Mechanism of lung adenocarcinoma-infiltrating CD8+T cells expressing CD39 / 中国肿瘤生物治疗杂志

@#[摘 要] 目的：探讨肿瘤浸润CD8+ T细胞表达CD39的可能机制。方法：通过TCGA数据库的肺腺癌（LUAD）组织及正常肺组织转录组数据分析CD39在LUAD组织和正常肺组织中的表达差异及其对患者预后的影响，分析CD39表达与T细胞浸润、激活的关系。用小鼠LUAD Lewis细胞建立小鼠皮下移植瘤模型，FCM检测淋巴结、脾脏以及移植瘤组织中CD8+ CD39+ T细胞。收集Lewis细胞培养上清液作为条件培养基（CCM），免疫磁珠法（MACS）分选CD8+ T细胞、CD11b+细胞；在培养基中分别加入CCM、IL-6和采取非接触或接触培养方式进行培养，探索CD8+ T细胞表达CD39的可能机制。结果：CD39在LUAD组织中呈低表达（P<0.01），其表达水平与LUAD患者OS、T细胞浸润和激活水平均呈正相关（P<0.05或P<0.001）。FCM检测结果显示，在移植瘤组织中CD8+CD39+ T细胞的比例明显高于淋巴结及脾脏（P<0.01）；CCM及IL-6不能直接诱导CD8+ T细胞表达CD39，非接触共培养CD11b+细胞与CD8+T细胞也不能诱导CD8+ T细胞表达CD39，CD11b+细胞与CD8+ T细胞直接接触共培养可诱导CD8+ T细胞表达CD39（P<0.01）。结论：CD11b+细胞通过直接接触方式诱导肿瘤浸润CD8+ T细胞表达CD39，CD39可能是LUAD特异性CD8+ T细胞的分子标志。

Effects of Functional Electrical Stimulation on Lower-limb and Trunk Function in Children with Cerebral Palsy: A Meta-analysis / 中国康复理论与实践

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and long-term effect of functional electrical stimulation (FES) on cerebral palsy. Methods:Literature retrieval was carried out in the electronic databases of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China Biology Medicine Disc (CBM), CNKI, Wanfang Database and VIP. The time limit was from the establishment of these databases to March 26th, 2020. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, randomized controlled trials about FES for children with cerebral palsy were included. At least two evaluators extracted the data independently and used Cochrane 5.1.0 bias risk assessment tool to evaluate the quality of included studies. The data was analyzed with Review Manager 5.3 software. Results:A total of eleven studies with 513 children were included. The Gross Motor Function Measure-88 (GMFM-88) D/E scores (MD = 8.14, 95%CI 6.26 to 10.02, P < 0.001), GMFM-88 B score (MD = 8.77, 95%CI 4.00 to 13.53, P < 0.001), modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) score (MD = -1.05, 95%CI -1.25 to -0.84, P < 0.001), Kyphosis angle (MD = -10.67, 95%CI -12.21 to -9.13, P < 0.001), Cobb's angle (MD = -2.66, 95%CI -3.38 to -1.93, P < 0.001), step length (MD = 3.35, 95%CI 1.81 to 4.90, P < 0.001), walking speed (MD = 0.09, 95%CI 0.05 to 0.14, P < 0.001) and GMFM score at six weeks follow-up (MD = 4.84, 95%CI 1.90 to 7.77, P = 0.001) were better in FES group than in the control group. There was no significant difference in MAS score between two groups after six weeks of follow-up (MD = 0.04, 95%CI -0.30 to 0.37, P = 0.84). Conclusion:FES could improve the lower-limb and trunk function of children with cerebral palsy, however, the long-term effect of relieving muscle spasm was not significant.

Conclusion The AMH level, FSH level and immune function of the patients with laparoscopic assisted resection of myoma of uterus is small, which is beneficial to the recovery of patients.

