1.Thoughts About Current Medical Professional Ethics Education
Chinese Medical Ethics 1995;0(02):-
Nowadays the education of medical professional ethics has been obviously weakened.We can see that from some mainly expressions: There are many prejudices about medical ethics and the medical ethics education seems not very effective.But the medical professional ethics education is an important part of medical education,which directly affects the healthy development of medical and hygienic enterprise.And we must correct it,enhance it.We should inherit the good quarters of traditional medical ethics,reestablish the humanism medicine,promote virtue of medical personnel increasing,and establish the professional ethics of medical students before they become doctors.

Journal of Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2015;(4):652-655,660
Objective To study the in-vitro anti-tumor activities of physalin B (PhB) extracted from Physalis angulata L.. Methods Th e effect of PhB on the cell proliferation and the morphology changes of tumor cell strains HepG2 and SGC7901 was observed by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay and by phase contrast microscopy respectively, and the results were compared to positive control anti-cancer drug hydroxycamptothecine (HCTP) . Apoptosis of HepG2 and SGC7901 cells induced by PhB was determined by 4’ , 6-diamidino-2-phenylindole ( DAPI) staining method. Results MTT results showed that the growth of HepG2 and SGC7901 was significantly inhibited by PhB in dose-and time-dependent manner, and the inhibitory effect of high concentration of PhB was better than the positive control medicine HCTP. Phase contrast microscopy results showed that the cellular morphology was improved by PhB, which was accorded with the results showed by MTT assay. DAPI staining results showed that the apoptosis of HepG2 and SGC7901 was enhanced by PhB. Conclusion PhB extracted from Physalis pubescens L. exerts certain inhibitory effect on the proliferation of HepG2 and SGC7901 cells.

Objective To investigate the changes of follicular regulatory T cells ( Tfr cells) and follicular T helper cells ( Tfh cells) in peripheral blood of children with myasthenia gravis ( MG) . Methods We recruited 28 MG patients and 20 healthy subjects in this study. The percentages of Tfh and Tfr cells in peripheral blood samples were measured by flow cytometry. Real-time PCR was performed to detect the ex-pression of transcription factors and regulatory factors of Bcl-6, c-MAF, Blimp-1 and PD-1 at mRNA level. ELISA was used to detect the levels of IL-2, IL-6, IL-10 and IL-21 in plasma samples and the titers of Ach-Rab and PsMab. Results Compared with the healthy subjects, the MG patients showed higher percentages of Tfh cells and lower percentages of Tfr cells before receiving treatment. The expression of Bcl-6 and c-MAF on CD4+T lymphocytes cells at transcriptional level were significantly enhanced, while the expression of Blimp-1 on CD4+T cells and the expression of PD-1 on Treg cells at transcriptional level were inhibited in the MG patients in comparison with those in healthy subjects. Moreover, decreased levels of IL-2 and increased levels of IL-21 were found in plasma samples collected from the MG patients. Conclusion The decreased percentages of Tfr cells and increased percentages of Tfh cells in patients with MG resulted in abnormal ratios of Tfr/Tfh cells, which might be involved in the immunological pathogenesis of MG. Several changes in the patients with MG might be responsible for the imbalanced ratio of Tfr/Tfh cells, which included changes of IL-2 and IL-21 in microenvironment, enhanced expression of Bcl-6 and c-MAF at mRNA level and inhibited expression of Blimp-1 at mRNA level on CD4+T cells as well as over-expression of PD-1 at mRNA level on Treg cells.

Objective:
To discuss the potential toxic target organ and the toxic effects and mechanisms of tris (2-chloroethyl) phosphate (TCEP) on SD rats.
Methods:
40 female SD rats weaning from milk for 21 days, weighted (50±2.3)g were selected as subjects and marked by the weight. They were randomly divided into 4 groups, namely control group, 50 (L), 100 (M) and 250 (H) mg·kg-1·d-1 dose of TCEP group. Each group has 10 rats, and administrated the corresponding dose of drug or vehicle by mouth, quaque die for 60 days. All rats were sacrificed after the last administration. The livers and kidneys were dyed by HE for pathological observation; and the blood samples were collected to analyze the biochemical index. H1-Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H-NMR)-based metabolomics methods coupling with histopathogy examination were used to investigate the toxic effects of TCEP.
Results:
Inflammatory cell infiltration and hepatic necrosis were observed in the liver of TCEP-treated rats. Inflammatory cells invaded and calcification/ossification foci were also found in renal of TCEP-treated rats and tumor hyperplasia were existed in renal tubule in H group. The level of HDL-C in the L, M and H group were separately (1.7±0.09) , (1.5±0.07) and (1.3±0.1) µmol/L, which were all significantly lower than that of control group ( (1.9±0.2) µmol/L) (
