The aim is to investigate the effects of tumornecrosis factor ?(TNF?0 and interferon a(IFN?) on the cytotoxicity of mitomycin C(MMC) in vitro. The cytotoxicity of the three agents against gastric cancer cell line and freshly isolated gastric cancer cells were determined by the MTT assay. TNF? and/or IFN? (each 0~5000U/ml) showed cytotoxicity effects only on one of ten cell cultures dose-dependently; the combination resulted in a more significant effect. The combination of MMC with TNF? (30U/ml) or IFN?(l00U/ml) could enhance the cytotoxicity of MMC on two of three cell cultures synergisticly. When three agents were used together, the cytotoxicity of MMC against the ten cell cultures was enhanced synergisticly. TNF? and IFN? could enhance the cytotoxicity of MMC synergisticly, and this may make the cancer chemotherapy more effective.

The level of the in vitro synthesis of secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) was determined by the sissue culture of the endoscopically biopsied gastric mucosa from patients with noncancerous gastric diseases. The amount of SIgA synthesis in chronic superficial gastritis (4.35?0.32?g/mg) and chronic atrophic gastritis (4. 82?0. 22ug/mg) was higher than that in the normal stomach (2.76?0.21 ?g/mg) (p

The levels of serum iron (Fe), total iron binding capacity (T IBC), transferrin saturation (TS), transferrin (Tf), ferritin (SF), hemoglobin (Hb) and serum soluble transferrin receptor(sTIR) were observed in both groups. Results Jianpi Shengxue Granule showed better results in treating patients with iron deficiency anemia than Hexue Capsule with significant difference (P<0.05). Conclusion Jianpi Shengxue Granule is effective in treating iron deficiency anemia.

A new group of gastric cancer associated antigens in sera of patients with rectal cancer, benign diseases and normal human were detected by MG series monoclonal antibodies against gastric cancer. The average values of normal persons plus 3 standard deviations was set as the highest limit of normal value. The positive rate were 69.7% (23/33) in sera of patients with rectal cancer, and 4%(1/25) in sera of patients with benign diseases. The values of MG-Ags were decreased to normal level 8-10 days after surgical removal in 5 patients of rectal cancer. The results of test suggest that determination of MG-Ags in serum of patients might be helpful in the diagnosis of rectal carcinoma.

At the same time, thalidomide is given 150-200 mg/d. Results The overall response rate (ORR) is 80.95%. Before and after treatment, all the detection indicators in MM patients were statistically different (P＜0.001). There is small adverse reactions. Conclusion Low dose thalidomide combined with VAD regimen contained one-week dexamethasone in treatment of MM has more merits such as less side effects, good tolerance, convenient administration and significant curative effects, so it should be recommended in clinical works.

Combunung wuth fluorescence excutatuon-emussuon matrux ( EEM ) spectra and parallel factor analysus, suze exclusuon chromatography ( SEC ) equupped wuth multu-excutatuon/emussuon scan model fluorescence detector was used for the analysus of the composutuon of dussolved organuc matter ( DOM) usolated from landfull leachates wuth dufferent ages. The analytucal results showed that the two leachate-deruved DOMs both comprused proteun- and humuc-luke substances. However, there were four kunds of proteun-luke matter un young landfull leachates, u. e. , proteun wuth hugh molecular weught, proteun-luke matter bound to humuc-luke substances wuth hugh or low molecular weught, and peptude/amuno acuds. Whule there were only two kunds of proteun-luke matter un old landfull leachates, u. e. , proteun wuth hugh molecular weught and proteun-luke matter bound to humuc-luke substances wuth hugh molecule weught. Compared wuth SEC, EEM spectra coupled wuth parallel factor analysus could udentufy the proteun-luke matter bound wuth humuc-luke substances or those presented as non-humuc-luke substances, though ut could not udentufy the proteun-luke matter presented as proteun and that presented as peptude/ amuno acuds. The experumental results demonstrated that EEM spectra coupled wuth PARAFAC analysus and SEC could be used to characteruze proteun- and humuc-luke matter presented as dufferent specues.

Objective: To investigate the correlation between the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and angiogenesis in tumor. Methods: VEGF 165 sense and antisense gene recombinants were introduced into human gastric cancer cells, respectively. Then the growth of transfected cells in nude mice and the microvascular density and histological change were examined. Results: The growth rate of tumor in nude mice inoculated with sense VEGF cells was markedly higher than that in nude mice inoculated with antisense-VEGF cells. In histological examination, the microvascular density in tumor caused by sense-VEGF cells was greatly higher than that in tumor caused by antisense VEGF cells. Conclusion: As starting angiogenesis, VEGF might promote the growth of tumor, and the inhibition of VEGF production might prevent solid tumor from growing.

Background and purpose:The prognosis of high grade gliomas remains poor, and multidisciplinary treatment strategy has been much investigated recently. This study was to explore the efficacy of Temozolomide as first-line treatment combined with radiotherapy and followed by adjuvant chemotherapy for the treatment of newly diagnosed high grade gliomas. Methods:18 patients who had been pathologically proven to be high grade gliomas were enrolled into the study. The patients received 40 Gy/20fractions for the whole brain and followed by 20Gy/10fractions as a boost to tumor bed. All of the patients were given daily oral temozolomide 75mg/ m2 during radiotherapy. 4 weeks after radiotherapy, all of the patients received 6 cycles of Temozolomide, each cycle lasted 5 days with 28 days interval between each cycles. 150 mg/m2 of temozolomide was given for the first cycle for five days,followd by 200 mg/m2 of drug for the rest of the cycles if no significant drug related toxicities were observed. Results:Median follow-up was 12.5 months, 11 cases had either recurrence or progression, 5 of them died from the disease. The median time for disease progression-free survival was 9.8 months (95% CI, 6.1~9.8months), the median time for overall survival was 14 months (95% CI, 8.5 ~ 19.5months), 1-year overall survival rate was 55.6% ,6-month progression-free survival rate was 81.8%. there were no severe temozolomide related toxicities. Conclusion: Concurrent temozolomide with radiotherapy and followed by 6 cycles of temozolomide in the treatment of high grade gliomas had better clinical efficacy, the patients tolerated the strategy well and no severe toxicities were observed.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the changes of volt-ampere characteristics of Yuan-Primary acupoints in women before, during and after menstruation, and to find out the relationships between Qi-blood in human body and volt-ampere characteristics of acupoints, so as to develop a new method for quantitative analysis on changes of Qi-blood. METHODS: A high-sensitive detection system of volt-ampere characteristics of acupoint was applied to detecting the volt-ampere characteristics of Taiyuan (LU 9), Daling (PC 7) and Shenmen (HT 7) in healthy women before, during and after menstruation. RESULTS: The resistances on LU 9, PC 7 and HT 7 with some certain scan currents were quite different among the women before, during and after menstruation. For such changes, PC 7 was of the most obvious change, LU 9 was of the less and HT 7 was of the least. The total ratio of the scanning spots with significantly increasing changes of resistances on these three acupoints along with the menstrual process was 70.6%. CONCLUSION: The volt-ampere characteristics of acupoints vary with the menstrual process, which is of the acupoint specificity. The resistances on the acupoints increase with the menstrual process, and such results may be due to the blood loss during menstruation. The volt-ampere characteristics can be used as a quantitative index to study on the change of Qi and blood.
