Drynaria fortunei,commonly known as"bone setting herb",has been widely included in various traditional Chinese herb-al classics for treating bone injuries.It is used medicinally from its rhizome,which has a bitter taste and warm property.It is known to nourish the kidneys,strengthen bones,and alleviate pain from injuries.The chemical constituents mainly include flavonoids,phenylpro-panoids,triterpenoids,phenolic acids,lignans,and sterols.Modern medical research indicates that Drynaria fortunei has anti-osteoporo-sis effects,promotes fracture healing,has anti-inflammatory properties,and benefits dental health.This article reviews the historical use of Drynaria fortunei and recent research on its chemical composition and pharmacological effects,summarizing some of the mechanisms of action.The aim is to provide a reference for further research on this medicinal herb.

Objective To study the expression of Stathmin gene in ovarian cancer tissue and its valuation value on effect of Paclitaxel combined with cisplatin chemotherapy.Methods 92 cases of ovarian cancerpatients underwent surgical and postoperative chemotherapy treatment in our hospital during July 2012 to February 2016 were selected with research subject.The expression of Stathmin gene in ovarian cancer tissues and adjacent tissues was measured by fluorescence quantitative PCR.All ovarian cancer patients were divided into high Stathmin group and low Stathmin group with 46 cases according to the expression of Stathmin gene in ovarian cancer tissues.Comparison the chemotherapy effectin ovarian cancerpatients with different Stathmin gene expression.Results The expression of Stathmin mRNA in ovarian cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in adjacent tissues(P<0.05).After chemotherapy, serum tumor markers such as HE4, CA199, CA153, β-HCG in high Stathmin group were higher than those in low Stathmin group, angiogenesis indexes such as CXCR4, SDF-1, VEGF, Ang2 were lower than those in low Stathmin group, apoptotic indexes such as Fas/Apo-1 and Bcl-2 were higher than those in low Stathmin group(P<0.05).Conclusion Stathmin gene is highly expressed in ovarian cancer tissues, and the expression of Stathmin is negatively correlated with chemotherapy.

Objective To study the application value of CD10,desmin and vimentin in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of special types of uterine tumors.Methods The clinical data of 79 cases of special types of uterine cancer were retrospectively analyzed.CD10,desmin and vimentin were detected respectively by immunohistochemical streptavidin-perosidase(SP) method.Results The positive rates of CD10 in endometrial stromal sarcoma,epithelioid leiomyoma,atypical leiomyoma,leiomyosarcoma,carcinosarcoma were 76.2%,0.0%,13.3%,30.8%,75.0%,respectively.The positive rates of vimentin in endometrial stromal sarcoma,epithelioid leiomyoma,atypical leiomyoma,leiomyosarcoma,carcinosarcoma were 100.0%,5.6%,0.0%,46.2%,83.3%,respectively.The positive rates of desmin in endometrial stromal sarcoma,epithelioid leiomyoma,atypical leiomyoma,leiomyosarcoma,carcinosarcoma were 0.0%,61.1%,53.3%,30.8%,0.0%,respectively.The positive rates of vimentin and CD10 in endometrial stromal sarcoma and carcinosarcoma were all significantly higher than those in atypical leiomyoma,epithelioid leiomyoma(CD10:χ2=23.255,13.829,15.880,8.102,all P=0.000;vimentin:χ2=35.159,36.000,15.556,16.440,all P=0.000).The positive rates of desmin in atypical leiomyoma,epithelioid leiomyoma tissues were significantly higher than those in endometrial interstitial sarcomas,carcinosarcoma(χ2=11.480,6.717,17.875,9.097,all P=0.000).Conclusion CD10,desmin and vimentin can be used as sensitive indicators for the differential diagnosis of uterine tumors with special types.

Aim To investigate the anticancer effect of a new xanthono-pyridine derivative N, N '-( 7-oxo-7H-chromeno[3,2-h] quinoline-5,9-diyl)-bis(2-( pyrroli-din-1-yl)acetamide) (XP-16) on human lung carcino-ma cell line A549 and the potential mechanism. Meth-ods Antiproliferative effect of XP-16 on A549 cells was evaluated by MTT assay, morphological examina-tion and colonial assay. Apoptosis detection was car-ried out using Hoechst 33258 and PI double-dyeing method. Intracellular Ca2+ concentration ( [ Ca2+] i ) and mitochondria membrane potential were detected by fluorospectrophotometer. A549 cells treated with XP-16 were collected for Bad and metallothionein 1 A ( MT-1 A ) transcript analysis by real-time reverse tran-scriptase-polymerase chain reaction ( qRT-PCR) . Re-sults XP-16 inhibited A549 cell proliferation in dose-and time-dependent manner. Typical apoptotic mor-
phology such as chromatin aggregation and nuclear fragmentation was observed in A549 cells treated with XP-16 for 24 h, and the apoptosis was showed in a dose-dependent manner. After treated with XP-16, [ Ca2+] i and mitochondria membrane potential of A549 cells were decreased, and relative mRNA level of Bad and MT-1A was up-regulated. Conclusions XP-16 has anticancer effect on A549 cells through apoptosis, which might be associated with decreasing intracellular Ca2+ concentration and mitochondria membrane poten-tial. Up-regulation of MT-1A expression might be the result of decreased [ Ca2+] i .
