Tumor recurrence and drug resistance impact patients'therapeutic effect and prognosis seriously.In recent years,it has been found that epigenetic changes are involved in drug resistance.DNA methylation is one of the ways of epigenetic.DNA methylation of drug metabolism enzyme gene can affect gene's expression,leading to drug resistance.Methotrexate(MTX),a folic acid antagonist,is the most widely used drug in the treatment of malignant tumors,such as leukemia,osteosarcoma,head and neck cancer,and so on.Reduced folate carrier(RFC) is the main transporter cartier of MTX,and gene methylation is related to tumor cells'resistance to MTX.This paper reviews the role of RFC,relation of RFC methylation and methotrexate resistance and the factors of RFC methylation.

Objective To explore the changes of GRO-α and VEGF in the peritoneal fluid of women with endometriosis and their correlation. Methods The levels of GRO-α and VEGF were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA ) method in 39 cases of endometriosis and 25 normal cases of without endometriosis. Results The levels of GRO-αand VEGF in the peritoneal fluid of EMs group were ( 108.77 ± 20. 58 ) pg/ml and ( 199. 67 ± 99. 26 ) pg/ml separately, and it was significantly higher than those in control group ( 71.07 ± 18. 96 ) pg/ml, ( 115.46 ± 32. 39 ) pg/ml. The differences were statically significant( P <0. 05). The level of GRO-α in the peritoneal fluid of the patients in stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ was sig-nificantly lower than that in stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ[(99.43 ± 16.05)pg/ml vs (117.65 ± 20.8)pg/ml, P <0. 05] , while the level of VEGF in the peritoneal fluid of the patients in stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ was significantly higher than that in stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ[(246. 89 ± 114. 34) pg/ml vs ( 152. 82 ± 54. 55 ) pg/ml, P < 0. 05] .There was positive correlation between the level of GRO-α and r-AFS ( r = 0. 439, P < 0. 05 ), but no cor-relation between the level of VEGF and r-AFS ( r = -0. 210, P >0.05). There was no correlation be-tween peritoneal fluid levels of GRO-α and VEGF in the EMs group ( r =-0. 05, P>0. 05). Conclusion Compared with control group, the levels of GRO-α and VEGF in peritoneal fluid of women with endome-triosis were significantly increased, which indicated that the increased GR0-α and VEGF secretion involved in the pathogenesis of this disease. There was correlation between the peritoneal fluid level of GRO-α and the degree of EMs.

Objective To explore the conversion rate of iodate ions (IO3-) being reduced to iodide ions (I-) by ascorbic acid (C6HsO6,VC) in simulated human gastric juice,and to provide references for further safety evaluation of edible salt iodized with potassium iodate.Methods An ion chromatography method was developed to detect iodide ions in simulated gastric juice.The conversion rate of iodate ions being reduced to iodide ions was used as the index for scavenging rate of iodate ions.In simulated gastric juice in vitro and in 37 C water bath,the scavenging effects of VC on iodate ions were determined in simulated gastric juice with different VC concentrations and simulated gastric juice acidities,as well as for different reaction time.Ion chromatography column:Dionex IonPac AS19 (250 mm × 4.0 mm);eluent:KOH 30 mmol/L (online produced),isocratic eluting,flow rate 1.0 ml/min,injection volume 100 μl,and detected by a conductivity detector.Results Performance of the method:within the range of 0-5 000 μg/L,iodide ions concentration and the chromatographic peak area had a good linearity (correlation coefficient r =0.999 7),and the detection limit of iodide ions was 20 μg/L.For quantification of iodide ions in simulated gastric juice,the relative standard deviation (RSD) of repeated measure for 6 times was ＜ 2.0％,the standard addition recovery rate was 97.6％-102.4％,and the overall average recovery rate was 99.4％.In the simulated gastric juice with a pH of 1.4 containing 5 mg/L and ≥ 10 mg/L VC,the reaction time to achieve 100％ conversion rate of iodate ions being reduced to iodide ions was 5 min and 2 min,respectively.In the simulated gastric juice with a pH of 3 containing 10 mg/L ascorbic acid,the reaction time to achieve 100％ conversion rate was 15 min.VC quantitatively reduced iodate ions to iodide ions by the stoichiometric relationship between reactants of the reduction reaction equation,and every 100 μg VC quantitatively reduced 24.0μg of iodine in iodate to iodide ions.Conclusions In simulated gastric juice,the reaction of iodate ions being reduced to iodide ions by VC is a stoichiometric reaction with relatively fast reaction rate,the scavenging rate of iodate ions by VC within the concentration level in human gastric juice can reach 100％.The results prompt that the iodate ions from edible salt iodized with potassium iodate in daily diet are reduced to iodide ions mainly in the human stomach.

objective To evaluate the clinical implications of perioperative serum albumin (ALB),pre-albumin(PA)and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)changes in surgical patients.Methods This study included 103 surgical cases undergoing major,moderate or minor surgery respectively.Perioperative serum ALB.PA and hs-CRP levels were measured.Results were compared with 56 normal controls. Results Pre-and postoperative ALB was(43.6±5.1)g/L and(35.8±5.3)g/L in major surgery patients compared with that of(45.0±3.7)g/L and(38.3±5.7)g/L in moderate or minor surgery patients,both were significantly lower than that of(46.7±2.9)g/L in control group(F=54.07,P＜0.05);Pre-and postoperative PA level was(246±68)mg/L in major surgery patients while that was (270±53)mg/L and(207±70)mg/L respectively in moderate or minor surgery group,that in both groups were lower than that(279±40)mg/L in control group(F=41.18,P＜0.05),Pre-and postoperative hsCRP level was(5.3±5.1)mg/L and(12.7±4.2)mg/L in major surgery patients compared with that of (4.5±3.6)mg/L and(11.1±4.3)mg/L in moderate or minor surgery patients,again both that in the two groups were much higher than that of(1.0±0.7)mg/L in control group(F=69.87,P＜0.05).Conclusions Combined detection of serum ALB,PA and hs-CRP levels is a measure of surgical trauma especially for these patients suffering from postoperative infections.

Objective To observe the effect of team-based continuous nursing on improving the life function of children with cerebral palsy. Methods From March 2014 to March 2016, 35 children aged 18-36 months with cerebral palsy were selected as the experimental group;35 matched patients with the same age, same gender, same Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) and functionally similar were selected as the control group by matching design. Among them, 32 cases were followed up in the experimental group while 30 cases in the control group. In the control group, routine discharge education was adopted, but the experimental group was treated by team-based continuous nursing. The ability of daily living was evaluated by the Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory (PEDI). Neuropsychological development was evaluated by the Gesell Development Scale and Body balance was evaluated by the Berg Balance Function Scale after discharge and also after 6 months follow-up. Results After the intervention for 6 months, the functional skill and assisting assistance of PEDI was (77.56 ± 23.58), (38.78 ± 13.96) points in the experimental group, and (65.12 ± 24.23), (30.35 ± 12.78) points in the control groups, there were significant differences between two groups(t=2.0485, 2.4750, P<0.05). The scores of Gesell Development Scale was (76.12 ± 18.35) points in the experimental group, and (71.85 ± 18.46) points in the control group, there were no significant differences between two groups(P>0.05) , but the experimental group was higher than the control group. The scores of Berg Balance Function Scale was(33.20 ± 4.12) points in the experimental group, and (29.67 ± 4.98) points in the control group, there were significant differences between two groups (t = 3.0488, P<0.05). Conclusions To improve the life function of children with cerebral palsy, the implementation of the team-based continuous nursing had a significant effect.
