WIF-1 is an important antagonist in the Wnt/?-catenin pathway.As a tumor suppressor, WIF-1 is down-regulated in majority cancers but when it is correlated with WIF-1 promoter hypermethylation and treated with demethylation drug, its expression can be restored.Functional loss of WIF-1 due to promoter hypermethylation plays an important role in a tumor's pathogenesis, possibly mainly through aberrant canonical Wnt/?-catenin signal activation.The correlation of the expression of WIF-1 with clinicopathological features in different cancers is not identical.Detecting WIF-1 and promoter hypermethylation may offer help for early diagnosis, therapy and predicting prognoses.

The efficacy of intravitreal injection of anti vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) drug has been recognized for the treatment of choroidal neovascularization(CNV) secondary to age-related macular degeneration(AMD), central exudative chorioretinopathy and pathological myopia, proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), retinal vein occlusion, retinopathy of prematurity and neovascular glaucoma. The tendency of clinic application of anti-VEGF is increasing. Though the therapeutic effect of anti-VEGF has been confirmed, a variety of complications associated with its usage were reported. This review summared the advancement of the complication in the clinical application of anti-VEGF therapy such as its effect on normal structure and physiological function of eye, intraocular pressure elevation, rips of retinal pigment epithelium(RRPE), retinal detachment(RD), endophthalmitis and systemic side-effects.

Objective To investigate neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus of adult rat following conditioned fear stimulus.Methods 24 adult male rats were randomly divided into conditioned fear stimulus group and control group,and all rats were intraperitoneally injected bromodeoxyuridine(BrdU)3 days before conditioned fear stimuli.Animals in conditioned fear stimulus group were given monotone matching foot shock and made conditioned fear stimulus model,animals in control group only give monotone.Freezing time was detected before stimuli and 7th,14th days after stimuli,then rats were sacrificed 7th or 14th day after fear conditioned stimulus,and immunohistochemistry for Brdu was detected.Results Behavioral assessment showed that the percents of freezing time in conditioned fear stimulus group 7th,14th days after conditioned fear stimulus were significantly high(88.68%,91.33%)than those in control group(11.18%,14.23%,P<0.01)and before stimulus(24.11%,16.11%,P<0.01).Compared to control group(1567±28,580±5),Brdu positive cells in dentate gyrus of rat in conditioned fear stimulus group(1364±21,296±22)were decreased,and it reached to a statistical significance on 14th day (P<0.05).Conclusion The decreased neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus of adult rat following conditioned fear stimuli may have relation to fear and other emotion memory.

Human parvovirus B19, generally referred to as B19 virus, has been closely associated with a variety of different autoimmune diseases due to the features of its capsid protein. B19 virus VP1 unique region protein that has sites of phospholipase A2 and several antigenic determinants is exposed on the outside of the viral capsid protein. As a result of that, B19 virus VP1 unique region protein can stimulate the host to produce autoantibodies, which induces and/or aggravates the autoimmune diseases. The biological characteristics of B19 virus VP1 unique region protein and its relationships with autoimmune diseases are de-scribed in this review based upon the published literatures and the work achieved by our research team. This review will be helpful to the prevention and treatment of B19 virus infection.

Objective To observe the effect of Zusan Li acupoint injection with Chuankezhi injection ( CI) combined with chemotherapy on the quality of life in the stage III or IV senile patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) . Methods We adopted research methods for the prospective, randomized, and controlled trial. A total of 62 qualified patients completed the treatment program, and were randomly divided into two groups. Thirty-two patients in the test group received CI combined with chemotherapy and syndrome differentiation treatment, and 30 patients in the control group were given chemotherapy and syndrome differentiation treatment. We used the WHO Quality of Life Older Module Scale ( WHOQOL-OLD) , Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Lung ( FACT-L V4.0) and the Brief Fatigue Inventory ( BFI) to evaluate and analyze the quality of life before and after treatment. Results (1) In the WHOQOL-OLD evaluation, the total scores and the scores of dimensions of sensory abilities, autonomy, social participation, and past, present and future behavior were much improved in the test group after treatment ( P﹤0.01 compared with those before treatment) , while the control group only had statistically significant difference ( P﹤0.01) in the improvement of social participation and the total scores. The test group had higher scores difference in autonomy than the control group (P<0.01) . (2) In the FACT-L V4.0 evaluation, the total scores and the scores of domains of physiological condition, emotional status, functional status, and additional attention were much improved in the test group ( P﹤0.01 compared with those before treatment) , and the control group had an improvement in the total scores and scores of emotional status and additional attention after treatment ( P<0.01) . The test group had higher scores difference in physiological condition, functional status, and additional attention than the control group (P<0.01) . (3) In BFI evaluation, the degree of fatigue and fatigue influence were improved in both group after treatment ( P﹤0.01 compared with those before treatment) , and the improvement in the test group was superior to that in the control group ( P<0.05) . Conclusion Zusan Li acupoint injection with CI can improve the quality of life of senile NSCLC patients treated with chemotherapy in dimensions of sensory abilities, autonomy, social participation, and past, present and future behavior, and in domains of physiological conditions, functional status, additional concern, and it can also improve the degree of fatigue and fatigue influence.
