Objective In order to study the value of drug treatment for leukemia, quercetin was delivered to the cultured NB4 cell line. MethodsUsing RT- PCR and western blot, we studied the expression of mutant p53 gene and protein after inducing 24, 48, 72, 96 and 120h by the quercetin with different concentrations (30, 60, 90μmol/L). Results We verified the results that quercetin with concentration of 30 ～90μmol/L could successfully inhibit the expression of mutant p53 protein, but the mutant p53 gene did not have. ConclusionThat data suggested that quercetin would be an effective method for the therapy of leukemia.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the protect effects of sodium ferulate (SF) on the daunormbicin(DNR-induced cardiotoxicity in juvenile rats.

METHODSForty male juvenile SD rats were randomly divided into control group (Control), daunorubicin group (DNR), sodium ferudate treatment group (DNR + SF), sodium ferudate group (SF) (n = 10) . Juvenile rats were intraperitoneally treated with DNR (2.5 mg/kg every week for a cumulative dose of 10 mg/kg) preparation immature myocardial injury model in presence with SF (60 mg/kg) oral treat- ment for 25 days. The left ventricular pressure and its response to isoproterenol were measured using left ventricular catheter. Rat myocardium myocardial pathology specimens and ultrastructure changes were also observed. The expression of cardiac Troponin I (cTNI) was detected by Western blot and RT-PCR. Results: SF treatment could inhibit the decreasing of heart rates induced by DNR damage (P < 0.05); it could increase the left ventrivular end diastolic pressure(LVEDP), heart rate, the maximal left ventrivular systolic speed(LVP + dp/dtmax) and the maximal left ventrivular diastolic speed (LVP-dp/dtmax) responding to isoproterenol stimulation(P < 0.01); SF also could improve the myocardial ultrastructure injuries and inhibit the decreasing of cTNI expression caused by DNR damages (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSF treatment could alleviate the decreasing of cardiac reservation induced by DNR damages in juvenile rats, which might be related to its reversing the effects on the cardiac systolic and diastolic function injuries and its inhibiting effects on the decreasing of cTNI expression caused by DNR. The mechanism of SF preventing daunorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity in juvenile rats is relevant to inhabited cardiac Troponin I expression.

The type of basic media and the contents of plant growth substances were investigated by orthogonal design experiment,and also the effects of different culture conditions on the growth of suspension cells and the accumulation of total flavonoids in Eucommia ulmoides were studied.The results showed that B5 medium supplemented with 0.5mg/L NAA,0.6mg/L 6-BA and 30g/L sucrose,at initial pH 5.0～5.5,20g(FW)/L inoculation quantity and 110 r/min of rotation speed was a preferable culture conditions for E.ulmoides suspension cells growth and flavonoids synthesis.The results of metabolic kinetics analysis for E.ulmoides cell suspension culture showed that the logistic and Luedeking-Piret equations can be used for describing the kinetics of cell growth,sucrose consumption and flavonoids production during the process.The maximum specific growth rate(?m),the actual growth yield based on sucrose(YG) and maintenance coefficient(m) were 0.417/d,0.619g/g and 0.0206g/(g?d-1) respectively.All these outcomes could give a basis for establishing the suspension cell culture of E.ulmoides and production of the natural active components in large-scale.

OBJECTIVETo observe the clinical curative effect of Rupi Xiaosan Recipe (RPXSR) on cyclomastopathy by adjusting the Chong-Ren Meridian through various paths.

METHODSOne hundred patients were assigned to two groups, the 60 patients in the treatment group and the 40 in the control group. They were treated by RPXSR and Rukang Tablet (RKT) respectively, and the changes of clinical symptoms and signs before and after treatment were observed and recorded, and the size of mammary tubercle was measured by molybdenum target X-ray and infrared scanning as well.

RESULTSThe total effective rate in the treatment group and the control group was 96.7% and 87.5% respectively, showing significant difference between them (P < 0.05). The outcome of X-ray and infrared scanning confirmed that RPXSR was superior to RKT in reducing the size of tubercle (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONRPXSR can improve the local blood circulation and inhibit the hyperplasia of mammary gland, has reliable effect on improving clinical symptoms in patients with cyclomastopathy.

Objective To investigating knowledge,attitudes,current behavior among primary school students on nutrition and food safety in two State-level poverty-stricken counties,and to explore the best educational model on nutrition and food safety.Methods 478 pupils at 4-6 grades were selected,using the method of stratified cluster sampling and questionnairs.Results The average score on knowledge was 18.66 ± 3.75,with the qualified rate as 61.09％ (the highest was 60.6％).The average score in the section of attitude was 5.82 ± 1.50.More than 97％ of the students agreed that it was necessary to receive knowledge on nutrition and food safety.The average score of behavior was 8.52 ± 2.56.Conclusion Rate of awareness on knowledge of nutrition and food safety had greatly improved among the students under study.Their habit tended to be more regular.However,we also noticed the gap between knowledge and behavior on this issue.

Objective To investigate the causes,consequences and management of injuries to the draining veins after embolization of brain arteriovenous malformations(BAVMs)with ?-n-butyl cyanoacrylate (NBCA).Methods The angiographic imaging data of 189 BAVMs patients who underwent NBCA embolization were studied retrospectively.The status of the draining veins before and after NBCA embolization was observed and compared.The intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH)complications and their relation to their angiographic features were analyzed.Results Twenty-three patients out of 189 patients showed injuries to the draining venous system,including 10 low-grade injury,6 moderate injury,and 7 high- grade injury.Six patients suffered from ICH after embolization,of whom 4 patients were due to injuries of the draining veins(2 moderate and 2 high-grade).In the 3 months follow-up evaluation of 4 patients with ICH, one died,one was in vegetative state,and the other two patients suffered from residual severe or minor (1 patient for each)permanent neurological deficits.Conclusion Our findings suggest that injury of the draining veins is the major cause of ICH and may lead to serious consequences after embolization of BAVMs with NBCA.

Objective To evaluate the values of gastrin‐releasing peptide (pro‐GRP) and neuronspecific enolase (NSE) in differ‐ential diagnosing of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) .Methods Serum samples from 120 SCLC patients ,130 non‐small cell lung canc‐er (NSCLC) ,80 Patients with benign lung disease and 90 healthy donors were collected to detect the level of pro‐GRP and NSE .All data were analyzed by SPSS13 .0 and then we analyzed the serum level and positive rates of the two tumor markers .ROC was gener‐ated by GraphPad Prism 5 .Results The expression level of pro‐GRP and NSE in SCLC group were significant higher than NSCLC group、benign lung disease group and healthy donors group (P<0 .05) .The positive rates of pro‐GRP in SCLC were higher than the other three groups (P<0 .05) .However ,there had no significant difference between SCLC group and NSCLC group in the posi‐tive rates of NSE(P>0 .05) .ROC area under curve of pro‐GRP ,NSE and both were 0 .890 ,0 .810 and 0 .915 ,separately .Conclusion The tumor biomarker of NSE could only identify of benign and malignant lung diseases ,but can not identify the type of lung canc‐er including SCLC and NSCLC ;Nonetheless the tumor biomarker of pro‐GRP could not only identify benign and malignant lung dis‐eases ,but also identify the pathological type of SCLC and NSCLC ;Combined determination of pro‐GRP and NSE had significant values for the differential diagnosis of SCLC .
