- Abstract
This study investigated the effect of trametenolic acid(TA) on the migration and invasion of human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2.2.15 cells by using Ras homolog gene family member C(RhoC) as the target and probed into the mechanism, aiming to provide a basis for the utilization of TA. The methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT) assay was employed to examine the proliferation of HepG2.2.15 cells exposed to TA, and scratch and Transwell assays to examine the cell migration and invasion. The pull down assay was employed to determine the impact of TA on RhoC GTPase activity. Western blot was employed to measure the effect of TA on the transport of RhoC from cytoplasm to cell membrane and the expression of RhoC/Rho-associated kinase 1(ROCK1)/myosin light chain(MLC)/matrix metalloprotease 2(MMP2)/MMP9 pathway-related proteins. RhoC was over-expressed by transient transfection of pcDNA3.1-RhoC. The changes of F-actin in the cytoskeleton were detected by Laser confocal microscopy. In addition, the changes of cell migration and invasion, expression of proteins in the RhoC/ROCK1/MLC/MMP2/MMP9 pathway, and RhoC GTPase activity were detected. The subcutaneously transplanted tumor model of BALB/c nude mice and the low-, medium-, and high-dose(40, 80, and 120 mg·kg~(-1), respectively) TA groups were established and sorafenib(20 mg·kg~(-1)) was used as the positive control. The tumor volume and weight in each group were measured, and the expression of related proteins in the tumor tissue was determined by Western blot. The results showed that TA inhibited the proliferation of HepG2.2.15 cells in a concentration-dependent manner, with the IC_(50) of 66.65 and 23.09 μmol·L~(-1) at the time points of 24 and 48 h, respectively. The drug administration groups had small tumors with low mass. The tumor inhibition rates of sorafenib and low-, medium-and high-dose TA were 62.23%, 26.48%, 55.45%, and 62.36%, respectively. TA reduced migrating and invading cells and inhibited RhoC protein expression and RhoC GTPase activity in a concentration-dependent manner, dramatically reducing RhoC and membrane-bound RhoC GTPase. The expression of ROCK1, MLC, p-MLC, MMP2, and MMP9 downstream of RhoC can be significantly inhibited by TA, as confirmed in both in vitro and in vivo experiments. After HepG2.2.15 cells were transfected with pcDNA3.1-RhoC to overexpress RhoC, TA down-regulated the protein levels of RhoC, ROCK1, MLC, p-MLC, MMP2, and MMP9 and decreased the activity of RhoC GTPase, with the inhibition level comparable to that before overexpression. In summary, TA can inhibit the migration and invasion of HepG2.2.15 cells. It can inhibit the RhoC/ROCK1/MLC/MMP2/MMP9 signaling pathway by suppressing RhoC GTPase activity and down-regulating RhoC expression. This study provides a new idea for the development of autophagy modulators targeting HSP90α to block the proliferation and inhibit the invasion and migration of hepatocellular carcinoma cells via multiple targets of active components in traditional Chinese medicines.

- Abstract
Objective: To investigate relationships between serum growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) and glycolipid metabolism in patients with metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). Methods: The current investigation was a cross-sectional study. A total of 333 patients from the Fengxian District Central Hospital were recruited into the study after physical examination from February 2020 to February 2021. There were 107 patients with MAFLD and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), including 54 males and 53 females with a mean age of (57±11) years. There were 65 patients with simple MAFLD only, including 32 men and 33 women with a mean age of (49±5) years. There were 105 patients with T2DM only, including 53 men and 52 women, with a mean age of (56±10) years. A control group of 56 people without MAFLD or diabetes,28 male, 28 female, mean age (48±6) years, was also included in the study. Serum GDF15 was measured via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. IBM SPSS 26.0 was used for statistical analysis. Logistic regression was used to evaluate relationships between GDF15 and metabolic abnormalities in MAFLD patients. Results: GDF15 progressively increased in the control [385 (296, 484) ng/L], nonobese MAFLD [388 (319, 435) ng/L], obese MAFLD [426 (354, 527) ng/L], T2DM [664 (483, 900) ng/L], and MAFLD+T2DM groups [770 (560, 1 074) ng/L]( H =113.82, P =0.001). There was no significant difference in serum GDF15 between the simple MAFLD [406 (339, 524) ng/L] and control group ( U =1 505.50, P =0.132). GDF15 was significantly higher in the MAFLD+T2DM group than in the T2DM-only group ( U =4 573.50, P =0.019). In logistic regression analysis increased GDF15 was associated with increased risks of simple MAFLD [odds ratio ( OR )=2.202], T2DM ( OR =29.656), and MAFLD+T2DM( OR =58.197). In patients with MAFLD, serum GDF15 was higher in the FIB4 index>1.45 group [773 (534, 1 162) ng/L] than in the FIB4 index<1.45 group [527 (389, 787) ng/L] ( U =1 709.50, P <0.001). Increased GDF15 was associated with an increased risk of advanced liver fibrosis ( OR =2.388). Conclusion: In patients with simple MAFLD, GDF15 level was not significantly higher than in the control group. In the T2DM-only group and the MAFLD+T2DM group GDF15 was significantly higher than in the control group. Increased serum GDF15 was associated with increased risk and severity of MAFLD complicated with abnormal glucose and lipid metabolism. High GDF15 increased the risk of advanced fibrosis in MAFLD patients.

