The abnormal expression of gastrins and their receptors have close relationship with the occurrenceand the development of some colorectal neoplasms.The high expression of gastrins and their receptors promote colorectal neoplasms cell proliferation and inhibit apoptosis.The biological behavior is mainly rely on the abnormal expression of protein.Using differential proteomics can screen differential expression protein of high expression of gastrin-based colorectal neoplasms in the occurrence and development process,and then with the regulation of specific proteins to achieve the prevention and treatment of colorectal neoplasms purposes.

Primary and secondary prevention clinical trials have demonstrated that statins markedly reduced cardiovascular risks even in patients whose plasma level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol is lower than that of drug-treatment goal in lipid management guidelines. The reasons are as follows: The "normal" level in guidelines is not the normal level biologically, it is merely an average value in a given human group; The composition of plasma lipids is very complex; Statins have effects other than lipid modifying. Statins should be prescribed in patients without hyperlipidemia but with risk factors or coronary heart disease.

The risk of stroke increases significantly after transient ischemic attack (TIA). TIA is an independent risk factor for cerebral infarction. This article review s the advances in prediction models of stroke risk after TIA in order to conduct rapid and accurate risk assessment and stratification in patients w ith TIA and develop timely reasonable treatment strategies, thereby reducing the risk of stroke.

This research is to investigate study the flavonoids from stems of Nelumbo nucifera and the cytotoxic activities of iso- lated compounds. The constituents were separated by column chromatography,and their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic data analyses. The isolated compounds were evaluated for cytoxic activities by MTT method. Twelve compounds were isolated and identified as rhamnazin-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (1), luteolin-3', 4'-dimethylether-7-O-beta-D-glucoside (2), kaempferol-3-O-beta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1-->2)-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (3), quercetin-3,3'-di-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (4), 1, 8-dihydroxy-3,7-dimethoxyxanthone (5), isorhamnetin-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside(6) , kaempferol(7), isorhamnetin (8), quercetin(9), astragalin(10), hyperoside (11) and 1-hy- droxy-3,7,8-trimethoxyxanthone(12). All compounds were isolated from stems of this plant for the first time, and compounds 1-5 were firstly isolated from the family nelumbonaceae. Compounds 24 and 6 showed significant cytotoxic activities against BEL-7402 carcinoma cell lines at a concentration of 1 x 10(-5) mol x L(-1) with the inhibitory rate of 67.36%, 53.25%, 57.78%, 60.13% and 52.11%, respectively.

Objective To compare the osseo-induction and biodegradation performances of three types of injectable and degradable calcium phosphate cement (CPC) so as to find out a better bone substitute. Methods Three types of injectable and degradable CPC were respectively implanted into the bilateral tibias of 24 New Zealand rabbits: pure CPC (Group A), CPC added with Zinc and Strontiumions (Group B), and CPC with composite rhBMP-2 (Group C) . Their systematic and local reactions in implanted region were closely observed. The degra- dation and osseo-induction performances were compared macroscopically, microscopically and by CT scan to find out the one that could best meet clinical needs. Tissue slices were sampled and photographed four, eight and 16 weeks after operation. Five photographs were selected in each group and at each time points for computer software (Image Pro Plus 5.1) processing to calculate the percentages of bone in the images of postoperative slices. Results In Groups A and B, new bone was found to form slowly and little by little, and the ossification was not synchronous with the material degradation. In Group C, however, new bone was observed to form early and massively, and the os- sification was almost synchronous with the material degradation. In Groups A, B and C, the percentage of bone in the images of postoperative slices was (41.7?16.6)%, (31. 2?12.2)% and (71.7?21.0)% respectively. The bone percentage in CPC with composite rhBMP-2 was significantly higher than that in the other two types of CPC (P＜0.01 ). Conclusion The injectable and degradable CPC with composite rhBMP-2 is more suitable for clinical use, because it can induce early new bone formation and synchronous biodegradation.

