Objective To observe the expression and the distribution of Netrin-1 in the spastic and normal segment of colon in patients with Hirschsprungs disease (HD) and investigate the relationship between Netrin-1 and development of HD.Methods Colon specimens of 36 cases with HD were selected for this study.Normal segment of colon served as the control group,while the spastic segments of colon as the lesion group.Immunohistochemical staining was applied to detecte the expression and the distribution of Netrin-1.Results Immunohistochemical staining showed that the expression of netrin-1 was positive in the intestinal muscular layers (longitudinal muscle,circular muscles),myenteric ganglias and mucosal layers in the control group.However,the expression of Netrin-1 was also positive in muscular layers and mucosal layer in the lesion group.There was no significant difference in the expression intensity of Netrin-1 between the two groups (P ＞0.05).Conclusion The expression of Netrin-1 in both the control group and the lesion group may indicate that netrin-1 have no significant correlation with genesis of HD.

Objective To study the selective tumoricidal effect of adenovirus (Ad)-mediated fusion gene system driven by kinase domain-containing (KDR) promoter on human stomach adenocarcinoma SCG7901 cells, and to observe its apoptosis induction effect. Methods Both the AdEasy-KDR-CDglyTK cells with KDR-expressing SCG7901 cells and non KDR-expressing HepG2 cells were reconstructed, and then they were treated with the pro-drugs 5-FC and/or GCV at different concentrations. The killing effects of the transfection on the cells were evaluated. Flow cytometry was employed to determine the cell cycle distribution, and Hooechest/PI stain and electron microscopy performed to observe the pathological changes of cells. Results The green fluorescent protein (GFP) was observed in 95% of the infected SCG7901 and HepG2 cells when the multiple of infection (MOI) of the Ads was 100. No significant difference on the growth feature was found among the transfected SCG7901, HepG2 and untransfected SCG7901 and HepG2 cells. The infected cells exhibited different sensitivities to the two pro-drugs: SCG7901 cells infected with rAd were highly sensitive to the pro-drugs, while the infected HepG2 cells were not (P

In this article a new principle of geometric design for blade's surface of an impeller is provided. This is an optimal control problem for the boundary geometric shape of flow and the control variable is the surface of the blade. We give a minimal functional depending on the geometry of the blade's surface and such that the flow's loss achieves minimum. The existence of the solution of the optimal control problem is proved and the Euler-Lagrange equations for the surface of the blade are derived. In addition, under a new curvilinear coordinate system, the flow domain between the two blades becomes a fixed hexahedron, and the surface as a mapping from a bounded domain in R2 into R3, is explicitly appearing in the objective functional. The Navier-Stokes equations, which include the mapping in their coefficients, can be computed by using operator splitting algorithm. Furthermore, derivatives of the solution of Navier-Stokes equations with respect to the mapping satisfy linearized Navier-Stokes equations which can be solved by using operator splitting algorithms too. Hence, a conjugate gradient method can be used to solve the optimal control problem.

In this study, we developed a novel liposome-silica hybrid nano-carrier for tumor combination therapy via oral route, using paclitaxel and cyclosporine as a model drug pair. Optimization of the preparation of the drug-loading formulation and characterization of its physicochemical parameters and drug release profile were performed in vitro. Then in vivo pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics studies were performed. The results showed that the obtained formulation has a small particle size (mean diameter of 100.2 +/- 15.2 nm), a homogeneous distribution [the polydispersity index was (0.251 +/- 0.018)] and high encapsulation efficiency (90.15 +/- 2.47) % and (80.64 +/- 3.52) % for paclitaxel and cyclosporine respectively with a mild and easy preparation process. A sequential drug release trend of cyclosporine prior to palictaxel was observed. The liposome-silica hybrid nano-carrier showed good biocompatibility in vivo and co-delivery of cyclosporine and paclitaxel significantly enhanced the oral absorption of paclitaxel with improved anti-tumor efficacy, suggesting a promising approach for multi-drug therapy against tumor and other serious diseases via oral route.

Department of rheumatology and immunology is a compulsory training department for the standardization training of the residents. However, it has been noted that the residents often ignore the importance of rheumatology. They are usually short of communication skill with the patients and theoretical knowledge. They often have high error rate in the clinical work and training their clini-cal skills and thinking ability is very difficult in the actual work. All of these problems may decrease the training quality and make the training a mere formality. Therefore, in order to carefully implement resident standardization training, a set of specific training programs has been developed, involving in theory of knowledge, practice standardization and comprehensive quality training. With these training programs, the quality and efficiency of the residents' training has greatly improved.

Objective To explore the continuous care needs of stroke patients when discharge,and analyze the related influenced factors.Methods One hundred and twenty cases with first stroke attack were selected,and their continuous care needs were investigated by methods of filling in questionnaires when discharged.The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale and Barthel Index were applied to assess the severity of acute stroke and their ability of daily life when cases were admitted and discharged,respectively.We investigated the continuous care needs of stroke patients,and analyzed the relationship of that with the severity of acute stroke and their ability of daily life.Results The top five continuous care needs were knowledge of stroke,safety administration,methods of rehabilitation,self control and monitoring blood pressure,and diet direction.Those ratios of needs ranged from 87.25%to 94.12%.The score of continuous care needs had a positive relationship with that of NIHSS(r=0.271,<0.05),and had a negative relationship with that of BI both at the time of discharge(r=-0.226,<0.05).Conclusion The various continuous care needs are very common in patients with first stroke attack for varied reasons.More serious the neurological dysfunction and lower ability of daily life,higher the level of needs for continuous care.

OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of ginsenoside Rg1 on the expression of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) in the brain of rats after the experimental brain contusion. METHODS: A total of twenty-six Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal control group (n=2), untreated group (n=8) and ginsenoside Rg1 group (n=16). Brain injuries were induced in rats by a mechanical striking device. The brain tissues were extracted at different times after brain injury (6th hour, 12th hour, 2nd day, 6th day), then the expression of IGF-1 in brain tissue was examined by immunohistochemical method. RESULTS: In comparison with the normal control group, the expression of IGF-1 in the brain tissues was increased in the untreated group after the brain contusion (P<0.05). The expression of IGF-1 in brain tissues in ginsenoside Rg1 group was significantly increased as compared with the untreated group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Ginsenoside Rg1 enhances the recovery of the contused brain through increasing the expression of IGF-1.