- Abstract
Objective: Surgical operation is the main treatment for advanced adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction (AEG). Due to its special anatomic location and unique lymph node reflux mode, the surgical treatment of Siewert II AEG is controversial. Lower mediastinal lymph node dissection is one of the most controversial points and a standard technique has not yet been established. This study is aim to explore the safety and feasibility of five-step maneuver of transthoracic single-port assisted laparoscopic lower mediastinal lymph node dissection for Siewert type II AEG. Methods: A descriptive case series study was conducted. The intraoperative and postoperative data of 25 patients with Siewert type II AEG who underwent five-step maneuver of transthoracic single-port assisted laparoscopic lower mediastinal lymph node dissection in Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2019 to April 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Five-step maneuver was as follows: In the first step, the subcardiac sac was exposed; the right pulmonary ligament lymph nodes and the anterior thoracic paraaortic lymph nodes were dissected cranial to inferior pericardium, left to left edge of thoracic aorta. In the second step, the left diaphragm was opened, and a 12 mm trocar was placed through the 6-7 rib in the left anterior axillary line. The supra-diaphragmatic nodes were dissected through the thoracic operation hole. In the third step, the left inferior pulmonary ligament was severed. The anterior fascia of thoracic aorta was incised to join the anterior space of thoracic aorta formed in the first step and then the lymphatic tissue was dissected upward until the exposure of left inferior pulmonary vein. In the fourth step, the posterior pericardium was denuded retrogradely from ventral side to oral side to the level of left inferior pulmonary vein, right to right pleura, and then the right pulmonary ligament lymph nodes were completely removed. In the fifth step, the esophagus was denuded, and the esophagus was transected 5 cm above the tumor using a linear stapler to complete the dissection of lower thoracic paraesophageal lymph nodes. Results: Operations were successfully completed in 25 patients without conversion, intra-operative complication and perioperative death. Total gastrectomy was performed in 19 cases and proximal gastrectomy in 6 cases. The mean operative time was (268.7±85.6) minutes, the mean estimated blood loss was (90.4±44.2) ml, the mean time of lower mediastinal lymph node dissection was (38.6±10.3) minutes, and the mean harvested number of lower mediastinal lymph node was 5.9±2.9. The length of esophageal invasion was >2 cm in 7 cases and ≤ 2 cm in 18 cases. Eight patients (33.0%) had lower mediastinal lymph node metastasis, including 3 cases with esophageal invasion >2 cm and 5 cases with esophageal invasion ≤ 2 cm. The mean time to postoperative first flatus was (5.5±3.1) days. The average time of postoperative thoracic drainage was (5.9±2.9) days. The mean hospital stay was (9.7±3.1) days. Two patients (8.0%) developed postoperative grade IIIa complications according to the Clavien-Dindo classification, including 1 case of pancreatic fistula and 1 case of pleural effusion, both of whom were cured by puncture drainage. Conclusions: Five-step maneuver of transthoracic single-port assisted laparoscopic lower mediastinal lymph nodes dissection for Siewert type II AEG is safe and feasible. Which can ensure sufficient lower mediastinal lymph node dissection to the level of left inferior pulmonary vein.

- Abstract
Objective: To investigate the current status of the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary cryptococcosis in respiratory medicine and improve the understanding of the clinical characteristics of HIV-negative pulmonary cryptococcosis in China. Methods: A prospective multi-center open cohort study was designed to screen for pulmonary cryptococcosis in the general wards and intensive care units of the Department of Respiratory Diseases in 22 hospitals. The HIV-negative patients with positive cryptococcal etiological diagnosis based on smear culture, antigen detection and histopathology were enrolled in the study. The clinical data of enrolled patients were collected and analyzed. Results: A total of 457 cases of pulmonary cryptococcosis were enrolled, among which 3.28% (15/457) were disseminated infections. The case fatality rate was 0.88% (4/457). The majority of the cases were diagnosed by histopathological examinations (74.40%, 340/457) and cryptococcus antigen detection (37.64%, 172/457). Patients with pulmonary cryptococcosis accounted for 2.04‰ (457/223 748) of the total hospitalized patients in the Department of Respiratory Diseases during the same period, and the ratio was the highest in south and east China. Meanwhile, 70.24% (321/457) of the patients had no underlying diseases, while 87.75% (401/457) were found to have immunocompetent status. Cough and expectoration were the most common clinical symptoms in patients with pulmonary cryptococcosis. However, 25.16% (115/457) of the patients had no clinical symptom or physical signs. In terms of imaging features on pulmonary CT, multiple pulmonary lesions were more common than isolated lesions, and there were more subpleural lesions than perihilar or medial lesions. Morphologically, most of the lesions were middle-sized nodules (1-5 cm) or small-sized nodules (3 mm to 1 cm). The sensitivity of serum cryptococcus antigen test was 71.99% (203/282). Moreover, antigen-positive patients differed from antigen-negative patients in terms of basic immune status, clinical symptoms, imaging features and infection types. Meanwhile, immunocompromised patients differed from immunocompetent patients in terms of clinical symptoms, physical signs, infection-related inflammation indicator levels, imaging features, serum cryptococcus antigen positive rate and prognosis. Conclusions: The majority of cases of HIV-negative pulmonary cryptococcosis in China had no underlying disease or immunocompromised status, and the overrall prognosis was favorable. However, early diagnosis of HIV-negative pulmonary cryptococcosis remains challenging due to the complicated manifestations of the disease.

