Objective:To optimize the formula of metronidazole and borneol sustained-release films. Methods: The mass ratio of Rhizoma Bletillae polysaccharide and polyvinyl alcohol 124(PVA-124) and the dosage of glycerol and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose ( CMC-Na) as the influencing factors ,the appearance of films and the release rate of metronidazole at 0. 5h and 4h as the comprehen-sive evaluation indices, the formula of the film-forming materials was optimized by orthogonal test. Results:The mass ratio of Rhizoma Bletillae polysaccharide and PVA-124 was the key factor affecting the quality of the films. When the mass ratio of Rhizoma Bletillae pol-ysaccharide and PVA-124 was 20∶80, and the dosage of glycerol was 3. 5g and that of CMC-Na was 0. 14g, the appearance of the films was satisfied, the release rate of metronidazole at 0. 5h and 4h was 25. 17% and 69. 64%, respectively, and the average cumulative re-lease rate at 8h was over 90%. Conclusion:The films prepared by the optimized formula are flat, smooth, clean and moderately soft, which can not only remain the drug release characteristics of the films made by the original formula, but also exhibit the pharmacologi-cal effect of Rhizoma Bletillae.

Objective:To analyze the mutation characteristics of Kirsten rat sarcoma virus oncogene homology (KRAS) gene in patients with appendiceal adenocarcinoma and its relationship with the activity of Ras Raf Mitogen activated protein kinase/extracellular regulated protein kinase (MAPK/ERK) signaling pathway.Methods:A total of 41 patients with appendiceal adenocarcinoma who were treated in the Lishui Central Hospital from January 2014 to January 2020 were selected as the observation group, and 50 patients with Appendicitis who were operated at the same time were randomly selected as the control group. Clinical and follow-up data were collected, and the mutation of the KRAS gene in the patient′s tissue was measured using the snapshot method. The expression of key proteins in the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway in cancer tissue was measured using Western blotting (WB) assay. We compared the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with KRAS mutation and non KRAS mutation appendiceal adenocarcinoma.Results:The KRAS gene mutation rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (41.5% vs 10.0%), and the expression levels of p-ARAF/ARAF, p-MEK1/MEK1, and p-ERK1/ERK1 proteins were also higher than those in the control group. The differences between the groups were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The protein expression levels of p-ARAF/ARAF, p-MEK1/MEK1, p-ERK1/ERK1 in KRAS mutation patients in the observation group were significantly higher than those in non KRAS mutation patients. The proportion of stage IV, positive rates of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen (CA)199 and CA125 in KRAS mutation patients were higher than those in non KRAS mutation patients, and the survival time and progression free survival time were shorter than those in non KRAS mutation patients, with statistical significance (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The mutation rate of KRAS in appendix adenocarcinoma is high, and the activation of MAPK/ERK signaling pathway caused by KRAS mutation may play a role in the pathogenesis of appendix adenocarcinoma, which has the value of in-depth research.

To screen the interactive proteins with IBDV Gt VP2 protein from cDNA library of B Lymphoid cells of the bursa of Fabricius. The expression cDNA library plasmids was transformed to the yeast competent cells, which have the bait plasmid-Gt VP2. After testing for growth in synthetic complete medium lacking histidine and uracil and for production of beta-galactosidase (X-gal), we obtained 16 positive clones. We searched the gene sequences of positive clones in the NCBI website. The blast results showed that five positive clones were the gallus sequences. They were Gallus gallus breed mitochondrial DNA, O_G1cNAc transferase, Tumor protein p53 binding protein, Stathmin and Chondroitin sulfate Ga1NAcT-2, respectively. This study is helpful for the further identifying the receptors of IBDV in B Lymphoid cells of the bursa of Fabricius.

Objective:To investigate the impact of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) and C-reactive protein/albumin ratio (CAR) on the long-term survival of gastric cancer patients after surgery.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 136 gastric cancer patients admitted to Lishui Central Hospital from January 2015 to December 2017, who underwent radical surgery and were followed up for 5 years. Patients were divided into HER2 positive and HER2 negative groups based on HER2 immunohistochemical results, and into high CAR and low CAR groups based on the CAR mean value. The relationship between HER2 and CAR with clinicopathological characteristics of gastric cancer patients was analyzed. The postoperative tumor-free survival rate and overall survival rate were compared between the two groups of patients (HER2 positive group and HER2 negative group, as well as high CAR group and low CAR group). Cox regression analysis was used to identify independent prognostic factors for postoperative tumor recurrence, metastasis, and death in gastric cancer patients.Results:The proportion of HER2 positive patients with large tumor size, low differentiation, T 3-4 tumor invasion depth, lymph node metastasis, and vascular invasion was significantly higher than that of HER2 negative patients (all P<0.05). The proportion of high CAR patients with large tumor size, low differentiation, T 3-4 tumor invasion depth, lymph node metastasis, and vascular invasion was significantly higher than that of low CAR patients (all P<0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that HER2 negative patients had significantly higher 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year cumulative tumor-free survival rate and overall survival rate than HER2 positive patients, while low CAR patients had significantly higher 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year cumulative tumor-free survival rate and overall survival rate than high CAR patients (all P<0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified T 3-4 tumor invasion depth, lymph node metastasis, HER2 positivity, and high CAR expression as independent prognostic factors for postoperative tumor recurrence, metastasis, and death in gastric cancer patients (all P<0.05). HER2 positive gastric cancer patients had a 1.895-fold higher risk of postoperative tumor recurrence and metastasis than HER2 negative patients ( HR: 1.895, 95% CI: 1.245-4.229, P=0.034), while high CAR gastric cancer patients had a 1.769-fold higher risk of postoperative tumor recurrence and metastasis than low CAR patients ( HR: 1.769, 95% CI: 1.433-3.959, P=0.039). HER2 positive gastric cancer patients had a 2.145-fold higher risk of postoperative death than HER2 negative patients ( HR: 2.145, 95% CI: 1.378-4.589, P=0.028), while high CAR gastric cancer patients had a 1.926-fold higher risk of postoperative death than low CAR patients ( HR: 1.926, 95% CI: 1.564-3.853, P=0.025). Conclusions:HER2 and CAR are independent prognostic factors for postoperative tumor recurrence, metastasis, and death in gastric cancer patients. Gastric cancer patients with HER2 positivity and high CAR have a higher risk of postoperative tumor recurrence, metastasis, and death. This study has some limitations due to its small sample size and single-center design, which may introduce some bias. Future multicenter and large-scale studies are needed to confirm the results of this study.