CT-Guided Sclerotherapy for Simple Renal Cysts: Value of Ethanol Concentration Monitoring

OBJECTIVE: The aim of our study was to evaluate the differences between sclerotherapy with and without ethanol concentration monitoring for the treatment of simple renal cysts. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixty-seven patients with 70 simple renal cysts were randomly assigned to two groups in a 12-month prospective controlled trial. One group (group A) was treated with computed tomography (CT)-guided sclerotherapy without ethanol concentration monitoring (33 patients with 35 cysts), whereas the other group (group B) had ethanol concentration monitoring (34 patients with 35 cysts) during the procedure. Treatment outcomes between the two groups were compared 12 months later with follow-up ultrasound examination. RESULTS: After the 12-month follow-up period, the overall success rate was 74.3% in group A and 94.3% in group B (p = 0.022). The mean cyst size before and after treatment was 8.6 +/- 2.0 cm and 2.3 +/- 2.9 cm, respectively, in group A, and 8.4 +/- 1.7 cm and 0.8 +/- 1.9 cm, respectively, in group B. The final size of the cysts in group B was significantly smaller than that in group A (p = 0.015). The likelihood of treatment with ethanol concentration monitoring being successful was approximately 16 times higher than without ethanol concentration monitoring (p = 0.026; odds ratio = 15.7; 95% confidence interval: 1.38-179.49). There were no major complications in either group. CONCLUSION: Monitoring of Hounsfield units (HU) of ethanol by CT is an effective method in the treatment of simple renal cysts with ethanol sclerotherapy. The ethanol sclerotherapy procedure can be terminated at the point of clear fluid aspiration because the HU (-190) of CT scan corresponds to it.

Preliminary study of biomarker in blood or cerebrospinal fluid of rat following manganese exposure / 中华劳动卫生职业病杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the biomarkers of manganese exposure by measuring the manganese (Mn) and iron (Fe) level as well as the mRNA change of Hepcidin, divalent metal-ion transporter-1 (DMT1) and Parkin-2, one of genes related to Parkinson disease in body fluid and brain tissues of rat.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Male Sprague-Dawley rats were administered (i.p) either MnCl2 solution (6 mg Mn/kg) or the same volume saline, 5 times per week and for 4 weeks. Graphic furnace Atom Absorption Spectrum (AAS) was applied to measure the concentration of Mn and Fe in brain tissue and body fluids. Meanwhile Hepcidin, DMT1 and Parkin-2 mRNA expression were detected by real-time RT-PCR.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Mn concentration in erythrocytes of rats was the 86.9 folds of that in control; No significant change was found in plasma. However the trend and range of Mn increase in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was the same as that in brain tissue including striatum, cortex, hippocampus and choroid plexus. Meanwhile Fe concentration in brain tissue of Mn exposed rats was also higher than that of control, whose trend was as same as that in CSF. However iron concentration in plasma decreased. The real-time RT-PCR data also showed that Hepcidin mRNA expression in Mn-exposed rat decreased 56% in blood, which was in line with its expression in cortex(67%). Similarly, Parkin-2 mRNA expression decreased both in blood (42%) and in striatum. However DMT1 mRNA expression increase 38% in striatum of Mn-exposed rats but decreased in blood.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Hepcidin and Parkin-2 mRNA expression in blood might be serves as the effective biomarkers following manganese exposure, certainly which needs to be further explored.</p>

Inverse PCR amplification of the complete major capsid protein gene of lymphocystis disease virus isolated from Rachycentron canadum and the phylogenetic analysis of the virus / 病毒学报

The major capsid protein of lymphocystis disease virus isolated from Rachycentron canadum (LCDV-rc) was amplified and analysed. The 457bp DNA core fragment was amplified with the degenerate primers designed according to the conserved sequences of MCP gene of iridoviruses, then the flaking sequences adjacent to the core region were amplified by inverse PCR, and the complete sequence was obtained by combining all of them. The open reading frame of the gene is 1380bp in length, encoding a putative protein of 459 aa with molecular weight 51.12 kD and pI 6.87. Constructing the phylogenetic tree for comparing the MCP amino acid of iridoviruses, the results indicated that LCDV-rc is most homologous to the other Lymphocystis viruses and all of them constitute a branch. Accordingly LCDV-rc is identified as Lymphocystivirus.