- Abstract
Objective: To investigate the association between the whole blood riboflavin level and the occurrence, development and prognosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) in China. Methods: From March 2014 to September 2018, ESCC patients from three hospitals (the Affiliated Hospital of Medical College of Shantou University, Shantou Central Hospital in Southern Chaoshan area and First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in Northern Taihang Mountain) were selected as a case group; non-esophageal patients who had a physical examination were selected as a control group. The case and control group were paired by age (±5 years) and a 1:1 ration. A total of 1 528 subjects were enrolled including 764 patients in the case group and 764 patients in the control group. About 3-5 ml venous blood samples were collected, and the erythrocyte glutathione reductase activity coefficient (GRAC) was measured to assess the whole blood riboflavin level. A multivariate conditional logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between the GRAC and the risk of ESCC. The association between the GRAC and the prognosis of ESCC was analyzed by using Cox proportional risk regression model based on 288 patients with complete survival data. They were divided into two groups, the high GRAC group (GRAC≥7.87) group and the low GRAC group (GRAC<7.87) according to the strongest correlation between the total survival time, survival outcome and GRAC (GRAC=7.87). Results: Among the 1 528 patients, 958 patients were from Southern Chaoshan area, including 479 patients in the case group with an average age about (59.90±9.34) years and 479 patients in the control group with an average age about (59.55±8.77) years. Other 570 patients were from Northern Taihang Mountain area, including 285 patients in the case group with an average age (58.39±5.19) years and 285 patients in the control group with an average age about (58.74±4.57) years. The multivariate conditional logistic regression showed that the OR (95 %CI ) of the GRAC and the risk of ESCC was 1.009 (0.998-1.019). The Cox proportional hazard regression model analysis showed that the HR (95 %CI ) of the high GRAC group was 1.712 (1.034-2.824) compared with the low GRAC group in the 50-70 years group. Conclusion: The whole blood riboflavin level might not be associated with the occurrence of ESCC. The high whole blood riboflavin level would be more beneficial to the prognosis of ESCC patients aged 50-70 years.

- Abstract
A greenhouse pot experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of different concentrations of lanthanum (0 mg·kg
-1 , 50 mg·kg-1 , 200 mg·kg-1 and 800 mg·kg-1 ) on growth, nutrient uptake, C:N:P stoichiometry, and La and Pb uptake by maize ( Zea mays L.) under moderate lead stress (200 mg·kg-1 ) and evaluate the interaction of rare earth elements and heavy metals in the soil-plant system. The aim was to provide basic data and a theoretical basis for the remediation of rare earth element and heavy metal-co-contaminated soils in a rare earths mining area. The results indicate that the concentrations of CH3 COONH4 -EDTA-extractable La and Pb significantly increase and decrease, respectively, with increasing La concentrations of the soils. The shoot dry weights of maize significantly decreases by 17.90% to 81.17% and the root to shoot ratio of maize significantly increases by 21.74% to 86.96% with increasing La concentrations of the soils. With increasing La concentrations in soils, the root P contents of maize significantly decrease by 19.16% to 89.68%. The shoot P and N contents significantly decrease by 65.51% to 91.98% and 48.27% to 76.58%, respectively, when the exogenous application of La is 200 mg·kg-1 and 800 mg·kg-1 , respectively. The increasing La concentrations in soils significantly increase the C:P and N:P ratios and shoot and root La concentrations of maize. The shoot and root Pb concentrations of maize significantly increase by 52.61% to 99.01% and 15.99% to 44.34%, respectively, with increasing La concentrations. Overall, the increasing La concentrations in soils significantly decrease the K, Ca, and Mg contents of maize. The results demonstrate that the presence of rare earth elements aggravates the phytotoxicity of heavy metals to plant and ecological risks. Further research should focus on the effects and mechanisms of rare earth elements on the heavy metal uptake by plants.- Published

