Objective To select the suitable macroporous adsorption resins for enrichment and purifi-cation ferulic acid from Angelica sinensis so as to improve the product quality. Methods Macroporous ad-sorption resins were used to study the adsorption and desorption characteristics of ferulic acid. At the same time HPLC was used in detection. Results The best resin DA201 was chosen and the optimum parameters were obtained. The content of ferulic acid was increased from 0. 15% in the raw material to 25.1%. Con-clusion The material has a low cost and the operation is easy. The adsorption resins can be used again,which has a good applied foreground.

Objective To evaluate the imaging features of acute necrotizing encephalopathy caused by children A H1N1 influenza.Methods CT and MRI brain imaging data of three children acute necrotizing encephalopathy caused by A H1N1 influenza virus and proved by clinical and laboratory investigation were analyzed.All the three children got CT and MRI scan because of coma while in hospital.Results All cases represented multifocal damage,and some were symmetrical.Bilateral thalamencephalons were involved in the all cases.Bilateral grey and white matters of frontal lobe,temporal lobe,parietal lobe and occipital lobe,and hippocampi,putamina,external capsule,brain stem,bilateral cerebellum,could be seen multifocal damage,and some were symmetrical.All the cases showed brain swelling in varying degrees.These region presented low density in CT,hypointensity on T1 weighted series and hyperintensity on T2 weighted series and FLAIR series in MRI.Conclusion The imaging features of acute necrotizing encephalopathy caused by children A H1N1 influenza represented multifocal and symmetrical damage and brain swelling.It may be characteristic that bilateral thalamencephaloas were involved.The patient was serious,and fatality rate was high.So we should pay much attention to acute necrotizing encephalopathy caused by children A H1 N1 influenza.

Objective To study the effects of exercise on blood pressure (BP) and aorta gaseous molecules of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR),so as to explore the role of gaseous molecules in exercise-induced changes of hypertension.Methods Sixteen male SHR were randomly divided into the SHR control (SC) group and SHR training (ST) group.Eight healthy male Wistar rats were used as normal control (WC) group.All the rats were fed normal foodstuff.The ST group was subject to 90-minute moderate swimming exercise once daily,6 times a week,for a total of 8 weeks,while the SC and WC groups were give no special intervention.The blood pressure and the contents of aorta NO,CO and H2S were examined before and at the end of the 4th,5th and 8th weeks of the exercise.Results After 8-week,a within-group comparison showed that the systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic BP (DBP) was significantly elevated in SC group as compared with the baseline BP[(198.07 ± 7.27) vs (159.91 ±6.48) mmHgin SBP,(132.75 ±11.93) vs (103.75 ±3.69) mmHg in BBP](P＜0.05),while that the BP remained without significant changes in the ST group [(164.85 ± 3.73) mmHg for SBP and (103.20 ± 7.63)mmHg for DBP] after 8-week of exercise.A between-group comparison showed that BP values measured at the end of 4th,5th and 8th weeks post-exercise in the ST group were significantly lower than those in the SC group (P ＜ 0.05).It was also shown that,at the end of 8th week post-intervention,the levels of aorta NOS,NO,HO,CO,CSE and H2 S of SC group was significantly lower than those of the WC group (P ＜ 0.05),and the levels of NOS,HO,CSE in the ST group were significantly lower than those in the WC group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Moderate exercise can help relieve hypertension in SHR,and the gaseous molecules might synergistically mediate the effect of exercise in lowering the BP.

