Drug pair is the basic unit of compatibility of formulas.Through selecting the prescriptions of treating diseases of the liver in "Treatise on Cold Pathogenic Diseases" and "Synopsis of Golden Chamber",we,according to therapeutic methods,classify the commonly used drug pairs in treatment of hepatic disease of ZHANG Zhong-jing into eight kinds:regulating the flow of liver-qi,promoting blood circulation by removing blood stasis,dispersing pathogenic wind and calming liver wind,removing jaundice,clearing away liver-heat,expelling liver-cold and warming the liver,nourishing the liver,and harmonizing liver-spleen.And we try to find the compatibility law.

Objective: To explore the efficacy of evening medication of amlodipine combining valsartan on blood pressure (BP) and renal function in patients with abnormal nocturnal blood pressure. Methods: A total of 87 abnormal nocturnal BP patients without ideal efficacy by 4 weeks amlodipine therapy were randomly divided into 2 groups: Control group, based on amlodipine therapy, the patients received morning valsartan (80-160) mg, qd, n=43 and Observation group, based on amlodipine therapy, the patients received evening valsartan (80-160) mg, qd, n=44. All patients were treated for 8 weeks. Pre- and post-medication BP at day and night were observed by 24h ambulatory BP monitoring, the renal function was measured and the incidence of adverse events was recorded. Results: In Observation group: compared with pre-medication, the average day and night systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic BP (DBP) were decrease at post-medication; compared with Control group, Observation group had the lower night SBP and DBP, P<0.05; the day SBP and DBP were similar between 2 groups after medication. At post-medication, compared with Control group, Observation group presented improved renal function as decreased blood levels of BUN, Cr, β2-MG and increased eGFR, all P<0.05. The incidence of adverse events were similar between Observation group and Control group (6.28% vs 4.65%), P>0.05. Conclusion: Evening medication of amlodipine combining valsartan may effectively control night BP and improve renal function in patients with abnormal nocturnal BP; it didn't elevate the incidence of adverse events.

Studies in recent years have shown that the mesenchymal stem cells promote nerve repair and improve neurological function after ischemic stroke.As a major source of mesenchymal stem cells,bone mesenchymal stem cells have potential and broad prospects in the treatment of ischemic stroke.This article reviews the sources,characteristics of mesenchymal stem cells,and the pathogenesis of mesenchymal stem cell transplantation in the treatment of ischemic stroke and prospects.

Celastrol is a type of quinone methyl triterpene isolated from traditional Chinese medicine Tripterygium wilfordii, with pharmacological activities, like anti-inflammatory, immunosuppression and anti-tumor. This study focused on the effects of celastrol on adhesion, migration and invasion of lung cancer cells. The migration inhibition of lung cancer cells induced by celastrol was detected by the scratch test. The invasion inhibition of lung cancer cells induced by celastrol was measured by the transwell experiment. RT-PCR and Western blot were used to determine the effect of different concentrations of celastrol in integrin family and Akt signaling pathway in lung cancer cells. The results showed that celastrol inhibited adhesion, migration and invasion of lung cancer cells and expressions of integrins β3, β4, αv and phosphorylated Akt, GSK-3β, c-Raf, PDK1 in Akt signal pathway in a dose-dependent manner. Therefore, the study implies that Celastrol could inhibit the metastasis of lung cancer cells by suppressing Akt signaling pathway and expression of integrins.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti- CCP) anti-body in patients with rheumatoid arthritis(RA) in different agagroup.Methods Anti-CCP antibody was detected by ELISA in 220 cases of RA who were divided into three groups by onset age: juvenile group(n=24) ,adult group (n = 162) and older age group (n = 34).Results The ratio of anti-CCP in three groups were 14.3% (2/14), 81.7% (98/120) and 67.9% (19/28)(χ2 = 42.819, P <0.01).There was good coherence between the of anti-CCP and rheumatic factors (RF), with coherence coefficients of 71.4% (10/14 ), 82.2% (97/118) and 82.1% (23/28).Positive rank correlation was only found between anti-CCP and stages of X-rays(rs=0.243,P=0.002).Patients of juvenile group with anti-CCP were all present in poly-article subtype.There was a linear correlation be-tween anti-CCP and numbers of swollen joint, index of swollen joint in patients of juvenile group (r=0.563, P=0.045;r=0.574,P=0.040).The stage of both hand joints in older patients with anti-CCP positive was poorer than in those with anti-CCP negative[X-ray stage Ⅲ + Ⅳ was 52.2% (12/23), Ⅰ + Ⅱwas 0(0/9),χ2 =2.298,P =0.022].Conclusion The incidences of anti-CCP vary significantly among different age patients with RA.Anti-CCP in patients of juvenile group is related with poly-joint subtype, indicating the worsened swollen of joint.Anti-CCP in older age-onset patients with RA means the more severity of bone erosion.

