Colorectal cancer is a common malignant tumor of digestive tract, and the risk of inflammatory bowel disease developing into colorectal cancer is significantly increased. Immune signaling pathways NF-κB, IL-6/STAT3, COX-2/PGE2, IL-23/Th17 and TLRs have been confirmed to promote the transformation from colitis to colorectal cancer. NOD2 and intestinal microbes also participate in the regulation of inflammation mediated carcinogenesis. Chronic inflammation is a potential risk for colorectal cancer, and anti-inflammatory drugs may play a chemical preventive role. In this review, we summarize the signaling pathways involved in inflammation-associated colon carcinogenesis and evaluate the chemoprophylaxis of colon cancer.

At the time of phage’s discovery, phage therapy was regarded as a possible treatment method against bacterial infection. Although phage therapy was used to treat and prevent bacterial infection in the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, it was abandoned by the West in the 1940s with the arrival of the antibiotic era. However, the ongoing evolution of bacterial multidrug-resistance has recently motivated the Western scientific community to reevaluate phage therapy for bacterial infections that are incurable by conventional chemotherapy. With the indepth study of phages, it’s increasingly acknowledged that phages, as the medicine to cure bacterial infection, are convenient, safe and efficient therapeutics. This paper summarizes the recent years’ advanced researches in this area.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of citalopram in the treatment of functional gastrointesti-nal disorders complicated with anxiety or depression. METHODS:62 patients with functional gastrointestinal disorders complicat-ed with anxiety or depression were randomly divided into treatment group(34 cases)and control group(28 cases). Control group was given routine treatment,treatment group was additionally given Citalopram tablet with initial dose of 10 mg,qd,increasing to 40 mg qd,according to the situation of patients,on the basis of control group. Treatment course of 2 groups lasted for 3 months. The gastrointestinal symptom integral,HAMD and HAMA were compared between 2 groups before and after treatment,and clini-cal efficacy and the occurrence of ADR were observed. RESULTS:There was no statistical significance in gastrointestinal symptom integral,HAMD and HAMA between 2 groups before treatment (P>0.05). After Treatment,above scores of 2 groups decreased significantly,and the treatment group was lower than the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Total effective rate of treatment group was significantly higher than that of control group (94.12% vs. 67.86%),with statistical significance (P<0.05). Olny 4 patients of treatment group suffered from mild ADR. CONCLUSIONS:Citalopram shows significant therapeutic effi-cacy in the treatment of functional gastrointestinal disorders complicated with anxiety or depression,and can improve digestive tract symptom and anxiety or depression,and help to improve patients’gastrointeseinal symptoms with good safety.

Objective To investigate the functional states of stroke patients using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) core sets for stroke. Methods Fifty in-patients with stroke participated in this study. Twenty-five patients less than one month after a stroke were assigned to the acute group, and another 25 patients with more than one month since their stroke were assigned to the sub-acute and chronic group. All the patients were assessed using the Glasgow coma scale, Rankin grading and the Barthel index. The ICF core set for stroke assessment was also used with both groups. The data was analyzed by using a Chi squared frequency test. Results Rankin grades and Barthel indices were significantly different between the two groups, and the functional states in the acute group were better than those in the sub-acute and chronic group. Some of the items, such as consciousness state, functions of structures adjoining the eyes, hearing, substitutive sound, accessory respiration, temperature regulation and protection function of the skin had no significant difference between the groups. The number of patients suffering from disorders of joint motion, joint stability, muscle endurance and control of voluntary movement was significantly greater in the sub-acute and chronic group than in the acute group. Both groups were influenced to different degrees by most of the environmental factors. Conclusion The ICF core sets correctly indicated joint motion, joint stability, muscle endurance and control of voluntary movement difficulties of stroke patients.

BACKGROUND: The effective fraction of stem and leaf of Scutellaria baicalensis, total flavones from stem and leaf of Scutellaria baicalensis (SSTF) can improve blood flow of coronary artery and cerebral blood flow,prolong the time of cruor and prothrombin and decrease blood lipid.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of SSTF on blood pressure of normal rats and rat models of renal artery stenosis.DESIGN: A completely randomized and controlled experiment.SETTING: Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Chengde Medical College (Key Laboratory of Research and Exploiture of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Hebei Province) MATERIALS: Totally 70 Wistar rats, aged 2 months old , of clean degree, with body mass of (250±50) g, male and female in half, with permission number of 01-3003 , were provided by the Experimental Animal Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. SSTF was provided by the phytochemical laboratory of Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Chengde Medical College; Niuhuangjiangya pian was produced by Shiyitang Pharmaceutical Factory, Hayao Company (batch number:9802304).METHODS: The experiment was conducted in Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Chengde Medical College from January to October 1999. The rats were raised in the environment of (22±1) ℃, with relative humidity of 50%-55%, of daylight and darkness for 12 hours for each. ①In the experiment 1, we studied the effect of SSTF on the blood pressure of normal rats. Totally 30 Wistar rats were randomly divided into SSTF group of 100 mg/kg (n=10, 100 mg/kg SSTF), SSTF group of 50 mg/kg (n=10, 50 mg/kg SSTF), and normal saline control group (n=10, 0.5 mL /100 g normal saline). Before being administrated, rats were anaesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of pentobarbital sodium. Blood pressure was recorded by MecLab/4e four-channel physiologic instrument. Then intragastric administration of SSTF and normal saline were performed on the rats in SSTF groups and normal saline control group respectively. Thirty minutes later, the changes of blood pressure of rats in each group were observed successively. ②In the experiment 2, we studied the effect of SSTF on the blood pressure of model rats with hypertension induced by renal artery stenosis. The rest 40 Wistar rats were randomly divided into SSTF group of high dosage, SSTF group of low dosage, normal saline control group, Niuhuangjiangya pian group, with 10 rats in each group. Rats in each group were created into rat models with hypertension induced by renal artery stenosis according to methods from the literatures. Two weeks after operation, intragastric administration of 100 mg/kg SSTF, 50 mg/kg SSTF, 0.5 mL/100 g normal saline and 1 200 mg/kg Niuhuangjiangya pian were daily performed on the rats in four groups respectively for one month successively. Carotid blood pressure of rats in all groups was measured.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① The effect of SSTF on the blood pressure of normal rats. ②The effect of SSTF on the blood pressure of model rats with hypertension induced by arteria renalis stenosis.RESULTS: ① Effect of SSTF on the blood pressure of normal rats: Blood pressure of SSTF group of 50 mg/kg and SSTF group of 100 mg/kg presented a little decrease compared with before administration. There was no significant difference when compared with normal saline control group (P ＞ 0.05). ②Effeet of SSTF on the blood pressure of model rats with hypertension induced by arteria renalis stenosis: Blood pressure of rats with hypertension in normal saline control group was significantly increased after modeling; Blood pressure of rats with hypertension in SSTF group of 50 mg/kg , SSTF group of 100 mg/kg and Niuhuangjiangya pian group was significantly lower than that in the normal saline control group, especially significantly in SSTF group of 100 mg/kg [(126.3±14.5),(120.2±15.9),(127.8 ±23.4 ) ,(139.6±15.8) mm Hg; P ＜ 0.05-0.01].CONCLUSION: SSTF has the significant hypotensive effect on model rats with hypertension; it does not have obvious effect on normal rats.

