Surgical resection remains the only curative option of treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma,but centrally located tumors remain problematic.Extended right or left hepatectomy removes 60％ to 85％ of the hepatic parenchyma and is associated with more hepatic failure.Mesohepatectomy,resection of central hepatic segments (Couinaud's segments Ⅳ,Ⅴ,Ⅷ) and leaving the right and left segments in situ,preserves more functional hepatic tissues than extended hepatectomy.Despite its technical demands,mesohepatectomy should be considered as an alternative treatment for central huge hepatic tumors.

Objective To investigate the change of the content of polysaccharides in crude and processed Fructus Corni,thus to approach the process mechanism of Fructus Corni.Methods The content of polysaccharides in the crude and processed Fructus Corni was determined by phenol-sulfuric acid method.Results After processing with wine,the content of polysaccharides of Fructus Corni decreased from 10.12 %(content of total polysaccharidesbeing 51.41 %) to 5.91 %(content of total polysaccharidesbeing 53.10 %),decreased by 41.60 %as compared with that in the crude Fructus Corni.Conclusion After processing with wine,the content of polysaccharides decreases markedly.The results provide certain evidence for approaching the process mechanism of Fructus Corni.

The infection caused by pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm has becoming one of the most urgent problems in hospital.Recent reports of possible mechanism of iron in biofilm formation were reviewed in this paper.The possible effects of iron on adsorption,microcolony formation,mature of colony and desorb were explained,and the prospect of clinical use of local iron or chelator spray was also reviewed here.

AIM:To compare the mutant prevention concentration(MPC)of linezolid and vancomycin against methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus(MRSA)and study the correlation between minimal inhibitory concentration(MIC)and MPC.METHODS:MICs and MPCs of two drugs against 35 MRSA clinical stains were determined by agar plates dilution method.The correlations between MIC and MPC were determined by linear regression.The ability to restrict the resistance was evaluated according the pharmacokinetics of two drugs.RESULTS:The MPCs of two drugs against MRSA were 16 and 8 ?g/mL and the MPC/MIC was 8.MPCs and MICs correlated poorly(R2 were 0.32 and 0.008,respectively).According to pharmacokinetics of two drugs,the concentration of linezolid was inside the MSW(mutant selective window)for the entire dosage interval,while the concentration of vancomycin exceeded the MPC for the most dosage interval.CONCLUSION:The capacity of vancomycin for restricting the selection of MRSA resistant mutants is stronger than that of linezolid.There is low correlation between MPC and MIC.

Objective: To observe the impact of vareniline tartrate on vascular endothelial function and inlfammatory factor releasing in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients with nicotine dependence after smoking withdrawal treatment.
Methods: We recruited the in-hospital ACS patients who were smoking ≥10 cigarettes/day for more than 10 years with at least moderate nicotine dependence, and randomly divided them into 2 groups: Varenicline group, the patients received oral medication for 2 weeks and Self withdrawal group, the patients without medication assistance.n=52 in each group. All patients received (10-30) min daily mission and consulting for quit smoking for 2 weeks. The basic information was recorded and blood levels of NO, IL-6 and ET-1 were compared before and after withdrawal treatment.
Results: Compared with they were before, after 2 weeks withdrawal treatment, in Varenicline group, blood levels of ET-1 decreased as (33.950 ± 1.439) ng/L vs (170.198 ± 12.602) ng/L and IL-6 decreased as (0.103 ± 0.020) ng/L vs (0.307 ± 0.051) ng/L; in Self withdrawal group, ET-1 decreased as (60.795 ±7 .036) ng/L vs (170.511 ± 12.374) ng/L, all P<0.05; while NO levels were similar,P>0.05. After treatment, ET-1 level in Varenicline group (33.950 ± 1.439) ng/L was lower than Self withdrawal group (60.795 ± 7.036) ng/L and IL-6 level in Varenicline group (0.103 ± 0.020) ng/L was also lower than Self withdrawal group (0.258 ± 0.042) ng/L, allP<0.05; while NO levels were similar between 2 groups,P>0.05.
Conclusion: Compared with self withdrawal, varenicline tartrate may effectively inhibit inlfammatory factor releasing in ACS patients with nicotine dependence, and therefore improve the vascular endothelial function.

