1.Research progress of glypican 3: a marker for hepatocellular carcinoma
Journal of International Oncology 2008;35(4):294-296
Tumor markers lay the foundation of early diagnosis for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Besides alpha-fetoprotein, glypican 3 is confirmed to be a novel tumor marker for HCC with high specificity and sensitivity, especially at immediately early stage of small carcinoma. Glypican 3 has high value of clinical application and may bring new hope for precise diagnosis of HCC.
2.Early prediction of breast cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2011;38(2):118-120
Between 40 to 60, especially after menopause, breast cancer have a higher incidence in women population. CA-153 ( carbohydrate antigen-153 ) is a tumor marker commonly used for monitoring breast cancer in clinic. However, CA-153 appears to have no clinical value for early diagnosis of breast cancer. Gene expression profiling technology becomes hot-spot through which some breast cancer related genes have been found. Moreover, the methods used for diagnosis of breast cancer also has certain shortcomings, and it is still uncertain that breast cancer is likely to be found at the early stage or be predicted in advance.
3.Trans-scleral ocular drug delivery for the treatment of posterior segment eye diseases
Chinese Journal of Ocular Fundus Diseases 2017;33(2):213-217
The human sclera accounts for 95% of the surface of the eyeball,providing ample contact area which is suitable for targeted trans-scleral ocular drug delivery.Currently there are several tans-scleral sustained-release strategies,including intra-scleral delivery,episcleral delivery,as well as tans-scleral iontophoresis.Different devices and methods have their own advantages and disadvantages,for example,intrascleral delivery is somehow invasive,and episcleral delivery device needs to be made thin to prevent erosion of conjunctiva,iontophoresis needs to be frequently repeated as of its short-term effect.With the development of bio-material engineering technology,episcleral microfilm could become an ideal drug delivery route for posterior segment ocular diseases.

Objective To investigate the lonely behavior characteristics and related factors of chronic obstruetive pulmonary disease(COPD)patients.Methods 99 eases with stable patients with COPD and 90 healthy subjects were surveyed by SDS,ESLI.Relevant factors were analyzed.Results Patients with COPD showed difierent degrees of emotional isolation[(9.90±3.97),(6.15±5.22),F=82.539,P<0.01)]and social intercourse isolation[(8.00±3.53),(4.31±2.46),F=73.540,P<0.01)].Emotional isolation was mainly.Moderate emotional isolation and general social intercourse isolation were predominant,and emotional(r=0.399,t=3.476,P<0.01)and social intercourse isolation(r=0.372,t=3.154,P<0.01)were related to depression.Conclusion Patients with COPD presented obvious emotion and social intercourse isolation behavior.

ObjectiveTo study the proper braking and bed rest time for patients with TACE operation. Methods Divided 236 patients with TACE operation into the control group (100 cases) and the experimental group (136 cases) randomly. In the control group, the braking time and the bed rest time was 8 hours and 24 hours respectively, while in the experimental group, they were 5 hours and 12 hours respectively.Compared incidence rate of complication between the 2 groups. Results The differences of complications which relevant to puncture between the two groups were not significant,P值=0.419, while the complications which irrelevant to the puncture between the two groups were significant,P

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of combined acupuncture and medicine in treating kidney deficiency and phlegm dampness syndrome in obese polycystic ovary syndrome. Method Sixty-four patients were randomly allocated to two groups. The treatment group received combined acupuncture and medicine and the control group, oral administration of metformin. The course of treatment was three months. Pre-treatment and post-treatment indicators were statistically analyzed in the two groups of patients. Result BMI, waist to hip ratio, fasting insulin, fasting blood glucose and HOMA-IR improved significantly in the treatment group of patients after treatment; there were statistically significant pre-/post-treatment differences (P<0.05). Post-treatment BMI and waist to hip ratio improved more markedly in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Combined acupuncture and medicine has a better therapeutic effect on kidney deficiency and phlegm dampness syndrome in obese polycystic ovary syndrome.

Objective To investigate the effects of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-?) on insulin sensitivity and glucose-lipid metabolism in TNF-?-induced IR mice. Methods Male C57BL/6J mice were given an intraperitoneal injection of TNF-? (H group,6?g/kg; M group,3?g/kg; L group,1?g/kg;twice daily) and saline (NC group) for 7 days. The plasma glucose and insulin were assayed during intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) and hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp combined with 3-[3H] glucose as a tracer was carried out. Results After TNF-? treatment,fasting blood glucose (FBG),plasma insulin and free fatty acids (FFA) were significantly elevated in H group compared with NC,L and M groups (P

Objective:Venous indwelling needle has been widely used in clinical treatment as a replacement of scalp acupuncture, and keeps constantly upgrading. Emergency use and nutrient supply by intravenous infusion through venous indwelling needle. The article discusses venous indwelling needle in clinical treatment for dermatological patients. Methods:It compares different complications through two different puncture and sealing methods of venous indwelling needle. Results:It summarizes highly possible complications during and after operating venous indwelling needle, and it proves that the latest puncture and sealing methods of venous indwelling needle could be better for those patients with skin damage, according to the different states of their skin and vein.

Transgenic animals are those in which recombinant DNA technology is used to remove a gene or a specific part of DNA with exogenous DNA, which is hereditable and can be expressed stably. Transgenic rodent technology, first demonstrated by Gordon in 1980,opened the door to the next step in biotechnology and gene regulation, which has been used to reproduce or mimic a part of a human disease in a complex cellular environment by creating in vivo models with germ line transmission of the introduced genetic regulatory elements. Animal models for drug discovery are developing increasingly, which is promoting the research and development new drugs greatly. The use and development of transgenic animals in pharmacological research is reviewed in this article.

Objective To observe the effect of retrograde sinus coronary perfusion on the function of myocardial cell membrane following retrograde sinus coronary perfusion Methods Thirty two isolated rabbit hearts were randomized into 4 groups: Group A, hearts were kept beating by retrograde perfusion with normothermic oxygenated blood; Group B, hearts received retrograde coronary sinus perfusion with warm blood cardioplegia; Group C, hearts received retrograde coronary sinus perfusion with cold blood cardioplegia; Group D, hearts received retrograde coronary sinus perfusion with cold crystalloid cardioplegia After 60 min retrograde perfusion, the hearts were switched on Langendorff Neely antegrade perfused working heart model for other 60 min Free calcium in myocardial cell, myocardial membrane MDA, ATPase and myocardial cell membrane fluidity were measured Results After retrograde coronary sinus perfusion, activity of ATPase and fluidity of the myocardial cell membrane in group A were higher than those in groups B, C and D The contents of myocardial cell membrane MDA and calcium in myocardial cell following retrograde perfusion were much lower in group A than those in groups B and C There was no remarkable difference between group C and group D Conclusion Retrograde perfusion of beating heart is superior to those perfused with warm blood cardioplegia in reducing free radical production, ameliorating paradoxical calcium accumulation in myocardial cell and maintaining activity of ATPase and fluidity of the myocardial cell membrane Warm blood cardioplegia is superior to cold blood cardioplegia
