Objective To investigate the different ability to produce H_(2)O_(2+) of the vaginal lactobacilli and their potential antagonism toward E.coli in ivtro.Then to select the potential lactobacilli strain to treat the female urogenital infection.Method To detect production of H_(2)O_(2) by measuring the blue matter in water solution with absorbtion spectrophotometry.The lactobacillus and E.coli were cultured together in solid culture medium,followed by the measurement of inhibition zone around the lactobacilli after 24 hour.Results We selected 4 strains of lactobacilli from vagina.L.acidophilus1 and L.paracasei3 are the stronger to produce H_(2)O_(2).The largest diameter of the ring of inhibition is shown around the lactobacilli acidophilus 1.Conclusion The lactobacilli acidophilus 1 and lactobacilli crispatus are the most potential strains as antagonist to E.coli and their antagonism depend not only on lacid or H_(2)O_(2).
2.Research progress on PLK1 in castrate-resistant prostate cancer
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2015;(14):720-723
Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) is a highly conserved serine/threonine protein kinase that has attracted research attention be-cause it plays a critical role in mitosis regulation. PLK1 is overexpressed in 80%of human tumors, which indicates a poor prognosis in most tumors. PLK1 is one of the most promising targets for antitumor therapy because it is upregulated in castrate-resistant prostate can-cer (CRPC). This review focused on the basic structure and function of PLK1, the relationship between PLK1 and CRPC occurrence and progression, and CRPC treatment by inhibiting PLK1. This study provides a theoretical basis for the targeted molecular therapy of CRPC.

To investigate the psychological difference in abdominal aortic aneurysm patients before and after operation and its influence on life quality, 24 patients who can understand and complete the questionnaire were enrolled in the study, the inquiry was performed after admission and discharge with the standard SCL 90 table. The results showed that the general conditions, depression, anxiety, compulsive symptoms and fear of the patients had marked differences before and after operation. It is concluded that operation of abdominal aortic aneurysm can not only prevent the rupture of aneurysm but also relieve the patients′ psychological pressuer and improve their life quality.
4.Study of the correlation of cerebral CT and P300 in 30 patients with Alzheimer's disease
Journal of Third Military Medical University 2003;0(17):-
Objective To observe the changes of cerebral CT and auditory event related potentials (ERP, P300) for finding the effective method for the comprehensive evaluation of the patients with Alzheimer's disease. Methods Cerebral CT, P300, and Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) were employed to assess 30 patients with Alzheimer's disease. Results Latency and amplitude of wave of P300 in patients were prolonged and decreased, respectively. Cerebral CT found an obvious atrophy in the frontal and temporal lobes of cerebra. These changes were obviously correlated with the severity of dementia. Conclusion Using cerebral CT, P300, and MMSE can offer morphometric, functional and psychological information which is helpful for precise assessment of patients with Alzheimer's disease.
5.Research progress of chimeric antigen receptor-transduced-T cells in B-cell malignancies
Journal of Leukemia & Lymphoma 2014;23(12):757-760
Chimeric antigen receptor-transduced-T (CAR-T) cells shows strong cytotoxicity to the tumor with specific antigen by CTL effects and cytokines releasing without MHC-restriction.As multiple clinical trials from cancer centers around the West countries reported recent years,anti-CD19-CAR T cells can not only induce complete remission of B-cell malignancies resistant,but also eliminate the minimal residual disease (MRD) at the molecular level.It is believed that the obstacles from bench to clinic will be cleared and CAR will become one of the main cancer therapies with breakthroughs in comprehensive treatment of tumors.
6.Research Progress on Multiple Origins Theory of Epithelial Ovarian Carcinoma
Chinese Journal of Minimally Invasive Surgery 2015;(12):1117-1120
[Summary] Epithelial ovarian carcinoma has the highest fatality rate among gynecologic malignant tumors.Lacking of effective early diagnosis and screening method are the main reasons for its poor prognosis.There is a close relationship between the heterogeneity of epithelial ovarian carcinoma and the diversity of cancerous origins.According to the traditional theory, epithelial ovarian carcinoma derives from germinal epithelium at ovarian surface.The “secondary Mullerian system” theory has challenged above view.This“dualism” theory completely subverts the traditional one.However, both of the theories have their limitations.In recent years, the multiple origins theory of epithelial ovarian carcinoma has gradually become a hot point of discussion.
