Objective To investigate the expression characteristics of Golgi phosphoprotein 3(GOLPH3)in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)and explore its clinicopathological significance. Methods The expressions of GOLPH3 protein was detected in 132 cases of paired paraf-fin embedded HCC specimens and pericarcinoma tissues using immunohistochemical staining ,and the relation of the expression of GOLPH3 to clinicopathologic features was analyzed. Meanwhile,the expression and distribution of GOLPH3 in HCC cells was observed by laser confocal mi-croscopy. Results The positive expression rates of GOLPH3 in HCC and pericarcinoma tissues were 70.0%(92/132)and 42.4%(56/132) (P<0.001),respectively. The incidence of portal vein tumor thrombus in high and low GOLPH3 expression groups of HCC were 21.2%(14/66) and 6.1%(4/66)(P<0.05),respectively. The expression rate of GOLPH3 in HCC was significantly higher than that in pericarcinoma tissues, and the expression of GOLPH3 in HCC was positively related to portal vein tumor thrombus. In addition ,GOLPH3 was mainly expressed in cyto-plasm of HCC cells,and there was also scattered distribution in the nucleus. Conclusion GOLPH3 acts as an oncogene and may play vital roles in the carcinogenesis and development of HCC.

events were associated with promestriene use. Conclusion The premestriene capsule was safe and effective in the treatment of postmenopausal atrophic vaginitis.

Objective To analyze the outcomes of radiotherapy for 74 patients with intracranial ger-minoma. Methods Between 1990 and 2007,74 patients with intracranial germinoma(9 pathologically diag-nosed and 65 clinically diagnosed) were treated with radiotherapy in our hospital. The median age at diagno-sis was 15 (range 5-45) years. Radiation treatment fields varied among patients, including craniospinal irra-diation(CSI), whole brain irradiation, whole ventricular irradiation with primary tumor boost, and involved-field irradiation only to the primary tumor plus margin. The dose was 38.5 -50.0 Gy to the tumor,18-25 Gy to the whole brain/ventricular,and 21-25 Gy to the whole spinal cord in fractions of 1.6-2.0 Gy per day,5 fractions per week. Results The median follow-up time was 80(range 12-168) months and the fol-low-up rate was 97%. Fourteen patients had been followed up for over 10 years. The 1-,5- and 10-year o-verall survival rates were 99% ,96% and 93%. The corresponding disease free survival rates were 97%, 90% and 83%, respectively. Relapses occurred in 9 patients. For the 6 patients with in-field relapse, the dose to the tumor was 38.5-40.0 Gy in 3 patients, 41-45 Gy in 2 and 46-50 Gy in 1. Relapse in the spinal cord was found in 3 patients and none of them received spinal irradiation. Twenty-one patients re-quired hormonal replacement therapy because of radiation induced hypofunction of prehypophysis. Conclu-sions Radiotherapy alone is a curative treatment for intracranial germinoma. The proper dose should be de-termined by tumor numbers and the examination of cerebrospinal fluid.
