Circulation of traditional Chinese medicinal materials, as the vital part of the TCM industrial chain, plays an important role in the connection of agriculture link and industry link of traditional Chinese medicinal materials, which has influence on the healthy development of the whole TCM industrial chain. Because circulation activities mainly include exchange and storage activities instead of manufacturing real products, they are much more difficult to be managed compared with producing activity. This would lead to problems in circulation of traditional Chinese medicinal materials, and impose negative effects on TCM industry. Based on scale economy theory, information asymmetry theory and cobweb model theory, this article analyzed the problems in circulation of traditional Chinese medicinal materials, discussed the deep reasons behind these problems, and proposed relevant suggestions for optimization.

Objective:To investigate the effect of survivin-siRNA plasmid on survivin expression in human lung cancer cell line A549, and to observe its effect on the apoptosis, proliferation, and chemosensitivity of A549 cells. Methods: pSilencer-survivin-siRNA (survivin-siRNA) plasmid was constructed using pSilencer-U6 plasmid and was transfected into A549 cells. Expression of survivin mRNA and protein was examined by RT-PCR and Western blotting analysis, respec-tively. Apoptosis and proliferation of A549 cells were examined by DAPI staining and MTT, respectively. Results: Sur-vivin-siRNA plasmid was successfully constructed, and it significantly inhibited survivin mRNA and protein expression in A549 cells. Survivin-siRNA transfection induced apoptosis, inhibited proliferation and increased chemosensitivity of A549 cells to cisplatin. Conclusion: pSilencer-survivin-siRNA can silence survivin expression in A549 cells and subsequently inhibit proliferation, promote apoptosis, and enhance chemosensitivity of A549 cells to cisplatin. Survivin may serve as a potential target for gene therapy of lung cancer.
