BACKGROUND: Fetal microchimerism is a kind of stem cells which comes from fetus in pluripara. The research on fetal microchimerism is a hotspot because it may affect the health condition of pluripara.OBJECTIVE: To introduce the methods of how to detect fetal microchimerism, and the function of fetal microchimerism during disease and tissue repair of the mother.METHODS: Fetal microchimerism was used as a key word, and papers published before 2011-05-20 were retrieved in PubMed. Repetitive papers were eliminated.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Totally 655 papers were retrieved, and finally 26 were reviewed. There are several methods used for fetal microchimerism detecting, and fetal microchimerism may pay an important role in the pathomechanism of pluripara autoimmune diseases, cancer and tissue repair.

Objective: To optimize the extraction technology of Panax notoginseng and Scrophulariae radix from Rupixiao granule.Methods: With the dry extract rate and transfer rates of ginsenoside Rg1, ginsenoside Rb1 and harpagoside as the comprehensive index, the orthogonal design was adopted to investigate the effects of the amount and concentration of ethanol, extracting duration and times on the extraction technology.The contents of ginsenoside Rg1, ginsenoside Rb1 and harpagoside were determined by HPLC.Results: The optimal extraction technology was extracted twice with 8-fold amount of 60% ethanol with 2 h per time.The transfer rate of ginsenoside Rg1, ginsenoside Rb1 and harpagoside was (79.4%±1.56%), (42.62%±0.68%) and (44.89%±0.58%)(n=3), respectively.The dry extract rate was (20.99%±0.411%).Conclusion: The optimized extraction technology is stable and feasible, which can be used for extracting Panax notoginseng and Scrophulariae radix from Rupixiao granule.

Objective:To optimize the formula of film-forming materials for compound rhizoma corydalis plastics. Methods:Poly-vinyl alcohol 124 (PVA124) and bletilla striata gum were selected as the film-forming materials. The amounts of PVA 124, bletilla striata gum, glycerol and absolute ethanol were used as the influencing factors in an orthogonal test with the composite score of film-forming time and appearance as the indices to screen out the best composition of film-forming materials. Results:The best composition of film-forming materials was as follows:8 g PVA 124, 1 g bletilla striata gum, 2 ml glycerol and 15 ml ethanol. Conclusion:The op-timized film-forming materials can be used for the preparation of compound rhizoma corydalis plastics.

Objective:To research the anti-dysmenorrhea effect of different extracts of Rupixiao granules. Methods:The anti-dys-menorrhea effect of different extracts of Rupixiao granules was studied by writhing test induced by oxytocin in mice. Results:Compared with the model group, the extracts of Rupixiao granules could reduce the writhing times induced by oxytocin significantly (P<0. 05,P<0. 01 or P<0. 001), and the water-soluble extract showed the best effect (P<0. 001) without significant difference when compared with the positive control group(P>0. 05). Conclusion:The water-soluble parts of Rupixiao granules have significant anti-dysmenor-rhea effect.

Objective To explore the role of chromokinesin KIF4A in gastric cancer cell invasion using gastric cancer cells SGC-7901 and chromokinesin KIF4A deficient gastric cancer cells (SGC-shKIF4A).Methods Expression levels of KIF4A in controlling gastric cancer cells (SGC-shNC) and SGC-shKIF4A cells were determined by Western Blot.Invasion of gastric cancer cells were assessed using Transwell invasion assay and the number of cells passing through the matrigel was counted.Changing numbers of cortactin in SGC-7901,SGC-shNC,and SGC-shKIF4A cells were analyzed by immunofluorescence staining.Results Compared to the SGC-shNC cells,invasion ability of SGC-shKIF4A cells was increased.Compared to other cells,the numbers of cortactin in SGC-shKlF4A cells was also increased suggesting invadopodia in these cells was increased(P＜0.01).Conclusions Chromokinesin KIF4A acts as a tumor suppressor by inhibiting gastric cancer cells invasion and the results provides strong evidences for KIF4A serving as one of potent targets for gastric cancer prognostics and treatment in clinic.

