1.Lysosomal storage disorders
Journal of Peking University(Health Sciences) 2006;38(1):100-102
Lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) are genetic defects caused by lysosomal hydrolase deficiencies. These deficiencies lead to substrate accumulation affecting cells, tissues and organs. Detecting abnormal compound excretion and deficient enzymes assist diagnosis of these disorders for treatment and prevention. This mini review summarizes clinical presentations and diagnostic workup of LSDs and updates the new development in the area.
2.Stem cells and exercise-induced skeletal muscle cell apoptosis
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2010;14(6):1088-1091
BACKGROUND: Exercise-induced skeletal muscle apoptosis has been referred to as the current focus of sports medicine, and the application of stem cells in athletic injury rehabilitation and prevention has been reported. However, the role of stem cells in cell apoptosis remains unclear.OBJECTIVE: To summarize the effect and mechanism of stem cells in preventing exercise-induced skeletal muscle apoptosis to provide references for scientific sports training and physical activity.METHODS: A computer-based online search of PubMed (1991-01/2009-10) and CNKI (1994-01/2009-10) was performed for related articles with the keywords ""Exercise Training, Sports, Skeletal Muscle, Apoptosis" in English and "stem cells, exercise, skeletal muscle, apoptosis," in Chinese. Inclusion criteria: ① studies on stem cells and their apoptosis in skeletal muscle cells; ②articles in the same field published recently or in the authoritative journals. Exclusion criteria: ① Repetitive articles; ② Meta analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: A total of 360 articles were collected from the summary of literature through the stem cells and its application in the field of sports medicine research, and its skeletal muscle apoptosis in the changes and development trend of the application. Finally, 31 articles were included, including 21 reviews and 10 clinical or experimental studies. High-intensity exercise can cause apoptosis in skeletal muscle cells, while the use of stem cell technology can prevent apoptosis, to a certain extents by regulating Bcl-2 and Bax protein expression, thereby promoting the early recovery of skeletal muscle.

More and more research proved that CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells (Treg cells) play an important role in immune tolerance in these years. Known as a T cell growth factor, Interleukin2 (IL-2) regulated the immune tolerance induced by Treg cells. IL-2 sustained the activity of Treg cells both in thymus and periphery while it was dispensable for the development of Treg cells in thymus. In addition, IL-2 signal affected the function of Treg cells and maintained their competitive fitness. Therefore, CD4+CD25+ Treg cells and IL-2 formed an immune network to regulate the processes of immune response, immune tolerance and autoimmune homeostasis.

BACKGROUND:The Coflex is widely used in China, but it has a high complication rate of spinous process fracture. OBJECTIVE:With the help of finite element analysis, to verify if rigid restriction of spinous process contacts in modified Coflex design is semi-rigid restriction so as to reduce the stress of spinous process in spine flexion and extension, lateral bending and rotation and to decrease the risk of spinous process fracture. METHODS:The images were extracted from patients who had undergone abdomen CT scans in the Beijing Chaoyang Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University. Three-dimensional finite element model of lumbar spine was established. The Coflex model and the corresponding modified Coflex model were established and then simplified in the SolidWorks software of CAD. Tensile force, shearing force and axial rotating force in resting state were analyzed in ANSYS software. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Under tensile force, transversal shearing force and axial rotating force, compared with Coflex system, the stress of spinous process model was reduced in the modified system (P < 0.01). These findings indicate that the forces of the modified model are superior to the force of Coflex. It can reduce stress in the spinous process under stresses and diminish the occurrence of spinous process fractures.

GC retention index of volatilc component of Cyperus rotundus was studied by capillary Gas Chromatography, and the standard Gas Chromatographic diagram and GC retention in dex spectrum, which provide a new identification method for traditional Chinese medicine was established. This method may be used to difierentiate the genuine C. rotundus from other false or confusion products. The average CV (% ) of RI from 37 sets of C. rotundus from three differcnt producing areas were 0~0.24 The method posscsses well accuracy, comparability and good reproducibility

Objective:This study aimed to compare the efficacy and adverse reactions of two different chemotherapeutic regi-mens. In particular, chemotherapy with paclitaxel liposome was administered in combination with either S-1 or oxaliplatin as the first-line therapy of advanced gastric cancer. Methods:A total of 118 patients with advanced gastric cancer were randomly divided into groups A (61 cases) and B (57 cases). In group A, paclitaxel liposome combined with S-1 was administered;in group B, paclitaxel lipo-some combined with oxaliplatin was applied. The short-term efficacy, adverse reactions, Karnofsky performance status score, median time to progression (mTTP), and median overall survival (mOS) of the two groups were observed and compared. Results:No signifi-cant differences were observed in the objective response rate, disease control rate, and mTTP between groups A and B (31.1% vs. 29.8%, 75.4%vs. 71.9%, 4.2 months vs. 3.8 months;P>0.05). The mOS rates were 10.5 and 8.9 months in groups A and B, respectively, with statistically significant differences (P=0.006). The incidence of degreesⅢtoⅣdiarrhea and peripheral nerve toxicity was signifi-cantly higher in group B than in group A (P<0.05). No statistical differences were found between the two groups in terms of other side effects. Conclusion:The two paclitaxel liposome-based regimens showed similar therapeutic effect in patients with advanced gastric cancer. S-1/paclitaxel liposome treatment could be more effective in terms of mOS and had a tendency of lower toxicity.
