Medicine is a practical science which needs comprehensive analysis.The old fashion of disease treatment model divided by different professions or departments was gradually unable to meet the needs of the clinical diagnosis and treatment,and the corresponding medical education pattern was very limited.As the development of multi disciplinary treatment (MDT) focused on a certain disease or organ,medical teaching mode also changed.Since our hospital used MDT as the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP),teaching model has been reformed by launching the joint multidisciplinary teaching.After that,the graduate students and advanced students from relevant departments have greatly improved their diagnosis and treatment skills.

Objective To explore the expression of TK1 in breast carcinoma and discuss its significance of carcinogenesis and progression in breast carcinoma and its relationship with Ki67. Method Using immunohistochemistry methods of SABC and S-P to detect the expression of TK1 and Ki67 in 89 cases of breast carcinoma tissue. Results Positive rate of TK1 in the breast carcinoma was 69.7% (62/89), and the expression of TK1 was significantly associated with lymph node metastasis, TNM stage and histological grade (P < 0.05), but it was not significantly correlated with age (P > 0.05). The expression of TK1 was not significantly correlated with Ki67 in the breast carcinoma (P>0.05). Conclusions Expression of TK1 is associated with carcinogenesis and progression, and it is a poor prognostic marker of breast carcinoma. TK1 and Ki67 are the indicators of cellular growth independently.

Objective In order to investigate the role of Gap Junction (GJ) in the generation and development of epilepsy,we examined the expression of connexin43 (Cx43)and Cx32 in the epileptogenic lesions and surrounding brain tissues of the patients with refractory temporal epilepsy.Methods Thirty intractable epilepsy patients were performed the resection of epileptogenic lesions under the ECC monitor.The expression of Cx43 and Cx32 in the epileptogenic lesions and the surrounding brain tissues of the patients were examined by immunohistochemical staining(the two step method).The data were statistically analyzed.Results The results from the immunohistochemistry staining showed that Cx43 and Cx32 were expressed in the epileptogenic lesions and the surrounding brain tissues.The expression of Cx43 in the epileptogenic lesions was increased obviously in comparison with the surrounding brain tissues ( U =4.066,P ＜ 0.001 ).There was no significant difference in the expression of Cx32 between the epileptogenic lesions and the surrounding brain tissues ( U =1.866,P ＞ 0.05 )Conclusion The expression of Cx43 in the epileptogenic focus is increased in comparison with that in the surrounding brain tissues,indicating that GJ plays an important role in the generation and development of epilepsy.There is no significant difference in the expression of Cx32 between the epileptogenic lesions and the surrounding brain tissues,which may be related to the apoptosis of the neurons after multiple seizure attacks.

A quantitative analysis method of multi-components with a single marker (QAMS) for simultaneous determination of six marker compounds (one from phenolic acids and five from phthalides) in Chuanxiong Rhizoma was established by applying HPLC and using butylidenephthalide as the internal reference substance. And also the feasibility and accuracy of the established method for quality evaluation and application of Chuanxiong Rhizoma were investigated and validated. The analysis was performed with the mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile - 0.2% aqueous formic acid. The flow rate was 1.0 mL . min-1 and the column temperature was maintained at 30 °C. The detection wavelengths were set at 252 nm (for ferulic acid, Z-ligustilide, and butylidenephthalide) and 266 nm (for senkyunolide I, senkyunolide A, and coniferyl ferulate), separately, and 20 µL was injected for analysis with gradient elution. The results showed that there were no significant differences observed between the HPLC-QAMS method and the external standard method (RSD <5%). The relative correction factors were credible (RSD < 5%) in changed chromatographic conditions. The established HPLC-QAMS method can be accurately used for simultaneously evaluating and controlling the quality of Chuanxiong Rhizoma with multi-components.

Objective To set up the methods of establishing rat primary benign prostatic hyperplasic glandular epithelial cell line.Methods Male spontaneously hypertensive rats were raised to 29 weeks,and then evaluated the situation of BPH with HE staining.The prostate tissue from ventral prostate lobe was aseptically removed,dissected,minced,and then dissociated in collagenase type Ⅰ.Isolated cells were collected,seeded in WAJC-404 and PrEGM medium separately,then cultured and passaged.Specificity of primitive cultured prostatic epithelial cells was identified by cell immunochemistry with CK8/18,and the cell growth curves were drawn.Then the situation of growth of the two prostatic hyperplasic glandular epithelial cell lines were analysed and compared.Results The prostatic hyperplasic glandular epithelial cell lines of the spontaneously hypertensive rats in WAJC-404 and PrEGM medium were successfully primarily cultured,purified and passaged in vitro.Cell immunochemistry proved that the cell lines specifically express cytokeratin 8/18.Cell growth curve showed that prostatic epithelial cells in PrEGM,compared with prostatic epithelial cells in WAJC-404,possessed better cell morphology,more exuberant cell vitality,faster growth rate to enter the logarithmic growth period(4 d vs.7 d)and higher peak of cell growth curve(15.3× 104/ml vs.12.8×104/ml).Conclusions Rat primary benign prostatic hyperplasic glandular epithelial cell line can be established conventionally in vitro.PrEGM medium is more suitable for primary culture of the rat benign prostatic hyperplasic glandular epithelial cell line than WAJC-404 medium.

