They are named as 2-methyl-6-amino-9-(2-deoxy-?-D-ribofuranosyl)-purine (Ⅰ), 2′-deoxyadenosne (Ⅱ), 6-amino-9-?-D-ribofuranosyl-9H-punne (Ⅲ), uracill (Ⅳ), thymine (Ⅴ), thymidine (Ⅵ), 1-(2-deoxy-?-D-ribofuranosyl) uracil (Ⅶ). Conclusion The sponge C. australiensis is systemically separated, and then two kinds of nucleotidoids compound are extracted.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the feasibility of detecting the mutations of KRAS,EGFR in nonsmall-cell lung cancer and colorectal cancer patients with high resolution melting curve analysis. MethodsAt first,the mutations in KRAS exon 2 and EGFR exons 18 to 21 of 5 patients with non-small cell lung cancer and 5 patients with colorectal cancer were detected by high resolution melting curve analysis.Then the results were confirmed with direct sequencing. ResultsBy high resolution melting curve analysis,1 of 10 patients was found to carry EGFR 19 mutation who was harboring 2236-2250del mutation.By direct sequencing,consistent results of the patients with mutations orwithout mutations were got. Conclusion s The new high resolution melting curve analysis was more efficient,more convenient than direct sequencing.Moreover,it was a low-cost test,which was suitable for clinic test.

Objective To investigate the effects of antisense Smad2 oligodeoxynudeotides(ODN) on fibronetin(FN) and collagen Ⅳ(ColⅣ) secretion of rat mesangial cells cultured with high glucose, explore the action of Smad2 in the glomerulosclerosis and to find a new method to retard the progress of glomerular fibrosis. Methods 20-mer antisense, sense and random ODNs were designed and synthesized that were phosphorothioate modified to increase stability. The antisense ODN encompassed the ATG of the rat Smad2 gene. ODN was tranferred transiently into rat mesangial cells through liposome. Rat cells were treated with high glucose. mRNA and protein of Smad2 were detected by RT-PCR and cytochemistry. FN and ColⅣ were examined by ELISA. Results Antisense ODN significantly decreased mRNA and protein expression of Smad2 in rat mesangial cells treated with high glucose(P

Objective To investigate whether the effect of rabeprazole in treating gastroesophageal reflux disease is related to CYP2C19 gene polymorphisms.Methods 278 patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease confirmed by endoscopy and proton-pump inhibitor testing were enrolled in this study,including non erosive reflux disease (NERD) in 122 cases,the reflux esophagitis (RE) in 98 cases and Barrett esophagus in 58 cases.They were treated with rabeprazole for 8 weeks.GerdQ scores before and after the treatment were completed,endoscopy was performed again in patients with RE after treatment.The blood CYP2C19 genotyping was detected by matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrum(MALDI-TOF-MS).Results According to the genotype of CYP2C19,they were divided into extensive metabolizers,intermediate metabolizers and poor metabolizers,accounted for 39.57%,42.45% and 17.98%,respectively.There was no significant difference in GerdQ scores of three groups before treatment,and also had no significant difference after 8 weeks treatment,but in each subgroup GerdQ scores after treatment was decreased significantly than before treatment.The total effective rate of 98 patients with RE by endoscopy was 86.73%,but there was no significant difference in total effective rate of the three groups after treatment.Conclusion Rabeprazole is effective in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease.Moreover,rabeprazole is less affected by CYP2C19 genotype and therefore its curative effect is more stable.

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of electroacupuncture (EA) plus Tanbo-plucking the trigger points for scapulohumeral periarthritis (SP). Methods:A total of 80 patients with SP were randomized into an observation group and an EA group by the random number table, with 40 cases in each group. The EA group was treated with EA therapy, and the observation group was treated with EA therapy plus Tanbo-plucking the trigger points. After treatment, the visual analog scale (VAS) and Melle scores of the two groups were compared to evaluate the improvement of shoulder pain and functional activity, and meanwhile the clinical efficacy was observed. Results: After treatment, the total effective rate of the observation group was 95.0％ and the cure and markedly effective rate was 72.5％. The total effective rate of the EA group was 87.5％ and the cure and markedly effective rate was 42.5％. There was no significant difference in the total effective rate between the two groups (P>0.05). The cure and markedly effective rate of the observation group was higher than that of the EA group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). After treatment, the intra-group differences in VAS and Melle scores of both groups were statistically significant (bothP<0.001). The inter-group differences in the changes of the VAS and Melle scores after treatment were statistically significant (bothP<0.001). Conclusion: EA plus Tanbo-plucking the trigger points has a better curative effect than EA therapy alone in the treatment of SP.

