Objective To detect the expression of YB-1 and to research the relationship in the occurrence and development in the cervical squamous carcinoma(SCC) tissues.Methods Immunohistochemistry(IHC) envision was used to detect the expression of chronic cervicitis,CIN Ⅰ,CIN Ⅱ-Ⅲ and SCC.The relationship of YB-1 in the clinical pathological parameters of SCC were analyzed.Results YB-1 was mainly located in the nucleus in squamous cell,sometimes in the cytoplasm.The YB-1 protein did not expression in chronic cervicitis.In CIN Ⅰ,CIN Ⅱ-lⅢ and SCC,the positive expression had a gradual increasing trend.The expression of YB-1 was satistically significant in four groups (P＜0.05).The chronic cervicitis group,CIN Ⅰ groupCIN Ⅱ-Ⅲ group compared with the SCC group restivelly,the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).From spearman rank correlation analysis:the expression of YB-1 was positively correlated with the degree of cervical lesions (P＜ 0.05).In the cervical squamous carcinoma group,the expression of YB-1 was not associated with clinical pathological index of SCC patients(P＞0.05).Conclusion The change of the quantity of YB-1 protein is closely related to cervical squamous cell carcinoma.

Equisetin (EQST) belongs to polyketide (PKS)-nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) type compound with an inhibitory effect of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 (11β-HSD1) enzyme activity. This study investigated anti-obesity effect and insulin resistance improvement effect of EQST on high-fat diet (HFD)-induced ob/ob mice model. EQST treatment effectively reduced the body weight gain, fat weight gain and blood lipid content of model mice. All animal experiments were approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Capital Institute of Pediatrics. EQST alleviated adipose tissue expansion and hepatic ballooning degeneration of model mice, and also effectively controlled the blood glucose content after glucose load and insulin load, showed a significant improvement in obesity and insulin resistance. EQST inhibited adipogenic proteins fatty acid-binding protein 4 (FABP4) and peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor γ (PPARγ), and upregulated thermogenic protein (uncoupling protein 1, UCP1) through suppressing 11β-HSD1 protein expression. In addition, EQST widely upregulates mitochondrial respiratory metabolism related proteins in adipose tissue and may improve insulin resistance through phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) pathway. Therefore, EQST plays an anti-obesity role by promoting adipose tissue thermogenesis and improving insulin resistance, which may provide reliable clues for improving obesity and diabetes.

Adenoid hypertrophy is a disease that mostly occurs among children of 3-5 years old. It is caused by repeated inflammation and infection of nasopharynx and its adjoin parts, or the adenoid itself, which will finally leads to pathological hyperplasia of adenoid. With so much information we have acquired about this disease, its specific mechanism remains unknown. In recent years, some researches have indicated that adenoid hypertrophy may have something to do with extra-gastroesophageal reflux, in which pepsin plays a very important role, and pepsin will do a series of pathological damages to the upper airway as it reaches the upper respiratory tract. Based on relative domestic and foreign literature, this paper attempts to make a review about the relationship between gastroesophageal reflux and adenoid hypertrophy.

Because the biology characteristic of HIV is extremely different from that of other microorganisms, HIV vaccine research has being faced with unprecedented difficulties and challenges. In the last 20 years, HIV vaccine research has been carried out mainly with two strategies, i.e., neutralizing antibody based and cellular immunization based; however, substantive breakthroughs haven't been achieved until now. Inducing effective neutralizing antibody is always an important strategy in traditional vaccine research, but this strategy is much less efficient in HIV vaccine research because of high variation and much subtypes of HIV. In recent years, the discovery of broadly neutralizing monoclonal antibodies and elucidation of their corresponding antigen epitopes have brought new hopes for the development of neutralizing antibody based HIV vaccine. Reviewing these advancements will be helpful for reconsidering HIV vaccine development with a better strategy.

Drug-induced nephrotoxicity is very common in both new drug development and clinic practice. Various drugs can induce kidney injuries, including tubulointerstitial, glomerular and renal vascular disease. To investigate the mechanism of drug induced nephrotoxicity is important for risk reduction of new drug development, reasonable drug usage, early discovery and effective prevention/treatment of adverse effects in clinics.

Objective To evaluate the efficiency and safety of domestic rapamycin-eluting stent(Firebire stent) in the treatment of coronary heart disease.Methods Coronary angiography and stenting were carried out through femoral artery approach in 331 patients with coronary heart disease.The incidences of in-hospital major adverse cardiac events were recorded all the patients were followed up for 1 year.The follow-up angiography was carried out at at 6-9 months after discharge.Results A total of 597 domestic rapamycine-eluting stents were implanted in 331 patients.One patient died of pump failure after primary PCI and another patient required emergency CABG because of coronary artery rupture.NSTEMI happened in 3 patients after PCI.The incidence of in-hospital MACE was 1.5%.Three hundred and one patients finished a mean follow-up of 12.3?3.2 months.During the follow up period,non-fatal myocardial infrarction was recorded in 1 case,recurrent angina in 16 cases and target lesion revascularization in 5 cases.The overall MACE rate was 4.3%.Follow-up angiography was completed in 110 patients and the restenosis rate was 5.5%(6/110).Conclusion Domestic rapamycin-eluting stent(Firebird stent) was safe and effective in the treatment of coronary heart disease and may provide a higher cost-effectiveness due to its relatively low price.However,its long-term effect needs more studies to verify.
