The renal cell cancer stem cells determine the growth and proliferation of renal cell carcino-ma.So far some possible markers have been identified in renal cell carcinoma,including octamer binding factor 4 (Oct4),CD133,CD105,ATP-binding cassette subfamily B member 1 transporter gene (ABCB1),CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4),but these markers are still controversial.Therefore,for the more effective treatments of metastatic renal cell carcinoma,studying a generally applicable marker for renal cell carcinoma is necessary.

Objective To identify iron nutritional status in very low birth weight infants (VLBWI) and its influence factors.Methods A total of 115 babies admitted from January to December 2014 were included in the study.Serum ferritin of new born infants was analyzed.The clinical data of gestational age,birth weight,hemoglobin,iatrogenic blood loss,cumulative volume of blood transfusion and pregnancy maternal diseases(diabetes,hypertension and anemia) were analyzed.Results The serum ferritin of 115 VLBWI were 100.8 to 210.3 μg/L,the average were(140.32 ± 13.21) μg/L;the minimum serum ferritin of babies born ＜ 32 weeks gestational age were(124.5 ± 31.3) μg/L.Smaller the VLBWI gestational age,the lower the basic baby serum ferritin(F =14.367,P =0.000).More severe the maternal anemia,the lower the basic baby serum ferritin levels [no anemia:(230.9 ± 68.7) μg/L,mild anemia:(189.5 ± 75.3) μg/L,moderate anemia:(133.5 ± 88.1) μg/L,severe anemia:(122.2 ± 56.8) μg/L;P ＜ 0.05].Lower the level of hemoglobin,the lower the basic level of serum ferritin(P ＜ 0.05).Volume of blood transfusion had a huge impact on the last serum ferritin levels (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Improvement of the basic baby serum ferritin level in the early stage is useful to ensure the VLBWI iron reserves.It is necessary to regularly monitor serum ferritin during hospitalization and even after discharge.

Objective To explore the effect of gemcitabine combined with cisplatin on ER , MMP-9 and estrogen in patients with stage III breast cancer.Methods 93 patients with breast cancer were collected and randomly divided into control group and experimental group.Two groups were all under breast cancer surgery, control group was treated with cisplatin chemotherapy,1st day of intravenous infusion of cisplatin 90 mg/m2 , 21 days for a course of treatment, continuous treatment of 6 courses.Experimental group were treated with cisplatin combined with gemcitabine chemotherapy , 1st and 8th days of intravenous infusion of 1000 mg/m2 gemcitabine, 3 ~5d, intravenous drip of cisplatin 90 mg/m2 , every 28 days a cycle, continuous administration of 2 cycles,After treatment, the clinical efficacy of the two groups, the level of ER, MMP-9, estrogen and the incidence of adverse reactions were compared.Results Compared with before treatment,the levels of serum MMP-9,E1, E2, ER were decreased (P<0.05), and the level of LH and FSH were increased (P<0.05) of two group post-treatment.Compared with control group post-treatment, the levels of serum ER, MMP-9, E1, E2 were lower in experimental group (P<0.05), and the LH and FSH levels were higher (P <0.05).The incidence of adverse reactions of experimental group was 6.38%, and control group was 15.22%, the incidence of adverse reactions in the two groups was no significant difference . Conclusion Gemcitabine combined with cisplatin in the treatment of patients with breast cancer has a significant effect, and can improve the clinical symptoms, reduce the serum ER, E1, MMP-9, E2 levels, improve FSH, LH level.
