Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) may be defined as mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract,and the application of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor imatinib mesylate has changed the treatment style of the tumor.The surgical treatment is the only choice for the GIST patients before imatinib era,but now the individualized treatment combined with target therapy,surgery and laparoscope surery becomes the mainstay.The paper focus on the new development of preoperative biopsy,laparoscope surery,imatinib neoadjuvant and imatinib therapeutic effect evaluation in recent years.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is the most common gastrointestinal mesenchymal tumors, mainly due to the onset of the proto-oncogene receptor tyrosine kinase, or platelet-derived growth factor receptor gene activating mutations. Molecular targeted therapy drug of imatinib mesylate inhibit KIT, platelet-derived growth factor receptor aloha (PDGFRA) gene tyrosine kinase activity, which is effective in patients with advanced GIST. However, a growing number of studies have found the presence of imatinib mesylate in primary and secondary drug resistance in the treatment of GIST process. With the in-depth study of the physiological function and mechanism of action of non-coding RNA in recent years, making it gradually realized extensive regulation of non-coding RNA gene expression, which occurs in tumor development, invasion and metastasis, drug resistance and other processes plays an important role. Non-coding RNA has the potential to explore GIST pathogenesis and resistance mechanisms to provide new ideas and direction.

Objective To study the characteristics of cell engraftment in mice at a lower dose under nonlethal radiated condition.Methods A syngeneic C57BL/6 mouse model,transplanted with 1 × 107 bone marrow cells and exposed to 2.5 Gy whole body irradiation (WBI),was selected to study the chimerism of cells from green fluorescent protein positive (GFP +) transgenic mice.The control group was injected with GFP + cells without receiving irradiation.In addition,an allogenic transplantation model of BALB/c mice was also investigated which was infused by GFP + cells from C57BL/6 mice.The engraftment of bone marrow-derived cells (BMDCs) was detected by immunohistochemistry in bone marrow,liver,lung,small intestine and spleen.Results The transplanted bone marrow cells successfully grafted in the haematopoietic tissues from syngeneic GFP transgenic mice.The transplanted GFP+ cells were also detected in the non-haematopoietic tissues,such as the small intestine,liver,spleen and lung,after irradiation.However,a lethal dose irradiation of 8 Gy was required to establish successful chimerism in allogeneic transplantation model by infusing the bone marrow cells from C57BL/6 mice to BALB/c mice.Conclusions Bone marrow-derived cells can be successfully grafted into various recipient tissues receiving a 2.5 Gy dose of radiation in syngeneic mice,but not in allogeneic mice.This nonlethal model may help to further study the plasticity and mechanism of bone marrow-derived cells in tissue repair and regeneration after radiation injury.

OBJECTIVE:To study the spectrum-effect relationship of the antipyretic effect of Radix Bupleuri injection. METH-ODS:HPLC method was used to establish the fingerprint of Radix Bupleuri injection. The antipyretic effect of 10 batches of Radix Bupleuri injection on fever rats induced by dried yeast were determined respectively. The fingerprint peaks were screened,along with the temperature value of different time points(0,10,15,30,40,55,70 min). The principal components were extracted by principal component method and the indirect relationship between the fingerprint and antipyretic effect was analyzed,depending on the principal component correlation coefficient matrix. RESULTS:There were 39 common peaks in fingerprint(similarity>0.85), No. 8,12,14,19,26,31,34,35 and 39 common peaks with large peak area were included in the study. Four principal compo-nents were extracted by principal component analysis(87% of total variant). First principal component showed that the active com-ponents of the 12th peak may be related to the antipyretic effect of 6 to 13 hours. The second principal component showed that the active components of the 26th peak may be related to the antipyretic effect of 0.5 to 5 hours. The third principal component showed that the similar effect of the active components could be caused by 34th,35th and 39th peaks. The fourth principal component sug-gested that there were some similarities between the 14th and the 31st peaks. CONCLUSIONS:Radix Bupleuri injection have obvi-ous improvement for fever rats. There is certain corresponding relation between HPLC fingerprint and antipyretic effect of Radix Bu-pleuri injection .

Objective; To investigate the expression levels of matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) and matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) in dentin of healthy adults under different adhesion conditions, and to provide the basis for improving the binding effect of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) inhibitors in clinic. Methods; A total of 20 adult freshlyextracted molars were collected and ground into dentin powder under liquid nitrogen cooling. The oral condition was simulated. The dentin was treated with self-etching bonding (Single Bond Universal) and totaletching bonding (35% phosphate gel +Adpter Single Bond 2). The dentin without any treatment was regarded as negative control group, the dentin treated with 10% phosphoric acid (self-etching bonding) or 10% phosphoric acid+ 35% phosphate gel (total-etching bonding) was regarded as positive control group, the dentin treated with Single Bond Universal (self-etching bonding) or 35% phosphate gel+Adper Single Bond 2 (total-etching bonding) was regarded as blank control group; the dentin pretreated with the MMPs inhibitors chlorhexidine (CHX) and minocycline (MI) during the bonding process respectively was regarded as CHX group and MI group, and the dentin treated with 10 % sodium hypochlorite was regarded as aging group; on the basis of aging group, the dentin treated with CHX and MI was regarded as CHX aging group and MI aging group. Gelatin zymography was used to perform the polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis; after incubating, staining and decoloring, the bands were analyzed by gel image analysis system, and the expression levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in dentin were calculated. Results: Under the condition of self-etching bonding, compared with blank control group, the expression levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in dentin in CHX group were decreased (P<0. 05), and the expression levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in the dentin powder in MI group were decreased (P<0. 05); compared with aging blank control group, the expression levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in dentin in CHX aging group were decreased (P<0. 05), and the expression levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in dentin in MI aging group were decreased (P<0. 05). Under the condition of total-etching bonding, compared with blank control group, the expression levels of MMP-2 in dentin in CHX group and MI group were decreased (P<0. 05); compared with aging blank control group, the expression levels of MMP-2 in dentin in CHX aging group and MI aging group were decreased (P<0. 05). Conclusion; In the process of dentin bonding, CHX and MI could slow down the enzymatic reaction and improve the bonding strength by decreasing the expression levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9.
