Objective To investigate the inhibition effect of silencing Ku80 gene combined with irradiation on growth of esophageal cancer xenografs. Methods shRNA-Ku80 vector was constructed.The expression of Ku80 protein was inhibited by shRNA-Ku80 vector by using Western blotting. 20 BALB/c nude mice were randomly divided into 4 groups, including control group, radiation group, shRNA-Ku80 group and combined group. The growth of esophageal cancer xenografs was observed. The expression of Ku80 was examined in esophageal cancer xenografs by IHC. Results Effective target sequence was selected. The growth of esophageal cancer xenografs was inhibited by shRNA-H2 and radiation, especially in combined group. The inhibition rate of growth in three groups above was 32.0% , 39. 9% and 68. 9% ,respectively. The expression of Ku80 was reduced to 58% by shRNA-H2 in esophageal cancer xenografs ( t = 3.77, P < 0. 05 ). Conclusions Combination of silencing Ku80 and radiation could enhance radiotherapeut effect of esophageal cancer xenografs.

Objective To study the role of KuS0 in the treatment of esophageal cancer through inhibiting the Ku80 expression by shRNA. Methods shRNA-KuS0 vector was constructed. The effectiveness and feasibility of RNA interference were confirmed by Western blot and RT-PCR methods. The cell sensitivity to ganuna-rays was studied by colony formation assay. The effects of shRNA-Ku80 on cell cycle were observed by flow cytometry analysis. Results ShRNA-Ku80 vector was constructed successfully. Inhibition of Ku80 expression by shRNA enhanced the sensitivity of esophageal cancer cells to gamma-rays, shRNA K3 or shRNA H2 showed higher percentage of cells in G2/M phase (61.8% vs 28.6% ;64.3% vs 28.6%). Conclusions Inhibitions of Ku80 expression by shRNA play a role in the treatment of esophageal cancer. Ku80 might be a new target of tumor treatment.

Objective In order to explore the possibility of autologous transplantation of olfactory mucosa for spinal cord repair,the changes of autologous olfactory mucosa being transplanted into spinal cord and the effect of promoting axon regeneration in adult rats were investigated. Methods Forty male adult rats were divided into two groups randomly:olfactory mucosa transplantation and control groups.Olfactory mucosa (1*!mm+2) was taken from the posterior region of nasal septum,and this graft was transplanted into the posterior funiculus of cervical 1 segment of spinal cord and destructed the corticospinal tract(2*!mm?1^5*!mm).The control graft was derived from the respiratory lamina and then was grafted into the corresponding lesion.After being survived for 4-6 weeks,the animals were killed,the transplanted site was sectioned horizontally,immunofluorescence double labeled with the neurofilament(NF) and anti-NGFR-p75,investigated under the confocal microscope.Another set of slice was used immunohistochemistry to investigate the olfactory mucosa how to integrate with the surrounding tissue. Results The control lesions have the obvious hollow,no p75-positive reaction in the respiratory lamina and no NF-positive fibers grew through it;olfactory mucosa group showed that olfactory mucosa which is labeled p75-positive healed up with surrounded tissue,the hollow declined markedly,the labeled olfactory ensheathing cells(OECs) soakage into the nerve tissue.OECs induced a fine,unbranched,elongative growth of the cut CST axons.The axons were regenerated through the graft and continued to reenter into the caudal host part.Conclusion Autologous olfactory mucosa may be the donor which could repair the spinal cord injury for clinical situations.

Objective To compare the setup errors of two position fixation, head-neck-shoulders immobilization system and trunk immobilization system in radiotherapy for esophageal cancer, and to provide technical guidance for the fixed modes and determination of plan target volume (PTV) in the intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) of esophageal cancer. Methods 97 thoracic esophageal cancer patients treated with radiotherapy were collected and divided into two groups: head-neck-shoulders group (51 patients immobilized with head-neck-shoulders immobilization system) and trunk group (the other 46 patients immobilized with trunk immobilization system). Before the weekly radiotherapy, all the patients received cone-beam CT (CBCT) scan to get the setup errors of X axis (left and right), Y axis (head and foot) and Z axis (front and back) on line. Results In the head-neck-shoulders group, the errors in X, Y and Z direction were (0.333 ±0.400) cm, (0.333 ±0.291) cm and (0.238 ±0.256) cm, respectively. In trunk group, the errors were (0.327±0.255) cm, (0.582±0.501) cm and (0.189±0.154) cm, respectively. There were statistically significant differences in the setup errors in Y axis and Z axis between the head-neck-shoulders group and the trunk group (P< 0.05). Conclusions In the radiotherapy for thoracic esophageal carcinoma, there is no difference in the X axis setup error between head-neck-shoulders system and trunk immobilization system. The Y axis setup error of head-neck-shoulders group is less than that of the trunk group. The Z axis setup error of trunk group is less than the head-neck-shoulders group.

Objective To analyze the direct and indirect effects of influencing factors on suicide ideation among college students based on the structural equation model. Methods 1505 college students were investigated with ASLEC, Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire, SSRS, QSA and BDI. Results Incidence rate of college students' suicidal ideations during the past year was 6.67%. The goodness of fit for the structural equation model was satisfactory and 3 major indices( x2/df = 2.23, GFI = 0. 982, RMSEA = 0. 029 ) had met corresponding requirements. The depression was directly influencing factor on suicide ideation, while four factors including passive coping style, social support, positive coping style and suicide attitude, had indirect impacts. Negative life event not only directly affected suicide ideation, but also had indirect effects. According to the percentages of their contribution, the risk factors were ranked as follows:depression (41.08%), negativity life event (35.35%) and passive coping style (6.05%). Similarly, the top protective factor was: social support ( 11.94% ), followed by positive coping style (4.94%) and suicide attitude (0.63%). Conclusion Depression is an important risk factor of suicide,and has a direct impact. So, not only strengthen the mental health of college students, but also train students to face up the difficulties with a positive style, and make the college students get social supports sufficiently.

Objective To discuss the application effect of zero OT-U type bionics urine bag in neurology critically ill patients to reduce the indwelling catheterization complications. Methods A total of 50 cases of critically ill patients with indwelling catheter were chosen from July 2014 to May 2015. They were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group with 25 cases in each group according to the time of admission. The control group used common urine bags and the experimental group adopted bionics urine bag. The excessive urine, urinary tract infection, incontinence associated dermatitis, the time with indwelling urinary catheter,replacing the urine tube to urinate in two groups were compared. Results The rate of excessive urine, urinary tract infection, incontinence associated dermatitis and the time with indwelling urinary catheter in the experimental group were 12%(3/25), 4%(1/25), 32%(8/25) and (10.120 ±3.295) days, while the results were 84%(21/25), 48%(12/25), 80%(20/25) and (28.040±9.480) days in the control group, the differences were different (χ2=27.931,7.741, 7.018, t=8.927, P<0.01). The cases of voluntary micturition, induced micturition and secondary catheterization were 17, 5 and 3, and the results in the control group were 3, 12 and 10, the differences were were different ( χ2=16.452, P < 0.01). Conclusions The zero OT-U type bionics urine bag has a bigger superiority in reducing the related complications in neurology critically ill patients with indwelling catheter. At the same time , the zero OT-U type bionics urine bag reduced the patient's pain, improved the family satisfaction and reduced the pressure on care and treatment.
