International Journal of Surgery 2010;37(8):554-556
Livin is a new member of the inhibitors of apoptosis protein(IAP) gene family. It is highly expressed in most human tumors, involved in inhibiting cell apoptosis, and closely related with tumor occurrence, development and prognosis. So Livin could be a new target for tumorous early diagnosis and cancer therapy. This paper summarizes the Livin gene molecular structure, tissue expression, biological function,and its application in cancer treatment.
2.Application of Quality Risk Management in Drug Withdrawal Links of Hospital Pharmacy
China Pharmacy 2017;28(13):1809-1812
OBJECTIVE:To control the drug quality risk in drug withdrawal links of hospital pharmacy,and provide reference for the application of quality risk management(QRM)in hospital pharmacy. METHODS:Drug QRM was developed in drug with-drawal links through risk identification,risk assessment,risk control,risk assessment and other steps. Using the incidence of risk factors and reusable rate of withdrawal drug as indexes,related data of before(Jul.-Dec. 2015)and after(Jan.-Jun. 2016)devel-oping QRM in our hospital were compared to evaluate the effect of drug QRM. RESULTS:Determining whether specific storage drugs kept the required storage conditions,whether the numbers of withdrawal drugs counted to minimal packaging and other 5 fac-tors were high-risk factors(the risk score of each factor>4 points);control measures were taken separately for high risk factors, then high-risk factors were reduced to acceptable levels(risk score<4 points). After developing QRM,the incidence of risk factors were reduced than before(reduce 1.35%-6.19%),reusable rate of withdrawal drug was increased(98.64% vs. 86.32%)(all P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Developing QRM in drug withdrawal links of hospital pharmacy can reduce the drug quality risk.

Objective To investigate the change in heat shock protein 70(HSP7O) in the brain tissue of fetal and newborn rats after prenatal hypoxic adaptation and the possible mechanism of the protective effect. Methods Twenty-two 22d pregnant Wistar rats were randomly divided into two groups: GroupⅠ(hypoxic adaptation group) and group Ⅱ(control group). The animals in group Ⅰ were placed in a tightly closed hypoxic adaptation chamber, of which the oxygen and carbon dioxide concentrations were monitored. The pregnant rats were taken out and exposed to fresh air for 5 mm when the 02 % in the chamber was reduced to 15 %, then the pregnant rats were placed back in the chamber and the above process was repeated once. The animals were then left for their natural labor. In control group the pregnant rats underwent the same process but the chamber was not tightly closed(O2 %= 21 %). Prenatal rats were delivered by cesarean section at lb. 3h, 8h, 24h, 48h, 72h, 120h and 168h after hypoxic adaptation and decapitated and brain was removed. Seven newborn rats from each group were decapitated and brain was removed for determination of HSP70 expression with immunohistochimical technique. Results No HSP7O expression was observed in the brain tissue of normal prenatal and newborn rats. HSP70 was observed in the different regions of hippocampus and cortex from 8h to 168h after hypoxic adaptation. Strongest HSP70 expression was observed in hippocampus CAl . Conclusions HSP70 plays a role in the formation of prenatal hypoxic adaptation.

ve To determine the most approprite hypoxic concentration and duration for prenatal hypoxic adaptation animal experiment by exposing pregnant rats to the hypoxic air of different oxygen concentration.Methods Full-term pregnant rats( gestation time 22 days) were placed in an airtight cabin specially designed for hypoxic adaptation experiment. The rats were divided into 7 groups. The Q2 concentration in the airtight cabin was decreased from 21% (group Ⅰ as control) to 18% (group Ⅱ), 17% (group Ⅲ), 16% (group Ⅳ), 15% (group Ⅴ), 14% (group Ⅵ) and 13% (group Ⅶ) respectively. The animals were exposed to short duration of hypoxic air twice with a break of 5min breathing fresh air. The duration of the first hypoxic episode lasted 10 min (group Ⅰ ) , 5 min (group Ⅱ), 7.5min (group Ⅲ), 9.83 min (group Ⅳ), 11.5 min (group Ⅴ), 13.17 min (group Ⅵ) and 14 min (group Ⅶ) respectively. The second hypoxic episode lasted 10min, 9.33 min, 11 min, 15.17 min, 13.33 min, 17 min and 18 min respectively. Ten newborn rats (1 day after birth) randomly selected from each group were placed in a 100ml airtight bottle and the duration from the start to the time when the newborn rat stopped breathing was recorded as hypoxia surviving time. Another 10 newborn rats randomly selected from each group were decapitated and brain was removed for light and electron microscopic examination to determine the degree of neuronal damages. Results In group Ⅰ-Ⅴ the newborn rats were normal (pink skin color and good extremity movement) . In group VI 10/55 (18%) newborn rats were cyanotic with diminished extremity movement, the others were normal. In group VIII 11/52(21% ) newborn rats died, 14/ 52(27%) were cyanotic with diminished extremity movement. Neuronal damages could be seen in cyanoticnewborn rats including decreased number, swelling, apoptosis of neurons and expanded mitochondria. The hypoxia surviving time was significantly longer in group Ⅳ, Ⅴ and Ⅵ than that in control group. Conclusions Hypoxic air containing 15% O2 is appropriate for animal experiment of prenatal hypoxic adaptation. It is better to divide prenatal hypoxia into two episodes lasting 11.5 min and 13.33 min with a break of 5 min between them when animals breathe fresh air.

Objective To investigate the mechanism involved in the brain protection afforded by prenatal hypoxic adaptation by determining the quantitative variation in bcl-2 and bax mRNA expression.Methods Twenty-four Wistar pregnant (22d pregnant) rat were randomly divided into two groups: group I (hypoxia group) and group *** ( control group) . In group Ⅰ the pregnant rats were placed in an airtight cabin specially designed for hypoxic adaptation. When O2 % in the cabin decreased to 15%, the animals were taken out breathing fresh air for 5min and then placed back in the cabin and underwent another episode of hypoxia. In group Ⅱ the animals were placed in the cabin which was not tightly closed and underwent no hypoxia. 7 fetal or newborn rats were taken at 1st, 3rd, 24th, 48th, 72nd, 120th, and 168th h after prenatal hypoxic adaptation from each group and their brains removed for determination of bcl-2 mRNA and bax mRNA. Results In control group the expression of bcl-2 and bax were observed in the brain tissue of normal fetal or newborn rats from the 22nd day in the uterus to the 7th day postpartum during which there were no significant changes in bcl-2 gene expression while bax gene expression gradually decreased with time ( the decrease was of no statistical significance) . In hypoxia group bax gene expression decreased at 8th h after hypoxic adaptation and reached the bottom at 24th h which persisted until 120th h; while bcl-2 gene expression started increasing at 24th h after hypoxic adaptation and persisted until 72nd h. The bcl-2/bax ratio also started increasing at 8th h after hypoxic adaptation and peaked at 24th h and persisted until 72nd h. Conclusions In the brain tissue of fetal and newborn rats which have undergone prenatal hypoxic adaptation, bcl-2 gene expression is elevated, bax gene expression decreases and bcl-2/bax ratio increases. These changes are time -dependent.
