Hypoxic microenvironment is a typical characteristic of solid tumors and is considered an independent risk factor in tu-mor progression and poor prognosis. Hypoxic microenvironment is a critical part of cancer stem cell (CSC) niche and plays an impor-tant role in the evolution of cancer stem cells in tumors and in apoptosis resistance. As a key factor in the tumor's adaption to hypoxic microenvironment, hypoxia inducible factors (HIFs) can induce biological behavioral changes in CSCs that can accelerate tumor malig-nant transformation. Such behavioral changes include anti-apoptosis, enhancement of drug-resistance gene expression, and tumor inva-sion and metastasis. HIFs are also among the main factors affecting the capacity of CSCs to maintain their biological characteristics. In this review, the authors focus on recent advances in our understanding of the role that HIFs play in maintaining the biological character-istics of CSCs.

Osteoarthritis(OA) is a chronic progressive disease in the elderly, there are still no effective therapy for this disease. The objective of this article was to review progress in the clinical studies and therapies on the disease, especially NSAID therapy and total knee replacement.

Objective Effective intervention on the setbacks and safety loopholes of clinical medication, in an effort to explore, establish and improve the ADR watchfulness system in the hospital step by step. MethodsCollection and compilation of ADRs and drug compatibility cases found in 2010 in the hospital. Intervention on drugs of safety risk exposure or medication factors by means of the ADR prewarning mechanism, medical rounds by hospital's directors regarding drug issues, communication between pharmacists and clinicians, ADR monitoring leadership team, and pharmaceutical affairs council. Results 143 cases of ADR were interfered with among all the 393 ADR cases reported by clinical departments in 2010, accounting for 36.4％ of all the reported cases. ConclusionHospitals need to pay more attention to the monitoring, analyzing and evaluation of ADRs, and take efficient intervention means to make drug use more rational and ensure safe medication for the people.

OBJECTIVE:To establish the ultraviolet visible spectrophotometry(UV-VIS)for the determination of Fe content in iron dextran preparations.METHODS:Under the acidic condition,Fe~(3+)was dissociated from iron dextran solution by heating,then Fe~(3+)was deoxidized into Fe~(2+)by hydroxylamine hydrochloride,and red Fe~(2+)-orthophenanthroline complex was formed through combination with o-phenanthroline.The content of the Fe~(2+)-orthophenanthroline complex was determined by UV-VIS at a wavelength of 510 nm.RESULTS:The linear range of Fe~(2+)was 0.5～4.0?g?mL~(-1)(r=0.999 9). The average recoveries of two preparations(tablets and injection)of iron dextran were 99.8%(RSD=0.52%)and 99.7% (RSD=0.44%),respectively.CONCLUSION:The UV-VIS method is simple,accurate in results and applicable for the determination of iron dextran preparations.

Purpose:To improve the diagnostic accuracy of gastric submucosal tumor whose endoscopy was negative. Methods:Six cases of gastric submucosal tumor with “negative” results of endoscopy were analyzed. Results:Before operation 3 were recieved by medicinal management, 5 were diagnosed as malignant tumor by CT, 2 were shown to be tumor by ultrasound. There were 3 gastric lymphoma, 1 gastric adenocarcinoma, 1 gastric Schwannoma and 1 gastric leiomyosarcoma confirmed by postoperational pathologic diagnosis. Conclusions:If suspicion remains in endoscopy diagnosis, procedure should involve careful physical examination, CT, B US, GI and so on to improve the diagnostic accuracy. [

Objective To investigate the clinical distribution of Acinetobacter Baumann in our hospital and its drug resistance,provide a reference for clinical medical thereby.Methods A retrospectively analysis for 406 Acinetobacter baumannii detected in our hospital from January 2010 to January 2012 was made,the clinical distribution was observed,and the resistance rates of several commonly used antimicrobial agents was calculated.Results Acinetobacter baumannii infections was mainly detected in respiratory medicine and intensive care unit,the detection rate were 27.3％ and 19.0％,the primarily infection site was the respiratory system,Acinetobacter baumannii was detected mainly from sputum specimens and the detection rate was 56.2％,the resistance rate of imipenem,meropenem and cefoperazone sulbactam was relatively low,which were 8.6％,10.6％ and 17.0％.Conclusion Acinetobacter baumannii is an important cause of nosocomial infections and prone to multidrug-resistant pathogens,it is a serious threat to patients,we must make a strict selection of appropriate antibiotic therapy based on susceptibility to reduce nosocomial transmission of Acinetobacter baumannii.

Objective] Summarizing the diagnosis and treatment about the tumor-related disease from “Synopsis of Prescriptions of the Golden Chamber”, thus to better use classic in clinic. [Method] Sort out the book that involves tumor-related diseases pathogenesis, therapeutic treatment and syndrome differentiation treatment, combine with each of the clinical words, analyze and summarize all the clinical experience of physicians. [Results]The book is not equipped with tumor article, many cancer-related clinical manifestations of the disease description can be seen in each chapter, although not forming a system, its pulse and symptoms are involved in different parts of the tumors. And the symptoms of lung cancer, stomach cancer, and gynecological tumors also have been mentioned.[Conclusion] Visible in the book, the etiology and pathogenesis of tumor related diseases have a certain understanding. In the aspect of treatment, pay attention to combining disease syndrome differentiation, treatment and syndrome differentiation. Then concluding all the physicians clinical experience we can see that “Synopsis of Prescriptions of the Golden Chamber”for the treatment of tumors has great significance. And classic of traditional Chinese medicine for modern TCM clinical still have important reference value and guiding significance.

As internal protein elements , inteins are self-excised from their host protein and catalyze ligation of exteins with a peptide bond .They are widely found in all the three domains of the biological kingdom , and in viral proteins .Intein-mediated protein splicing is a posttranslational autocatalytic process that does not require auxiliary enzymes or cofactors . Protein splicing involves four intramolecular reactions and a small number of key catalytic residues in the intein and exteins . The development of expressed protein ligation ( EPL ) and protein trans-splicing ( PTS ) is assisted by inteins and protein splicing.This review introduces the biosynthesis of backbone-cyclized peptides libraries , and describes the applications of cyclic polypeptides and their prospective applications in the future .

Objective:To investigate the effects of various degrees of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep deprivation (RSD) and sleep recovery on cognitive function (learning and memory) and expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the rat hippocampus. Methods: Male SD rats were divided into 8 groups (n=12): blank control group (with normal sleep), environmental control, RSD 1 d, RSD 3 d, RSD 5 d, RSD 7 d, recover sleep 6 h after 7 d RSD (RS 6 h), and recover sleep 12 h after 7 d RSD (RS 12 h). The modified multiple platform method (MMPM) was used to establish sleep deprivation model in rats. The cognitive functions of rats were tested by Y-type maze. The hippocampal BDNF mRNA and protein levels were detected by real-time PCR and immunohistochemical method. Results: The failure reaction times of all RSD groups and the 2 RS groups were significantly more than those in control group and environmental control group (P

Cohesion is a degree that reflects the mutual attractions among the members in a group and pays attention to the status of members.It is association and distillation of all members'will and behavior extension in a group.The intensity of the group cohesion is the important symbol whether a group is competitive or not,and it plays an important role in the survival and the development of a group.This paper starts with the group cohesions of teachers in higher institutions and analyses the factors that affect the group cohesion in higher institution,On this basis,the paper puts forward the tactics in improving the group cohesion of higher institution.
