Objective: To observe the therapeutic efficiency of adenovirus-mediated interleukin-12 gene(AdmIL-12) and CD40 ligand gene(AdmCD40L) intratumoral transfer in established murine melanoma in vivo. Methods: C57BL/6 mice were inoculated subcutaneously with B16 cells to establish the murine melanoma model. The tumor-bearing mice were injected intratumorally with murine IL-12 gene and CD40L gene recombinant adenovirus. Tumor growth and the survival of tumor-bearing mice were observed. The CTL activity was measured in vitro by lactate dehydrogenase(LDH) release assay. Results: Both AdmIL-12 and AdmCD40L can be efficiently expressed in vitro and in vivo. The treatment with AdmIL-12 could significantly inhibit the tumor growth and prolong the survival period of the tumor-beraing mice. Splenic CTL activity of the mice was also enhanced after IL-12 gene transfer. But the anti-tumor effects of AdmCD40L gene were not significant. In contrast, Co-delivery of IL-12 gene and CD40L gene lead to stronger antitumor effects than IL-12 gene alone. Conclusion: Adenovirus-mediated interleukin-12 gene and CD40 ligand gene transfer together intratumorally has significant therapeutic effects on mice melanoma in vivo.

OBJECTIVEThis study investigates the circadian variation rules of the clock gene Per2 and clock-controlled genes of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), Ki67, c-Myc, and P53 in different stages of carcinogenesis in buccal mucosa carcinoma and their roles in the development of buccal mucosa carcinoma.
METHODSNinety Syrian golden hamsters were housed under. 12 h light/12 h dark cycles. Dimethylbenzanthracene (DMBA) was used to establish the carcinoma model by smearing the golden hamster buccal mucosa. Before DMBA painting and after 6 and 14 weeks, the hamsters were sacrificed at six time points within a period of 24 h (i.e., 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 h after light onset), and the normal buccal mucosa, precancerous lesions, and cancer tissues were simultaneously obtained. Hematoxylin and eosin stained sections were prepared to observe the canceration of each tissue. Real time polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the mRNA expression of Per2, VEGF, Ki67, c-Myc, and P53. Cosine analysis was employed to determine the circadian-rhythm variations of Per2, VEGF, Ki67, c-Myc, and P53 mRNA expression in terms of median, amplitude, and acrophase.
RESULTSThe expression of Per2, VEGF, P53, and c-Myc mRNA in three different stages appeared with circadian rhythms (P<0.05), whereas the Ki67 mRNA was expressed with circadian rhythm only in normal and precancerous lesion stages (P<0.05). The midline-estimating statistic of rhythms (MESORs) of Per2 and P53 mRNA were significantly down-regulated with the development of cancer (P<0.05), whereas the MESORs of VEGF, c-Myc, and Ki67 mRNA were up-regulated (P<0.05). The amplitude of P53 mRNA significantly decreased with the development of cancer (P<0.05). Moreover, compared with the normal group, the amplitudes of Per2, VEGF, Ki67, and c-Myc mRNA significantly increased in precancerous lesions and cancer tissue (P<0.05). In precancerous stage, the acrophases of Per2, VEGF, and c-Myc mRNA were earlier than that in the normal group, whereas that of Ki67 and P53 mRNA were delayed.
CONCLUSIONThe circadian-rhythm characteristics of the clock gene Per2 and clock-controlled gene expression of VEGF, Ki67, c-Myc, and P53 mRNA have changed with the occurrence and development of carcinoma.

PurposeTo explore the significance of dual energy CT in differential diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma metastatic lymph nodes and lymph node tuberculosis in the neck.Material and Methods Twenty-five patients with a total of 62 cervical enlarged lymph nodes confirmed with squamous cell carcinoma metastasis or lymph node tuberculosis by pathology underwent dual energy enhanced CT scan. Iodine coverage value of two different kinds of pathological properties of lymph nodes was measured. The trend of the spectrum curve was observed and the energy spectrum curve slope of two kinds of lymph nodes were compared. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of energy spectrum curve slope in differential diagnosis were analyzed. Results Of all 62 lymph nodes, there were 32 squamous cell carcinoma metastatic lymph nodes and 30 lymph node tuberculosis. There were statistic significance in the iodine coverage between the squamous cell carcinoma metastatic lymph nodes and lymph node tuberculosis (t=3.806 and 3.698,P<0.05). In the range from 60 keV to 180 keV, CT value of the two kinds of lymph nodes decreased with increase of keV value. It showed the higher the keV value the less CT value decreased, with the energy spectrum curve of drop type. The area of the iodine coverage was 0.756 with the differential diagnostic sensitivity of 56% and the specificity of 80%. The area of energy spectrum curve slope was 0.898 with the differential diagnostic sensitivity of 76% and the specificity of 85%.Conclusion The iodine coverage value and the energy spectrum curve slope have significance in differential diagnosis of the cervical squamous cell carcinoma metastatic lymph nodes and lymph node tuberculosis. The energy spectrum curve slope is superior to the iodine coverage value in differential diagnosis.
