OBJECTIVE:To discuss the prospect of hospital preparation and to find out effective measures for its devel-opment.METHODS:The history of hospital preparation was reviewed,and the way for its survival was discussed on the basis of current situation and newly formed laws and regulations on preparations.RESULTS&CONCLUSION:Hospital preparation can survive and develop only by“controlling scale,guarantee quality,creating specialty and exploiting new drugs”.

The polymorphisms of VNTR loci D1S80 (pMCT 118), D17S30 (pYNZ-22 ) and ApoB3' in blood and tissues were detected by amplified fragment length polymorphism (Amp-FLP) technique,and was applied in the paternity testing cases. The discriminating power (DP) of D1S80,D17S30 and ApoB3'were 0. 962, 0. 956 and 0. 960 respectively. The cumulative probability of paternity exclusion (EPP) of the three VNTR loci was 94. 51 %,higher than that of conventional blood typings.

Objective To select the acceptor ingredients of Streptococcus mutans protein in the whole saliva through the interaction between adhesion and saliva protein of Streptococcus mutans. Methods After activation and liquid culture of Streptococcus mutans strains of international standards, we took Su-bonding from liquid culture of bacteria secretion in the process of liquid culture by using chilled ethanol extraction. Then su-bonded components underwent electrophoresis analysis, content determination and antigen detection. We collected 15 with high carries and 15 with no carries. Two hours after eating, the whole non-irritating saliva was collected, electrophoresis samples were prepared after freeze-drying, and then stains were separated with SDSPAGE. Western blot detection was used for adhesive protein and Streptococcus mutans' antibody composition. Results The ingredients of Su-bonding secreted on the surface of Streptococcus mutans were obtained in the cultured saliva. There were at least six kinds of components in the extraction of Western blot detection, not limited to the three known kinds of proline-rich protein. Conclusion The adhesion of Streptococcus mutants can be bound with the proteins of saliva. It may be the material basis in Streptococcus mutants adhered to tooth surface.

Objective To study of relationship between elderly people's alexithymia and mind-reading. Methods There were 108 old people over 70 years old, tested by mind-reading,cognitive ability and twenty-item Toronto alexithymia scale. Results There were significant difference in mind-reading(16.00±4.84, 19.36±2.91,t =3.38,P ＜0.01), memory span(5.80±1.42,7.18±1.13,t =4.28,P ＜0.01), working memory( t =4.05,P ＜0.01),processing speed( t =-4.80,P ＜0.01) between high and low alexithymia groups.Alexithymia scores were negatively related to the scores of mind-reading, memory span,working memory,processing speed,correlation coefficient was 0.227( P <0.05),-0.377( P <0.01),-0.334( P <0.01),-0.470( P <0.01),respectively. With mind-reading,cognitive processing and educational level as independent variables,with total scores, F1, F2, and F3 of TAS as dependent variable,respectively,the regression equation of total scores was significant( F =8.594,P ＜0.01), and the one of F1 was significant( F =8.796,P ＜0.01),but the one of F2( F =1.735,P ＞0.05) and F3( F =1.181,P ＞0.05) was not significant. Conclusion Elderly people's alexithymia is negatively related to mind-reading and several cognitive abilities. Mind-reading could affect emotional recognition, but not affect emotional description and export-oriented thinking.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of AG490 on the invasion of Hep2 laryngeal carcinoma cells, and to investigate the role of STAT3 signaling pathway in human laryngeal carcinoma invasion.METHODS Janus kinase inhibitor AG490 was used to inhibit the activation of STAT3 signaling pathway of Hep2 cells.Hep2 cell invasion was detected by quantitative Matrigel invasion assay.The expression of p-STAT3 was measured by flow cytometry. RESULTS The activation of STAT3 signaling pathway and the invasion of laryngeal carcinomas Hep2 cell line were suppressed by AG490.The expression of p-STAT3 and the invasion cell number of Hep2 cell line in the group treated by AG490 for 24h decreased compared with that in control group(P

Surgery is the major treatment option for malignant tumors and some benign neoplasms of the thyroid, most of which are differentiated thyroid carcinoma. Despite the progresses that have been made in surgical techniques, iatrogenic injuries of the parathy-roid and laryngeal nerves, including superior and recurrent laryngeal nerves, could not be completely avoided in the surgical manage-ment of thyroid tumors. In this review, the causes of intraoperative injuries of parathyroid and laryngeal nerves are systematically ana-lyzed with respect to types and extents of surgical operations, changes in topical anatomy, and secondary thyroid surgeries. The princi-ples and strategies for protecting and restoring injuries of the parathyroid and laryngeal nerves are also elucidated for the effective prevention and adequate treatment of these major complications in the thyroid surgery.

Objective Using hypothyroid,hyperthyroid and normol control rats model,we investigated mRNA expression of the nerve-growth-factor and its receptor TrkA in hippocampus and parietal cortex at 14,21,28days of ages,to offer a possible neurobiological explanation about mechanism of thyroid hormone modulating NGF and its receptor TrkA.Methods For hypothyroid group,rats were reared with 0.02% methimazol water from 5~6 day of gestation to the day when they were sacrificed;for hyperthyroid group,rats were daily intraperitoneal injected of 0.4?g/g body weight tiiodothyronin from beginning of delivery;for normal control rats were reared a normol diet and water.NGF mRNA and TrkAmRNA were measured by in site hybridization.Results The peak of mRNA expression of NGF and TrkA is at P21and P28 respectively,.The mRNA expression of NGF and TrkA in hypothyroid rats was significantly lower than that in age-matched euthyroid at P14,P21,P28(P

Hypoxia could not only induce tumor chemoradiotherapeutic resistance, but also cause strong invasiveness which make tumor inclined to recurrence and metastasis. With regard to the detection of oxygenation condition in tumor tissue, there are many methods, but each has its advantages and disadvantages. Accurate monitoring of tumor oxygenation state plays an important role in therapeutic schedule formulation and implementation which would improve curative effect of tumor.

Dihydroartemisinin (DHA), a semi-synthetic derivative of artemisinin, has recently shown antitumor activity in various cancer cells including cancers of cervix, pancreas, prostate, liver and neuroblastoma. Numerous studies in vivo and in vitro indicate that DHA possesses unique antitumor features and appears to be a promising chemotherapeutic agents. Here we systematically review the advances in research of anticancer of dihydroartemisinin, as well as summarize the mechanisms of its inducing apoptosis,delay cell-cycle, inhibitory cell proliferation and downregulate angiogenesis.
