Increasing demand for health services brings an opportunity for the development of health service industry, and the development is based on qualified talent support from Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) education. This article expounded that developing health service is the realistic demand for deepening TCM education reform from the direction, number and quality of talent cultivation, and proposed the measures of deepening TCM education to train TCM health services: establish mechanism for co-ordination of supply and demand of TCM talents under the direction of market and guidance of government; form and optimize multilevel, multi-standard and multi-grade talent cultivation system; build talent evaluation mechanism and cultivation goals focusing on post competency.

Objective: To breed Erigeron breviscapus triploid and evaluate the important biological properties of triploid Erigeron breviscapus. Methods: Tetraploid doubled by colchicine was hybridized with diploid cultivar to get the E. breviscapus triploid; The ploidy of E. breviscapus was identified by the chromosome number. The morphological charcteristics of E. breviscapus triploid in the field were observed and scutellarin was tested by HPLC. Results: Through hybirdization of diploid cultivar and tetraploid, E. breviscapus triploid (2n=3x=27) was obtained successfully. Compared with its parents, the plant height, leaf length and width, number of petals, stoma size of E. breviscapus diploids are larger than those of E. breviscapus diploids, but less than those of E. breviscapus tetraploids. However, leaf number and flower diameter of E. breviscapus triploids are better than those of the parents. The plant of E. breviscapus triploids grew vigorously, and the content of scutellarin (1.38%) is lower than that of E. breviscapus tetraploids (1.51%) and higher than that of E. breviscapus diploids (1.22%). However, the yield of E. breviscapus triploid is obvious higher than that of E. breviscapus diploid with 2.14 times and E. breviscapus tetraploid with 1.84 times. Conclusion: The content of scutellarin in E. breviscapus triploid bred by hybridizing E. breviscapus diploid and E. breviscapus tetraploid is lower than that of E. breviscapus tetraploid, while is much higher than that of E. breviscapus diploid. E. breviscapus triploid is an ideal and important one with the development and utilization value based on the characteristics mentioned above.

With the increase of morbidity and mortality, pancreatic cancer will not only become one of the leading causes of death in China, but also a major public health problem in the world. New onset cases of pancreatic cancer all around the world are expected to increase year by year. The prognosis of patients with pancreatic cancer is poor. The 5-year survival rate is only about 6%. The major reason for the poor prognosis is the lack of typical clinical symptoms in the early stage of disease, which makes it difficult to detect and control its relevant recurrence and metastasis. Moreover, lack of effective chemotherapy drugs and resistance to existing chemotherapy drugs are also important reasons for its dismal status. Radical resection surgery is still the most effective treatment. However, even after radical resection surgery, early recurrence and distant metastasis are still the main problems that bother patients. This article reviews recent high quality studies on pancreatic cancer including epidemiological investigation, advances in basic research, and clinical treatment.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of Fengshi No. 1 (FS1) in treating patients with active stage of rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

METHODSPatients with RA were randomly divided into two groups, the 40 patients in the treated group were treated with combined therapy of methotrexate (MTX), sulfasalazine (SSZ) and FS1, and the 20 in the control groups were treated with MTX and SSZ alone.

RESULTSIn the treated group, the total effective rate was 97.5%, the clinical controlled and markedly effective rate 95.0% and the occurrence rate of side-toxic reaction 10.0%, as compared with those in the control group, 60.0%, 20.0% and 45.0% respectively, the difference was significant (chi 2 = 11.91, 32.23 and 7.67 respectively, all P < 0.01). The effect in the treated group was superior to that in the control group in abating joint swelling and pain, improving function of joint, reducing immune indices and ameliorating iconographic features (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONFS1 not only has the effects of anti-inflammation, analgesis, regulating immune reaction, but also could retard the occurring of bone destruction, reduce the toxic-side effects of MTX and SSZ.

BACKGROUND:It is reported that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell(BMSC)transplantation might be a promising treatment for liver fibrosis.But the mechanism is still unclear.OBJECTIVE:To observe the hepatic stellate cells apoptosis induced by BMSC transplantation,and to study the mechanism of BMSC in treating hepatic fibrosis in vivo.METHODS:CCl_4 subcutaneous injection was performed to induce rat liver fibrosis.After 8 weeks of CCU injection,20 rats which underwent successful model establishment were randomly divided into experimental group and control group,10 in each group.The experimental group received MSC transplantation via tail vein injection,and the control group were given DMEM instead.The rats were killed and the livers were harvested at three time point,the day of MSC transplantation,3 days after transplantation,and 7 days after transplantation.The hydroxyproline content was detected by HE and Masson staining,and the expression changes of α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA)proteins were determined using immunohistochemistry.The apoptosis of hepatic stellate cells were determined by α-SMA and TUNEL(terminal dUTP nick-end labeling)dual-staining.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After 8 weeks of CCU injection,the hydroxyproline content increased and histology indicated progress of liver fibrosis.At 7 days after MSC transplantation,the hydroxyproline in the liver was decreased,and the liver fibrosis was alleviated in the experimental group but aggravated in the control group.Immunohistochemistry indicated that α-SMA positive cells were increased at 8 weeks after CCU injection.At day 7 after transplantation,α-SMA positive cells in the experimental group were significantly less than control group(P ＜ 0.05).At 3 days after transplantation,the hepatic stellate cells apoptosis in the experimental group was significantly aggravated compared with control group(P ＜ 0.05).This suggested that MSC transplant was an effective treatment for liver fibrosis.MSC inducing hepatic stellate cells apoptosis may be one of the mechanisms.
