After many targeted drugs have entered into the treatment guideline or all stage clinical trial of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), many researchers undertake deep investigation on the role of molecular gene marker in targeted therapy of NSCLC. It is a good outset that mutation detection of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene direct the selection of EFGR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKI). To choose individualized therapy regimens according to molecular gene marker will be the important research direction, but also be the critical measure to improve the management level of NSCLC and prolong patient"s survival. Accompanied with deep investigation of targeted therapy, there will be more molecular gene markers to direct the formulation of individualized therapy regimens.

In this article, a method to determine the content of liquiritin, ammonium glycyrrhetate, costunolide and dehydrocostus lactone in Mongolia medicine Ga Ri Di-13 pill was established. The chromatographic condition for liquiritin and ammonium glycyrrhetate was listed as the below: with Dimma column (250 mm×4.6 mm, 5μm) as stationary phase; with acetonitrile (A)-0.4%phosphoric acid (B) as mobile phase; gradient elution: 0-10 min (16%-18% A), 10-30 min (18% A), 30-40 min (18%-27% A), 40-85 min (27%-45% A), and 85-86 min (45%-16%A); column temperature was set at 30℃; detection wavelength was 237 nm; and flow velocity was 1 mL·min-1. The chromatographic column condition for costunalide and dehydrocostus lactone was listed as the below: with Dimma column (250 mm×4.6 mm, 5μm) as stationary phase; with acetonitrile-water (65:35) as mobile phase; detection wavelength was 225 nm; column temperature was set at 30℃ and flow velocity was 1.0 mL·min-1. The linearity ranges of liquiritin, ammonium glycyrrhetate, costunolide, and dehydrocostus lactone were 0.1-1.2μg (r=0.999 9), 0.341-4.092μg (r=1.000 0), 0.12-1.2μg (r=1.000 0), and 0.106-1.06 (r=1.000 0), respectively; the average recovery rates were 97.07%, 100.13%, 98.44%, and 98.90%, respectively; the RSD were 1.00%, 1.84%, 2.21% and 3.38%,respectively.

Lycopene is an important natural carotenoid,and is widely found in human tissues and blood,with the prevention of many types of cancer,anti-aging effect.It can inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells of oral malignancy,and increasing of gap-junction communication between cells to prevent oral cancer,and also can inhibit the development of colorectal cancer by reducing the activity of matrix metalloproteinase.It plays the role of anti-metastasis through enhancing the expression of anti-metastatic gene nm23-H1.

Recently,many studies find that microRNA plays a key role in the development,diagnosis,treatment and prevention of gastric cancer.It is confirmed that miR-451 can be used as a useful biomarker for the screening of gastric cancer.Studies also show that miR-203 and miR-21 may become diagnostic markers of gastric cancer.MicroRNA can play the role of oncogenes,and also can play the role of tumor suppressor gene,such as miR-141 plays the role of tumor suppressor gene through inhibition of the positive fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 gene expression.

Objective To study the effects of high cholesterol diet and activated macrophages (M) on glycoprotein secretion from the gallbladder tissue of guniea pig.Method Forty guniea pigs were randomized into group A fed with ordinary diet and group B fed with a diet containing 1.2% cholesterol for one week.Glycoprotein secretion from guinea pig gallbladder was observed in tissue culture using ~3H-glucesamine as a precursor,and in the meantime,with hydrocortisone and activated M to understand the effects on glycoprotein synthesis and secre- tion function of gallbladder epithelium.Results The activity of peritoneal M was significantly increased in guinea pigs fed with high cholesterol diet.High cholesterol diet induced significant release of ~3H-glucosamine-labeled gly- coprotein into the tissue culture medium as compared with the control level of guinea pig fed with normal diet.The gallbladder tissues were co-cultured for 16 hours with peritoneal M of guinea pig fed with high cholesterol diet. Mucin secretion had an evident increase compared with the controls (with the peritoneal M of guinea pig fed with normal diet at 10~4,10~6 cell/ml).Hydrocortisone (10~(-6),10~(-5),10~(-4)mol/l) caused a reversible dose-dependent inhibition on glycoprotein secretion from the gallbadder tissues of guinea pig fed with high cholesterol diet.Hydro- cortisone (10~(-4)mol/l) also inhibited the stimulatory effect of M activated by high cholesterol diet on glycoprotein hypersecretion in the gallbladder tissues of guinea pig fed with ordinary diet.Conclusion (1) High cholesterol diet can induce the increase of glycoprotein secretion from gallbladder tissues of guinea pig;(2) M can be actvi- ated by high cholesterol diet,which stimulates glycoprotein secretion from the gallbladder tissues of guinea pig. Considering the results of experiment using an animal gallbladder stone model,these findings suggest that the hy- persecretion of glycuprotein from guinea pig gallbladder tissue may be related to guinea pig M activated by high cholesterol diet and stimulated to release TNF,IL-I,etc.

Objective To explore the feasibility of Ilizarov technique in managing large tibia defects combined with soft tissue defects.Methods A total of 24 patients with large tibial defects combined with soft tissue defects caused by compound open tibial fractures were fixed with Ilizarov technique from September 2003 to September 2010.All patients belonged to open tibial fractures,including 20 patients with Gustilo type Ⅲ B and four with Gustilo type Ⅲ C.After debridement,the soft tissue defect areas was 10 cm ×6 cm and the bone defect was(8 ±4)cm.Fifteen patients with tibial defects ＜5 cm were treated with one stage debridement,fibula resection and tibial defect end compression.The other nine patients with tibial defect ＞ 5 cm were managed by one stage debridement,bone transport and bone lengthening.Then,15 patients were treated with one stage debridement,wound closure or wound reduction,bone grafting treatment and second stage cleansing of the incarcerated skin and fracture end.Results All patients were followed up for average 14 months(10-24 months),which showed reconstruction of the bone defects,restoration of the limb length,fracture healing and less than 2 cm difference between health limb and contralateral limb.One patient experienced common peroneal nerve palsy after operation,but recovered three months later.Of all,19 patients recovered without extra surgery,three restored with skin graft and two received skin flap.Conclusion Ilizarov technique is an effective option for treating the tibial defects combined with soft tissue defects at one stage.

