China Oncology 2006;0(08):-
Effects of antineoplastic agents on endocrine system are common, but it is difficult to identify since clinical complaints are subtle, and even more difficult to relate a particular chemotherapeutic regimen to the induced endocrine disturb. This review was organized according to the pattern of endocrine system diseases induced by antineoplastic agents, such as disorders of glucose metabolism, free water clearance, mineral metabolism, lipid metabolism and GH secretion and growth, metabolic bone diseases, adrenal dysfunction, thyroid disorders and reproductive dysfunction. Early detection and treatment of endocrine deficiency may have a significant impact on the quality and duration of life in a cancer survivor.
6.Native Research of International Affective Picture System:Assessment in University Students
Chinese Journal of Clinical Psychology 2006;0(06):-
Objective:The International Affective Picture System (IAPS) is developed to provide a set of standardized emotional stimuli for experimental investigations of emotion and attention.However,the concerned parameters have not been systematically assessed or testified in Chinese people living in totally different culture from American.Methods:300 subjects were selected to assess the valence,arousal and dominance of all the 704 pictures in IAPS with the order to make the native assessment in China.Results:The results showed significant difference in dimensions of valence and arousal between assessed scores of Chinese subjects and the original data of IAPS,despite a high correlation was observed between them.On pictures containing intense feeling or sexy which contradicted traditional Chinese culture,the valence scores assessed in China were significantly lower than the original data while the arousal scores were significantly higher.Conclusion:It is concluded that native assessment should be seriously considered to select pictures from IAPS while making research for Chinese subjects allowing for the eastern and western cultural differences.

Objective To investigate the effect of a new cloned full length gene, C2 gene, which encodes human eukaryotic translation initiation factor, on tumorigenesis of human gastric cancer cells in vivo and in vitro. Methods A constructed eukaryotic vector carrying the full length of C2 gene was amplified, purified, and transfected into a gastric cell line SGC7901 cell. The expression of C2 protein was examined with fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS) and Western Blot. The effect of C2 gene on tumorigenesis of human gastric cancer cells was investigated in vitro and in vivo with methods of clone formation in plate and oncogenesis in nude mouse. Results FACS and Western Blot showed that C2 protein was expressed highly and stably in transfected cells. The average clone formation rate of C2 gene transducted cells is 43.8%, the rate which is lower than that of vector transducted cells (76.9%). In vivo, the time of tumorigenesis of C2 gene transducted cells in nude mouse is prolonged from 1 week to 2 weeks, and the volume of tumor node is smaller than that of vector transducted cells, that is, 1.20 and 5.58 cm 3 respectively ( P
