Merely having complete sequences of genomes is not sufficient to elucidate biological function. Proteomics is complementary to genomics because it focuses on the large scared gene products, which are the active agents in cells. As almost all the drugs are directed against proteins, proteomics have been widely used in pharmacological research.Proteomics profiling in drug target identification, toxicological and drug resistances research was reviewed.

Objective To compare the efficacy of video-assisted thoracoscopy plus minithoracotomy(VAMT) and limited axillary thoracotomy(LAT) for the treatment of lung cancer.Methods 85 consecutive lung cancer patients were treated by either VAMT or LAT.The operative time,blood loss during operation,postoperative chest drainage time,and hospital stay time and postoperative complication were compared between the two groups.Results There was no death in two groups.The operative time and blood loss during operation were significant less in VAMT than inLAT(t =6.514,2.413,all P <0.05).But postoperative chest drainage time,and hospital stay time and postoperative complication were no significant difference between the two groups (t =0.490,0.338,all P > 0.05).Conclusion VAMT is a safe and less traumatic procedure in the treatment of lung cancer,which is worthy of promotion and application.

Objective:To improve the quality standard for Kangshiming mixtures. Methods:The identification of Angelicae Sinen-sis Radix, Astragali Radix and Phellodendri Chinensis Cortex was carried out by TLC. The contents of puerarin and paeoniflorin in the preparations were determined by HPLC. Results:The spots displayed in TLC were clear without interference from the negative control. The linear range for puerarin was 1. 64-49. 20μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 9) and 4. 22-63. 30μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 6) for paeoniflorin. The average recovery was 99. 63%(RSD=2. 14%,n=9) and 99. 05%(RSD=2. 70%,n=9) for puerarin and paeoniflorin, respectively. Conclusion:The method is accurate, reliable and specific, and can be used in the quality control of Kangshiming mixtures.

Objective To investigate the classification and treatment of displaced intra articular fractures of the calcaneus. Methods Twelve displaced intra articular fractures of the calcaneus in 8 patients were included in this study. Classification of calcaneus fractures was done according to Sanders' computed tomographic classification system. There were 2 cases of type Ⅱfractures, 4 type Ⅲfractures and 6 type Ⅳfractures. The open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) and bone grafting were performed using a standard extended lateral approach, and the fractures were fixed with small fragment AO bridge plates with autogenous bone grafting. Average follow up was 28.6 months (range 24 to 33 months). The Creighton Nebraska Health Foundation Assessment Score System for fractures of the calcaneus was used for evaluation. Results The average score was 89.7 for type Ⅱ, 86.5 for type Ⅲ, and 73.5 for type Ⅳfractures. There was statistically significant superiority in treatment by ORIF compared with nonoperative methods (P0.05); whereas in type Ⅳfractures, the differences were significant between with and without bone grafting (P

AIM To establish a high performance liquid chromatographic method (HPLC) to determine the concentration of valsartan in human plasma. METHODS Separation was achieved on the lichrospher C 18 column. The mobile phaseconsisted of pH 3 1 phosphate buffer acetonitrile (53∶47, V/V) was used at a flow rate of 1 0 ml?min -1 . The fluorimetric excitation and emission wavelengths were set at 265 nm and 378 nm, respectively. The plasma samples were acidified with HCl, extracted with ethyl acetate. Separate the organic phase, remove the solvent and then residue was dissolved in mobile phase. RESULTS The retention time of valsartan was 12 5 min. The calibration curves were linear in the range of 5 9~ 2 360 ?g?L -1 . The precision values (RSD) of intra day and inter day were determined to be 2 83%~7 07% and 1 57%~8 41% respectively. The absolute recovery rate were 80 30%?5 13%. The method was applied to determine the peak and valley concentrations in plasma of the hypertensive treated with 80mg valsartan per day. CONCLUSION The assay was sensitive and simple. It is suitable for the study of the pharmacokinetics of valsartan.
