Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2012;11(8):840-843
Language,as a cartier of specified social culture,is closely and complementarily associated with it.Considering the especial education targets of medical universities and colleges,the present curriculum and the trend of international communication,College English is obliged to focus on humanistic value and necessarily plays its constructive role in heightening students' humanistic quality.
2.Progress of relationship between diabetes and papillary thyroid cancer
Chinese Journal of Diabetes 2017;25(7):670-672
Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common type in thyroid carcinomas.Recently,the prevalence and diagnostic rate of PTC has got significantly high with the general use of ultrasound.Nowadays,more and more studies have suggested that the coexistence of PTC and diabetes is common.They indicated that hyperglycemia would induce the deterioration of oxidative stress injury,chronic inflammation,insulin resistance,obesity,dyslipidemia,deficiency of vitamin D and dysimmunity.All of these may break the balance of oxidation and antioxidation and result in disordering signal pathway,accumulation of inflammatory cytokines,over activating of insulin and insulin-like growth factor-1,changing the metabolic pathways,which will promote the occurrence and progression of PTC.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), an important component of complementary and alternative medicine, has evolved over thousands of years with its own unique system of theories, diagnostics and therapies. TCM has been increasingly used in the last decades and become well known for its significant role in preventing and treating cancer. We believe that TCM possesses advantages over Western medicine in specific aspects at a certain stage of cancer treatment. Here we summarize the advantages of TCM from three aspects: preventing tumorigenesis; attenuating toxicity and enhancing the treatment effect; and reducing tumor recurrence and metastasis.

Objective To investigate the effect of eosinophils(EOS)in asthmatic guinea pigs airway and explore the mechanism of antiasthma by inhaled arsenic trioxide. Methods The guinea pigs asthma models were established with ovalbumin(OVA)challenge method,2 groups received inhaled different doses of arsenic trioxide,and three control groups respectively received normal saline inhaled and high dose of arsenic trioxide by intraperitoneal injection and dexamethasone(DEX)intraperitoneally. EOS invaded and apoptosis with all of the groups were assessed after 7 days intraperitoneal injection or inhalation. Results Compared with group of inhaled normal saline, both EOS invaded and apoptosis in bronchus submuconsa were significantly different(P0.05)among groups of inhaled low dose arsenic trioxide [2.0 mg(kg?d)]and intraperitoneal injection with higher dose arsenic trioxide[5.0 kg/(kg?d)]and DEX[10 mg/(kg?d)]for these two parameters. Conclusions The mechanism of arsenic trioxide antiasthma with arsenic trioxide can decrease EOS amount in bronchial submucosa and accelerate EOS apoptosis, and relieve bronchial inflammation in asthma. For inhaled lower dose arsenic trioxide or intraperitoneal injection with high dose arsenic trioxide ,the effect of EOS is equivalent. The antiasthma effect of inhaled lower dose arsenic trioxide[2.0 mg/(kg?d)]is equivalent to intraperitoneal injection higher dose[5.0 mg/(kg?d)],and may be safe comparatively. The mechanism of antiasthma by inhaled arsenic trioxide is the same with DEX.
7.Changes of neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin after endoplasmic reticulum stress by thapsigargin in renal tubular epithelial cells
International Journal of Pediatrics 2017;44(5):352-355
Objective To observe the changes of neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin,NGAL after endoplasmic reticulum stress by thapsigargin in renal tubular epithelial cells.Methods The renal tubular epithelial cells were treated with thapsigargin to establish the model of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER group).CHOP and GRP78 expression were detected by Western-blot to confirm endoplasmic reticulum stress in renal tubular epithelial cells by thapsigargin.NGAL expression were detected by Western-blot in ER group and control group(normal renal tubular epithelial cells).Results After treated with 2.5 μmol/L and 5 μmol/L thapsigargin for 4 hours and 8 hours respectively,endoplasmic reticulum stress in the renal tubular epithelial cells were significantly increased comparing with control group (0.585 ± 0.045 to 0.523 ± 0.030;0.785 ± 0.049 to 0.728 ± 0.064),which was approved by the increased expression of CHOP and GRP78 (P < 0.05).The expression of NGAL was significantly increased in ER group (0.567 ± 0.024 to 0.826 ± 0.057,P < 0.05) and it was corresponded with the changes of CHOP and GRP78,which increased significantly with the severity of endoplasmic reticulum stress.Conclusion Endoplasmic reticulum stress can be induced by thapsigargin in renal tubular epithelial cells.The expression of CHOP,GRP78 and NGAL were significantly increased correspondingly with the severity of endoplasmic reticulum stress.It is speculated that the expression of NGAL may be related with endoplasmic reticulum stress in tubular epithelial cells.

Objective To make a status survey on type2 diabetic patients with metabolic Syndrome in middle-aged inhabitants.Methods 338 inpatients with type 2 DM including 179 male and 159 female,aged 46?5 years,with complete records in the computer database.Results The prevalent rates of the complications in group of 40~yrs type2 diabetic patients were 17.8% combined with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease,50.9% with hypertension,18.1% with left ventricular dilatation,53.6% with hypertriglyceridemia,46.2% with lower HDL,54.7% with obesity and 38.8% with metabolic Syndrome,respectively.These prevalent rates in the 40-year-old group were all lower than those in groups above 60 years,and the rates was higher in patients whose BMI was above 25(kg/m2).Conclusion There was high prevalence in type 2 diabetic patients with metabolic Syndrome,and was related with the age and obesity.Obesity was an independent risk factor for MS.

Aim To investigate the reversal of resistance to doxorubicin by CJZ3,a lomerizine derivative,in doxorubicin-resistant human myelogenous leukemia(K562/DOX)cells.Methods The effect of CJZ3 on P-glycoprotein(P-gp)function and resistance to doxorubicin in K562/DOX cells were observed by using flow cytometry and MTT assay.Results CJZ3 increased intracellular uptake and accumulation of rhodamine123(Rh123)in K562/DOX cells in a concentration-related manner,significantly inhibited the efflux of Rh123 from the cells,and increased the doxorubicin-induced cytotoxicity,apoptosis rate,Caspase-3 activity in doxorubicin-treated cells and the intracellular accumulation of doxorubicin.Conclusions The reversed effect of CJZ3 on resistance to doxorubicin in K562/DOX cells was associated with its inhibitory effect on P-gp function in vitro.
