ObjectiveTo compare the clinical efficacies of acupuncture plus TDP lamp versus acupuncture plus moxibustion in treating rheumatoid arthritis.MethodOne hundred and fifty patients were randomly allocated to treatmentand control groups, 75 cases each. The treatment group received acupuncture plus moxibustion and the control group, acupuncture plus TDP radiation.Both groups were treated for two courses. The VAS scores and the clinical sign grades and scores were compared between the two groups before and after treatment.ResultThe VAS score and the clinical sign score improved in both groups after treatment compared with before (P<0.05). The total efficacy rate was 93.3% in the treatment group and 78.7% in the control group; there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). The effect was better in the treatment group than in the control group.ConclusionAcupuncture plus moxibustion is more effective than acupuncture plus TDP lamp in treating rheumatoid arthritis.

Tumor stem cells are responsible for metastasis and relapse of cancer.Transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) plays an important role in the proliferation and differentiation of tumor stem cells.In many cancers such as breast carcinoma,hepatocellular carcinoma,pancreatic carcinoma,lung carcinoma,glioma and gallbladder carcinoma,the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) induced by TGF-β1 can inhibit proliferation of cancer cell,enrich tumor stem cells and increase invasive capability and drug resistance of cancer.

Background and purpose:Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant diseases in women and its malignant proliferation is the major cause of death. To investigate the effects of N-myc downstream regulated gene 2 (NDRG2) on proliferation of breast cancer cells by using two parallel cell lines (MCF-7 and LM-MCF-7) with different metastatic abilities.Methods:The expression level of NDRG2 in breast cancer cells was detected by Western blot. The effects of overexpressing (or down-regulating) NDRG2 on proliferation of breast cancer cells were investigat-ed by lfow cytometry. The expression and location of β-catenin were detected by Western blot and immunolfuorescence respectively. NDRG2 blocking the transcription activity of β-catenin was investigated via co-transfecting MCF-7 cells with NDRG2 siRNA and pCMV-Tcfδ (lacking the portion responsible for the protein binding to DNA).Results:The expression level of NDRG2 was negatively related to the proliferation ability of breast cancer cells. Over-expressing NDRG2 (or down-regulating) via transfecting LM-MCF-7 (or MCF-7) cells with pCMV-NDRG2 (or NDRG2 siRNA) could inhibit (or promote) cell proliferation. Interestingly, the results of Western blot, immunolfuorescence and lfow cytometry revealed that down-regulation of NDRG2 resulted from the down-regulation of β-catenin and blocking its nuclear translocation, which led to losing control of the proliferation of breast cancer cells.Conclusion:NDRG2 inhibit the proliferation of breast cancer cells via down-regulating the expression of β-catenin and blocking its nuclear translo-cation, which is signiifcant for exploring the molecular mechanism of proliferation of breast cancer cells.

Objective To investigate the influence of the lymph node micrometastasis and its clinicopathological features on postoperative disease-free survival rate for patients with gastric cancer.Methods The study included 120 patients with pT1-3NoMo gastric cancer. The relationships between clinicopathological features or carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) positive expression and postoperative disease-free survival rate were analyzed. Results In clinicopathological factors, multivariate analysis identified CEA positive expression was significantly correlated with tumor diameter (P = 0.011 ),depth of tumor invasion (P= 0.027) and lymphatic vessel invasion (P= 0.001 ) in lymph node positively. The average postoperative follow-up was (53.14 ± 16.75) months. There was statistical correlation between the tumor diameter( P = 0.018 ) or depth of tumor invasion ( P = 0.015 ) and postoperative disease-free survival rate. The disease-free survival rate was 90.91% ( 80/88 ), 86.36% ( 19/22 )and 40.00% (4/10) for the lymph node CEA negative,isolated tumor cells (IT Cs) and micrometastasis,respectively. There was significant difference between micrometastasis and the lymph node CEA negative (P= 0.000) or ITCs (P = 0.009), however, the lymph node CEA negative and ITCs was no significant difference (P = 0.438 ). Lymph node micrometastssis of gastric cancer was detected in 10 patients who should belong to stage pN1,the restage rate was 8.33%(10/120). Conclusions If the patients were found micrometastasis in lymph node with high-risk stage pT1-3NoMo gastric cancer for whom chemotherapy may be recommended,because of its high recurrence and poor prognosis.