- Abstract
Objective: To investigate whether the assisted reproductive techniques (ART) outcomes can be improved by using magnetic-activated cell sorting combined isolate density gradient centrifugation (MACS-DGC), and to compare the results with the conventional isolate density gradient centrifugation (DGC) method. Methods: In the period from January to December 2014, patients who attended the andrology laboratory for sperm DNA fragmentation analysis and underwent the in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) treatment were divided into 3 groups, and each group has two subgroups according to the way of fertilization : in vitro fertilization (IVF) as subgroup 1 and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) as subgroup 2. Group A (A1, A2 ): DNA fragmentation index(DFI)≥20 and using MACs; Group B (B1, B2): DFI≥20 and using isolate method; Group C (C1, C2): DFI<20 and using isolate method. The fertilization rate, good-quality embryos, implantation rate, pregnancy rate and live-birth rate of each group were analyzed. Results: Similar results were obtained among groups for all the parameters compared: On IVF cycles no significant difference was observed in fertilization rate, percentage of good-quality embryos on day 3, implantation rate, positive beta-hCG tests, and live-birth rate among the three subgroups (A1 vs B1 vs C1). Between the subgroups of ICSI cycles (A2 vs B2 vs C2) the percentage of high-quality embryos, pregnancy rate, implantation rate and live-birth rate were all significantly higher in the MACS-DGC (A2) group compared to DGC alone (B2). Conclusion: Based on the results, MACS as a part of sperm preparation technique will not improve sperm fertilizing potential, embryos quality, implantation rate, pregnancy rate or live-birth rate of IVF, but it may help select the most fertile sperm and to improve clinical outcomes of ICSI.

- Abstract
Objective: To study the effects of acupuncture combined with rat nerve growth factor (NGF) on the cerebral palsy infant rats and the proteins which associated with growth, apoptosis and metabolism., Methods: Seventy infant rats were selected, Fifty infant rats of which were made the cerebral palsy infant model by the ligation of unilateral carotid artery for cerebral ischemia and oxygen-deficient environment, then the 30 model rats were randomly divided into a model group, a NGF group and a combined group, 10 rats in each group. Twenty infant rats were used in the sham-operated group and the blank control group, 10 rats in each group. The treatment was not given in the blank control group. The rats in the sham-operated group were cut the neck skin and separated the left carotid artery, and then sutured and disinfected the wound. The intraperitoneal injection of NGF (2000 U•kg
-1 •d-1 ) was used in the NGF group. Based on the injection in the NGF group, acupuncture was used in the combined group, once a day, and the acupoints were "Baihui" (GV 20), left "nieⅠ" (extra), "Dazhui" (GV 14), "Jizhong" (extra), "Quchi" (LI 11), "Yongquan" (KI 1), "Hegu" (LI 4), "Zhoujie" (extra) and "Xiqianxue" (extra). The same volume of saline was intraperitoneally injected in the model group for continuous 14 days. Neurobehavioral ability score was evaluated after treatment. TUNEL were conducted to detect the brain cell apoptosis rate and the expressions of apoptosis associated gene Bax, Bcl-2 and Casp3 were detected by PCR. The level of nerve growth associated protein (GAP-43) and energy metabolism-related protein monocarboxylate transporter protien 1(MCT 1) were detected by Western blot., Results: After intervention, the neurobehavioral ability of baby rats in the blank control and sham-operated group was normal, but there was various degrees of abnormity in the model group, NGF group and combined group. The scores of neurobehavioral ability of the combined group and NGF group were better than those of the model control (all P <0.05), and the scores in the combined group was better than those in the NGF group (all P <0.05). The left brain cell apoptosis rate, expressions of Bax and Casp3 in the combined group and NGF group were lower and the expressions of Bcl-2 were higher than those of the model group (all P <0.05), with more obvious results of Bax and Gasp3 in the combined group than those in the NGF group (all P <0.05). The protein levels of GAP-43 and MCT 1 in the combined group and NGF group were higher than those in the model group (all P <0.05), with higher expressions in the combined group compared with those in the NGF group (both P <0.05)., Conclusion: Acupuncture combined with NGF could improve the neurobehavioral ability of cerebral palsy infant rats, inhibit the nerve cell apoptosis and improve the brain tissue injure and energy metabolism by up-regulating the expressions of GAP-43 and MCT 1.- Published

