As a member of PARP superfamily, PARP3 shares a high homology with PARP1 and PARP2, which are all DNA-dependent enzymes that are catalytically activated by DNA strand breaks.Compared to PARP1 and PARP2, PARP3 exerted some special properties in tissue expression pattern and biological function.The evidence has shown that PARP3 could be activated by DNA double strand breaks and special DNA single strand breaks and synthesize mono(ADP-ribose) (MAR) covalently attached to target proteins including itself.PARP3 plays an important role in DNA double strand breaks, DNA single strand breaks, activation of PARP1 and development of nervous system.It has been reported that PARP3 is associated with glioma and breast cancers.In this review, PARP3 structure, activation mechanism, biological function and its relationship with diseases will be presented.

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) has emerged as a promising anticancer drug target due to its key role in the DNA repair process. It can polymerize ADP-ribose units on its substrate proteins which are involved in the regulation of DNA repair. In this work, a novel series of para-substituted 1-benzyl-quinazoline-2, 4 (1H, 3H)-diones was designed and synthesized, and the inhibitory activities against PARP-1 of compounds 7a-7e, 8a-8f, 9a-9c and 10a-10c were evaluated. Of all the tested compounds, nine compounds displayed inhibitory activities with IC50 values ranging from 4.6 to 39.2 micromol x L(-1). In order to predict the binding modes of the potent molecules, molecular docking was performed using CDOCKER algorithm, and that will facilitate to further develop more potent PARP-1 inhibitors with a quinazolinedione scaffold.

Objective To establish a malignant pleural effusion model of Lewis lung cancer in C57BL/6 mice based on Micro Echo technology. Methods Single tumor cell suspension of Lewis lung cancer was injected into thoracic cavity.The pleural effusion was detected by Micro Echo technology.The volumes of effusion were quantified and the tumor cells were counted.Results After implanted of tumor cell, malignant pleural effusion can be detected by Micro Echo technology and observed after autopsy.Chemotherapy drugs such as Cyclophosphamide and Cisplatin can decrease the effusion volumes.Conclusion Pleural effusion model of Lewis lung cancer based on Micro Echo technology can be used to evaluate the efficacy of antitumor drugs.

Objective To evaluate the safety of Fotemustine. Methods The studies had been done according to the experimental method of injection agents in pharmacodynamics guide principle on toxic test methods of application. The vascular stimulative assay of fotemustine injection on rabbit, the hemolyzation or agglutination of it in vitro, and the allergic reaction on guinea pig were performed. Results It was showed that the Fotemustine injection had no vascular irritation and injury effect on rabbit vascular endothelial cell. Compared with that of the control group, there was no difference. Conclusion No evidences of hemolyzation and aggregation on rabbit erythrocyte, and no allergic reaction on guinea pig were observed.

Poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1 (PARP-1) plays a significant role in the DNA repair process by catalyzing the transfer of ADP-ribose from NAD+ to its receptors. It is a promising anticancer drug target and many PARP-1 inhibitors have been developed and used in the clinical trial. In this work, a series of 3-(2-oxo-2-substituted acetamido)benzamides have been synthesized and their inhibitory activities against PARP-1 were evaluated. Of all the tested compounds, six compounds displayed inhibitory activities with IC50 values ranging from 0.23 to 5.78 µmol.L-1 . The binding pose of compound 5a was predicted using molecular docking to facilitate further structural modification.

Objective To study the outcomes and problems of comprehensive medical pricing reform in Jiangsu.Methods The business operations,drug proportion and patient′s expenses of 28 pilot hospitals in 1 5 counties of the province before and after the reform were compared,to learn the impacts of the pricing reform on both hospitals and patients.Results Medical revenue and medical service quantity of these hospitals during this period(January to June)of 2012—2014 maintain a fast growth,with lower drug proportions,and patients′expenditure unchanged.Compared with data of the same period in 2012, the total revenue growth rates of the hospitals in 2013 and 2014 were 13.4% and 1 1.1% respectively;and their drug proportions were 44.9% and 42.3%;and the expenditure growth rates for outpatient/emergency service were 5.9% and 3.1% respectively.Conclusions The reform has achieved an initial success.However the pricing system,needs to be further rationalized to build a better price formation mechanism,in line with relevant reforms.
