2.Developments in the chemotherapy treatment for advanced colorectal cancer
China Oncology 1998;0(04):-
Metastatic colorectal cancer is a major cause of cancer-related mortality. Surgical resection of all known metastatic disease can be curative in selected patients. The majority of patients,however,require systemic chemotherapy as optimal palliative treatment for their disease. For years,effective treatment for advanced colorectal cancer was limited to fluorouracil. In the 1990s,two additional agents,irinotecan and oxaliplatin,were found to have activity against advanced colorectal cancer. Recently,new molecular targeted agents,bevacizumab and cetuximab,were for the first time demonstrated efficacy. Herein,we review recent developments in treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer and implication for optimal treatment in these patients.
3.Research on our hospital inventory management status quo of traditional Chinese medicine drugs and treatment method.
China Journal of Chinese Materia Medica 2014;39(6):1140-1142
Under the background of the new medical reform, a large variety of traditional Chinese medicine from complicated sources, Chinese traditional medicine of actor of true and false of the quality directly affect the drug safety and clinical efficacy, but also relate to the social and economic benefits of hospital. Along with the development of the modern management of medical institutions and drug circulation circulation system reform in our country, the hospital drug inventory, supply and management work is an important topic for the pharmaceutical trading. However, there is always contradiction, dispensary need to supple pharmacy, in order to satisfy the demands of hospital patients with normal diagnosis and treatment work. However, if the drug inventory is too much, not only increases the drug monitoring problem, at the same time, but also causes storage costs rise. Therefore, completing scientific and reasonable storage and management becomes urgent problems at present. Wherefore, our country administration of traditional Chinese medicine in 2007 promulgated the "Chinese traditional medicine yinpian management norms in hospital", aims to standardize management of Chinese traditional medicine quality and improve the safety of drugs. The author through looking up information and visiting survey, to understand the currently existing problems, and summarizes the literature inland and abroad in recent years Chinese medicine drug inventory management work experience, in view of status quo of Chinese medicine inventory management in China, put forward the solution. To guarantee TCM pharmacy management more standardized, more standard, to adapt to the new reform of Chinese traditional medicine industry, improve the management level of hospital, defend the hospital's reputation and the patient's interests.

Objective To evaluate the effect of puerarin on melanogenesis in melanocytes,and to explore its possible mechanisms.Methods Third-to fifth-passage melanocytes isolated from human foreskin were treated with different concentrations (1,5,10,20,40,80 and 160 μmol/L) of puerarin for 24 hours,with those receiving no treatment as the normal control group.Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay was performed to evaluate the proliferative activity of melanocytes,a sodium hydroxide solubilization method was used to measure melanin content,and reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) and Western blot analysis were performed to quantify the mRNA and protein expressions of microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF),tyrosinase (TYR) and tyrosinase-related protein-1 (TRP-1) respectively.Results There were no significant differences in the proliferative activity of melanocytes between the puerarin (1-40 μmol/L) groups and normal control group (P > 0.05),and 40 μmol/L was chosen as the concentration of puerarin for subsequent experiments.Compared with the normal control group,the 40-μmol/L puerarin group showed increased melanin content as well as mRNA and protein expressions of MITF,TYR and TRP-1 (all P < 0.05).Concretely speaking,the protein expressions of MITF,TYR and TRP-1 in the 40-μmol/L puerarin group were increased by 8.69%,10.28% and 10.58% compared with the normal control group respectively (all P < 0.05),and their mRNA expressions were 2.48,1.91 and 1.63 times higher in the 40-μmol/L puerarin group than in the normal control group respectively (all P < 0.05).Conclusion Puerarin can increase the mRNA and protein expressions of MITF,TYR and TRP-1,and promote melanogenesis in melanocytes.

AIM: To explore the molecular mechanism of Radix Ophioponis against vascular endothelial cell (VEC) apoptosis induced by LPS. METHODS: The apoptosis of human umbilical vascular endothelial cells(HUVEC) was induced by lipopolysaccharide(LPS). The influence of Radix Ophiopogonis on the expression of bcl-2 and intracellular Ca 2+ was detected by flow cytometry and laser confocal microscope. RESULTS: The serum containing Radix Ophiopogonis suppressed the increase in bcl-2 expression and overloading of Ca 2+ induced by LPS in HUVEC.CONCLUSION: The mechanism of Radix Ophiopogonis against HUVEC apotosis may be related with its regulatory effect on bcl-2 expression and remission of Ca 2+ overloading.

AIM: To investigate the amiloride-sensitive Na~+ channel current (Iamil) in primary cultured human bronchial epithelium cells of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients and the influence of interleukin 4 and interleukin 6. METHODS: Human bronchial epithelium cells were isolated and cultured from 18 patients undergone pueumonectomy in hospital. Interleukin 4 or interleukin 6 at concentration of 10 ?g/L was used to treat these cultured cells, and Iamil was measured by whole cell patch clamp techniques. RESULTS: There was no markedly difference among normal no-smoking group, normal smoking group and COPD group. Interleukin 4 down-regulated the Iamil in normal no-smoking group, normal smoking group and COPD group. The down-regulated percentages were 59.7%, 54.7% and 30.0%. Interleukin 4 down-regulated the Iamil in normal no-smoking group (44.8%) and normal smoking group (34.9%) but not in COPD group, and the current forms were not changed after IL-4 or IL-6 treatment. CONCLUSIONS: Interleukin 4 and interleukin 6 down-regulated the Iamil in primary cultured human bronchial epithelium cells. It may contribute to the hypersecretion of COPD, and the up-regulated interleukin 4 and interleukin 6 in COPD patients may cause them react weaker to the treatment of interleukin 4 and interleukin 6.

Objective:To explore the correlation of stress, coping style and the concentration of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate in umbilical blood between preterm birth and normal birth.Methods:46 with preterm birth and 42 normal birth controls were assessed with Life Event Scale (LES) and Defense Style Questionnaire (DSQ) at 28th-week of pregnancy. The concentrations of DHEA-s in umbilical blood were determined by ELISA for the two groups. Results:Of the scales of malignant life events (frequency: 1.24?0.74 vs 1.04?0.03; strength: 56.21?4.03 vs 44.35?1.06)、immature and middle type defense style scales (4.24?0.13 vs 3.55?0.11; 3.86?0.08 vs 3.64?0.06), and DHEA-s (0.72?0.02 vs 0.33?0.03) there were significant difference between preterm birth and normal birth controls (P

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics of adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD). Methods The clinical date of 14 ALD patients were analyzed retrospectively. Results The 14 ALD patients were boys,the symptoms occurred slowly from 1 to 13 years old. The clinical manifestations of all the ALD patients were mainly mental retardation and disturbances of movement of extremities,9 cases had visual disorders,6 cases had auditory disorders and 13 cases had dysarthria,5 cases had seizure and 6 cases had increased skin pigmentation. The level of plasma very long chain fatty acids (VLCFA) in 5 csaes were increased at some degree.The brain CT from 2 cases and MRI from 12 cases showed butterfly-like focus in periventricle areas in the white matter bilaterally. Lace-like high intensity lesions were observed in 3 cases. Conclusion The clinical features of ALD are progressive dysnoesia,limbs dyskinesia,hypropsia,hearing loss etc,dysfunction of adrenal cortex,the level of plasma VLCFA increased,and with characteristic changes of skull imageological.