Three infant staple food sprays were studied. Preparation A contained 17.5% cow's milk powder, preparations B and C contained 30% and 26% soybean powder respectively, preparations A and B both contained 22% cane sugar; while C was without cane sugar. Other components in these 3 sprays were mainly rice powder and a little amount of soybean oil and whole egg powder. 3 preparations were fed to 3 groups of male weaning rats for 4 weeks. As indicated by parameters such as body weights gained, FE, CE and PER, preparation C had a significantly higher value than A and B. A and B got a practically similar results. Those effects were also true in a repletion test. The BV and nitrogen balance values were similar among these 3 preparations. There was no prominent effect on serum osmotic pressure in rats fed 22% cane sugar for 4 weeks, but had a lower caloric utilization in group A and B as compared with group C

Objective To investigate the signal mechanism of protein kinase C alpha(PKC-α)participated in enhanced expression of type Ⅰ inositol 1,4,5-trisphophate receptors (IP3 RI) induced by tumor necrosis factor alpha(TNFα),in order to delineate the mechanisms of decreased glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in hepatorenal syndrome caused by TNFα.Methods The glomerular mesangial cells (GMCs)line from rats was chosen as experimental material.GMCs were divided into control (D),TNFα-2 h,TNFα-4 h,TNFα-8 h,and TNFα-24 h groups.Moreover,another two groups were sanflngol-8h (S),TNFα + Sanfingol-8h(TS)groups.The effect of TNFα on the expression of IP3RI was detected by immunocytochemical staining,Western blotting,teal time-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays.Results Immunocytochemical staining demonstrated that IP3 RI was mainly distributed in cytoplasm of GMCs.Enhanced positive staining was determined in all TNFα-treated groups,especially in TNFα-8 h group.Western blotting demonstrated that the expression of IP3RI protein was significantly higher in TNFα-4 h,TNFα-8h and TNFα-24 h groups than control group(4 h:1.82 ± 0.63 ; 8 h:2.95 ± 0.66 ; 24 h:2.48 ± 0.72 ; D:1 ±0.02 ; F =9.24,P ＜ 0.05).The expression of IP3 RI protein was the highest in TNFα-8 h and TNFα-24 h groups(P ＜0.05).No difference was found among S,TS,and control groups(S:1.39 ±0.65; TS:1.35± 0.37 ; P ＞ 0.05).Real time-PCR found the expression of IP3 RImRNA was significantly higher in all TNFα-treated groups than control group(2 h:3.35 ± 1.97; 4 h:3.16 ± 1.35; 8 h:3.70 ± 1.76; 24 h:4.49±1.70; D:1 ±0.01; F =6.167,P ＜0.05).No difference was found among all TNFα-treated groups(P ＞0.05).No difference was found among S,TS,and control groups(S:1.53 ±0.79; TS:1.32 ± 0.38 ; P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions IP3 RI was mainly distributed in cytoplasm of GMCs.TNFa could enhance the expression of IP3 RI protein and IP3 RI mRNA,which could be blocked by sanfingol,a PKCα inhibitor.It might be an important signal in the mechanisms of GFR decrease caused by TNFα in hepatorenal syndrome.

Objective Evaluate the safety and efficacy of indwelling healer tube in prevention and cure the conglutination after the surgurey of flexor tendon tenosynovitis. Methods During the year of 2001～2006, We have 38 young patients treated with indwelling of healer tube into the local or partial of the recovering muscle and sinew, then anesthetic and sodium hyaluronate were injected in the tube in certain intervals to lubicate and prevent conglutination after the operations of joint of children flexor tendon tenosynovitis. Then let the young patients do some healing training attne earlystage after surgery. Groups of patient were set up to make comparative analysis and evaluate the effectiveness of indwelling of the healer tubes according to the recovery status of the function of arthrosis and grasp after surgery. Results The result is that the rate of choiceness of 46 sinew is 89.1% in 34 cases with indwelling healer tube after the observing period from 6 months to 2 years, whereas the other group of 44 sinew in 30 cases has the rate of choiceness of 63.6%. The comparison has the significant conclusion of statistics (P<0.05). Conclusion It is convenient and safe to use indwelling healer tube to prevent the conglutination after the operation of joint the broken finger muscle and sinew of children. Therefore it is worth popularizing and promoting.
