ABSTRACT
Cancer toxin is the key pathogenesis of malignant tumors. The basic principle of cancer treatment is “dispelling pathogen and resolving toxins， reinforcing healthy qi and reinforcing the foundation”. As one of the “eight methods of anticancer and detoxification”， the counteracting toxin with toxin therapy is a commonly used clinical treatment of malignant tumors. This paper discussed the method of counteracting toxin with toxin and its application in the prevention and treatment of malignant tumors from the aspects of history tracing， academic connotation， application principles and clinical application. Toxic Chinese medicinals with anticancer function are required to eliminate cancer toxins based on the principles of excessive cancer toxicity and plentiful healthy qi， as well as in accordance with the various stages and classifications of tumors， thereby improving the theoretical connotation of the method of counteracting toxin with toxin， and promoting the popularization and application of the pathogenesis theory of cancer toxin in the prevention and treatment of malignant tumors.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the role and influence of physiological loading and overloading on microgravity-induced osteoporosis,so as to find a reliable way to prevent or treat related-orthopedic disorders in astronauts induced by long-time space activity.Metbods The microgravity environment in space was simulated by tail-suspension experiment,then the osteoporosis models of mice were built.A total of 32 C57BL/6J mice were randomly and evenly separated into four groups:normal group (normal),tail-suspension group (TS),physiological loading group (loading) and overloading group (overloading).Periodic dynamic mechanical load was applied on the left tibia in loading group and overloading group during tail-suspension test.After four weeks,tibial mechanical properties,micro-parameters of bone trabecular,biochemical indices and osteogenesis-related gene expression in each group were compared and analyzed.Results A great loss of tibial cancellous bone,significantly lower tibial biomechanical expression,serious damage of microstructure and weaker osteogenic activity were found in tail-suspended mice as compared with those of normal group.Physiological loading could clearly improve mechanical properties of bones,microstructure of bone trabecular,osteogenic activity and relative gene expression (P ＜ 0.05).Overloading could also improve the condition of microgravity-induced osteoporosis,but the effect was not obvious (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Tail-suspension can successfully simulate microgravity environment and duplicate osteoporosis model.Physiological loading can effectively prevent the emergence and development of microgravity-induced osteoporosis,while overloading can also counter microgravity-induced osteoporosis,but the results have no significant differences.

ABSTRACT
The concentration of plasma glucose, glucagon (GG), ACTH, cortisol (F), growth hormone (GH), prolactin (PRL), TSH, T3, T4, urinary catechola'mine (CA) and 3-methoxy-4-hydroxymandelic acid (VMA) were measured during the period of diabetic ketosis and 10 days after correction of ketosis in 10 male patients with type I diabetes (IDDM). It was showed that the levels of plasma GG, ACTH, F, and urinary CA were remarkably increased during the ketosis (P
