Extraction, Isolation and Characterization of Mycosporine-like Amino Acids from Four Species of Red Macroalgae.

Marine macroalgae is known to be a good source of mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs), especially red macroalgae. As a new type of active substance with commercial development prospects, the current progress in the extraction, isolation and characterization of MAAs is far from sufficient in terms of effectiveness in application. To determine the extraction processes of MAAs from four species of red macroalgae (, , , and sp.

The correlation between infections by human papillomavirus types 6/11 and 16/18 and mammary gland hyperplasia with glandular thickening.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the correlation between human papillomavirus (HPV) type 6/11 and 16/18 infections and glandular thickening mammary gland hyperplasia in order to explore methods for preventing glandular thickening mammary gland hyperplasia. A total of 240 patients with glandular thickening mammary gland hyperplasia who were treated by surgery in our hospital from January 2012 to June 2017 were enrolled in the present study. The hyperplastic breast tissue and adjacent normal breast tissue were taken to test HPV type 6/11 and 16/18 infections using conventional PCR and in situ hybridization techniques.

[Intracranial atherosclerotic middle cerebral arterial stenosis research based on 3.0 Tesla high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging: recent progress].

Intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) of a major intracranial artery, including middle cerebral artery (MCA),basilar artery, is the most common causes of stroke and is associated with a high risk of recurrent stroke in China. The difficulty to treatment these high-risk disease is to identify high-risk stroke subgroups and to develop more effective treatments (aggressive medical therapy/endovascular therapy). With the benefits, including non-invasive, in vivo, and no-ionizing radiation, 3.

[Inter- and intra-observer reproducibility of 3.0 T high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging for evaluating atherosclerotic stenosis in the middle cerebral artery].

Objective: To assess the reproducibility of 3.0 T high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HR MRI) for evaluation of atherosclerotic stenosis in the middle cerebral artery (MCA).

Methods: From February, 2011 to December, 2013, 66 consecutive patients with MCA-M1 atherosclerotic stenosis (50%-99%) confirmed by digital subtractive angiography (DSA) received examinations with 3.

China's growing contribution to global intracranial aneurysm research (1991-2012): a bibliometric study.

Background: We sought to analyze the growing worldwide trends of intracranial aneurysm research, investigate China's recent contribution, and compare the contributions of mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong.

Methods: Global and China intracranial aneurysm-related publications were retrieved from the Web of Science database from 1991 to 2012. Excel 2007, Matlab, and Thomson Data Analyzer (TDA) software were used to analyze the search results for number of publications, cited frequency, h-index, and organization contributions.

[Relation of heparanase mRNA expression and angiogenesis to the progression of gastric carcinoma].

Objective: To investigate the relation of heparanase gene and angiogenesis with the progress of gastric carcinoma (GC).

Methods: Expression of heparanase mRNA in 52 GC tissue was detected by in situ hybridization assay. Microvessel density (MVD) was examined by immunohistochemical method.
