Epigenetic modification, which involve DNA methylation, RNA-associated silencing and histone modification, is implicated in cell proliferation, differentiation, survival, apoptosis and malignant transformation. Some leukemogenesis has been shown to be aberrance of epigenetic modification. This paper discussed the potential causes of some of leukemias correlating with the methylation of cell cycle regulation genes, small interference RNA and modification abnormality of histone after translation. The study on epigenetic modification abnormality of leukemia cells provides a new strategy for treatment of leukemia.

Posterior circulation iscbemia refers to the transient iscbemic attack and the cerebral infarction in vertebrobasilar artery system,its prognosis is not as good as anterior circulation ischemia,and its treatment is similar to that of anterior circulation ischemia.However,because of the mortality of basilar artery occlusion is higher,usually more aggressive treatment should be considered,such as thromholytic therapy(especially intra-arterial thromholysis)and endovas- cular therapy,and the therapeutic time window is much longer.This article reviews the treatment of anterior circulation ischemia.

Objective]To investigate academic thoughts of Prof. Yan Dexin in spleen and stomach syndrome treatment.[Methods]The paper summarized the academic origin, academic thoughts as well as practical treatment cases of Prof. Yan Dexin ’s spleen and stomach syndrome treatment theory. [Results]The main points of Prof. Yan’s academic thought on spleen and stomach therapy has succeeded and developed the therapy of Menghe physician, which includes an emphasis on spleen Qi rise and stomach Yin drop, Qi of spleen and stomach regulation, special attention on the function of the stomach-yang and spleen-yin, an advocation ofspleen leading four organs, and therapy design from spleen with an ingenious use of atractylodes rhizome, Atractylodes and Zhizhu pill. [Conclusion] Professor Yan Dexin developed his unique theoretical system in spleen-stomach diseases therapy on basis of the experiences of spleen and stomach disease treatment from ancient physicians, which is instructive for later physicians.

Xiao Zhi Ling Injection is a Chinese herbal aqueous solution of praeparatum which is mainly made of gallnut and alum, it can make a " strengthening body resistance " treatment in polytype tumors, mainly through promoting apoptosis of tumor cells, destructing tumor cells, inhibiting tumor growth, enhan-cing immunity of organism and so on, the clinical effect is certain, with the development of theory and tech-nology in tumor molecular biology, it has become the core of future research that how to further explore Xiao-Zhi-Ling injection to promote tumor cell apoptosis by impacting on related genes, and its lucubrate inevitably provide new hope in gene therapy of cancer.

Sleep plays an important role in the modulation of endocrine function and energy metabolism;hormone levels are markedly different during a sleepless night compared with a night of normal sleep.Sleep deprivation may change the levels of cortisol,growth hormone(GH)and thyrotropin(TSH)at night.In addition,sleep curtailment disturbs the balance of anorexi- genic(leptin)and orexigenic(ghrelin)factors,and does harmful to glucose tolerance.

Objective:To explore the pathogenesis of abnormal behavior in children with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS).Method:The behavioral problems and C-reactive protein were measured in 40 children with OSAHS and 30 children with habitual snoring who underwent overnight Polysomnography,40 cases of healthy children for the control group.Result:The ratio of abnormal behavior in OSAHS and abitual snoring children was significantly higher than that of the healthy control group,while no significant difference between the two groups.The content of C-reactive protein in OSAHS children(4.24 mg/L)was significantly higher than habitual snoring(2.76mg/L)and healthy control group(1.27mg/L);in habitual snoring children C-reactive protein was higher than in healthy control group.The content of serum C-reactive protein in OSAHS children accompanied by abnormal behavior(4.63 mg/L)was significantly higher than that without abnormal behavior(3.23 mg/L).The content of serum C-reactive protein content in habitual snoring children accompanied y abnormal behavior (3.63 mg/L)was significantly higher than that without abnormal behavior(1.76 mg/L).Conclusion:OSAHS and habitual snoring children have more behavior problems.C-reactive protein levels are higher in children with OSAHS and habitual snoring.and the levels of C-reactive protein are related to the abnormal ehavior in these children.
