Objective:To investigate the expressions and significance of tyrosine kinase receptor EphA2 and its ligand ephrinA1 in human malignant gliomas and their correlation with tumor angiogenesis. Methods:The expressions of EphA2, ephrinA1, and CD105-stained microvessel density (MVD) were detected via immunohistochemical assay in 62 glioma tissues and 8 normal brain tissues. The correlation between EphA2 and ephrinA1 expression and microvessel counts in the glioma tissues were assessed. Results:Immunohistochemical staining results revealed that variable levels of EphA2 and MVD expression were significantly higher than that of the normal brain samples. Statistical difference was observed in EphA2 and MVD expressions between human gliomas and normal brain samples (P<0.01). The positive rate of EphA2 and MVD expressions was significantly higher in high-grade gliomas (WHO III-IV) than that in low-grade gliomas (WHO I-II) (P<0.01). EphrinA1 was expressed at low levels in most malignant gliomas, and the increased ephrinA1 expression was associated with lower-grade histology. MVD was significantly positively correlated with EphA2 expression (r=0.713, P<0.01) and significantly negatively correlated with ephrinA1 expression (r=-0. 772, P<0.01). EphA2 was significantly negatively correlated with ephrinA1 expression (r=-0.912, P<0.01). Conclusion:Specifically over-expressed EphA2 and its low-expressed ligand ephrinA1 in malignant gliomas may be closely correlated with the invasion and malignant degree of gliomas. Cooperation is involved in the angiogenesis and has an important function in the initiation and progression of gliomas.

Objective To investigate the micminnammatory state and its relationship with atherosclerosis and cardiac function in patients on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis(CAPD). Methods Sixty-seven CAPD patients,27 non-dialytic stage 5 chronic kidney disease(CKD 5)patients and 27 gender and age matched healthy controls wore enrolled in this cross-sectional study.Clinical data and biochemical parameters were collected.Serum interleukin-6(IL-6)and IL-10 levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).High-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)was measured by immunoturbidimetry.Prevalence of atherosclerosis was detected by carotid uhrasonography while cardiac function was detected by echocardiography. Results Serum levels of inflammatory biomarkers were elevated significantly in CAPI)and CKD 5 patients as compared with healthy controls[IL-6(ng/L):2.400,1.515 vs 0.698;IL-10(ng/L):1.988,1.958 vs 0.277;hs-CRP(mg/L):1.090,1.345 vs 0].Left ventricular mass index(LVMI),myocardial performance index(Tei index 0.75±0.31,0.66±O.27 vs 0.52±0.23)in CAPD and CKD 5 patients increased significantly.The prevalence of carotid artery atherosclerosis and left ventricular hypertrophy(LVH)in CAPD and CKD 5 patients was significantly higher than that in healthy controls.No significant difference of the ultrasonic parameters was found between CAPD and CKD 5 patients.In CAPD patients,IL-6 was positively correlated with Tei index,whereas IL-10 was negatively correlated with INMI and was positively correlaled with ejection fraction(EF).In a multiple regression model,IL-6,self-rating depressive scale(SDS)score and pulse pressure were independent predictors of carotid artery atherosclerosis.Similarly,IL-6 and primary hypertension were independent correlates of Tei index in CAPD patients. Conclusions Microinflammatory state exists in either non-dialytic CKD 5 patients or CAPD patients and it is associated with atherosclerosis and cardiac distunetion.IL-6 is an independent risk factor of atherosclerosis and increased Tei index in CAPD patients.

Objective: To observe the effects of miR-204 on the proliferation and invasion of retinoblastoma (RB) cells and to explore the potential regulatory mechanism. Methods: The expression level of miR-204 in RB cell lines (Y79, SO-RB50, and HXO-Rb44) as well as in normal human retinal pigment epithelial cell line hTERT RPE-1 was detected using qRT-PCR. The Y79 cells were divided into two groups (negative control group and miR-204 group) by respectively transfecting Y79 cells with NC-mimics and miR-204 mimics using liposome transfection method. The effects of miR-204 on Y79 cell proliferation was detected with CCK-8 assay; while the effect of miR-204 on migration and invasion of Y79cellsweredeterminedbycellscratchassayandTranswellassay,respectively.Besides, thepotentialtargetgeneofmiR-204waspredictedbybioinformatics;and the influence of miR-204 on the expression of high mobility group AT-hook 2 gene (HMGA2) at both mRNA and protein levels was detected using qRT-PCR and Western blotting, respectively. Results: miR-204 expression in RB cell lines Y79, SO-RB50 and HXO-Rb44 was remarkably lower than that in normal human retinal pigment epithelial cell line hTERT RPE-1 (P<0.01). miR-204 expression in Y79 cells was markedly up-regulated after transfection with miR-204 mimics (P<0.01) along with significantly reduced cell proliferation, migration and invasion capacities (all P<0.01), and mRNA and protein expressions of HMGA2 were also outstandingly reduced (P<0.01). Conclusion: miR-204 is lowly expressed in RB cell lines; in addition, miR-204 over-expression can suppress RB cell proliferation, migration and invasion, the mechanism of which might be related to down-regulation of the expression of HMGA2.

Objective:To investigate the optimal bladder filling volume in the 3D brachytherapy of postoperative cervical cancer.Methods:Totally 111 early cervical cancer patients with positive incisal margins or insufficient safety boundaries were included. The normal saline 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, and 100 ml were filled into their bladders, and accordingly six groups were determined, and 66, 69, 66, 69, 72, 56 person-times in each group, respectively. The CT-based simulation positioning was performed. According to the ICRU 89 report, high-risk clinical target volume and organs at risk such as bladder and rectum were delineated. The Oncentra planning system was used to prepare the treatment program. The high-risk clinical target volume (HR-CTV), D90, and the D2 cm 3 and D1 cm 3 of organs at risk under different volumes were recorded. Results:Compared to the 60 ml group, the volume and dosage of HR-CTV in the groups of 50, 70, 80, 90, and 100 ml had no significant difference ( P>0.05). The D2 cm 3 and D1 cm 3 of the bladder and rectum of patients in these groups significantly decreased, and the difference was statistically significant ( tbladder = 3.21, 5.83, 2.89, 12.95, 7.96, Pbladder = 0.031, 0.010, 0.041, 0.000, 0.001; trectum = 2.94, 4.66, 2.53, 5.89, 4.13, Prectum = 0.037, 0.024, 0.049, 0.005, 0.028). The pairwise comparison among these groups except for the 60 ml group showed that the volume and dosage of HR-CTV and the D2 cm 3 and D1 cm 3 of bladder and rectum had no significant difference ( P > 0.05). Moreover, the D2 cm 3 and D1 cm 3 of sigmoid colon and small intestine of these groups had no significant difference ( P > 0.05). Conclusions:In the 3D brachytherapy of postoperative early cervical cancer, a bladder filling volume of 60 ml can ensure the volume and dose of HR-CTV and can protect the bladder and rectum compared with other filling volumes.
