Objective: To study the possibility of liposomes to ta rget hepatocytes af ter being linked with asialofetuin(AF). Methods: The biodistribu tions in differen t cells in liver as well as in blood, in various organs such as heart, spleen, l ung and kidney of mice, of traditional sterically stabilized liposomes(SSL) , AF-linked normal liposomes(AF-NL) and AF-linked sterically stabilized lipos ome s(AF-SSL) were studied by radioisotopic labeling. Results: The half-live s of SSL, AF-NL and AF-SSL were 14.44, 4.73 and 11.49 h， respectively. The di strib ution of liposomes in liver was AF-NL>AF-SSL>SSL. There was significant differenc e among these three formulations. In hepatocytes and non-hepatocytes, the conce ntr ations of the liposomes were both in line with the sequence AF-NL>AF-SSL>SSL( P <0.05). However, the ra tios of the concentrations in hepatocytes to that of non-hepatocytes were AF-N L≈AF -SSLSSL( P <0.05). Conclusion: After being labeled with asi alofetuin, liposomes can target hepatocytes very we ll， whether in long-circulation or not.

Objective To observe and analyze cupping therapy for chronic wound healing.Methods Thirty-nine patients with chronic wounds were collected and randomly divided into cupping therapy group (n =20) and control group (n =19).The control group was treated with route dressing change once every other day,while the cupping therapy group was added cupping therapy.Compared the two groups of patients in general view,positive ratio of wound germiculture,area percentage of wound healing and pain score (VAS score).Results The pus of wounds was mostly drained out and the fresh tissue fluid leakage when patients were treated with cupping therapy.After three days of treatment ,the positive ratio of wound germiculture of the cupping group (6 5 % )was lower than that of the control group(79%),but the difference was not significant.After one-week treatment,the positive ratio of wound germiculture of the cupping group(40%)was significantly lower than that of the control group(73%)(χ2 =4.496, P =0.034).And the VAS score of the cupping group (2.20 ±1.00)was significantly lower than that of the control group (4.16 ±0.96)(t =-12.929,P =0.001).After two-week treatment,the area percentage of wound of the cup-ping group (80.68%)was significantly lower than that of the control group (92.28%)(t =-13.675,P =0.000). And 4 cases of the cupping group cured,while no patient was cured in the control group.Conclusion Cupping thera-py based on route dressing change has positive therapeutic effect on chronic wounds.And the advantages of lower cost and easier operations would make it suitable for middle-and low-income individuals and primary hospitals.

Objective To study the expressions of Hepcidin,bone morphogenetic protein 6 (BMP6) and hemojuvelin (HJV) in gastric cancer,and to explore their relationships with clinical pathological characteristics.Methods Hepcidin,BMP6 and HJV were detected by immunohistochemistry in 62 cases of gastric cancer patients,and the relationships among them and clinical pathological features were analyzed.Results Compared with normal gastric mucosa tissues,Hepcidin was highly expressed in gastric cancer tissues (13.3％ vs.56.5％,x2 =8.99,P ＜ 0.01),while the differences of the expression of BMP6 and HJV in the two groups were not statistically significant (60.0％ vs.40.3 ％,x2 =1.89,P ＞ 0.05;93.3％ vs.83.9％,x2 =0.88,P ＞ 0.05).The expression of Hepcidin was related to T stage (x2 =6.98,P =0.02),but it was not related to age,sex,lymph node metastasis,distant metastasis and anemia.The expressions of BMP6 and HJV were not related to T stage,age,sex,lymph node metastasis,distant metastasis and anemia.Hepcidin was not related to the expressions of BMP6 and HJV (r=0.13,P＞0.05;r=0.15,P＞0.05).Conclusion Hepcidin is highly expressed in gastric cancer tissues,which is related to the T staging of gastric cancer,and can be used as an objective indicator of the biological behavior of gastric cancer.There were no differences in the expression of BMP6 and HJV between normal gastric mucosa and gastric cancer tissues.

