Objective To explore the effect classroom teaching quality evaluation on the improve-ment of teaching quality. Methods In-service teachers offering classes to undergraduates majoring in clinical medicine during the period of 2010 to 2011 in Tangshan Clinical Hospital of Hebei Medical University were enrolled as research objectives. Totally 128 teachers(majored in 16 disciplines), screened out from the enrolled teachers, met the criteria and passed through the evaluation in terms of class quality of lessons. They were arranged in descending order and the top 15%were grouped as the preeminent group while the 15%at the bottom were classified as standard group and the rest 70%as good group. Descriptive analysis was made to appraise results from four respects:major and discipline, records of formal school-ing, professional ranks and titles and length of teaching experience. Results Based on the analysis of teaching situation in major disciplines, the top 3 disciplines possessing the largest proportion of preemi-nent teachers were neurology ( 50%) , otolaryngology-head and neck surgery ( 40%) and surgery (20.6%). When it comes to the analysis of formal schooling records of teachers , there is no distinct dis-crepancy in rate of standard reaching between teachers with postgraduate degree and teachers with gradu-ate degree. However, rate of standard reaching was slightly higher in teachers with other degrees than teaching with undergraduate degree or above. In the analysis of professional ranks and titles, the proportion was 94.6%in teachers with senior professional title(associated senior professional title and senior profes-sional title) and the teachers with medium grade professional title only occupied a proportion of 5.4%. In the dimension of teaching years, rate of outstanding and good teachers was relatively high in teachers with 8 teaching years and teacher with less than 3 teaching years, whereas the outstanding rate was low and rate of standard reaching was high in teachers with the 3-4 teaching years. Conclusions Measures to enhance the quality of teaching can be found out according to the analysis of influencing factors of teaching quality evaluation.

To investigate the antitumor activity induced by Ganoderma lucidum spore oil on different tumor cells. Human hepatoma cells(HepG2), human non-small cells lung cancer cells(A549)and human colon cancer cells(HCT116)were selected and tested. Cell viability was determined by MTT assay. Western blot analysis was performed to measure the expression of NF-κB and Caspase-3 activity in order to elucidate the mechanism of apoptotic activity caused by Ganoderma lucidum spore oil and to screen out the most sensitive cancer cell lines to Ganoderma lucidum spore oil. MTT assay demonstrated that Ganoderma lucidum spore oil had a strong inhibitory effect on the growth of three cancer cell lines. Among these cells, A549 cells were most sensitive to Ganoderma lucidum spore oil, followed by HepG2 cells and then by HCT116 cells. The results of Western blot showed that Ganoderma lucidum spore oil could promote the activation of NF-κB pathway, and that the activation of NF-κB signaling pathway in cancer cells treated by Ganoderma lucidum spore oil was stronger in A549 cells, HepG2 cells, HCT116 cells respectively. The detection of Caspase-3 activity showed that ganoderma spore oil could activate Caspase-3 dependent apoptosis pathways, which was more important in A549 cells, HepG2 cells and HCT116 cells. This study found that Ganoderma lucidum spore oil had inhibitory effects on A549, HepG2 and HCT116 cells growth and that its antitumor activity was in time-dose dependence. The mechanism may be related to the activation of NF-κB pathway and the Caspase-3 apoptotic pathway, which could accelerate apoptosis and necrosis of tumor cells. Among the three kinds of cancer cells, A549 cells was most sensitive to Ganoderma lucidum spore oil, followed by the HepG2 cells, and then by HCT116 cells.
