Antimicrobial peptides ( AMPs) are a kind of micromolecular peptides with antibacterial , antivirus and anti-tumor activities.Unlike conventional antibiotics , acquisition of resistance by a sensitive microbial strain against AMPs is surprisingly improbable .AMPs are not widely used clinically due to their toxicity , susceptibility to proteolysis and high manufacturing cost .Researchers have obtained some AMPs with high activity and low toxicity by structure modifications . The molecular design of AMPs as well as their development in the future are reviewed .

3.Uterine natural killer cells and pregnancy
Journal of Chinese Physician 2016;18(9):1429-1431
Uterine natural killer cells (uNK) are distinct from peripheral blood NK (pbNK) cells,which constitute up to 70% of the decidual leukocyte population in the first half of pregnancy,and are considered to have a cytokine-secreting role rather than cytotoxic function.It plays an important role in trophoblast invasion and uterine spiral artery remodeling.As a result of imbalance of uNK cells,pathological pregnancy appeared.Herein,the origin of uNK cells and its function in pregnancy were veviewed.
4.Application Analysis of Antitumor Chinese Herbal Injections of 32 Hospitals in Wuhan Area During 2010-2012
China Pharmacist 2014;(2):287-290
Objective: To investigate the current situation of consumption and development tendency of antitumor Chinese herbal injections in Wuhan area. Methods:The analytical method of the defined daily dose ( DDD) recommended by WHO was used to ana-lyze the application of antitumor Chinese herbal injections in 32 hospitals of Wuhan area during the period of 2010-2012. Results:The consumption sum and the DDDs of antitumor Chinese herbal injections were increased year after year, while the daily drug cost ( DDC) was stable in general. The sort of consumption was generally in accordance with the sequence of DDDs. Conclusion:The status quo of antitumor Chinese herbal injections during the period of 2010-2012 is in line with the characteristics of clinical application, indicating the use is rational.
5.Study on Mechanism and Clinical Significance of the Precordial ST Segment Deviations in Acute Inferior Myocardial Infarction Involving Adjacent Area
Tianjin Medical Journal 2000;28(12):707-710
Objective:To study the mechanism and clinical significance of the precordial ST segment deviations in acute inferiorwall myocardial infarction (AIMI) involving adjacent area. Methods: Characteristics of electrocardiogram were analyzed in118 patients with AIMI. Results: (1)The magnitude of ST segment elevation of inferior wall leads (Ⅱ, Ⅲ and aVF) wassignificantly negatively correlated with that of precordial leads (P<0.01). (2)The changed magnitude of ST segment oflead V2 (0.63±1.82 mm) and V2/aVF ratio (0.84±1.61) in 16 cases associated with right ventricular infarction weresignificantly higher than those of only inferior wall myocardial infarction group (V2:0.35±1.65 mm,V2/aVF ratio:0.29±1.28)(P>0.05 and P>0.05). (3)The magnitude of ST segment fall of lead V2(-1.20±1.52 mm) and V2/aVFratio (-0.33±1.15) in 38 cases associated with lateral-posterior wall in farction were higher than those of only inferiorwall infarction group (P<0.05). (4)If the cases associated with right ventricular and lateral-posterior wall infarction werenot included, the ST segment correlation coefficient between inferior and precordial leads would significantly increase inAIMI (r =-0.797, P<0.01). Conclusion:The directions of ST segment deviations of precordial leads elevate in casesassociated with right ventricular infarction and fall in eases associated with lateral-posterior wall infarction in AIMI.
6.Diagnosis and Management of Mondor Disease
Chinese Journal of Bases and Clinics in General Surgery 2003;0(02):-
Objective To review the epidemiology, etiology,pathology,clinical presentation,diagnosis and treatment,recurrance and prognosis of Mondor disease.Methods Literatures on Mondor disease were reviewed,and our study of Mondor disease was also included.Results Mondor disease is difficult to diagnose,but is with good prognosis in most patients.It's unclear whether Mondor disease is associated with the etiology of breast cancer.Conclusion The diagnosis and therapy of Mondor disease are important,especially when it is accompanied with breast cancer.
7.The correlation of dentofacial structure and the sagittal upper airway size in youthful nonsnoring men with malocclusion
Journal of Practical Stomatology 1996;0(02):-
Objective:To investigate the correlation of dentofacial structure and the sagittal size of the upper airway in youthful nonsnoring men with malocclusion.Methods:Lateral cephalometry was carried out in 52 nonsnoring males with malocclusion. The average age of the patients was 19.23 years, with a range of 18 to 24 years. Stepwise regression analysis was used to relate those cephalometric parameters to the sagittal airway size at different levels.Results:SNB angle,S-N length and H-C_3 length were the related variables to superior posterior airway space(SPAS). H-C_3 length,SNB angle and L1-MP angle were the related variables to middle airway space(MAS). SNB angle,H-C_3 length,S-N length and L1-MP angle were the related variables to inferior airway space(IAS).Conclusion:The sagittal upper airway size in youthful nonsnoring men with malocclusion is correlated to the dentofacial structure and the hyoid position.
8.The use of Ki-67 and anti-cytokeratin antibody(34?E12) in the differential diagnosis of prostate cancer
Cancer Research and Clinic 1997;0(03):-
Objective To study the role of Ki- 67 and anti- cytokeratin antibody 34?E12 in the differential diagnosis of prostate cancers. Methods 24 cases of prostate carcinoma and 30 cases of benign prostate hyperplasia were studied with immunohistochemical technique(SP). Results In 24 prostate cancers the average Ki- 67 index was 0.45?0.21, and that in 30 cases of benign hyperplasia was 0.12?0.09, the expression of Ki- 67 is higher in prostate carcinoma than benign prostate hyperplasia, there was static significance (P
9.Analysis of Current Status of Counterfeit Drugs and Difficulties of Identification in China