AIM:To compare 2 environments , the subrenal capsule and oral submucosa , for producing well-formed teeth from mouse tooth germs and for exploring the ideal environment for tooth regeneration .METHODS: Two groups were set up .Group A was transplanted with the mouse embronic day ( ED) 14.5 first mandibular molar tooth germs into the subrenal capsule , while group B was transplanted with the ED 14.5 first mandibular molar tooth germs into the oral submucosa.After 3 weeks and 4 weeks, the host mice were sacrificed, and the transplanted explants were evaluated with morphologic observation , histological structures , hardness and elastictic modulus tests , and chemical compositions .RE-SULTS:(1) The explants isolated from both environments showed the tooth-like structures, but as to the group B, the crown was smaller, and the shape of the cusps was not significant .(2) HE staining showed that the dentin and enamel in group A were thicker than those in group B in which the ameloblasts and odontoblasts were differentiated not very well .(3) In the test of enamel hardness , only the hardness of 4 weeks in group B was lower than normal mouse tooth .In the test of enamel modulus , the elastic modulus of enamel in 3 weeks of group A was slightly lower than normal mouse tooth , but the difference was not significant .The elastic modulus of enamel in 4 weeks of group A and group B was significantly lower than normal mouse tooth and 3 weeks of group B .The hardness and elastic modulus of dentin in 3 groups was not significant . (4) Raman spectroscopy showed 2 groups grew in harmony in general , they all had the largest peak in the point of 961 cm-1 , but the 3 weeks of group B had an obvious peak in the point of 2 947 cm-1 .CONCLUSION:For the development of ED14.5 tooth germs, we obtain almost the whole tooth in subrenal capsule transplantation after 3 or 4 weeks.The buccal submucosa environment still has a certain influence on the tooth germ development , although there are some differences about the tooth development between this environment and subrenal capsule environment .

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical efficacy of heat-sensitivepoint Yaoyangguan(GV3)moxibustion for sciatica and preliminarily explore the mechanism of its action.MethodOne hundred and twelve sciatica patients were randomly allocated to heat-sensitive point Yaoyangguan moxibustion (observation), non-heat-sensitive point Yaoyangguan suspended moxibustion (control) and medication groups. The observation group received heat-sensitive point Yaoyangguan moxibustion; the control group, non-heat-sensitive point Yaoyangguan suspended moxibustion; the medication group, oral administration of Yaobitong capsules. The clinical symptoms were scored, the Pain Rating Index (PRI), the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and the Present Pain Intensity (PPI) scores were counted and serum IL-8 content was measured in the three groups beforeand after 15 days of treatment.ResultAfter 15 days of treatment, all the three treatments had a certain therapeutic effect on sciatica. The therapeutic effect was bestin the observation group (P<0.05). The PRI, VAS and PPI scores and serum IL-8 contentdecreased in all the three groups compared with before treatment (P<0.05) and were lower in the observation group than in the control and medication groups (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the control and medication groups (P>0.05).ConclusionHeat-sensitive point Yaoyangguan moxibustion has a better therapeutic effect than non-heat-sensitive point Yaoyangguan suspended moxibustion and oral administration of Yaobitong capsules. This method is an ideal treatment for sciatica. The mechanism may be related to a posttreatment decrease in inflammatory factors in the diseased region.

Objective To investigate the effects of water extract of Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch.(GUWE) on the activation of RAW264.7 cells and the possible mechanism.Methods RAW264.7 cells were treated with GUWE containing different concentrations of polysaccharide (10, 50, 100, 500 μg/ml).Viability of these cells was analyzed by MTT assay.Phagocytic activity and surface molecules expressed on these cells were detected by flow cytometry.Levels of cytokines were analyzed by ELISA.Western blot assay was performed to analyze the activation of key molecules in TLR4 signaling pathway.Results GUWE at the concentration of 500 μg/ml significantly decreased the viability of RAW264.7 cells, but significantly increased the viability of RAW264.7 cells at concentrations of 50 μg/ml and 100 μg/ml.GUWE significantly enhanced the phagocytic activity of RAW264.7 cells as well as the expression of cytokines and costimulatory molecules in a dose-dependent manner.Further analysis indicated that the activation of RAW264.7 cells induced by GUWE was suppressed by TLR4 inhibitor.Moreover, GUWE enhanced the phosphorylation of NF-kB p65 and TLR4 downstream mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) including p38, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK).Conclusion This study indicates that GUWE promotes the activation of RAW264.7 cells through TLR4 signaling pathway.

OBJECTIVETo observe the clinical effectiveness of warm needling combined with element calcium on postmenopausal osteoporosis, and to explore its action mechanism.

METHODSEighty-five postmenopausal patients were randomly divided into an observation group (43 cases) and a control group (42 cases). Both the two groups were treated with oral administration of caltrate-D tablet, 600 mg per day, once a day before sleep for one year. Patients in the observation group were treated with warm needling at Dazhu (BL 11), Shenshu (BL 23), Xuan-zhong (GB 39), once a day; 30 days of treatment were taken as a course, and totally 4 courses were given with an interval of 60 days between courses. The bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar vertebra and hip joint, and the level of serum bone gla protein (S-BGP) and hydroxyproline/creatinine (Hyp/Cr) were observed before and after treatment in the two groups.

RESULTS(1)After treatment, the BMD in the observation group was significantly increased [lumbar vertebra (0. 811±0. 024) g/cm2 vs (0. 892±0.019) g/cm2, femoral neck (0. 512±0.014) g/cm2 vs (0. 554±0. 015) g/cm2, femoral trochanter (0. 716±0. 028) g/cm2 vs (0.769±0.026) g/cm2, Ward's trigonum (0. 590±0. 013) g/cm2 vs (0. 660±0. 017) g/cm2, all P<0. 05)]; the improvement in the observation group was more significant than that in the control group (all P<0. 05). (2)After treatment, the index of bone metabolism in the control group was increased, and the serum S-BGP, the Hyp/Cr in the control group were higher than those in the observation group (both P<0. 05).

CONCLUSIONThe treatment of warm needling combined with element calcium on postmenopausal osteoporosis is significant, which is likely to be achieved by reducing the bone metabolism of postmenopausal patients.
