Objective:To observe the efficacy of Tegafur gimeracil oteracil potassium(Gio) capsules combined with oxaliplatin in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer,and explore its effect on matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) expression in cancer tissues. Methods: Totally 120 patients with advanced gastric cancer were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group, and both groups were treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy for 3 cycles as follows:the observation group was given Gio capsules and oxaliplatin,and the control group was given 5-fluorouracil combined with oxaliplatin. The short term efficacy,adverse reactions and ex-pression of MMP-9 in cancer tissue before and after the chemotherapy were observed in the two groups. Results:After the treatment, the objective response rate in the two groups had no significant difference(P>0.05);the clinical benefit rate of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group(P<0.05);the incidence of severe bone marrow suppression and liver and kid-ney dysfunction in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05);after the treatment,the pos-itive expression of MMP-9 in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05). Conclusion:Gio capsules combined with oxaliplatin can improve the clinical benefit rate of the patients with advanced gastric cancer,and effectively re-duce the expression of MMP-9 in cancer tissue.

Objective To enhance the understanding of the quality control of rubber closures and to promote pharmaceutical manufacturers'reasonable selection and effective management of rubber closures.Methods According to the performance needs of drug products for rubber closures,the impacts of the ingredients and manufacturing processes of rubber closures with other possible influence on drug products were analyzed.Complied with the requirements of pharmaceutical lifecycle management,the processes of selection and utilization of rubber closures were divided into three periods,including screening,validation and maintenance,and suggestions on the tasks and goals for these three periods were given.Results Though the actual performance of rubber closures was affected by multiple factors,the processability in the pharmaceutical manufacturing processes and the suitability in the periods of storage,transportation and clinical application could be confirmed by reasonable screening and scientific validation of rubber closures.And by the effective quality control of rubber closures,the suitability could be maintained across the lifecycle of drug products.Conclusion By means of the reasonable selection and effective quality control of rubber closures,it would be benefit for keeping drug safety,efficacy and quality controllability throughout the lifecycle.

After ischemic stroke, the key to reduce the mortality and disability rate is to restore the blood supply of brain tissue as soon as possible. However, the cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (CIRI) caused by blood flow restoration is also an important cause of brain tissue structural damage and dysfunction. Studies in recent years have shown that the activation of mitophagy at CIRI stage can reduce the volume of cerebral infarction and protect neurons from CIRI, while excessive or insufficient mitophagy can aggravate CIRI. This suggests that inducing moderate mitophagy may be a potential therapeutic target for neuroprotection after stroke. However, the neuroprotective mechanism of mitophagy has not yet been fully elucidated. This article reviews the neuroprotective mechanism and potential application of mitophagy in stroke, and discusses some problems of mitophagy as a therapeutic target for stroke.
