1.Applications of functional near-infrared spectroscopy in clinical pediatric
Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2014;29(18):1363-1367
Functional near-infrared spectroscopy is a non-invasive optical brain function detection technology,which can do multi-point measurement of changes on cerebral cortical area corresponding to the oxygenation of the blood hemoglobin and deoxygenated hemoglobin concentration,and then reflect the state of brain cortex function.Its greatest advantage is to allow the subjects head moving in a certain range,especially suitable for children.At present this technology could be applied to clinical pediatric,such as epilepsy,autism,attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder,neonatal disease,neurosurgery and cardiovascular surgery,etc.Functional near-infrared spectroscopy technology will have more applications in the field of research on brain function.
2.Antiplatelet agent resistance and prevention and treatment of stroke
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2013;21(5):378-384
A large number of studies have confirmed that antiplatelet agents reduce the relative risk of stroke,myocardial infarction,or death by an average of 22%.However,many patients still have thrombotic events during the period of taking anti-platelet agents,and this is called anti-platelet agent resistance.Its incidences reported are very different.The incidence of aspirin is 3% to 85%,and that of clopidogrel is 28% to 44%.The exact cause of antiplatelet agent resistance remains unclear.It may be associated with several factors,including decreased drug bioavailability,genetic polymorphisms,activation of other platelet activation pathways,and increased circulating platelets.Currently,a variety of laboratory methods have been used to detect antiplatelet agent resistance,its criteria are different.In addition,the response measures of antiplatelet agent resistance also have no conclusion,and this has brought greater difficulties for the prevention and treatment of stroke.

Recombinant antibodies have become the major growth trends in biotech industry following their success on therapeutic application and good revenue. But the low level of mammalian expression and laggard fermentation process constrained the development of antibody industry in China. The global advances of antibody industry were reviewed, compared the respective advantage between dihydrofolate reductase and glutamine synthetase expression system, continuous perfusion and fed-batch processes were compared. Finally, based on the knowledge and experience of antibody expression and fermentation, the suitable strategy of antibody industrialization, e.g. the fermentation model and scale, should depend on the comprehensive consideration of entrepreneur for the productivity, manufacturing capacity and market revenue. It may be a wise choice to use glutamine synthetase expression system and continuous perfusion process for the need of Chinese antibody industrialization.

In this study, immunotoxin (IT) was prepared by conjugating BAC5 and CT with SPDP. The effects of IT on NPC and its mechanisms were explored using double labeled with radioactive nuclides, immunography and electron microscope technique in vivo and in vitro. The specific concentration of BAC5 in the tumor area showed. The radioactivity rate of tumor/nontumor (T/NT) was up to 10.26. IT had cytotoxic effects both on the cultured CNE-2 cell line and tumor multicell spheroides. In vivo, the preliminary result indicated that IT also had a inhibitory action on the nude mice models bearing human NPC (Reported in another article). Under electron microscope, the necrosis and apoptosis of tumor cells were found. The membranes of most tumor cells were found intacted not or corrosined, some of them had the character of apoptosis, including reduce of tumor cells membrane villi, condensation of cytoplasm and pyknosis or cleavage of nuclear. There were many of apoptosis bodies, which were occasionally phagocytosed by tumor cells. The infiltration of immunocytoes in tumor tissue could be seen. The results indicated that BAC5 can specifically combine with NPC cells and BAC5-CT has the inhibitory effect on NPC in vitro and in vivo, mechanism of which may be related to the effects that ‘warhead' CT dissolute the membrane of tumor cells directly, or/and IT promote the infiltration of immunocytoes so as to induce the apoptosis of tumor cell.
