Artemisinin is the antimalarial active ingredient, which is discovered by Chinese scientists in 1970s. The chemical structure of artemisinin is modified or altered to obtain a series of analogues to satisfy the medication requirements. According to the physicochemical properties of medicines and actual clinical necessities, the preparations of artemisinins are developed and the common preparations include tablet, suppository, injection, etc.. With the developing of technology, researchers have conducted a large number of studies on the artemisinins nanoparticles injection, transdermal drug delivery systems, mucosal drug delivery systems and etc. This article systematically collected and discussed the recent studies on the antimalarial preparations of artemisinins in line with different administration routes.

Objective:To explore the expression pattern and function of miR-126 in human colon cancer and the underlying mechanisms.
Methods:hTe expression pattern of miR-126 in high-density human colon cancer tissue microarray was analyzed by in situ hybridization. Further more, the biological function of miR-126 in colon cancer in vitro was investigated by establishing a stable miR-126 over-expression cell lines.
Result:hTe expression of miR-126 was lower in the tumor tissue, especially in metastasis tissue. hTe down-regulation of miR-126 was more obvious in the patients who displayed bad prognosis (P=0.025). Over-expression of miR-126 in colon cancer cell was able to inhibit cell proliferation, promote cell apoptosis and reduce the invasive ability. MiR-126 significantly enhanced the sensitivity of the colon cancer cell to chemotherapeutic drug. It has been shown that IRS1, SLC75A and TOM1 were the potential target genes of miR-126 in colon cancer.
Conclusion:MiR-126 was able to inhibit the development of colon cancer and its level was closely related with the prognosis of patients with colon cancer. The potential target genes for miR-126 might include IRS1, SLC7A5 and TOM1. Therefore, miR-126 might be a therapeutic target for colon cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To evaluate the choices and surgical skills for tension-free femoral hernia repair under local anesthesia. Methods The clinical data of 109 nonincarcerated femoral hernia patients were summarized from December 2002 to December 2009. Patients were divided into 3 groups according the time period at which the surgery was performed. 85 patients from 2002 to 2008 were divided into 2 groups,45 cases treated with preperitoneal repair ( preperitoneal group), and the other 40 cases with mesh-plug repair (plug group). The 24 cases admitted from January 2009 to December 2009 received modified preperitoneal repair. Operation time, VAS, length of hospitalization, incidence of recurrence, foreign body feelings and seroma were compared among the three groups. Results All the 109 patients were repaired under local anesthesia, and there was no perioperative death. The statistical indicator value of incidence of recurrence, foreign body sensation and seroma in preperitoneal group was lower than plug group (P <0.05). The modified preperitoneal repair was better in operation time, VAS, length of hospitalization than preperitoneal group (P < 0.05). Conclusions Modified preperitoneal repair under local anesthesia is the choice for treating femoral hernia without incarceration. Modified preperitoneal repair is faster, more minimally invasive and faster recovery.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI)for the differential diagnosis of the adenoid cystic carcinoma and pleomorphic adenoma of the head and neck.Methods Thirty-one pa-tients with histopathologically proved adenoid cystic carcinoma and pleomorphic adenoma were examined with DCE-MRI,in which 10 cases were benign and 21 cases were malignant.The data of the conventional 3.0T DCE-MRI were improved by the 3D fast spoiled gradient-echo sequence (FSPGR)method.Z-test was performed on the quantitative parameters for benign and malignant le-sions,including volume transfer constant (Ktrans ),rate constant (Kep )and extravascular extracellular space fraction (Ve ).The re-ceiver operating characteristic (ROC)curves were plotted to investigate the diagnosis.Results The mean Ktranss of the adenoid cystic carcinoma group and pleomorphic adenoma group were (0.266 ± 0.103 )min-1 and (0.1 55 ± 0.080)min-1 respectively,and the difference between them were statistically significant (Z =-2.699,P < 0.05).The difference between the keps of the aforementioned two groups was of statistical significance (Z =-2.263,P < 0.05),while that of the ves is without statistical significance (Z =-1.132, P >0.05).The areas under the ROC curves of the Ktrans and kep were 0.813 and 0.763 respectively.Choosing the optimal diagnostic cut-off points corresponding to the maximum Youden indexes 0.173 min-1 and 0.818 min-1 ,the sensitivities of Ktrans and kep for identifying the adenoid cystic carcinoma and pleomorphic adenoma were 90.9% and 81.8%,and the specificities were 77.8% and 66.7%.Ktrans was of the highest sensitivity and specificity for the identification of the adenoid cystic carcinoma and pleomorphic adenoma.Conclu-sion The dynamic contrast-enhanced parameter Ktrans plays a certain role in the differential diagnosis of the adenoid cystic carcinoma and pleomorphic adenoma of the head and neck.

To evaluate in vitro release and transdermal behaviors of Huoxue Zhitong gel, modified Franz diffusion cell methods was applied to investigate in vitro transdermal absorption of Huoxue Zhitong gel and the content of paeonolan in receptor fluid composed of PEG400%-95% ethanol-water (l:3:6)were determined by HPLC. The results were processed and different equations were fitted. The release law were in accordance with Weibull equation and the fitting equation was In[-1/(1 - Q)] = -0.790 51nt - 1.7012 (r = 0.9809). In 8 hours, cumulative release of paeonol was 85. 18% and the release rate was 2.827 µg . cm-2 h-1. Transdermal actions were consistent with zero-level model fit and the fitting equation was Q(t) = 1.7579t + 0. 7213 (r = 0.9991). In 8 hours, cumulative transdermal rate and transmission rate of paeonol was 54. 85%, 1. 820 µg . cm-2 h-1. So the Huoxue Zhitong gel had a good release and transdermal properties.
