Epigenetic modification, which involve DNA methylation, RNA-associated silencing and histone modification, is implicated in cell proliferation, differentiation, survival, apoptosis and malignant transformation. Some leukemogenesis has been shown to be aberrance of epigenetic modification. This paper discussed the potential causes of some of leukemias correlating with the methylation of cell cycle regulation genes, small interference RNA and modification abnormality of histone after translation. The study on epigenetic modification abnormality of leukemia cells provides a new strategy for treatment of leukemia.

Posterior circulation iscbemia refers to the transient iscbemic attack and the cerebral infarction in vertebrobasilar artery system,its prognosis is not as good as anterior circulation ischemia,and its treatment is similar to that of anterior circulation ischemia.However,because of the mortality of basilar artery occlusion is higher,usually more aggressive treatment should be considered,such as thromholytic therapy(especially intra-arterial thromholysis)and endovas- cular therapy,and the therapeutic time window is much longer.This article reviews the treatment of anterior circulation ischemia.

Objective]To investigate academic thoughts of Prof. Yan Dexin in spleen and stomach syndrome treatment.[Methods]The paper summarized the academic origin, academic thoughts as well as practical treatment cases of Prof. Yan Dexin ’s spleen and stomach syndrome treatment theory. [Results]The main points of Prof. Yan’s academic thought on spleen and stomach therapy has succeeded and developed the therapy of Menghe physician, which includes an emphasis on spleen Qi rise and stomach Yin drop, Qi of spleen and stomach regulation, special attention on the function of the stomach-yang and spleen-yin, an advocation ofspleen leading four organs, and therapy design from spleen with an ingenious use of atractylodes rhizome, Atractylodes and Zhizhu pill. [Conclusion] Professor Yan Dexin developed his unique theoretical system in spleen-stomach diseases therapy on basis of the experiences of spleen and stomach disease treatment from ancient physicians, which is instructive for later physicians.

Sleep plays an important role in the modulation of endocrine function and energy metabolism;hormone levels are markedly different during a sleepless night compared with a night of normal sleep.Sleep deprivation may change the levels of cortisol,growth hormone(GH)and thyrotropin(TSH)at night.In addition,sleep curtailment disturbs the balance of anorexi- genic(leptin)and orexigenic(ghrelin)factors,and does harmful to glucose tolerance.

Receptor of activated C-kinase 1 (RACK1) shows different expression in various tumors,because its seven WD repeating sequences can combine with a variety of molecules.In addition to activating protein kinases C,RACK1 still plays a role in many tumor-related signaling pathways.With the deepening of research,RACK1 is expected to play an active role in cancer diagnosis,treatment and prognosis.

Objective To investigate the mechanisms of oxygen free radical/JNK signaling pathway on neuronal autophagy after subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH) in rats.Methods 160 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups: sham group, SAH model group, low dose Edaravone group and high dose Edaravone group.The SAH model was established by autologous blood injection into cisterna magna twice, while the rats in the sham group were injected with isotonic saline(0.3mL/time).The high dose of edaravone group and low dose of edaravone group were given 5mg/kg or 10mg/kg of edaravone, respectively, once daily with tail intravenous injection after the models were established.The morphological changes of hippocampus neural cells were detected by light microscope.The malondialdehyde (MDA) level in brain tissue was determined with thiobarbituric acid.The changes of phosphorylated JNK and autophagic biomarkers (Beclin-1 and LC3-II)were detected by immunohistochemical method.The expressions of JNK mRNA,Beclin-1 mRNA and LC3 mRNA in hippocampus was detected by Real time-quantitative PCR.Results The necrotic nerve cells were seen in the hippocampus of SAH group in terms of nuclear dissolution, nuclear fragmentation or nuclear disappearance.Compared with Sham group, the level of MDA and the number of dead neurons, the expression of JNK mRNA, Beclin-1 mRNA and LC3-Ⅱ mRNA were increased in the SAH group (P<0.05).The survival rate of nerve cells in the SAH group was lower than that in the sham group.The immunoreactivity of phosphorylated JNK 、Beclin-1 and LC3-Ⅱ in the SAH group was enhanced than that in the sham group.However the damage of the morphological structure of nerve cells was relatively decreased in both doses groups.Compared with SAH group, the level of MDA and the expression of JNK mRNA in low dose Edaravone group and high dose Edaravone group were decreased.The expression of Beclin-1 mRNA and LC-3 mRNA was higher (P<0.05).Furthermore, the survival rates of nerve cells in both dosesgroups were higher than that in the SAH group (P<0.05).Meanwhile, the immunoreactivity of phosphorylated JNK in both doses groups was weakened than that in the SAH group.The mRNA expression of Beclin-1 and LC3-Ⅱ was increased(P<0.05).Conclusion Oxygen free radical played an important role in process of neuronloss by activating the JNK signaling pathway to regulate Beclin-1 and LC3-Ⅱ expression.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical value of 16-slice spiral CTA and methods of diagnosis of cerebral aneurysms.Methods: Fifty six cases of cerebral aneurysms with CTA image data were retrospectively analyzed from July 2012 to July 2014. Omnipaque (350 mgI/100 ml) as contrast agent was used in all cases with injection speed of 4.0 mL/s. The methods of VR, SSD, MIP, MPR, CPR and VE were involved in CTA images reconstruction and processing were implemented with workstation ADW4.2. The diagnosis value of cerebral aneurysms with different methods of vessel reconstruction was analyzed.Results: The location and the size of intracranial aneurysms could be clearly showed with 16-slice spiral CTA. The diagnosis time of methods VR and MIP was shortest and the mean time was 4.3 minutes and 5.1 minutes respectively. There was significant difference between the image and actual size in berry aneurysms with SSD method.Conclusion: The synthetic application of multimethod can improve the diagnostic value of 16-slice spiral CTA in cerebral aneurysms.

Xiao Zhi Ling Injection is a Chinese herbal aqueous solution of praeparatum which is mainly made of gallnut and alum, it can make a " strengthening body resistance " treatment in polytype tumors, mainly through promoting apoptosis of tumor cells, destructing tumor cells, inhibiting tumor growth, enhan-cing immunity of organism and so on, the clinical effect is certain, with the development of theory and tech-nology in tumor molecular biology, it has become the core of future research that how to further explore Xiao-Zhi-Ling injection to promote tumor cell apoptosis by impacting on related genes, and its lucubrate inevitably provide new hope in gene therapy of cancer.
