Objective:To explore the effect and possible mechanism of Zexie Tang(ZXT)regulate the balance of M1/M2 polarization in macrophage cells.Methods:Lipid metabolism disorder mouse model was induced by Western diet(WD)in vivo,RAW264.7 cell M1/M2 macrophage model was induced by LPS/IL-4 in vitro,set up blank group,model group and ZXT group.The flu-orescence intensity of M1 and M2 macrophage markers in adipose tissue and RAW264.7 cells was observed by immunofluorescence staining;protein levels of p-AKT,AKT and COX-2 were measured by Western blot;levels of macrophage marker gene mRNAs of M1 and M2 were analysed by qPCR;IL-1β and IL-10 were measured by ELISA;content of NO was detected by Griess;binding of active components of Alismatis Rhizoma and Atractylodes Macrocephala with PI3K protein was analyzed by Docking.Results:Compared with WD group,expression of CD11c was significantly decreased in ZXT group,while expression of CD206 was significantly up-regulated;ZXT reversed LPS-induced increased in CD80 expression,down-regulated mRNA levels of M1 macrophage marker gene iNOS,etc,decreased the expression of COX-2 protein,and inhibited the secretion of IL-1β(P<0.001);ZXT promoted IL-4-induced CD206 expression,up-regulation of M2 macrophage marker gene Arg-1 and other mRNAs levels and secretion of IL-10;ZXT reversed the LPS-induced increased in NO release;p-AKT/AKT protein level increased in vivo and in vitro after ZXT administration;Docking re-sults show that many active ingredients in Alismatis Rhizoma and Atractylodes Macrocephala could form hydrogen bonds stably with PI3K protein.Conclusion:ZXT regulates the M1/M2 polarization balance of macrophages,and its mechanism may be related to the regulation of PI3K/AKT pathway.

Objective To learn the command of basic theories, basic knowledge and basic skills, as well as strict requirement, strict attitude and strict behavior(three basics and three strictness)of clinicians at secondary and above public hospitals in Chongqing. Methods In this study, the examination scores of 1 650 clinicians from 55 such hospitals were assessed in terms of their three basics and three strictness performance during November 9-11 of 2016. The data were analyzed with t test and descriptive statistics. Results The theory scoring and skill scoring of all the clinicians averaged 61.25 ± 0.72 and 68.19 ± 21.12 respectively. Theory scoring and skill scoring of tertiary hospital clinicians were significantly higher than those at secondary(P<0.05). The skill scoring of teaching hospital clinicians averaged 74.87 ± 20.67, higher than those at non-teaching hospitals(67.38 ± 21.07, P=0.045). Conclusions The basic medical quality lacks due attention by medical institutions at all levels, and the training and assessment of clinicians on three basics and three strictness fall far behind. The clinicians rely heavily on large medical equipments for their diagnoses, neglecting most basic diagnostic skills. Basic medical quality of the city can only be enhanced by strengthening the training and assessment of three basics and three strictness for clinicians.

10.Liposomes delivery system and liposomal oxaliplatin for the treatment of colorectal cancer
Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery 2013;(1):78-80
Oxaliplatin is effective for the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer,but its application is restricted because of the dose-limiting toxicity.As drug carriers,liposomes are featured with delay release,lesion targeting and they could decrease the side effects of drugs.Active targeting modification of the liposome can change the biological distribution of the anticancer drugs,reduce or reverse multidrug resistance of tumor cells and enhance the effect of anti-tumor drugs.With these characteristics mentioned above,lipsomes containing oxaliplatin may play an important role in the treatment of colorectal cancer.
