Angiogenesis is one of the important pathological characteristics in the development of tumor growth. Hence ,an?ti-angiogenes is has become a hot topic in the field of cancer research. The current strategy for anti-angiogenesis therapy is to restore the angiogenic balance which is broken in the tumor via either block of proangiogenic factorsor application of angiogenic inhibitors. Endogenous angiogenic inhibitors show more promising prospects compared with proangiogenic factor antagonists. However ,the un?derlying mechanisms for the angiogenic inhibitors remain to be thoroughly elucidated. There are two kinds of endogenous angiogenic inhibitors,one is the hydrolyzed fragments of precursor protein,such as plasminogen Kringle 5(K5),angiostatin/kringle 1~4,end?ostatin,etc;the other is cell secreted proteins,such as pigment epithelium-derived factor(PEDF),kallikrein-binding protein (KBP/kallistatin),antithrombin,etc. Here we summarized the research progresses on the biological functions,underlying mecha?nisms of tumor angiogenesis and application prospects of K5,PEDF,and KBP,so as to provide insights into the antiangiogenic ther?apies of tumor in the future.

Objective:To explore the effect of Shenfu Injection (SFI) on expression of Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and iNOS (inducible nitric oxide synthase) in renal failure rats induced by intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (IR) and its possible mechanism. Methods:The model of intestinal ischemia-reperfusion was induced by clamping superior mesenteric artery for one hour and then releasing the arterial clamp for six hours. Wistar rats were randomized into three groups:IR+normal saline group,IR+SFI group and control group (C group). The serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen were observed respectively. Expression of HO-1 and iNOS in rat kidney tissue was detected by immunohistochemitry and morphometry computer image analysis. The histological change of kidney was observed under light microscope. Results:①Compared with C group,expression of HO-1 and iNOS increased markedly in IR+ normal saline group (P

OBJECTIVE To investigate the resistance of Staphylococcus to erythromycin and clindamycin and detect the percentage and gene for inducible resistance in Tai'an.METHODS The susceptibilities of Staphylococcus to erythromycin and clindamycin were examined by Kirby-Bauer disc agar diffusion test and the inducible erythromycin resistance to clindamycin was checked by D-test according to the standards of NCCLS,and the resistance genes msrA,Vgb,sat4,ermA,ermB and ermC were detected by using PCR technology.RESULTS Among the 326 strains,162(44.12%)were all resistant to erythromycin and clindamycin;68(20.86%)were resistant to erythromycin and sensitive to clindamycin but they were positive in D-test;42(12.88%)were resistant to erythromycin and sensitive to clindamycin but they were negative in D-test.The rates of inducible resistance of MRSA,MSSA,MRCNS and MSCNS to clindamycin were 40.00%,56.25%,63.38% and 66.67%,respectively among the Staphylococcus which were resistant to erythromycin and sensitive to clindamycin.The gene ermC was the main one for inducible erythromycin resistance to clindamycin.The percentage of gene ermC was 85.29% and that of ermC and sat4 either was 7.35%;all the others were negative.CONCLUSIONS The rate of inducible erythromycin resistance to clindamycin in our area is relatively high,and D-test in clinical microbiology laboratory should be done so that the physicians can select the reasonable MLSB antimicrobial agents.

BACKGROUND:Preterm premature rupture of the membrane is a frequent complication during gestational period. Three-dimensional culture can help damaged tissue restore anatomical integrality,being worth for clinical application. OBJECTIVE:To explore biological characteristics of human amniotic cells three-dimensionally cultured by fibrin scaffold,study the possibility of cell/scaffold composite material for repairing preterm premature rupture of the membrane,and to compare with normal monolayer culture. DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:An in vitro cell/scaffold study was performed at the Basic Institute of Chongqing University of Medical Science between December 2007 and November 2008. MATERIALS:Amnion tissue derived from uterine-incision delivery women was provided by the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology,the First Affiliated Hospital,Chongqing University of Medical Sciences;fibrinogen was provided by Sigma,USA. METHODS:Either epithelial cells or mesenchymal cells,being isolated from human amniotic membrane,were cultivated using enzyme digestion and repeated adherence methods. Fibrinogen was conglomerated,and epithelial cells of logarithmic growth were plated onto the surface of fibrin scaffold to simulate a three-dimensional culture in vitro. Before conglomerating fibrinogen,mesenchymal cells of logarithmic growth were mixed with fibrin solution to simulate a three-dimensional culture in vivo. In addition,either epithelial cells or mesenchymal cells were incubated onto 24-well plate for normal monolayer culture. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Cell morphology using inverted microscopy,proliferation of mesenchymal cells,and interaction between mesenchymal cells and scaffold under different culture environments. RESULTS:Epithelial cells were round and smooth on the surface of fibrin scaffold,pseudopodia were stretched out,and microvillus were rich. Mesenchymal cells in fibrin glue were fusiform in shape and stretched out along scaffold. Cells formed net structure at different surfaces. By three-dimensional culture,proliferation of mesenchymal cells was stable but slow compared to monolayer culture. By in vivo three-dimensional culture,fibrin glue gradually shrank and gel thickness gradually decreased. On the 5th day,the gel thickness was only 40% for the initial thickness,and on the 15th day,gel thickness was 10%. CONCLUSION:Both epithelial cells and mesenchymal cells can sterically grow on fibrin scaffold,and the proliferation is stable. Fibrin glue gradually shrinks in cell/fibrin composite scaffold,suggesting that amniotic cells/fibrin composite scaffold can simulate body tissues to repair preterm premature rupture of the membrane.

Along with the mediated society,there are the problems in students'current media literacy,such as the alienation of media using,inability to distinguish'media reality'and'objective reality',lacking of media ethics and consciousness of self-discipline.Based on the analysis of these problems,in combination with the actual college education,we put forward the realization ways and the corresponding strategies to improve the students'media literacy.

Objective To investigate the effect of T cell vaccination(TCV)on the survival time of cardiac allograft in rat.Methods Rat heterotopic cardiac transplantation was performed,Donor antigenprimed recipients' spleen cells were obtained bv 1/3 splenectomy for the preparation of TCV.TCV was then intraperitoneally into the abdominal cavity again.The survival time of cardiac allograft was observed.Results TCV could markedly prolonged rat cardiac allograft survival.T cell proliferation was increased and B cell proliferation was not affected in the vaccinated rats.The mixed lymphocyte reaction(MLR)was inhibited,The analysis of phenotypes on T cells showed that the number of CD8+ clones in vaccine cells and vaccinated rat spleen cells were increased.The antibody-mediated cytotoxicity was not affected by TCV.Conclusions TCV enhances the recipients' T cell-mediated immune response.The TCV-induced hyporeactivity to specific donor antigen is related to the induction of anti-idiotypic response and is not associated with humoral mechanisms.

Objective To investigate vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and TNF-α levels in the serum of patients with primary hepatocellur carcinoma(HCC),and to evaluate their relevance with the development and metastasis of HCC.Methods VEGF and TNF-α levels in serum were examined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) technology in 87 patients with HCC and 10 healthy individuals.Results Serum VEGF and TNF-α,levels in HCC patients were significantly higher than that in the contorl group.In addition,HCC patients infected with hepatitis virus(including HBV and HCV) showed a remarkable elevation in serum VEGF and TNF-α levels.The VEGF and TNF-α levels in HCC with metastasis were also higher than those without metastasis.Conclusion The serum VEGF and TNF-α levels in HCC patients might serve as the pivotal biological indices that could reflect HCC progressien and metastasis.
