Objective:To study the clinical effect of corticosteroids (C S) with small dosage in the recurrence control of pemphigus. Methods: 25 cases of pemphigus were diagnosed by clinical and pathological examinati on.They were treated with CS at 60-80 mg/d in acute stage for symptom control.Th en,the dosage of CS was decreased by 5 mg in each following 2 weeks untill it re ached 2.5 mg/2 d. The treatment of 2.5 mg/2 d was continued for 1 year and was a ssisted with tripterygium polyglycoside, compound thalidomide, compound cyclopho sphamide (compounded with total saponins of ginseng), dapsone, and/or some kidne y-supplementing herbs. The patients were followed-up for 9~16 years.Re sults:No recurrence was observed in 16 cases(64%).Recurrence was found i n 9 cases(36%),among them 7(28%) were with light symptom and 2(8%) severe. Sever e side-effect was not found in all cases. Conclusion:The recurr ence of pemphigus may be controlled without severe side-effect by long-term us e of small dosage of CS assisted with proper immuno-inhibitors, immuno-regulat ors and/or some kidney-supplementing herbs.

Objective To made the animal model which is similar to the human pyelonephritis to strengthen the experimental basis for the therapy of acute urologic infectious disease. Method Using the method of semi-ligation of the ureter on single lateral and the injection of Enterobacter into the bladder to get pathologic transformation. Simultaneously, giving the different preparation of Zishen- tongguan Capsule, Sanjin Pills to intervene the models. Result Zishentongguan capsule middle dosage, western medicine treatment team had get obviously effect on rat body weight increasing, the drug treatment were validity. Conclusion The rat model with the acute nephropyelitis is similar to the character in the break of human, which manifest on the appearance, mental condition, body weight coefficient, kidney weight coefficient and pathologic change of the kidney. Succeed in the model establishment.

Objective To evaluate the effects of different concentrations of dexmedetomidine on large-con-ductance Ca2+-activated K+ (BKca) channels in the rat mesenteric arterial smooth muscle (MASM) cells.Methods Sprague-Dawley rats of both sexes,weighing 180-220 g,were used in this study.Single MASM cell was freshly isolated from mesenteric arteries in two steps.Ten cells were chosen and studied.When holding potential was 40 mV and the concentration of free calcium ions was 10-7 mol/L,inside-out patch-clamp technique was used to record the single BKCa channel current before and after application of different concentrations of dexmedetomidine (0,10-9,10-8,10-7,10-6,10-5 mol/L).Total open probability (NPo),amplitude (Am),mean open time (To) and mean close time (To) of single BKca channel were observed and recorded.Results Compared with the baseline value,dexmedetomidine 10-7,10-6 and 10-5 mol/L increased NPo in a concentration-dependent man-ner,and dexmedetomidine 10-9,10-8,10-7,10-6,10-5mol/L shortened Tc (P <0.05 or 0.01).Compared with the value obtained when the concentration of dexmedetomidine was 10-9 mol/L,Tc was significantly shortened when the concentration of dexmedetomidine was 10-8 mol/L (P < 0.05),and no significant change was found in Am and To obtained when different concentrations of dexmedetomidine were applied (P > 0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine 10-7,10-6 and 10-5 mol/L activate BKca channels in rat MASM cells in a concentration-depen-dent manner,which is one of the mechanisms of decrease in blood pressure by dexmedetomidine.

Aurora-B as an important kinase to adjust the cell normal mitosis is a potent target for cancer treatment. Aurora-B is overexpressed in a broad range of tumor and tumor cells are more sensitive while Aurora-B is inhibited. Due to the key role of the Aurora-B in cell mitosis, the development of its inhibitors is becoming more and more important. Several small molecules inhibit with a similar efficacy both Aurora-A and Aurora-B, however, in most cases the effects resemble Aurora-B disruption by genetic methods, indicating that Aurora-B represents an effective therapeutic target. There were several Aurora-B kinase inhibitors which had entered the clinics and displayed good antitumor activity. In this review, we will outline the functions of Aurora kinase B in normal cell division and in malignancy. We will focus on recent preclinical and clinical studies that have explored the mechanism of action and clinical effect of Aurora-B inhibitors in cancer treatment.

Objective To identify novel mutations in the GATA6 gene associated with congenital atrial septal defects (ASD).Methods This was a case-control study.A cohort of 220 unrelated Han-race patients with congenital ASD and 200 unrelated ethnically matched healthy individuals used as controls,who were admitted to Tongji University Affiliated Tongji Hospital from January,2007 to October,2011,were recruited.The peripheral venous blood samples from the participants were prepared.All the coding exons and their flanking sequences of the GATA6 gene were amplified by polymerase chain reaction and sequenced using the di-deoxynucleotide chain termination technique.The acquired sequences were aligned with the sequences derived from GenBank by BLAST to identify the sequence variations.The software ClustalW was used to analyze the conservation of the altered amino acids.Results Three novel heterozygous missense GATA6 mutations,c.250G >A (p.A84T),c.649G >C (p.G217R) and c.1270A >C (p.S424R),were identified in 3 of 220 ASD patients,respectively.None of the three mutations was detected in 200 healthy control individuals.A cross-species alignment of GATA6 encoded protein sequences showed that the mutated amino acids were relatively conserved evolutionarily.Conclusion The identification of novel GATA6 mutations associated with ASD contributes to the reveal of the mechanism involved in the pathogenesis of ASD.
