Objective To investigate the significance of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2),vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) protein expression and angiogenesis in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods Tissue sec- tions from 40 HCC patients were examined immunohistochemically for protein expression of COX-2 and VEGF.Mi- crovessel density(MVD) was counted by endothelial cells immunostained by anti-CD34 antibody.Results The ex- pression of COX-2 protein in well differentiated HCC was stronger than that in moderately differentiated HCC and poorly differentiated HCC(P

Objective To investigate the clinical experience and scientific theory for treating hypertension by Zhou Yixuan. Methods The clinical records of 149 patients with hypertension treated by Zhou Yixuan were input into the database, and the terms were standardized. The Chinese medical diagnosis , therapeutic principles, prescriptions and Chinese herbs were analyzed. Results The syndromes of 149 patients with hypertension appeared frequently in the phlegm dampness, qi deficiency and blood stasis, qi and yin deficiency, hyperactivity of liver-yang, liver and kidney yin deficiency. The prescriptions appeared frequently in Shenling-Baizhu powder, Buyang-Huanwu decoction Shengmai powder, Tianma-Gouteng Yin, Liuwei-Dihuang pill. The Chinese herbs appeared frequently in honey-fried milkvetch root, finger citron, Szechwan lovage rhizome, danshen root, Chinese angelica, fructus corni, white peony alba, red peony root, prepared largehead atractylodes rhizome, spine date seed, orange fruit, coix seed, tangshen, silktree albizia bark, and leech. Conclusions The syndromes of hypertension appeared in deficiency complicated with excess. Qi deficiency, qi and yin deficiency, liver and kidney yin deficiency were deficiency syndromes. Hyperactivity of liver-yang, blood stasis and phlegm were empirical syndromes. Zhou Yixuan was good at treating hypertension with the methods of benefiting vital energy, nourishing yin, regulating vital energy, promoting blood circulation, reducing phlegm and calming the nerves.

ObjectiveTo investigate the positive rates of serum antibodies to TORCH in women who want to have a baby or in the early period of pregnancy.MethodsSerum TORCH-IgM or TORCH-IgG in 500 women were measured with IgM capture ELISA.ResultsThe positive rates of serum TORCH-IgM were 0 in TOX samples,0.2% in RV samples,0.2% in CMV samples,1.4% in COXB samples and 0 in HSV samples;while the positive rates of serum TORCH-IgG were 0.2% in TOX samples,51.6% in RV samples.ConclusionSerum TORCH-IgM and TORCH-IgG screening in women who want to be a mother or in the early period of pregnancy should be strengthened.

Objective: To propose updates and amendments for the nitroglycerin tablets quality in the Chinese pharmacopoeia 2020 due to the failure of effective separation of 4 known impurities and nonseparation of free nitrate ion and excipients.
Methods: Related substances were analyzed using gradient elution by HPLC, and free nitrate ion was determined on SAX column by different HPLC method.
Results: Using the improved method to test the related substances and free nitrate ion of nitroglycerin tablets,the content of the maximum individual impurity were not more than 0.5%, the total content was not more than 2.4% and the content of free nitrate ion was not more than 6.3%.
Conclusion: The improved method is accurate and feasible. It provided a reference for the updates and amendments of the quality standard of nitroglycerin tablets in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2020.

Objective To explore the effect of sodium arsenite (iAs3+) and sodium hydrogen arseuate (iAs5+) exposure on rat multidrug resistance protein 2 (MRP2) expression,and the correlation of liver arsenic and its methylation products,and to provide a basis for further elucidating the mechanism of arsenic toxicity.Methods Seventy wistar rats were randomly divided into seven groups,10 rats in each group.Control group was administrated with deionized water.Sodiun arsenite high-dose group,middle-dose group,low-dose group were administrated with different concentrations of sodium arsenite:20.0,6.7 and 2.2 mg/kg BW every day,respectively.Animals were sacrificed 90 days later by cervical dislocation to collect liver,the expression of MRP2 in the membrane of hepatocyte was determined by Western blotting.HPLC-HGAFS was employed to determine the content or level of arsenic and its methylation products.Correlation between expression of MRP2 and arsenic methylation products was analyzed using Pearson's linear correlation method.Results The MRP2 protein levels of control group,iAs3+ and iAs5+ high-,middle-,low-dose groups were 1.21 ± 0.13,1.85 + 0.09,1.65 + 0.19,1.61 + 0.18,1.69 + 0.04,1.42 + 0.19,1.27 ± 0.10.Compared to control group,MRP2 protein levels of iAs3+ high-,middle-,low-dose group and iAs5+ high-dose group were increased (P < 0.05); Compared with the low-dose group,MRP2 protein levels of iAs3+ and iAs5+ high dose groups were increased(P < 0.05); Comparing the matched doses group of iAs5+ and iAs3+,MRP2 protein levels of iAs3+ high-,middle-,low-dose group were higher than iAs5+(P < 0.05).Meanwhile,there was a significant positive relationship between the expression of MRP2 and the content of iAs3+,MMA and DMA in iAs3+ exposed group(r =0.575,0.678,0.395,all P < 0.05).There was also a significant correlation between the expression of MRP2 and MMA and IMA in iAs5+ exposed group(r =0.593,0.643,all P < 0.05).There was no significant relationship between the expression of MRP2 and the content of iAs5+in iAs5+ exposed group.Conclusions The expression of MRP2 is increased with increasing dose of arsenic exposure,thus resulting in compensatory changes on MRP2 expression in the liver cell membrane.MRP2 efflux may play an important role in the metabolic pathways of iAs3+.The level or load of arsenic methylation in liver is closely related with MRP2 expression.