Objective To study content and ascription of the composition of the polysaccharides from Zhou’s Prescription for Resolving Mass. Method The polysaccharide was extracted by ethanol precipitation, and purified by savage method. DEAE-cellulose anion exchange resin was used to prepare the composition of polysaccharides. UV-spectra was used to detect protein and IR-spectra was used to analyses the ascription of the composition of polysaccharides. The content of the composition of polysaccharides was determined by anthranone-sulfuric acid method. Result There was no absorption at 240 nm and 260 nm. The IR spectrum graph of the polysaccharides was similar to Polygonatum odoratum, Radix Ranunculi Ternati and Agrimonia pilosa Ledeb. The content of the composition of polysaccharides was 1.41%. Conclusion The composition of polysaccharides does not contain proteins and nucleic acids, and come from Polygonatum odoratum, Radix Ranunculi Ternati and grimonia pilosa Ledeb.

Objective:To investigate the effects of recombinant human interluekin-1 receptor antogonist (rhIL-1Ra) on the cartilage repair in rat temporomandibular joint(TMJ) with osteoarthritis(OA).Methods:Collagenase-Ⅱ was injected into bilateral TMJs of 24 adult rats for the induction of bilateral TMJOA,1 week after injection,5μg rhIL-1Ra(diluted in 0.05 ml normal saline) was injected into each right TMJ and the left joint received the same amount of normal saline injection as the control.12 animals were sacrificed at 2and 4 weeks after the first injection respectively.HE staining,immunnohistochemical method and RT-PCR examination were conducted.Mankins scere was used to evaluate the TMJOA degree.1 adult SD rat was used as healthy control,and sacrificed at 2 weeks of the experiment.Results:The TMJs of both sides showed typical OA-related cartilage degradation 2 week after IL-1Ra treatment,the Mankin~ score of the IL-1Ra treated and control joints was 1.33±0.52 and 2.00±6.63 (P＞0.05),4 week after treatment that was 3.00± 0.63 and 6.50 ± 0.84 (P＜0.05),respectively.Lower expression of ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5 was observed in the treated joints than in the controls (P＜0.05).Conclusion:Intra-articular injection of IL-1Ra into TMJ can alleviate the cartilage lesion,the mechanism may lie in the inhibition of the expression of ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5.

Diversified clinical practice mode will be explored preliminarily in population of Eight-year MD in military medical university.The successful teaching includes ideological education with military character,standard and systemic clinical traning,liberal arts education and emphasizing medical consciousness.

The second-stage-supervisor activity carried out by Medical school,Shanghai Jiao Tong University had good effect on promotion of students'learning attitude and behavior and had some implications on current medical education reform. Take the teaching practice of College of Stomatology,Shanghai Jiao Tong University for example,we discussed the student-centered teaching focusing on extracurricular activities in medical education reform.

On the guidance of student-centered course optimization,College of Stomatology,Shanghai Jiaotong University carried out reforms in stomatology introductory study as an elective course by establishing aims,revising teaching contents and methods,setting up new evaluation standards,which won students'universal acceptability.Meanwhile,the reformational prospect of bilingual teaching in the course was expected.
