Mesothelioma: Questions and Answers Mesothelioma is a rare form of cancer in which malignant (cancerous) cells are found in the mesothelium, a protective sac that covers most of the body��s internal organs. Most people who develop mesothelioma have worked on jobs where they inhaled asbestos particles. What is the mesothelium? The mesothelium is a membrane that covers and protects most of the internal organs of the body. It is composed of two layers of cells: One layer immediately surrounds the organ; the other forms a sac around it. The mesothelium produces a lubricating fluid that is released between these layers, allowing moving organs (such as the beating heart and the expanding and contracting lungs) to glide easily against adjacent structures. The mesothelium has different names, depending on its location in the body. The peritoneum is the mesothelial tissue that covers most of the organs in the abdominal cavity. The pleura is the membrane that surrounds the lungs and lines the wall of the chest cavity. The pericardium covers and protects the heart. The mesothelial tissue surrounding the male internal reproductive organs is called the tunica vaginalis testis. The tunica serosa uteri covers the internal reproductive organs in women.

Chinese medicine and tumor immunity

��ڶ�, 18 �� 2007 04:34:22 GMT

Year of the 16th century, who invented the vaccinia virus. My medical history of this glorious achievements have laid a foundation for the modern immunology, as the beginning of modern immunology. Immune biological phenomenon and the discovery of immune tolerance and the cell line selection theory, the modern immunology from the development of anti-infective organism immune to "own" and "non-own" identification, in order to maintain the stability of the biological concept of the body. Experimental Biology in the medical model of the modern - psychological - the social model of alternative medicine, medical direction towards mental and physical medicine Xun step galloped in this change in the overall concept of the medical and academic thinking of the balance of Yin and Yang is an extremely important value of Chinese medicine in the role of the immune in-depth study.
In early 1970s, China's fight against cancer screening herbs for a lot of work and made much progress, found many herbs have anti-cancer effects, the use of certain drugs with animal experiments consistent results. With the right medicine in vivo mechanism of the in-depth study of TCM in the overall concept of thought, the beginning of traditional Chinese medicine on the body's immune function. It was in accordance with the process of tumor cell proliferation and drug mechanism of anticancer herbs will be divided into four of eight categories, four of the cytotoxic type regulation of metabolism, immune-promoting and Blood Circulation; Eight of the role of the cell cycle, the damage of the cell membrane, inhibition of cell respiration, regulation of cell metabolism to adjust the overall metabolism of plants Hemagglutinin type, promoting specific immune types, and promoting non-specific immune category. Medicine classification mechanism of Chinese medicine research is valuable. Immunity from the perspective of Chinese medicine, research is the most beneficial Fuzheng herbs, Blood Circulation, Ruanjian Sanjie, Huatan Animal Drugs and medicine also used modern medical methods discussed are described below:
1, beneficial Fuzheng categories:
Organisms such medicine immune function of the immune system, allergic effects, and the adrenal cortex hormones, anti-inflammatory and regulatory role of cyclic nucleotides. Combined Immune study of such major ginseng herbs, dangshen, Astragalus, winter days, Ciwujia, psoralen, Ligustrum lucidum, coixenolide, of Medlar, turtle shells, turtle, walnut tree, and Cordyceps.
Ginseng, Ciwujia, Ligustrum lucidum and regulate immune function, strengthen the body non-specific immune function, isolated from ginseng protein synthesis promoting factor, as Prostisol, this element of a variety of ginseng contain glycosides, animal tests prove that the host protein components can promote fat metabolism, regulate metabolism, enhance immune function. Ginsenosides have cancer, cancer cells can reverse. Advanced cancer patients or surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy after a weak body with the appropriate use of ginseng can really improve the quality of life, enhanced physique, but must Diagnosis and Prescription.
Astragalus, Ligustrum lucidum can enhance leukocyte macrophage phagocytosis, a toxic infection of disease, in vivo in mice Astragalus may induce interferon. Astragalus extracted from the injection of a polysaccharide mouse spleen can increase plasma cell proliferation, promoting the formation of antibodies. Tumor Institute of Medical Sciences confirmed that the material, lymphocytes of patients with Astragalus, Ligustrum lucidum, inhibit lymphocyte (Ts) activity increased. Dangshen have extensive pharmacological effects, such as enhancing the body's ability to resist anti - hypoxia, anti-radiation injury, anti-cold, regulating pituitary adrenocortical function, the cardiovascular system and the digestive system and the immune function of promoting hematopoietic function.
Poria, Zhuling polysaccharide as a catalyst for immunization has been proven in clinical enhance macrophage phagocytosis, the lymphocytes of patients with conversion rate and E-rosette formation rate. And increased appetite, improve the quality of life. Recent reports Kiwifruit polysaccharide can promote NK cell-killing effect.
2, Blood Circulation categories:
These drugs through animal experiments proved to inhibit certain tumor cells, but also of certain drugs inhibit immune response capacity to promote tumor metastasis. Such drugs mainly TPG, Salvia, safflower, podophyllotoxin, the LDC rhubarb, Shek see clothing, Rumex japonicus root Triptolide, quick and.
Salvia confirmed in animal experiments can promote tumor metastasis, not only triptolide humoral immune suppression, but also inhibit the immune cells. TPG separate water extract or 70% ethanol extract of the number of metastases had no obvious effect, and cyclophosphamide (kg) or a dish of ammonia methotrexate (0.5mg/kg) significantly inhibited combined, could significantly promote C57 BC / 6 Lewis rats lung cancer spontaneous pulmonary metastases and intravenous blood cell S180 disseminated. Extracts of treatment with TPG, 56Cr - S180 cells in animal lung, spleen, liver and blood of the distribution increased to a certain extent. TPG facilitate the transfer of this mechanism may Chishao expansion vessels, increase blood flow and body humoral and cellular immune stronger the effect. Fidler, 1971 has been reported to reduce the immune response could promote animal drug lung tumor metastasis. Blood Circulation clinical application in the treatment of certain tumors such as liver cancer, breast cancer, the effect of certain recent reports, such experimental and clinical contradiction with the conclusions of many factors related to application compatibility and medicine after drug interactions, and pharmacological effects alone will taste different drugs, the anti-tumor drugs such the role of immune mechanism remains to be substantial clinical and experimental data to prove that.

