Objective To study the expressions of casein kinase 2α(Ck2α),β-catenin, survivin in ovarian cancer tissue and analyze the relationships between them, and to explore the clinical application value. Methods Immunohistochemistry staining was used to detect the expressions of Ck2α,β-catenin and survivin in 8 cases of simple ovarian cysts tissue,8 cases of ovarian benign tumor tissue and 29 cases of ovarian cancer tissue;the correlations of the expressions of Ck2α,β-catenin,survivin in ovarian cancer tissue and their associations with the clinicopathologic characteristics were analyzed.Results The expression levels of Ck2α,β-catenin and survivin in ovarian cancer tissue were significantly higher than those in simple ovarian cysts tissue and ovarian benign tumor tissue(P<0.05);the Ck2αexpression level in ovarian cancer tissue was positively corelated with the expression levels ofβ-catenin and survivin(r=0.438,r=0.479,P<0.05);the expression levels of Ck2α,β-catenin and survivin in low-medium differentiation group were significantly higher than those in high differentiation group (P<0.05);the expression levels of Ck2α,β-catenin and survivin in stagesⅡandⅢ group were significantly higher than those in stage Ⅰ group(P<0.05).Conclusion The protein expression levels of Ck2α,β-catenin and survivin are increased in ovarian cancer tissue, and three are positive corelations between them;Ck2α,β-catenin and survivin may play an important role in the occurrence and development of ovarian cancer;the combined detection of them has important clinical value.

The chemical constituents of Safflower injection were isolated and purified by polyamide, silica gel, Sephadex LH-20, ODS column chromatographies and preparative HPLC. As a result, sixteen compounds have been isolated. Based on the spectral data analysis, their structures were elucidated as scutellarin (1), kaempferol-3-O-β-rutinoside(2), hydroxysafflor yellow A(3), rutin (4), coumalic acid(5), adenosine(6), syringoside(7), (3E)-4-(4'-hydroxyphenyl)-3-buten-2-one(8), (8Z)-decaene-4, 6-diyne-1-Oβ-D-glucopyranoside(9), 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (10), (2E, 8E) -tetradecadiene-4, 6-diyne-1, 12, 14-triol-1-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (11), kaem-pferol-3-O-β-sophorose (12), uridine (13), roseoside (14), cinnamic acid (15), and kaempferol (16). Compounds 1,2,7,9,11 and 12 were isolated from the Safflower injection for the first time. The anti-platelet aggregation activities of the isolated compounds were assayed. The results indicated all tested compounds exhibited potent activity except for 5, while 2, 3, 9 and 12 showed strong activity against platelet aggregation.

OBJECTIVETo study the chemical constituents in seeds of Helicia nilagirica.

METHODThe ethanol extract was seperated by petroleum ether, dichloromethane, n-butanol in sequence, then isolated by silica gel column chromatography. The structures were identified and elucidated by physicochemical properties and spectral analysis.

RESULTFive compounds were isolated from the dichloromethane and n-butanol extracts, identified as p-hydroxybenzaldehyde (1), p-hydroxybenzoic acid (2), gallic acid (3), helicide (4), 4-formylpymyl-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (5).

CONCLUSIONAll the compounds except IV were isolated from the plant for the first time. The compounds I, II and III were isolated from the genus Helicia for the first time.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the status of vaccination against hepatitis B among postgraduate students of medical institutions of higher education in Guangzhou.

METHODSHBsAg and anti-HBs in the serum samples from 1139 postgraduate students were detected by ELISA. Data on hepatitis B vaccine inoculation were investigated by using a questionnaire. Statistical analyses were performed by using SAS software.

RESULTSThe HBsAg positive rate among the 1139 postgraduate students was 2.90 percent. The HBsAg positive rates in hepatitis B vaccine inoculated (1.15 percent) and non- inoculated (21.69 percent) postgraduate students were significantly different (x2=119.11, P<0.0001). The positive rates of HBsAb between the two groups were also significantly different (x2=62.05, P<0.0001). Among the hepatitis B vaccine inoculated students, 17.31 percent were negative for HBsAb. The positive rate of HBsAb among those inoculated the vaccine within the past 3 years was higher than that among those inoculated the vaccine earlier (0-3 years vs. 4-6 year, P=0.0089) (0-3 years vs. 7-9 years, P=0.0172) (0-3 years vs. >9 years, P=0.0474). The positive rate of HBsAb among the students who received hepatitis B vaccine booster dose was higher than that of the students who did not receive any booster dose (P=0.0093).

CONCLUSIONWith the increase of ages, the effect of vaccination for hepatitis B decreased. Male populations may be more susceptible to hepatitis B virus than female. It is necessary to monitor HBsAb levels for those who were inoculated with HBV vaccine more than 3 years ago to give booster dose in time to prevent HBV infection.
