P-glycoprotein(P-gp),the product of multidrug resistance gene MDR1,plays a very significant role in the ADME processes(absorption,distribution,metabolism,excretion)and drug-drug interaction of drugs in human.The magnitude of resistance depends on the expression of MDR1 up-regulated by chemotherapy.DNA sequence differences ale associated with phenotypic variation by various mechanisms,single-nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs)is the most common of them.Genetic polymorphisms of MDR1 are associated with alteration in P-gp expression and function in different ethnicities and subjects.

To summarize clinical experience of Professor HE Tian-you in treating chronic prostatitis with combined acupuncture and herbs.His originally created acupoint ‘san yin xue’as the main points in the acupuncture treatment,and other acupoints were selected according to pattern and symptoms.He emphasized Deqi (acupuncture esthesia) and was good at performing needling manipulation. Based on the main pathogenesis of obstruction of liver liver channel,Prof HE chose Bupleurum chinense,Turmeric Root Tuber,Rhizoma,Szechwan Chinaberry Fruit,litchi,Oldenlandia and spina gleditsiae to compose the main formula.Furthermore,some other herbs were added or subtracted in main formula according to pattern and symptoms.

[Conclusion] The method can be used to distinguish the features of the six species of Calicarpa.

Objective To study the influence of different dosages of atorvastatin in acute coronary syndrome female patients on vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and brain natriuretic peptide(BNP).Methods 60 female cases of ACS patients were divided into A and B group.30 patients in the A group were given atorvastatin 20mg per night,while the other 30 patients in the B group were taken 40mg per night.The patients were followed four weeks by evaluating serum VEGF and BNP concentration.Results After treatment for four weeks,the patients in the two groups showed significant reduction in VEGF and BNP,however,the therapeutic group showed significant difference between the two groups.Additionally,the B group further showed significant reduction in VEGF and BNP.Conclusion Using high-dose atorvastatin lowers VEGF and BNP significantly,which could reduce female cardiovascμlar events.

Objective To find out evidences for the identification of Ajuga decumbens Thunb.(Jinchuangxiaocao) and Pogostemon cablin (Blanco.) Benth.(Guanghuoxiang) . Methods Fresh stems and leaves of the two species were collected and used as the samples. We used stereoscopy to observe and compare the macroscopic appearance of the original plants, and used light microscope to observe the stem cross-section, petiole cross-section, leaf epiderm and powder of the two species for microscopic identification. Results The results of macroscopic character identification showed that the petiole of Jinchuangxiaocao had narrow wing, while that of Guanghuoxiang had no narrow wing; the angles between leaf main vein and lateral vein of Jinchuangxiaocao were less than 45°, while the angles of Guanghuoxiang were more than 45°. In respect of microscopic identification, Jinchuangxiaocao had the glandular scales with multicellular head, and Guanghuoxiang had the glandular scales with one-celled head; the intercellular space and crystals were found in the cortex of Guanghuoxiang stems and mesophyll, while Jinchuangxiaocao has no such structures. Jinchuangxiaocao had diacytic and anomocytic stomata, and Guanghuoxiang only had diacytic stomata. Conclusion The appearance and microscopic differences can be used for the identification of Jinchuangxiaocao from Guanghuoxiang.

Objective To find out evidence for the identification of the aerial roots of Ficus microcarpa Linn. f. and F. altissima Bl.. Methods The fresh aerial roots of the two kinds of plants were collected. The appearance traits were observed by stereoscopy. The velamen surface, cross section of root tip, cross section of the posterior root and powder of two kinds of aerial roots were observed under microscope. Results The number of aerial roots of F. microcarpa Linn. f. was more than that of F. altissima Bl., while the diameter was less than that of F. altissima Bl.. Differences were shown in primary xylems of the transverse section of root tip and posterior root of the two kinds of aerial roots, there were 5-7 vascular bundles in F. microcarpa Linn. f. and 7-10 vascular bundles in F. altissima Bl.. As for the powder, the powder of F. microcarpa Linn. f. was yellowish brown, while that of F. altissima Bl. was reddish brown; F. altissima Bl. had more fibers and longer diameter than F. microcarpa Linn. f. and had cluster crystals in order. Conclusion The appearance and microstructure features showed by the results can be used to distinguish the aerial roots of F. microcarpa Linn. f. and F. altissima Bl..

Objective To optimize the method for total DNA extraction and RAPD analysis of Nervilia fordii (NF),and to study the genetic diversity of different breeds of NF,the substitute of NF and the fake of NF at molecular level.Methods We used low-pH extraction medium with high salt to extract total DNA,and used randomly amplified polymorphic DNAs (RAPD) to select polymorphism primer from 49 random primers.Twenty-two kinds of NF samples were analyzed by RAPD,and classified by SPSS.Genetic diversity were estimated by Shonnon's index and Nei's index.Results A higher puritiy of DNA can be obtained from fresh HF than that from medical materials.We selected 19 polymorphism primers for the cluster analysis of fresh NF and dried medical material.For medical materials of NF,the distance of amplification band of small-leave breed is close to that of middle-size leave breed,but is far away from that of,big-leave breed and Nervilia plicata.For the fresh materials of NF,there breeds of Nervilia fordii can be classified into one kind,the distance of fresh NF band is far from that of Nervilia plicata,Pachyrhizus erosus and the cultured breed,and more far awary from that of Plantago asiatica and Centella asiatica.Shonnon's genetic diversity is 0.463,Nei's genetic diversity is 0.267.Intra-population genetic variation is obvious compared to iner-population genetic variation.The estimated gene flow from Gst (Nm) is 0.94.Conclusion The molecular difference in different breeds of Nervilia Fordii can be used to identify Nervilia Fordii.The genetic diversity of Nervilia fordii is mainly caused by the geography environment.

To meet the requirements of modern field first-aid operation, a field operating table, which can be wholly folded, is developed in this paper. The table consists of a bracket and a board. The trigonal bracket, with double arms, has an articulated shoring. The posture regulation part is composed of the wormwheel, worm, rocker of plate and shoring fittings of all segments of the table. According to the measurements of its dimensions and posture angle, military experiment, experiments for stability, load, regulation moment and simulate transportation on the third level of road, S2001 field operating table is suitable for the operations on head and cervix, chest and abdomen, limbs, urinary organs and the five sense organs, whose wholly-fold structure contributes to rapid deployment and undeployment in the field.

Objective To approach the efficacy and safety of arotinolol in treating essential hypertension.Methods The studies about arotinolol in treating essential hypertension were accessed by searching the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials(Issue 3,2008),MEDLINE(1991 to March 2009),EMbase(1991 to March 2009),CBMdisc(1991 to March 2009),and CNKI(1994 to March 2009).The relevant journals and conference proceedings also hand searched.Randomized controlled trials(RCTs) in which arotinolol was used to treat patients with essential hypertension were collected.Then the retrieved studies according to predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria were screened,the quality of included studies was evaluated,and Meta analysis was performed by using RevMan 4.2 software.Results A total of 176 articles were found and 6 of which were finally included.In homogeneity test:?2=4.41,df=7,P=0.73(efficacy);?2=2.96,df=4,P=0.56(safety).In combined test,Z=0.64(P=0.52),OR=1.17,OR95%CI(0.72-1.85)(efficacy);Z=1.75(P=0.08),OR=0.60,OR95%CI(0.34-1.06)(safety).Conclusion There is no significant difference in efficacy and safety between arotinolol and control group in treating essential hypertension.
