2.A new target for gene therapy-splicing factor PUF60
Journal of International Oncology 2017;44(7):531-533
Poly(U)-binding-splicing factor 60 KDa (PUF60), a U2-related splicing factor that facilitates 3′splice-site recognition at the early stage of spliceosome assembly.High expression of PUF60 is related to the occurrence of multiple tumors, such as colorectal cancer, ovarian cancer, gastric cancer, liver cancer, et al.PUF60 can regulate the expression of c-myc through the core-human transcription factor Ⅱ basal transcription factor.Anti-PUF60 antibodies are detected in the sera of patients with early-stage and recurrent tumor, and the levels are significantly decreased after the operation.PUF60 can be used as a combined or independent test index for the diagnosis of cancer, which can be a potential new target for gene therapy.
4.Investigation on nutritional status and blood glucose control level in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes
Chinese Journal of Geriatrics 2015;34(2):202-206
Objective To investigate the nutritional status and glycemic control level in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes in urban community of Yangpu district in Shanghai.Methods The 24-hour dietary recall method for 3 consecutive days was used to investigate the dietary nutrients intake in 400 patients with type 2 diabetes.Results The ratio of patients with blood glucose level less than 6.1mmol/L was 23.3% (93/400).The energy intake in patients with type 2 diabetes was low,and only reached 62.81% of the recommended standard of energy intake for adults.The energy ratio of three diet nutrients (protein,fat and carbohydrate) were 14.41%,33.93%,51.66% respectively,which showed that the energy ratio of fat was relatively high.The energy ratio of breakfast,lunch and supper dinner were 23.37%,38.05% and 38.57% respectively.The average intake of vitamin E,iron,niacin,manganese,phosphorus and cholesterol in elderly patients was more than the recommended standard of adult diet nutrients,and reached 149.6%,138.1%,137.1%,132.5%,127.5% and 122.0% of the recommended standard respectively.But the average intakes of protein,fat,carbohydrate,dietary fiber,calcium,zinc,copper,magnesium,potassium,vitamin A,vitamin B1,vitamin B2 and vitamin C in elderly patients were lower than the recommended standard,and reached 77.9%,90.3%,57.1%,50.7%,49.3%,81.4%,75.7%,75.7%,77.5%,77.0%,55.1%,58.1% and 67.6% of the recommended standard respectively.Conclusions The status of dietary nutrients intake in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes in Yangpu district of Shanghai is unreasonable,the intakes of dietary fiber,calcium,vitamin B1,vitamin B2 etc.were insufficient,and reasonable diet instruction should be provided for the elderly patients.
5.Corticosteroids treatment in acute respiratory distress syndrome
Chinese Pediatric Emergency Medicine 2014;21(12):756-759
The presence and persistence of systemic and lung inflammation in children with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is the basis for the use of corticosteroids as a therapeutic agent.The trial of ARDS treated with high-dose short-course corticosteroids showed no benefit,even increase motality.At present,the results of randomized controlled trial and meta-analysis suggested that low-dose and replacement-dose methylprednisolone [1-2 mg/(kg· d)] or equivalent types of corticosteroids may decrease the fatality rate,reduce staying days in ICU and the duration of mechanical ventilation.Use of corticosteroids for ARDS in children is still lack of multicenter randomized controlled trial.
6.Research progress in notch signaling pathway in breast cancer stem cells
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2014;(14):938-941
Breast cancer stem cells (BCSC) are group of cells exhibiting self-renewal and multi-directional differentiation potentials. These cells have an important role in the occurrence, development, metastasis, and recurrence of breast cancer. In normal circumstances, the ability of mammary stem cells to differentiate and undergo self-renewal is governed by related signaling pathways. After this mechanism is destroyed, breast stem cells undergo abnormal differentiation, forming breast cancer stem cells that unlimitedly proliferate to develop into breast cancer. As research on BCSC increasingly deepens, regulation of BCSC by notch signaling and its crosstalk with several signaling pathways have drawn a great deal of attention in this field. This paper reports the signaling pathways of breast cancer stem cells and latest studies on this field to better understand the essential role of notch signaling pathway in the occurrence and development of breast cancer and corresponding clinical targeted therapy.
7.The Expression of Aquaporin-2,3,4 in Rats' Endolymphatic Sac and Kidney
Journal of Audiology and Speech Pathology 2004;0(05):-
Objective To confirm the expression of Aquaporin2,3,4(AQP2,3,4,water channel protein) in rats'endolymphatic sacs(ES)and kidneys and to investigate and to compare the effects of anti-diuretic hormone(AVP) and DDAVP([deamino-Cys1,D-Arg8]-Vasopressin,V2-receptor agonist)on the expression of AQP2 in rats' ESs and kidneys.Methods 30 healthy Swards white rats were divided into the negative control,AVP group and dDAVP group respectively.The animals were cardiacally perfused.The temporal bones and kidneys were taken out and sectioned by means of the paraffin-embedded technique.The sections of ESs were labeled with fluorescent antibody by immunohistochemical method,and the kidneys' with avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex method(ABC).The expressions of AQP-2 were confirmed in the ESs of the rats while the different effects of the AVP and DDAVP on the ESs and the kidneys were observed.The slides used were analyzed by the image-analyzer and the subsequent data were statistically studied.Results In the cytomembrane and cytoplasm of ESs' epithelia,the constant and clear fluorescent reaction could be observed in the normal control group with the first antibody of AQP2.Significant feeble fluorescent reaction of the first antibody of AQP-2 was revealed in AVP group and DDAVP group.In comparison with the control group,significant stain was found in AVP group and DDAVP group.Noted were also lower gray(P

9.Giving Full Scope to Licensed Pharmacists in Retail Drug Stores
China Pharmacy 2001;0(12):-
OBJECTIVE:To discuss the role of licensed pharmacists in retail drug stores.METHODS:The current situation of licensed pharmacists’role playing in retail drug stores and the influcing factors were analysed.RESULTS&CONCLU?SION:The licensed pharmacist system remains to be perfect in China,we suggust that the licensed pharmacists'role should be further strengthed from two links,i.e.“access”and“employment”.
10.Content analysis of the reasons of non-disclosure of truthful information to cancer patients by their families
Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2013;29(29):67-70
Objective The purpose of the study was to clarify the reasons that may explain the families' non-disclosure of the truthful information to cancer patients in our medical background.Methods The study included 82 family members of cancer patients who was not told truthful diagnosis by convenience sampling.Data were analyzed by Bernard Berelson's content analysis.Results 13 categories and 7 themes were formulated,including avoiding,concerns,judgment,buffer,cognition,impact and endurance.The agreement rates were 75.2% and 78.7%.Conclusions The families' non-disclosure of truthful information to cancer patients was a kind of avoiding behavior,the judgment of families impacted their attitude towards telling or not.
