Object To study the effects of artemisinin and its analogue artemisunate on the proliferation of human breast cancer MCF-7 cell line, as well as their mechanism comparatively. Methods The inhibition of cell proliferation was determined by SRB method. Cell cycle was determined by flow cytometry (FCM) analysis. Apoptosis was confirmed by sub-G 1 cells content and DAPI method. Results The cell cycle of MCF-7 was changed greatly when treated 24 h with either 10 ?mol/L artemisinin or 1 ?mol/L artemisunate, the distribution of MCF-7 cells among S phase was reduced greatly, while inereased during G 0+G 1. However, artemisinin had weaker effect on the proliferation of MCF-7 cell, while artemisunate effectively inhibited the proliferation of MCF-7, the IC 50 was 0.31 ?mol/L. Apoptosis induced by 1 ?mol/L artemisunate was stronger than that by 10 ?mol/L artemisinin, too. Conclusion The inhibitory effect of artemisunate on the proliferation of tumor cell is stronger than that of artemisinin in vitro.

The Theory of Change holds that the change in a project ’ s effectiveness can be derived from the changing process in the certain context .Only after analyzing changes caused by a project and the possible changing path or hypothesis can we determine the real cause of an effect .In 2012, the maternal, child and community health department of the former Ministry of Health began a comprehensive intervention project for children ’ s health in Nu-jiang Prefecture .The project was designed to explore modes and mechanisms for improving children ’ s health in the west, poverty and ethnic minority areas through cooperation at the national , provincial, and prefecture levels.Based on the Theory of Change , this article describes the logical framework of the comprehensive intervention project .In or-der to lay the foundation for improving the project design , ensuring the implementation of the project and conducting the follow-up monitoring and evaluation , we also expound the goals , implementation strategies , and intervention measures, project activities and output , implementation routes .

ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effects and mechanism of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) on α-naphthylisothi (ANIT)-induced cholestatic liver injury in rats.MethodsA total of 48 Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were selected.Fouty-two rats were gavaged with ANIT (100 mg/kg) to induce acute liver injury,six rats were sacrificed 24 hours after the liver injury and the rats left were evenly divided into control group which were gavaged with saline and UDCA group which were gavaged with UDCA (20 mg/kg).Six rats were sacrificed at 48 hours,72 hours and 96 hours after modeling.The six untreated rats were set as blank control group.Serum and liver tissues of all rats were kept after sacrificed.Serum levels of alanine transaminase (ALT),aspartate transaminase (AST),total bilirubin (TBil) and total bile acid (TBA) were tested,interleukin-10 (IL-10),interleukin-6 (IL-6),and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).The expression of multidrug resistance associated protein2 (Mrp2) at mRNA level in liver tissue was measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and the inflammatory reaction activity of liver tissues was inspected with Haematoidin-Eosin (HE)staining under microscope.ResultsAt 48 hours after liver injury modeling,serum TBil (143.80± 12.08) μmol/L vs.(178.50±15.19) μmol/L,TBA (13.15±3.81) μmol/L vs.(21.68±7.93)mol/L,IL-10 (44.13±3.68,37.15±6.25 ng/L),IL-6(50.80±2.09,57.32±4.63 ng/L) and TNF-α (17.53±0.84) ng/L vs,(19.10±1.64) ng/L of UDCA group and control group were compared,and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.01 or P< 0.05).At 72 hours after liver injury modeling,serum ALT (721.67±97.54) U/L vs.(929.50±148.29) U/L and IL-10 (54.68±6.79)ng/L vs.(43.85±4.08) ng/L of UDCA group and control group were compared,and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.01 or P<0.05).At 96 hours after liver injury modeling,serum ALT (156.83±14.99) U/L vs.(250.67±42.29) U/L,AST (143.67±27.45) U/L vs.(206.00±63.94) U/L and TBil (23.53±5.08) μmol/L vs.(34.02±9.98) μmol/L of UDCA group and control group were compared,and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.01 or P<0.05).The differences of Mrp2 expression at mRNA level in liver tissues between UDCA group and control group at 48 hours (0.77 ± 0.21,0.46 ± 0.25),72 hours (2.27 ±0.84,1.10 ±0.38) and 96 hours (3.64±0.54,2.75±0.69) after liver injury modeling were statistically significant (P<0.01 or P<0.05).ConclusionThe mechanism of the protective effects of UDCA on ANIT-induced liver injury may be related with the regulation of serum cytokines and liver Mrp2 expression.

In this paper , we discussed the financing mechanisms of premarital healthcare services from their properties combined with the status quo financing in our country .We then provided the scientific basis and decision-making reference for improving financing mechanism to improve the premarital healthcare system .A literature or doc-umentary and field researches have combed the present situation of the premarital healthcare services financing mech -anisms at home and abroad .Related data were collected in eight research areas , namely Fujian, Guangxi, Yunnan, Hubei, Jiangsu, Heilongjiang, Beijing and Tianjin and the related personnel from health administrative department , civil affairs departments , maternal and child healthcare institutions were interviewed in terms of Field Research .From the main content at present , premarital healthcare services belong to the category of quasi-public goods .We dis-cussed the financing mechanisms from the financing levels , sources of funds , fund allocation , payment and financial regulatory and other aspects .Finally, some policy recommendations were put forward including making clear the na-ture of premarital healthcare service property , establishment of a special financial investment mechanism , unify the basic financing service standard after scientific feasibility studies , timely and fully allocate special premarital health-care service funds to strengthen the fund supervision policy recommendations .

Objective:This article uses the Mitt-Horn Model to analyze the premarital healthcare policies imple-mentation, in order to seek viable path for the effective implementation .Methods: Eight provinces, namely Guangxi, Fujian, Yunnan, Jiangsu, Hubei, Heilongjiang, Tianjin and Beijing were chosen to carry out the field research .Relevant information and data were collected through interviews , questionnaires, site visits, etc., and all relate to the implementa-tion of a qualitative premarital analysis policy .Results:The research areas have refined the local premarital policy targets under the relevant legal framework , and have improved the policy implementation resources and execution environment . Conclusion:The premarital healthcare effects of measures implemented in the country based on the actual situation is good, but there are still some problems such as poor policy implementation with no in-depth sector, resource investment deficit in the policy , insufficient inter-department coordination and other issues affecting the policy implementation results .
