1.Abnormal expression of BRMS1 and Cx43 protein in thyroid cancer occurrence and progression
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2015;42(11):550-554
Objective:To investigate the protein expression levels of breast cancer metastasis suppressor 1 (BRMS1) and Con-nexin 43 (Cx43) in thyroid cancer and their correlation with clinicopathologic parameters. Methods:Immunohistochemistry Streptavi-din-Peroxidase method was used to detect the BRMS1 and Cx43 protein expression in 195 tissue samples, including 90 cases with thy-roid carcinoma, 45 cases with thyroid adenoma, 30 cases with nodular goiter, and 30 cases with normal thyroid glands. Results:The positive rates of BRMS1 and Cx43 expression was 56.7%(51/90) and 41.1%(37/90) in thyroid carcinoma, respectively, which are sig-nificantly lower than the rates in thyroid adenoma, nodular goiter, and normal thyroid gland tissues (P<0.001). Of the three pathological types of thyroid cancer, the positive expression rate of Cx43 was 61.9%in papillary carcinoma, 27.8%in medullary carcinoma, 27.3%in follicular carcinoma, and 12.5%in undifferentiated carcinoma. Statistical differences in the BRMS1 expression among papillary car-cinoma and the other pathological types were also noted. Unlike the patients without lymph node metastasis, the positive expression of BRMS1 and Cx43 proteins were both significantly low among patients suffering from nodal metastasis. Subgroup analysis shows that the positive expression of BRMS1 and Cx43 protein gradually decreased with TNM staging. In addition, a positive correlation was ob-served between the BRMS1 and Cx43 protein expression (r=0.494, P=0.032). Conclusion:The decreased expression of BRMS1 and Cx43 proteins is significantly correlated with the metastasis of thyroid cancer and malignant grade. The combined detection of the two proteins can be ideal biomarkers for judging the prognosis of thyroid carcinoma.

Objective:To establish a model for the study of tooth initiation and early development by in vitro culture of mouse mandibular arch . Methods:42 mandibular arches of 11dpc fatal mouse were dissected and cultured in Trowell organ culture system for 11 days.Regular histologic observation was performed to observe the initiation and development of tooth.Results: Mandibular arches grew well in Trowell culture system.The initiation and early development of tooth was found.The explants maintained to cap stage.On day 11,necrosis of the cultured mandibular arches was observed and the culture was ended. Conclusion:In vitro cultured mandibular arch can be used as a model for the study of tooth initiation and early development.

Objective To study the effect of acupuncture cooperated with music therapy on cerebral palsy.Methods Sixty children with cerebral palsy were randomly divided into two groups with 30 in each: acupuncture group and acupuncture plus music group.The acupuncture group was treated with acupuncture only while the acupuncture plus music group treated with acupuncture at 5 groups of acupoints and music movement,once every other day,36 treatments as one course,totally 3 courses.The effect and movement improvement of both groups were observed for comparison.Results The comprehensive functions of all children were improved,but the total effective rate of acupuncture plus music group was obviously higher than that in acupuncture Group(P

OBJECTIVE:To explore the new mode of industry-university-institute unification for pharmacy professionals. METHODS:The research-teaching interactive platform was established through the principles of“complementary advantages, shared interests and mutual benefits”. RESULTS:It changed the traditional teaching mode,and it ensured the professional plan-ning,curriculum development and training objectives of students based on“4 analysis,2 setting and 1 implementation”. CONCLU-SIONS:The opportunities for cooperation between students and employers were broadened and students’awareness of innovation and entrepreneurship was enhanced. It cultivates project-based pharmaceutical,technical and skilled personnel,solves the problem of industry-university-institute unification and has certain significance for the development of China’s pharmaceutical education.

Objective To observe the efficacy and safety of fluticasone propionate ointment in the treatment of psoriasis vulgaris. Methods A randomized comparative clinical observation was performed in 68 patients with pso-riasis vulgaris, they were divided into experimental group and control group. The experimental group of 34 cases was treated with fluticasone propionate ointment and the control group of 34 cases with kenacort-A ointment. The response was evaluated at 6 weeks. Results The total effective rate of the experimental group was 94.1% and 70.6% in the control group after 6 weeks. There was a significant difference between the two groups in treatment effective rate(P<0.01). Conclusion It is effective and safety for fluticasone propionate ointment in the treatment of psoriasis vulgar-is.

Objective To study the release of synthetic gene expression induced by vasopressin Ⅱ (U Ⅱ ) in hypoxic pulmonary hypertension. Methods Rat model of HPH was establish. RIA was used to observe the different time points of hypoxia in plasma and the dynamic changes of U Ⅱ , ADM content in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). The impact of the release of U Ⅱ , as well as the relation-ship among U Ⅱ , ADM and HPH were explored to reveal the role of U Ⅱ in the pathophysiology of HPH. Results Rat HPH model was successfully established. Hypoxia promoted the expression, synthesis and release of U Ⅱ in lung tissue. U Ⅱ involved in the pathogenesis of HPH. HPH took place in the development of U Ⅱand was positive correlated with ADM. Conclusion The two peptides have opposite physiological effects on blood vessel, which suggest that these two peptides play an important role in maintaining the balance between the pul-monary circulation and lung ventilation as well as the stability of pulmonary artery pressure.

Acetylation regulated by histone deacetylases (HDAC) has a broad influence on plenty of physiological processes and regulation of malignant tumor.HDAC inhibitors can promote tumor cell apoptosis and have little effect on normal cells,so they have been developed a new kind of anti-tumor agent,and part of them have entered clinical trials.Vorinostat and romidepsin have been approved by FDA for treating cutaneous T cell lymphoma patients with progressive,persistent and recurrent disease.Studies of the molecular mechanisms of the HDAC inhibitors will contribute to the further clinical application.

Journal of Shanghai Jiaotong University(Medical Science) 2009;29(7):882-885
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is the most common complication of diabetes mellitus in nervous system. However, the pathogenesis is still unkown. Therapeutic options are mainly pathogenetically oriented therapy and symptomatic therapy. With an increasing understanding of the pathogenesis of DPN, many new therapies have emerged. Comprehensive therapy targeting different pathogenesis will be frequently applied in the future. In this article, the common therapy and advance in treatment of DPN are reviewed.
