Colorectal cancer(CRC)ranks the third in incidence and mortality rate among human tumors. Tumor relapse,me?tastasis and drug resistance remain the main obstacle to the success of CRC treatments. Compared to traditional chemotherapy ,target therapy seems to treat tumors in more precise and rational fashion with good response and often less toxic side-effect. Although target agents provide hope for more effective therapy,recent clinical studies have shown only modest benefit from target therapy similar to tra?ditional chemotherapy. Primary and secondary resistance to target agents is still observed and contributes to CRC treatment failure. The review summarizes research progress in the mechanism of drug resistance to target therapy in CRC treatment.

Hydrophidae, one of the precious traditional Chinese medicines, is generally drily preserved to prevent corruption, but it is hard to identify the species of Hydrophidae through the appearance because of the change due to the drying process. The identification through analysis on gene barcode, a new technique in species identification, can avoid the problem. The gene barcodes of the 6 species of Hydrophidae like Lapemis hardwickii were aquired through DNA extraction and gene sequencing. These barcodes were then in sequence alignment and test the identification efficency by BLAST. Our results revealed that the barcode sequences performed high identification efficiency, and had obvious difference between intra- and inter-species. These all indicated that Cyt b DNA barcoding can confirm the Hydrophidae identification.
