1.Treatment of neuroblastoma
International Journal of Pediatrics 2014;41(6):621-624
Neuroblastoma (NB)is a common malignant solid tumor in childhood,which has various clinical manifestations.It is difficult to diagnose and to prone to early metastasis.It is one of the main diseases causing death in childhood.The treatment of children with high-risk NB is still very challenging.At present,the treatments of NB mainly concentrated in the surgery,chemotherapy,radiation therapy and transplantation technology,etc.In recent years,more studies focus on targeted therapy and molecular biology (genetics) treatment.Targeted therapy is targeted to different specific loci of tumor,so as to kill tumor cells and reduce the impact on the normal tissue,which supplies more safe and effective treatments for children with NB.
2.A SEM STUDY OF STRUCTURE IN THE RABBIT COCHLEAE
Acta Anatomica Sinica 1955;0(03):-
Five inner ears were removed from five rabbits under aneasthesia. The hard, thick bones of outer and middle ears were trimmed off, and the auditory ossicles were taken away. The cochleae were fixed with 2% glutaraldehyde in phosphate buffer for eight hours, then they were decalcified in 10% EDTA-2Na solution for ten days, and the softened shells of the cochleae were stripped off, and post-fixed in 1% OsO_4 for an hour, dried at critical point, coated with gold, and observed under SEM.The rabbit cochlea shows two and a half turns, the modiolus is about 3.5mm high, and the organ of Corti lies on the basilar membrane of the spiral lamina. The outer hair cells usually form three parallel rows on the middle and basal turns but occasionally four rows on the top half turn. The inner hair cells form only a single row. Every bunch of the outer hairs consists of about 93-114 stereocilia which together show a "W" shape. Every bunch of inner hairs has about 50 cilia which together show an arch shape. The cilia on the top turn are longer than those on the base. The length and width of the inner and outer hair cells and four other kinds of cells were measured according to photos, and the numbers of these kinds of cells were estimated.Other three cochleae fixed at the time of 1, 2 or 4 hours after death were also observed. In the cochlea fixed four hours after death, the majority of the auditory hairs were found fallen down, which means the fixation of cochlea should be carried out within less than four hours after death.Some of the structural similarities and differences of cochleae among rabbit,human being and guinea pig were also compared in this paper.

Parenteral & Enteral Nutrition 1997;0(04):-
Objectives: To investigate the effects of the extract mixture of alfalfa and perilla on lowering serum lipid, protecting liver and aortic wall in rats. Methods: Sixty SD rats were divided into six groups and were fed different diet. After seven or fourteen days, the rats were put to death and measured for serum lipids, cholesterol content of liver and aortic wall, and pathological change of the tissue. Results: There was a significant increase of serum TC, LDL-C, cholesterol content of liver and aortic wall in the high-fat fed rats. Under light microscope, there were lipid droplets and cholesterol crystal in liver of group high-fat. Compared with the group high-fat, the rats had a significant decrease of those measurements in serum or in tissue in the alfalfa and perilla group. Conclusions: The extract mixture of alfalfa and perilla could prevent the increase of serum TC, LDL-C, cholesterol content of liver and aortic wall in high-fat fed rats, and also prevent the fatty infiltration and cholesterol deposit of liver.

5.Progress in pharmaceutical treatment for adrenocotical carcinoma
Chinese Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism 2011;27(1):91-94
Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare disease with poor prognosis.Patients usually present with signs of steroid hormone excess (e.g.Cushing's syndrome, Conn's syndrome, virilization) or an abdominal mass.In functional cases, Cushing's syndrome is the most frequent presentation.Mitotane is still the most important single drug for ACC treatment, and it plays a role in adjuvant therapy postoperatively as well as in advanced disease.In advanced ACC, a combination of mitotane with etoposide, doxorubicin, cisplatin or streptozotocin with mitotane may be used.Targeted therapies, such as insulin-like growth factor Ⅰ (IGF- Ⅰ)receptor inhibitor and multiple kinase inhibitors like sunitinib and sorafenib hold great promises.
6.Vildagliptin treatment for type 2 diabetic patients in clinical practice
Chinese Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism 2011;27(10):873-876
Vildagliptin is a potent and specific inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase 4,which has been implicated to enhance and prolong the physiological actions of incretion hormones including glucagon-like peptide-1 and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide.Vildagliptin is an orally administered drug and has been licensed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.Vildagliptin monotherapy or in combination with other drugs can effectively lower glycosylated haemoglobin levels to a great extent.In addition,vildagliptin acts in a glucose-dependent manner,explaining its low risk of hypoglycemia.This drug has been proved well tolerated with few gastrointestinal side effects or oedema.Therefore vildagliptin is a promising new option for type 2 diabetic patients,and these patients would achieve better glycemic control and fewer complications in the long run.