- Abstract
A simple, sensitive, scientific and reproducible liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric method was developed to determine 3-methylquinoxaline-2-carboxylic acid (MQCA) of olaquindox marker residue in chicken muscle tissues. The chickens were administered orally with olaquindox and used as positive samples. The approaches, enzyme, acid, and base hydrolysis, were adopted to digest MQCA in the medicated chicken muscles. The amounts of MQCA in the medicated chicken were determined and compared using different hydrolysis approaches. It was shown that the highest amount of MQCA was obtained for the base hydrolysis approach. Here, the sample was hydrolyzed with 1.0 mol/L NaOH solution, defatted with n -hexane, and purified with a mixed anion-exchange solid-phase extraction cartridge. The chromatographic separation was performed on a reversed-phase C
18 column and detected using mass spectrometry in selected reaction monitoring mode. The analyte showed good linearity in the range 1.0-100 μg/L. The correlation coefficient ( r2 ) was greater than 0.99. The limit of detection of the proposed method was 0.4 μg/kg. At the three spiked levels of 1.0, 5.0 and 50.0 μg/kg, the average recoveries of MQCA were in range 71.7%-82.4% obtained using external standard calibration, and in range 96.3%-103.7% for internal standard calibration, with relative standard deviations below 6.0%. The proposed method is suitable for routinely monitoring of MQCA residues in animal-derived foods.- Published

- Abstract
Objective: To study the hearing status and analyze the related influencing factors in noise - exposed workers in an automobile manufacture enterprise, and put forward suggestions for prevention of noise - induced hearing loss. Methods: Noise exposure level testing, audiometry testing and questionnaires were performed for noise exposed workers in the automobile manufacture enterprise. To analyze the relationship between different factors and noise - induced hearing loss by cumulative noise exposure(CNE) calculated 8 - hour continuous A - weighted equivalent noise level and seniority. Results: The detection rate of hearing loss in noise - exposed workers was 22.8%. The noise exposure intensity of stamping workshop is higher than other workshop, and the hearing loss detection rate of stamping workshop workers is higher than other workshop workers. The detection rate of hearing loss has significant difference in L(Aeq·8 h), seniority, CNE, age, high temperature and wearing earplugs ( P <0.05). The results of logistic regression analysis showed that CNE, age and high - temperature were risk factors for noise - induced hearing loss ( P <0.05 and OR >1) and there was an increasing tendency of hearing loss with increase in length of service and CNE, while using of earplugs was a protective factor ( P <0.05 and OR <1). With the increase of CNE, the incidence of hearing loss is the rising trend. Conclusion: It is suggested to strengthen the noise control and individual protection and improve the high - temperature working environment, which plays an important role in reducing the occurrence of noise - induced hearing loss.

- Abstract
A greenhouse pot experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi Claroideoglomus etunicatum (CE) and Rhizophagus intraradices (RI) on AM colonization rate, biomass, nutrient uptake, C:N:P stoichiometry, and the uptake and transport of lanthanum (La) and lead (Pb) by maize ( Zea mays L.) grown in La-and Pb-contaminated soils (combined La-Pb concentrations of 50, 200, and 800 mg·kg
-1 ). The aim was to provide a scientific basis for the remediation of soils contaminated by rare earth elements and heavy metals. The results indicated that symbiotic associations were successfully established between the two isolates and maize, and the average AM colonization rate ranged from 26.7% to 95.8%. The increasing concentrations of La and Pb in soils significantly decreased the mycorrhizal colonization rate, biomass, and mineral nutrition concentrations of the maize, and significantly increased C:P and N:P ratios and the concentrations of La and Pb in shoots and roots of maize. The shoot and root dry weights of maize were significantly increased by 17.8%-158.9% with two AM fungi inoculations, while the P concentration of shoots and roots of the maize were significantly increased by 24.5%-153.8%. Inoculation with two AM fungi decreased the C:P and N:P ratios, consistent with the growth rate hypothesis. With AM fungi inoculation in three types of La-Pb co-contaminated soils, root Pb concentrations of the maize significantly increased by 51.3%-67.7%; shoot Pb concentrations of the maize significantly decreased by 16.0%-67.7%; and the transport rate of Pb from root to shoot of the maize decreased by 31.5%-54.7%. Meanwhile, inoculation with AM fungi significantly increased the shoot La concentrations in the maize grown in soils mildly contaminated with La-Pb, while it significantly decreased shoot La concentrations, increased root La concentrations of maize, and inhibited the transport of La from root to shoot of the maize grown in soils moderately contaminated with La-Pb, but had no significant effect in severely contaminated soils. The results showed that AM fungi had the potential to promote phytoremediation of soils contaminated with rare earth elements and heavy metals, with potential applications to revegetate such contaminated soil ecosystems.- Published

