Objective To investigate the response of multiple myeloma (MM) cells to 8-chloroadenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (8-Cl-cAMP) and the impact of arsenic trioxide (As2O3) on the above reaction.Methods MM-derived cell lines RPMI8226 and U266 were used as in vitro models.Cell apoptosis was evaluated according to cellular morphology and DNA content measured by flow cytometry.Meanwhile,rhodamine 123 (Rh123) staining and flow cytometry assay were used to detect the changes of mitochondrial transmembrane potentials (△ψm) in MM cells before and after the treatment.The synergic effects of 8-Cl-cAMP and As2O3 were evaluated by King' s formula.Results The 8-Cl-cAMP could induce growth inhibition of RPMI8226 and U266 cells in dose and time-related manners.The 8-Cl-cAMP could trigger apoptosis and △ψm collapse in MM cells through cellular morphology and flow cytometry analysis.As2O3 accelerated 8-Cl-cAMP-mediated apoptosis of RPMI8226 cells,but there were few synergic effects observed.Conclusion 8-Cl-cAMP could induce cell proliferation inhibition and apoptosis in MM cells.Mitochondria may be one of targets in 8-Cl-cAMP-mediated apoptosis.Furthermore,As2O3 catalyzes 8-Cl-cAMP-induced apoptosis.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and toxicity of EPOCH regimen in the treatment of elderly patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma. Methods Twenty-eight elderly patients with pathologically diagnosed peripheral T-cell lymphoma were treated with EPOCH regimen, including 96-hour continuous infusion of etoposide 50 mg/m2, epirubincin 12 mg/m2 and vincristin 0.4 mg/m2 on daysl through 4,cyclophosphamide 750 mg/m2 given as intravenous bolus on day 5 and prednisone 60 mg/m2 administered orally on daysl through 5. The EPOCH regimen was repeated very 21 days. Clinical efficacy and safety profiles of EPOCH regimen was systemically reviewed and analysed. Results All the 28 patients received a total of 85 cycles of EPOCH regimen. The median cycles was two courses. Fifteen patients achieved complete response, while five cases obtaining partial response. The overall response rate was 71.4 %. The median survival time was 20 months. In newly diagnosed patients, complete response rate (CR) as well as partial response (PR) and overall response rate (OR) reached 64.7 %, 23.5 % and 88.2 %, respectively, which was significantly higher than that in refractory cases, whose CR, PR and OR were 36.4 %, 9.1% and 45.5 %(λ 2 = 5.99, P ＜0.05). In addition, the median survivalduration of newly diagnosed patients was longer than that of refractory cases, whose median survival time was 24 and 13 months, respectively. The major adverse events was myelosuppression with grade 3-4 neutropenia and thrombocytopenia in 53.6 % and 50.0 % cases.Non-hematologic toxicities were moderate and uncommon. The frequency of adverse effects in de novo patients showed little difference in comparison with that in refractory ones (P＞0.05). Conclusion EPOCH regimen was an effective and well tolerated therapeutic schedule for elderly patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma.

Objective: To investigate the gravity center and spatial clustering of silicosis in Zhejiang Province, so as to provide the reference for improving silicosis prevention and control measures. Methods: Data on cases of silicosis in Zhejiang Province from 2013 to 2022 was collected from the National Occupational Disease and Health Risk Factors Monitoring Information System. The spatial and temporal characteristics of silicosis incidence in Zhejiang Province were analyzed using the gravity center migration and spatial autocorrelation analysis. Results: Totally 2 902 silicosis cases were reported in Zhejiang Province from 2013 to 2022. The reported cases in 2013, 2019 and 2014 ranked the top three, with 545 (18.78%), 373 (12.85%) and 372 (12.82%) cases, respectively. The silicosis cases were predominantly males, accounting for 99.04% (2 874 cases). The main occupation was mining and related industries, accounting for 50.41% (1 463 cases). Gravity migration analysis showed that the gravity center of silicosis incidence was in Shengzhou City in 2013; from 2014 to 2018, it migrated to the southwest, and was located in Dongyang City and Yiwu City; from 2019 to 2020, it migrated to the southeast, and was located in Xianju County and Tiantai County; then from 2021 to 2022, it migrated to the west, and was located in Pan'an County and Xianju County. Spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that there was spatial correlation of silicosis incidence in 2014, 2016, and 2021 (all Moran's I >0, all P<0.05). Ningbo City, Quzhou City, Wenzhou City and Taizhou City were high-high clustering sites. Conclusions The gravity center of silicosis incidence in Zhejiang Province from 2013 to 2022 had a slight migration, and mainly gathered in the central regions. The high-high clustering sites were migrated from Ningbo City and Quzhou City to Taizhou City.

