Biliary atresia(BA) is a destructive inflammatory obliterative cholangiopathy of neonates affecting both intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts.BA is more common in east Asia.Genetic susceptibility,viral infections,and immune dysregulation may be related to BA,but immune dysregulation may play a key hole in the pathogenesis of BA.A current view of the pathogenesis of BA is that it may involve both a primary perinatal hepatobiliary viral infection and a secondary generation of an autoimmune-mediated bile duct epithelial injury.The etiology of BA is unknown,but there is evidence for the involvement of immunologic dysregulation mechanisms,which will be discussed in this review.

Anorexia of aging is one of the common clinical geriatric syndrome in clinic, characterized by the persistent and significant decreasing of appetite and/or by reducing a food intake in the elderly, which can cause various adverse consequences and increase the morbidity and mortality.However, clinicians have insufficient understanding of anorexia in the elderly, and often regard the anorexia of aging as the normal phenomenon of aging and might ignore it.This article reviews the domestic and foreign relevant literatures on anorexia of aging.

The colorimetric method has been well developed to detect the sensitivity of most antiproliferative drugs with the advantages of objectivity and accuracy. Many parameters including the dosage and the absorbance of crystalline violet, the extraction time of the solvent, plate effect and marginal effect were investigated, then the optimized method was applied further to measure the biological activity during the refolding of recombinant human IFN-? inclusion bodies.

Objective To develop a rapid method based on ARMS, named four primers allele-specific PCR(4p-AS PCR), to detect the most common non-deletional ?-thalassemia mutation Hb Constant Spring(Hb CS) by PCR technique. Methods The 4p-ASPCR was used to detect the Hb CS mutation of ?-thalassemia in 38 DNA samples of Hb H disease patients and using PCR-RE and DNA sequencing to confirm the results. Results Among the 38 Hb H disease patients 15 cases was revealed to carry Hb CS, 16 cases were deletional Hb H, and 7 cases need to be defined.Conclusion A simple, rapid and reliable method, named 4P-ASPCR, to detect Hb CS mutation have been developed. It is also may be useful in screen other point mutations such as Hb Quong Sze.

Objective To elucidate the functional changes of E-cadherin (ECD) and ?-Catenin in the process of invasion and metastasis in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Methods The expressions were investigated in 41 RCC by immunohistochemical staining of SP methods. Results Decreased expression of ECD and ?-Catenin correlate with the progression and higher clinical stage and poorer outcomes (P

Objective:Tumor common antigen of an extract of plant and applying in early stage diagnosis for tumor were studied.Methods:Tumor cells and lymphocytes proliferate responses were determined by 3H-TdR intervening.Fresh tumor tissue from human transplant to mice,the survival rate of transplanted tumor was observed.DNA content of tumor cells was measured by flowcytometery.The chemical nature was analyzed by chromatography and measured by ultraviolet-spectrometer.Results:The extract of plant markedly stimulated the lymphocytes from tumor patients and atypical hyperplasia patient to proliferate,but failed to health persons(P

Objective To investigate the effect of ganoderic acid A( GA-A) on apoptosis, invasion and KDR expression of human U251 cells.Methods Ganoderic acid A( GA-A) was prepared, human U251 cells were treated with 0.1, and 0.5 mmol/L GA-A, and the experiment was divided into blank control, low concentration and high concentration group.The expressions of KDR mRNA and KDR protein was assayed by RT-PCR and Western blot.The effect of GA-A on the proliferation and invasion capability of U251 cells was determined by CCK-8 and transwell assay in vitro, respectively.Flow cytometry was used to detect the influence of GA-A on the cell cycle and apoptosis of U251 cells, and TUNEL staining was detected the cell apoptosis too.Results Compared with the control group, KDR mRNA and protein expression of high concentration and low concentration group were significantly decreased(P <0.05), GA-A can significantly reduce the cell growth rate, reduce the proportion of cells in G1 phase and increase the proportion of S phase and G2 /M phase,cells apoptosis was significantly increased in the high concentration and low concentration group ( P <0.01), and cells proliferation and invasion was significantly decreased (P <0.05).Compared with low concentration group, the high concentration group induce cell apoptosis and inhibit the expression of KDR more significant (P <0.05). Conclusions Ganoderma acid A can induce apoptosis in U251 cells, inhibit proliferation and invasion, and can inhibit the expression of KDR mRNA and protein, which may be one of the mechanisms of anti-tumor.

To meet the needs of serving the general strategy,the central work and hospital development,the CCP committee of Beijing Municipal Administration of Hospitals has innovated and improved the leadership of the CCP building,and promoted the model at public hospitals by formulating and announcing the Indicators System for Municipal Public Hospitals ’ Party Building Performance Evaluation.This implementation aims to to guide,regulate and encourage the CCP work,which proves effective enhancement of the CCP building in municipal hospitals in terms of quality,efficiency,and effectiveness.
