Objective To compared the effect of combined teaching method of lecture,case analysis and GasMan@software (LAG) and traditional teaching method (LBL) in inhalation anesthesia practice course.Method 78 anesthesiological undergraduates were randomly assigned to G group (n=39) or Control group (n=39).According to the requirements of clinical anesthesiology in the syllabus,G group used classroom lectures,case analysis and GasMan@software (LAG) teaching method,while Control group used lecture based learning (LBL) teaching method.The students took anonymous quiz and filled teaching effect evaluation form after practice course.Then the exam results were compared between groups to evaluate the teaching effect.SPSS 19.0 was applied to do statistical analysis and t test and x2 test were used.Results Compared to the Control group,G group got better results in objective questions like choosing,judgment,case analysis and average ranks (P=0.000),and there was no significant difference in the identification section (P=0.087),while G group also got better results in subjective questions like learning interests,study efficiency,memorize,logical thoughts,ability of analysis,solving problems and cooperation (P＜0.05).Conclusion Compared to traditional teaching method,the combined use of lecture,case analysis and GasMan@software make students immersive,develop their clinical thinking ability,and improve the teaching effect of inhalation anesthesia practice course significantly.

Urid acid is one of the terminal metabolites of human body.More and more attention was paid to its metabolic mechanisms in intestinal tract;however, few studies were seen so far.This study aims to illuminate the metabolic mechanism of uric acid in intestinal tract by two ways:one is the transporters associated with intestinal epithelium, including ABCG2 and SLC2A9, the other is decomposition of uric acid by intestinal flora.We hope this review can provide new insights to decrease blood uric acid and treat urate-related diseases, and also provide a new way to alleviate drug-induced kidney damage.

Background:Vitamin D receptor( VDR)is a member of the steroid hormone receptor superfamily,which plays roles in various biological processes including cell proliferation,differentiation,apoptosis and immune responses,and is low expressed in many malignant tumors. Aims:To evaluate the expression and regulation mechanism of VDR in colorectal cancer. Methods:A total of 30 patients with colorectal cancer admitted from February 2010 to December 2012 at Ren Ji Hospital,School of Medicine,Shanghai Jiao Tong University were enrolled. Expression of VDR in cancerous tissue and para-cancer noncancerous tissue was determined by immunohistochemistry. Clinical data of 224 patients with colorectal cancer were collected from Gene Expression Omnibus( GEO)for analyzing the correlation between VDR expression in cancerous tissue and clinicopathological characteristics as well as survival time. Expression of VDR in human colon cancer cell lines HCT116 and SW620 transfected with enhancer of zeste homolog 2( EZH2 )-siRNA or treated with 5-azacytidine (5-AZA)was determined by real-time PCR,and methylation level of VDR promoter was determined by methylation-specific PCR( MSP). Results:Positivity rate of VDR was significantly lower in colorectal cancer tissue than that in para-cancer noncancerous tissue( 26. 7% vs. 70. 0%,P < 0. 001 ). Expression of VDR was negatively correlated with histological staging,distant metastasis,vascular metastasis and lymph node metastasis of colorectal cancer(P<0. 05). Survival time was significantly longer in patients with high expression of VDR than patients with low expression of VDR (P=0. 032). Compared with cells transfected with control-siRNA,expression of EZH2 mRNA and methylation level of VDR promoter in HCT116 and SW620 cells transfected with EZH2-siRNA were significantly decreased(P<0. 05),and expression of VDR mRNA was significantly increased(P<0. 05). Compared with negative control group,methylation level of VDR promoter in HCT116 and SW620 cells treated with 5-AZA was significantly decreased(P<0. 05),and expression of VDR mRNA was significantly increased(P<0. 05). Conclusions:Expression of VDR in colorectal cancer is down-regulated and positively correlated with a favourable prognosis. Transcriptional repression of VDR in colorectal cancer is co-regulated by histone methylation and DNA methylation.