Objective To study the impact of local fractionated irradiation on lung metastasis in H22-bearing mice, and to explore its mechanism involved. Methods Subcutaneous transplantation tumor model bearing with H22 was established. Mice were divided into three groups as healthy control, tumor control and irradiation groups. The size of subcutaneous tumors was measured and lung metastasis was observed. The expressions of PCNA, VEGF and MVD were detected immunohistochemically. The plasma levels of CD4 and CD8 were determined by using flow cytometry. Results The tumor size in irradiated group was smaller than that in tumor control group. The tumor inhibition rate in irradiated group was 30%.Lung metastasis in irradiated group was more severe than that in tumor control group (x2 = 8.31,4.48,9. 60, P＜ 0.05 ). The expressions of PCNA, VEGF and MVD in two groups were statistically different( t =23.78,-2.47, -6.43, P ＜ 0. 05). The levels of CD4 and CD8 in irradiated group were statistically different compared to healthy control group ( t = 4. 72 and 3.31, P＜ 0.05 ). Conclusions For the H22 model, radiation might inhibit the local transplantation tumor, but increase the risk of lung metastasis.

Objective To investigate the influence of ionic strength on the stability of the methotrexate-loaded dendrimer nanoparticles. Methods The influences of different ions (Na+,Cl-) and different concentrations of sodium chloride on the stability of the nanoparticles were studied. The particle size was measured by dynamic light scattering(DLS) and drug-loading content was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in order to evaluate the stability. Results The Cl- was finally verified to play an important role in stabilizing the nanoparticles and the effective concentration of the sodium chloride was recommended to be below 1. 80% . Conclusion The recommended concentration (less than 1. 80% ) of the sodium chloride significantly improves the stability of the nanoparticles and benefits for long term storage.

Objective To analyze the massive explosions and burn at Tianjin Port in 2015 resulted in a mass casualty event,and the entire course of response of a hospital to deal with such major sudden accident in order to find a rational strategy for optimal use of medical resources and reduce the critical mortality.Methods This study was done by a retrospective analysis of data from one trauma center at an academic hospital.Data including outcome,triage,severity and pattern of injuries,patient flow,and medical resources used were obtained by the review of hospital records.Results This disaster caused 165 deaths,8 missing contact,and 797 non-fatal casualties.The Pingjin Hospital admitted 298 casualties,and 29 of them were seriously injured referred to by Tianjin Emergency Medical Center.Excessive triage rate made after transfer to another hospital was 62.07% with 11 of the 29 severely injured patients.Maximum (also the first)surge had 147 injured patients arrived around one hour after incident,the second surge had 31 seriously injured patients occurred around 4 hours after incident.Of them,17 patients needed surgery and 17 patients were admitted to the intensive care unit.Conclusions These data showed that the number of casualties in the first surge was substantially larger than predicted and those casualties had less severe trauma,whereas the number of the injured in the second surge was less but the trauma was more severe.In order to maintain the hospital surge capacity,an effective re-triage and a hospital-wide damage control principle can be used to deal with.

Objective To enhance the solubility and bioavailability of curcumin (CUR).Methods A novel curcumin nanoparticles were prepared.The CUR-PGD nanoparticles were prepared by the method of ultrasound precipitation combined with high-pressure homogenization using codendrimer PAMAM-co-0.25OEG (PGD) as stabilizer.The stability of CUR-PGD nanoparticles was measured in 0.9% sodium chloride solution,5% glucose, PBS and plasma.Results The drug loading capacity (DL%) of CUR-PGD nanoparticles was 41.2%, the solubility of CUR was increased to 1.5 mg·mL-1 (50 times of CUR bulk powder).The mean diameter of the nanoparticles was 438.0 nm with spherical morphology and the zeta potential was 41.4 mV.The nanoparticles was stable in 0.9% sodium chloride solution,5% glucose, PBS and plasma and there was no hemolytic phenomenon, which meant they were suitable for intravenous administration.The DSC and XRD spectra of CUR-PGD nanoparticles showed that the CUR was presented as crystal morphology in the nanoparticles.The CUR released from nanoparticles was detected in different releasing medium and presented obvious controlled release behavior.Conclusion PGD may be an effective stabilizer for the preparation of CUR-PGD nanoparticles and CUR-PGD nanoparticles are a promising drug delivery system for CUR application in clinic.
