Objective To establish normally immortalized porcine hepatocyte lines by ectopic expression of simian virus 40 large T (SV40LT) antigen and the human telomerase reverse transcriptase(hTERT). Methods Primary porcine Hepatoeyte cells were transfeeted with recombinant retrovirus containing SV40LT or hTERT respectively. Subsequently drug resistant cell clones were screened and expanded for further studies. Immortalized porcine hepatocyte was confirmed by examination. Results The morphological phenotype of the transfected cells was similar to the primary porcine hepatocyte. One clone, HepLP, has been maintained in cultue for half year, and expanded by more than 60 passages. SV40 LT and hTERT could be detected in transfected porcine hepatocyte. Pig albumin mRNA was also detected by RT-PCR. No tumor formation occurred when HepLP cells were injected into Balb/c nude mice. Conclusions The immortalized, nontumorigenic, porcine hepatoeytes maintained the properties of porcine primary hepatocytes such as the albumin secretion. This generation of immortalized porcine hepatocyte may be helpful for bioartifical liver support system, hepatocytes transplantation, drug/toxicological studies, and liver biologic studies.

Objective:To investigate the application effect of early emergency nursing teaching for eye battle injuries guided by the deep teaching concept.Methods:A total of 64 ophthalmic nurses who participated in early emergency nursing training for eye battle injuries were divided into control group with 26 nurses and observation group with 38 nurses. For the control group, list-based self-directed learning was used for theoretical teaching, and the traditional demonstration teaching method was used for the teaching of operational skills; for the observation group, the deep teaching concept was used for teaching design from the aspects of promoting understanding, inspiring reflection, and providing immersive experience, and it is also used to implement theoretical and practical teaching. The two groups were compared in terms of general information, theoretical scores, operational skill scores, and core competency scores before and after implementation. SPSS 22.0 was used for the t-test and the chi-square test. Results:There were no significant differences between the two groups in the general information including age, years of working in ophthalmology, education background, and professional title. Before implementation, there were no significant differences between the two groups in theoretical score, operational skill score, and core competency score, and compared with the control group after implementation, the observation group had significantly better theoretical score [(90.13±5.87) vs. (81.73±4.68), P<0.001] and scores of two operational skills [(95.63±2.81) vs. (87.31±4.51), P<0.001; (96.24±2.74) vs. (89.08±4.50), P <0.001]. Compared with the control group in terms of Competency Inventory for Registered Nurse, the observation group had significantly better scores of critical thinking [(34.00±1.93) vs. (30.58±3.01), P<0.001] and clinical nursing ability [(32.13±1.65) vs. (28.35±2.28), P<0.001]. Conclusions:The teaching method based on the deep teaching concept helps to enhance the knowledge, emergency skills, clinical reflection, and nursing abilities of ophthalmic nurses in the early emergency treatment of eye battle injuries and can improve the ideological awareness and training readiness of military clinical nurses.

Purpose:
The human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is an established therapeutic target for various kinds of solid tumors. HER2 amplification occurs in approximately 1% to 6% of colorectal cancer. In this study, we aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab in combination with chemotherapy in HER2-positive metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).
Materials and Methods:
An open-label, phase II trial (Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT03185988) was designed to evaluate the antitumor activity of trastuzumab and chemotherapy in HER2-positive digestive cancers excluding gastric cancer in 2017. Patients from this trial with HER2-positive, KRAS/BRAF wild-type, unresectable mCRC were analyzed in this manuscript. Eligible patients were treated with trastuzumab (8 mg/kg loading dose and then 6 mg/kg every 3 weeks) and irinotecan (120 mg/m2 days 1 and 8 every 3 weeks). The primary endpoint was the objective response rate.
Results:
Twenty-one HER2-positive mCRC patients were enrolled in this study. Seven patients (33.3%) achieved an objective res-ponse, and 11 patients (52.4%) had stable disease as their best response. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 4.3 months (95% confidence interval, 2.7 to 5.9). Four of the 21 patients (19.0%) had grade 3 adverse events, including leukopenia, neutropenia, urinary tract infection, and diarrhea. No treatment-related death was reported. Exploratory analyses revealed that high tumor tissue HER2 copy number was associated with better therapeutic response and PFS. Alterations in the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway, HER2 gene, phosphoinositide 3-kinase/AKT pathway, and cell cycle control genes were potential drivers of trastuzumab resistance in mCRC.
Conclusion
Trastuzumab combined with chemotherapy is a potentially effective and well-tolerated therapeutic regimen in mCRC with a high HER2 copy number.