ObjectiveTo investigate the relationships between T and NK cells in peripheral blood and the relapse or metastasis of malignant tumors.MethodsFlow cytometry was used to test the percentages ofT and NK cells in peripheral blood of 48 malignant tumor patients with relapse or metastasis (relapse or metastasis group) and 48 malignant tumor patients without relapse or metastasis(control group).ResultsCompared with control group,the ratio of Th/Ts decreased,CD4+/CD25+ raised and the activities of NK cells decreased in relapse or metastasis group (0.95 ±0.52 vs.1.35 ±0.43,7.15 ±3.81 vs.6.01 ±2.67,0.2053 ±0.1135 vs.0.2501 ±0.0745)(P＜0.01 or ＜0.05).ConclusionsTesting the T and NK cells in peripheral blood of malignant tumor patients regularly can know their immune status and find the relapse or metastasis early.It is easy and useful in patients' follow-up.

The stratum corneum barrier and the other issues in transdermal drug delivery system have attracted more and more at-tention, and the novel liposomes as the drug delivery vehicles effectively solve the problems. The novel liposomes can significantly im-prove transdermal drug penetration, therefore, can enhance efficacy and shows high application value and development prospects. In the paper, combined with some domestic and foreign current researches, the classification, penetration mechanisms and application of the novel liposomes were reviewed.

Objective To study effects of Rupixiao granules on contraction of uterus of mice in vitro. Methods Mouse model with isolated uterine contraction was established. The mice pretreated with estradiol benzoate were sacrificed and then the uteri were taken out. The normal contractions were recorded by the biological function system. Effects of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 mg.mL-1 Rupixiao granules on spontaneous and oxytocin-induced (5 U.L-1) uterine contractions were recorded,inhibition of Rupixiao granules on mean constriction amplitude,constriction frequency and contraction activity of pitocin-pretreated uterus was observed and the inhibition rates were calculated. Results Compared with the baselines, the amplitude, frequency, activity of spontaneous uterine contraction were significantly down-regulated by Rupixiao solution at a range of 10-60 mg.mL-1 ,as well as it could inhibit oxytocin-induced spasmodic contraction of isolated uterus at 10-50 mg . mL-1 ( P<0. 01 ) . Conclusion The Rupixiao granules inhibits spontaneous contraction of isolated mouse uteri and oxytocin-induced spasm of uterine smooth muscle in vitro.

Objective:To determine the inhibitory effect of Rupixiao ( RPX) granule on mammary gland hyperplasia ( HMG) in rabbits and explore the possible mechanism to provide reference for clinical medication. Methods:Rabbit model of mammary hyperpla-sia was established by estradiol benzoate and progesterone. Xiaoyao pills and tamoxifen were used as the positive control, and the RPX granule group was respectively at low, medium and high dose (0. 525,1. 05,2. 1 g·kg-1). Each group was with intragastric adminis-tration for 30 days. The levels of E2 , PROG, FSH, LH and PRL in serum and the expression of VEGF in the homogenate tissue were determined by an Elisa method. The breast tissue of rabbits in each group was withdrawn to observe the structure changes after Hema-toxylin-eosin staining ( HE) . Results:Ovarian preservation-benzoic acid, estradiol combined with progesterone could be used to estab-lish mammary gland hyperplasia in rabbits. RPX granule could significantly decrease the serum levels of E2 and PRL (P<0. 01)and increase that of PROG (P<0. 01 or P<0. 001). The results of pathological section showed that the breast structure in RPX granule high dose group could be restored to the level of the blank control group, which showed its therapeutic effect on HMG was better than that of tamoxifen and Xiaoyao pills. The expression of VEGF in each treatment group significantly decreased compared with that in the model group by the Elisa reagent (P<0. 001). Conclusion:RPX granule has good efficacy in HMG rabbits. The inhibitory effects of RPX granule on HMG in rabbits maybe related to the inhibition of VEGF in rabbit breast tissues, and the inhibition of RPX granule was similar to that of tamoxifen and Xiaoyao pills.