3, Qingrejiedu categories:
Qingrejiedu category of drugs variety of different indications have talent, certain drugs such as the anti-tumor effect of Hedyotis diffusa, BAIYing, Solanum nigrum, Scutellaria Barbata, tonkinensis, rattan pear root of the river cars, Kushen, flea and tongue of dog, baicalin, and Buffalo. Certain drugs can be excited reticuloendothelial system, enhanced phagocytic capacity, such as Buffalo to increase the number of lymphocytes, excited adrenal cortex; Hive can enhance and inhibit T lymphocyte function humoral immunity.
4, Ruanjian Sanjie Huatan category
Ruanjian Sanjie Huatan drug Arrowhead in the mountains, Prunella, and oyster, and the Radix Ranunculi Ternati of S180, WK256, strains and strains inhibit tumor. Banxia, soap system, Melon, Southern Star, NAOZHOU sand, and Huatan Huangyaozi of 180 strains of the drug inhibited Banxia are immune adjuvant effect.
5, animal
Animal drugs Ejiao, turtle shell, velvet can enhance lymphocyte transformation rate, a similar immune adjuvant, velvet-hemolytic mouse antibody to promote the generation of mouse serum titer lectin, hydrocortisone, cyclophosphamide induced monocyte - macrophage inhibitory system obviously activation, and enhanced mouse liver, spleen macrophage phagocytosis index increased mouse thymus weight. So the right body for cellular and humoral immunity are different degrees of enhancement, which may be velvet "spermatogenic fill pulp, Yangxue Yiyang" important pharmacology basis. Jiangcan inhibit the S180; There can be extended Biejia antibody; Placenta LPS enhanced cellular and humoral immunity.
6, aromatic Kaiqiao category
Drugs such as musk have enhanced the role of immune cells. Proprietary Chinese medicine as Meihuadianshe Dan study that the drug could increase the normal mice and mice bearing the weight of immune organs, can significantly against the immunosuppressive effects of cyclophosphamide, compared with the control group P <0.01-0.001, but also enhance the normal mice and in test-hydride small inhibitory tumor-bearing mice and mouse peritoneal macrophage phagocytosis, compared with the control group P <0.05 - 0.001. Topical medicine. Topical medicine can play a role immunostimulants, Tianjin reported by golden ointment, Yuhong paste, paste Coptis activated mouse peritoneal macrophages, enhancing their chemotaxis to the inflammatory lesions gathered to inflammation disappeared. Medicine activated macrophages, the larger, more pseudo-foot cytoplasm phagocytic vacuole, but such a role must be activated in the serum complement components can be produced chemokine role. Thus inference medicine produced chemokine activity is the main mechanism of activation of serum complement. Beijing hospital and reducing external radiation therapy Dan ulcers and cancer patients recover long tube leakage or wounds received good effect. Especially for qi-Deficit Syndrome patients significant effect.
The study shows that in vivo anticancer herbs organized and selective positions. Different anti-tumor spectrum of different herbs, in the role of the different, the role of tumor immunotherapy needs to be done in-depth research.

