Useful pharmacodynamic changes occur when some Chinese medicine are used together with some Western medicine, namely enhanced curative effect, lowered adverse reactions, reduced dosages, shortened treatment courses, enlarged indications scope, improved compliance of treatment and rational medication, which could be explored to provide scientific bases for further improving diagnosis and treatment levels and rational use of drugs.

We conducted complete competition market experiment in the classroom,meanwhile simulated market transactions,and at the end of the experiment taught the experiment theory and economics theory.After the class we carried out a survey to investigate the necessity of teaching methods and the help of theoretical understanding.It was found that the experimental results of the classroom experiment were quite robust compared with the theoretical predictions of the fully competitive market,and the market operating efficiency was also higher.Students affirmed the necessity of experiment teaching and thought that experiment was helpful to understanding the learning theory.

In order to investigate the effects of mouse CTLA4Ig gene-modified dendritic cells (DCs) on the survival of the corneal allografts in rats, the plasmid PG\CTLA4Ig was transfected into DCs of F344 rats mediated by Lipofectamine 2000. The expression of CTLA4Ig was detected by immunofluorescent microscopy. The effects of donor DCs on the proliferation of T cells in Lewis rats (recipients) were tested by by CCK8. Corneal transplantation was performed from F344 rats to Lewis rats. The DCs modified with CTLA4Ig gene were injected into the Lewis rats on the day 0 and 3 after transplantation. The movement of the DCs after modification in vivo was observed by immunofluorescent microscopy, and the survival of corneal allografts was evaluated by Holland criterion. The results showed that the CTLA4Ig-modified DCs could restrain the proliferation of allogenetic T cells. The CTLA4Ig-modified DCs prolonged survival of corneal allografts. (P < 0.01). It was suggested that the injection of CTLA4Ig gene-modified DCs could obviously inhabit the allograft rejection and prolong the survival of corneal allografts.

Advanced non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)accounts for all NSCLC 45% . In recent years,chemotherapy combined with radiotherapy has become a new standard for NSCLC. On NSCLC radiothera-py and chemotherapy(CRCT),radiation total dose,fractionation method,different chemotherapy combined with radiotherapy have many details in the efficiency and toxicity tolerance,which are still in the exploration.

Galectin-9 is a novel eosinophil chemoattractant,which belong to Galectin family.Galectin-9exhibits a variety of biological functions,such as cell differentiation,maturation,adhesion and aggregation,cell chemotaxis,activity,and cell death.Galectin-9 may play important roles in the development of acute inflammation as well as chronic inflammation associated with allergies,autoimmune diseases,infectious processes.This review summarizes the advances in Galectin-9 study.

Radiotherapy is the main treatment for nasopharyngeal carcinoma .The intensity modulated ra-diation therapy is one of the most ideal radiotherapy technology for nasopharyngeal carcinoma .Local recurrence and distant metastasis are still the main reasons responded to the radiation fails .Therefore,chemoradiotherapy has become the most recommended treatment for nasopharyngeal carcinoma ( NPC) ,and the synchronous chemoradio-therapy is a widely accepted joint model .Neoadjuvant chemotherapy shows significant advantages comparing to concurrent chemoradiotherapy in reducing the adverse reactions ,while it is uncertain whether the follow -up ma-intenance chemotherapy can improve total survival .The understanding of targeted drugs in chemoradiotherapy is still in early stage,but the result is worth looking forward to .In addition,novel treatments and concepts ,including immune therapy and biological chemotherapy ,are attracting more and more attention .

Radiotherapy plays an important role in the treatment of lung cancer .Radiation-induced lung injury is a major complication in the process of radiotherapy .It is of great significance for the treatment and prog-nosis of the diseases to predict the early stage of radiation -induced lung injury in the clinical treatment .TGF-β1(transforming growthfactor-β1) can induce some inflammatory cells including lymphocytes ,neutrophils,mon-ocytes ect,contributing to the formation of fibrosis .Plasma TGF-β1 shows different levels followed different sta-ges of radiation-induced lung injury .This article reviews the value of cytokine TGF -β1 in predicting the radia-tion-induced lung injury over various aspects such as singlely used ,combined with radiation physics and other cytokines,and genomics.