Expression of neutral endopeptidase and motility-related protein-1 in cutaneous malignant melanoma / 中华病理学杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the expression of neutral endopeptidase (CD10) and motility-related protein-1 (CD9) in malignant melanoma and their clinical significance.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Immunohistochemical study for CD10 and CD9 using Streptavidin-biotin complex technique was carried out in 48 cases of primary cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM), 23 cases of metastatic melanoma and 23 cases of benign nevus.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The positivity rate of CD10 was highest in metastatic melanoma and lowest in benign nevus (P < 0.01). In contrast, the positivity rate of CD9 in metastatic melanoma was lower than that in CMM (P < 0.05). The expression of CD9 was inversely correlated with that of CD10 in malignant melanoma (CMM: r = -0.40, P = 0.005; metastatic MM: r = -0.44, P = 0.034). The expression of CD10 and CD9 in CMM also correlated with tumor histology, Clark's level of invasion and presence of nodal metastasis. A similar relationship was also observed for CD10 and CD9 expression in stromal fibroblasts of CMM (r = -0.43, P = 0.007).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>CD10 and CD9 expression correlates with the invasiveness and metastatic potential of malignant melanoma; both factors may demonstrate a counteracting effect. These two markers have potential implications in prognostic assessment of CMM. Stromal fibroblasts may also play an important role in the progression of CMM.</p>

Decrease in the esophageal cancer incidence rate in mountainous but not level parts of Cixian County, China, over 29 years.

BACKGROUND: Cixian county has one of the highest incidence rates of esophageal cancer (EC) in China, as well as the world. In 1974, the Cixian population-based cancer registry system was established, so that there is now information on esophageal cancer cases over almost 30 years. METHODS: Data from Cixian Cancer Registry were checked and analyzed using SPSS 11.5. RESULTS: From 1974 to 2002, a total of 18,471 new esophageal cancer cases were registered in Cixian, 11,068 in males and 7,403 in females. The age standardized incidence rate (ASR) for males was 208.77 per 100,000, while for females it was 120.47 per 100,000. There was a clear trend for decrease overall in the incidence rate of esophageal cancer over the 29 years (X(2)=19.94, P<0.001). As to the geographic distribution, the incidence rate in mountainous and hilly areas showed a significant decline (X(2) = 195.00 and X(2) = 46.08, respectively, both P X(2)0.001). Data for esophageal cancer incidence in level land areas in contrast were relatively steadily, with increase in recent years. CONCLUSION: Esophageal cancer has decreased in Cixian county during the last 29 years, but this is due to change in mountainous and hilly areas. Compared to other regions in the world, Cixian county still has a very high incidence of ECs.

Mortality report of malignant tumors in SheXian, Hebei Province, China, from the 1970's to the present.

BACKGROUND: Investigations into mortality from malignant tumors were initiated in the 1970's in Hebei Province, China, and especially for esophageal cancer the rates were high, Shexian county ranking in first place of the towns that were surveyed. METHODS: Since the 1970's, a register system for all causes of death has been in place. Data for the decades of the 1970's, 1980's, 1990's and 2000's century were here checked and analyzed by SPSS software. RESULT: From the decades of the 1970's onward, the mortality rates of malignant tumors/100,000 were 272.0, 260.1, 211.7 and 180.1, respectively, with significant differences over time (x2 =240.5, P<0.001). The main malignant tumors were esophageal, gastric, liver, lung and cervix cancers. The sum of their percentages of all cancer deaths were 92.1% in the 1970's, 91.6% in the 1980's, 92.1% in the 1990's and 93.9% in the 21st century. The sex ratios (male vs female) were 1.5, 1.5, 1.7 and 2.0 respectively, with an ascending trend. Mortality rates of malignant tumors increased with age, with an obvious geographic distribution. The highest mortality of malignant tumors was evident in the area where the Qingzhang and Zhuozhang rivers join. CONCLUSION: From 1970's to the beginning of the 21st century, the mortality rate of malignant tumors has shown a declining trend. The main responsible cancers are in the esophagus, stomach, liver, and lung. Through great efforts for prevention, obvious decrease for esophageal cancer and cervix cancer has been achieved, but the mortality rate for gastric cancer remains high.

Research about the gray-level correction in DSA / 中国医疗器械杂志

How to eliminate the background of other tissue and to protrude the blood vessel information is the basic requirements in DSA. Because of the complexity and non-linearity of the X-ray imaging process, the common DSA technique cannot completely remove other tissue's image which lapped over the vessels. By experiments, this paper analyses and corrects the imaging process of the actual DSA system based on the "equivalent single energy" model, and the results indicate the validity of this method.
