Methods Using cell culture technique, mouse spleen lymphocytes and peritoneal macrophages were culture with superantigens of streptococcus and serum of Rubia yunnanensis. Lymphocytes proliferation stimulated by superantigens of streptococcus measured by MTT assay. NO level in mouse peritoneal macrophages affected by Rubia yunnanensis at different concentrations were determined and compared. Results Serum of Rubia yunnanensis significantly inhibit the proliferation of lymphocytes stimulated by superantigens of streptococcus, compared with normal control. NO content of macrophages culture in Rubia yunnanensis extract group were lower than those of control. In these tests, the effect of the extract by alcohol is more obvious than that of extract by water. Conclusions Rubia yunnanensis extract has effect in inhibiting immune function and anti-infect activity, it could be applied in clinical practice for immunoregulation and treatment of psoriasis.

Objective　To summarize the phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of mitochondrial combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency type 1 (COXPD1), and to improve the clinicians' awareness of this mitochondrial encephalomyopathy. Methods　The clinical characteristics, physical examination, laboratory examination and other data of a child with COXPD1 were analyzed retrospectively. The diagnosis was confirmed by clinical whole exon sequencing and high-precision mitochondrial genome full-length PLUS gene detection, and the phenotype and genotype were analyzed by reviewing relevant literature. Results　A one-year and five-month-old boy mainly presented with hyperlactacidemia and abnormal liver function. Clinical whole exon sequencing showed that the child had homozygous variation of c. 688G>A(p.G230S) in the GFM1 gene. Sanger sequencing verified that the variation was respectively inherited from the parents of the child (both were heterozygous) with the autosomal recessive inheritance pattern. The high-precision mitochondrial genome full-length PLUS detection also did not find pathogenic mutations related to clinical phenotypes. The child was diagnosed with COXPD1. After "cocktail" therapy and liver protection therapy, the patient's condition improved. Conclusions　The phenotype of COXPD1 is complicated and variable, mainly liver type and brain type. The mutation of GFM1 gene affects mitochondrial translation system function, and early gene detection is helpful for definite diagnosis.

Lysimachiae Herba and Desmodii Styracifolii Herba are common traditional Chinese medicines for treating lithiasis. Both of them have efficacies of clearing heat, diuresis and eliminating calculi. However, there are some differences in their clinic applications. The former is mainly used to treat hepatolithiasis, gallstones, jaundice, stranguria and gout; Whereas the latter is mainly used to treat urinary calculus. In this paper, the pharmacological effects of Lysimachiae Herba and Desmodii Styracifolii Herba on removing calculus, choleresis, anti-inflammation and oxidation resistance were compared and analyzed based on document retrieval. In conclusion, both of them show the preventive and therapeutic effects on kidney stones and gallstones. Particularly, Desmodii Styracifolii Herba has a better effect in treating the kidney stones, while Lysimachiae Herba has a better effect in treating cholesterol gallstones.

Objective:To observe the effects of a preparation of chinese traditional medicine Zengshengping (ZSP) in the treatment of oral lichen planus (OLP).Methods:200 patients with OLP were randomly divided into 2 groups with 100 in each.The patients in one group were treated with ZSP and those in another with levomisolum.The patients were followed up for two years.Results:The total effective rate in ZSP or levomisolum treated group were 90% and 62% respectively (P<0.025).Conclusion:ZSP is more effective in the treatment of OLP than levomisolum.

50 000 bp)was extracted from frozen gastric cancer tissue and their corresponding normal samples and used for RLGS assay.The genome DNA was digested by methylation-sensitive restriction enzyme Not Ⅰ, and labeled by radioisotope ~(32)p,then separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis and autoradiography. Experimental conditions for each step were optimized step by step.DNA fragment sequences for the dots on scanning profile were identified according to the human RLGS database.Results RLGS assay was set up and used to get the RLGS profiles of the representative tested samples successfully.These profiles can display more than 1 200 available dots averagely,the profiles of high quality DNA sample can display more than 1 800 dots which is the average level at an excellent RLGS lab,discrepant dots which had weaken or enhanced signals and their sequence information were obtained.The result can be reproduced.Conclusion The RLGS assay is established,stabilized for detection of DNA methylation of tissue samples.

