Epigenetic abnormalities not only associated with carcinogenesis, they may also influence the curative effect and prognosis of anticancer drugs through modifying pharmacokinetic genes related to drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and pharmacodynamic genes related to signaling pathways and targets. That drugs through regulating epigenetic factors pocessing anti-cancer effect is becoming a research hot spot. We summarized and analyzed the realtionship of DNA methylation, miRNA, and histone modification with antitumor drug effect, aiming at promoting rational use of antitumor drugs and providing new ideas on developing epi-drugs.

OBJECTIVE: Improve the quality of testing in medical device manufacturers clean workshops to ensure the authenticity and reliability of testing data. METHODS: Analyze the problems and influencing factors found in the process of testing of medical device manufacturers clean workshops from 2016 to 2020, and put forward reasonable suggestions to ensure the quality of testing. RESULTS: In the process of testing, there are six factors that affect the quality of testing, including testing personnel, instruments and equipment, testing consumables, testing methods, testing environment and actual operation. CONCLUSIONS To improve the quality of testing, should strengthen the training of testing personnel, continuously improve the testing quality management system, establish an effective information communication mechanism, find out the influencing factors in time, provide objective, real and effective testing data for medical device manufacturing enterprises, and provide technical support for the production and supervision of medical devices.

In the era of genome-wide association study (GWAS), a large number of drug response-related loci have been identified in the non-coding sequences. The interpretation of these loci in mechanism is concerned with the effects on the mRNA expression level of these genes. Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) studies indicate the relationship of genome variants and the level of mRNA. Its elucidation of the relationship between genetic variation and gene expression, gene interaction and gene regulatory network provides an efficacious mean for pharmacogenomics. The effects of gene polymorphism on drug responses have been unraveled thoroughly in studies which combined pharmacogenomics with eQTL and GWAS.
