Heme oxygenase(HO) is a rate-limiting enzyme that catalyzes heme degradation.It catabolizes heme into 3 products: carbon monoxide(CO),free iron and bilirubin,which play an important role in keeping the steady state of the organism.In recent years,some studies show that the promotion of HO-1 expression can reduce ischemia-reperfusion injury of an organ transplant and regulate the transplantation immunological rejection.It has an important application prospect in liver transplantation.

Objectiv To explore the effects of chromium (Ⅵ) on the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), the final product of lipid peroxidation in peripheral blood of mice and the micronucleus rate of polychromatic erythrocytes (PCE) in peripheral blood. Method 60 Kunming mice were divided randomly into 6 groups averagely. 4 groups were selected as exposure groups which were exposed to 10.27, 13.83, 20.74, 41.48 mg/kg calcium chromate by oral perfusion, one time per day, for 6 days. The negative and positive control group was exposed to distilled water and cyclophos phamide (40 mg/kg) respectively. After exposure, the levels of MDA and micronucleus rates of PCE were determined. Results Significant increases of the levels of MDA and the micronucleus rates of PCE in peripheral blood of mice were observed, which were associated with the increases of the exposure doses of chromium (Ⅵ). Significant positive correlation was observed between the micronucleus rates of PCEs (x) and MDA(nmol/ml) levels (y) in peripheral blood (y=3.705+930x,r=0.958, P

Objective To use peer education to guide community diabetic patients to adopt diet therapy using food exchange method in order to explore effective method for diet therapy of diabetes mellitus. Meth-ods 91 diabetic patients were selected using simple sampling method and randomly divided into the peer ed-ucation(45 cases) and the common education group(46 cases), the two groups adopted food exchange method for diet therapy for 1 year. The blood glucose, blood lipid, glycosylated hemoglobin and body weight index were compared between the two groups using t test. Results The blood glucose, blood lipid, glycosylated hemoglobin and body weight index all decreased in the two groups after intervention, but the the decreased de-gree in the peer education group was more obvious. The fasting blood glucose, 2 hour postprandial blood glu-cose, glycosylated hemoglobin, triglyceride, low-donordensity lipid protein and body weight index in the peer education were lower thanthose of the common education group, but HDL-C was higher. Conclusions Peer education is more effective in health education of food exchange method.

Purpose To investigate clinicopathological features,diagnosis and differential diagnosis of tubular carcinoma of the breast.Methods Morphological observation and immunohistochemistry were applied in 29 cases of tubular carcinoma of the breast, and the literatures were also reviewed.Results The tumors were composed of open tubules, infiltrating haphazardly in the cellular desmoplastic stroma. The neoplastic tubules were enclosed by a single layer of epithelial cells with insignificant atypia or rare mitoses.The tumors were often associated with lobular neoplasm, columnar cell lesion, ductal atypical hyperplasia or carcinoma in situ. Immunostaining displayed that myoepithelial cells were absent or incomplete.Conclusions Tubular carcinoma of the breast is a peculiar subtype of breast carcinoma with good prognoses, which is easily confused with microglandular adenosis, radial sclerosing lesions,or low grade invasive ductal carcinoma.Immunohistochemistry is useful for the differential diagnosis.

Complexity science is a new type of scientific research method, and the combination of complexity science, life science, and medicine is still in the initial stage of exploration, and domestic medi-cal colleges do not offer correlative course currently. In order to broaden students' vision, transform their traditional thinking model, and prepare the future of multidisciplinary cooperation, medical colleges should open complexity science and medicine correlative course for senior undergraduate and graduate students. Course content should start by the famous fablebutterfly infect, followed by the introduction of chaos and fractal, self-organization and complex system theory concept, theoretical framework, and their application in the medical field The teaching material should refer to some popular science books, such as Mystery of the butterfly effect. The teaching method should draw lessons from metaphor.
