Peroxiredoxins(Prxs) are a family of antioxidant protein that have been identified in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. As antioxidants, Prxs protein contains an active site cysteine that is sensitive to oxidation by H 2 O2, eliminate active oxygen that exist in normal tissues and cells, protect cells from oxidative damage induced by reactive oxygen species ( ROS). Prxs protein is a known free radical scavenger, and has been shown to play a role in several diseases. In this review, recent advances on the study of Prxs protein family and tumor related diseases are reviewed, which is expected to provide new ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of the related clinical diseases.

Objective To evaluate the treatment method and time for congenital dacryocystitis.Methods The data about the treat ment massage of Congenital dacryocystitis was analyzed.Results 117 eyes of congenital dacryocystitis in 76 patients were given therapy,of which 5 eyes(5%)were cured by dacryocystitis massage,13 eyes(11%)were cured by dacryosolen lavage,99 eyes were cured by dacryorhinocystotomy,with the cure rate of 85%.Conclusion Dacryorhinocystotomy was an effective and important method to treat congenital dacryocystitis.The age from 2 months to 6 months old are available for treatment of Congenital dacryocystitis.

Objective To observe the hemodynamic change of small artery in patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods We measured peak systolic velocity (PSV), end-diastolic velocity (EDV), pulse index (PI), resistance index (RI) of ocular artery (OA), central retinal artery (CRA), finger artery, dorsal pedis artery and interlobar artery of patients with early-stage type 2 diabetes. Results The decrease in PSV and EDV values occurred early in CRA of type 2 diabetics while RI and PI values increased. Conclusion The hemodynamic change of CRA occurs earliest among general small arteries of type 2 diabetic patients.

Objective:To investigate the third molar horizontal and vertical drift automatically after the second molar extraction.Methods: 26 patients,aged 11～18 years old, with the indications of second morlar extraction were divided into two groups:15 cases in experimental group with the extraction of the second molar and 11 in control group without the extraction. A cephalometric radiograph of each patient was traced on before and 9 months after treatment. Vertical and horizontal drift and mesio- angulation of the third molar were measured.Results:The third molar vertical mesio-movement (mm)in experimental and control groups was 7.08?2.04 and 2.09?0.47(P

To compare the advantages and the disadvantages of the teaching of problem-based learning(PBL) with lecture based learing(LBL) in Pathophysiology with the questionnaire.

In medical education,to cultivate the medical students with high comprehensive quality,we have carried out the teaching reform in Pathophysiology education.

Because TCM transdermal medicine delivery preparations are hot spots in domestic researches, the rational application of penetration enhancers in prescriptions and the evaluation methods become increasingly important. This article reviewed the recent application of natural penetration enhancers and synthetic penetration enhancers in the prescription design of TCM transdermal medicine delivery preparations, and analyzed the existing problems and development prospects.

AIMTo study the protective effect of sodium oxybate (SO) against focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats, and the relationship between the effects of SO and ?-aminobutyric acid (GABA). METHODSThe reversible middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO)model in rats was established to investigate the role of SO. The scores of neurological deficits was detected by Longa EZ method in MCAO rats. The extracellular levels of glutamate (Glu) and GABA in CSF were measured by high performance liquid chromatography-fluorometer (HPLC-FR) method, and the weight of cerebral infraction was detected. RESULTSThe scores of neurological deficits and the weight of cerebral infraction markedly decreased by SO while the ratio of GABA/Glu obviously increased administered SO in MCAO rats. CONCLUSIONSSO could prevent MCAO rats from ischemia-reperfusion injury, the protective effect is related to SO keeping dynamic balance of excition-inhibition, and persisting inhibition-depended effect.

The relationship of dose and effect in TCM formulae was an important subject in the TCM modernization research.Some characteristic properties of TCM dose-effect relationship were proposed in this paper: the dose-effect relationship of TCM had a specifi c regulation from the whole-view idea in traditional medical theories besides common properties,nonlinear character from the compatibility of medicine properties,and multi-effects varied with the different compatibility from the alternation of doses.The subjects of dose-effect relationship included single medicine,drug pair and formulae.The study on the dose-effect relationship of TCM might be helpful to the explanation of conception,connotation,ideas and methods of TCM,provide scientifi c supports and instructions for the TCM clinical practices,and provide research bases for the TCM innovation.

Aim To investigate the effects of Ang Ⅱ receptor antagonist irbesartan on the expressions of connective tissue growth factor(CTGF) and membrane-type 1 matrix metalloproteinase(MT1-MMP) in high glucose-cultured rat glomerular mesangial cells(GMCs).Methods High concentration glucose and irbesartan were used to stimulate the cultured rat GMCs in vitro.The mRNA and protein expressions of CTGF and MT1-MMP were detected with semi-quantitative RT-PCR and Western blot.The secreted collagen Ⅳ in the supernatants of the GMCs was detected by enzyme-linked immunoadsorbent assay(ELISA).Results Compared with control group,the expressions of CTGF were continuously increased in GMCs under high concentration glucose medium;otherwise the mRNA and protein levels of MT1-MMP in GMCs were decreased in a time-dependent manner at the same time.These changes were accompanied by increased secretion of collagen Ⅳ.Irbesartan could inhibit those changes induced by high glucose.Conclusions High glucosecould induce the expression of CTGF and inhibit the expression of MT1-MMP in GMCs.Irbesartan could inhibit the secretion of ECM in GMCs under high concentration glucose medium,partly by regulating the expressions of CTGF and MT1-MMP.
