserved member of the family of leucine-rich repeat (LRR) proteins. LRG1 has been reported to be closely related to the occurrence and development of malignant tumors. Recent studies have shown that LRG1 is abnormally expressed in many digestive system tumors, including esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, liver cancer, pancreatic cancer, and colorectal cancer. LRG1 has also been reported to be closely related to tumor cell proliferation, invasion, migration, apoptosis, and poor prognosis. This paper reviews the research progress of LRG1 in many digestive system tumors, providing new ideas for LRG1-based anti-tumor treatment.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the cardiotonic effect of active compoud from raw and processing aconite roots used rats with acute heart failure (AHF) as the experimental animals.

METHODIsolated toad cordis was employed to observe the cardiotonic effect and the AHF models were reproduced in rats by pentobarbital sodium to observe the hemodynamics marker acute heart failure, and elucidate cardiotonic effect.

RESULTThe DDA(s) and MDA-P improved contractile force obviously on isolated toad cordis (P < 0.05). And the most amplification of contractile force was 91.107% +/- 87.663% (P < 0.01). But the effect on isolated heart rates was not significant. The change of LVSP, +/- dp/dt(max), LVEDP were significant (P < 0.01, P < 0.001), and the HR increased evidently by adminstrate processing aconite roots active compounds after the agent in 5 min.

CONCLUSIONThere are cardiotonic effect on isolated toad cordis in rats with active compounds from raw and processing aconite roots.

Objective To observe the effects of different levels of sodium arsenite ( NaAsO2) on mRNA expression of pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) and apoptosis-related factors in PC12 cells ( rat neuron properties pheochromocytoma). Methods PC12 cells were treated with different levels of NaAsO2 [0 (control group), 2, 5, 10 μmol/L] for 24 hours. The mRNA expression of PEDF and apoptosis-related factors (Bax, Bcl-2) were detected by real-time quantitative PCR. Results There were significant differences in the mRNA expressions of PEDF between the 4 groups (F=102.28, P<0.05), the mRNA expressions of PEDF in the group of 2, 5, 10μmol/L (0.70 ± 0.07, 0.33 ± 0.04, 0.23 ± 0.10) was lower than that of control group (1.15 ± 0.11, P< 0.05); there were no significant differences in the mRNA expressions of Bax between the 4 groups (0, 2, 5, 10 μmol/L groups: 0.95 ± 0.12, 0.80 ± 0.11, 0.88 ± 0.11, 1.01 ± 0.11, F= 2.01, P> 0.05); there were significant differences in the mRNA expressions of Bcl-2 between the 4 groups (F=19.87, P<0.05), the mRNA expressions of Bcl-2 in the group of 2, 5, 10 μmol/L (0.65 ± 0.03, 0.49 ± 0.04, 0.57 ± 0.09) were lower than that of control group (0.95 ± 0.11, all P<0.05);there were significant differences in the mRNA expressions of Bax/Bcl-2 between the 4 groups (F=8.352, P<0.05), the mRNA expressions of in the group of 5, 10μmol/L (1.80 ± 0.72, 1.82 ± 0.36) were higher than that of control group (1.02 ± 0.24, all P<0.05). Conclusion NaAsO2 may increase the expression of apoptosis-related factorsBax/Bcl-2 mRNA by decreasing the expression of PEDF mRNA in PC12 cells, leading to apoptosis in PC12 cells.
