Objective:To study new dosage form of Bingpeng powder referring to oversea patent. Methods: To disperse Bingpeng powder, adhesive and viscosity builders (such as gelatin, carboxymethylcellulose, hypromellose or carbomer), nonionic emulsifier (gluceryl monostearate) and white vaseline into liquid paraffin, stir to attain paste. The formulation was screened by adhesive strength, shape keeping characteristic and water asorbing value. Results: The better formulation: Bingpeng powder 5.0g, hypromellose 21.0g, carbomer 14g, gluceryl monostearate 3.0g, white vaseline 7.0g, liquid paraffin to 100.0g; the paste getting rabbits' artificial ulcers healed more quickly than powder does. Conclusion: The paste is applied more expediently and more effective for oral ulcer.

Liver fibrosis can be caused by chronic liver injury arising from various etiological factors.The activation of the hepatic stellate cell(HSC) is the central event in liver fibrosis,the apoptosis of which was the initiating factor for the reversal process.The apoptosis of HSC is very complicated.The signaling pathways lack of enough research in regulating and controlling and activating HSC's apoptosis.The apoptosis pathways as known currently mainly include mitochondrial pathway,death receptor pathway and non-death receptor pathway.Based on these signaling pathways,selectively inducing cell death of activated HSCs is becoming the new antifibrotic treatment.This review focuses on the new progress of HSC's apoptosis signaling pathways,and summarizes the drugs that have the effect of inducing HSC apoptosis.

AIM: To investigate the influence of diethylstilbestrol on metabolism and antioxidative functions in old castrated female rats in order to elucidate the physiological and pharmacological effects of estrogen therapy in climacteric. METHODS: The old female rats had been castrated, liver drug-metabolizing enzyme activities and antioxidative indexes were measured in rats treated with and without diethylstilbestrol (100 ?g?kg -1 , qd?40 d, ig). RESULTS: The activities of microsomal NADPH-Cyt C reductase, benzphetamine N-demethylase, aminopyrine N-demethylase, glutathione S-transferase, and the contents of microsomal cytochrome P450, cytochrome b_5 and homogenate glutathione remarkable decreased in the liver of castrated female rats. Meanwhile, an increase of liver malondialdehyde content was also observed. Treatment with diethylstilbestrol could reverse the changes of above indices except for cytochrome b_5. CONCLUSION: The decreased metabolism and antioxidative functions are related to the lower level of estrogen in old castrated female rats. Estrogen plays a significant role in keeping normal metabolism and antioxidative capacities of the liver.

Objective To observe the efficacy and safety of albumin bound paclitaxel in the treatment of retreatment advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods Retreatment NSCLC patients failed from first line regimen or beyond were treated with albumin bound paclitaxel weekly by intravenous dose of 130 mg/m2 on day 1 and day 8,with a 21-day cycle.Efficacy was evaluated every two cycles and side effects were observed during each cycle.Results None of 69 patients achieved complete remission (CR),15 patients (21.7 %) achieved partial remission (PR),and 23 patients (33.4 %) achieved stable disease (SD).Objective response rate (ORR) was 21.7 %,disease control rate (DCR) was 55.1%,and progress free survival (PFS) time was 3.8 months.Efficacy was not correlated with gender,age,histology and lines of previous treatment (all P > 0.05).Main adverse reactions included neutropenia,alopccia and neurotoxicity,which were all tolerable.Conclusion Weekly albumin bound paclitaxel is effective and well tolerated in the treatment of retreatment advanced NSCLC,which can be considered as the second line or beyond regimen.

In order to determine the challenge dose of pigeon paramyxovirus type 1 (PPMV-1) inactivated vaccine (S-1 strain). The virus titer of PPMV-1 E5 allantoic fluid (Chuansha strain) was determined using SPF chicken embryos in this research. After inoculating 30-day-old and 120-day-old pigeons with low-HI antibody against PPMV-1 (HI antibody < or =2) with different doses of PPMV-1 (Chuansha strain), the clinical symptoms and histopathological lesions of the challenged pigeons were examined. The results showed that the minimal lethal dose (MLD) of PPMV-1 (Chuansha strain) was 102.5 ELD50, so we determined that 10(5.5) ELD50, which was 1000 times the MLD, could be taken as the challenge dose in the vaccine efficacy test for PPMV-1 inactivated vaccine (S-1 strain).

Objective To investigate the clinical significance and mechanism of WW domain containing oxidoreductase (WWOX) gene and p73 gene abnormal expression in acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL).MethodsCase-control study was used in the research.Forty-eight cases of bone marrows from ALL patients were collected,including 32 cases newly diagnosed,11 cases with complete remission and 5 case with relapse.Thirty-one cases of bone marrows from non-leukemia patients were used as control group.All the samples were collected from First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from July 2010 to July 2011.The doctors punctured patients' bone marrows 3 milliliters from the left of posterior superior iliac spine.Samples were bottled up with EDTA anti-coagulation tube.1 milliliter bone marrow was used to extract genome RNA with purity from 1.8 to 2.0.And then,the level of WWOX and p73 gene transcripts were tested immediately using reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Meanwhile genome DNA was also extracted from the other 2 milliliter bone marrow with purity from 1.7 to 1.9,which was used to detect the promoter methylation of WWOX gene and the first exon methylation of p73 gene by methylation PCR (MS-PCP).x2 test and Fisher's exact test were used to compare tbe methylation status of WWOX and p73 gene.Results In 31 controls,expression of WWOX and p73 gene mRNA was 94.00%.The total expression frequency of WWOX gene mRNA in 48 ALL samples was 48.00% (23/48),much lower than control (x2 =17.434,P =0.000 ).There was significant difference (x2 =10.471,P =0.001 ) between newly diagnosed cases 34.38% ( 11/32),complcte remission cases (90.91%,10/11 ) and control.The total expression frequency of p73 gene mRNA in 48 ALL samples was 56.00% (27/48),much lower than control (x2 =12.697,P =0.000).There was significant difference (P =0.012 ) between newly diagnosed cases 43.75%(14/32) and complete remission cases 90.91%(10/11).It was unmethylation in 31 controls.The total methylation frequency of WWOX gene promoter region in 48 ALL samples was 44.00%(21/48),much lower than control (x2 =18.473,P =0.000).There was significant difference (P =0.012) between newly diagnosed cases 56.25% (18/32),complete remission cases 9.09% (1/11 ) and control.The total methylation frequency of p73 gene the first exon region in 48 ALL samples was 35.00%(17/48),much lower than control (x2 =13.990,P =0.000).There was significant difference (P =0.033) between newly diagnosed cases 46.88% (15/32),complete remission cases 9.09% ( 1/11 ) and control.There was a negative correlation between the expression of WWOX gene mRNA and its methylation status(r =- 0.678,P =0.000),the same as p73 gene ( r =- 0.577,P =0.000).ConclusionsThe abnormal methylation of WWOX and p73 gene may be the major mechanism of gene silence in ALL,which leads to no expression of WWOX mRNA or p73 mRNA.And the abnormal methylation of WWOX and p73 gene may be relevant with the process of occurrence and development in ALL.It may be an effective and significant to detect methylation status of WWOX gene and p73 gene for the diagnosis and treatment of ALL patients.(Chin J Lab Med,2012,35:820-825)
