Objective The anti tumor and anti metastasis effects of angiocytotoxic therapy (TNP 470/Gemcitabine) were investigated using a model of human pancreatic carcinoma by surgical orthotopic implantation (SOI). Methods The SOI model was developed by suturing small pieces of SW1990 tumors into the tail of pancreas in nude mice. Twenty four male mice were randomly divided into control group, G100 group receiving 100 mg/kg Gemcitabine intraperitoneally injection on days 0,3,6 and 9 after transplantation, and T30 group receiving 30 mg/kg TNP 470 subcutaneous injection on alternate days for 8 weeks. Another thirty two male mice were randomly divided into control group, T15 group, G50 group and combination group (TNP 470 30 mg/kg+ Gemcitabine 50 mg/kg). Animals were sacrificed ten weeks after transplantation. Results G100 group had a significant inhibitory effect on tumor growth of pancreatic carcinoma compared to T30 group, while the metastasis of tumor was significantly inhibited by T30 group compared to G100 group. Neither G100 group nor T30 group showed a significant improvement on survival rate. T15 group and G50 group alone had no significant inhibitory effect on the tumor growth and its metastasis. Mean while a significant anti tumor, anti metastatic effect and a significant improvement on the survival rate were observed in combination group. The inhibitory effect of G50 group was enhanced by 2 times with T30, and 2/8 of the tumors bearing animals were cured by the combination therapy. The level of microvessel density in T30 group was significantly lower than that in T15 group and control group ( P

Streptomyces sp. A048 was cultured in a complete medium to the last stage of log phase,the hyphae were washed and collected by centrifugation. Then the hyphae were inoculated in liquid medium for chitinase production using two-step fermentation. Activity of chitinase produced by two-step fermentation was 1.1 times higher than that from one-step fermentation,and ferment cycle was for 54 hours,which was 66 hours shorter than that of one-step fermentation. The hyphae and the powder of chitin were co-immobilizated and cultured in liquid medium for 36 hours,activity of chitinase was 1.8 times higher than that from one-step fermentation,and ferment cycle was 54h shorter than that of one-step fermentation. By adding 0.4% cellulose to two-step fermentation,activity of chitinase was 18.52 U/mL that was 4 times higher than that from the control and 10 times higher than that from one-step fermentation. Two step fermentation with chitin and cellulose may be the optimal fermentation process to produce Chitinase from Streptomyces sp. A048.

Clinical medicine is a comprehensive discipline integrating natural science and hu-manities and social science. Lemology is closely related with basic medicine and medical microbiology and medical immunology are the basis of lemology. Therefore, in the process of cultivating postgradu-ates of lemology, we should not only should attach importance to the cultivation of basic medical knowl-edge and clinical professional quality, but also pay more attention to the development of the intelligence factors and non-intelligence factors. Meanwhile education on humanity, social sciences and relevant laws and regulations should be enhanced to cultivate doctors' professional quality. Reverse thinking and lateral thinking in the clinical diagnosis should be strengthened to achieve the training objectives of cultivating international medical talents.

Background Retinal development continues during the early postnatal period in mammals.Correct arrangement of layers and precise location of various cells in the retina are vital for forming normal visual function during critical period plasticity.Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography(SD-OCT)provides highquality in vivo retinal imaging and the possibility to measure retinal thickness longitudinally. Objective The present study was to investigate the changes of retinal thickness during critical period plasticity in rats. Methods In vivo consecutive scanning of retinal image was performed in 10 SPF Sprague-Dawley rats at postnatal day 14(P14),P18,P21,P24 and P42 with SD-OCT,and retinal histopathological examination was used to detect retinal morphologic changes at the same postnatal ages in 20 matched rats.The whole retinal thickness,the thickness from inner limiting membrane(ILM)to inner plexiform layer(IPL),the thickness of inner nuclear layer(INL)and the thickness from outer nuclear layer(ONL)to retinal pigment epithelium(RPE)were measured using Cirrus HD-OCT system and HMIAS-2000 Imaging System in retinal sections.The measurement parameters by Cirrus HD-OCT and those by hematoxylin-eosin staining were compared.The use of animals followed the Statement of National Institute of Health (USA). Results In vivo high-resolution images of rat retinas with SD-OCT compared well with histology,which enabled quantitative comparison of the SD-OCT and histological data during critical period plasticity in rats.From P14 to P42,the retinal thickness gradually decreased with the increase of rat ages(F=15.425,P=0.000),and so were the thickness from ILM to IPL,the thickness of INL and the thickness from ONL to RPE(F=3.973,P=0.007;F=17.529,P=0.000;F=7.038,P=0.000).The retinal thickness,thickness of INL.thickness from ONL to RPE measured by Cirrus HD-OCT were significantly correlated with those measured by retinal sections among P14,P18,P21,P24 and P42 rats(r=0.794,P=0.000;r=0.784,P=0.000;r=0.681,P=0.000). Conclusion SD-OCT is a demonstratably valuable technology to study the structure of retinas in rats.The retinal thickness is shown to reduce in thickness throughout the development of the retina during critical period plasticity due to the decrease in thickness of INL and the distance from the ONL to RPE,as illustrated by OCT scanning.