Objective To explore the role of Tbx3 gene in the occurrence and development of breast cancer. Methods 44 cases of the fresh breast carcinoma tissues and peritumor tissues were collected individually, the gene expression of Tbx3 was detected by RT PCR and the relationship between the changes of Tbx3 gene expression and the related clinicopathological factors of breast carcinoma was investigated. Results Obviously, the expression level of Tbx3 gene in breast carcinoma tissues was higher than that in the peritumor tissues. Furthermore, Tbx3 gene expression level in breast carcinoma tissues was not associated with the tumor size and ages of patients. However, the histological grading of breast carcinoma, tumor infiltrating degree, TNM stagings, and axillary lymph node metastasis were positively correlated with the expression level of Tbx3 gene. Conclusion Tbx3 gene with high expression may promote the occurrence and development of breast cancer and it is also likely a symbol of crucial changes in the development of breast cancer

Objective To investigate the effect of photodynamic therapy with chlorin e6 (Ce6) and 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) on mouse model of malignant melanoma. Methods The mouse model of malignant melanoma was established by injecting 0.1 ml A-375 cells (about 2?10 6 cells) under the right hind leg of BALB/c-6 mice,and that the yellowish white node appears at injection site proves the successful model. Twenty-four of 27 successful mouse models were irradiated at the tumor site with semiconductor laser (wavelength 652 nm) with a total dose of 100 J/cm 2 . Before laser exposure,the mice were treated with 10% 5-ALA by topical compress for 2 h or 7.5 mg/kg Ce6 by intraperitoneal injection for 1 hour or 5-ALA topical application combined with intraperitoneal injection of Ce6 (n=6 in each group). Another six mice as control only underwent PDT. One week after PDT,the mice were killed,the tumor mass was peeled off and weighed,whether the metastasis occurred or not was detected,and the tumor,liver,spleen,lung,kidney were sent to histopathological examination. Results The tumor weight in 5-ALA group,Ce6 group,and the combined group had significant difference as compared with control group (P0.05). The dehydration and scab formation and necrosis could be seen in tumor sites at 1 week after PDT. The cell collapse and necrosis,subdermal thrombosis and cell outline clouding could be observed by histopathological examination. Metastasis of melanoma were found in 5-ALA group,Ce6 group,and the combined group. Conclusion PDT with Ce6 and 5-ALA could kill the malignant melanoma effectively in animal experiment but could not affect the metastasis of melanoma.

● AIM: To investigate the sequential changes of HIF-1 α Protein and mRNA in hypoxic bovine retinal microvessel endothelial cells.● METHODS: The bovine retinal microvessel endothelial cells were cultured in normoxic and CoCl2-induced hypoxic conditions respectively. Expressions of HIF-1 α Protein were measured with immunohistochemical staining, and RT-PCR was used to determine the HIF-1 α mRNA.● RESULTS: HIF-1 α began to increase 1h after hypoxia,and reached the peak at 4h. After 16h, it declined significantly. Compared with the normoxic group, the expression of HIF-1 α protein in the hypoxic groups had significant difference (P＜0.01), and HIF-1 α mRNA expression was unchanged under hypoxia.● CONCLUSION: HIF-1 α participates in the hypoxic procedures in retinal microvessel endothelial cells, and hypoxia induce time-dependent changes of HIF-1 α protein expression, which is not modulated on the transcription level. Analysis of HIF-1 α expression revealed a temporal and spatial changes with regard to the hyperoxic repression, indicating that HIF-1 may play a major role in the development of retinopathy of prematurity and other ischemic retinal disorders such as diabetic retinopathy.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the direction of examination reform of licensed pharmacists,and to provide a basis for setting up the courses for pharmaceutical major in higher vocational college. METHODS:By the method of literature analysis and comprehensive analysis,examination points and their distribution,the 7th edition of Pharmacy Expertise (Ⅱ) was analyzed in-depth in terms of the change of exam outline,score distribution and the contents of test papers,correlation between teaching ma-terials and scores of test papers,key and difficult points. RESULTS:The exam outline of the 7th edition of Pharmacy Expertise (Ⅱ)was changed from 7 systems into 16 chapters;each chapter contained 3 parts:pharmacological action and clinical evaluation, medication monitoring and clinical application of commonly used drugs;there were most examination points in pharmacological ac-tion and clinical evaluation which were important points. The quantity of test questions was reduced,but choice questions were add-ed,mainly on medication monitoring. The 5th,8th,10th chapters accounted for the most points in the test papers,and ratios of page numbers to points in chapters 1-2,4,9,and 14-16 were all lower than average level. The pharmacological action and clinical evaluation were key points,and the clinical application of commonly used drugs were difficult pints,which emphasized on practi-cal skills in pharmaceutical care. CONCLUSIONS:Licensed pharmacist examination is closely related to clinical practice,which re-flects the characteristics ofexamination based on practiceandpriority to practice,and provides reference for setting up pharma-cy courses.
