Asparaginase(ASP) is an important drug in the treatment of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia and non-Hodgkin lymphoma.Asparaginase associated pancreatitis (AAP) is the main treatment-adverse events of asparaginase.After reviewing the recent foreign literatures about AAP and the Chinese expert about polyethylene glycol conjugated asparaginase (PEG-ASP) in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia and malignant lymphoma with asparaginase,conclude and analysis the data about childhood AAP and show the epidemiology,clinical features,early diagnosis and effective treatment of children with AAP.Make clinical compare of L-asparaginase and PEG-ASP.Based on the full grasp of the relevant data,analyzing,introducing and integrating,this may be helpful to the diagnosis and treatment of childhood AAP.

Since upper limb function disorder exists in many children with cerebral palsy, it is improtant to assess and treat the disorder of the upper extremities. The common assessments include muscle tone, range of motion and upper extremity assessment. The goal of therapy is to decrease the muscle tone and increase the range of motion. In addition we should emphasize the functional ability and purposeful skill of the upper extremity.

Gene therapy of spinal cord injury (SCI) is the most promising method compared with the others, because it doesn't involve the problems of resource and higher exclusion which respectively exists in fetal nerve transplantation and peripheral nerve transplantation. There are two ways of gene therapy to be chosen: one is to transfer objective genes to the target-cells in vivo directly; the other is to transfer objective genes to one proper kind of transplantable cells firstly, then graft the highest expressing cells to the target-cells in vivo. To realize the transfer of genes to cells, two measures are used in common: physical or chemical measure such as micro infection et al and biochemical measure i. e. gene modified defective virus. Although there are some questions unresolved in this field, the clinical value of gene therapy of SCI in the future is depended.

Free-DNA exists in body fluid of cancer patients, and the concentration is much higher than that of healthy people, and the free DNA is characteristic of tumor issue. This article makes a summary about the study of free DNA in cancer patients,such as methylation,gene mutation, microsatellite instability (MSI) and loss of heterozygosity( LOH ). It has important significance for tumor dignosis,assessment of prognosis and recurrence.

Abstract: Based on years of ancient literature research and clinical experience, Professor Pin-kang Wei developed the phlegm theory of gastric cancer. In light of the properties of gastric cancer and the method of differentiating syndromes within the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) paradigm, it is believed that gastric cancer is closely related with phlegm. Much ancient literature regarding the relationship between phlegm and gastric cancer was reviewed to explain the rationale and academic inheritance of the phlegm theory. In this theory, gastric cancer is regarded as a form of phlegm stagnation and consists of phlegm core, phlegm collateral and phlegm contamination. In order to explain the mechanism of development, recurrence and metastasis of gastric cancer, phlegm contamination is regarded as the most fundamental cause and pathogenesis of gastric cancer. The therapy of resolving phlegm and dispersing nodules is suggested for the fundamental treatment of gastric cancer.

Objective To investigate the effects of antisense oligonucleotide against miRNA-155 (AS-miRNA-155) on proliferation,apoptosis and invasion and migration abilities of human cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma cell line A431. Methods AS-miRNA-155 was transfected into human cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma A431 cells by using LipofectamineTM 2000. Blank control without transfection and transfected with non-sense sequence were used as non-sense sequence control. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was performed to detect the expression of miRNA-155 in A431 cells. Cell proliferation was analyzed using dimethyl thiazolyldiphenyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay. Cell cycle arrest and apoptosis were studied by flow cytometry (FCM). Invasion and migration were measured by Transwell chamber assays. Results The relative expression of miRNA-155 mRNA was lower in the transfection group than that in the blank control group and the negative control group (F=634.57, P<0.01), but there was no significant difference between the blank control group and the negative control group. After 72 h transfection, the survival rate was significantly lower in the transfection group than that of the blank control group and the negative control group, and the transfection rate decreased significantly by 120 h (P<0.05). Cells of G0/G1 phase increased, Cells of S phase reduced, the overall PI value decreased in transfection group, and the apoptosis rate of A431 cells, migration and invasion of cells increased (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in G2/M cycle between transfection group, blank control group and negative control group. There were no significant differences in A431 cell apoptosis rate, cell migration and invasive ability between blank control group and negative control group. Conclusion Antisense oligonucleotide against miRNA-155 can inhibit the expression of miRNA-155, the proliferation and promote the apoptosis of human cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma A431 cells, which indicates that miRNA-155 may become a new target for the regulation of gene expression in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma.
