At the beginning of a standard item, the standardized objects and involved contents should be demonstrated thoroughly, which is the precondition of establishing a good standard. After the proposal of this standard, a high-level drafting group should be built, led by top specialists who also draft the standard, which is essential to guarantee the quality of the standard. Before drafting the standard, literature regarding this standard should be searched completely, and Directives for Standardization should be learned to understand the basic requirements of establishing a standard; in the meanwhile, selections on standardized contents and quantitative boundaries of technical indices should be comprehensively and deeply studied. At the stage of consultation, focus should be paid on the scope of the consultation departments, level and personnel quality. As for standard review, it should be precise and truth-seeking. At the stage of submitting and authorization, it is necessary to have timely communication. Only by full cooperations of all parties, and by strictly following the procedure, method and rule of standard establishment, can a high-quality acupuncture-moxibustion standard be established.

Objective: To investigate the expression and clinical significance of Raf kinase inhibitor protein (RKIP) and phosphorylated-extracellular signal regulated kinase (P-ERK) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and their correlations with the invasion and metastasis of HCC. Methods: Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expressions of RKIP and P-ERK in HCC tissues, paracancerous tissues, and normal liver tissues. Statistical analysis was used to determine the relationship between their expressions and clinicopathological parameters. Results: Statistical analysis revealed that RKIP-positive staining rate was lower in tumor tissues than that in tumor-surrounding tissues and in normal liver tissues. But P-ERK-positive staining rate was significantly higher in tumor tissues than that in tumor-surrounding tissues and normal liver tissues. The difference was significant. RKIP expression had negative correlation with P-ERK expression (r = - 0.227, P = 0.039); RKIP expression in HCC was associated with intrahepatic or lymphatic metastasis and tumor differentiation (P < 0.05). P-ERK expression in HCC was related with tumor differentiation, tumor thrombosis, and intrahepatic or lymphatic metastasis (P < 0.05). Conclusions: These findings indicate that down-regulation or loss of RKIP expression is closely related with HCC development and progression. The down-regulation or loss of RKIP expression stimulates migration and metastasis of HCC by up-regulating P-ERK expression.

Objective: To obtain the bFGF mimic peptide binding to FGFR via phage display, and to provide the base for developing peptide agonist of bFGF. Methods: Using Balb/c 3T3 cells as the target cells and COS-7 cells as the subtractive panning, the phage display heptapeptide library was biopanned for 4 rounds to obtain the single phage clones. The affinity and the specificity of the clones were assessed by ELISA. DNA sequencing was applied to further analyze the positive clones. Results: Twelve positive clones were selected from the enriched phages. A group of hydrophobic peptides containing a conserved motif, PR, was identified. Conclusion: Two bFGF mimic heptapeptides binding to FGFR were selected, which may be used as the candidates for bFGF agonist.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of different processing methods on antitussive and hepatotoxicity of Dioscorea bulbifera L.. METHODS The raw and processed products of Dioscorea bulbifera L., fried Dioscorea bulbifera L. (FD), wine-fried Dioscorea bulbifera L. (WD), liquorice liquid-fried Dioscorea bulbifera L. (LD) and angelicae liquid-fried Dioscorea bulbifera L. (AD) were administered to mice at a dose of 1.7 g•kg-1 for 7 d. The effects of processing on the cough relief of Dioscorea bulbifera L. were evaluated by the cough test induced by concentrated ammonia water. The detoxification effect and the preliminary mechanism of processing on Dioscorea bulbifera L. were evaluated by the detection and analysis of the relevant indicators. RESULTS: Compared with the RD group, LD and AD group had longer cough latency (P<0.05 or P<0.01) and fewer cough times (P<0.05 or P<0.01), lower levels of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in liver tissue (P<0.05 or P < 0.01). ) The levels of serum AST and ALT, liver MDA, T-SOD, CAT, GSH, GPx and GST were significantly reversed (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the levels of serum AST and ALT, liver MDA, T-SOD, CAT, GSH, GPx and GST were compared between the two groups. There was no significant difference (P>0.05). Compared with the AD group, there were more coughing times in LD group (P<0.05). Other processed products (FD or WD) had shorter cough latency (P<0.05 or P<0.01) and more cough times (P<0.05 or P<0.01) but had no effects on serum AST and ALT, liver tissue MDA, T-SOD, CAT, GSH, GPx (P>0.05) in mice induced by concentrated ammonia water. The intervention of WD only had significant reversal effect on the low GST level of liver (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The intervention of FD had no significant reversal effect on the low GST level of liver (P>0.05). CONCLUSION: Processing with Angelica sinensis and licorice could enhance the antitussive effect of Dioscorea bulbifera L. and reduce its hepatotoxicity. The mechanism of attenuation may be related to the inhibition of lipid peroxidation and the enhancement of antioxidant level in liver. The antitussive effect of two kinds of processing, stir-fried and wine-fried, is only effective, but no synergistic effect, no toxic effect and no attenuation effect are found.

Objective:To explore the effect of extracorporeal shock wave combined with meloxicam tablets on joint function and serum matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and resistin levels in elderly patients with osteoarthritis.Methods:80 cases of elderly patients with osteoarthritis in Nanchong Central Hospital from May 2016 to March 2019 were selected as the research objects, and they were randomly divided into two groups, 40 cases in each group. The control group was given conventional oral medicine (meloxicam + potassium glucosamine sulfate tablets), and the observation group was given meloxicam tablets combined with extracorporeal shock wave therapy. The total effective rate, incidence of adverse reactions, and the scores of osteoarthritis symptoms (WOMCA), joint function (Lysholm), serum MMP-9 and resistin before and after 8 weeks' treatment were compared between the two groups.Results:After treatment, the WOMCA score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group, and Lysholm score was higher than that of the control group ( P<0.05); the total effective rate of the observation group (95.00%) was higher than of the control group (77.50%) ( P<0.05); the serum resistin and MMP-9 levels of the observation group were lower than those of the control group after treatment ( P<0.05); there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the observation group (15.00%) and the control group (17.50%) ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Extracorporeal shock wave combined with meloxicam tablets in the treatment of elderly patients with osteoarthritis can significantly improve the clinical symptoms, promote the recovery of joint function, reduce the levels of serum resistin and MMP-9, and further improve the treatment effect with high safety.

Abstract: With the development of molecular biology, non-coding sRNA has been found to play an important regulatory role in gene expression and protein activity, affecting various biological pathways including mosquito resistance against insecticides. Understanding the molecular regulatory mechanisms of drug resistance is essential for controlling mosquitoes, , of which metabolic resistance being the most critical mechanism, mainly referring to the high expression of metabolic detoxification enzyme-related genes (especially the cytochrome P450 enzyme system) in mosquitoes. On the basis of verification of insecticide resistance-related genes, further research on the correlation between sRNA and mosquito resistance-related genes provides new ideas and directions for further exploring the mechanism of mosquito resistance. The study of mosquito metabolic resistance mechanism is of great significance for the control of vector mosquitoes, drug resistance monitoring and novel insecticide development. This article reviews the progress of research on the resistance genes, sRNAs biosynthesis, genes involved in regulating mosquito metabolic detoxification enzymes and their applications.
