Hepatocellular carcinoma （HCC） is one of the most common malignant tumors with high incidence and mortality rates worldwide， which brings a huge burden to the physical and mental health and socio-economic life of patients. The adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase （AMPK） signaling pathway serves as the regulatory center of cellular energy metabolism and is closely associated with the biological activities of HCC cells， including autophagy， apoptosis， and angiogenesis， and it has become a hot topic in current cancer research. Traditional Chinese medicine drugs are abundant in natural components such as flavonoids， alkaloids， and phenols and have the characteristics of multiple targets， pathways， components， and hierarchies. By targeting the AMPK signaling pathway， these components can be used alone or in combination with conventional antitumor therapies to exert an anti-tumor effect on HCC from various aspects. This article reviews and summarizes the extracts of traditional Chinese medicine that target the AMPK signaling pathway for the prevention and treatment of HCC， in order to provide a theoretical basis and a reference for the clinical application of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of HCC and the development of related drugs.

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the anti-tumor effect on sequential injection of heterogeneic lymphocyte(HL)and autogeneic lymphocyte(AL). Methods The HL was prepared by using CC3HF1 mice as feeders. CB6F1 mice were used as recipients,and Hepa1-6 cells were inoculated into the recepients′groin subcutis. A cryoprecipitate was extracted from mouse plasma by freeze-thaw method to prepare fibrin Glue(FG);FG was combined with HL or AL to be FG-HL or FG-AL. The experimental treatment consisted of two stages. At first stage(15 d),FG-HL were injected on the surface of the tumor-bearing tissue of the recipients as the experimental group,and FG-phosphate buffer saline(FG-PBS)were injected on the surface of the tumor-bearing tissue of the rest recipients as the control group. The immunological factors such as tumor cell killing rate of the spleen lym-phocytes and numbers of lymphocytes,CD8 +T and NK in the two groups were detected,respectively. At later stage(10 d),a part of mice were randomly selected from the experimental and control groups,and the lymphocytes( AL) were used to form FG-AL,which were injected on the surface of tumor-bearing tissues in the rest of mice. Tumors in mice of the two groups were compared for tumor volume and tumor inhibition rate. Results The tumor cell killing rate of AL in the experimental group(26. 70 ± 7. 22) was signifi-cantly higher than that in the control group(5. 70 ± 2. 68)(P<0. 01). Numbers of mouse spleen lymphocytes,CD8 +T cells and NK cells were significantly higher than the corresponding values of the control group(P<0. 05). After the two-stage treatment,the aver-age tumor volume of the experimental group[(1.20 ±0.33)cm3]was significantly smaller than that of control group[(2.05 ±0.37) cm3](P<0. 01). The tumor inhibition rate in the experiment group was 41. 5% when compared to the control group. Conclusion Local injections of FG-HL followed by FG-AL can significantly inhibit the growth of transplanted tumor in mice;it is expected to become an anti-tumor biological therapy.

Objective To observe the fundus imaging characteristics of different stages of syphilitic posterior uveitis. Methods Retrospective cases series. Forty-six eyes of 32 patients with syphilitic posterior uveitis were included. There were 14 patients (16 eyes) and 18 patients (30 eyes) were assigned to acute stage group (with the course<2 months) and chronic stage group (with the course≥2 months) respectively. All eyes received the examination of indirect ophthalmoscopy, color fundus photography, fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) and optical coherence tomography (OCT). All patients received regular anti-syphilitic treatment. Color fundus photography and OCT were followed after treatment. The fundus imaging characteristics of different stages of syphilitic posterior uveitis were observed. Results Indirect ophthalmoscopy and fundus color photography showed that in the acute stage group, there were 3/16 eyes with optic disc edema;4/16 eyes with a yellowish, placoid lesion involving the macular. There were only some pigment alterations on the fundus after treatment. In the chronic stage group, there were 4/30 eyes with optic disc hyperemia, 3/30 eyes with cystoid macular edema. After treatment, the optic hyperemia vanished gradually, but there were still some pigment alterations. The FFA images of two groups showed various vascular leakages. In the chronic stage group, patients also showed hyper-fluorescence with cystoid macular edema. The patients with course 2–3 years have more transmitted fluorescence on FFA. OCT showed that all eyes in the acute stage group had lost the ellipsoid zone, with irregular granular reflectivity of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) layer, 6 eyes with subretinal fluid in the macular. After treatment, the ellipsoid zone and RPE layer structure recovered gradually. In the chronic stage group, all eyes showed widespread loss of the ellipsoid zone, pigment migration and (or) cystoid macular edema. After treatment, the ellipsoid zone showed partial recovery. The outer ellipsoid zone was still discontinuous in patients with long duration. Conclusions Syphilitic posterior uveitis patients generally had normal fundus, but some cases had a yellowish, placoid lesion involving the macular. FFA showed various vascular leakages, and the chronic stage group showed more transmitted fluorescence. The major OCT change was loss of the ellipsoid zone or with subretinal fluid. After treatment, fundus showed no abnormal manifestations except some pigment alterations;the ellipsoid zone structure recovered gradually in acute stage eyes, partially recovered in chronic stage eyes.