The purpose of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation by intra-bone marrow injection (IBM-HSCT) is to facilitate the homing of HSC. It has been recently proven in many animal experiments that different kinds of donor cells could efficiently home and engraft into the bone marrow by IBM-HSCT, which led to the rapid hemopoietic and immune recovery of recipients, preventing the development of GVHD, inducing the donor-specific tolerance in allogeneic organ transplantation, and promoting the survival rate of recipients. In this review, the effect of IBM-BMT and IBM-UCBT, the application of IBM injection technique in the study on HSC's biological characteristics, and its prospect for clinical HSCT were summarized.

Objective To investigate the effect of expression of microRNA-27a(miR-27a) and microRNA-451(miR-451) in A2780/T cells and its relativity to multidrug resistance (MDR)1 mRNA inhibition by procyanidin. Methods Stem-loop PCR method was performed to evaluate the expression of miR-27a and miR-451 in use of procyanidin (0-40μmol/L) in 0-48 h in A2780/T cells. Additionally, over-expressing or interfecting microRNAs by using mimics or inhibitor of miR-27a and miR-451, the expression of MDR1 mRNA was assessed by RT-PCR in cells exposing to procyanidin. Results The expression of miR-27a and miR-451 was significant inhibited by procyanidin in both time- and concentration-dependency. Over-expressed MDR1 mRNA associated with miR-27a or miR-451 mimics was blocked by procyanidin, whereas there was no effect on down-expressed MDR1 mRNA associated with miR-27a or miR-451 inhibitor by procyanidin. Conclusion Procyanidin inhibits MDR1 mRNA expression by inhibiting miR-27a and miR-451 expression in A2780/T cells.

The traditional fermentation engineering experiment requires a reform on the experimental con-tents and teaching pattern. According to the production process of industrial enzymes, we set up a two-week comprehensive experiment. The students designed and prepared the experiment by themselves. Moreover, the pattern of self-management was used in the process and the experiment scores included the self-assess-ment and objective assessment. It was proved that the new teaching pattern increased the study interesting of students, inspired their initiative and trained their spirits of team cooperation. The teaching effect was im-proved markedly and good ideas are also put forward to solve the possible problem.

To explore the effects of infusion with human mesenchymal stem cells from bone marrow on bone marrow hematopoietic function and survival in mice with aplastic anemia (AA), immuno-mediated aplastic anemia mice model was established according to Yao's method. Thirty BALB/c female mice were divided into AA model group, MSC group and radiation group. In MSC group, 1 x 10(6) MSC was infused by intravenous injection at 3 days after establishment of model. The changes of blood count, the number of nuclear cells in a single thigh-bone, colony-forming units (CFU), pathological features of bone marrow and survival rate of mice were observed in all groups. The results showed that the number of white blood cells in peripheral blood of AA model group at day 7 after establishment of model was (0.65 +/- 0.05) x 10(9)/L, which was significantly lower than those in MSC group and radiation alone group, respectively. Pancytopenia was found in all three groups at day 10. At day 14 the pancytopenia was continued in AA model group while it was less severe in MSC and radiation groups. In MSC group the number of nucleated cells in single thigh bone and pathological slice as well as CFU-GM were significantly higher than those in AA model group, respectively. The survival rate of mice in MSC group was 80.0% which was higher than that of group in AA model (18.2%, p < 0.01). There were no significant differences between MSC group and radiation alone group in bone marrow hematopoiesis and survival rate. It is concluded that MSC infusion reduces the degree of bone marrow failure and improve survival of immuno-mediated AA mice model.
