0.05).Using Hamilton depression (HAMD) and Hamilton anxiety (HAMA) rating scales, or using HAMD, HAMA and social disability screening schedule (SDSS) to determine the prognosis groups, the change of platelet 5-HT content had significant difference in the group with good prognosis (P

A series of novel sorafenib analogues were designed and synthesized. The cytotoxic activities of these compounds were tested in four tumor cell lines. Some of the compounds showed potent antiproliferative activity against the tested cell lines with IC50 = 4-20 micromol x L(-1). Some compounds demonstrated competitive antiproliferative activities to sorafenib against tested cancer cell lines. Among them, compound 7c demonstrated significant inhibitory activities on ACHN, HCT116 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines with IC50 values of 9.01, 4.97, 6.61 micromol x L(-1), respectively.

To investigate the genetic diversity among wild Dipsacus asperoides in China, 66 germplasmic resources of D. asperoides were analyzed by Start Codon Targeted Polymorphism (SCoT) molecular markers. Genetic distance was calculated by TREECONW software and the systematic diagram of genetic relationship was clustered by UPGMA method. The results showed that the totals of 181 bands were detected using 20 primers , among which 109 were polymorphic bands. The average percentage of polymorphic bands was 60.13%. Genetic distance changed from 0.030 6 to 0.181 4. The clustering results showed that there was no significant correlation between the classification of the wild D. asperoides and their geographical origin. The relatively high genetic diversity of D. asperoides provides the basis for breeding new varieties.

A strain of P. Aeruginosa,which was seperated from clinical environment,shows a special characteristic. It keeps normal short rod shape when cultured at 37℃, however,it forms filament without pyocyanin producing when cultured at 25℃ overnight. The filaments will divide and form short rods, simultaneously, produce pyocyanin when culture time is prolonged to over 72h or culture temperature is raised to 37℃. The preliminary study indicates that this phenomenin has nothing to do with nutritive conditions and could the inbluenced by inoculating density and irradiating with ultraviolet rays The absence of pyocyanin was not the cause of filamentous formation by the test results.

Curcumin has been reported to possess antitumor activity with low toxicity. However, the clinical application of curcumin has been significantly limited by its instability and poor metabolic property. In order to overcome these limitations and discover novel small molecules with potential antitumor activity, 29 curcumin mimics were synthesized, which were confirmed by 1H NMR and HR-MS, and their cytotoxic property was evaluated against five human cancer cell lines in vitro. Compounds 16, 18 and 19 exhibited good cytotoxic property, their IC50 value were even below 5 micromol x L(-1) to some cancer cell lines, 5-9 times better than curcumin.

Objective To discuss the clinical application and efficacy of digitization prototyping titanium meshes in the repairing of earthquake-induced skull defect. Methods The clinical data of 66patients with skull defect caused by earthquake were analyzed. These patients were divided into group A (treated with traditional handwork shaping titanium meshes, n=1S) and group B (treated with digitization prototyping titanium meshes, n=51). The efficacy and complications were compared.Results Compared to group A, group B had a shorter operation time, a shorter recovery time, a lower postoperative incidence rate of subcutaneous hematocele, hydrops and infection (P＜0.05). The digitization prototyping titanium meshes were significantly superior to handwork shaping titanium meshes (P＜0.05). And patients with skull defect repaired at early stage had a higher recovery rate of neurological function than those at advanced stage (P＜0.05). Conclusion Using digitization prototyping titanium meshes to repair the skull defect can enjoy anatomical reduction, shortened operation time, and fewer postoperative complications. In addition, an early repair in earthquake-induced skull defect can not onlydisburden patients' mind, but also prevent or even reverse secondary brain damage of skull defect,therefore, the patients' neurological function can be improved and their lives can be better.
