The effect of Fufangkushen on gastric cancer cell killing by lines SGC-7901 human γδT cell

Objective To explore the effect of Fufangkushen on gastric cancer cell killing by human γδT cells. Methods Isopentenyl pyrophosphate method was used to amplify human peripheral blood γδT cells in vitro. Fufangkushen at various concentrations was used to induce γδT cells and gastric cancer cell lines SGC-7901 for 24 hours, MTr assays was used to detect inhibitory effect of Fufangkushen on these cell lines, LDH assays was used to measure the cytotoxic activity of γδT cells, and flow cytometry was used to detect apoptosis of γδT cells and SGC-7901 before and after the treatment. Results Ten days after cultivation, proliferation ra-tio of γδT cells increased from 4.21% to 70.35% and CD44 was up to 94.0%. Inhibitory rate of Fufangkush-en on SGC-7901 at various concentrations was significantly higher than that on γδT cells (22.3% vs-22.4%, P<0.05). The negative inhibitory ratio on γδT cells showed a dose-dependent manner with Fufangkushen's concentrations ranging from 1/5 to 1/400. γδT cells cytotoxic activity to SGC-7901 induced by Fufangkushen for 24 h was higher than control group, (83.6% vs 71.2%, P<0.05). Apoptotic rate was significantly lower in γδT cells than in SGC-7901 (4.64% vs49.23%, P<0.05). Conclusion Fufangkushen, within routine concentration ranges, can promote γδT cells' proliferation, inhibit tumor cell growth and enhance γδT cells' cytotoxic activity. This may be beneficial to tumor adoptive immunotherapy and provide evidence for the appli-cation of Fufangkushen in the treatment of tumors.

Lumican基因在大肠癌中的表达及其预后的关系

Objective To investigate the expression of Lumican in human colorectal cancer tissues and normal colorectal tissues, and its relationship with biological behavior and survival rate. Methods By using immunohistochemistry, we studied the Lumican expression patterns in 205 cases of colorectal cancers with rarious clinico-pathologic characteristics, and 50 normal colorectal tissues specimens. The relationship of Lumican expression with the biological behavior and survival of patients was evaluated. Results The expression rate of Lumican in normal colorectal tissues was 12.0%(6/50), and their expression was weaker expression. In sharp contrast, Lumican expression rate in colorectal cancer lesions was 75.61%(155/205). Lumican protein expression was closely related to the location of tumor, the depth of tumor invasion and histological types(x2 =16. 201, P = 0. 013;x2 = 9. 506, P = 0. 029), but not related to the number of metastatic lymph nodes and stage (x2 = 15. 457, P = 0. 079;x2 = 1. 887,P = 0. 596). The medium survival time in patients who had a tumor with negative, weak, postive and strong Lumican expression was 64.9、56.6、41.5 and 36.4 months, respectively (x2 =35. 066,P =0.000). Conclusion Normal and malignant colorectal tissues have unique Lumican expression patterns.Lumican might be served as an independent prognostic marker.

Level of functioning of siblings and parents of probands of varying degrees of retardation

A further analysis of already published data supports the position that retardates of low ability level less frequently have retarded siblings, retarded parents, and parents low in occupational level than do retardates higher in ability level. The analysis supports the position that there are two types of retarded individuals, persons retarded as a result of gene or chromosomal anomalies, brain injury, etc., who more frequently occur in the lower-level retardate group, and persons whose retardation represents polygenic segregation, who more frequently occur in the higher-level group.     

Modes of Inheritance of Errors of Refraction

Eighteen families in which both parents had refractions within the range of +4·0 D to −4·0 D and axial lengths seen in emmetropia (22·3-26·0 mm) showed coefficients of correlation of the order 0·5 indicative of polygenic inheritance. Such coefficients were seen for axial length (0·407) and for the cornea (0·487), but not for the lens (which is known to be yoked to the axial length). No such coefficients were seen in 19 families in which one of the parents had axial length outside the emmetropic range (nine families with long axes and 10 with short axes).

The pattern of polygenic inheritance for emmetropia (completely correlated optical components) and errors of refraction up to 4·0 D (inadequately correlated components: correlation ametropia) follows that seen in stature and other measurable characters. In contrast the high refractive errors with their abnormal axial lengths (component ametropia) are—like the extremes in stature—pathological anomalies with monofactorial inheritance.

     

Aspects of the problem of direct introduction of Standards of International Organizations

Editorial note. This article is published as part of a discussion. Particular issues of the article are disputable. First of all, this concerns the so-called “folder” method of introduction of international standards for medical devices to domestic medical practice (i.e., by direct translation of the standards and their publication as standardizing documents). Nevertheless, at least one of the problems, the problem of coordination between domestic state standards for medical devices and international recommendations of ISO and IEC, is undoubtedly of topical importance. Advancement of new health service legislation which is to be approved by law-makers will definitely introduce corrections into the present situation. The Editorial Board of Meditsinskaya Tekhnika believes this article will lessen these problems and to be welcomed by readers.
