Gynecological malignancies have seriously affected women′s living quality and survival.In recent years,studies have shown that androgen is closely related to the occurrence and development of gynecologic malignancies.In this paper,we mainly discussed the mechanism of androgen on gynecologic malignancies.

AIM: To study the absorption and distribution characteristics of oxybutynin (OXY) oral tablet and transdermal gel. METHODS: A single dose of 0.1 g OXY transdermal gel (2 mg OXY) was applied to abdominal area about 4 cm2 and 0.5 mg immediate-release tablet was orally given to 48 rats in a randomized, open-label, control design test. The plasma, bladder and liver tissue were collected, disposed and analyzed and OXY pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated and evaluated. RESULTS: The Cmax of OXY transdermal gel and oral tablets in bladder are approximately 800 and 70 times higher than those in plasma. The plasma half life of OXY gel delayed 5.99 h, tablets 2.18 h. CONCLUSION: OXY gel show better pharmacokinetic properties, characterized with long half life and high target organ concentrations than those of tablets.

Objective To investigate the oxalate-degrading and growth abilities of lactic acid bacteria coming from yoghourt in vitro culture broth. Methods The species of lactic acid bacteria obtained from 6 brands of yoghourt were identified. Different brands of yoghourt were separately cultured in broth and incubated at 37 ℃,5% CO2 for 48 h, getting the concentration of lactic acid bacteria through slab counting method. The brand of yoghourt with the highest quantity of bacteria was chosen as the study subject. Three species of bacteria and the mixture bacteria obtained from the chosen brand of yoghourt were cultured separately for 72 h in MRS broth which contained three different concentrations of ammonium oxalate, and the broth without inoculating of bacterium was prepared as control. The amount of bacteria in culture was detected, the concentration of ammonium oxalate was detected through photometric determination of oxalic acid by its catalytic reaction of methyl red by potassium chromate. Results Three species of lactic acid bacteria (L.bulgaria, L.acidophilus and L.thermophilus) were detected in each brand of yoghourt. The quantity of bacteria in Weiquan yoghourt is the highest. After 72 h incubation, the concentrations of oxalate in all the broths containing bacteria were lower than those in the control. L.acidophilus showed the best degrading activity. The higher the concentration of oxalate was, the bigger the amount of oxalate degraded was, the smaller the percent of degrading was, and the less the growth ability of bacteria was. Conclusion All the species coming from yoghourt have the ability of oxalate degrading, which increases with the concentration of oxalate in culture.But the high concentration of oxalate restrains the growth of bacteria.

Objective To observe the effects of Compound Uncaria Hypotensive Tablets on expressions of MCP-1 and MMP-9 of vascular remodeling in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR); To discuss it possible mechanism of action. Methods Totally 24 12-week old male SHR were randomly divided into SHR model group, Compound Uncaria Hypotensive Tablets group, and positive medicine group, with 8 rats in each group. Another 8 WKY rats were set as normal control group. Medication groups were given relevant medicine for gavage for successive 6 weeks. Noninvasive tail cuff method was used to observe blood pressure; morphological changes in thoracic aorta and renal artery were observed by HE staining; immunohistochemistry was used to detect the protein expressions of MCP-1 and MMP-9 in thoracic aortic wall. Results Protein expressions of MCP-1 and MMP-9 in thoracic aortic wall of SHR model group were significantly higher than those of normal control group (P<0.01); Compared with the SHR model group, protein expressions of MCP-1 and MMP-9 in thoracic aortic wall decreased significantly in the medication groups (P<0.05, P<0.01); Compared the Compound Uncaria Hypotensive Tablets group and positive medicine group, there was no obvious difference in protein expressions of MCP-1 and MMP-9 in thoracic aortic wall. Conclusion Compound Uncaria Hypotensive Tablets can reduce the blood pressure of SHR, reduce inflammation reaction, and regulate vascular remodeling, which mechanism may be related to down-regulation of expressions of MCP-1 and MMP-9 in SHR aortic endothelial cells.

Novozym 435 was selected from four lipases and two proteinase because of its high catalytic activity and enantiosectivity.For the ammonolysis of (?)-?-methylbenzyl acetate,The effect of ammonia sources,the concentration of enzyme and substrates on the reaction were further explored .under the optimum conditions of this study,after 6h reaction,with the enantiomeric excess of the remaining (-)-?-methylbenzyl acetate was found to be higher than 99%.

The effects of reaction media, water activity, temperature and pH on Novozym 435-catalyzed enantiose-lective ammonolysis of (?) -?-methylbenzyl acetate have been systematically explored. Novozym 435 showed high catalytic activity and enantioselectivity in hexane; the optimum temperature and the initial water activity were 25℃ and 0.33 respectively; The suitable reaction pH was in the range of 6.0 - 7.0.

A 2,4 -dichlorophenol degrading Pseudomonas strain GI241-1 was isolated from a soil sample. The dienelactone hydrolase gene, designated as dcpD which encodes dienelactone hydrolase involved in transforming cis-2-chloro-dienelactone into 2-chloromaleylacetic acid, was cloned from this bacterium strain. The gene cloning strategy was to construct genomic library after location of its neighbouring gene by Southem blot and to screen the aim transformant by dot blotting. Sequencing results showed that length of dcpD is 702bp. The sequence of dcpD and the deduced amino acid are different from the relative sequences registered in the GenBank.
