Journal of Practical Obstetrics and Gynecology 2017;33(3):206-209
Objective:To detect the expression of ALDH1 and ABCG2 in the specimens from different levels of cervical lesions.Methods:Use SP immunohistochemistry to detect the expression of ALDH1 and ABCG2 in 76 cases of cervical squamous cancers,52 cases of HSIL,and 37 cases of chronic cervicitis tissues,and analyze the results.Results:①The positive expression rates of ALDH1 and ABCG2 in chronic cervicitis tissues were 5.41% (2/37) and 8.11% (3/37),in HSIL tissues were 23.08% (12/52) and 28.85% (15/52),and in cervical cancers tissues were 53.95% (41/76) and 61.84% (47/76),respectively.The positive expression rates in cervical cancers tissues were significantly higher than in HSIL and Cc hronic cervicitis tissues,(P < 0.05).②The positive expression of ALDH1 in cervical cancer tissues had correlation with tumor grade and lymphnode metastasis (P <0.05),while the positive expression of ABCG2 in cervical cancer tissues had correlation with tumor grade,clinical stage and lymph-node metastasis(P <0.05).③The expressions of ALDH1 and ARCG2 in cervical cancer were positive relative(r =0.535,P < 0.05).Conclusions:The increased expressions of ALDH1 and ABCG2 in cervical squamous cancer may play a role in the occurrence,development and metastasis of cervical squamous cell carcinoma.ALDH1 and ABCG2 may have synergistic effect in occurrence of cervical cancer.

Background Identifying and testing of pain is very necessary for the care and decrease of the suffering of experimental animal in medical experiment.Effective method for testing the pain and distress status of experimental animal with eye disease is still absent in China.Objective This pilot study was to establish an evaluating system for assessing the pain and distress status of bullous keratopathy rabbit model.Methods This study was approved by the Ethic Committee of Beijing University First Hospital.Twelve healthy New Zealand rabbits were selected in this experiment.Bullous keratopathy model was established in the left eyes of 9 rabbits by scraping corneal endothelium as the experimental team,and other 3 rabbits were served as the control team.The cornea lesion was examined by manipulate slit lamp,and the central cornea thickness (CCT) was measured by ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM).Weight+20 Indexes For Pain and Distress Status Referring Guidelines for Pain and Distress in Laboratory Animals made by International Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) were assessed and measured as well.Results Corneal edema and opacity were obvious 1 day after surgery.Corneal bullous appeared from the third day after surgery,and cornea erosion was seen at the location of bullous breakage.The corneal lesions remained until 14 days after surgery.CCT value was (1468±100),(2313±588),(2391±271) and (2362±151) μm,respectively in day 1,3,7 and 14 after the establishment of models,which showed significant increase in comparison with the preoperative CCT (390±6)μm (all P=0.000).However,no significant difference was seen in the CCT between day 3,7 and 14 (P>0.05).Body weight of the rabbits was (3.29±0.20),(3.20-0.17),(2.77±0.25) and (3.10±0.30)kg respectively in day 1,3,7 and 14 after operation,with significant decrease in comparison with the pre-operative weight (3.52-0.18)kg in the experimental team (P=0.008,0.007,0.003,0.004).The scores for pain and distress status of all rabbits in pre-operation of the experimental team and in the control team were zero,and the score was 7 (7,7),11 (10,12),9 (8,10),9 (9,9)in day 1,3,7 and 14 in the experimental team after surgery,with the highest score in day 3,which was bullous and bullous breakage duration.Seven of twenty indexes,including the reduce of diet and drinking,self-imposed isolation/hiding,grinding teeth,aggression,deceased movement,abnormal posture,vocalization occurred in the model animals after surgery.Conclusions Weight+20 Indexes For Pain and Distress Status is an effective,impersonal and quantitative method for observing and evaluating the pain and stress status in bullous keratopathy rabbit.

The combination of medicinal properties refers to expression forms of elements with active properties combined according to a specific sequence. The mode of medicinal property combination refers to the compatible relationship multiple medicinal property combinations. In this paper, based on the mode, safflower, Taohong Siwu decoction, Xuefu Zhuyu decoction and Buyang Huanwu decoction were taken for example to study the characteristics of the compatibility among single herb, herbal pairs and prescriptions. The authors discovered the similarities and differences among them, interpreted the self-similarity in medicinal property combinations of traditional Chinese medicines, and analyzed the compatible relationship among multiple medicinal property combinations, so as to bring forth new ideas in discovering the correlation between the compatibility study mode of traditional Chinese medicines based medicinal property combinations and the efficient compatibility of medicinal property combination.