- Abstract
Aiming at the miniaturization requirement of shifted excitation Raman spectroscopy test system, a portable grating-coupled external cavity (EC) tunable semiconductor laser in Littrow configuration is designed and fabricated with a commercial 785 nm high-power laser diode as the gain device. By using a new wavelength tuning method, aiming to change the position of gain device relative to the collimating lens in the horizontal direction, a miniaturized device with the size of 140 mm×65 mm×50 mm is designed. Compared to the traditional wavelength tuning method which is to change the light incident angle by rotating the diffraction grating, this new tuning method reduces the translational distance of semiconductor gain device effectively, thus it is conductive to the fast and broad wavelength tuning of portable EC laser. The experimental results show that the EC laser has a wide wavelength tuning range. Under any injection current from 340 to 900 mA, a wavelength tuning range of more than 10 nm can be realized. Especially at 900 mA, good performance including a 11.67 nm-wavelength tuning range from 779.40 to 791.07 nm, a less than 0.2 nm-spectral linewidth, an up to 280 mW-output power, and a more than 25 dB-amplified spontaneous emission suppression ratio is presented, which fully meets the basic testing requirements of shifted excitation Raman spectroscopy. Moreover, 1.35 nm-electric wavelength tuning range is achieved by applying a mini-piezoelectric actuator. This indicates that the home-made 785 nm portable grating-coupled EC tunable semiconductor laser is suitable as the light source of portable shifted excitation Raman spectroscopy testing system to eliminate the fluorescence background of Raman spectrum.

- Abstract
Although the immigration of water molecule, and diffusion and traversing of oxygen can be prevented by the edible film prepared through sodium caseinate, which plays a good protection role for the food, the strong hydrophilicity makes its watertightness and mechanical properties become inferior. Because the toughness and water resistance of SC films can be enhanced by glycerol (G) as an additive, it is necessary to elucidate the interaction between G and SC through the spectral characteristics such as fluorescence spectra, infrared spectra and UV spectra. The results show that the fluorescence intensity of SC decreases due to the addition of G. The binding constant obtained by the double logarithmic regression curve analysis is 1. 127 x 10(3) L . mol-1 and the number of binding sites reaches 1. 161. It indicates that the weak chemical bond is primary between G and SC molecules; From IR the absorption peaks of SC are almost the same before and after adding G. However, there is a certain difference among their absorption intensities. It reveals that the secondary structure of SC is affected, β folding length decreases, α helix, random coil structure, β angle structure increases, and the intermolecular hydrogen bond is strengthened; From UV the peptide bond structure of SC is not changed after the addition of G, but the polymer with larger molecular weight, which is formed by non-covalent bond, makes the peak intensity decrease. The research gives the mode of G and SC from the molecular level.

- Abstract
Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the expression of ribonucleotide reductase subunit M1 (RRM1) protein and the efficacy of gemcitabine/cisplatin (GP) adjuvant chemotherapy in postoperative non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients., Methods: A total of 68 patients with NSCLC after radical surgery were included in this study. The expression of RRM1 protein in tumor specimens was assayed by streptavidin-peroxidase (SP) immunohistochemistry retrospectively. Correlation between the expression of RRM1 protein and the efficacy of GP chemotherapy was analyzed. Disease-free survival rate was taken as the main outcome measure., Results: Among the 68 patients, 31 cases had recurrence or metastasis. The expression rate of RRM1 was 54.4%. The 1-year and 3-year disease-free survival rates were 82.7% and 61.5% for patients with RRM1-negative expression, and 78.1% and 36.8% for patients with RRM1-posivive expression, respectively (P = 0.044). In the subgroup analysis of stage IB cases, the 1-year and 3-year disease-free survival rates were 100% and 82.3% for patients with RRM1-negative expression, and 84.5% and 24.6% for patients with RRM1-positive expression, respectively (P = 0.047). In the analysis of squamous cell carcinoma subgroup, the 1-year and 3-year disease-free survival rates were 92.3% and 83.7% for patients with RRM1-negative expression, and 83.1% and 43.9% for patients with RRM1-posivive expression, respectively (P = 0.005). Univariate analysis and multivariate analysis indicated that smoking history, pathological type, clinical stage and expression of RRM1 significantly influenced the therapeutic efficacy (P < 0.05)., Conclusions: RRM1 protein may be a valuable predictive factor for gemcitabine/cisplatin adjuvant chemotherapy in NSCLC patients.

- Abstract
Objective: To seek effective drugs inhibiting herpes simplex virus (HSV-2) with the signal pathway required by virus replication as the target spot., Method: HSV-2-induced Vero cytopathic effect was observed, and MTT method was adopted to detect call activity, in order to assess the antiviral capacity of freeze dried powder of aqueous extracts of Saururus chinensis (AESC). Western blot was used to check the effect of AESC on signal pathway induced by HSV-2 virus in HeLa cells., Result: AESC obviously inhibits the pathway activation of CPE induced by HSV-2 infection and NF-kappaB required for virus replication. The inhibition ratio of AESC freeze dried powder at 0.10, 0.03, 0.01 and 0.003 g x L(-1) were (70.68 +/- 3.39)%, (61.74 +/- 2.13)%, (39.31 +/- 1.10)% and (18.54 +/- 3.44)%, respectively. The IC50 was determined at (0.023 +/- 0.004) g x L(-1). The inhibition concentration of the positive control acyclovir was 0.001 g x L(-1) (5.0 x 10(-6) mol x L(-1)). The best administration time was from 2 h before infection to 6 h after infection. Western blot also showed that AESC can notably inhibit HSV-2-induced NF-kappaB nuclear transfer., Conclusion: AESC can inhibit HSV-2 virus replication, which is related to the pathway activation of NF-kappaB required for virus replication.

