This is a review of recent progress in the study on environment sensitive hydrogel based on cyclodextrin and their most recent and relevant applications in the intelligent drug delivery systems. Based on relevant literatures, the development of environment sensitive hydrogel responsive to physical, chemical and biochemical stimuli was introduced, involving their categorization, design principles, mechanism of action and potential application. Various new types of intelligent drug delivery system, which responds to various triggers, could be constructed by using the cyclodextrin-based environment sensitive hydrogel. They made it possible to control the drug release freely. Although these hydrogels are still at their research stage, they have attracted considerable interest in the intelligent drug delivery system.

Acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by non-cardiogenic,acute,progressive and hypoxic respiratory insufficiency or respiratory failure mediated by various internal and external stimuli.The pathogeny of lung injury is varied,pathogenesis is complicated,and it is not clear.Related pathogeny and pathogensis of lung injury is reviewed as follows.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the safety and immunological effects of Measles-mumps-rubella(MMR)attenuated live at-tenuated vaccine in children. METHODS:300 children aged 8-12 months receiving inoculation were selected from Changsha Hospi-tal for Maternal and Child Health Care during Jan. 2015-Apr. 2016 to observe safety and immunological effects. Those children were divided into MMR group,measles vaccine group,mumps vaccine group and rubella vaccine group according to vaccine type, with 75 cases in each group. The occurrence of ADR in 72 h were compared among 4 groups after inoculation;venous blood of chil-dren was collected before vaccination and 5 months after vaccination,and the antibody positive test was carried out by micro coagu-lation inhibition (HI) test;HI antibody titer was recorded after immunization,and positive rate and genometric meantiter(GMT) were calculated. RESULTS:The incidence of ADR in 4 groups were 9.33%,8.00%,8.00% and 10.67%,respectively. No local ADR was found in 4 groups;among systemic ADR,the incidence of fever was higher than that of other clinical manifestations,be-ing 4.00%,4.00%,4.00% and 5.33%;there was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR among 4 groups(P>0.05). Measles,mumps and rubella antibody positive rates of MMR group were 100%,92.00% and 100%,respectively;antibody posi-tive rates of measles vaccine group,mumps vaccine group and rubella vaccine group were 100%,85.33% and 100%,respective-ly;there was no statistical significance in same antibody positive rate among 4 groups(P>0.05). GMT of measles in MMR group and measles vaccine group were 1∶41 and 1∶27,that of mumps in MMR group and mumps vaccine group were 1∶6.3 and 1∶6.2, there was no statistical significance (P>0.05);GMT of rubella in MMR group and rubella vaccine group were 1∶320 and 1∶849, with statistical significance (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Compared to traditional single vaccine,MMR dose not increase the inci-dence of ADR and not influence positive rate,but GMT of rubella increases significantly,to which should be paid attention.

Anticancer drugs resistance is often ascribed to gene mutation,amplification or epigenetic changes that affect the uptake,metabolism or export of drugs at the cell level.Tumor physical microenvironment not only influences the drug distribution but also causes difference in cell proliferation rate and hypoxia or acidosis due to its heterogeneity,which could affect the tumor drug resistance.This review discusses the relationship between cancer physical microenvironment and drug resistance and the strategies for enhancement of the chemotherapy sensitivity through modification of the tumor physical microenvironments,as well as foreground of the research.

Portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT) influence the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma.The development of PVTT is a multi-factor,multi-part process.According to anatomic features of the portal vein in the liver and tumor thrombus of HCC developing modes,a uniform tumor thrombus types system (typesⅠ -Ⅳ) is recommended.Multi-modal therapy based on surgery,interventional therapy and radiotherapy can improve the curative effect enormously.

Objective To observe the selective regulation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR) on fatty acid binding protein-4 (FABP4) in human syncytiotrophoblasts.Methods Cultivate normal human syncytiotrophoblast cells,and put in the specific antagonists and agonists of PPAR each subtypes receptors,then observe the different expression of FABP4 mRNA and protein.Results Pretreated the human syncytiotrophoblast cells with the agonists (GW7647,GW0742) and antagonists (GW6471,GSK0660) of PPARα and PPARβ receptors,the expression of the FABP4 was not significantly change (P＞0.05).However pretreated with PPARγ agonists (rosiglitazone,1 × 10-9,1 × 10-8,1 × 10-7 and 1 × 10-6 mol/L),the expression of FABP4 mRNA and protein could be dose dependent-promoted significantly (mRNA:1.27 ±0.12,1.45 ±0.14,1.57±0.14,1.72 ±0.12,protein:1.10 ±0.08,1.37 ±0.09,1.60 ±0.13,1.79 ± 0.14 ; P ＜ 0.05),furthermore,the promotion can be dose dependent-reversed by specific antagonists GW9662 (mRNA:0.92 ± 0.06,0.77 ± 0.06,0.64 ± 0.05,0.55 ± 0.05,protein:0.91 ±0.03,0.78 ±0.06,0.70±0.07,0.55 ±0.06; P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions In normal human syncytiotrophoblast cells,FABP4 is a target factor of PPARγ.PPARγ regulated the expression of FABP4 mRNA and protein selectively.And the regulation will not be influenced by the other two PPAR subtypes.

Objective　To study the visual electrophyological changes in　patients with pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome(PIH).Methods　The visual evoked potentials (VEP) and electroretinogram (ERG) of 28 patients with PIH in 56 eyes were recorded.Results　The patients with PIH had pathologic visual electrophysiologic abnormalities. The VEP N75 peak latency significantly increased(P<0.05), and the ERG b wave latency in patients with PIH showed remarkable difference(P<0.05).Conclusion　Visual electrophysiological examination may be valuable in early diagnosis of retinal disfunction in patients with PIH.

PNAS-4 is a novel pro-apoptosis gene identified latetly. In recent years, there has been a large number of research reports on the basic studies about PNAS-4 in cancer gene therapy and gene therapy of PNAS-4 alone or combined with chemotherapy or radiotherapy manifested a good application prospect, but its molecular mechanisms to promote apoptosis is not clear yet. In this paper, recent research about PNAS-4 in cancer gene therapy is briefly reviewed, and recent hypotheses on its molecular mechanisms to promote apoptosis are especially elucidated. Based on its newly identified characteristics of structural domain, we made a point that PNAS-4 might regulate functions of some target protein related to apoptosis by deSumoylation as a new deSumoylating isopeptidase, and consequently promote apoptosis.
