S-1 is an upgraded product of tegafur and UFT. Compared with 5-FU, it has stronger anticancer activity, and relative rare gastrointestinal adverse reaction. Many clinical studies have demonstrated S-1 has very good efficacy and safety in patients with advanced gastric cancer. The efficacy of single S-1 has been approved better than other available anti-cancer drugs in the treatment of gastric cancer, and similar to combination regimens such as cisplatin plus fluorouracil.

Objective:To study the in vivo anti-tumor effect of exosomes (Exo) combined with bacillus Calmette-Gu?rin vaccine(BCG). Methods:Exo was isolated and purified from culture supernatant of E.G7-OVA tumor cells by density gradient centrifugation. Protein components of Exo were detected by Western blotting. Exo,BCG,Exo combined with BCG (Exo+BCG) or PBS were pre-injected into mice before injection of E.G7-OVA cells,and the anti-tumor effects were observed in each group. Mouse model bearing E.G7-OVA cells was established to examine the immuno-therapy effects of Exo with or without BCG. Cytotoxity of spleen CTL was measured by LDH in different groups. Results:Exo derived from E.G7-OVA cells contained HSP60,OVA,HSC70 and CD63 as detected by Western blotting. Tumor-free rate at 90 d was significantly higher in Exo+BCG vaccinated mice than those in Exo or BCG vaccinated mice as measured by immuno-protective assay (60% vs 20% or 0%,P

Objective Our previous study demonstrated that toll-like receptor 2(TLR2) can distinguish extraneous antigen and prevent the immunological response. This study was designed to detect the expression of toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) mRNA in cornea and investigate the effect of steroid on TLR2 expression in rats cornea following allograft penetrating keratoplasty. Methods The penetrating keratoplasty models were established in SPF rats with the 108 SD rats as receiptors and 36 SPF Wistar rats as donors, and other 6 SPF SD rats worked as normal controls. The receiptor rats were divided randomly into autograft group, allograft group and steriod group. The clarity and neovascularization of corneas of experiment rats were examined under the slit-lamp microscope and the rejection index was calculated based on Holland criteria. Corneal histopathological examination was carried out by hemotoxylin and eosin staining under the light microscope, and real time-PCR was employed for the detect of TLR2 mRNA in the corneas at the fifth, seventh and ninth day after operation. The experimental animals were obtained from the Animal Experimental Center of Southern Medical University and the procedure followed the Statement of Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology. Results The rejection occurred in 7 days after operation in allograft group, and only mild edema, opacity and neovascularization of corneas were found at different degrees in 9 days after operation in autograft group and steriod group. Severe corneal edema, a lots of inflammatory cells infiltration and new vessels in stroma were seen in allograft group, and mild inflammatory response was found in autograft group and steriod group. Normal comeal structure was exhibited in normal control group under the light microscope. The fold differences of TLR2 mRNA expression in cornea after amplification was significantly different among three groups and different time points (F_(group) = 39. 46, P = 0. 00; F_(time) =35. 38, P = 0. 00 ; F_(interaction) = 45. 66, P =0. 00), and the evident enhance of TLR2 mRNA expression was revealed in allograft group compared with autograft group (P ＜ 0. 05) and declined in steriod group (P ＜ 0. 05). Conclusion Steriod may restrain the acute allograft rejection by down-regulating the expression of TLR2 in corneas and its signals transaction. This result suggests that steriod offer a protection from rejection of cornea after penetrating keratoplasty.

Background:Tripterygium glycosides(TG)is effective for treatment of ulcerative colitis(UC)in clinical practice, however,the underlying mechanism has not been clarified yet. Aims:To investigate the therapeutic effect of TG on dextran sulfate sodium(DSS)-induced experimental colitis in mice and its possible mechanisms. Methods:Sixty healthy male BALB/ c mice were randomly divided into six groups:model control group,low,medium and high-dose TG group,blank control group and normal control group. Mice in the first four groups drank 5% DSS freely for 7 days to induce experimental colitis;simultaneously,distilled water,9. 01,27. 03 or 81. 09 mg/(kg·d)TG were given intragastrically for 21 days in these four groups,respectively. Histopathological changes of colonic mucosal tissues were observed;expressions of TLR4 mRNA and protein were determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting;expression of NF-κB p65 was detected by immunohistochemistry;concentrations of IL-1α,TNF-α and IL-13 were measured by ELISA. Results:Tissue damage and inflammation in varying degrees were observed in colonic mucosal tissues in TG groups with different dosage,but all were less severe than those in model control group. Expressions of TLR4 mRNA,TLR4 protein,and NF-κB p65 in colonic mucosal tissues,as well as concentrations of IL-1α and TNF-α in supernatant of colonic homogenate were significantly lower in TG groups than those in model control group(P < 0. 01). These parameters in medium and high-dose TG groups were significantly lower than those in low-dose TG group(P < 0. 05),but higher than those in blank control group and normal control group(P < 0. 05). Except for TNF-α,no significant differences were seen between medium and high-dose TG groups(P > 0. 05). Conclusions:TG exerts a protective effect on DSS-induced experimental colitis in mice. The underlying mechanism of its anti-inflammatory effect might be related with the inhibition of TLR4 / NF-κB signaling pathway activation and subsequently suppressing downstream proinflammatory cytokines expression and secretion.

Objective To assess the long-term surgical outcomes,patient's satisfaction and functional results of correction for patients with penile curvature by 16-dot minimal tension plication.Methods Between August 2004 and December 2010,92 patients with penile curvature underwent surgical correction of penile curvature by 16-dot minimal tension plication.Of them,86 patients (53 patients with congenital penile curvature and 33 patients with Peyronie's disease (PD)) were reached for long-term follow-up.Indications for operation included patients with 30 to 90 degrees of penile curvature,penile length greater than 10 cm and patients who had one or more symptoms,such as difficulty or inability to vaginal penetration and partner discomfort during sexual intercourse.Patients were excluded from study if they had severe penile curvature (greater than 90 degrees),hourglass deformities or large plaques.Preoperative evaluation included international index of erectile function 5 (IIEF-5) questionnaire score,pain on erection and physical examination.Patients were recommended daily low dose phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitors 2 weeks after surgery and maintained for 2 to 3 months.At follow-up,recurrence rate,complications,erectile function,patients and partner's satisfaction with the surgery were assessed.Results The mean time of follow-up was 79 months (range,35-107 months).Of 86 patients who had been reached for long-term follow up,82 patients (95.3％) and 77 partners (89.5％) reported overall satisfaction after the surgery.Complete penile straightening was achieved in 79 patients (91.8％).Slight residual curvatures were observed in 7 patients,but did not affect their sexual intercourse.Postoperative penile length shortening (median penile length loss 1.3 cm) was noted in 35 patients (40.7％),which did not affect their sexual intercourse.In addition,no de novo erectile dysfunction was observed,and sexual function was significantly improved evidenced by the IIEF-5 scores,especially in the patients who had received PDE-5 inhibitors for 2 to 3 months.There were no surgery-related complications,such as hematoma,urethral injury,or infection.Conclusion The longterm results demonstrate that correction of penile curvature using 16-dot plication is a simple and safe method to achieve cosmetic and functional satisfaction in patients with mild to moderate penile curvature.
