Objective In order to understand the mechanism of solute transperitoneal transport, we studied the relationship between IL-8 level and protein transperitoneal transport. Method 12 New Zealand White rabbits were randomly divided into experimental and control groups. 2 5% glucose peritoneal dialysis solution (40ml/kg)contained 3?10 9 CFU staphylococcus aureus 1ml was injected into the abdominal cavity of experimental NZW rabbits and 2 5% glucose peritoneal dialysis solution (40ml/kg)contained 0.9%NaCl solution 1ml was injected into the abdominal cavity of controlling NZW rabbits. The plasma and effluent concentrations of blood creatinine ,glucose,total proteins and albumine were determined respectively, the D/P or D/Do values of creatinine , total proteins ,albumine or glucose were calculated respectively. Results The D/P ratios of creatinine, total proteins and albumin were increased significantly, while the D/Do of glucose was decreased in experimental group on different dwelling time points ,there was a significantly difference,as compared with the control group (P0 05),while there was significantly correlation after 60 mins(P

OBJECTIVE: To establish the preparation method and detection technology of ribavirin polymorphism, and to estimate the bioavailability differences among the ribavirin polymorphs. METHODS: Through polymorphism screening, ribavirin crystals of the form A, B, C, D were obtained. The crystal forms of ribavirin were characterized by different analysis methods, such as single crystal X-ray diffraction method (SXRD), powder X-ray diffraction method (PXRD), differential scanning calorimetry method (DCS), infrared spectrum method (IR) and melting point method (MP). solid ribavirin in different forms were orally administered to rats, and an HPLC-MS method was established to determine the plasma levels of ribavirin, and the bioavailability was analyzed. RESULTS: Of the four polymorphs of ribavirin, form C and form D were reported for the first time. The four polymorphic forms all could be identified by PXRD, DSC, IR and MP. The ρmax and AUC0-t of form A were superior to those of the other forms. CONCLUSION: Characteristic data for ribavirin polymorphism are obtained; and form A of ribavirin is a suitable medicinal crystal. This study has provided the basis for choice of medicinal crystal and the improvement of quality standards.

NDUFS3 is an essential subunit of mitochondrial NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex Ⅰ ) and plays a critical role in the mitochondrial typeⅠ respiration chain.Mutations in this gene are shown to cause neurodegenerative disease such as Leigh syndrome (subacute necrotizing encephalopathy).In recent years,many evidences show that the expression of NDUFS3 proteins are lower in many cancerous cells compared to the corresponding normal cells.It comes to the conclusion that NDUFS3 may play a role in the tumorigenesis.

Objective To identify the molecular components involved in acquired methotrexate-resistance of human choriocarcinoma. Methods Methotrexate-resistant cell line(JAR/MTX) was derived from JAR cell line by exposed to intervally and progressively increasing higher concentration of MTX. cDNA microarray analyses of JAR/MTX and its parental cell line JAR were performed. Results JAR/MTX was established after one year with stable resistance. Its resistant index to MTX was 7.3. Nine genes were differential expressed between JAR/MTX and JAR cells. INSR,SLC1A3,SAT,HBB,and FLJ12443 were underexpressed and HS1,TXNRD1,TAGLN2,and EEF2 were overexpressed in JAR/MTX cells. Conclusion The cDNA microarray system showed that several alterations of gene expression were present in acquired methotrexate-resistance of human choriocarcinoma.

Objective To study the characteristic of memory impairment and its related factors in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods 155 PD patients were assigned to 4 age groups. Clinical memory scale, Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD) and Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (HAMA) were used to assess them. Results The memory quotient (MQ) of PD patients were significantly lower than the norm (P<0.01). The scores of associational learning, direct memory, picture recall and portrait association in each age groups were lower than norm (P<0.05), but nonsense figure recognition (P>0.05). The MQ of PD patients was significantly related with education and depression or anxiety (P<0.01), and was not correlated with age, gender and course of disease (P>0.05). Conclusion The MQ of PD patients are lower especially in associational learning, direct memory, picture recall and portrait association. The MQ of PD patients is correlated with education and depression or anxiety significantly.

Hepatitis virus NAT reagents are now widely used clinically. However, the qulity of domestic and foreign NAT reagents varies dramatically. The main reasons for these differences including the manufacture technique, test principle and assay procedure were discussed in this paper and current status of the quality control of the NAT reagents were also described. Finally, it was pointed out that strengthening public supervision and laboratory internal control are very important for the quality improvement of the domestic reagents.

The "Cancer Toxin" pathogenesis theory is an innovate theoretical system for cancer pathogenesis of Chinese Medicine, which was built on the basis of "Cancer Toxin" concept initially raised by Professor ZHOU Zhong-ying. The mechanism of the transformation from inflammation to carcinoma has become one of hot-points in the field of cancer research at home and abroad in recent years. We focused on discussing the relevance of the "Cancer Toxin" pathogenesis theory with the transformation mechanism from inflammation to cancer, provided evidence for using "Cancer Toxin" pathogenesis theory in intervening transformation from inflammation to cancer, hoping to guide for Chinese medical prevention and treatment of tumor.