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of synthetic medical calcium phosphate and calcium sulfate as the bone replacements for bone defects.MethodsA total of 85 bone trauma patients combined with bone defects treated between February 2000 and October 2011 were randomized to calcium phosphate group ( n =43 ) and calcium sulfate group ( n =42 ) according to bone substitutes.The patients had orthopedic conventional treatment and then received external fixation ( external fixators,plasters) or internal fixation (plates,needles).Forty-three patients in the calcium phosphate group were all treated with medical calcium phosphate and 42 patients in the calcium sulfate group were all treated with medical calcium sulfate.Postoperative complications,fracture healing time and bone substitute absorption time of the two groups were observed and compared.ResultsAfter artificial bone filling for bone defects,all fractures were healed,with average healing time of 12.5 weeks ( range,9-17 weeks) in the calcium phosphate group and 11.3 weeks (range,7-15 weeks) in the calcium sulfate group.No complications or abnormal reactions occurred in the calcium sulfate group,whereas four patients with incision exudation was founded in the calcium phosphate group,and was cured after dressing change.The average follow-up period was 54.5 weeks (range,14-70 weeks).Average absorption time of bone substitute for the calcium phosphate group was 7.3 weeks,longer than that for the calcium sulfate group (P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusions Medical calcium phosphate and calcium sulfate artificial bones can both be used as bone substitutes and are characterized by convenience,safety and good healing under the auxiliary of internal and external fixators.The calcium sulfate is sturdier and has relatively stronger supporting ability than the calcium phosphate.As the bone substitute,the calcium sulfate has more precise clinical effects,fewer complications and shorter healing time than the calcium phosphate.

ObjectiveTo investigate the serum tumor markers level of carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA) ,cytokeratin fragment antigen21-1 (CYFRA21-1),neuron specific enolase (NSE) in patients with lung cancer, and the change after chemotherapy on them. Methods Radioimmunoassay was applied to detect the levels of CEA, CYFRA21-1 ,NSE in 45 patients with advanced NSCLC before and after chemotherapy,and the tumor markers were also detected in 20 patients with SCLC and 20 patients with benign lung diseases of control groups. ResultsThe levels of CEA, CYFRA21-1, NSE in lung cancer group before chemotherapy were much higher than benign group, but there was no difference of CYFRA21-1 between the SCLC group and benign group. The same result of NSE was found between NSCLC and benign group(P ＞0. 05). The value of NSE was lower in the patients with SCLC after chemotherapy than before(P ＜0. 01 ). The level of CYFRA21-1 was lower in squamous carcinoma than before( P ＜0. 01 ). But in the adenocarcinoma group only NSE's level was lower after chemotherapy( P ＞0. 05) ,there were no differences in CEA and CYFRA21-1 ( P ＞ 0. 05 ). ConclusionThe levels of the three tumor markers rise obviously in advanced NSCLC and decrease after chemotherapy. The differences were significant with NSE in SCLC and CYFRA21-1 in squamous cell carcinoma and CEA in adenocarcinoma. The levels of serum CEA,CYFRA21-1 and NSE could be a tumor marker in progressive lung cancer. And the decrease of the levels could be used to evaluate the chemotherapeutic response respectively in different pathologic types of lung cancer.

Internal drainage of the biliary tract such as choledocho-duodenostomy or Roux-en-y choledocho-jejunostomy is a common operation for the treatment of primary choledocholithiasis and biliary stricture. Though these operations can creat a good drainage, serious reflux cholangitis is frequently resulted. In order to prevent this tiresome complication, the authors have designed a new operative procedure: a loop of jejunum is isolated and an artificial papilla is made on its distal end, then its proximal end is joined to the bile duct and its distal end with the artificial papilla is inserted into the duodenum and the two parts are sutured up.This paper is to report this operative method in detail and our experience with 11 cases. After operation, no reflux of the intestinal content into the interposed jejunal loop was found and barium meal could demonstrate reflux of the contrast medium only in one case out of the 11. Ten cases were followed up from 4 to 18 months and excellent results were observed. It proves that this operative procedure can prevent the reflux of chyme into the biliary tract.Interposed jejunal loop with an artificial papilla is more physiological than Roux-en-y choledochojejunostomy since bile can flow through the interposed jejunum loop into duodenum to mix with the pancreatic fluid and the chyme, which is helpful to better digestion.

Background and purpose:Protein kinase C (PKC) is a potentially important target for cancer therapy due to its potential role in carcinogenesis. Abnormal expression and increasing activity of PKC-?are present in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).The aim of this study is to investigate PKC-? protein expressions in lung cancer tissues by tissue microarray and their significance. Methods:Using tissue microarray, PKC-? protein expression in lung cancer patients was examined by immunohistochemistry. 182 samples of umor tissues and 18 samples of adjacent tissues were taken;of the 182 samples, 160 were NSCLC tissues and 22 were SCLC;102 samples from stage I cases and 58 from stageⅡ-Ⅲ cases.Results:Expression of PKC-? protein was observed in 48.3% (88/182) of cancerous tissues and 16.7% (3/18) of adjacent tissues (P
