Objective To observe IL-2 and IL-6 changes in the breast tumor Bcap-37 cells reated by hematoporphyrin nonomethyl ether mediated photodynamic therapy (HMME-PDT).Methods Cells in logarithmic growth phase were collected among breast cancer cells cultured in conventional methods.According to blank control group or the experimental group (laser irradiation group,photosensitive agent group and HMME-PDT group),PDT in addition to HMME and HMME-PDT were conducted.The changes of IL-2,IL-6 were detected by radioimmunoassay.Results After HMME-PDT,IL-2 was increased as time passed.After 12,24 and 48 h,compared with IL-2 level in the control group,in laser irradiation group or photosensitive agent group,the levels of IL-2 in HMME-PDT group was significantly differences (P < 0.05).But IL-6 levels decreased.The most obvious changes of IL-6 levels happened at 12h and 24h.There was significant differences between IL-6 in HMME-PDT group with the control group,laser irradiation group or photosensitive agent group (P < 0.05).Conclusion HMME-PDT maybe have destruction effect by altering IL-2,IL-6 activity on breast tumor cells,which provides objective indicators for clinical patients to regulate immune function and auxiliary diagnosis.

Objectives:To explore the possibility of using experimental animal models as a new means for studying the pathogenesis and symptomatologic development of radiation-induced lung injury,and provide theoretical and experimental evidences for early prevention and treatment with the traditional Chinese medicine.Methods:80 female Wistar rats were divided randomly into the model group and control group with 40 rats in each group respectively.The rats in model group were anesthetized and fixed,and a 2cm?3cm area of the right lungs received 6mV X-ray radiation at 3Gy?2/w and a maximal 10/5w.Eight rats randomly selected from each group were sacrificed at the end of weeks of 3,5,8,12 and 26.Diagnostic techniques of TCM were employed to analyze symptomatological and developmental characteristics of TCM in radiation-induced lung injury during exposure by dynamic examination and comparison of living rats,gross lung samples and tissue sections.Results: Signs and symptoms including redness around nose and eyes,yellowish secretion,tachypnea,dry stool,lethargy,sluggishness, inactiveness were observed in model group in early stage of radiation exposure,which consistent with dominant heat in the interior and primordial qi exhaustion syndrome.Swollen lungs,bright redness on surface and red bleeding patches were observed in early stage of radiation;microscopic examination showed interstitial tissues,and readily visible congestion,hemorrhage and edema of pulmonary interstitial tissues,consistent with damaged blood collaterals by heat and blood escaping circulation syndrome.In the later stage of radiation exposure,the lungs showed dark appearance,apparent purple petechia,hard texture and poor elasticity.Microscopic examination showed remote hemorrhage foci,pulmonary capillary stasis or closure,and focal fibrotic clumps,consistent with obstruction of collaterals by blood stasis syndrome.No abnormal changes were observed in the control group.Conclusions:Animal experiments can redeem the clinical inadequacy of traditional inspection,auscultation and olfaction,interrogation and feeling pulse and palpation diagnostic techniques,modern pathological methods can be utilized to study symptomatology of traditional Chinese medicine.Symptomatological and developmental characteristics of'heat toxin impairment in radiation-induced lung injury characterized by heat damaging pulmonary collateral syndrome in early stage and pulmonary collateral stagnation syndrome in the advanced stage'can be revealed at living organism,gross lung sample and microscopic pulmonary tissue levels,thus providing theoretical basis for early prevention and treatment of radiation-induced lung injury using'cooling blood to remove apthogenic heat'.

Objective To study current status of health education and explore its pattern in community health-care service(CHS)in Shanghai.Methods A total of 200 health-care workers(HCWs)from five CHS centers in Shanghai were investigated by questionnaire of health education knowledge.Results Among 200 HCWs investigated,96.5%(193/200)of them have recognized importance of health education,98.0%(196/200)could undertake health education in their clinical work,only 60.5%(121/200)had receired regular training on it,and 85.5%(171/200)thought they should be further trained regularly.Correct awareness of knowledge was 94.O%.47.0%and 33.6%for health education perception,healthy life-style and health education knowledge for chronic disease.respectively in them.There was very significant difference in correct awareness of knowledge between HCWs with varied ages and districts(χ2=17.663 and 82.376,P=0.001 and 0.000,respectively),but no significant difierence was found between men and women and those with varied professional titles(χ2=0.015 and 2.406,P=0.903 and 0.300.respectively).Short of time(48.5%),lack of relevant knowledge(15.0%)in HCWs and poor compliance of patients(33.0%)were main factors influencing their implementation of health education.Conclusions HCWs in CHS have already recognized importance of health education.but have not known enough its theoretical knowledge and skills.It is necessary to set guidelines of health education intervention for HCWs in CHS,and perfect monitoring and evaluation.as well as mechanism for rewards and penalties to promote development of health education in CHS.

Objective To evaluate the correlation between the irradiation dose and superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) enhanced MR imaging of the irradiated liver. Methods 25 rabbits were separated randomly into 5 groups. 3 days after focal irradiation (0, 10, 20, 30 and 40Gy), MR imaging was performed before and after SPIO injection with TSE-T 2W sequence, and the number of Kupffer cell containing SPIO particles was counted. The characteristics of MR enhancement were evaluated according to the pathological findings.Results The liver injury induced by no less than 30Gy irradiation can be detected by SPIO-enhanced T 2 weighted imaging (P

Objective To discuss the features of MRI and differential diagnosis of cerebral fat embolism syndrome(CFE).Methods The features of MRI of 4 final diagnosis cases of CEF were retrospectively analysed.Results MRI showed that there were spotty and patchy high T_2-weighted signals and some of them were low or equal signals on T_1-weighted.These signals were distributed in bilateral centrum semiovale,corona radiata,thalamus,deep part white matter of brain along the lateral ventricle,the cortex of brain of watershed,collose,brain stem and the hemisphere of cerebellum.The position of these abnormal signals was symmetric in the rough.The figure of the MRI signals in the midbrain liked the reverse Chinese number "eight".Brain swelling was showed in 2 of 4 cases.Conclusion There are some features of the CEF on T_2-weighted of MRI,but the history,the physical signal and the results of laboratory must be considered,and must be differential diagnosed with the diseases liking diffuse axonal injury,etc.
