Objective To preparemicroRNA-34 a loaded liposome and evaluate the targeting efficiency for lung cancer stem cells and effect on the treatment of lung cancer. Method The liposomes were prepared by thin film hydration method. The particle size,Zeta potential and entrapment efficiency were evaluated. Stability of liposome in serum was evaluated. The efficiency of cellular uptake on lung cancer stem cells in vitro was evaluated. The anti-proliferation efficiency of miLPs-34 a was evaluated by MTT assay. Tumor spheroids were used to evaluate anti-tumor ability of miLPs-34 a. Lung cancer stem cells were used to build orthotopictumor model, which were used to evaluate the effect of anti-cancer. Results The particle diameter of the miLPs-34 a was (136.55±11.4) nm with the Zeta potential of (21.45±4.55) mV. The entrapment efficiency of microRNA-34 awas 94.6%.the results demonstrated that the liposomes could keep stable in 50%serum for 24 h. miLPs-34 a uptaken by lung cancer stem cells were 3.1 times higher than that of microRNA-34 a(P<0.01). The MTT assay confirmed strong inhibitory effect of miLPs-34 a than microRNA-34 a(P<0.01). the inhibition of tumor spheroid confirmed strong inhibitory effect of miLPs-34 a than microRNA-34 a(P<0.01). The anti-tumor of miLPs-34 a was much more effectively than microRNA-34 a(P<0.01).Conclusion the microRNA-34 a loaded liposome could target to lung cancer stem cells and inhibit the proliferation of lung cancer stem cell. MiLPs-34 a, as a new nanometer drug, has a special application value for the therapy of lung cancer stem cell.

AIM: To study the chemical constituents of Elaeagnus pungens. METHODS: Chemical constituents were separated through chromatographic methods and their structures were elucidated by spectral analysis. RESULTS: Five compounds were isolated from the petroleum ether extract of leaves of Elaeagnus pungens Thunb.Their structures were elucidated as hentriantane(1),lupeol(2),?-sitosterol(3),oleanolic acid(4) and 3,5-dihydroxy4,7-dimethoxy flavone(5). CONCLUSION: Compounds hentriantane(1) and 3,5-dihydroxy-4,7-dimethoxyflavone(5) were isolated from this plant for the first time.

Diphtheria is an ancient disease.Since the implementation of enhanced program of immunization by WHO in 1978,the global incidence of diphtheria decreased sharply.There were no diphtheria cases reported in recent years in China,but there were still diphtheria cases and outbreak reported in surrounding countries.It is necessary to strengthen the laboratory diagnosis of diphtheria in China to prevent the recurrence and for early detection of emergent and imported diphtheria cases.Here in this review,the laboratory diagnosis of diphtheria and its progress were summarized.

Treatment of senile diseases by Chinese patent medicine should prescribe according to physiological and pathological specialty of the aged. It's necessary for treatment according to syndrome differentiation associating with the disease,reasonable combination of drugs avoiding adverse reactions,gentle medicine character but not fierce,small medicine quantity but not great, the use of Chinese patent medicine mild and tonic used properly but not excessively.

C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute phase reaction protein,which is very sensitive to the inflammatory reaction.Many studies have confirmed that CRP is closely correlated with ischemic stroke and atherosclerosis.However,studies on correlation between CRP and intracerebral hemorrhage are less.This article reviews the relationship between CRP and intracerebral hemorrhage.

Medical ethics is a set of behavioural principles which regularized medical workers' relationships to patients and society and that between themselves under social ethics and the development of medical science.It is an essential constituent of the social ethical system and plays an important role in medical activity.By studying the current situation of the ethics-oriented education on medical students,the author re-analyzed the current state of medical ethics and proposed some creative and feasible methods on improving the quality of medical ethics of the students.

OBJECTIVE:To improve the rational compatible use of Chinese patent medicines with western medicines. METHODS:A total of 24 000 prescriptions were randomly sampled from July 10th to July 15th in 2006 for an analysis of the compatibility of Chinese patent medicines containing Salvia miltiorrhiza,Radix et Rhizoma Glycyrrhizae,Radix et Rhizoma Rhei with western medicines.RESULTS:Of the total 24 000 prescriptions analyzed,6 830(or 3 213 patients) involved combined use of Chinese patent medicines with western medicines,of which,the irrational combination for Salvia miltiorrhiza-contained,Radix et Rhizoma Glycyrrhizae-contained and Radix et Rhizoma Rhei-contained Chinese medicines with western medicines totalled 128,118 and 16 cases respectively.CONCLUSION:When the Chinese patent medicines being used in combination with western medicines,their physicochemical and pharmacological properties should be taken into fully consideration so as to achieve rational combination.

Beginning with the principle of justice, this article analyzed the reasons of medical disputes due to the lack of the principle of justice from four aspects including patients, social media, medical institutions, and medical staff. Corresponding countermeasures were put forward based on the causes of the disputes: fostering cor-rect consciousness of medical treatment, persisting on objective propaganda and creating a favorable environment, strengthening the construction of medical ethics and increasing health investment, strengthening the professional competency education for medical staff, and setting up medical dispute mediation organizations dominated by the third party.

Objective To study the distribution and antimicrobial susceptibilities of anaerobic bacteria from periodontal pockets of patients with chronic periodontitis, so as to guide the anti-infection therapy. Methods Eighty-four patients with chronic periodontitis were enrolled in this study. The anaerobes were isolated from periodontal pockets of patients with chronic periodontitis. Antimicrobial susceptibility of the anaerobes to seven kinds of antibiotics (like metronidazole, penicillin, cefmetazole, etc.) was tested with the agar dilution technique. Results A total of 305 cultivable anaerobes were isolated from periodontal pockets of 84 patients with chronic periodontitis. All patients were infected by anaerobes. 59.34%of cultivable anaerobes were gram-positive anaerobes, and 40.66%were gram-negative anaerobes. The P.melanin ogenica and P.gingivalis were the most common among the cultivable anaerobes, accounting for 51.19% and 55.95%, followed by P.intermedia (36.90%), P.micros (35.71%), F.mucleatum (33.33%), Capnocytophaga ssp (27.38%), Actinomyces ssp (10.71%), and so on. Most isolated anaerobes were sensitive to seven antibiotics. All isolated anaerobes were susceptible to Chloromycetin and Imipenem. 98.03%of isolated anaerobes were susceptible to Amoxicillin. Approximately 76%to 88%of isolated anaerobes were susceptible to Cefmetazole and Metronidazole. Susceptibility to Clindamycinum and Penicillin were 65.91%and 55.73%. Conclusions There is a close relationship between chronic periodontitis and anaerobes. P.melanin ogenica and P.gingivalis are the most frequently isolated anaerobes from periodontal pockets of patients with chronic periodontitis. Chloromycetin and Imipenem can be used for the treatment of anaerobes infected chronic periodontitis.
