Neovascularization is the basis of tumor growth and metastasis. Angiogenesis depends mainly on the regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor and angiogenesis inhibiting factor. The vascular endothelial growth factor and its receptor are the most important and are studied most. The expression of them increased significantly in gastric cancer tissue and serum.. They promote angiogenesis of tumor. They are closely related to the prognosis of patient. The vascular endothelial growth factor and its receptor in the gastric cancer are reviewed in this article.

Eosinophilic esophagitis(EoE)is a chronic autoimmune inflammatory disease characterized by accumulation of eosinophils in all layers of esophagus and lacking typical clinical manifestations. The pathogenesis has not yet been clarified. Diagnosis is mainly by combined judgment,including clinical manifestation,endoscopy and histopathology. Treatment includes food,drug and surgical therapy. This article reviewed the advances in study on EoE.

Distributed architectures support increased load on popular web sites by dispatching client requests transparently among multiple servers in a cluster. Packet Single-Rewriting technology and client address hashing algorithm in ONE-IP technology which can ensure application-session-keep have been analyzed, an improved request dispatching algorithm which is simple, effective and supports dynamic load balance has been proposed. In this algorithm, dispatcher evaluates which server node will process request by applying a hash function to the client IP address and comparing the result with its assigned identifier subset; it adjusts the size of the subset according to the performance and current load of each server, so as to utilize all servers' resource effectively. Simulation shows that the improved algorithm has better performance than the original one.

BACKGROUND: When the dynamic equilibrium between oxidation system and anti-oxidation system in the body is upset, the overly produced active oxygen-derived free radicals will attack the target organs, thus resulting in the damage to organs and big molecules, and then diseases. Total anti-oxidation capacity (T-AOC), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity are the majorindexes for the defense system of the body, and their status is closely related to diseases. OBJECTIVE:To explore the level of T-AOC, SOD and NOS in serum,and find out its relationship with lifestyle. DESIGN:Single sample investigation. SETTING:Department of Health Laboratory Technology, College of Public Health of Harbin Medical University. PARTICIPANTS:Totally 531 residents of Bin County aged 20 to 70years were recruited between September 2000 and May2001. MATERIALS:The reagents kits of T-AOC, SOD and NOS were manufactured by Nanjing Jiancheng Bio-engineering Institute. METHODS:The investigators surveyed the residents with the same questionnaire. Questionnaire was made and the investigators were trained in advance. The questionnaire was filled in item by item as required. Questionnaire items consisted of the general situation, financial status, dietary habit, hobby, status of health care, and mental factor. Finally 95 investigation indexes were completed. The activity of serum T-AOC, SOD and NOS of the 531 residents in Bin County was determined, respectively, with reagent kits produced by Nanjing Jiancheng Bio-engineering Institute. The lifestyle factors were analyzed by multivariate stepwise regression analysis,and informed consent was obtained from the participants. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURFS:① Serum T-AOC, SOD and NOS in the participants; ② lifestyle factors affecting T-AOC, SOD and NOS.RFSULTS:According to actual analysis, the 531 participants entered the results analysis. T-AOC was measured in 489 participants, SOD in 525participants, and NOS in 531 participants. ① Indexes of the participants:T-AOC of the males was obviously higher than that of the females [(20.01±7.21), (15.25±6.22) kU/L, P ＜ 0.05]. SOD of the males was slightly lower than that of the females while NOS of the males was slightly higher than that of the females, but there was no significant difference. ②Multivariate stepwise regression analysis showed that risk factors related to T-AOC were gender difference (OR=2.188), educational level (OR=1.859),and the presence of rheumatism, respectively (OR =1.142). SOD-related risk factors were educational level (OR=1.584), years of spirit drinking (OR =1.048), presence of nephritis (OR=1.093), and irradiation (OR=1.770);frequency of tea drinking was a beneficial factor (OR=0.800). NOS-related risk factors were the average amount of cigarette smoking (OR=1.194) and the times of weekly spirit drinking (OR=1.368). However, the beneficial factor that affected serum NOS was the frequency of weekly mutton eating (OR=0.458) CONCLUSION:This experiment revealed that the ability to clean free radical in the 531 subjects was good and that it was better in males than in females. The increased educational level and presence of rheumatism can decrease T-AOC. Drinking, smoking and irradiation decrease SOD activity while the frequency of tea drinking and mutton eating are beneficial factors.

Objective To observe the influence of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) transplantation on the expression of alpha-amino hydroxymethyl-oxazole propionic acid (AMPA) receptors GluR1 and GluR2 in rats with spinal cord injury (SCI) so as to investigate the potential anti- chronic stress mechanism of BMSCs transplantation in treatment of rats with spinal cord injury.Methods A total of 48 adult male SD rats were equally divided into three groups:control group,treatment group and model group.The rats in the model and treatment group underwent lower thoracic SCI with the modified Allen' s method,and the rats in control group received only laminectomy.At day 7 after thoracic SCI,100 μl of Hank's buffered saline solution containing 1.0 × 106 BMSCs was injected into the subarachnoid space from L4-L5 intervertebral space in the treatment group and control group,and the same amount of Hank' s buffered saline solution was injected in the model group.The motor function of the rat posterior limbs was assessed by Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan (BBB) scale before and after operation.Half of the rats were anesthetized at days 14 and 28 postoperatively to harvest brains which were frozen and cut in a cryostat to detect the expressions of GluR1 and GluR2 proteins by immunohistochemistry.Results After BMSCs transplantation,the motor function of the posterior limbs in the treatment group was improved progressively.At day 14 after transplantation,the number of GluR1-positive cells of the model and treatment group was higher than that of the control group in the hippocampus CA1 region (P ＜0.05,P ＜0.01 respectively) ; GluR2-positive cells had the similar tendency,without significant difference(P ＞ 0.05 ).At the 28th day after transplantation,GluR1 positive cells of the model group were higher than those of the control group in CA1,CA3,DG regions and those of the treatment group in CA1,CA3 regions (P ＜0.05,P ＜0.01,respectively) ; GluR1 positive cells of the model and treatment group were higher than their counterpart at day 14 after grafting procedure,with significant difference (P ＜0.05,P ＜0.01,respectively).GluR2 positive cells of the treatment group were higher than those of the control group in the basolateral amygdale (BLA) (P ＜0.05 ) and had similar tendency with GluR1 expression in other regions ( P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusion BMSCs transplantation implies a potential antichronic stress mechanism of SCI rats,since it can improve the motor function of posterior limbs in rats with lower thoracic SCI and regulate the expressions of AMPA receptor GluR1 and GluR2.
