1.MiRNA and non-small cell lung cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2012;39(4):282-285
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNAs which involve in the regulation after gene transplantation.Researches show that miRNA is closely related to the development and progression of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).They caused a significantly change in NSCLC cells through downregulate tumor suppressor gene,or act as oncogene or work on some targets which is important in cell signal pathway,in the end it lead to oncogenesis,cell proliferation,cell apoptosis and resistance to chemotherapy or radiotherapy.Therefore,miRNA will be hopefully used in the diagnose and therapy of cancer.

BACKGROUND:In recent years, neural stem cell transplantation has become a research hotspot in the treatment of brain injuries, such as cerebral ischemia, but the mechanism has not been fully elucidated.OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of neural stem cell transplantation on neuronal apoptosis and differentiation and neurobehaviors in cerebral ischemia rats.METHODS:Ninety Sprague-Dawley rats with cerebral ischemia were randomized into model group, phosphate buffer solution (PBS) group and neural stem cell group (n=30 per group). Another 30 rats were selected as sham operation group with vascular exposure but with no occlusion under anesthesia. Thirty normal 30 rats acted as controls with no treatment. Thereafter, neurological deficit scores, cerebral infarction volume, the number of apoptotic nerve cells,BrdU/NeuN and BrdU/GFAP expression were detected at 3, 7, 14 days after modeling.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:On the 7th day and 14th day after modeling, the neurological deficit scores, cerebral infarct volume and the number of apoptotic nerve cells in the neural stem cell group were significantly lower than those in the model group and PBS group (P < 0.05), but there was no statistically significant difference between the model group and PBS group (P > 0.05). On the 3rd day, 7th day and 14th day after modeling, the neurological deficit scores and the number of apoptotic nerve cells in the control group and sham operation group were significantly lower than those in the model group, PBS group and neural stem cell group (P < 0.05). On the 3rd day after modeling, the BrdU/NeuN positive cell count in the model, PBS and neural stem cell groups showed no statistically significant differences (P > 0.05); on the 7th day and 14th day after modeling, the BrdU/NeuN positive cell count in the neural stem cell group was significantly higher than that in the model group and PBS group (P < 0.05), but the difference between the model group and PBS group was not statistically significant (P > 0.05). On the 3rd day, 7th day and 14th day after modeling, BrdU/GFAP positive cell count in the neural stem cell group was significantly lower than that in the model group and PBS group (P < 0.05),and the latter two groups had no statistically significant difference (P > 0.05). In summary, neural stem cell transplantation for cerebral ischemia contributes to the neuronal differentiation of endogenous neural stem cells in the subventricular zone of the lateral ventricles, reduce neuronal apoptosis, and ease ischemic damage to the rat neurological function.

ObjectiveTo study the fluoride level of preschool children influenced by fluoride toothpaste. MethodsAbout 200 children aged 3~6 years old were involved in the test. The children of test group were given fluoride toothpaste while the children of control group were given non-fluoride toothpaste. After two months, hair samples were gasified by high temperature and were tested with fluoride-specific electrode. Urinary fluoride concentration and 24h urinary fluoride excretion were also conducted by using fluoride-specific electrode.ResultsIt shows that the 24h urinary fluoride excretion and the fluoride concentration in hair and urine of children in control group were apparently lower than those of children in test group.ConclusionFluoride toothpastes used by preschool children may result in the change of fluoride level in their bodies under the stability of their daily habits and living cir cumstances. Age is likely to be one of the facts that can influence the fluoride ingestion level.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for clinical rational drug use. METHODS:The drug sales amount,DDDs, DDC and major pharmaceutical enterprises in 273 sample hospitals of Yangtze River basin in 2014 were statistically analyzed. RE-SULTS:The growth of consumption sum slowed down gradually. The anti-infective drugs,cardiovascular drugs and nervous sys-tem drugs occupied the medical mainstream market. Top 3 drugs in the list of consumption sum in consecutive 4 quarters were monosialotetrahexosylganglioside,thymic peptide and lansoprazole. Nearly half of top 15 drugs were auxiliary drugs;Chinese pat-ent medicines grew increasingly and appeared in the list. The sales enterprises were mainly domestic enterprises,which concentrat-ed in Sichuan,Chongqing,Jiangsu province,and other places. CONCLUSIONS:The structure of drug use in sample hospitals is basically consistent with the spectrum of disease in China. However,there is deviation between auxiliary drug use and international guide,and the rationality of clinical drug use needs to be improved.

With the advent of the cancer stem cell hypothesis,the field of cancer research has experienced a revolution in how we think of and approach cancer. The discovery of "tumor-initiating cell" has offered an explanation for several long-standing conundrums on why tumors behave the way they do to treatment. Despite the great amount of research that has been done in order to understand the molecular aspects of tumors,the prognosis of tumors remains dismal. The slow progress in extending the survival of patients with malignant tumors is very likely due to poor understanding of the cell of origin in these tumors.This review article discusses the progress in our understanding of tumor-initiating cell as the cell of origin in cancers. We review the different proposed mechanisms of how tumor-initiating cell may originate,the molecular mechanisms of cancer initiation and progression, and finally the clinical implications of this research.

Objective Via observing concentration changes of interleukin(IL)-1β, IL-6 and IL-18 in hippocampus of pilocarpine treated rats after intranasal delivery of transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1), to explore the possi-ble anti-epileptogenic and neuro-protective role of TGF-β1 in the epiletogenesis progression. Methods Three hours after pilocarpine induced status epilepticus, rats were treated with recombinant human TGF-β1 or the same volume of PBS by intranasal administration. Animals were executed, harvested at 24, 48, 72 h after SE individual-ly. Using the methods of the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and immunohistochemisty (IHC), the concentrations and distribution of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-18 were detected in hippocampus. Results TGF-β1 could re-duce the expression of IL-1β and IL-6 in the hippocampus of pilocarpine treated rats effectively (P<0.05 or P<0.01), however, TGF-β1 did not affect the expression of IL-18 significantly( P >0.05). Conclusion By the supplementation of intranasal TGF-β1, classical pro-inflammatory cytokine ( IL-1β, IL-6) are remarkably sup-pressed, TGF-β1 may exert antiepileptogenic and neuropretective effects.

Objective To summarize the clinical features and biological markers of critically ill children with pancreatic necrosis. Methods The clinical data of 5 ill children whose autopsy confirmed pancreatic necrosis in our hospital from 2003 to 2009 were collected and the pathological results were analyzed.Results Five cases appeared as acute onset and fever. Clinical manifestation of 2 cases included abdominal pain and 2 cases represented abdominal bulging,lots of flatulence and gastrointestinal bleeding. Four cases represented abnormal liver function and significant decrease of albumin,3 cases with increase of C-reactive protein. No case showed abnormal pancreas acoustic image of abdominal B-ultrasonography. Autopsy confirmed that 5 cases represented varying degrees necrosis of the pancreas, which complicated with the damage of adrenal gland,liver,lung,heart, spleen, kidney,intestine, thymus, mediastinal and mesenteric lymphnodes. All died in 36 hours after the children'conditions were changed. Two cases died of acute hemorrhagic necrosis of the pancreas,3 cases died of multiple organ failure based on pancreatic necrosis. Conclusion Pancreatic necrosis in critically ill children presents acute onset and short course,is prone to result in multiple organ damage or failure.
