In the present study, A fluorescent imaging-based high-throughput screening method was developed for identifying anti-migratory compounds with 96-well Transwell plates. The correlation, precision and stability of this method were examined and the incubation time of dye Hoechst 33342 in addition to migration time was optimized. In addition, The inhibitory activity of anti-cancer drug paclitaxel on tumor cell migration was assayed and an IC50 value of 0.717 micromol x L(-1) was obtained. Using this method, 24 components from Rhizoma Alismatis were screened and one component with anti-migration activity was found. These results show that the new proposed method with good precision, stability and linear range has the potential to assay the inhibitory activity of anticancer compounds.

Analysis was conducted on the reason and countermeasures for problems such as un stable research direction in the medical law discipline construction,shortage of teachers and academic team,poor results of scientific research and unpractical personnel training.Strengthening the discipline construction of medical law,firstly we should attach great importance to it and unify the recognition,ensuring that the discipline of medical law can be dcvcloped healthily and within standard ; secondly we should strengthen the construction of discipline content and improve construction level of medical law; thirdly we should combine medicine with law,cultivating high-leveled talents.

Objective To investigate the possibility of survivin inhibition by lentiviral vector-mediated RNA interference and the influence on cell apoptosis in pancreatic cancer cell line.Methods The lentiviral vector of SiRNA targeted against survivin(LV-shRNA-survivin-1,LV-shRNA-survivin-2,LV-shRNA-survivin-3) was constructed and transfected into the packaging cells 293T,and then the supernatant with virus was collected to transfect SW1990 cells.Quantitative real-time fluorescent PCR and Western-blot were used to detect the expression of survivin.DAPI staining and detection of enzymatic activity of caspase 3/7 were employed to examine cell apoptosis.Results Three lentiviral vector-survivin-shRNA were constructed successfully.In the LV-shRNA-survivin-1 group,the survivin mRNA and protein expression inhibitory rate was 73.50% and 87.64% respectively;when compared to control group,the activity of caspase-3/7 increased significantly,which showed a 14.5-fold increase,and apoptosis increased 11.95%.Conclusions Lentiviral vector-mediad RNA interference targeted against survivin can effectively inhibit survivin expression and increase cell apoptosis significantly.

0.05).However,the percentage of patients with cholecystolithiassis was 86.5% in IGC group,and 50.6% in GC group(P=0.000).Besides the percentage of IA stage in IGC group(29.7%) was relatively higher than that(9.0%)in GC group(P=0.03);the surgical resection rate of tumor in IGC group was 56.8% and 32.6% in GC group(P=0.01).Nevertheless,the percentage of advance stage in IGC group(43.2%) was relatively lower than that in GC group(74.2%)(P=0.001).The overall 1,3,and 5-year survival rate of IGC group was 70.0%,31.2% and 26.8% repectively,and the mean survival time was17 months(51?13);which were significantly higher than those in GC group,in which the 1,3,5-year survival rate was 27.0%,17.7% and 15.1% repectively and the mean survival time was(25?8),5 months(all P=0.006).Single factor analysis showed that the survival time in IGC patients was influenced by the TNM stage(P=0.000),pT-category(P=0.000),operation-category(P=0.008);however,postoperative pathological grade(P=0.080),age(P=0.188) and sex(P=0.234) had no influence on survival rate.According to multivariate analysis,pT-category(P=0.000)was an independent factor for the survival time of IGC.Conclusions Comparing with GC group,IGC has a higher percentage of cholecystolithiassis,IA tumor stage and surgical resection rate,and thus,it has relatively better progonosis.pT-category is the vital independent prognostic factor in IGC.If a patient in ICG has been misdiagnosed during the primary operation,the patient should be re-operated for radical excision as soon as possible,except when the tumor is in stage Tis or T1a.

Objective: To determine the inhibitory effects of maltitol-gum on Streptococcus mutans, Lactobacilli and Actinomyces viscosus in dental plaque. Methods: Thirty 13-15 years old children with DMFS>4 were divided into three groups, maltitol chewing gums group(A group), xylitol chewing gum group(B group) and blank gum base group (C group). The plaque samples were collected and colony forming units were counted. Results: The levels of three-species cariogenic pathogens in three groups were statistically down-regulated when compared with the baseline(P<0.001).Moreover, A group and B group resulted in a higher decrease of Streptococcus mutans levels compare with C group(P<0.05). The levels of Lactobacilli and Actinomyces viscosus were not statistically different between groups(P>0.05). Conclusion: Maltitol-gum can lead to a significant suppression on Streptococcus mutans levels in dental plaque,while the inhibitory effect of the maltitol-gum on Lactobacilli, Actinomyces viscosus is not obvious.

Objective To summarize the clinical experience of fat granule injection for auto-trans-plantation in the treatment of concave temporal area. Methods The fat granule was extracted with injec-tor and injected into temporal area after washing and purging, but it might be necessany for patient to be injected extra 20 % fat autograft due to his absorptive effect. Results Satisfactory results were obtained in all patients. Transplantation was carried out one time in 139 cases, two times in 9 cases, and three times in 4 cases. 6 - 28 ml fat granule was injected in one site at each time. Conclusion Fat granule injec-tion for auto-transplantation is a safe and ideal method to treat concave temporal area.

Objective To evaluate the safety and effect of local resection of the duodenum for the treatment of gastrointestinal stromal tumors(GISTs). Methods In this study, 12 duodenal GIST cases in which tumors located more than 1.0 cm away from the major duodenal papilla, underwent simple local resection of the duodenum along with the tumors measuring at 4 cm in diameter or less. The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. Results After simple local resection of the duodenum for GISTs, no stomal leak occurred and the margin was all negative. Pathologically tumors were all low risk grade. There was no recurrence during a follow-up of 9-38 months. Conclusions Local resection of the duodenum is safe and efficient in the treatment of duodenal GISTs should the tumors locat more than 1.0 cm away from the papilla.
