A study the quantitative measurement of DNA content in 3 normal lacrimal glands, 18 pleo-morphie adcnomas and 21 lacrimal gland carcinomas was carried out by flow eytometry. The results showed that pleomorphie adenomas still had the characteristics of DNA content of the normal diploid lacrimal gland cells. The significant increase of DNA index (DI) in pleomorphie adenomas might mean malignant transformation. DNA content of malignant tumor increased evidently and its aneuploid ratio was higher than in pleomorphic adenomas (76.2% VS 16.8%) (P

Nrf2/Keap1/ARE is an important signaling pathway in maintaining the balance between peroxide and antioxidants. Once oxidative stress happened, Nrf2/Keap1/ARE would be ac-tivated to regulate the expression of downstream antioxidant pro-teins that could reduce the injury from oxidative stress and the level of oxidative stress. Recent researches show that Nrf2/Keap1/ARE signaling pathway is closely related to refractory re-spiratory diseases such as pulmonary fibrosis (PF), lung canc-er, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), suggesting that Nrf2/Keap1/ARE signaling pathway may be a potential ther-apeutic target. This review focuses on the role of Nrf2/Keap1/ARE signaling pathway in refractory respiratory diseases in order to further understand the related mechanism and provide evidence for the diagnosis and treatment of refractory respiratory diseases.

Objective To investigate the changes of the anion gap(AG)in the premature suffered from hyperbilirubinemia,to provide the basis for treatment.Methods The serum electrolyte,the renal function and the liver function in 94 premature babies suffered from hyperbilirubinemia were tested,and then calculated the value of AG,while the arterial blood gas analyses were done in 36 cases.Results 44 cases had high AG(46.81％),44 cases had normal AG(46.81％)and 6 cases had low AG(6.38％).The increase of AG was directly proportional to the concentration of Na+in blood,while was inversely proportion to the concentration of HCO3-.There was no close relationship between the AG and BUN,Scr in the serum.Conclusion The incidence rate of metabolic acidosis poisoning was high in premature suffered from hyperbilirubinemia with high AG,so the routine test of blood electrolyte,renal function and arterial blood gas should be done.Calculate the value of AG to guide the treatment,and to avoid correcting the acid by the alkali blindly.

Objective To investigate the effect of small interfering RNA(siRNA)-expressing plasmid targeting connective tissue growth factor(CTGF) on the expressions of its mRNA and protein in cultured human keloid fibroblasts(hKFs).Methods Constructed siRNA-expressing plasmids targeting CTGF were transfected into hKFs by Dosper package.Then the transfected cells were treated with transforming growth factor 1(TGF-?1,10 ng/ml).Normal hKFs cells and those with TGF-?1 treatment served as normal control and control groups respectively.The expression level of CTGF mRNA and protein were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR(RQ-PCR) and Western blotting respectively.Results The expression level of CTGF mRNA was only 56.6% of that of the normal control(P

Objective To study the factor structure in rating scale of deficiency of spleen and kidney of nephrology and estimate it.Methods Factor analyse in deficiency of spleen and kidney rating scale in nephrology was made using SPSS13.0.Results The scale was composed of four factors : Pi Xv; Shen Xv; Qi Xv and other general things.Validity analyse indicated that the result was credible. Conclusion The rating scale of Pi Shen Qi Xv in nephrology has good construct validity and it can be extensively used in Traditional Chinese Medicine.