ObjectiveTo observe the influence of iodine on mRNA expression of iodide transporter (NIS),insulin-like growth factor Ⅰ (IGF- Ⅰ ) and transforming growth factor beta(TGF-β) in thyroid and mammary glands of lactating rats and to explore the role of NIS,IGF- Ⅰ and TGF-β mRNA in iodine uptake in thyroid and mammary glands of lactating rats.MethodsOne hundred and one Wistar rats(80 female and 21 male),weighting 8 - 100 g were selected.These female rats were randomly divided into five groups according to their body weight:control group(NI,normal feed,drank deionized water containing iodine 50 μg/L) ; low iodine group 1 and 2(LI-1,LI-2,low iodine feed,drank deionized water containing iodine 0 and 5 μg/L,respectively); high iodine group 1 and 2(HI-1,HI-2,normal feed,drank deionized water containing iodine 3000 and 10 000 μg/L,respectively),16 rats in each group.After feeding for 3 months,the female and male rates were mated 3:1.The female rats in each group were sacrificed at the fifth and tenth day after postpartum.Thyroid and mammary glands were taken.The mRNA levels of NIS,IGF- Ⅰ and TGF-β in thyroid and mammary glands of lactating rats were determined by real time quantitative PCR.ResultsThe fifth days after postartum,NIS,IGF- Ⅰ and TGF-β mRNA expression levels of thyroid and lactating mammary glands were different between groups,and the differences were statistically significant ( NIS:F =631.46,64.91,all P ＜ 0.01 ; IGF- Ⅰ:F =11.45,6.56,all P ＜ 0.01 ; TGF-β:F =291.83,304.53,all P ＜ 0.01).Compared with control group [NIS:0.0066 ± 0.0023, (0.1481 ± 0.0711 ) × 10-2; IGF- Ⅰ:0.0419 ± 0.0062,0.0542 ± 0.0044; TGF-β:0.1416 ± 0.0277,0.1670 ± 0.0499],regardless of thyroid or mammary gland,the NIS,IGF- Ⅰ and TGF-β mRNA expression of LI-1 [NIS:0.0447 ± 0.0110,(0.3030 ± 0.1831) × 10-2;IGF- Ⅰ:0.0662 ± 0.0078,0.0902 ± 0.008; IGF- Ⅰ:0.5514 ± 0.0508,0.6942 ± 0.0367],LI-2[NIS:0.0317 ±0.0081,(0.3017 ± 0.1601) × 10-2; IGF-I:0.0645 ± 0.0054,0.0894 ± 0.0093; TGF-β:0.5292 ± 0.0332,0.6704 ± 0.0277 ] was significantly increased (all P ＜ 0.01 ); the NIS mRNA expression of HI-1 [0.0043 ± 0.0011,(0.1233 ± 0.0954) × 10-2],HI-2[0.0037 ± 0.0017,(0.1058 ± 0.0854) × 10-2] was decreased(all P ＜ 0.05),while the expression of IGF-Ⅰ mRNA [0.0521 ± 0.0910,0.0715 ± 0.0026; 0.0516 ± 0.0078,0.0697 ± 0.0038] and TGF-β mRNA [0.2087 ± 0.0425,0.2361 ± 0.0425; 0.1971 ± 0.0237,0.2257 ± 0.0752 ] was increased (all P ＜ 0.05 ).The tenth days after postpartum,the mRNA expression levels of NIS,IGF- Ⅰ and TGF-β of thyroid and lactating mammary gland in rats were different between groups,and the differences were statistically significant (NIS:F =103.55,116.32,all P ＜ 0.01; IGF-Ⅰ:F =67.67,11.98,all P ＜ 0.01; TGF-β:F =74.30,381.30,all P ＜0.01 ).Compared with the control group[NIS:0.0069 ± 0.0011,(0.1337 ± 0.0599) × 10-2; IGF-Ⅰ:0.0390 ±0.0071,0.0534 ± 0.0056; TGF-β:0.1351 ± 0.0336,0.1534 ± 0.0320],the mRNA expression levels of NIS,IGF- Ⅰ and TGF-β of LI-1 [ NIS:0.0432 ± 0.0165,(0.2962 ± 0.0985 ) × 10-2; IGF- Ⅰ:0.0643 ± 0.0088,0.0873 ± 0.0055 ; TGF-β:0.5042 ± 0.0912,0.6408 ± 0.0420],LI-2[NIS:0.0287 ± 0.0111,(0.2873 ± 0.0862) × 10-2; IGF- Ⅰ:0.0621 ± 0.0094,0.0862 ± 0.0038; TGF-β:0.4893 ± 0.0504,0.6372 ± 0.0389] were significantly increased(all P ＜ 0.01 ); the NIS mRNA levels of HI-1 [ 0.0042 ± 0.0029,(0.1006 ± 0.0909) × 10-2],HI-2[0.0035 ± 0.0020,(0.0890 ± 0.0119) × 10-2] were decreased(all P＜ 0.05),while the expression of IGF-Ⅰ mRNA[0.0516 ± 0.0078,0.0668 ± 0.0071; 0.0508 ± 0.0089,0.0621 ± 0.0064] and TGF-β mRNA[0.2007 ± 0.0546,0.2175 ± 0.0370;0.1959 ± 0.0393,0.2097 ± 0.0425] were increased(all P ＜ 0.05 ).In thyroid and mammary glands,the comparisons of NIS,IGF,TGF-β mRNA expression of the fifth and tenth day after postartum,between each group were not statistically significant(all P ＜ 0.05).ConclusionsThere are regulatory mechanisms of thyroid and mammary glands of lactating rats in response to low or high iodine conditions.In low iodine,the expressions of NIS,IGF- Ⅰ and TGF-β mRNA in thyroid and mammary glands increase and iodide uptake ability is enhanced to meet the body needs.In high iodine,the expression of NIS mRNA decreases in thyroid and mammary glands.Due to the reduced ability of iodine uptake,iodine intake is reduced,thereby reducing the hazards of high iodine in filial rats.