We analyzed the physiological characteristics of flocculation in yeast strains YSF1, YSF1b and YSF1d containing FLO1, FLO1b and FLO1d respectively., Results: YSF1b and YSF1d displayed almost the same level of Flo1-type flocculation as YSF1. However, flocculation of YSF1b and YSF1d, especially YSF1d was more tolerant to pH change and mannose concentration than strain YSF1., Conclusion: Tandem repeats regulate the function of flocculation protein. Deletion of repeated unite B or D, especially D increases the stability of flocculation protein.

- Abstract
The drug-loading system of DMF (dextran - magnetic layered double hydroxide - fluorouracil) was synthesized by "co-precipitation intercalated assembly - dextran composite in situ - solvent conversion" technology. The crystal-phase characteristic and slow-release performance of DMF were investigated through X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectrum (IR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermogravimetry (TG) and in vitro release experiment. The targeted transshipment and slow-release effect of DMF system were evaluated by in vivo animal experiment. It was showed that the XRD of DMF matched with R-sixtetragonum type layered double hydroxide and Fd-3m cubic type ferrite. IR test demonstrated that the DMF system was a supra-molecular complex consisted of Dextran (DET), magnetic layered double hydroxide (MLDH) and fluorouracil (FU) components. The two-level supra-molecular MLDH-FU presented six-edge lozenge TEM morphology, with layered characteristics. DET on the surface of DMF was capable of protecting the layered structure of MLDH-FU, improving particle dispersion properties, and strengthening the slow-release performance of the drug delivery system. The drug release model of DMF at pH 7.35 of PBS in vitro fit to the zero-order kinetics equation C = 1.1716 x 10(-5) + 4.4626 x 10(-7) t. The drug delivery system DMF could transport drugs principally to in vivo target organs with a local effect, targeted specificity, and excellent circulation transshipment performance. The pharmacokinetic process of DMF presented multi-peak phenomenon with peak attenuation and cyclic growth. The peaks appeared at 0.25, 1, 3, 5 and 9 d separately after dosing intervention. The first peak process of DMF accorded with a pharmacokinetic equation of C(FU) = 14.34 e(-0.530t) + 36.04 e(-0.321t) + 24.18 e(-0.96t), and presented the characteristic of slow absorption and fast elimination. As for subsequent peak processes, half-life increased, bioavailability increased, and plasma clearance decreased. The highest peak value of DMF was 1/37 of original value of FU, and the relative bioavailability was 419% to original FU.

- Abstract
This study was aimed to investigate the incidence of thrombosis in patients with primary thrombocytosis (PT) and its correlation with function changes of platelets, and to explore the effect of thromboxane A2 (TXA2) inhibitor-ozagrel sodium on platelet activity and its efficacy for prevention and treatment of thrombosis. The CD62P and PAC-1 levels on platelet surface were detected by flow cytometry; the levels of TXB2 (metabolic product of TXA2) and 6-keto-PGFIalpha (metabolic product of prostacyclin) were detected by FLISA. The function change of platelets and its correlation with thrombosis were observed and compared in PT patients with and without thrombosis. The results indicated that the TXB2, PAC-1 and CD62P level, and TXB2/6-keto-PGF1alpha ratio in PT patients with thrombosis were higher than those in PT patients without thrombosis before treatment with ozagrel sodium (p<0.01). After treatment with ozagrel sodium, the function indexes of platelets such as CD62P, PAC-1, TXB2 and TXB2/6-keto-PGF1alpha except 6-keto-PGF1alpha in PT patients with and without thrombosis decreased obviously (p<0.01), but there was no significant difference in TXB2, 6-keto-PGF1alpha and TXB2/6-keto-PGF1alpha levels between PT patients with and without thrombosis except CD62P and PAC-1. It is concluded that the multi-index of platelets in PT patients with thrombosis are higher than that in PT patients without thrombosis, the activation of platelet function is a high risk factor for thrombosis of PT patients. The ozagrel sodium can obviously reduce the platelet activation, decrease the production of TXA2 and ameliorate the TXB2/6-keto-PGF1alpha ratio. The ozagrel sodium not only possesses therapeutic effect, but also preventive efficacy for thrombosis.