Objective To investigate the effects of arsenic trioxide (AS2O3)on SOCS-1 gene methylation and expression of P-STAT3 in multiple myeloma (MM) cells.Methods MM cell lines U266 and CZ-1 were used as in vitro models.Methylation status of SOCS-1 gene was detected by the methylation specific PCR (MSP)while P-STAT3 protein expression was determined by Western blotting assay before and after AS2O3 treatment.Meanwhile growth inhibition and apoptosis of MM cells were determined by flow cytometry.Results Hypermethylation of SOCS-1 gene was observed in each MM cell line compared with wide type.After exposure to AS2O3,it was shown that SOCS-1 gene was demethylated obviously,meanwhile the expression level of P-STAT3 protein and cell proliferation was inhibited significantly in each cell line.The apoptosis rate was increased.When U266 and CZ-1 were treated with AS2O3 of 0,0.5,1.0,2.0 μmol/L respectively,the total cell apoptosisis ratio of U266 was 0.06％,0.56％,48.96％,61.07％ (X2 =9.19,P ＜ 0.05); and the total cell apoptosisis ratio of CZ-1 was 4.2％,,40.3％,,47.72％,,68.49％ (X2 =8.96,P ＜0.05 ).Conclusion AS2O3 could inhibit JAK/STAT signal transduction pathway by inducing SOCS-1 gene demethylation in MM cells which might be related to cell apoptosis.

Background and purpose:Herpes zoster is a common adverse event associated with the use of bortezomib. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efifcacy of different therapeutic regimens of valacyclovir prophylaxis: continuously administration and intermittent administration. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the efficacy, side effects, expense of valacyclovir and emotional states of 31 patients with multiple myeloma who received bortezomib and valacyclovir prophylaxis. Among them, 14 patients underwent continuously administration of valacyclovir, the other 17 patients underwent intermittent administration. Continuously administration was deifned as daily oral valacyclovir 600 mg without cessation during entire period of bortezomib treatment. Intermittent administration was deifned as patients received valacyclovir at a dose of 600 mg daily during chemotherapy, while discontinue valacyclovir at the intermission time of bortezomib treatment. Results: There were no herpes zoster in patients of 2 arms. Adverse events over grade 3 associated with valacyclovir were not observed. Intermittent administration of valacyclovir showed a superiority of economic beneift. The emotional status were depended on the therapeutic effects of multiple myeloma. For those relapsed or refractory patients, continuously administration of valacyclovir might aggravate depression and anxiety. Conclusion:Intermittent administration of valacyclovir at a dose of 600 mg daily appears to be an effective prophylaxis for herpes zoster in patients receiving bortezomib.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of pegaspargase (PEG-ASP) combined with GEMOX regimen for the treatment of extranodal natural killer (NK) / T-cell lymphoma (ENKL),and to observe the changes of coagulation function.Methods 35 patients with histologically confirmed ENKL were enrolled from January 2010 to December 2014.All patients received 180 cycles of PEG-ASP combined with GEMOX chemotherapy and the efficacies were observed.The coagulation items such as prothrombin time (PT),activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT),fibrinogen (Fbg) and international normalized ratio (INR) were tested respectively on day 1st,day 8th and day 14th of every treatment cycle.Results Among 35 patients,11 patients (31.43 ％) were in stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ,and 24 patients (68.57 ％) were in stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ.All patients were subjected to 180 cycles of PEG-ASP combined with GEMOX chemotherapy,and each case was estimated to receive 6 cycles.The overall response (CR+PR) rate (ORR) was 71.43 ％ (25/35),the ORR was 81.82 ％ (9/11) in stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ group,and 66.67 ％ (16/24) in stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ group.The increased PT and APTT and decreased Fbg were observed on day 8th of the chemotherapy.The increased APTT and decreased Fbg were still observed on day 14th of the chemotherapy.Compared the data of patients one day before chemotherapy with healthy persons,the changes had statistical significance (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions PEG-ASP combined with GEMOX regimen in the treatment of ENKL is safer and more effective compared with traditional chemotherapy,but the abnormal alternations of coagulation might be common during therapy.Dealing with the bleeding risk and supplement with plasma,PPSB or Fbg in time should be necessary.
