In this study, a literature review was adopted to specify terminology of biosimilars and demonstrate the basic characteristic of biologics and relevant research and development ( R&D) procedures. The regulatory frame-work of the European Medicines Agency ( EMA ) guidelines on biosimilars was introduced. Explicitly, regulatory guidelines and scientific principles, regarding biosimilarity, safety and immunogenicity, extrapolation, labels and names, data protection, were systematically introduced, as well as interchangeability and pharmacovigilance, respec-tively. The purpose of the study is to provide regulatory references for Chinese legislators and recommendations on the R&D of biosimilars in the biopharmaceutical industry.

Objective: To investigate the frequency of microsatellite instability (MSI) and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in thymoma and its relationship with clinicopathological parameters. Methods: We selected 5 microsatellite polymorphism markers and extracted DNA from 28 specimens of paired thymomas/normal tissues. MSI and LOH in the specimens of thymomas and relevant pericancerous tissues were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by 6% polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) with silver staining. SP immunohistochemical method was used to assess the expressions of epithelial growth factor receptor (EGFR), p53, Bcl-2, and Ki-67 proteins in thymoma. Results: MSI or LOH was detected in 11 out of 28 thymoma tissues. The frequency of MSI was 21.4% (6/28), 10.7% (3/28), 14.3% (4/28), 10.7% (3/ 28), and 0% (0/28) at loci of D6S1708, TP53, DM, D11S988, and D8S136. LOH at D6S1708 (5/6) was a common genetic alteration. DM had only MSI alteration and D11S988 had only LOH alteration. There was no significant association between MSI and LOH with age, sex, with or without myasthenia gravis (MG), histological classification, clinical staging, and immunohistochemical staining (EGFR, p53, Bcl-2, and Ki-67 proteins) (P > 0.05). Conclusion: D6S1708, TP53, DM, and D11S988 are sensitive loci for studying microsatellite DNA imbalance in thymoma. Microsatellite DNA imbalance may play a certain role in occurrence and develoyment of thymoma, and the relationship between MSI or LOH and clinicopathological features of thymoma needs further investigation.

Primary liver cancer is a common malignant tumor in the digestive system.Most patients are in the advanced stage when a con-firmed diagnosis has been made,and prognosis is often unfavorable.Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)has unique advantages in the pre-vention and treatment of primary liver cancer.This article briefly introduces the etiology and pathogenesis of primary liver cancer,as well as syndrome differentiation and treatment of liver cancer with TCM,and summarizes the advances in multimodality therapies including TCM combined with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization,radical surgery for liver cancer,chemoradiotherapy,and molecular-targeted thera-py,in order to provide a reference for the clinical treatment and improvement in the prognosis of primary liver cancer.

Objective To explore the first-aid treatments and nursing measures of children with Adams-Stokes syndrome.Methods Totally 6 data of patients with Adams-Stokes syndrome who was successfully rescued were analyzed and discussed.Results The main cause of Adams-Stokes syndrome were Severe ventricular tachycardia.The third degree atrioventricular block,Severe myocarditis,Dilated cardiomyopathy,the common inducing factors of Adams-Stokes syndrome were Hypokalemia,psychological factors,overeating,constipation.Conclusion The premise of the successful rescue on Adams-Stokes syndrome children are regulated observation、knowing the patient' s condition well,the medicine and goods for first-aid treatment all ready,and timely finding,correct estimate,giving emergency treatments timely,appropriate nursing are the keys of its successful rescue.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the slow acetylator genotype induced by the genetic polymorphism of N acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) gene and the early onset Parkinson disease. Methods Polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR RFLP) method was used and three mutant alleles M1, M2 and M3 of NAT2 were studied in 126 patients with idiopathic early onset Parkinson disease and 122 age matched randomly selected controls. Results The frequencies of alleles M1, M2 and M3 of NAT2 in patients were 8 7%,26 6% and 13 1%,respectively,however,there were 2 9%,19 7% and 14 8% in controls, respectively The difference in frequency of allele M1 was statistically significant( P =0 005) The frequency of slow acetylator genotype was higher in patients (23 0%) than in controls (10 7%), showing an OR of 2 507( P =0 009). Conclusion Our study suggests that the slow acetylator genotype of N acetyltransferase 2 might be associated with the occurrence of the idiopathic early onset Parkinson′s disease

Objective To investigate the effectiveness, dose-effect and time-effect relationships for inhibiting neointimal proliferation by 103 Pd radioactive stent, and the safety of the radioactive stent. Methods By angiogaphic, morphometric and histopathologic analysis, we compared 1?000 ?Ci, 500 ?Ci and 100 ?Ci 103 Pd stents with non-radioactive stents on 5 weeks and 12 weeks after stenting in a micro-porcine coronary model of restenosis. Results The neointimal areas of 500 ?Ci and 100 ?Ci 103 Pd stents were significantly smaller than control stents. 1?000 ?Ci stents and control stents had similar neointimal areas. The neointimal areas of 500 ?Ci stents were significantly smaller than 100 ?Ci stents. Compared with control stents, 500 ?Ci stents reduced the neointimal areas by 49% and 50% respectively on 5 weeks and 12 weeks after stenting. Compared with 5 weeks after stenting, the effect of inhibiting neointimal proliferation by 100 ?Ci stents was reduced by 56% (32% vs 14%) on 12 weeks. The neointimal areas on both edge of 100 ?Ci stents were significantly larger than control stents. The neointimal areas on both edge of 1?000 ?Ci stents and 500 ?Ci stents were similar with control stents. No evident radiation damage had been found in the experimental animals who had 103 Pd stent. Conclusion There may be an effective dose window for 103 Pd radioactive stent in inhibiting neointimal proliferation. The effect of inhibiting neointimal proliferation was dose dependent. 103 Pd radioactive stent with appropriate activities may effectively, persistently inhibit neointimal proliferation with no adverse radiation sequelae. These results suggest that 103 Pd radioactive stent prevent restenosis. These data may be useful in predicting safe and effective activity for 103 Pd radioactive stent.
