Background and purpose:The prognosis of advanced esophageal carcinoma is poor,there are no standard regimens for these patients. This study was to observe and evaluate the clinical feasibility and effi cacy of combined esophageal stent insertion with radiotherapy and concurrent chemotherapy in the treatment of locally advanced esophageal carcinoma. Methods:66 patients with esophageal carcinoma who were not suitable for operation were analyzed retrospectively. In the therapy group,stent was placed in order to relieve esophageal stenosis,and then followed by 3D-CRT and concurrent chemotherapy,while patients in the control group were treated with the placement of stent alone. According to the evaluating standards of WHO and Stooler classifi cation,we evaluated the effi cacy. Results:In the study group,72.2% of 36 cases was observed as partial response(PR),and 13.9% with complete response(CR),overall response rate was 86.1%. 6 and 12 months survival rates were 88.9% and 72.2% in the study group,compared to 53.3% and 26.7% in the control group,respectively(P

Objective To observe the effect of Ginkgolide B of various consistency on the differentiation of neuron stem cells (NSCs).MethodsNSCs were cultured in differentiation medium containing Ginkgolide B of various consistency for 3 and 7 days, the neurites length and cell body area were measured by inverted phase-contrast micrograph, then neurofilament-200 (NF-200), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), adenomatus polyposis coli (CC-1) expression were detected and counted by fluorescence microscope. The suppressor of cytokine signaling-2 (SOCS2), inhibitor of DNA binding-2 (Id2) were alsoimmunostained. The percentage of positive cells were counted respectively.ResultsThe neurites length and cell body area in Ginkgolide B groups were obviously larger than that in the control group. The percentage of NF, GFAP positive cells in Ginkgolide B groups increased with dosage increasing of Ginkgolide B. Compared with the normal control group, the percentage of SOCS2 positive cells increased significantly ( P<0.01) and the percentage of Id2 positive cells decreased significantly ( P<0.01) in Ginkgolide B groups.ConclusionGinkgolide B can promote NSCs to differentiate into neuron and astrocyte, the percentage of astrocyte is increased with a dosage-dependent relationship with Ginkgolide B.

AIM: To detect the protein expression of TIMP3 and RUNX3 in bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMCs) from acute leukemia (AL) patients and to investigate the relationship between the methylation status of genes and their expressional levels. METHODS: Protein expression of TIMP3 and RUNX3 in 50 samples of BMMCs and 10 samples of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from healthy volunteers was detected by Western blotting. The prognostic factors related to AL and data from methylation specific polymerase chain reaction were also analyzed. RESULTS: The expression level of RUNX3 with methylation was less than that without methylation in BMMCs from AL patients. The complete remission (CR) rate was related to RUNX3 expression and blasts in bone marrow (BM). BMMCs from patients with silencing of RUNX3 and higher blasts in BM had a lower CR rate. CONCLUSION: Absence of RUNX3 protein expression resulting from methylation of RUNX3 promoter probably plays a role in the pathogenesis of AL and is of value in prognosis. No relationship between methylation of TIMP3 promoter and the pathogenesis of AL is observed.

To ensure the quality and safety of Panax notoginseng, a method for the simultaneous determination of 10 mycotoxins in Panax notoginseng was developed using ultra performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS). The sample was extracted with acetonitrile and purified by HLB multifunction cleanup column. The separation was performed on a Phenomenex Kinetex XB-C18 column by gradient elution using methanol and 5 mmol·L(-1) ammonium acetate as mobile phase. The targeted compounds were detected in MRM mode by mass spectrometry with electrospray ionization (ESI) source operated in both positive and negative ionization modes. The linear relationships of the 10 mycotoxins were good in their respective linear ranges. The correlation coefficients (r) ranged from 0.9981 to 1.0000. The LOQs of the 10 mycotoxins were between 0.15 and 8.6 μg·kg(-1). The average recoveries ranged from 73.8% to 107.0% with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 0.10%-10.9%. The results demonstrated that the proposed method was sensitive and accurate, and suitable for the mycotoxins quantification in Panax notoginseng.

A novel method was developed for the rapid determination of multi-indicators in corni fructus by means of near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy. Particle swarm optimization (PSO) based least squares support vector machine was investigated to increase the levels of quality control. The calibration models of moisture, extractum, morroniside and loganin were established using the PSO-LS-SVM algorithm. The performance of PSO-LS-SVM models was compared with partial least squares regression (PLSR) and back propagation artificial neural network (BP-ANN). The calibration and validation results of PSO-LS-SVM were superior to both PLS and BP-ANN. For PSO-LS-SVM models, the correlation coefficients (r) of calibrations were all above 0.942. The optimal prediction results were also achieved by PSO-LS-SVM models with the RMSEP (root mean square error of prediction) and RSEP (relative standard errors of prediction) less than 1.176 and 15.5% respectively. The results suggest that PSO-LS-SVM algorithm has a good model performance and high prediction accuracy. NIR has a potential value for rapid determination of multi-indicators in Corni Fructus.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of myeloperoxidase(MPO) in acute lungs injury of severe acute pancreatitis associated ascetic fluid. Methods Forty-five adult wistar rats were randomly assigned into the group of negative control (group C,n=15),the group of severe acute pancreatitis (group S,n=15) and the group of peritoneal injection (group E,n=15). The group C was cut peritoneum and flipped pancreases softly. In group S,3.5% sodium taurocholate was injected retrograde in pancreatic and bile duct to establish the model of severe acute pancreatitis,and the pancreatic homogenate and ascites of the group S was injected into abdominal cavity of group E rats. After animal model established,rats were killed at 3h,6h and 12h point. The blood of inferior vena cava was sucked for determination of amylase.The inferior lobe of left lung was cut for myeloperoxidase detection.And pathology was regularly done about pancreas and lungs. Results Interstitial edema,hemorrhage and infiltration of neutrophilic granulocyte and macrophage were observed in group S and E. At different time point,the amylase levels of blood and myeloperoxidase of lungs in group S and E were significantly higher than those of group C,and the increasing degree of group E was smaller than group S. Conclusion Acute lung injury can be induced by the severe acute pancreatitis associated ascetic fluid. The expression of myeloperoxidase of lungs was increased to induce acute lungs injury.The reason may be concerned with activation of granulocyte by severe acute pancreatitis associated ascetic fluid.

OBJECTIVETo establish a simple and rapid method based on diffuse reflectance NIR spectra to in-line monitor the blending process of Zhongsheng pill powder.
METHODZhongsheng pill powder consisted of Zhongsheng spray powder, artificial cowbezoar powder and bile arisaema powder. By means of a revolutionary miniature near-infrared analyzer mounted onto the blender, the powder homogeneity was determined in real time with noninterference. The moving block standard deviation (MBSD) method was used to identify the end point of blending process, providing real-time data and instant feedback about the blending course. Evaluation of blend uniformity was carried out by stratified in-process sampling, and the content of baicalin in samples was determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
RESULTThe results calculated through MBSD method were generally coincided with HPLC analysis. Blend homogeneity was assumed to be reached when the standard deviations between spectra approached 0.002, and RSD values of baicalin content in samples from six positions were lower than 5%. Moreover, stratified in-process sampling has significant influence on blending process when the powder loading volume was small.
CONCLUSIONBased on this study, NIR spectroscopy can be possibly extended to be applied in blending process of Zhongsheng pill powder, ensuring a remarkable saving of time and manpower employed and creating a reliable and efficient process measurement technology.
