2.Targeted therapies in the treatment of gastric cancer
China Oncology 1998;0(01):-
Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies in the digestive system.Most of the patients with gastric cancer have advanced disease at the time of diagnosis.Chemotherapy is still the mainstay of treatment for advanced gastric cancer,but efficacy of chemotherapy was modest.Molecular targeted therapies have emerged as a novel approach to the treatment of both hematological and solid tumors in recent years.The understanding of molecular biological mechanisms underlying the formation,progression and metastasis in advanced gastric cancer has enabled us to use the new approach to treat this disease in clinical practice.These therapeutic strategies include targeting EGFR signal transduction pathway,anti-angiogenesis,targeting NF-?B signal transduction pathway and cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors.In this review,a brief introduction of the current status of the molecular targeted therapies in the treatment of gastric cancer was presented.Bevacizumab,anti-VEGF monoclonal antibody targeting the angiogenesis pathway has been approved for the treatment of colorectal cancer by FDA,has been reported to show effectiveness in metastatic gastric cancer when combined with cytotoxic agents.Inhibition of NF-?B signal transduction pathway such as PS-341(proteasome inhibitor,bortezomib) approved for the treatment of refractory or recurrent multiple myeloma by FDA has also been used to combine with chemotherapy for gastric cancer.There are also encouraging reports on the combination of standard chemotherapy with Cetuximab,Matuzumab,Gefitinib,Erlotinib and Trastuzumab which target the EGFR and HER2 signal transduction pathways.Flavopiridol is a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor with low molecullar weight that aims at the regulatory process of the cell cycle but this needs further clinical trial.
3.Content Determination of Heavy Metal Elements in Astragalus membranaceus from Longxi of Gansu Province
China Pharmacy 2005;0(15):-
OBJECTIVE:To determine the content of 5 kinds of heavy metal elements in Astragalus membranaceus from Longxi of Gansu province,i.e. Pb,Cd,Cu,As,Hg. METHODS:Wet digestion pretreatment was carried out for samples and atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) was used for the determination of heavy metal elements. RESULTS:The contents of 5 kinds of heavy metal elements in A. membranaceus from Longxi of Gansu Province were lower than the limit. CONCLUSION:AAS method can accurately determine the content of heavy metal elements in A. membranaceus.

Objective To study the effect of Danxuan Koukang(DXKK) drug serum on proliferation and proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA) production of human oral mucosal fibroblasts(FB) induced by areca nut extract(ANE).Methods Human oral mucosal FB were cultured in vitro,100 ?g/mL ANE was used as inducement and 10% DXKK drug serum as intervenor.The cell proliferation rates were measured by MTT assay,PCNA productions were examined by immunocytechemistry.Results MTT assay showed OD value in DXKK groups were significantly decreased compared with the induced group(P

Objective To explore the predictive value of cholinesterase (ChE) in the prognosis of gerontal patients with systemic inflammatory response syndrome. Methods The clinical data of 124 elderly patients with systemic inflammatory response syndrome collected from September 2009 through September 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were divided into death group and survival group according to the outcome of patients. The cholinesterase ( ChE), albumin, D-Dime, lactic acid and C-reactive protein (CRP) were detected, and the APACHE Ⅱ and GCS scores were documented in the first 24 hours in the ICU. Results There were no significant differences in age, gender, APACHE Ⅱ score and GCS score of patients between death group and survival group ( all P > 0. 05 ), but there were significant differences in lactic acid, D-Dime, albumin, CRP and ChE between two groups ( theP values were 0.011,0.011, 0. 007,0. 008, 0. 000, respectively) . The results of multiple factors regression analysis showed that age, gender,lactic acid, D-Dime, albumin, CRP, APACHE Ⅱ score, and GCS score were not the independent risk factors of prognosis of gerontal patients with SIRS ( the P = 0. 401, 0. 165, 0. 446, 0. 841,0. 615, 0. 120,0. 502, 0. 184, respectively) except ChE ( P = 0. 000) . The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) of ChE in the gerontal patients with SIRS showed the area under curve (AUC) = 0.797, SE =0.04, P=0. 000, and the ChE = 103.00 U/L could be a diagnosis point with sensitivity = 0.793, 1-specificity = 0. 258. The correlation analysis showed that the APACHE Ⅱ score, CRP, and albumin were poorly correlated with ChE ( Kendall coefficients were 0. 061, 0. 231, and -0. 090, and theP = 0. 161,0. 000, and 0. 069, respectively ) . Conclusions ChE maybe played a important role in the gerontal patients with SIRS, and could be a predictive index for the prognosis of gerontal patients with systemic inflammatory response syndrome.

Histological characters of stems of Cirsium japonicum Fisch. ex DC. and C.chinense Gardn. et Champ. were described, compared and illustrated with line drawings. It was found that the following characters are important for disting uishing the two plants;(1) the type of stomata, vessels or fibres; (2) the presence or absence of secretory canal or tracheids.