Objective To explore and compare the clinical efficacy of levetiracetam tablets and compound sodium valproate sustained release tablets in the treatment of children and adolescents with epilepsy.Methods From April 2017 to April 2018,80 children and adolescents with epilepsy treated in Chaonan Minsheng Hospital of Shantou were selected as study objects,and they were randomly divided into two groups by drawing lots,with 40 cases in each group.The observation group was given levetiracetam tablets,and the control group was treated with valproate.The improvement of EEG after therapy,the total effective rate,and the incidence of adverse reactions were observed and evaluated.Results The EEG improvement rates after treatment for 6 months in the observation group and control group were 41.17％,45.71％,respectively,the difference was not statistically significant(x2 =0.508,P ＞0.05).The EEG improvement rates after treatment for 9 months in the observation group and control group were 70.58％,74.28％,respectively,the difference was not statistically significant (x2 =0.225,P ＞ 0.05).The total effective rate in the observation group was 92.50％,which was 95.00％ in the control group,the difference was not statistically significant between the two groups (x2 =0.354,P ＞ 0.05).However,the incidence rate of adverse reactions of the observation group(22.50％) was significantly lower than that of the control group(45.00％)(x2 =6.864,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Both levetiracetam tablets and compound sodium valproate sustained release tablets have appreciable efficacy and safety in the treatment of epilepsy in children and adolescents,but levetiracetam therapy has less adverse reactions,which deserves further promotion in monotherapy of epilepsy in children and adolescents.

Breast cancer (BC) is most commonly diagnosed worldwide. Liquiritigenin is a flavonoid found in various species of the Glycyrrhiza genus, showing anti–tumor activity. This article was to explore the influences of liquiritigenin on the biological behaviors of BC cells and its underlying mechanism. BC cells were treated with liquiritigenin alone or transfected with oe-HSP90 before liquiritigenin treatment. RT-qPCR and Western blotting were employed to examine the levels of HSP90, Snail, E-cadherin, HSC70, and LAMP-2A. Cell viability, proliferation, migration, and invasion were evaluated by performing MTT, colony formation, scratch, and Transwell assays, respectively. Liquiritigenin treatment reduced HSP90 and Snail levels and enhanced E-cadherin expression as well as inhibiting the proliferation, migration, and invasion of BC cells. Moreover, liquiritigenin treatment decreased the expression of HSC70 and LAMP-2A, proteins related to chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA). HSP90 overexpression promoted the CMA, invasion, and migration of BC cells under liquiritigenin treatment. Liquiritigenin inhibits HSP90-mediated CMA, thereby suppressing BC cell growth.

Objective: To explore the molecular mechanism of miR-17-5p regulating the proliferation and invasion of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells by regulating the expression of breast cancer metastasis suppressor 1 like (BRMS1-like or BRMS1L) gene. Methods:A total of 40 cases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues and corresponding paracancerous tissues resected from nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients, who were admitted to the General Hospital of Pingdingshan Shenma Medical Group during January 2014 to December 2017, were included in this study; in addition, nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell lines CNE 2, HONE 1, C666-1 and nasopharyngeal immortalized epithelial cell line NP69 were also collected for this study. The expression of miR-17-5p in nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues and cell lines was detected by qPCR. The targeted relationship between BRMS1L and miR-17-5p was predicted by the StarBase and verified by the Dual luciferase reporter gene assay. Effects of transfection of miR-17-5p mimics and inhibitors on the expression of BRMS1Lin CNE2 cells were detected by WB assay. CCK-8, Transwell and Flow cytometry were used to detect the effects of miR-17-5p/BRMS1L axis on the proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis of CNE 2 cells. Results: miR-17-5p was highly expressed in nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues and cell lines (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Knockdown of miR-17-5p significantly inhibited proliferation, invasion and migration of CNE2 cells but promoted apoptosis (P<0.05 or P<0.01); miR-17-5p targeted BRMS1Land down-regulated its expression. Over-expression of BRMS1Lsignificantly inhibited the proliferation, invasion and migration of CNE2 cells but promoted apoptosis (all P<0.01); while simultaneous over-expression of miR-17-5p and BRMS1L reversed the above effects (all P<0.01). Conclusion: miR-17-5p promoted proliferation, invasion, migration and inhibited apoptosis of CNE 2 cells by down-regulating the expression of BRMS1L.