A size exclusion chromatography method ( SEC) was established for the screening of macromolecules in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) injections. In the experiment, TCM was collected through 0. 45μm hybrid filter and separated by SEC with MAbPac SEC-1 column. Acetonitrile was added by post-column mode with a flow rate of 0. 2 mL/min to enhance the detection sensitivity, and 25 mmol/L ammonium formate was used as the mobile phase at flow rate of 0. 2 mL/min. The charged aerosol detection was carried out with Dextran and Tween as the reference standards. The molecular weight distribution of Dextran ranged from 2500 to 133800 had a good linear relationship with the retention time. No macromolecules were detected out in the selected traditional Chinese medicine injections except Kuhuang injections.

Objective Co-stimulation cells is a kind of natual killer (NK)-like T cells, which can kill tumor cells.Previous studies show that lupeol , an natural plant extracts , can change the growth of NK cells ,γδT cells and their effects on tumor cells .This study aimed to investigate the effects of lupeol on human co-stimulation cells and colonic cancer cell lines SW 480 . Methods The peripheral blood mononuclear cells ( PBMC) from healthy volunteers were induced in vitro by different cytokines and transferred into Co-simulation cells.After SW480 and Co-stimulation cells were incubated with different concentrations of lupeol for different durations , methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) was used to detect the effects of lupeol on co-stimulation cells and colonic cancer cell lines SW480. Lactate dehydrogenase was used to determine the cell-killing activity of Co-simulation cells to colonic cancer lines SW 480 . Results The concentration of lupeol in 0.1-200.0 mg/L promoted the growth of Co-stimulation cells and inhibited the colonic cancer cell lines SW480.When the concentration of lupeol is at 12.5 mg/L, the cell-killing activity of Co-simulation cells to colonic cancer lines SW 480 was enhanced significantly compared with the controls (76%vs 40%, P<0.05). Conclusion Lupeol could promote the prolifera-tion of Co-stimulation cells, inhibit the growth of cancer lines SW480, and strengthen the cytotoxicity of Co-stimulation cells against co-lonic cell lines SW480.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the protective effect of total alkaloids of Rhizoma Corydalis (TARC) on experimental gastric mucosal lesions in rats. METHODS Gastric mucosal lesions were induced in rats by injecting acetic acid under gastric mucosal. From the 2nd day post the preparation of the rat model, cimetidine 400 mg · kg-1 or TARC 20, 40 and 80 mg · kg-1 was ig delivered for 15 d in different groups. Two days after the last delivery, gastric juice volume and total acidity were measured. Histopathology of stomach tissues was observed by HE staining. The area of gastric ulcer area was measured and the ulcer index and ulcer inhibitory rate were calculated. The expression of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and EGF receptor (EGFR) was detected by immunohistochemical staining. RESULTS Comparing with shame group, the eare of gastric ulcer and ulcer index were increased signifi?cantly in the model group(P<0.01), suggesting that the model rats were prepared properly. Compared with the model group, the ulcer area in rats of cimetidine and TARC 80 mg·kg-1 groups was decreased by 39.9%and 23.7%,respectively. The ulcer index was decreased by 52.3%and 30.5%,respectively. There was no significant difference between the cimetidine group and TARC 80 mg · kg-1 group, in the ulcer area or index. Compared with model group, EGF protein expression of cimetidine and TARC 40 and 80 mg · kg-1 groups was increased by 81.8%,24.2%and 57.6%,respectively while EGFR protein expression was increased by 45.9%,16.2%and 29.7%,respectively(P<0.05,P<0.01). Deciduous and necrotic gastric mucosal and a large amount of inflmmatory cells infiltration were observed in model group, and gastric mucosal lesions were improved in cimetidine and TARC 40 and 80 mg · kg-1 groups. CONCLUSION TARC has protective effect on gastric mucosal lesions in rats. The mechanism may be related to the increase of EGF and EGFR protein expression.