- Abstract
Objective: To study the strategy and process of out-hospital emergency care of acute cardiovascular events., Methods: One hundred and eighty-three patients in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Baotou Medical College were prospectively studied. The patients were divided into two groups according to the different ways of out-hospital care, one group consisted of patients who received first-aid care after calling "120" (94 cases), another was self-aid group consisting of patients sent to hospital by relatives (89 cases). The proportion of persons with higher than high school education and better knowledge for emergency care of patients with heart disease in first-aid group was higher than self-aid group (50.0% vs. 29.2%, 83.0% vs. 60.7%, both P<0.05). When the patients were brought to the emergency room, they were all treated according to our standard procedure and then registered. All patients were followed up at the end of first and third month after illness., Results: Cardiovascular events were mainly myocardial infarction (61.7%) among 183 patients. There were statistically significant differences between two groups in self-aid response time, first disposal time and out-hospital rescuing time [(32.3+/-5.6) minutes vs. (89.6+/- 8.4) minutes, (47.3+/-7.3) minutes vs. (149.8+/-13.5) minutes, (61.7+/-8.3) minutes vs. [(149.8+/- 13.5) minutes, all P<0.01], but no difference was found in in-hospital rescuing time [(29.9+/-5.3) minutes vs. (31.1+/-4.5) minutes, P>0.05]. Morbidity rate was lower in first-aid group than self-aid group in 1st and 3rd month, respectively (2.1% vs. 9.0%, 4.2% vs. 12.4%, both P<0.05)., Conclusion: Excellent emergency system and procedure can shorten initial disposal time and out-hospital rescuing time, thus improve patients' prognosis. The education level and health knowledge of patients and their relatives directly affect their mode of arriving hospital and prognosis.

- Abstract
Tissue engineering has typically been such an approach that relies on isolation and culture of primary cells (seed cells), seeding these cells onto porous scaffolds, maintaining under static or flow condition (Bioreactor) for a period of time prior to implantation. However, experience of almost thirty years in this research field tells us that the typical tissue engineering approach relies on autologous cells, expensive and time consuming. Tissue engineering products do not function very well and are difficult to get FDA approval. In recent years biomaterial scientists created a new concept "Tissue Inducible Biomaterials". The concept is based on designing of microstructure of scaffolds, chemical modification and incorporation of bioactive molecule to scaffolds. Thus the scaffolds gain tissue induction activity, and will facilitate tissue regeneration and repair in vivo. The concepts of "In Vivo Tissue Engineering" and "Tissue Inducible Biomaterials" are been recognized by the Society, and are becoming the new approaches in tissue engineering: Based on the research of the related references within the past three years, the present paper summarized the strategy of tissue inducible biomaterials.

- Abstract
An energy transfer technique for 4-(2-pyridylazo) resorcinol (PAR)-vanadium(V) and acridine orange (AO) was studied, and the optimum conditions of energy transfer system were also experimented. It was found that in citrate-Na2 HPO4 buffer solution at pH = 5.5, energy transfers from AO to vanadium(V)-PAR complexes. A new method based on energy transfer fluorescence quenching for the determination of trace vanadium(V) with AO-PAR-V(V) was established. The equation of linear regression is deltaF = 165.4c+2.5, and the determination range of vanadium is 0.012-0.5 microg x mL(-1), with detection limit of 0.004 5 microg x mL(-1). The correlation coefficient is R = 0.998 5, and relative standard deviation is 0.6%. The fluorescence reaction is completed within 15 minutes, and relative fluorescence intensity remains unchanged for 2.5 hours. The influence of foreign ions on the determination of V (0.5 microg x mL(-1)) was examined, with a related error of 5%. The method has been used in the determination of trace vanadium in biological samples with the relative error of 6.98%, which meets the requirements of trace analysis.

- Abstract
To study the effect of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) on the absorption of buagafuran in ileum, the concentration of buagafuran in Caco-2 cells, rat averted intestinal sacs and recirculating perfusion were determined by UV-HPLC method. Verapamil and cyclospirin A (CsA) were used as P-gp inhibitors. The results showed that the transportation of buagafuran across Caco-2 monolayer showed vectorial manner. The permeation of buagafuran from apical (A) to basolateral (B) side was 11% and 24.8% from B to A side. Verapamil and CsA were found to increase the transport of buagafuran by 1.4 and 1.35 fold from A to B side and decrease by 71% and 75% from B to A side, respectively, compared with control. The uptake of buagafuran in Caco-2 cell was also enhanced by P-gp inhibitors, especially in low concentration of buagafuran. Ninety percent of buagafuran was absorbed after 90 min perfusion. Verapamil and CsA were found to improve the absorption of buagafuran at all time points, especially at 30 min (12.4% and 21.5%, respectively). During the incubation, only 14% of buagafuran left in rat averted intestinal sacs, while buagafuran levels were increased in both intestine homogenate and sacs by adding verapamil and CsA. The results indicated that buagafuran was one of the P-gp substrates based on the present study. The absorption of buagafuran can be blocked by P-gp, resulting in the enhancement of buagafuran metabolism in intestine. The poor bioavailability of buagafuran may be partially due to the effect of P-gp on its absorption and transportation in intestinal lumen.
