Objective To understand the effect of Kuntai Capsule on mice endometrial receptivity by comparing the lyso‐phospholipids acid receptor‐3(LPAR3) expression in endometrium during mouse embryos implantation period .Methods Ninety 6-8 week old Kunming female mice were randomly divided to three groups :the group A [controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH)] ,B (COH+Kuntai Capsule) and C(normal saline control) ,30 cases in each group .The vaginal plug was performed on the next day after mating .Five mice in each group were daily killed on 1 -6 d .The serum estradiol(E2) and progesterone(P) levels were detected .The glands number and the immunohistochemical integrated optical density (IOD) were also determined .Results The levels of serum E2 amd P in the group A and B were higher than those in the group C at the same period (P<0 .05);in the HE staining ,the glands number in the group A was significantly decreased compared with the group B and C (P<0 .05) .The IOD value of LPAR3 on 3 d in the group A was significantly lower than that in the group B and C (P<0 .05) ,while the group B was slightly higher than the group C without statistical difference (P>0 .05) .Conclusion Kuntai Capsule may play the role for improving the endometrial receptivity by improving the normal space‐time expression of LPAR3 .

Objective To evaluate the efficacy, toxicity and clinical benefit response of gemcitabine on advanced non small cell lung cancer in elderly. Methods Patients in the chemotherapy arm of the study received gemcitabine 1 250 mg/ m 2 as a intravenous infusion every 21 days .Patients in the best supportive care(BSC) arm should not receive chemotherapy or anticancer therapy. Results Overall survival period in the gemcitabine arm was significantly longer than in the BSC arm ( P

AIM:To explore the diagnosis and treatment methods of radioaction-induced optic neuritis ( RION) through the clinical dates of 17 patients.
METHODS: It was a retrospective case series study. From August 2008 to October 2013, 17 cases (24 eyes) of Rion clinical dates from Chinese PLA General Hospital were studied. The diagnosis methods including visual acuity, pupil, fundus, visual field, fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA), visual electrophysiological testing, and head MRI. To analysis the clinical date of patients with diagnosis of RION by statistical description.
RESULTS: The deterioration degree of vision: 13 eyes were classified as Ⅳ, 9 eyes as Ⅲ, 2 eyes as II. Ten eyes RAPD ( + ) , visual electrophysiology is extinguished. The retina of 5 eyes showed flame hemorrhages and cotton wool spots exudation. Optic nerve head edema in one eye. T1 - weighted MRI enhanced in 19 eyes which showed optic nerve of the intracranial and intratubal segments abnormal changed, optic chiasm and pituitary stalk signal abnormalities and enhancement of the optic nerve. Tortuous optic nerves and rough edges were observed in 5 eyes. Treatment effect: 4 eyes of visual acuity improved, 1 eye from blindness to light perception,1 eye from 0. 08 to 0. 2, 1 eye from 0. 4 to 0. 6,1 eye from 0. 04 to 0. 15, the rest of the cases did not see any improvement.
CONCLUSION: The unique clinical manifestation of RION can provide objective basis for clinical diagnosis in time, but there have not been proven any effective treatments.

OBJECTIVETo study the characteristics of EV71 JN200804 strain infection in one-day old BALBI c mjce and to establish a animal model of EV71 infection , and to provide information and technical support for the evaluation of the EV71 vaccine and antiviral medicine.

METHODSOne-day old BALBic mice were infected with EV71 JN200804 strain through oral( PO) ,intracranial(IC) ,intraperitoneal (IP), intramuscular (IM) routes, respectively. All mice were sacrificed at paralysis of hind limbs and collected organs for viral isolation, RT -PCR and pathological examination, and the electrophysiology were detected before sacrifice.

RESULTSAll mice infected through IC, IP and IM routes were paralyzed in hind limbs at 4-5 days and died at 7 days about, the hypokinesia and lethargy of mice were observed through PO routes. The viruses could be isolated and detected in the muscle from mice infected through IC, IP and IM routes and in the spinal cord through IC routes by viral isolation and RT-PCR. The neurogenic and myogenic disorders were detected by electromyography. Histopathologically, the varied pathologic changes were observed in the mouse cerebellum , spinal cord , muscle , heart, lung, liver and kidney.

CONCLUSIONEV71 JN200804 strain can infect one-day old BALBI c mice and induce paralysis of hind limbs, its animal infection model may apply to study of EV71 infection pathogenesis and antiviral medicine, and evaluation of the EV71 vaccine.

Objective To investigate the biological effects of exosomes secreted by KYSE410 cells on migration and invasion of KYSE410,KYSE510,YES2 cells and the possible mechanisms underlying the phenotype change.Methods The exosomes were isolated from the conditional supernatant of esophageal cancer cell line KYSE410 by ultracentrifugation.The morphology of exosomes was observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM).Western blotting was used to detect the protein markers of exosomes.The uptaken of fluorescence-labeled KYSE410 exosomes by KYSE410,KYSE510 and YES2 was also recorded under confocal microscopy.Migration and invasion ability of the three esophageal carcinoma cell lines and the effects of exosomes from KYSE410 on migration and invasion of KYSE410,KYSE510 and YES2 cells were analyzed by Transwell chamber,respectively.The alteration of Wnt/β-catenin and PI3K/Akt pathway-related proteins were detected by Western blotting.Results The membrane structure of KYSE410 derived exosomes could be observed with its diameter ranged between 30-100nm.The invasion and migration ability of three esophageal cancer cells are KYSE410＞ KYSE510＞ YES2.KYSE410 exosomes promoted the migration and invasion of KYSE410,KYSE510 and YES2 cells.Conclusions Concentrated exosomes derived from the highly migratory and invasive esophageal cancer cell line KYSE410 promoted the migration and invasion potentials of itself and esophageal cancer cell lines KYSE510 and YES2,which possibly exerted the effects by activating Wnt/β-catenin and PI3K/Akt signaling pathways.

Objective To study the influence of sex on the prognosis in acute ST elevated myocardial in- farction(STEMI)patients after primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods :The risk factors, coronary angiography and prognosis in 478 males and 101 females with STEMl were compared.Results:Mortality of STEMI was significantly different in different age groups(P<0.01).The attack of the STEMI in women was 10 vears later than that of men(P<0.01),especially in those women whose age was over 71 years oId.The complica- tion ratio of hypertension and type 2 mellitus diabetes was higher in female patients than that in male(P<0.01). More multi-vessel lesions were found in female patients than those in male(P<0.01).The incidence of in-hospital mortality,pseudoaneurysm,haematoma Was significantly higher in females than in males(P<0.05.P<0.01).Con- clusions The in-hospital mortalitv and puncture complications in STEMI female patients treated with primary PCI are higher than male patients.
