Objective To investigate the abnormal expressions of light chain immunoglobulins kappa (Ig?) and lambda ( Ig?) in multiple primary malignant tumors (MPMT) in elderly patients. Methods The expressions of Ig? and Ig? in specimens obtained from multiple malignant tumors in 21 elderly patients were investigated. Immunohistochemical staining was performed with mouse antihuman Ig? and Ig? monoclonal antibodies. Among 21 patients with multiple primary malignant tumors, the first tumor which occurred in the digestive tract was detected in 20 patients. In 17 patients first and second tumors were found to occur in the digestive tract. In 21 patients with MPMT the relationship between the expressions of light chain immunogloblin and survival time was analyzed. Results Positive staining of Ig? and/or Ig? in specimens from the first and/or second tumor tissues was found in 16 patients(76 2%). Statistic analysis showed that there was close relationship between the expression of Ig? and that of Ig? in the tissues from double tumors ( P

Given the significant improvement in terms of its coverage and compensation depth,China's basic medical insurance system has inherent setbacks in its structure as held by the authors.They hold that the medical insurance as the most important source of compensation for medical institutions,should further reform its structure of financing and reasonably raise the percentage of compensation; adjust the time reference and space reference for prepayment estimation such as the total prepaid amount; deepen supportive reforms for the payment manner.All these measures aim at minimizing impact of the payment control mechanism on routine medical activities and exploring diversified payment manners that are feasible.

The aim of this study is to explore the anti-HSV activity of P.vulgaris polysaccharides and gels in vitro and in vivo with the provision of scientific evidence for the further research of anti-HSV new drugs.Plaque reduction assay was adopted to determine the IC50 value of P.vulgaris polysaccharides on HSV-1 and HSV-2 in vitro.In addition,HSV-1 (skin) and HSV-2 (vulva) infected guinea-pig models were established for assessing the anti-HSV activity of polysaccharides and gels in vivo,and infected lesion degree,number of papulovesicle,typical lesion score and the DNA copy numbers of HSV-1 and HSV-2 viruses in the lesion tissue were taken as the indexes.It was found that the activities of HSV1 and HSV-2 viruses was inhibited by P.vulgaris polysaccharides in vitro,while HSV induced skin lesions in the guineapigs were ameliorated by P.vulgaris gel,exerting an anti-HSV action.In conclusion,it was demonstrated that P.vulgaris polysaccharides and gels performed an anti-HSV action both in vitro and in vivo with the hidden value of developing antiHSV agents.

Objective To investigate the protective effects of soybean isoflavone(SI) on genetic toxicity induced by di-n-butul phthalate(DBP) in mice.Method(1) Micronucleus test:40 male 7 w old Kunming mice were randomized into 4 groups:High and low dose SI intervention groups,DBP model group,and solvent control group.SI intervention groups were given different doses of SI(50,100mg/kg) for 30 d,meanwhile,the DBP group and solvent group were given 0.5% sodium carboxymethyl cellulose.Then all groups were treated by 0.5g/kg DBP for 5d except solvent group.Mice were sacrificed 6 hour after last treatment,and then counting micronucleated cells in bone marrow.(2) Sperm malformation test:40 male 6w old Kunming mice were grouped and treated the same as micronucleus test.Mice were sacrificed at 35 day after the first treatment,and then sperm quantity,motility,viability and abnormality rate were calculated.Result Micronucleus rate and sperm abnormality rate of SI intervention group were lower than DBP model group,while sperm motility and viability were higher than DBP model group.Conclusion SI can relieve the genetic toxicity induced by DBP in mice.

Objective To study the effect and the mechanism of astrocytes-derived estrogen on synaptic transmission. Methods Based on the model of pure cultures of neonatal cortical neurons, the experimental groups were designed as follows: pure neuron culture (group P), ACM culture (group A), mixed culture of AST and neuron (group M), E_ 2 culture (group E), ACM+tamoxifen (estrogen receptor antagonist) culture (group A+T ), tamoxifen culture (group T). The difference among these groups of synaptic transmission was recorded by patch clamp and presynaptic vesicle releasing kinetics was marked by a dye named FM4-64. Results The mean amplitude and frequency of miniature postsynaptic currents (mPSCs) of group P, A, M, E, A+T and T were: (20.5?2) pA, (13?4) min -1 ; (29.1?3) pA, (73?16) min -1 ; (31.3?3) pA, (78?20) min -1 ; (30.2?3) pA, (76?18) min -1 ; (24.5?2) pA, (35?10) min -1 ; (22.1?2) pA, (37?10) min -1 respectivily. The treatment of pure neuron culture with ACM increased synaptic transmission of pure cultured cortical neuron. Exogenic estradiol added into pure neurons can stimulate the effect of the ACM. Tamoxifen which was the antagonist of estrogen receptor could decrease most effect of ACM on synaptic transmission. The assaying of vesicle release marked by FM4-64 showed astrocytes-derived estrogenic enhancing synaptic transmission was at least mediated by strengthening presynaptic vesicle releasing. Conclusion The estrogen from astrocytes of neonatal rat cortex may enhance neuronal synaptic transmission mainly through estrogen receptor.

Objective To measure the estrogen concentration of estrogen (E 2) in the culture medium of rat astrocytes (ASTs). Methods Astrocytes in brain cortex of the 2-day-old neonatal rats were collected and cultured. The number of astrocytes was counted and the concentration of estrogen was measured by ELISA method at 0, 7, 14, and 21 d after culture. Results The cell counts were 1?10 4/ml, 1.1?10 6/ml, 1.4?10 6/ ml, and 1.5?10 6/ml, respectively. The concentrations of E 2 were: 0 pg/ml, (117.03?21.32) pg/ml, (266.91?22.03) pg/ml, and (252.62?27.99) pg/ml, respectively. No estrogen was detected in the primary culture medium. The concentration of estrogen increased in a time-dependent manner and reached the peak at 14 d, and then decreased gradually but remained at a certain level. Conclusion E 2 is secreted by astrocytes in the brain cortex of the 2-day-old neonatal rats.
