Objective To explore the relationship between iesion location ot the frst onset acute cerebral infarction(ACI),stroke severity and post-stroke depression (PSD).Methods The lesion Iocations of ACI were observed by CT or MRI.100 patients with the first onset ACI were assessed by Hamilton Depression Scale and the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale two weeks after stroke.Results There was no significant difference in the incidence of PSD among the patients with left,right and bilateral lesions in acute stroke(23.91％,25.00％,33.33％,x2 =0.2512,P ＞0.05 ).The incidence of PSD had significant difference between the anterior-circulation and posterior-circulation infarction(33.96％,14.89％,x2 =4.8307,P ＜ 0.05 ).Stroke severity was positively correlated withthe incidence of PSD( 16.67％,31.37％,36.36％,x2 =3.9188,P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion The incidence of PSD was no significant correlation with the stroke site of patients with the first onset ACI,and the patients with anterior circulation infarction and severe neurological deficit have high incidence of PSD.

ObjectiveTo investigate the expression and relationship of pituitary tumor transforming gene (PTTG) and p53 protein in large intestinal adenoma,large intestinal carcinoma and normal large intestinal mucosa tissues.MethodsImmunohistochemistry was employed to determine the expression of PTTG and p53 protein in 50 cases with large intestinal adenoma tissues,42 cases with large intestinal carcinoma tissues and normal large intestinal mucosa tissues.The relationship of the expression of PTTG and p53 protein with the clinicopathological characteristics was analyzed.ResultsThere was no positive expression of p53 protein in normal large intestinal mucosa tissues,while the positive rate of PTTG expression was 7.14％(3/42).The positive rates of PTTG and p53 protein expression were 82.00％(41/50) and 90.00％(45/50) in large intestinal adenoma tissues,88.10％ (37/42) and 95.24％ (40/42) in large intestinal carcinoma tissues.The positive rates of PTTG and p53 protein over expression were 45.24％(19/42) and 69.05％(29/42) in large intestinal carcinoma tissues.The positive rates of PTTG and p53 protein expression in large intestinal carcinoma tissues were higher than those in large intestinal adenoma tissues and normal large intestinal mucosa tissues,the positive rates of PTTG and p53 protein expression in large intestinal adenoma tissues were higher than those in normal large intestinal mucosa tissues,and there were significant differences(P ＜ 0.05).The expression of PTTG was not correlated with p53 protein in large intestinal carcinoma tissues(P＞ 0.05 ),while the positive relationship was found between the expression of PTTG and p53 protein in large intestinal adenoma tissues (P ＜ 0.05 ).The over expression of PTTG was significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis (P ＜ 0.01 ),but the over expression of p53 protein was not correlated with lymph node metastasis(P ＞ 0.05) in large intestinal carcinoma tissues.Conclusions The expression of PTTG is significantly correlated with p53 protein in large intestinal adenoma tissues,and their co-expression may be used as markers for carcinogenesis of large intestinal adenoma tissues.The over expression of PTTG and p53protein is found in large intestinal carcinoma,and the over expression of PTTG is correlated with lymph node metastasis.The over expression of PTTG may be used as a marker for lymph node metastasis of large intestinal carcinoma.

Triptolide, a diterpenoid triepoxide from the traditional Chinese medicinal herb Tripterygium wilfordii Hook. f., is a potential treatment for autoimmune diseases as well a possible anti-tumor agent. It inhibits proliferation of coloretal cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. In this study, its ability to block progress of colitis to colon cancer, and its molecular mechanism of action are investigated. A mouse model for colitis-induced colorectal cancer was used to test the effect of triptolide on cancer progression. Treatment of mice with triptolide decreased the incidence of colon cancer formation, and increased survival rate. Moreover, triptolide decreased the incidence of tumors in nude mice inoculated with cultured colon cancer cells dose-dependently. In vitro, triptolide inhibited the proliferation, migration and colony formation of colon cancer cells. Secretion of IL6 and levels of JAK1, IL6R and phosphorylated STAT3 were all reduced by triptolide treatment. Triptolide prohibited Rac1 activity and blocked cyclin D1 and CDK4 expression, leading to G1 arrest. Triptolide interrupted the IL6R-JAK/STAT pathway that is crucial for cell proliferation, survival, and inflammation. This suggests that triptolide might be a candidate for prevention of colitis induced colon cancer because it reduces inflammation and prevents tumor formation and development.

With the deepening reform of ideological and political education, Medical Parasitology teaching needs to update the teaching concept, change the teaching ideas, as well as keep trying to combine ideological and political education with the curriculum content closely. In addition to teaching students’ basic knowledge and practical skills, teachers are needed to cultivate their moral literacy and political awareness through course teaching, so as to provide the basis for students’ subsequent adaptations to social environments and jobs. Currently, the study of ideological and political education in Medical Parasitology teaching is still in the exploratory stage. Therefore, colleges and universities need to carry out effective construction of ideological and political education in Medical Parasitology teaching, in order to achieve good teaching outcomes and provide insights into ideological and political education in teaching.
