Objective To investigate the change situation of serum pepsinogen (PG) and gastrin-17(G-17) levels change in gastric cancer,and on this basis diagnostic significance of combined detection of carbohydrate antigen 72-4 (CA72-4) and 13C urea breath test (13C UBT) detection in early gastric cancer.Methods The enzyme-linked immunosorbent (ELISA) method was used to detect serum PG Ⅰ,PG Ⅱ and G-17 levels in healthy people,atrophic gastritis group and gastric cancer group.Firstly the changes of above three indicators were compared;then according to PG Ⅰ and G-17,the carcinoma group was divided into the group A,B,C and D,these four groups were detected the helicobacter pylori infection status by 13C UBT.Finally the CA72-4 levels were performed the statistics by using the tumor markers detection results.Results Serum PG Ⅰ level and PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ ratio in the control group,atrophic gastritis group and gastric cancer group was gradually declined,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05);serum G-17 level in the control group,atrophic gastritis group and gastric cancer group was gradually increased,the difference among 3 groups was statistically significant (P<0.05);in early gastric cancer rate ratio among 4 groups,which in the group B was highest,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05);in the comparison of positive rates of 13 C UBT and CA72-4 level in early gastric cancer among 4 group,the 13 C UBT positive rate and CA72-4 level in the group B were higher than those in the group A,C and D,the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).Moreover the CA72-4 level in the group B had significant difference between early gastric cancer and advanced gastric cancer (P<0.01).Conclusion Serum PG Ⅰ reduce and G-17 increase combined with CA72-4 high level and 13C UBT positive have an important forewarning value for the diagnosis of gastric cancer.

Objective To purify and rejuvenate the plant of Curcama kwangsiensis,improve the transplantation survival rate of cultivars,and make the convenience of storagement and management for the cultivars production.Methods The rhizome plantlet formation of C.kwangsiensis was induced by regulating both of macro-element and sucrose concentration in the MS culture medium.Results Both of them were very important influence factors on the rhizome plantlet formation of C.kwangsiensis.Media 1/2 MS and 6% sucrose were adaptable to the rhizome plantlet formation of C.kwangsiensis,had the best effects on the formation rate of the rhizome plantlet,diameter and direct transplanting rate of the rhizome plantlet.Both plantlet and root system development were stronger.Conclusion In the present research,it is successful in inducing the rhizome plantlet formation of C.kwangsiensis.

Central nervous system (CNS) injuries, including stroke, traumatic brain injury, and spinal cord injury, are essential causes of death and long-term disability and are difficult to cure, mainly due to the limited neuron regeneration and the glial scar formation. Herein, we apply extracellular vesicles (EVs) secreted by M2 microglia to improve the differentiation of neural stem cells (NSCs) at the injured site, and simultaneously modify them with the injured vascular targeting peptide (DA7R) and the stem cell recruiting factor (SDF-1) on their surface via copper-free click chemistry to recruit NSCs, inducing their neuronal differentiation, and serving as the nanocarriers at the injured site (Dual-EV). Results prove that the Dual-EV could target human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs), recruit NSCs, and promote the neuronal differentiation of NSCs in vitro. Furthermore, 10 miRNAs are found to be upregulated in Dual-M2-EVs compared to Dual-M0-EVs via bioinformatic analysis, and further NSC differentiation experiment by flow cytometry reveals that among these miRNAs, miR30b-3p, miR-222-3p, miR-129-5p, and miR-155-5p may exert effect of inducing NSC to differentiate into neurons. In vivo experiments show that Dual-EV nanocarriers achieve improved accumulation in the ischemic area of stroke model mice, potentiate NSCs recruitment, and increase neurogenesis. This work provides new insights for the treatment of neuronal regeneration after CNS injuries as well as endogenous stem cells, and the click chemistry EV/peptide/chemokine and related nanocarriers for improving human health.
