1.Advances on research of angiocentric glioma
Basic & Clinical Medicine 2009;29(11):1224-1227
Angiocentric Glioma has been newly identified as an epilepsy associated tumory. Up to now, reported cases are still scarce. The tumor causes drug-resistant epilepsy. On histological findings, monomorphous bipolar tumor cells are arranged around vessels. Imaging studies show that the tumor is diffused or rimlike hyperintensity on T1-weighted SE sequences and a stalklike extension to the ventricle on T2-weighted sequences. The World Health Organization listed this new entity in its fourth edition of the WHO classification of tumors of the central nervous system published in 2007.

Cancer Research and Clinic 2013;25(10):711-713
microRNAs (miRNAs) related to the recurrence and metastasis of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in recent years have made important progress.The authors search the clinical researches related to the link between the miRNA and the recurrence and metastasis of postoperative NSCLC on PubMed.The clinical studies produced contradictory data.miRNA differentially expressed in lung cancer based on their data.Some but not all suggested that the miRNA is associated with the metastasis and recurrence of NSCLC,suggesting the miRNA could be a potential therapeutic targets for therapy of lung cancers.However,most studies are still at the screening stage,which is lack of a large group of patients,especially in random,controlled study to verify the miRNA predict recurrence transfer orientation or prognosis,which can be the direction for the practice of clinical trials in the future.

Mycotoxins,secondary metabolites produced by certain fungi,have become one of the most harmful factors that affect the clinical safety of medicinal herbs that probably can be contaminated by harmful toxins generated from fungi in the whole process from planting to clinical use. Therefore,more toxicological research of mycotoxins,a better knowledge of the pathogenesis and quick detection with sensitivity and accuracy will play an important role in targeted therapy of poisoning by mycotoxins and early warning . In this paper,the current status of mycotoxin contamination in medicinal herbs was ana?lyzed,and the progress of toxicological study on common contaminants was reviewed. In view of the high toxicity of toxins,the strategy of ″Prevention First″ is highly desirable. Hence,the development of rapid detection of typical mycotoxins was systematically discussed. The review was intended to provide ref?erence for ensuring clinical safe administration of medicinal herbs and for reducing the risk of mycotoxin poisoning.
