Objective To explore the clinical significance of MDR1 gene expression inpatients with gastric cardia carcinoma.Methods Using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT PCR), the genes expression of MDR1 and MRP, in 4 6 cases of gastric cardia cancer was determined.Results Positive expression of MDR1 and MRP gene were 6:3% and 50% respectively, which was muchhigher than that in tissue adjacent to 1ilo cancer site. In 9 cases of pre-operative chemotherapy , the levels ofMDR 1, and MRP gene expression were higher higher that without chemotherapy (P

Objective: To evaluate the effect of RBa-I, an extract of Rosa bracteata Wend1, against withdrawa1 syndrome in morphine-dependent rats and to explore its mechanism. Methods: The mode1 rats of morphine dependent were established. The scores of withdrawa1 syndrome,?-EP level in hypotha1amus and pituitary body were observed to evaluate the effect of RBa-I in rats. Results: RBa-I can antagonize the urging withdrawa1 syndrome in morphine-dependent rats (ora1ly, 5 mg?kg -1 ), and the effect was inferior to chlonidine (oral1y, 0.2 mg?kg -1 ). It can a1so antagonize the natural withdrawal syndrome, decrease the tota1 scores of withdrawa1 syndrome and inhibit the decreasing of body weight. After a seven-day treatment course, the tota1 scores of withdrawa1 syndrome were decreased remarkab1y. The content of ?-EP in hypotha1amus and pituitary body were increased. Conclusion: RBa-I can antagonize the withdrawa1 syndrome of morphine-dependent rats and this may be related to the increase of ?-EP level in hypothalamus and pituitary body in rats.

Objective To observe inhibition rate of mouse mammary adenocarcinoma(EMT6) and inhibition effect on tumor angiogenesis of Panax notoginseng F.H. Chen and Cordyecps sinensis Sacc. powder. Methods BALB/C mice as bearing cancer animals with subcultured mouse-transplantable EMT6 cell train had accepted intervention treatment by Panax notoginseng F.H. Chen and Cordyceps sinensis Sacc. powder. In this way,inhibition rate of the mouse-transplanted EMT6 by the powder was recorded and the expression of microvessel density(MVD),vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2(TIMP-2) in the tumor tissue after paraffin imbedding and section were detected through immunohistochemistry technique. Results The tumor inhibition rates of two designed dose groups were separately 48.95% and 37.64%. MVD and VEGF expressions of tumor tissue in the two group were significantly suppressed while the TIMP-2 expression increased. Conclusions Panax notoginseng F.H.Chen and Cordyceps sinensis Sacc. powder can restrain the growth of EMT6,and the pathway of this function is likely related to inhibiting tumor angiogenesis.

Rosiglitazone is one of thiazolidinediones (TZD),an antidiabetic agent which improves insulin sensitivity,but the cardiovascular safety of the drug remains controversial.The new re-evaluation of the RECORD trial has suggested that rosiglitazone-containing drugs do not show an increased risk of heart attack compared to the standard type 2 diabetes medicines,such as mefformin and sulfonylurea.The post hoc analysis of the BARI 2D also indicates that rosiglitazone may not relate with the increased risk of major ischemic cardiovascular events.According to these new results,there is no clear evidence that rosiglitazone may increase cardiovascular risk.The U.S.Food and Drug Administration announced in July 2013 that it is requiring the removal of some prescribing and dispensing restrictions for rosiglitazone-containing diabetes medicines.

Objective To explore the application value of remote blood pressure monitoring and health guidance management model in community hypertension patients.Methods 200 hypertension patients were selected from community health service institution between June 2013 and June 2016, and averagely divided into two groups by random number table, 100 cases in each group.The control group was given routine guidance, and the study group was given the remote blood pressure monitoring and online health guidance.The two groups were compared in terms of hypertension knowledge rate and compliance rate, control rate of blood pressure, physical indicators before and after management, including systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), body mass index (BMI), serum creatinine (SCr), triglyceride (TG) and fasting blood glucose (GLU).Results The hypertension knowledge, treatment compliance rate and blood pressure control rate in the study group were 85%, 98%, 86%, and significantly higher than that of 68%, 82%, 57% (P<0.05) in the control group.Compared to the former management, the SBP, DBP, GLU and SCr of the two groups were significantly decreased, and the study group decreased more significantly (P<0.05).But there were no significant differences in BMI (P>0.05) between the two groups.Conclusion The remote blood pressure monitoring and online health guidance is useful for community hypertension patients.Hypertension knowledge awareness, medication compliance and blood pressure control rate are improved significantly, meanwhile, the patients physical examination indexes can be promoted.

Objective: To analyze the influencing factors in thrombin titration for the determination of anticoagulant activity of Whitmania Pigra Whitman. Methods: The white porcelain plates were used as the titration carriers instead of tubes in the titration ( called white porcelain method for short) . The effect of different carriers, interval time of titration and thrombin concentration on the results of anticoagulant activity test was studied. Results:Under the same conditions, the anticoagulant activity was more accurate and stable using white porcelain method. Using white porcelain method with 20 u·ml-1 or 10 u·ml-1 as the thrombin concentration and titrating 5μl each time, once every minute, the thrombin consumption volume was linear with the sample concentration within the range of 0. 125-0. 333 g·ml-1(r20 =0. 961 and r10 =0. 992), and the anticoagulant activity respectively was (33. 08 ± 2. 64) and (31. 24 ±1.32) u·g-1(RSD20 =8.0% and RSD10 =4.2%). As for a certain sample concentration (0.333 g·ml-1), the theoretical error of determination was not more than 10% and 5%. Conclusion:The improved white porcelain method is more suitable for determining anticoagulant activity of Whitmania Pigra Whitman with more stable results and accurate end point states than tube method. Under the conditions of 10 u·ml-1 thrombin concentration, titrating 5μl each time, once every minute, the linearity, accuracy and precision are all promising.