BACKGROUND: Yishen jiangu granule is one of sheer traditional Chinese drugs, which has good effect of tonifying kidney, strengthening bone, reinforcing the spleen, nourishing qi and improving the body condition, mainly used to prevent the lassitude, rickets, osteomalacia and calcium-deficiency induced by kidney-deficiency.OBJECTIVE: To observe the preventive effect of yishen jiangu granule on the reproductive organs, physical strength as well as the ability of stress, and compare with the effect of longmu zhuanggu preparation which was characterized by invigorating spleen and replenishing qi, and tonifying kidney and replenishing essence.DESIGN: Completely randomized controlled design.SETTING: Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Chengde Medical CollegeMATERIALS: A total of 180 Kunming mice, weighing 25-30 g, of half gender, of clean grade, were selected in this study. Longmu zhuanggu granule, which was composed of root of tangshen, tuckahoe, rhizome of lagehead atractylodes, huai yam, astragalus root, schisandra fruit, keel,oyster shell, tortoise plastron, dwarf lilyturf, Chinese date, licorice root,vitamin D, etc., was provided by Wuhan Jianmin Pharmaceutical Factory (batch number: 960618). Yishen jiangu granule, which was composed of 6 kinds of traditional Chinese medicine such as dark plum, Chinese wolfberry, oyster shell, etc., was manufactured by Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Chengde Medical College (batch number: 950510).Hydrocortisone injection was produced by Bohai Pharmaceutical Factory of Tangshan city (batch number: 940303).METHODS: The experiment was completed in Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Chengde Medical College from January to October 1997. ① A total of 180 mice were randomly divided into 6 groups with 30 in each group: normal group (5.0 mL/kg saline, muscle injection); model group (25 mg/kg hydrocortisone for the mice model with kidney-yang deficiency, muscle injection); longmu zhuanggu granule group (5.0 g/kg longmu zhuanggu granule, and 25 mg/kg hydrocortisone); three groups of yishen jiangu granule at different dosages (perfused respectively with yishenjiangu granule at the dosages of 1.25 g/kg, 2.5 g/kg and 5.0 g/kg;meanwhile, 25 mg/kg hydrocortisone, muscle injection). The mice were administered successively for 14 days. ② In 12 hours after giving the last medicine, each group was divided into 3 parts to go on with the following 3 sub-experiments: Firstly, the spermary and uterus of mice were taken out to determine their weight, then calculate the indexes (mass of uterus/body mass of mice); secondly, the mice were put into the water [water depth:30 cm, water temperature: (20±0.5) ℃], burden of tail of mice was weighed 10% of the body mass, then timed immediately, when the mice could not immerge from the water after their heads sank into the water for 10 seconds.It showed that they were exhausted (the time was regarded as the swimming time of mice); thirdly, 10 g sodalime was added into each bottle with wide neck whose volume was 150 mL, then one mouse was put into each of them,covered them and timed immediately. The breath of the mice was observed until they stopped breathing, then timing was over. This was the bearing time of mice on anoxia under normal pressure. ③ Difference of statistical significance between groups was determined by t-test.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The mass indexes of reproductive organs, swimming time and the bearing time on anoxia under normal pressure of the mice in all groups.RESULTS: A total of 180 mice were all involved in result analysis. ① The mass indexes of spermary in mice in normal group, longmu zhuanggu granule group and yishen jiangu groups at high and middle dosages were significantly higher than those in model group (P ＜ 0.05-0.01); the mass indexes of uterus in mice in normal group, longmu zhuanggu granule group and yishenjiangu groups at high dosage were significantly higher than those in model group (P ＜ 0.01). ② The swimming time of the mice in model group was significantly shorter than that in the other 5 groups (P ＜ 0.01). ③The bearing time on anoxia under normal pressure of the mice in model group were significantly shorter than that in the other 5 groups (P ＜ 0.01).CONCLUSION: Yishen jiangu granule has the remarkable effect on kidney-tonifying. It can remarkably relieve the reproductive organ atrophy of the mice with kidney-yang deficiency, has remarkable effect on antifatigue, and also can increase the ability of stress.
