Multidrug resistance (MDR) is the phenomenon observed in tumor cells that describes the simultaneous emergence of cellular resistance to the cytotoxic attack by structurally and mechanism unrelated chemotherapeutic drugs. The mdr 1 gene was sufficient to confer the MDR phenotype, including the expression of the P Glycoprotein (P Gp). P Gp appears to play an important role in tumor cells by acting as an energy dependent efflux pump to remove various drugs from the cell before they have a chance to exert their cytotoxic effects. It is generally accepted that reversal or inhibition of P Gp function in tumor cells is an important way for modulating MDR. It has been demonstrated in the laboratory that MDR mediated by the P Gp may be modulated by a wide variety of compounds. These compounds , which include verapamil and cyclosporin, generally have little or no effect by themselves on the tumor cells, but when used in conjunction with antineoplastic agents, they decrease, and in some instances eliminate, MDR. This paper will introduce some new reversal agents and discuss their physical and chemical characteration and others.

Objective To explore the clinical value of testing LDH and IL-2 in the serum of the patients with the acute leukemia. Methods The LDH and IL-2 in the serum of 15 patients with the acute leukemia were tested,who consist of the patients with first treatment,recurrence and remission,compared with these of the normal people in control group.Results The LDH of the patients with first treatment and recurrence was obvious higher than tllat of the patients with remission;the IL-2 of the patients with first treatment and recurrence was obvious lower than that of the patients with remission.The LDH descent and IL-2 ascent were found in the patients with remission.Conclusion The cell load of the patients with the acute leukemia can depress the expression of IL-2 in the patients with the acute leukemia.

Because of their physiological and anatomical immaturity, premature infants are prone to disorders of glucose metabolism. In the ifrst week after birth, infants have the greater risk of abnormal glucose metabolism. Compared with term infants, the glucose/insulin homeostasis of preterm infants is very different. This article reviewed the characteristics of glycometabolism in premature infant and the methods of glucose test.

The role of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs)in promoting inflammatory response and immune escape of tumor cells and the mechanism by which MDSCs promote the development and progression of tumors are reviewed.This could provide a new way for the investigation of immunological mechanism of liver fibrosis and liver cancer.Besides,MDSCs may be an effective therapeutic target for liver cirrhosis and liver cancer.

Objective To explore the clinical value of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in the perioperative period of biliary surgery.Methods The prospective study was adopted.The clinical data of 800 patients diagnosed as benign biliary tract diseases who were admitted to the Cangzhou's Central Hospital from March 2011 to January 2015 were collected.Patients were randomly divided into the case and control groups by random sequence method.The patients of case group received the ERAS management and patients of the control group received traditional perioperative management.(1) Stress state evaluation:the insulin resistance (IR) index and level of serum C-reactive protein (CRP) were calculated.(2) Levels of inflammatory cytokines:levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in the 2 groups were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).(3)Nutritional status:level of serum prealbumin (PA) was detected.(4) Postoperative status:time to anal exsufflation,time of defecation,duration of hospital stay and treatment expenses were recorded.(5) Postoperative complications were observed.Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as x ± s and comparison between groups was analyzed using t test.Repeated measurement data were analyzed by the repeated measures ANOVA.Count data were represented as ratio and analyzed using the chi-square test.Results The 800 patients were screened for eligibility,including 400 in each group.(1) Stress state evaluation:the levels of IR and CRP from pre-operation to 7 days after operation were from 3.8 ± 0.8 to 3.7 ± 0.7 and from (18 ± 5) μg/L to (27 ±8) μg/L in the case group,from 3.9 ±0.9 to 3.8 ±1.0 and from (18 ±5) μg/L to (38 ±9) μg/L in the control group,respectively,with statistically significant differences in the changing trends (F =12.38,17.85,P ＜0.05).(2) Comparisons of levels of inflammatory cytokines:levels of IL-6 and TNF-α from pre-operation to 7 days after operation were from (9.3 ± 3.1) ng/L to (12.5 ± 2.8) ng/L and from (10.2 ± 3.5) ng/L to (12.8 ±3.3)ng/L in the case group,from (8.9 ±3.3)ng/L to (17.3 ±6.5)ng/L and from (9.9 ±2.8) ng/L to (14.3 ±4.2)ng/L in the control group,with statistically significant differences in the changing trends (F =19.93,15.74,P ＜ 0.05).(3) Comparison of nutritional status:level of PA from pre-operation to 7 days after operation was from (335 ± 53)mg/L to (332 ±50)mg/L in the case group and from (330 ± 49)mg/L to (331 ± 45)mg/L in the control group,with a statistically significant difference in the changing trends (F =4.46,P ＜ 0.05).(4)Comparisons of postoperative status:time to anal exsufflation,time of defecation,duration of hospital stay and treatment expenses were (30 ± 10)hours,(51 ± 13) hours,(7.7 ± 2.5) days,(10.2 ±2.3) × 103 yuan in the case group and (54 ± 8) hours,(70 ± 16) hours,(15.4 ± 3.1) days,(15.6 ± 4.7) × 103 yuan in the control group,with statistically significant differences (t =37.73,18.62,38.67,20.64,P ＜0.05).(5) Comparisons of postoperative complications:incidence of complications was 15.00％ (60/400)in the case group and 22.50％(90/400) in the control group,and the numbers of patients with incision infection,nausea and vomiting,abdominal infection,intra-abdominal infection,urinary tract infection,intro-abdominal hemorrhage and bile leakage were 23,15,8,5,4,3,2 in the case group and 30,20,13,10,7,5,5 in the control group,respectively,showing statistically significant differences in the incidence of complications (x2=7.39,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion ERAS management in the perioperative period of biliary surgery is beneficial to postoperative recovery of patients,and it can also relieve postoperative stress state and inflammatory response,reduce the duration of hospital stay,treatment expenses and incidence of postoperative complications.

The initiation and development of gastric cancer is due to the effects from both external and internal factors.Recent researches show that external environment factors regulate and control the key genes expression during the process of cell's growth and development through epigenetic modification such as DNA methylation or demethylation,histone modification and small RNA,thus playing an important role in gastric cancer's occurrence and development.
