2.Roles of transient receptor potential canonical channels in tumors
Journal of International Oncology 2015;(7):522-524
Transient receptor potential(TRP)channels as an important non-selective cation channels family mainly permeate Ca2 + ,Na + and other cations. TRPC channel is a subtribe of TRP family which regu-lates the second messenger of Ca2 + concentration and variety of protease activity,and which can directly or in-directly affect the biological behavior of cells. Recently,more and more evidences have certificated the TRPC channels affect the tumorigenesis and development,such as regulation of proliferation,differentiation,migra-tion,apoptosis and resistance of chemotherapeutic agents during cancer progression.
3.Inducible costimulatory molecule and its roles in tumor microenvironment
Journal of International Oncology 2015;(7):516-518
Inducible costimulatory molecule(ICOS)is a member of the CD28 family,which can be expressed on the tumor tissues and immune cells in the tumor microenvironment. ICOS enhances its anti-tumor activity through participating in CD4 + T and CD8 + T cell immune response and enhancing the secretion of cyto-kines on the activated T cells and NK cells. While the curative effect of cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated anti-gen-4(CTLA-4)monoclonal antibody is relevant with CD4 + T cells expressing ICOS,which suggesting ICOS may become a novel anti-tumor therapeutic target in the future.
4.Research progress of cardiopulmonary bypass model in the rat
Journal of Medical Postgraduates 2003;0(06):-
Since Gibbon designed the first heart lung bypass machine in cats in 1937, Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) has improved a great deal and has developed tremendously. But there are still many complications including hematologic, renal, cardiac, neurologic, pulmonary, and gastrointestinal dysfunctions associated with this brilliant technique. Research of the physiological and pathophysiological consequences of CPB has progressed with the aid of a number of investigative techniques and models, both animal and human. Large animal models have been, and remain, extremely valuable for the study of "full-scale" technologies, particularly prior to clinical application. However, the expenses are too large, and the managements of animals are too difficult in the perioprative period. A preclinical model of CPB for small animals is desirable. The main advantage of a rat model is the low costs of animals and equipment, and the convenience of research which does not require a full-scale operating environment, and a large availability of assays. It is very suitable to study the fluid dynamic, inflammatory, and organ system responses in which physiological mechanisms rather than the technology itself are the focus for investigation. Some of these researches has been done, therefore, in a truly clinically relevant model of bypass, one in which the surface area and priming volume of the circuitry, together with the surgical approach to the procedure, are matched with the clinical model, has not been achieved yet. We review the different models of CPB for rats, discuss their characteristics, give suggestions and requirements for a new up-to-date model that could be a useful tool in continued research on the pathophysiology and therapeutic strategies of CPB.

China Pharmacy 2017;28(20):2847-2851
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the intervention effects of standardized pharmaceutical care on clinical treatment of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(AECOPD)patients. METHODS:A total of 127 AECOPD patients were col-lected from respiratory medicine department of our hospital during Sept. 2014-Mar. 2015,and then divided into control group(63 cases)and observation group(64 cases)according to random number table. Control group only received traditional medical service and drug therapy. Observation group was additionally given standardized pharmaceutical care provided by clinical pharmacists ac-cording to AECOPD clinical pharmacy pathway on the basis of control group. The patients were followed up 1 month after dis-charge. The use of antibiotics during hospitalization,medication adherence,the occurrence of ADE,patient satisfaction and medica-tion bias during hospitalization and after discharge,the rates of ADR awareness and return visit after discharge were compared be-tween 2 groups. RESULTS:In both groups,1 patient withdrew from the study during hospitalitation;33 patients didn't complete return visit after discharge. During hospitalization,the rate of medication adherence and the total satisfaction of traditional medical procedures and medication guidance in observation group were significantly higher than control group;the utilization ratio of antibi-otics and combined use of antibiotics,AUD,the incidence of ADE,the proportion of medication bias were significantly lower than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). After discharge,the rate of ADR awareness and the total satisfaction of medi-cation guidance in observation group were significantly higher than control group,and the incidence of ADR was significantly low-er than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the rate of medication compli-ance,the rate of return visit,the proportion of medication bias between 2 groups after discharge(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The standardized pharmaceutical care can significantly improve medication compliance and satisfaction of inpatients,contribute to ratio-nal use of antibiotics,reduce the incidence of ADE and medication bias,but have no significant effect on medication compliance, the rate of return visit and medication bias of discharged patients.

8.Bcl-2 protein and acute renal ischemia-reperfusion injury
International Journal of Pediatrics 2010;37(2):167-169
Ischemia-reperfusion after neonatal asphyxia is a key factor in renal injury,which often can lead to apoptosis of tubular epithelial cells.Apoptosis is an important form of injury for renal tubular epithelial cells after asphyxia.Large number of cancer genes involve in regulation of renal ischemia-reperfusion injury in the process of apoptosis.Bcl-2 protein which are expression products of Bcl-2 oncogene act on the mitochondrial pathway in apoptosis.Furthermore they can inhibit the caspase cascade of apoptosis via the cells "cross-talk",which contribute to attenuate renal ischemia-reperfusion injury and improve renal function.
9.Antineoplastic properties of nitrogen-containing bisphosphoates
Journal of International Oncology 2011;38(4):257-260
Nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates exert antitumor activity through induction of apoptosis or inhibition of proliferation, invasion and migration in tumor cells, inhibition of angiogenesis and promotion of immune surveillance. Animal models show that bisphosphonates delay visceral metastasis progression. Both ABCSG-12 and ZOFAST trial have demonstrated that Zoledronate reduced breast cancer recurrence risks. Bisphosphonates are synergistic with a variety of chemotherapeutics, and sequential dosing is more effective, which may be attributable to increased uptake of bisphosphonates by tumor cells after pretreatment with chemotherapeutics. Metronomic administration of bisphophonates after chemotherapy provides bisphosphonates the promising antineoplatic potential.
10.Research progress in gastric cancer stem cell
Journal of International Oncology 2011;38(1):51-53
Cancer stem cells(CSCs) are a group of tumor cells with stem cell-like properties such as infinite self-renewal and multi-differentiation potential. Accumulating evidence strongly indicates the presence of cancer stem cells in a variety of solid tumors. Although rare, CSCs play important roles in tumor initiation, progression, recurrence and metastasis. Research of gastric cancer stem cells is still in its infancy. Specific surface markers of gastric CSC are yet to be identified. Active researches are currently underway to investigate the existence and source of CSC in gastric cancer.
