Objective:To investigate the influence of compound glycyrrhizin on expression of HMB45,TNF-? and IL-6 in lesion of compound. using vitiligo guinea pig model induced by chemical decolorized compound.Methods:Two Guinea pig model groups were respectively treated with compound glycyrrhizin in 27.8 mg/kg and 55.6 mg/kg dosage. Immunohistochemical studies were performed to study the expression of HMB45,TNF-? and IL-6 in compound glycyrrhizin treated group,vitiligo model group and normal control group.Results:The expression of HMB45 in lesion of vitiligo model group was lower than the normal control group.The expression of HMB45 in lesion of compound treated group was higher than the vitiligo model group and the expression of HMB45 increased accompany by the increase of dosage.The expression of TNF-? and IL-6 in vitiligo model group was significantly higher than the normal control group (P

Objective To find out effective ways of assessing doctors' scientific research performance via an index system so as to conduct objective evaluation. Methods An index system for assessing doctors' scientific research performance established with the Delphian method and the subjective assessment by experts were used to evaluate and mark doctors' scientific scientific performance and a comparison was then made between the two assessment methods. Results The results of the two assessment methods are basically the same, with the assessment via the index system being superior to the subjective assessment by experts. Conclusion The assessment of doctors'scienhfic research peifomance via the index system is a satisfactory way of assessment. h is also a dynamic system needing further perfection and development.

Objective:To study whether gangliosides inhibit the antigen-presenting capability of epidermal Langerhans cells.Methods:In the vitro test, the purified Langerhans cells were exposed to increasing concentration of gangliosides for 5 hours at 37℃,then KLH was added and incubated for 2 hours at 37℃.At last we added HDK1 and after 72 hours of coculture, levels of IFN-? in culture supernatants were measured by ELISA. In the vivo test, immunity to the S1509a spindle cell carcinoma was induced by s.c. inoculation at weekly intervals into naive syngeneic(CAF1) for a total of three immunizations. Delayed-type hypersensitivity(DTH) was elicited 1 week after the last immunization by injection a hind footpad with TAA-pulsed Langerhans cells incubated with or without gangliosides. Footpad swelling was assessed at 24 and 48 hours with a spring-loaded engineer′s micrometer.Results:The presence of gangliosides during HDK1 activation reduced the expression of IFN-? in vitro test. Gangliosides suppressed Langerhans cells to elicit DTH against TAA in vivo test.Conclusion:Ganglioside inhibit the antigen-presenting capability of epidermal Langerhans cells.

AIM: To study inhibitory effect on proliferation of docetaxel on murine angiosarcoma cell line (ISOS-1) and compare with etoposide. METH ODS: In vitro, the inhibitory effect on proliferation of docetaxel and etoposide on ISOS-1 cells were carried out by Alamar Blue assay. In vivo study, after murine angiosarcoma model establishment, seventy mice were divided into trial and control group with 5 mice for each group. The dosages of docetaxel and etoposide were 5, 10, 20 mg · kg-1 respectively through administration by intravenous (iv) or intraperitoneal (ip) injection. The iv injection was performed once a week and total 4 times as one course. The ip injection was taken once a day, keeping for 5 d as a course and then repeated once more after 2 wk. The control group was injected with the normal saline. The volumes of the tumors and the survival days were calculated. RESULTS: In vitro study, the IC5o of docetaxel for ISOS-1 cells was 15.8 μg · L-1 showing obviously lower than that of et oposide group ( 1. 175 mg · L-1 ). In vivo study, the anti-tumor effect of docetaxel was better than that of et oposide at three different doses by iv, and all the in hibitory rates of tumor volume were more than 70 %. The life prolonging effect of 5 mg · kg- 1 docetaxel was similar to that of etoposide 10 mg · kg-1. The adverse reactions of ip injection were stronger than those of ivinjection. The dosage of etoposide 20 mg · kg-1 almost reached the lethal dose. CONCLUSION: Docetaxel shows obviously inhibitory effects on proliferation of murine angiosarcoma cell line (ISOS-1), which is superior to that of etoposide. It is safe and effective with low dosage once a week by iv.
