Objective To investigate the relationship among the plasma levels of fibrinogen and the lung cancer,and its clinical significance.Methods From 2011 to 2013,121 cases newly diagnosed lung cancer patients(lung cancer group) and 37 cases healthy individuals(control group) were evaluated.The patients had no history of coagulation system disorders or anticoagulant therapy.Plasma prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT), thrombin time (TT), fibrin original (FIB), platelet (PLT) of the patients were obtained.The relationship between the plasma levels of fibrinogen and clinical characteristics, therapy modalities (surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy), therapy outcomes and survival durations of the patients were analyzed.Results (1) Serum levels of fibrinogen at stage Ⅱ A, stage Ⅱ B, stage Ⅲ A, stage Ⅲ B, stage Ⅳ were (2.001±0.813) g/L, (2.191±0.827) g/L, (3.121 ±2.016) g/L, (4.174±0.595) g/L, (4.332 ± 1.534) g/L, a significant difference was observed between the fibrinogen levels of patients with stage Ⅱ A and those with stage Ⅳ disease (P＜0.001), and there were no significant differences among other stages (P＞0.05).(2)The mean fibrinogen level was significantly higher in the patient group with ECOG performance status 2 than in the other groups(r=0.613,P＜0.05).The mean fibrinogen level was (3.780±1.731) g/L (95％CI,3.122-4.439,P＜0.001) in the group with ECOG 0, (4.182 ± 1.661) g/L(95％CI 3.583-4.781 ,P＜0.001) in the group with ECOG 1 ,and (4.725±2.153) g/L(95％CI,4.007-5.443,P＜0.001) in the group with ECOG 2.(3) The treatment responses of 81 patients who received chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy without surgical intervention were evaluated, serum levels of fibrinogen in 39 patients with partial remission (PR) were (4.005 ±1.177) g,/L,42 patients with stable disease(SD) were (3.192±0.479) g/L, 17 patients with progressive disease(PD) were (7.530± 1.885) g/L,fibrinogen levels were found to be significantly higher in cases with progression,and the difference was significant(P =0.015).(4)Correlation analysis on fibrinogen and chnical indicator: clinical stage (r =0.529, P =0.008), ECOG score (r =0.273, P =0.031), therapy response (r =0.529, P=0.012) were positively correlated with fibrinogen levels.(5)Fibrinogen levels in patients with lung cancer were higher than those of the control group ((2.891 ± 0.484) g/L vs.(3.586± 1.692) g/L, t =-4.620, P ＜0.05), and the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.01).(6)The survival duration was significantly longer in patients with lower fibrinogen levels(321 d vs.435 d,P＜0.05).The mean fibrinogen concentration in patients who were still alive at the end of a 2-year follow-up was (3.531 ± 1.482) g/L, whereas the meanfibrinogen level of patients who died was (3.725± 2.063) g/L, and the difference between the two groups was significant(P =0.015).Conclusion The results suggest that Fibrinogen plasma levels might be useful to predict the clinical outcome and survival of patients with lung cancer.

AIM: To explore the localization and semi-quantification o f the glo merular complement C5b-9 complexes and synthesis of some inflammatory mediators or cytokines such as nitric oxide (NO) and tumor necrosis factor ?(TNF?) in the ra ts with anti-thymocyte serum nephritis(ATSN). METHODS: The animal mo del of rat AT SN was reproduced by a single intravenous injection of anti-thymocyte serum (ATS ). Then, the deposits of glomerular C5b-9 complexes were localized and quantifie d by immunohistochemical staining and microscopic image scanning separately. And the glomerular mesangial cells (MC) surrounded by C5b-9 complexes were counted under microscope. In addition, the expression of glomerular MC inducible NO synt hase(iNOS) mRNA and excretion of urinary NO metabolite ( NO - 2/NO - 3 ) and TNF ? in the rats with ATSN were detected. RESULTS: The MC in t h e rats with ATSN emerged necrosis followed by a rapid proliferation. In the early time of MC injury, the C5b-9 complexes were mainly seen in glomerular mesangium and MC sur fac e. But with the progression of ATSN, the MC enclosed by C5b-9 appeared gr adual decrease. Moreover, the expression of MC iNOS mRNA in early stage of ATSN obviously increased and the excretion of urinary NO - 2/NO - 3 and TNF ? also significantly increased. However, the changes of parameters mentioned abov e in ATSN proliferative stage (after 7 days) alleviated gradually. CONCLUSION: The second ary lysis of MC has relation to the deposition of C5b-9 complexes and synthesis and release of NO and TNF ? in rats with ATSN.

Objective: To study the correlation between MR perfusion imaging and pathology after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) using VX2 liver cancer model and to provide a theoretical basis to evaluate the curative effect of TACE. Methods; Fifteen New Zealand white rabbits (weight: 2.5-3.0kg) were randomly divided into three groups, with 5 in each group (group 1, pre-TACE; group2, 3 days after TACE; group 3,1 week after TACE). The rabbit VX2 hepatic carcinoma models were presented in all rabbits. All of the three groups received TACE at three weeks after the tumor was implanted. The MR perfusion imaging was performed before chemoembolization, at 3 days and 1 week after chemoembolization respectively for group 1, 2 and 3. Each animal was then sacrificed for pathology observation after MR examination. Results: The lesions assessed before TACE were hyperintense compared with the surrounding liver parenchyma on DWI images. The volume of neoplastic cells became large. Nucleus was hypertrophic with different size and shape. Phase of nucleous mitosis showed in many cells and necrosis was hardly seen. No obvious difference was found between the peripheral area and the core area. At 3 days after TACE, the heterogeneous hypo-intense was observed on DWI images. Many nuclear fragmentation and caryolysis appeared on pathology. Neoplasm necrosis was seen. At 1 week after TACE, the heterogeneous hypo-intense areas became larger. Light microscopy showed incomplete necrosis. There were increased karyopycnosis and nuclear fragmentation. Conclusion: MR perfusion imaging of VX2 liver cancer corresponds well with pathology and can reflect the outcome of liver cancer after TACE.

Objective To establish the methods for quantitating the circulating tumor DNA with PicoGreen fluorescent nucleic acid stain and investigate the role of the quantitative analysis in diagnosis of breast cancer. Methods Circulating tumor DNA was isolated from serum with QIAmp blood kit and was quantitated by spectrofluorometry with PicoGreen fluorescent stain. Receiver operator characteristic ( ROC) curve and area under the curve were used to estimate the role of DNA quantification in diagnosis of breast cancer. Results The efficiency of QIAamp blood kit isolating DNA from serum was 37. 8%-46. 2%, average 43. 4%. Circulating tumor DNA concentration as low as 1 ng could be detected by PicoGreen spectrofluorometry. and the detected range was 1-500 ng/0. 2 ml. The median concentration of serum DNA in breast cancer group was (169. 70+ 124. 10) μg/L, and that of healthy control and breast benign group were (54. 30±36. 84) μg/L and (51. 70±29. 04) μg/L, respectively (P<0. 01). The area under the ROC curve was 0. 899 (95% CI: 0.848-0.951), and the sensitivity was 78. 2%, the specificity was 90% by using the cutoff value of 96. 0 ng/ml. Conclusions The concentration of circulating tumor DNA can be efficiently quantitated by PicoGreen spectrofluorometry, which indicates the potential of clinical applicability in breast cancer diagnosis.
