Background and purpose: Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is uncommon, and frequently diagnosed at late stage. Chemotherapy is the main treatment method for advanced SBA. Despite recent progress in SBA therapy, no standard regimen has been established up to now, and new active regimen is expected to improve the outcome of this disease. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efifcacy and safety of S-1/oxaliplatin for the treatment of advanced SBA. Methods:In a retrospective study, clinical characteristics and outcomes of 29 patients with advanced SBA were collected and analyzed. Patients received oral S-1 40 mg/m2, twice daily, d1-14, oxaliplatin was administered intravenously 130 mg/m2 on the ifrst day of every cycle, repeated every 3 weeks. Efifcacy and toxicity were evaluated after at least two consecutive cycles. Results:All patients were evaluated for efifcacy and safety. The objective response and disease control rates were 37.9%and 65.5%, respectively. The median progression-free survival and overall survival were 5.4 months (95%CI:3.6-7.2) and 13.2 months (95%CI:6.7-19.7), respectively. In univariate analysis, the following factors were signiifcantly associated with poor outcome:not ifrst line chemotherapy setting, ECOG performance status>1 and sites of metastasis>2 (Log-rank, P<0.05). The treatment related adverse events were mild and manageable. Myelosuppression, gastrointestinal reaction, fatigue, sensory neuropathy and rash were the most common toxicities. Conclusion:This study was the ifrst to report the efifcacy of S-1 combined with oxaliplatin for advanced SBA. S-1/oxaliplatin may be effective and safe for advanced SBA and worthy of further study.

Objective To establish a novel method to screen for anti-varicella-zoster virus (VZV) compounds with our previously generated reporter cell line for VZV, MV9G. MethodsMV9G cells were directly infected with cell-free virus of Oka vaccine strain (vOka) for 2 hours( CFV direct-infection) or cocultured with vOka-infected MeWo cells containing cell-associated virus for 48 hours (CAV co-culture) to promote expression of the reporter gene firefly luciferase. Antiviral compounds including heparin, mannose-6-phosphate( M-6-P), acyclovir( ACV ), resveratrol and roscovitine were added in the medium before or after the virus infection. Inhibitory effects( IC50 ) of the antiviral compounds were analyzed by comparing firefly luciferase activities of MV9G cells in the presence of antiviral compounds with those in the absence. Results Antiviral compounds inhibited luciferase activities of MV9G cells activated by CFV direct-infection and/or CAV co-culture in different levels. The reductions of luciferase activities statistically correlated with those of viral foci shown by immunostaining with a monoclonal antibody against VZV immediate early 62 antigens (IE62) in controls. Among these compounds, heparin, M-6-P, and 2.5 μmol/L of roscovitine inhibited CFV-activated more strongly than CAV-activated luciferase activities, whereas ACV and resveratrol inhibited CAV-activated more strongly than CFV-activated luciferase activities. Cell-associated ACV-resistant strains,Kanno and rOka YSR, activated luciferase activities of MV9G cells, too. However, the inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of ACV to the ACV-resistant strains were much higher than those to the ACV-sensitive strains,pOka and CaGu. ConclusionThe CFV direct-infection and CAV co-culture assays were useful to screen for antiviral compounds targeting the early and late phases of VZV infection, respectively. The VZV reporter cell-based assays may provide a simple, rapid, sensitive, and high-throughput method to screen for anti-VZV compounds.

Objective: To observe the influence on IL-1β and IL-2 in rat models with rheumatoid arthritis after moxibustion on Shenshu (BL 23) and Zusanli (ST 36) points, and to discuss the mechanism of moxibustion. Methods: Fifty male Wistar rats were divided randomly into 5 groups,control group, model group, drug group, moxibustion group, and laser group, 10 for each. Four groups except the normal group were built on the model of rheumatoid arthritis. The changes of body weight and plantar circumference were measured and the level of IL-1β、 IL-2 in sera were examined by ELISA. Results: Compared with the model group, the weight and plantar circumference of rats in the moxibustion group were improved significantly after treatment (P<0.01), and the improvement of plantar circumference also had significant differences compared with the drug group and the laser group (P<0.05). The level of IL- 1β、 IL-2 in sera were down regulated in the moxibustion group and the laser group, which had statistical differences compared with the model group (P<0.05), but no statistical differences were found when comparing with the drug group. Conclusion: Moxibustion obviously improves the toe tumefaction of the rats with rheumatoid arthritis, which is better than CO2 laser of 10.6μm. On the aspect of decreasing the amount of IL-1β、 IL-2, CO2 laser of 10.6 μm is similar with moxibustion.

Objective: To observe the effects of moxibustion therapy at Shenshu (BL 23) and Zusanli (ST 36) of rats with induced rheumatoid arthritis (RA) on the serumal intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICMA-1) and the pathological tissue, to discuss the mechanism of the warming and activating effect of moxibustion. Methods: After establishing the RA rats model, the induced rats were treated with moxibustion therapy on the acupoint Shenshu (BL 23) and Zusanli (ST 36), followed by analyzing the pathological section of the ankle of the hind limb and testing the ICAM-1 content with ELISA. Results: The plantar circumferences of the induced rat increased significantly compared with the rats in the control group (P<0.01), accompanying with the increase of the synovial layer, the erosion of phlogocytes to chondrocytes and the specific increase of ICAM-1 content. After the moxibustion therapy, the plantar circumferences decreased significantly (P<0.01) while the synovial layer tended to reduce. In addition, there was no pathological damage of the articular cartilage and the ICAM content decreased with significant deviation (P<0.01), compared to the model group. Conclusion: It was concluded that moxibustion therapy could inhibit the arthrosynovitis and hyperplasia, ameliorate the erosion of phlogocyte to cartilage, prevent articular periosteal lesions and delay the pathological course. The warming and activating effect of moxibustion therapy may involve the inhibition of the formation of ICAM-1 and pannus.
