RESUMEN
With serious environmental problems and the aging of population， the incidence of cancers worldwide has increased dramatically. For modern medicine， cancer is an incurable malignant disease with a high metastasis rate and strong cell proliferation and invasion ability. At present， clinical anti-cancer therapies mainly include chemotherapy and radiotherapy， but most chemotherapy drugs can cause serious side effects. Therefore， Chinese medicine with high safety has been widely used in anti-cancer treatment， which can inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells， improve the quality of life， and prolong life. Ligustrazine is a pyrazine alkaloid isolated and purified from Chuanxiong Rhizoma， which has pharmacological effects， such as anti-fibrosis， anti-oxidation， and anti-tumor. In recent years， ligustrazine， as an index active component of Chuanxiong Rhizoma alkaloids， has gradually become one of the hot spots in clinical medical research due to its pharmacological actions， and its anti-tumor effect has attracted more attention from researchers. The present study mainly investigated the anti-cancer effect of ligustrazine from the induction of tumor cell apoptosis and autophagy， inhibition of cell proliferation and migration， reversal of multidrug resistance of cancer cells， and inhibition of angiogenesis， and the anti-tumor efficacy was observed in various malignancies such as gastric cancer， lung cancer， rectal cancer， bladder cancer， breast cancer， and ovarian cancer. In addition， ligustrazine can be combined with cisplatin， paclitaxel， podophyllotoxin， chalcone， curcumin， and other drugs to exert an anti-tumor effect. This study conducted a literature review based on the anti-tumor mechanism of ligustrazine to provide a reference for the treatment of clinical malignancies.
RESUMEN
s:Apoptosis, also known as programmed cell death, is a gene controlled active cell suicide process in order to maintain balance of organisms. Apoptosis is mainly mediated through three signal pathways, including the endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, and death receptor. As a kind of naphthoquinone compounds and one of the main active ingredients of Lithospermum, shikonin has many biological activities, and its anti-cancer research is recent hot spot. The anti-cancer mechanism of shikonin is closely related with apoptosis and three kinds of signaling pathways. This article reviewed the research progress in apoptosis and signal pathways induced by shikonin.

Methods 86 children with severe pneumonia were divided into two groups according to the hospital card number:treatment group(n=45) and control group(n=41).All of them were given routine treatment,while the patients of the treatment group were given ulinastatin(5 000 U· kg-1 · time-1 ,1-2times/d,7d) in addition.The time of tem-perature drop to normal,the time of dyspnea improve,the time of dyspnea disappear,the time of lung rale disappear and length of hospital stay were observed.Then,the therapeutic effect was evaluated after treatment for 7 days.Results The treatment group had 21 cases excellence,21 cases improvement and 3 cases failure, the total effective rate was 93.33%,the control group had 17 cases excellence,15 cases improvement and 9 cases failure,the total effective rate was 78.04%,there was significant difference between the two groups(χ2 =4.17,P<0.05).The time of temperature drop to normal,the time of dyspnea improve,the time of dyspnea disappear,the time of lung rale disappear and length of hospital stay in the treatment group were (3.37 ±1.51)d,(3.12 ±1.72)d,(7.15 ±2.45)d,(10.75 ±2.47)d, respectively,which in the control group were (5.02 ±1.78)d,(4.82 ±1.51)d,(9.08 ±2.85)d,(13.22 ±2.85)d, there were significant differences between the two groups(t=4.71,4.91,3.42,4.41,all P<0.01).Conclusion Ulinastatin has good effect on children with severe pneumonia.It has value in application.
RESUMEN
Background and purpose:Selenium is one of the essential trace elements for human activities, and plays an incomparable role in maintaining human health. It was reported that selenium compound 1,4-bis[2-(benzylse-lanyl)ethoxy] (BSEA) anthracene has antiseptic and antiphlogistic effects. However, the mechanisms underlying anti-cancer effects of BSEA are rarely reported. BSEA-induced apoptosis in human laryngeal carcinoma Hep-2 cells and its mechanisms were studied.Methods:Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay was used to determine inhibition ratio of Hep-2 cells 24 hours after Hep-2 cells were treated with different concentrations of BSEA. Fluorescence microscope was used to observe the morphology change of apoptosis in Hep-2 cells. The apoptosis was detected by Annexin Ⅴ-FITC. Mi-tochondrial membrane potential was assayed by JC-1. Microplate reader detected the activity of caspase-3 and caspase-8. The mRNA and protein levels of Bax and XIAP were measured by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RTFQ-PCR) and Western blot.Results:The results showed that BSEA caused a dose-dependent inhibition of the growth of human laryngeal carcinoma cell line Hep-2in vitro, andIC50 was 35.74μmol/L. The apoptotic bodies were distinctly observed at a concentration of 80μmol/L of BSEA by AO fluorescence staining. This study found that the eversion of phosphatidyl serine intensified, and mitochondrial membrane potential also began to decline. The activity of caspase-3 appeared the tendency of dependence on dosage, while the activity of caspase-8 did not change significantly. The mRNA and protein expression level of Bax increased, whereas the mRNA and protein expression level of XIAP de-creased.Conclusion:Therefore, BSEA could obviously inhibit human laryngeal carcinoma Hep-2 cells proliferation and induce apoptosis via the mitochondrial pathway.
RESUMEN
Objective To explore the structure of ribosomal protein S7 ( RPS7) gene of giant panda ( Ailuropoda melanoleuca) and investigate its homologies with other already reported sequences,including Homo sapiens,Mus musculus,Rattus norvegicus and Bos taurus. Methods The cDNA of RPS7 was cloned from the giant panda by RT-PCR. The sequence data were analyzed by GenScan software. Blast 2. 1 was used to study the homology of the obtained RPS7 sequence with the gene sequences of other species; Open reading frame ( ORF) of the DNA sequence was searched using ORF finder software; Protein structure of the RPS7 sequence cloned was deduced using Predict Protein software. Results The full length of the sequence fragment was 589 bp containing an ORF of 585 bp. The deduced protein sequence showed that the protein was composed of 194 ami- no acids and its estimated molecular weight was 22. 126 85 ?103 with a pI of 10. 09. There were 7 different pat- terns of functional sites: one N-glycosylation site; two cAMP and cGMP-dependent kinase phosphorylation sites; four casein kinase C phosphorylation sites; one casein kinase Ⅱ phosphorylation site; two N-myristoylation sites; two amidation sites and one ribosomal protein S7e signature site in the RPS7 protein. Further analysis indicated that the sequence of RPS7 and the protein encoded were highly homologous to some mammals reported.Conclusion The complete coding sequence of RPS7 gene has been cloned through RT-PCR successfully, which is the first report on the RPS7 gene from the giant panda.
