0.05),but the positive degrees were distinctly different(P0.05). Conclusion:The status of p53 may be related with multidrug resistance and the p53 positive tumors possibly show low sensitivity to chemotherapy.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and security of combined recombinant human endostatin with GP chemotherapy for the treatment of advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods Non- randomized concurrent control was used.32 patients were treated by recombinant human endostatin combined with chemotherapy as test group,40 patients of control group only received chemotherapy.The response rate (RR),the clinical benefit rate (CBR) and the time to progression (TTP) were observed.Results The total RR in two groups were 40.6 ％ and 20.0 ％ (x2 =3.66,P =0.07).The total CBR were 68.8 ％ and 42.5 ％ (x2 =4.93,P =0.034).The total time to progression were 5.2 months and 3.9 months (P =0.042).Incidence of adverse reactions of experimental group and control group was no significant difference.Conclusion Combined recombinant human endostatin and chemotherapy can improve the curative effect (RR,CBR and TTP) of advanced NSCLC.

Aim Tostudytheinfluencesofsulfated polysaccharides ( SPPM60-D) on the regulation of free calcium concentration ( [ Ca2+] i ) of T lymphocytes of mice in vitro and explore the mechanisms involved. Methods Polysaccharides(PPM60)wereextracted from masson pine pollen with hot water and 60% etha-nol. PPM60-D was separated and purified from PPM60 with Sephacryl S-400HR. Sulfated polysaccharides ( SPPM60-D ) were derivated by chlorosulfonic acid-pyridine method and the [ Ca2+] i of T lymphocytes were measured by fluorescence spectrophotometer. IL-2 and IL-4 were measured by ELISA kits. Results ConAandSPPM60-Dcouldincrease[Ca2+]iinT lymphocytes by 211. 5% and 201. 8% respectively ( P<0. 01). 2-APB, LY294002, U73122 and verapamil rather than TAK-242 could significantly inhibit the in-crease of [ Ca2+] i induced by SPPM60-D. SPPM60-D could significantly increase the level of IL-2 and IL-4 in supernatant ( P <0. 01 ) . 2-APB rather than TAK-242 could significantly inhibit the increase of cyto-kines.Conclusion ItisspeculatedthatSPPM60-D could increase [ Ca2+ ] i via TCR/CD3-PI3K-PLC-IP3 R-Ca2+ signal pathway through TCD/CD3 receptor in T lymphocytes so that it could improve the level of IL-2 and IL-4 in supernatant in T lymphocytes.

Part of the patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) may develop ischemic stroke.Some of them may die because of complicating cardiovascular disease.Studies in recent years have shown that the ABCD2 score has an important value in the evaluation of the prognosis of TIA.This article summarizes the source and application of the ABCD2 score,and focuses on the roles of the score in the evaluation of the prognosis of TIA.

Objective To investigate the risk factors related to mortality of children with deep fungal infection in pediatric intensive care unit(PICU).Methods A retrospective case-control study was applied.Ninty-six patients admitted to PICU with clinical or definite diagnosis of deep fungal infection from Nov 2005 to Mar 2009 were included.The risk factors related to mortality wereanalyzed with the logistic regression analysis.The research factors included:sex,age,primary diseases,complications,invasive operations and therapeutic measures etc.Results Of all 96 children,28 died (28.2％).According to the analytical results of multivariate logistic regression,the variables significantly associated with mortality were immunosuppressive (OR =185.770,95 ％ CI 11.467 ～ 3 009.507),mechanical ventilation (OR =11.555,95 ％ CI 2.780 ～ 48.039),hypoproteinemia (OR =1.246,95％ CI 1.133 ～ 1.369) and low pediatric critical illness score (OR =1.086,95 ％ CI 1.008 ～ 1.169).Conclusion The risk factors related to mortality of children with deep fungal infection in PICU were immunosuppressive,mechanical ventilation,hypoproteinemia and low pediatric critical illness score.

Objective:To investigate the antiangiogenesis ability of 5 FU. Methods:Human umbilical vein endothelial cells were cultured primarily in vitro and influence of 5 FU on HUVEC proliferation was evaluated by MTT method. Chick chorilallantoic membranes(CAM) model was used to check whether the neovascularization of CAM could be suppressed in vivo . Results:5 FU both inhibited proliferation of HUVEC in vitro and suppressed angiogenesis of CAM in vivo at none cytotoxic doses. Conclusion: 5 FU demonstrated antiangiogenesis ability without obvious cytotoxicity.
