Objective To investigate the effect of cytochrome P_ 450 2A6 (CYP2A6) genetic polymorphisms on serum concentration of sodium valproate. Methods A total of 98 epileptic patients receiving sodium valproate after a period of more than 5 half-time were recruited. The genotypes of CYP2A6 of the patients were detected by nested-primer polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to examine the alleles CYP2A6*1 and CYP2A6*4. Fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA) was used to measure the serum concentration of sodium valproate. Results Of the 98 cases, 73 (74.5%) were wild genotypes, 24 (24.5%) were CYP2A6*1/*4 genotypes and 1(1.0%) was CYP2A6*4/*4 genotype. According to the genotypes of CYP2A6 the patients were divided into two groups,one was group A (CYP2A6*1/*1) and the other was group B (CYP2A6*1/*4 or *4/*4). The mean value of the serum concentration of sodium valproate of the patients in group A(4.1393?0.2793) was higher than that in group B(3.3486?0.3919) with a statistical significance (P

Objective To investigate the influence of Yudan Rongxin Keli on immunoregulation in mice. Methods The mice were randomly divided into the normal group, cyclophosphamide (Cy) model group, Yudan Rongxin Pill group and Yudan Rongxin Keli group. The effects of Yudan Rongxin Keli on the phagocytosis of macrophage in mouse abdomen, delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) induced by dinitrochlorobenzene (NDCB), and generation of hemolysin antibody induced by chicken red blood cell (CRBC) were observed respectively. Result Compare with the Cy model group, the phagocytosis of macrophage in Yudan Rongxin Keli group was promoted (P

The clinical data of 76 children with EFE admitted from June, 1998 to December, 2009 was retrospectively analyzed. Tachypnea、 cough and cyanosis were common and all presented with heart failure. Electrocardiogram revealed sinus tachycardia 、left ventricular hyperthrophy and ST-T alterations. On chest radiograph 54 cases (54/76) had a cardiothoracic ratio ＞ 0. 65 and 33 with pneumonia.Echocardiopraphy revealed lowered left ventricular systolic function in all cases and decreased left ventricular diastolic function in 21 (21/76). 63 cases (63/76) presented with thickened and enhanced left ventricular endocardium and 11 (11/76) with thickened interventricular septals. All were treated with digitalis. 58children were improved and discharged, 10 gave up therapy and 8 died during hospitalization. 41 out of 58 improved cases were followed for 1 - 4 years, with 2. 6 years on average. Among them 28 were clinically cured, 7 deteriorated and 6 died of heart failure. Echocardiography is of diagnostic value for ERE. Systolic and diastolic function of the heart can be used to predict the outcome. Pulmonary infection is a major risk factor associated with deterioration. Long-term treatment is imperative to improve the prognosis.

In this study, we aimed to investigate the influences of conditioned medium from human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) on cancer stem cell phenotype of human hepatoma cells. HUVEC and human hepatoma cells (MHCC97H) were cultured, respectively, and then the MHCC97H cells were co-cultured with conditioned medium from HUVEC (EC-CM) with Transwell system. Anti-cancer drug sensitivity, colony-formation, migration/invasion ability, expression of cancer stem cell marker and sphere formation were performed to determine the cancer stem cell phenotype in MHCC97H cells. We found that MHCC97H cells co-cultured with EC-CM exhibited significantly higher colony-formation ability and lower sensitivity of anti-cancer drugs 5-FU and Cis. Transwell assay showed that treatment with EC-CM obviously increased migration and invasion of MHCC97H cells. Moreover, increased sphere forming capability and expression of CD133 in MHCC97H cells were observed after co-cultured with EC-CM. These results suggested that EC-CM could promote cancer stem cell phenotype of hepatoma cells.
