Due to its effectiveness and specificity,RNA interference (RNAi) technology is widely used in the treatment of tumor,viral infectious and metabolic diseases.Noninvasively tracing the delivery of therapeutic RNA molecules in vivo and evaluating the therapeutic effects are important to promote the clinical application of RNAi technology.Molecular imaging allows noninvasive visualization of biological processes at the cellular and molecular level in vivo.It can be used to monitor the biodistribution of therapeutic RNA molecules and to assess the effects of the RNAi.This article reviews the advance of molecular imaging in monitoring the delivery of RNAi molecules and evaluating the therapeutic effects of RNAi.

The pathologic grading and clinical staging systems have some restrictions for the evaluation of the prognosis of prostate cancer.Early detection of prostate cancer with clinically sensitive diagnostic methods and / or tumor specific markers is of prime importance.Recently,close attention has been paid to the effects of genes related to apoptosis and tumor suppressor genes on the development,progression and prognostic value of prostate cancer.The importance of enzymes/proteins and hormone receptors have also received more and more emphasis in the studies of prostate cancer.

Objective To explore the distribution of temperament types and its related influencing factors of school-age twins.Method Childhood temperament were evaluated by standardized Middle Childhood Temperament Questionnaire (MCTQ) in a total of 125 pairs of 8 to 12 years old twins,and temperament related factors were measured by FACES Ⅱ-CV.Results The majority of temperament types of school-age twins were easy and intermediate-low.Easy,intermediate-low,difficult,intermediate-high and start-to-warm up took a percent of 41.6％,38.0％,11.2％,6.4％ and 2.8％,respectively.The heritability of temperament types was 0.454.The distribution of temperament types were influenced by the family cohesion,parenting rearing style,zygotic,age,father's occupation,mother's educational level and the method of delivery.Conclusion The temperament types of school-age twins were both influenced by genetic and environmental factors.

The distribution of the ACTH_(1-39)-immunoreactive neurons in the hypotha- lamus of 4 human adults was examined with ABC immunocytochemical method. The results showed that in addition to ACTH_(1-39)-immunoreactive neurons found in the infundibular nucleus of the hypothalamus which were identical with the previous reports, negafivt ACTH_(1-39)immunoreactive neurons were also found in paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei. These cell bodies were round or elliptic in shape. More negative ACTH_(1-39)immunoreactive fibers were seen in the periventricular layer, paraventricular nucleus and dorsal area of supraoptic nucleus.

Objective To determine main factors associated with quality of life in epileptics in northen China especially seizure severity and stigma, and the variations between men and women. Methods All patients with epilepsy aged 18-65 years were selected from the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University, tested from March 2014 to March 2015. All of them completed the general social science data, the Quality of Life Inventory in Epilepsy-31 (QOLIE-31), Liverpool Adverse Events Profile (LEAP), the National Hospital Seizure Severity Scale (NHS3), Epilepsy Stigma Scale (ESS), Self-rating Anxiety Scale ( SAS) and Hamilton Depression Scale ( HAMD) assessment. Results A total of 123 patients with epilepsy (60 men, 63 women) were interviewed. QOLIE-31 scores were 55. 81 ± 10. 17 in female patients, 65. 35 ± 10. 89 in male patients, the difference being statistically significant (t=2. 90, P<0. 05). ESS (1(0,2)), SAS(31. 85 ± 8. 16), HAMD (4. 38 ± 2. 90) scores of female patients were higher than that of male patients (0(0,0), 26. 93 ± 3. 45, 2. 80 ± 1. 39;U= -2. 710, t=2. 48, 2. 20, all P<0. 05). Multiple factors analysis and multiple stepwise regression analysis on quality of life revealed that depression (β= -0. 516, P<0. 01) and the severity of epilepsy (β= -0. 338, P=0. 01) were two strong predictors of QOLIE-31 overall scores. The linear regression showed that there was a direct link between shame and degree of depression (β = 0. 515, P= 0. 001 ) . Conclusions The main factors affecting the quality of life in epileptics in northen China are depression and seizure severity. Compared with male patients, female patients have a lower quality of life, and poorer psychological status, such as shame, depression and anxiety. There is a direct link between shame and depression in epileptics.