cancer

��ڶ�, 18 �� 2007 04:22:22 GMT

cancer, in medicine, common term for neoplasms, or tumors, that are malignant. Like benign tumors, malignant tumors do not respond to body mechanisms that limit cell growth. Unlike benign tumors, malignant tumors consist of undifferentiated, or unspecialized, cells that show an atypical cell structure and do not function like the normal cells from the organ from which they derive. Cancer cells, unlike normal cells, lack contact inhibition; cancer cells growing in laboratory tissue culture do not stop growing when they touch each other on a glass or other solid surface but grow in masses several layers deep.

Loss of contact inhibition accounts for two other characteristics of cancer cells: invasiveness of surrounding tissues, and metastasis, or spreading via the lymph system or blood to other tissues and organs. Whereas normal cells have a limited lifespan controlled by the telomere gene, which signals the end of the cell line, cancer cells contain telomerase, an enzyme that alters the telomere gene and allows the cell to continue to divide. Cancer tissue, growing without limits, competes with normal tissue for nutrients, eventually killing normal cells by nutritional deprivation. Cancerous tissue can also cause secondary effects, in which the expanding malignant growth puts pressure on surrounding tissue or organs or the cancer cells metastasize and invade other organs.

She fell in love with

��ڶ�, 18 �� 2007 01:56:58 GMT

She fell in love with a love of men should not, but the good sense to control their emotions, but eventually caught another Lovelorn --
The 26-year-old Yan Yu looks than her actual age still small, as a college student in the school, she said that they have not really talked about a love, because she should not fall in love with a loving man.
In 1999, 21-year-old Yu Xin graduated from university in her college counselor Liping of the presentation, she went to a foreign company in Shenzhen Planning. Liping is 1997 from the University of resignation to the company, it is a leading company in fact, only two years, she is the company's manager of the Department of Planning.
Li-Yan Yu Although only a year counselors, but their relationship has been very good, Liping left school after two have been linked, Yan Yu came to Shenzhen after there was no place to live, Liping specialized in their own homes vacated rooms to the one she lived. Here, Yu Xin know she called "brother-in-law" Zhao.
"I see the first time he knew of the trouble, he is what I like the type of man." Yan Yu told reporters.
Zhao Liping is the university students, looked handsome, tall, he is in the University of many girls tend mind, he came to the university after graduating from Shenzhen, now is the technical director of a company, is to Zhao, Li-ping gave up her career like teachers, came to Shenzhen.
Yan Yu Liping lives in a month time, she not only found success and very Zhao Gu, though he rarely executives to participate in what spare Liping will not stem the kitchen, living, home cooking cooking task falls on the Zhaohui body, welcomed the plume will be available to catch the top leaders, They quickly spread, Yan Yu fishing often gets muddled, Zhaohui smile she is "silly sister", the title of this intimacy to the Tian - Tian Yan Yu mind.
"Liping, who lives in less than a week, I find myself in love with the irrepressible 'brother-in-law', is perhaps the first impression it is infested, and Zhaohui more contacts, I found him more advantages." Such feelings, Yan Yu very contradictory, while she secretly feel contemptible -- Liping themselves so well, they are secretly in love with her husband, on the other hand, could not inhibit their feelings, "I was often scolded himself is not, want not want to Zhao, but everything is futile, a bed every night, I can not help examine memorable day and Zhao said every word. "
Zhao Yan does not seem to find this plume feelings, he often pulled "silly sister" to play climbers devoted to her only to a person she ate a chili fans. To free itself from such an embarrassing situation, welcomed the plume quickly find a single apartment to move out.
Slowly the work on track, Yu Yan Liping and universities found that time had totally different - she became a workaholic, except overtime to 12 hours, the Ministry of Planning on what the business every time she is headed, the mission has become routine. Yan Yu home more often to remind her spend with Zhao, she always said laughingly: "He has a habit of Shenzhen is such a rhythm, you have to pressure forcing the future you will become this."
