The abnormal expression of gastrins and their receptors have close relationship with the occurrenceand the development of some colorectal neoplasms.The high expression of gastrins and their receptors promote colorectal neoplasms cell proliferation and inhibit apoptosis.The biological behavior is mainly rely on the abnormal expression of protein.Using differential proteomics can screen differential expression protein of high expression of gastrin-based colorectal neoplasms in the occurrence and development process,and then with the regulation of specific proteins to achieve the prevention and treatment of colorectal neoplasms purposes.

Primary and secondary prevention clinical trials have demonstrated that statins markedly reduced cardiovascular risks even in patients whose plasma level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol is lower than that of drug-treatment goal in lipid management guidelines. The reasons are as follows: The "normal" level in guidelines is not the normal level biologically, it is merely an average value in a given human group; The composition of plasma lipids is very complex; Statins have effects other than lipid modifying. Statins should be prescribed in patients without hyperlipidemia but with risk factors or coronary heart disease.

The risk of stroke increases significantly after transient ischemic attack (TIA). TIA is an independent risk factor for cerebral infarction. This article review s the advances in prediction models of stroke risk after TIA in order to conduct rapid and accurate risk assessment and stratification in patients w ith TIA and develop timely reasonable treatment strategies, thereby reducing the risk of stroke.

This research is to investigate study the flavonoids from stems of Nelumbo nucifera and the cytotoxic activities of iso- lated compounds. The constituents were separated by column chromatography,and their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic data analyses. The isolated compounds were evaluated for cytoxic activities by MTT method. Twelve compounds were isolated and identified as rhamnazin-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (1), luteolin-3', 4'-dimethylether-7-O-beta-D-glucoside (2), kaempferol-3-O-beta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1-->2)-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (3), quercetin-3,3'-di-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (4), 1, 8-dihydroxy-3,7-dimethoxyxanthone (5), isorhamnetin-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside(6) , kaempferol(7), isorhamnetin (8), quercetin(9), astragalin(10), hyperoside (11) and 1-hy- droxy-3,7,8-trimethoxyxanthone(12). All compounds were isolated from stems of this plant for the first time, and compounds 1-5 were firstly isolated from the family nelumbonaceae. Compounds 24 and 6 showed significant cytotoxic activities against BEL-7402 carcinoma cell lines at a concentration of 1 x 10(-5) mol x L(-1) with the inhibitory rate of 67.36%, 53.25%, 57.78%, 60.13% and 52.11%, respectively.

Objective To investigate the effect of FTY720 and gemcitabine on the proliferation and apoptosis of H520 and A549 cells in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) cell line.Methods The interventional influence on the in vitro cultured NSCLC A549 and H520 cells was performed by selecting 0,2,4,6,8,10 μmol/L concentrations of FTY720,then the absorbance value was detected at 24,48,72 h after culture and the proliferation inhibiting effects of FTY720 on A549 and H520 were observed under the condition of different concentration of FTY720;adding single 7 μmol/L of FTY720,single 0.2 μmol/L gemcitabine and 37 μmol / L FTY720 combined with 0.2 mol/L gemcitabine into A549 and H520 cells lines,then the differences of inhibition and apoptosis after 48 h in the cells of each group were observed.Results The inhibitory effect of different concentrations of FTY270 on NSCLC A549 and H520 cell lines was statistically significant difference (P＜0.05).The proliferation inhibiting effect of FTY720 on NSCLC H520 and A549 cell lines had the correlation with the concentration and time.The apoptosis rate of FTY720 combined with gemcitabine on A549 and H520 cells was significantly higher than that of single use in these two drugs (P＜0.05).Conclusion FTY720 combined with gemcitabine can significantly inhibit the proliferation of A549 and H520 in human NSCLC,and can effectively promote the apoptosis of cancer cells,and has the higher clinical value.

