I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION 1. Gansu Province in 2009 had the second-lowest gross domestic product per capita in the People’s Republic of China (PRC). Its Tianshui municipality’s 3.6 million inhabitants included 640,000 urban dwellers in Qinzhou and Maiji districts with an estimated urban poverty rate of 13.5% (2009).1 Development barriers included poor infrastructure and Gansu’s remote inland location. Transport links were being improved by expressway and rail construction, and in July 2009 the State Council approved establishment of the Guanzhong–Tianshui Economic Zone (GTEZ). The GTEZ was intended by 2020 to become the northwest PRC’s economic backbone. Tianshui’s urban population was set to grow as rural migrants seized economic opportunities in the GTEZ, and this influx of industries and migrants would pressure Tianshui’s infrastructure. 2. Although positioned as an economically developed, environment-friendly, and livable city, Tianshui faced development challenges.

Materials and Methods: S180 tumor mice model was established by subcutaneous injection a dose of 0.2 ml (1×107/ml) at the right oxter. The inhibitory rates, spleen indexes and thymus indexes were calculated. Splenic lymphocyte proliferative activity assay and phagocytosis activity of peritoneal macrophages were done. Interferon (IFN-γ), interleukin (IL-2) and tumor necrotic factor (TNF-α) in serum were detected. Results: In the S180 tumor-bearing mice, Bu-zhong-yi-qi wan with medium-dose (975 mg/kg, 100 mg/l) had potent preventive effect and anti-tumor effect, macrophage phagocytosis and Con A-stimulated splenocyte proliferation were increased as compared with model control treatment. Bu-zhong-yi-qi wan could take part in the immune response by promoting the proliferation and differentiation of T- cells, increasing the activity of the macrophages, inducing the generation of cell factor IL-2, TNF-α, IFN-γ.

In some areas, the HIV infection route has spread from particular groups to the general public and the spread of HIV/AIDS is becoming worse year by year. The Chinese government has actively taken measures towards HIV/AIDS prevention such as by formulating preventative policies and strategies, preparing and strengthening relevant mechanisms, implementing national projects and increasing budgets for HIV/AIDS prevention. However, the prevention and treatment activities for HIV/AIDS cannot really be said to have been sufficient, partially due to the social discrimination surrounding HIV/AIDS. In these circumstances, the Chinese government requested assistance from the Japanese Government to strengthen HIV/AIDS prevention measures.