For Zhao Yan Yu's feelings have not moved out to the weak and to allow time to dilute this immoral feelings, to avoid her to be a guest Liping home. Zhao also from time to time a phone call to her and invited her to play, she always turned down requests for an excuse for overtime no time, Zhao warned her that: "silly sister, you work all day so carefully into workaholic, not like a man." Yan Yu said with a smile: "This Liping sister, also you find such a good husband? "Unexpectedly, Zhaohui heard this, the silence has not burst words, women are sensitive to feel that Zhao Yan Yu and Li-ping between some of the feelings may have a problem.
Since then, Yan Yu relied asked Liping feelings between the two, persuaded her to take into account more the feelings of Zhao, Li-Brown has always said, "No problem."
Liping is still desperate to work in her under the leadership of the Department of Planning by mid-rated companies advanced. But just as pleased plume felt, as she and Zhao has the affection between the cracks.
By the end of 2002 the company received a project was supposed to feature a vice president in charge of the Ministry, but had never before done similar projects, Liping is not assured, she gave up and Zhao with the intention to return home and stay in the company adhere to.
"Early in the morning the other day, I received a telephone Zhaohui, he said last night and kicked up a Liping." Zhao complained to her that he and Liping years of marriage, never had a complete holidays, for the good of this back home with the Spring Festival at home for the elderly have already knows, the poems She also temporary break, Zhaohui very angry.
To work, Liping remains the same as usual, do not see any abnormal feather welcomed to inquire into Liping, Li-ping complained: "I understand he is not such a big project, I will not, if the point who is responsible for what?" Yan Yu advised or paternity Zhao Liping back: "You can not ask him to the understanding you, you also accommodate what he ah, a nominee for this project, what issues should not." Liping or laughingly: "He is a child temperament, like the past."
That year, the Spring Festival, Zhaohui, a person back home, leave their homes to live in a month, not intentionally back. He returned the day is not even a telephone, Yan Yu is with her family in Liping, Zhao into a home, Liping blame on her: "When you here the hotel ah, even if the hotels are booking ah. Here! "Zhao counterattack:" home? You have the mind-ah, I thought you had sold to the company. "The two you come to me quickly escalated into a heated argument, Yan Yu trapped in the middle, not knowing advised Side, very embarrassing. Finally, Zhao angrily arguing out.
After that incident, Zhao Liping, and the escalating quarrel, in the final two in September 2003 for a divorce, later told Zhao Yan Yu, in fact, they still love Liping, but could not endure despite her home, the two personalities are strong, noisy hearing opinions inevitably come to this divorce step.
After the divorce, Liping take the initiative to apply transferred to the company's Shanghai branch. Zhao also was very painful, frequently called to talk Yan Yu. In order to let him out of the shadows as soon as possible, Yu Xin him out often about playing mountain watching movies, the two became very good "Miners." But Yan Yu still had to suppress their feelings, she felt, and Liping also own a company, a graduate of time also helped her so much busy, so if they pry her "impossible" very immoral. She knew that still loves Zhao Liping, Li-ping from time to time because she will inquire into the recent Zhao. She felt that, even if they have to declare their love Zhaohui, must also Liping, a new lover after.
Early this year, Li-an Australian married to a Chinese immigrant to Australia, welcomed the feathers of a heart feeling the stones and charged her more frequent playing out about Zhao, Zhao and her increasingly intimate relationship indeed, but her sudden unexpected things happened.
"I have not had time to declare him a few days ago he suddenly said he had fallen in love with a girl, seemingly waiting for years have failed, I do not know how to do?" He said this when the plume was very pleased helpless.
News that Zhao had not divorce in the past, welcomed the plume is completely correct, she did not let their feelings, damage to other people's families, but Zhao is now "free", but she can to Zhao bare their hearts, even if the other girls Zhaohui the goodwill, or can compete fairly, even Zhao was rejected, can also be considered for its own account the feelings of a Otherwise, the resort old feelings, she will never be able to start a new feeling
