The p53 gene is one of the most common targets for genetic abnormalities in human tumors. Restoring wild - type p53 gene (wt-p53) into cancer cells which have p53 deletion is a strategy in cancer gene therapy. In order to explore the feasibility of this hypothesis, we selected a gastric cancer cell line BGC823 which was confirmed having deletion of chromosome 17pl3 and decreased expression level of p53 mRNA . We transfected construct pC53SN3 containing wt - p53 into BGC823 cell line with lipofectin mediated gene transferration, and G418 resistant colonies were characterized by using analysis of PCR, Southern blot hybridization, Northern blot hybridization and Western blot hybridization. These data showed that exogenous wt-p53 had successfully transferred into BGC823 cells and obtained high expression. The cell growth rates in regular medium and soft agar were inhibited from 30 to 40 percent in the BGC823 cells transfected with wt - p53. The tumorigenicity in nude mice showed that one of four mice failed to form tumor and three of them delayed to form tumor from 7 to 14 days comparing with monk and parent BGC823 cells. These results suggested that exogenous wt -p53 could suppress the growth ability and tumorigenicity of human gastric cancer cells. The method of using lipofectin mediated wt-p53 gene transfection may have a potentially therapeutic effect on human gastric cancer.

Objective To investigate the effects of 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT) on apoptosis of cultured human cytotrophoblast cells and its possible mechanism involved in pathogenesis of pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome.Methods Human cytotrophoblast cells from three term pregnancy(37-39 weeks) women were cultured and divided into four groups: normal control group,5-HT groups(0.1,1 and 10 ?mol?L~(-1)).The cells were cultivated for 3,6,12 and 24 h,respectively.Apoptotic index was measured by TdT-mediated biotinyated-dUTP nick end labeling(TUNEL) and morphological features of apoptotic cells were observed under electron microscope.Results When cells were cultivated for 3,6,12 and 24 h,compared with the normal control group(1.21?0.97,2.30?1.24,3.89?2.32 and 7.34?5.59,respectively),apoptotic indexes of cytotrophoblast cells in(10 ?mol?L~(-1)) 5-HT group were significantly increased(8.40?2.48,17.82?5.43,29.53?7.41,(45.56?)12.10,respectively)(P0.05).The significant morphological changes of apoptotic cytotrophoblast cells in various groups were found under electron microscope.Apoptotic cytotrophoblast cells were obviously compact and the chromatins were formed as mass and apoptotic bodies were also found under electron microscope.Conclusion 5-HT can promote the apoptosis of human cytotrophoblast cells and its mechanism may be correlated with pregnancy induced-hypertension syndrome.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the sedative and analgesic effects and safty of fentanyl-propofol and midazolam-propofol by intravenous injection in gastroscopy for aged-patients.METHODS:128aged-patients were randomly divided into3groups:fentanyl-propofol group(groupⅠ),midazolam-propofol group(groupⅡ)and ordinary gastroscopy group(groupⅢ).The effects of sedation and analgesia and the variation of SBP,HR and SDNN were observed.RESULTS:Patients in groupⅠandⅡfelt much less discomfortable than those in groupⅢ(P

An isocratic high-performance liquid-chromatographic method is-described for the simultaneously determining carbamazepine and its biologically active metabolite, carbamazepine-10, 11-epoxide. Serum samples containing an internal standard (10-methoxycarba-mazepine) are extracted with dichlor-methane and 4 mol ? L-1 sodium hydroxide. The organic extract are evaporated at ambient temperature under a stream of nitrogen. The residues are reconstituted in mobile phase and injected on to a re-versed-phase C18 Column (150?4. 6mm I. D). The mobile phase consists of ace-tontrile/methanol/water (50/210/260 by vol) . The UV detector is operated at 214nm. The elution times of all com-pounds are within 7 min.The least detectable concentrations of carbamazepine and carbamazepine-10, 11-epoxide are 0. 08mg ? L-1 and 0.1mg ? L-1, respectively. The average absolute recovery for carbamazepine is 96.0% and for carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide is 97.3%. Within-run CV is 3. 3%~5.7%. and between-run CV is 4.3%~9.0%. The standard curve is linear at least within 40mg ? L-1 for carbamazepine and within 20mg ? L-1 for carbamazepine-10, 11-epoxide.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for the timely and accurate judgment of drug fever induced by Piperacillin sodi-um and tazobactam sodium for injection and rational drug use in the clinic. METHODS:The medication,clinical manifestations, laboratory examination results and the physician treatment of 30 inpatients with drug fever induced by Piperacillin sodium and tazo-bactam sodium for injection from Sept. 2013 to Sept. 2014 were analyzed retrospectively and statistically. RESULTS:Most of the drug fever induced by Piperacillin sodium and tazobactam sodium for injection occurred in continuous 7 to 14 d medication,and the cumulative dosages were between 1.3 to 2.7 g/kg;73.3% of the 30 patients had fever during the intravenous drip,with body temperature mainly≥38.5 ℃;the elevation of eosinophil and slightly increase of serum C-reactive protein (CRP) and blood cell sedimentation rate (ESR) could be used as observation indexes of drug fever,but the leucocyte reduce could’t be suitable;the body temperature dropped to normal within 24 to 48 hours after stopped using it. CONCLUSIONS:The drug fever induced by Piperacillin sodium and tazobactam sodium for injection has no correlation with the patients’gender or age,and no special diagnos-tic criteria. But it has certain correlation with duration of medication,cumulative days and dosages and it can be used as reference of judgment with the combination of hematological examination index. Clinicians should improve the understanding and attention about drug fever to stop using suspicious drug in time.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects of atorvastatin combined with allopurinol on blood lipid and blood uric acid in patients with hyperlipidemia and hyperuricemia. METHODS:90 patients with hyperlipidemia and hyperuricemia were randomly di-vided into group A,group B and group C. Group A was orally given 0.1 g Allopurinol tablet,once a day+30 mg Atorvastatin calci-um tablet,once a day. Group B was given Atorvastatin calcium tablet(the same dose with group A). Group C was given Allopuri-nol tablet (the same dose with group A). The treatment course for all groups was 4 weeks. TG,TC,LDL,HDL,UA,BUN, ALT and CK before and after treatment,and incidence of adverse reactions in all groups were observed. RESULTS:After treat-ment,TG,TC and LDL in all groups were significantly lower than before,group A and B were lower than group C,the differenc-es were statistically significant (P<0.05);UA in all groups was significantly lower than before,group A and B were lower than group C,group A was lower than group B,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05);ALT in group A and B,CK in all groups and BUN levels in group A and group C were significantly higher than before,CK in group A and group B higher than group C,group A was higher than group B,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). And there was no significant dif-ference in the incidence of adverse reactions among all groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Atorvastatin combined with allopurinol can significantly reduce the blood lipid and blood uric acid levels of patients,with good safety.

Objective:To establish the determination method for total flavonoids in Cyperus rotundus and investigate the total fla-vonoids content in Cyperus rotundus from different habitats. Methods:Total flavonoids in Cyperus rotundus from different habitats were detected by ultraviolet spectrophotometry with rutin as the standard substance. Results:The absorbance of rutin had a good linear cor-relation with the concentration within the range of 0.064 3-0.642 6 mg·ml-1(r =0.999 1). The average recovery was 99.74%(RSD=2. 16%,n=6). The order of total flavonoids content in Cyperus rotundus from different habitats was Henan province >Sichuan province> Guangdong province >Anhui province > Halnan province >Shandong province. Conclusion:The method is easy and ac-curate, which can be applied in the quality control of Cyperus rotundus. The total flavonoids content in Cyperus rotundus from Henan province is the highest.
