Objective　To evalute long-term effect of combined therapy (radical or palliative resection of carcer and intraperitoneal hyperthermic perfusion (IPHP) chemotherapy) for advenced garstric cancer (GC) from October 1987 to October 1997 in our haspital. The cases were randomly divided into two groups: IPHP group (37 cases) and control group (34 cases). In IPHP group, before suture the abdomine, heated 5-Fu solution in abdominal cavity should be maintained at 42～43℃ for 60 minutes. Results　After IPHP chemotherapy, 12 patients with cancer cells widespreading in abdominal carity, refractable ascites were disappeared. All the patients were dischargd after IPHP. The 5-year survival rate in IPHP group (51.6%) was significanfly highter than that in control group (32.3%) (P<0.05).

Objective To compare in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer( IVF-ET ) outcome of gonadotropin-releasing hormone( GnRH ) antagonist protocol and GnRH agonist long protocol in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome ( PCOS)and to provide reference for rational selection of ovulation stimulation protocol for PCOS patients. Methods One hundred and four patients with PCOS who underwent IVF-ET were randomly divided into two groups. In the study group,41 patients were subjected to the GnRH antagonist protocol;In the control group,63 patients were subjected to a long protocol of GnRH agonist. Doses and duration of gonadotropin therapy,the thickness of endometrium and the profile of hormone level on the day of HCG administration,the number of retrieved oocytes,the ratio of fertilization,the ratio of cleavage,the ratio of the good quantity embryos,implantation rate of embryo,pregnancy rate,the cycle cancellation rate and the incidence rate of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome( OHSS)were recorded. Results The IVF-ET outcome of the two groups was similar with respects to the number of oocytes,the ratio of fertilization,the ratio of cleavage,implantation rate of embryo and the pregnancy rate( P﹥0. 05). Significant differences were found(P﹤0. 05)between the two groups regarding to the doses and duration of gonadotropin therapy,the levels of serum E2 and LH on the day of HCG administration,and the cycle cancellation rate. The incidence rate of OHSS was not significantly different ( 2. 44% vs. 12. 70%) between the two groups. Conclusion The duration of gonadotropins administration,the cycle cancellation rate,incidence of OHSS and the financial burdern are reduced in patients treated with GnRH antagonist. The growth of follicle,the ratio of fertilization,the ratio of cleavage,implantation rate of embryo and the pregnancy rate are not different between the two methods. The GnRH antagonist protocol is optimal for patients with PCOS.

Objective To investigate the effects of acidosis on the current change of transient receptor potential channel M7 (TRPM7) and collagen production in mouse cardiac fibroblast (MCFs), and to explore the pathophysiological function of TRPM7 on the cardiac fibrosis. Methods (1) The model of MCFs was established and isolated. (2) MCFs was subcuhured. (3) Patch clamp technique was used to observe the current characteristics of TRPM7 in low PH solutions. (4) The influence of acidic condition on Ca2+ influx in MCFs was recorded by calcium fluorescent indicators. Results (1) There was a high level expression of TRPM7 in MCFs and the electrophysiological characteristics of TRPM7-like (TRPM7L) was similar to that of TRPM7. (2) Ca2+ influx was increased in acidic condition, and the F340/F380 ratio was increased from 1.0 to 4. 6 at pH 4.0 compared with pH 7.0 (t=2.72, P<0.01). Conclusions (1) TRPM7 is the molecular basis of the native TRPM7L in MCFs and TRPM7L plays an important role in Ca2+ influx. (2) The pathophysiological function of MCFs is influenced by regulation of Ca2+ influx mediated by TRPM7L in the condition of acidosis.

Objective To investigate the changes of TRPM 7-like current in mouse cardiac fibroblast(CFs) after myocardial infarction and the effect of myocardial ischemia on the TRPM 7 expression and current. Methods (1) The model of myocardial infarction was made and CFs were isolated;(2) CFs were cultured and infected by TRPM 7 siRNA;(3) The effects of myocardial ischemia on TRPM 7 current were recorded by whole cell patch clamp technique;(4) The influences of myocardial isehemia on Ca2+ influx in CFs were recorded by Ca2+ fluorescence imaging. (5) The effects of ischemia on total collagen content of CFs were studied. Results (1) Ca2+ inward current of CFs was increased after myocardial infarction [(16.2±1.7) vs. (7.4±0.7) pA/pF, P<0.053];(2) TRPM 7 current was reduced by 90% after siRNA infection;(3) The total collagen content of CFs after ischemia was approximately 2.3-fold higher than basic value. Conclusions Ca2+ influx in CFs plays an important role in the pathophysiological process of myocardial fibrosis.

Extract from Ruppia rostellata Koch was divided into three parts: petroleum ether part, CH2Cl2 and water-soluble part. Each part of them was studied upon it's antioxidation. The results indicated that the active compounds were only in the water-soluble part. In soybean oil, the antioxidation of water-soluble part was stronger than that of BHA and V. E. , In lard, the antioxidation of water-solubile part was a little weaker than that of BHA and V.E.

Objective To develop a quantitative method to determine vitexin in Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp. Methods The chromatographic conditions were as follows: column C18(250 mm? 4.6 mm, 5 ? m) , mobile phase being MeOH ∶ 1 % HAC (25 ∶ 75) for 20 mins and then being MeOH ∶ 1 % HAC (30 ∶ 70) after 20 mins, flow rate at 1.0 mL/min, and wavelength at 339 nm.

Objective To observe the effect of Changji’an Prescription (CP) on depressing the mast cells in the irritable bowel syndrome(IBS)rats. Methods The postnatal rats aged 8～21 days were given continous inflammation stimulation inside the colon to replicate the animal model of the IBS. The number of mast cells and their degranulation were observed by modified Toluidine Blue staining method under light microscope and electron microscope.

Objective To observe the effect of Changji'an Prescription(CP) on T lymphocytes count and 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT) secretion in rats with diarrhea predominant irritable bowel syndrome(IBS).Methods Forty-six neonatal SD rats were randomized into normal group,model group,low-,middle-and high-dose CP groups(0.94,1.88 and 3.76g?kg-1?d-1 respectively),and Bupi Yifei Pills group(6.76g?kg-1?d-1).Continuous internal rectal stimulation with acetate was used to induce the rat model of intestinal hypersensitive IBS.Flow cytometer was used for the quantitative analysis of peripheral levels of T lymphocytes subsets CD+3,CD+4 and CD+8,and immunohistochemical method was used to observe 5-HT-positive cells number and the immunostaining intensity in the bowels of rats.Results In the model group,the defecation volume and the intestinal sensitivity were increased,CD+4 level and CD+4/CD+8 decreased,CD+8 level increased,5-HT-positive cells number and the immunostaining intensity elevated(P

Conus textile is a kind of highly toxic and abundantly existing conus in the South China Sea. The toxin from C.textile could act on sodium channels(δ-conotoxins)and calcium channels (ω-，ε-conotoxins), respectively. Their specific chemical structure and biological activity have attracted a lot of attention in recent years. This article briefly reviews their biochemical characteristics, isolation, gene cloning, biological and neuropharmacological activities, as well as their potential applications.
