Oncogene activation and inactivation of tumor suppressor genes is an important molecular mechanism of tumor formation. HER-2 oncogene is associated with breast cancer invasion and metastasis and prognosis, HER-2 overexpressing breast cancer progresses rapidly and has poor prognosis. In recent years, the emergence of targeted therapeutic monoclonal antibody drug Herceptin which built its structure for the HER-2 has significantly inproved HER-2-positive advanced breast cancer.

Objective To discuss causes and prevention of complications and recurrence following sphincter preserving procedure(SPP) for rectal cancer.Methods A retrospective study on clinical and follow-up data of 375 cases of rectal cancer treated by SPP from January 2000 to January 2006 was carried out.Factors relating complications and recurrence after the operation were analyzed with the Logistic regression.Results A follow-up was conducted for 1～60 months(mean,37 months).The 5-year survival rate was 75.77%,and 79 cases of those followed died.Postoperative complications included anastomotic leakage in 14 cases(3.73%),anastomotic stenosis in 37 cases(9.87%),and anastomotic bleeding in 13 cases(3.47%).Anastomotic tumor recurrence was seen in 25 cases.Logistic regression analysis showed that the distance between the tumor and the dentate line was the most important factor for postoperative complications(P=0.017),and the distance and patient's age were the most important factors for recurrence(P=0.040,P=0.041). Conclusions The distance of tumor and patient's age are the most important factors for complications and recurrence following sphincter preserving procedure for rectal cancer.Strict selection of patients for surgery,normative procedure performance,and proper peri-operative management are essential for the prevention of complications and recurrence.

Objective To study the treatment of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of lower limbs. Methods A series of 82 patients with DVT treated in this hospital from July 1995 to July 2002 were retrospectively analyzed. Sixty-two patients underwent conservative therapy while 20 patients underwent thrombectomy. Results Oedema on diseased limbs subsided in varying degrees in all the patients. However, complete re-perfusion was achieved in only 15 patients, and partial re-perfusion in 9 patients. In the rest of 58 patients, thrombosis was unimproved or recurred, leaving behind the post-thrombotic syndrome. Conclusions Early treatment for acute DVT, conservative therapy or surgical intervention, is effective. Surgery is advisable in most early central type or mixed type patients, whereas conservative therapy in late central type or peripheral type patients. The intravenous interventional therapy is a relatively novel and favorable vascular technique.

Since the study of the mechanism of breast cancer occurrence and development deepens, breast cancer stem cells are receiving more and more attention. Studies have shown that a group of breast cancer stem cells were undifferentiated, with self-renewal and multi-differentiation potential. These cells have a resistance to chemotherapy, radiotherapy, hypoxic, high tumorigenic, high invasion and metastasis. In breast cancer's recurrence,development, and even metastasis, they play an extremely important role. In-depth study of breast cancer stem cell related signal transduction pathways and the regulation of microenvironment are meaningful for clinical targeted treatment of breast cancer. Therefore, we summarized the latest development on breast cancer stem cells in the treatment of breast cancer.

Objective To investigate the role of Huang-qi in balance of TH1/TH2 in asthma on dendritic cells level. Methods DCs from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC) were induced by rhGM-CSF and rhIL-4, and then were identified. The level of IL-12 and IL-10 produced by DCs were de-tected by ELISA assay. After autoreactive T cells, mRNA of T-bet and GATA-3 was measured by RT-PCR. Simultaneously, IL-4 and IFN-γ were determined by flow cytometer. Results After 7 days culture, IL-12 was significantly decreased in asthma group compared to control group (P ＜ 0.01), whereas IL-10 on the opposite. At the 7th day of co-culture with T cells derived from floating cells, the IFN-γ/and T-bet mRNA level in asthma group were significantly decreased than that in control group, whereas IL-4, GATA-3 mRNA level, the ratio of IL-4/IFN-γ and GATA-3/T-bet were apparently increased in asthma group than that in control group(P＜0.01). After Huang-qi treatment, the IFN-γ/and T-bet mRNA level were significantly in-creased, whereas the ratio of IL-4/IFN-γ and GATA-3/T-bet, and the IL-10 level were apparently de-creased, but the level of IL-12, IL-4 and GATA-3 mRNA were not changed significantly. Conclusion DCs in asthma regulated the balance of TH1/TH2 by means of secreting decreased IL-12 and increased IL-10, that made TH2 playing a dominance role which is the key factor in initiating asthma. Huang-qi regulated DCs through decreasing the level of IL-10, and thus decreased the ability of inhibiting the differentiation of TH1 from TH0, that is also inhibiting the differentiation of TH2 from TH0 directly.
