Résumé
Background:Malnutrition is common in patients with cancer, whichadversely affectsthesurvival and quality of life ofcancer patients.However, there is no national data on the prevalence of malnutrition inChinese cancer patients. Thisstudy aims to evaluate the prevalenceof malnutrition and quality of life(QOL)ofChinese patients with localregional, recurrentor metastatic cancer,to address the prognostic value of nutritional status and QOLon the survival of cancer patients in China and to validate the patient-generated subjective global assessment (PG-SGA) questionnaire in Chinese cancer patients.Methods:Thisisanobservational,multi-centered,and hospital-based prospective cohort study.We aimed to recruit 50,000 cancer patients (age 18and above)overan 8-year period.Data collection will occur within 48hrafter patientsare admitted to hospital, 30-days after hospital admission, and the follow-up will be conducted1-8years after enrolment. The primary outcomeisoverall survival, and secondaryoutcomes arelength of hospital stay and hospital costs. Factors measured are demographic characteristics, tumor characteristics, anthropometry measurements,hematological measurement, body composition, PG-SGAscores,Karnofsky performance status scores,and QLQ C30 scores. This protocol wasapproved by local ethical committees of all the participant hospitals.Conclusions: This multi-centered, large-scale, long-time follow-up prospective study will help diagnose malnutrition in cancer patients in China, and identify the related risk factors associated with the negative outcomes. The anticipated results will highlight the need for a truly scientific appraisal of nutrition therapy, and help to improve outcomes among cancer patients in China.Trial Registration: The trial has been registered with the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry, ChiCTR1800020329.

Résumé
Lysine specific demethylase 1( LSD1) is a kind of flavin adenine dinucleotid ( FAD) dependent amine oxidase and can specifically demethylate H 3K4me2/me1 and H3K9me2/mel, thus it can regulate gene transcriptional activity .LSD1 is essential for mammalian development and is involved in many biological proces-ses,including cell differentiation,gene activation,and gene repression.Nowadays,it is demonstrated that LSD1 might promote cell phase transition(deficiency in LSD1 leads to partial cell cycle arrest in G2/M)and cell prolif-eration,suggesting that the over -expression of LSD1 might promote tumorigenesis.LSD1,as a demethylase,may be a new target for anti -cancer therapy.Hereby,we review on the structure,action mode of LSD1 and its rela-tionship with oncogenesis .

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>The occurrence of cancer needs many kinds of oncogenes and their cooperation, such as Bcl-2, p27, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) etc. They have different contributions in lung cancer's occurrence and development by different paths. In this study the expression of P27, Bcl-2, VEGF and their relationship in lung cancer were investigated.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The expression of P27, Bcl-2 and VEGF was detected in 85 lung cancer and 21 benign pulmonary tissues by the immunohistochemistry staining.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Positive rate of VEGF and Bcl-2 protein expression was 65.88% (56/85) and 61.18% (52/85) respectively in lung cancer tissue, which was higher than that in benign pulmonary tissues (14.29% and (19.05%)) (P < 0.05). Positive rate of P27 protein expression in lung cancer tissue (37.65%, 32/85) was significantly lower than that in benign pulmonary tissues (80.95%, 17/21) (P < 0.05). VEGF expression was closely related to the grade of cell differentiation, P-TNM stage and lymph node status; Bcl-2 expression was closely related to histology of lung cancer, P-TNM stage and grade of cell differentiation; and P27 expression was closely related to grade of cell differentiation. There was correlation between P27 and Bcl-2 and between P27 and VEGF protein, but no correlation between Bcl-2 and VEGF.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Detection of P27, Bcl-2 and VEGF will be valuable for dignosing lung cancer and evaluating malignancy extent.</p>