BACKGROUND:With the development of sports medicine and rehabilitation medicine, electromechanical delay has been looked as an important index for evaluating the neuromuscular function at abroad. But the relevant research is little reported in China. OBJECTIVE:To review the literatures related to electromechanical delay published in recent years, and to explore the mechanisms, influential factors and the application status of the electromechanical delay, thereby providing reference for clinical practice and research. METHODS:A computer-based search of CNKI, WanFang and PubMed databases was performed for articles addressing electromechanical delay published from February 1979 to February 2017. The keywords were electromechanical delay, electro-mechanical response time in English and Chinese, respectively.Repeated and old studies were excluded, and finally 44 eligible literatures were included, including 3 Chinese and 41 English articles. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The mechanisms of electromechanical delay have been clarified. The type of muscle fiber and the level of muscle fatigue can influence electromechanical delay, but the underlying mechanisms still remain unclear. Whether age and gender make effect on electromechanical delay is controversial. Electromechanical delay is not only used for evaluating the athletes' ability to reaction, but also wildly used to investigate the mechanism of various sports injuries and evaluate the effectiveness of rehabilitation.

Purpose To explore the role of expression of MMP-9 and MMP-13 in non-small cell lung cancer ( NSCLC) , and to investi-gate their association with the clinicopathologic feactures and prognosis of NSCLC. Methods The expression of MMP-9 and MMP-13 was detected in 88 NSCLC tissues and 18 adjacent normal tissues by immunohistochemistry SP method. Results The expression of MMP-9 and MMP-13 was higher in NSCLC than that in adjacent normal tissues (P<0. 05), which was positively correlated with dif-ferentiation and lymph node metastasis (P<0. 05). The expression of MMP-9 was positively correlated with age (P<0. 05), which was positively correlated with the expression of MMP-13 in NSCLC ( P <0. 05 ) . The survival rates in positive expression group of MMP-9 and MMP-13 were significantly lower than that of the negative expression group by log-rank method comparing survival curves (P<0. 05). Cox model analysis showed that the tumor size, lymph node metastasis and MMP-13 positive expression were closely relat-ed with the prognosis of NSCLC (P<0. 05). Conclusion MMP-9 and MMP-13 both are associated with the metastasis, invasion and prognosis of NSCLC, and MMP-13 may mainly activate MMP-9 to participate the invasion and metastasis of NSCLC.

Objective To investigate the effect of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) on intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2 +] i) and the contraction of glomerular mesangial cells (GMCs),and prove that hypercontractility of GMCs induced by TNF-α in hepatorenal syndrome(HRS) was connected with inositol 1,4,5-trisphophate receptors (IP3Rs).Methods GMCs were divided into TNF-α-treated 0 h,4h,and 24 h groups.Another 3 groups were blocked by 2-APB.The effect of TNF-α on [Ca2 +] i was identified and observed whether it could be blocked by 2-APB.Contraction of GMCs was determined by accessing the surface area of cells before and after contraction.Results TNF-α significantly increased ET-induced calcium release,in that we found higher [Ca2 +] i after stimulated by ET in TNF-α-treated 4 h group and 24 h group[4 h:(648.08 ±267.11) nmol/L; 24 h:(879.30 ±-260.29) nmol/L; 0 h:(619.93 ±258.94)nmol/L,F =5.486,4 h vs 0 h:P ＜ 0.05 ; 24 h vs 0 h:P ＜ 0.05 ;24 h vs 4 h:P ＞ 0.05].This phenomenon can be totally blocked by 2-APB in all groups.The change in planar surface area in response to ET was slightly in control cells but significantly enhanced in TNF-α-treated cells [4 h:(2198 ± 340)μm2; 24h:(2260±553)μm2; 0 h:(2436±474)μm2,F =4.001,4 h vs0 h:P ＜0.05; 24 h vs0 h:P ＜0.05;24 h vs 4 h:P ＞ 0.05].Conclusion TNF-α can enhance ET-induced sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2 + release and increase the contractile responses of GMCs to ET,which is associated with IP3Rs.TNF-α is responsible for hyperconstractility of glomeruli in HRS.
