Since the establishment of the People’s Republic of China, the development of China’s official de-velopment assistance for health has been going through three phases. To date, it has developed in many forms, inclu-ding the dispatch of medical team and the construction of health facilities. Since the market reforms, the global con-text together with the domestic socioeconomic foundations have changed; the impact of China’s relatively simple and segmented development assistance for health on the development of health systems in developing countries is limited;the effectiveness of assistance has been watered-down due to segmentation and vague management and accountability systems, as well as the lack of an overarching strategy;China’s health institutions, techniques and products suffer va-rious obstacles in their transfer to other countries where rules are dominated by western countries;compared with the increasing and multiple demands of development assistance for health from developing countries, the capacities of co-operation need to be further developed. As the paper suggests, use the “new major-country” and “new morality-in-terest” and“human oriented” concepts, as well as the ideology of“aid in order to develop, develop in order to coop-erate, so as to develop hand-in-hand” to guide China’s development assistance for health;innovate stereo-aid models to adapt to the changed foreign and domestic socioeconomic context; reform the development assistance for health management system and define rights and obligations appropriately;strengthen coordination and information sharing;link development assistance for health with global health governance to promote a maximized spillover effect;mobilize the civil society with strengthened guidance and supervision.

OBJECTIVETo provide a new material for producing the Rhodiolasachalinensis products, the effect of methyl jasmonate (MeJA) on callus biomass and effective compound accumulation of Rhodiolasachalinensis was studied.
METHODThe calluses-cultured in 3 L-air lift balloon type bioreactor were treated with MeJA after 20 d of bioreactor culture and the effect of MeJA concentration and treatment days on callus biomass, salidroside or polysaccharide accumulation and superoxide dismutase (SOD) and peroxidase (POD) activities were investigated.
RESULTThe callus biomass was not significantly different after MeJA treatment (125) for 0-6 d but obviously decreased after 6 d treatment. The maximum salidroside or polysaccharide contents and SOD or POD activities were found after 4 d treatment of MeJA. MeJA concentration significantly affected callus biomass and effective compound accumulation, biomass decreased at MeJA concentrations higher than 125 μmol x L(-1). However, the effective compound contents were determined at higher MeJA concentration, and the highest salidroside and polysaccharide accumulation was found at 225 and 275 μmol x L(-1) MeJA, respectively and the maximum SOD and POD activities was found at 225 μmol x L(-1) MeJA. The effective compound contents in callus were compared with field-grown plants. Salidroside contents in calluses were 1.1-fold and 2. 4-fold more than in plant roots and stem or leave, respectively. Polysaccharide content in calluses were 3. 6-fold and 8.0-fold more than in plant roots and stem or leave, respectively.
CONCLUSIONSalidorside and polysaccharide in Rhodiolasachalinensiscalluses improved by MeJA treatment, 225 μmol x L(-1) MeJA and 4 d treatment were optimal. The effective compound contents in callus were obviously higher than in field-grown plants. Therefore, bioreactor culture is efficient for obtaining mass effective compounds of Rhodiolasachalinensis by culturing calluses. This method could provide an alternative material source for production of Rhodiolasachalinensis products.

