1.Advance of radioiodine antagonist related gene of differentiated thyroid carcinoma
Journal of International Oncology 2016;43(3):204-206
Thyroid carcinomas are the most common endocrine malignancies,and the overwhelming majority of them is differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC).The major therapies of DTCs are surgical resection,thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) inhibitory treatment and iodine radioisotope (131I) treatment.131I has been widely applied for the diagnosis and treatment of DTC,however,part of these patients may reduce or loss the uptake capacity of 131I owing to the alteration of sodium-iodide symporter gene,BRAF,paired box 8,microRNA and cytokeratin 19.These genes are particularly important in the treatment of DTC,which can be used as biomarkers in the treatment efficacy evaluation.

PURPOSE Anti-cancer drug treatment induces cell death by apoptosis, whether the gene p53 undergoes mutant changes is found to have a close relationship with anti-cancer drugs. The aim of this work is to investigate the role that p53 plays in the 5-FU-induced apoptosis of colorectal cancer cells in vitro. METHODS Thirty-nine col-orectal cancer samples from patients were treated with 5-FU (10?g/ml) and folinic acid (5?g/ml. 10?g/ml) in vitro, using the in situ Terminal Deoxynucleotidyl Transferase assay (TDT) to detect the chemosensitivity. p53 mutations from tumor DNA were detected, after amplication by PCR of exons 5 to 8. by non-radioactive single-strand conformation polymorphism(PCR-SSCP). RESULTS p53-gene mutations were observed in 43. 6% (17/39) of colorectal carcinomas. When TDT assay was used to detect the tumor apoptotic rate, cells with mutated p53 had less chemosensitivity than those without (16. 4% ?4. 89% vs 26. 6%? 6. 80% P

Objective To discuss the application of sperm mobility parameters in semen quality analysis. Methods The semen samples from 2343 outpatient males were examinated following theWorld Health Organization (WHO) guide, and sperm mobility parameters were also evaluated.Results There are significant difference of all sperm mobility parameters between normal and unnormal semen groups. As spermatozoa vialibity reduced, VCL、VSL、VAP、MAD、ALH、STR had decreased and BCF had increased significantly. Compared with the group which spermatozoa density and activity were both normal, LIN、STR had reduced and MAD、BCF had increased in the small quantity sperm group. All parameters were significant difference besides ALH in the lower sperm activity group. And for that in the group which spermatozoa density and activity were both unnormal, only MAD and ALH were no significant difference. Conlusion Sperm mobility parameters may serve as key parameters of semen quality analysis and play an important role in evaluating the ability of male fertility.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of interventional procedures in the treatment of acute pulmonary embolism(PE). Methods Pulmonary arterial thrombolytic therapy, suction and fragmentation of thromhi, anti-spasm, and balloon dilation were performed in eighteen cases with clinically highly suspected PE confirmed by emergent pulmonary artery angiography beforehand. Wedged pulmonary arterial pressure, pulmonary recanalization rate, the display ratio of distal pulmonary capillary net, blood gas analysis, blood oxygen saturation, and the improvement of clinical symptoms and signs were used for evaluation of the effectiveness. Seventeen of the alive cases with dislodgement of deep vein thrombi of the lower extremities were confirmed for the formation of PE and then thrombolytic treatment of the thrombotic deep vein was performed after the placement of inferior vena cava filter. Results Pulmanory artery angiographies showed embolism of the pulmonary arterial trunks or more than two of the branches. The post-treatment pulmonary patency reached 80%-90% in three cases, 90%-95% in eleven cases and 100% in five cases. The display ratio of distal pulmonary capillary net was over 90% in all the cases. Wedged pulmonary arterial pressure decreased to below 25 mmHg in thirteen cases, and to 25-30 mmHg in five cases. Blood oxygen saturation rate improved immediately to 90%-95% in ten cases and to 95%-100% in eight cases. Cough, hemoptysis, dyspnea, and chest pain were completely relieved in thirteen cases and significantly relieved in five cases. Digestive track bleeding was complicated in one case. Conclusions Pulmonary artery angiography is the golden standard for the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism. Interventional therapy is very effective for acute pulmonary embolism, which can significantly reduce the mortality rate.

Purpose To detect high mobility group protein A2 (HMGA2) expression in breast cancer, and to analyze its relationship with clinicopathological features and the levels of HMGA2 in different molecular subtypes of breast carcinomas. Methods An immu-nohistochemical study was undertaken for measuring the levels of HMGA2 in 58 breast carcinomas. Results ( 1 ) The expression of HMGA2 was 0, 62. 5%, 60. 0%, 100. 0% and 80. 0% in Lum A, Lum B, HER-2-OE, basal-like breast carcinoma (BLBC) and un-classification phenotype respectively ( triple negative breast cancer, 92. 3%) . High expression of HMGA2 was associated with the tri-ple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) subtypes (P<0. 01). (2) An association was identified between high expression of HMGA2, and high tumor grade, lymph node metastasis (P<0. 05), positive Ki-67, CK5/6 and EGFR (P<0. 05), negative ER and PR (P<0. 01), but no association was observed for tumor size and patients’age. Conclusion An association is identified between high ex-pression, and high tumor grade, lymph node metastasis, positive Ki-67, EGFR and CK5/6, negative ER and PR, that means a high expression of HMGA2 is associated with an adverse outcome in breast cancer. High expression of HMGA2 are associated with the TNBC subtypes. Thus recognizing HMGA2 as a rational target in TNBC. The results of the study have implications for therapeutic target iden-tification and the design of future clinical trials for TNBC.