Objective To explore the significance of multiple microelectrode guided technique in determining the sensory?motor area of the sub?thalamic nucleus(STN)in deep brain stimulation(DBS)surgeries. Methods A total of 22 electrophysiological recording data of STNs recorded by multiple microelectrode was retrospectively analyzed ,while another 20 electrophysiological recording data of STNs recorded by a single micro?electrode was recruited as the control group. Results A total of 64 microelectrodes were used in 22 STNs guided by multiple electrophysiological recording electrodes. Sensory or motor activated potentials were recorded in 21 sides(95.5%),while regular discharge was recorded in one side. The average length of typical STN activity on the optimal channel of multiple electrophysiological recording electrodes was 5.58±0.53 mm,and the average length of sensory or motor activated potentials was 3.27±1.54 mm. In contrast,the average length of typical STN activity recorded by single microelectrode was 5.02±1.01 mm. However,sensory or motor activated potentials were recorded in 13 sides(65.0%)with the average length of 1.36±0.98 mm. Among the 22 STNs guided by multiple electrophysiological recording electrodes,the final implanted target was consistent with the initially selected anatomic target in 13 sides(coincidence rate,59.1%). In 9 sides,the electrophysiological target was inconsistent with the initially selected anatomic target. Conclusion STN DBS performed with multiple electrophysiological recording electrodes resulted in better outcomes of recording of the average length of typical STN activity or the average length of sensory or motor activated potentials of STN ,final confirmation of STN sensory motor area and determination of the optimal channel of implantation. Application of multiple electrophysiological recording electrodes provides a premise for the precise electrode placement in STN DBS surgeries.

BACKGROUND: Many study results proved that electroacupuncture can cause change of endogenous opioid peptide system.OBJECTIVE: To observe the change of blood sugar and blood lipoprotein (a) in rats with diabetes mellitus after electroacupuncture therapy and probe into the effect of opioid peptide system in the treatment for diabetes with electroacupuncture.DESIGN: Randomized controlled trial with experimental animals as the subjects.SETTING: The experiment was conducted in the Department of Pathophysiology, Medical College of Shandong University.MATERIALS: The experiment was completed in the Department of Pathophysiology, Medical College of Shandong University from July 2004 to December 2004. Totally 140 male Wistar rats were involved.METHODS: Ten Wistar rats were collected randomly as the blank control group. The other 130 rats were given 20 g/L streptozotocin 50 mg/kg intraperitoneally and the rats in blank control group were given the same volume of saline intraperitoneally. Three weeks later, the tails were cut off and the blood sugar was measured 2 hours after food intake. The rats with obvious rapid sugar tolerance were given foods with high calories for 28 days as the model rats. There were 64 rats were successful models and they were classified into 3 groups randomly, namely model control group( n = 20), electroacupuncture therapy(n=22) and electroacupuncture with naloxone groups( n = 22) . The blood sugar and blood lipoprotein(a) were detected after treatment for the diabetic rats with streptozotocin.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Blood sugar level and blood lipoprotein(a) of each rat after the final therapy.RESULTS: Totally 74 rats entered the result analysis. Electroacupuncture therapy could reduce the blood sugar and blood lipoprotein(a) of diabetes mellitus rats, while rats with naloxone injection before therapy were insensitive to electroacupuncture. [The blood sugar value were(13.91 ± 3.79),( 10.33 ± 2.36), (12.96 ± 2.23)mmol/L in the model control group, electroacupuncture therapy group, electroacupuncture with naloxone group respectively; while the level of blood lipoprotein(a) were(13.75 ±2.69),( 10.81 ± 2.96), (13.01 ± 3.23)mg/L respectively].CONCLUSION: Electroacupuncture therapy can reduce the level of blood sugar and the risk of atherosclerosis in rats with diabetes mellitus. Although the mechanism can not be explained through the meridian theory, according to the experimental result that blood sugar and blood lipoprotein(a) were no longer intervened by electroacupuncture therapy after injecting naloxone, it is presumed that electroacupuncture therapy can exert its intervention effect on blood sugar and blood lipoprotein(a)through opiate system.