Objective To assess the feasibility of a novel 99Tcm labelled polypeptide analogue for interleukin-11 receptor ( IL11R) imaging in a bone metastases model for prostate cancer. Methods A novel circular polypeptide analogue of IL11 ( c( CGRRAGGSC ) ) was indirectly labeled with 99Tcm and the product was named as 99Tcm-DTPA-IL11 RR. The labeling efficiency, radiochemical purity and stability of the product were measured with paper chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The biodistribution of 99Tcm-DTPA-IL11RR was investigated in 28 ICR normal mice. The organ radioactivity was measured as percentage activity of injection dose per gram of tissue ( %ID/g). The models of bone metastases from prostate cancer were established at the tibias of BALB/c nude mice bearing human prostate cancer PC-3 cells. The tumor bearing ( n= 5 ) and standard closed fracture nude mice models underwent both 99Tcm-DTPA-IL11RR and 99Tcm-methylene diphosphonate (MDP) scintigraphy study. The images were acquired at 0.5, 1,2, 4, 6, 8, 24 h after intravenous injection of the tracers. The competitive inhibition imaging was perfomed in three tumor bearing mice. One-way variance analysis was used. Results The labeling efficiency was 90.7%. The radiochemical purity of 99Tcm-DTPA-IL11RR in normal saline solution was (99.57 ±0.09)%, (99.29 ±0.18)%, (98.95 ±0.78)%, (98.67 ±0.11)%, (96.53 ±0.91)%, (95.20±0.70)%, (88.38 ±0.22)% and (36.17±1.29)% at room temperature after0, 1,2, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 24 h, respectively. The tracer radiochemical purity in the blood of ICR mice remained over 90% at 37 C for 6 h. The labeling compounds were excreted mainly through kidney. The peak uptake of bone ( ( 1.910 ±0.109) %ID/g) and liver ( (0.366 ±0.030) %ID/g) was at 4 h after injection. In the tumor bearing mice, the uptake of spine marrow and large joints of extremities was mild. The highest uptake at tumor region was at 4 h and persistent at 6-8 h after injection. The tumor to non-tumor ratios (T/NT) were 1.17 ±0.17, 2.20 ±0.29, 3.20 ±0.15, 3.67 ±0.23, 13.61±0.85, 9.45 ±0.37 and 3.33 ±0.30 at 0.5,1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 24 h, respectively (F=621.54, P<0.05). In the standard closed fracture models,high uptake of 99Tcm-MDP was shown at the fracture site, with no increased 99Tcm-DTPA-IL11RR uptake noted. The tumor uptake was significantly depressed after a pre-injection of the unlabeled polypeptide analogue. Conclusions The synthesis of 99Tcm-DTPA-IL11RR is stable and the labeling efficiency is high. It may be a potential molecular probe in metastatic bone imaging for prostate cancer.

Objective To investigate the direct inhibitory effects of 153Sm- DTPA-c (Cys-Gly-Arg-Arg-Ala-Gly-Gly-Ser-Cys) NH2 ( 153 Sm-DTPA-c (CGRRAGGSC)) on human prostate cancer PC-3 cells. Methods 153Sm-DTPA-c(CGRRAGGSC) was synthesized by the reaction of 153SmCl3 with DTPA-c(CGRRAGGSC) using indirect synthesis method. PC-3 cells in vitro culture were divided into four study groups, groug A ( the control, with PBS only), group B with 1.5 mg/L c ( CGRRAGGSC), group C with 370 kBq 153 SmCl3 and group D with 370 kBq 153Sm-DTPA-c(CGRRAGGSC). PC-3 cell growth was assayed by 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl ) -2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) method. Cell cycle and apoptosis were analyzed by flow cytometry. The expression changes of interleukin 11 (IL11 ) and IL11 receptor (IL1 1 R) in PC-3 cells were examined by Western Blot. One way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and paired-t test were applied for statistic analysis. Results The labeling yield of 153Sm-DTPA-c (CGRRAGGSC) was 85% and the radiochemical purity was 95.8%. The specific activity of 153Sm-DTPA-c(CGRRAGGSC) was 1.32 × 105 MBq/μmol. Significant inhibitory effects on the growth of PC-3 cells were found in both group C and D, with a time-dependent manner. However, no obvious inhibition was found either in group A or in group B. After 48 h,significant differences of sub-G1 peak area were found among groups, (0. 98 ± 0. 18)%, (0. 35 ±0. 10)%, (4.05 ±0.28)% and (13.38 ±0. 89)% for group A, B, C and D, respectively. Furthermore,sexpression of ILl 1R in group D was significantly lower than that in group B and C with absorbance values 0. 339 ~ 0.014, 0.338 ~ 0.019, 0.226 ~ 0. 015 for group B, C and D, respectively. Absorbance values in groups B and C were not significantly different after treatment, compared with those before treatment; however, there was difference between absorbance values after and before treatment in group D ( t = 0. 405,1. 163,135.989,P>0.05 >0.05, <0.05). Conchluion 153Sm-DTPA-c(CGRRAGGSC) can directly in hibit the cell growth and expression of human prostate cancer cells PC-3.
