Objective Antiangiogenesis therapy has been shown to prolong survival for patients with malignant tumor .However the present study has not been observed the clinical benefit of antiangiogenesis therapy combination with chemotherapy treated with gastric canc-er.Human recombinant vascular endothelial inhibition (endostar) as a multi-targeted anti-angiogenesis drug, the mechanism is different from other Antiangiogenesis drugs.It can block different pathways of signal transduction to inhibit angiogenesis .This study aimed to observe the effect of combined application of endostar and paclitaxel on biological behavior of gastric cancer cell lines . Methods MMT assay and Tr-answell invasion assay were respectively used to examine the inhibition rate of cell growth and invasion ability when cells were treated with va-rious concentrations of endostar and paclitaxel alone or in combination.The protein expressions of VEGF,MMP-2 and MMP-9 were examined by Western blot. Results Endostar or paclitaxel effectively inhibited the growth of MGC803 cells and the in vitro invasion of MGC803 cells in a concentration-dependent manner.The proliferation and invasion ability of combined treatment with endostar and paclitaxel was significantly lower than that of endostar or paclitaxel alone (P<0.05).Compared with con-trol group, the VEGF,MMP-2 and MMP-9 protein expressions were de-creased in experimental groups ( P <0.05).Compared with paclitaxel group, the VEGF, MMP-2 and MMP-9 protein expressions were relatively reduced in combination groups (P<0.05). Conclusion Endostar combined with paclitaxel can suppress the growth and invasion of MGC803 cells, and the decreasing VEGF , MMP-2 and MMP-9 expressions may be involved in the mechanism .

Objective To explore the clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of congenital disorder of glycosylation type 1a (CDG-Ⅰa), a rare inherited metabolic disease. Methods The clinical data and the gene detection results of one case of CDG-Ia which was discovered because the case had encephalopathy and hepatopathy were retrospectively analyzed. The related literatures were reviewed. Results Male infant suffered with face and trunk rash, motor development retardation, malnutrition, cheek fat plump, low limbs muscle tone, and bilateral crater nipple at 3 months old. Abnormal liver function and mild renal impairment were found after examination. The development quotient was low. Head MRI showed that bilateral frontal and temporal sulcus widening, and cerebellar atrophy. Urinary organic acids, amino acids, carnitine, and biotin activities were normal. Gene sequencing revealed that there were two heterozygous mutations, c.430T>C (p.F144L) and c.713G>C (p.R238P), in the PMM2 gene. The diagnosis of CDG-Ⅰa was confirmed. Both of the infant's parents were healthy, and each of them carries a pathogenic mutation. The infant had an elder brother who had mental disorder and died for liver and kidney function damage and hydronephrosis at 8 months old. Conclusion CDG-Ⅰa is an autosomal recessive disease. For infants with unexplained multiple organ damage, especially combined with intelligent and motor development retardations, strabismus, nipple retraction, and cerebellar atrophy, the possibility of CDG-Ⅰa should be considered. Gene detection of PMM2 can help the diagnosis.
