Pancreatic cancer is one of the most malignant tumors.Targeted therapy has become an important part of the treatment of pancreatic cancer.The signaling pathways such as hepatocyte growth factor/c-MET (HGF/c-MET) signaling pathway, inhibition of which may exerts an antitumor effect, play extremely important roles in the occurrence and development of pancreatic cancer.Therefore, the research of HGF/c-MET targeted inhibitors opens up a new avenue for treatment of pancreatic cancer.

Objective To investigate the proliferation and the change of antigen on the cord blood CIK cells. Methods Cord blood CIK cells were generated by culture cord blood mononuclear cells in the presence of ?-IFN on day 0 and rhIL-2, antiCD3 MCAb on day 1. CIK cultures were analysed on different time point by FACS(Fluorescence activated cell sorter). The killing efficacy in tumor cell lines and primary leukemia cells were detected by MTT assay. Results After 2~3 weeks of culturing cord blood CIK cells expanded about 64.14?16 folds and CD+3 CD+56 cells which were the major cytolytic effector in CIK cells proliferated about 900 folds. Cord blood CIK cells have great cytotoxity against tumor cell lines as well as primary leukemia cells. Conclusions Cord blood MNCs can be cultured to CIK cells and the times of expansion are very high. Cord Blood CIK cells are highly efficient cytolytic effector cells.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of comprehensive rehabilitation therapy in treating post-stroke shoulder- hand syndrome.Method Sixty patients with post-stroke shoulder-hand syndrome were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 30 cases in each group. The treatment group was intervened by acupuncture plus correct posture, rehabilitation training, wax disc method, and intermediate-frequency medicinal penetration therapy; the control group was only by acupuncture plus correct posture. Before and after intervention, the limb function, pain, swelling degree, and activities of daily life were measured, and the clinical efficacies were compared between the two groups.Result The total effective rate was 93.3% in the treatment group versus 66.7% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). In the treatment group, the indexes (Fugle-Meyer Assessment of upper limb, movement range of shoulder, Global Perceived Effect, Visual Analogue Scale, and swelling score) were significantly changed after intervention (P<0.01). After treatment, the indexes of the treatment group were significantly different from those of the control group (P<0.01).Conclusion Comprehensive rehabilitation therapy can significantly improve pain, swelling, motor function of the affected limb, and activities of daily life in post-stroke shoulder-hand syndrome.

BACKGROUND:The cryopreservation of single tissue has achieved great advancement and is gradual y applied in clinics. However, the cryopreservation of complex tissue is rarely reported.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the morphological change in rabbit limb tissue after replantation through different rewarming methods, find the best rewarming methods of compound textured blood vessels, and provide theoretical basis for the feasibility of limb replantation after long-term cryopreservation.
METHODS:Thirty New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into control group, slow freezing-slow thawing group, and slow freezing-rapid thawing group. The right posterior limbs of al the rabbits were cut off 1 cm above the knee joint. Except control group, the latter two groups were given limb replantation after thawing, and then the right posterior limb was again cut off after the replanted limbs were survived for 6 hours. For al groups, the histological changes and gross observation in aorta tissue were observed by light microscopy and transmission electron microscope, and the results were analyzed with statistical methods.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In the slow freezing-slow thawing, slow freezing-rapid thawing groups, the pathological changes (gross specimen, light microscope, electron microscope) of rabbit limbs 6 hours after replantation were worse than those in control group. Compared with slow freezing-rapid thawing group, better integrity of endothelial cells and less damage of the organel es were found in slow freezing-slow thawing group. Through deep cryogenic freezing-thawing process, rabbit limb blood vessels can maintain the structural integrity after replantation and survived at 6 hours. Slow freezing-slow thawing is better than slow freezing-rapid thawing for the preservation of severed limbs, providing evidences for the long-term survival fol owing a deep cry ogenic treatment after the severed limb replantation.

AIM: To evaluate the expression of iNOS mRNA in different invasion ability colon carcinoma cell strains. METHODS: MTT was used to detect the growth and reproduction of colon cancer cell strain CW-2 and LS174T. RT-PCR and Northern blot were used to detect expression of iNOS mRNA in colon cancer. RESULTS: MTT growth curve displayed that colon cancer cell strain LS174T grew and reproduced faster than cell strain CW-2. RT-PCR showed that iNOS mRNA expressed strongly in CW-2 cell strain, while iNOS mRNA expressed weakly in LS174T cell strain. Northern blot detected that iNOS mRNA expressed obviously in CW-2 cell strain, but cell strain LS174T have no obvious iNOS mRNA expression. All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) had no obvious effect on iNOS mRNA expression in CW-2 cell strain of colon cancer. CONCLUSIONS: ATRA has no obvious effect on iNOS mRNA expression. iNOS has a dual effect on tumor growth. In low-metastatic colon carcinoma CW-2, iNOS may exert a anti-tumor influence by cytotoxicity or inducing cell apoptosis. In high-metastatic colon cancer LS174T, iNOS produced low concentration of NO, which may be an important signal-transduction molecule for increasing blood supply and angiogenesis, which improve the growth, invasion and metastasis of tumor.

Aortic dissection is a common disease which is very dangerous,with high mortality rate.Bypass graft for the treatment of DeBakey Ⅲ dissection has outstanding advantages than the ordinary replacement of thoracic aorta,and some patients will inevitably require the use of the procedure.The purpose of this study was to explore the impact of the subclavian artery-abdominal aorta bypass graft on hemodynamic parameters in the false lumen and the effectiveness of surgical treatment.First of all,the idealized three-dimensional geometric models of DeBakey Ⅲ aortic dissection and its subclavian artery-abdominal aorta bypass graft operation were constructed,respectively.Then the models were imported into ANSYS 11.0 for finite element analysis.Results of numerical simulation showed that both velocity and pressure of the blood flow were reduced after bypass graft at the entrance and in the internal sac of false lumen,which is very favorable for reducing the impact of blood flow on false lumen,slowing down the further expansion of entrance,preventing the breakdown of false lumen,and promoting the healing of dissection.Therefore,the subclavian artery-abdominal aorta bypass graft operation is an effective surgical method for the treatment of DeBakey Ⅲ aortic dissection in some particular cases.This operation is with great prospects for clinical application.
