Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) poses serious health problems in Southern China and yet the molecular mechanism of the carcinogenesis remains unclear. We used modern proteomic technologies to compare the protein expression profiles between the NPC cell lines (HNE1 and CNE1 ) and an immortalized nasopharyngeal epithelial cell line NP69 to identify cancer related proteins. Cell lysates were separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2 DE ) and analyzed by PDQuest software. The differentially expressed proteins were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization tandem time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF/TOF-MS). We discovered 15 up-regulated proteins and 18 down-regulated proteins in both HNE1 and CNE1 cell lines compared with NP69. These proteins are correlative with various functions, such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, cancer metastasis, metabolism, cytoskeleton and signal transduction. Western blotting analyses were further carried out to verify the differential expression of individual proteins. Several identified proteins in our research might be used as potential molecular markers to understand the molecular mechanism of NPC development and metastasis, and might be used as candidate targets for NPC treatments.

Differential proteome profiles of human lung squamous carcinoma tissue compared to paired tumor-adjacent normal bronchial epithelial tissue were established and analyzed by means of immobilized pH gradient-based two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-D PAGE) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). The results showed that well-resolved, reproducible 2-DE patterns of human lung squamous carcinoma and adjacent normal bronchial epithelial tissues were obtained under the condition of 0.75-mg protein-load. The average deviation of spot position was 0.733+/-0.101 mm in IEF direction, and 0.925+/-0.207 mm in SDS-PAGE direction. For tumor tissue, a total of 1241+/-88 spots were detected, 987+/-65 spots were matched with an average matching rate of 79.5%. For control, a total of 1190+/-72 spots were detected, and 875+/-48 spots were matched with an average matching rate of 73.5%. A total of 864+/-34 spots were matched between tumors and controls. Forty-three differential proteins were characterized: some proteins were related to oncogenes, and others involved in the regulation of cell cycle and signal transduction. It is suggested that the differential proteomic approach is valuable for mass identification of differentially expressed proteins involved in lung carcinogenesis. These data will be used to establish human lung cancer proteome database to further study human lung squamous carcinoma.

Objective:To compare the accuracy of 11 ultrasound parameters prediction formulas for fetal body mass,and to explore the effect of gestational weight gain(GWG)on the accuracy of ultrasound prediction of fetal body mass.Methods:A total of 502 single and full-term postpartum women who gave birth from August 2020 to December 2020 at Jinshan Hospital,Fudan University were collected.The gestational weight gain,fetal ultrasound measurement indicators within 7 days before delivery,and newborn birth weight were calculated and analyzed.The accuracy of multiple ultrasound prediction formulas were calculated and analyzed.According to the criteria for weight gain during pregnancy,the reasonable weight gain during pregnancy was 12.5-18.0 kg for singleton pregnancies with pre-pregnancy(body mass index)BMI<18.5 kg/m2,11.5-16.0 kg for those with BMI 18.5-24.9 kg/m2,7.0-11.5 kg for those with BMI 25.0-29.9 kg/m2,and 5.0-9.0 kg for those with BMI≥30.0 kg/m2.The cases were divided into the group with insufficient GWG(125 cases),the normal group(202 cases),and the group with too much GWG(175 cases)to analyze the effect of different GWG on the accuracy of ultrasound pre-diction of fetal body mass.Results:Among the 11 ultrasound parameter formulas for predicting fetal body mass,the HadlockⅢformula predicted fetal body mass with an absolute error of 186.64±149.28 g and a relative error of(5.52±4.18)%,which was the smallest error among 11 prediction formulas,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).The absolute and relative error compliance rates were 72.31%,86.25%,respectively,both of which were the highest,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).When the HadlockⅢformula was used to predict birth weight in the insufficient GWG group,the normal group,and the group with too much GWG,the absolute errors were 190.23±136.69 g,148.12±99.39 g,228.54±189.57 g,and the relative errors were(5.95±4.25)%,(4.40±2.78)%,(6.49±5.09)%,respectively,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusions:The accuracy of Hadlock Ⅲ formula in predicting fetal body mass is better than that of other formulas,but its accuracy can be affected by GWG,and it is necessary to consider multiple as-pects when estimating fetal body mass in clinical practice.

Objective To evaluate the safety, feasibility and short-term outcomes of single-direction gastric mobilization under 3D-laparoscopy in minimally invasive esophagectomy for the treatment of esophageal cancer. Methods From February 2018 to December 2019, 118 consecutive patients who underwent minimally invasive McKeown esophagectomy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma in our hospital were included. There were 94 males and 24 females with an average age of 53.7 (41–77) years. They were divided into two groups based on the methods of gastric mobilization: a traditional dissociation (TD) group (n=55) and a single-direction mobilization (MD) group (n=63). The clinical data of the two groups were compared. Results Enbloc resection and a negative resection margin were obtained in all patients. There was no postoperative mortality or incision complication. The rate of postoperative complications was 22.9%. There was no significant difference in the spleen injury, gastric injury, conversion to open surgery, abdominal reoperation as well as cervical anastomotic leakage between the two groups (P>0.05). It took significantly less time in the MD group compared with the TD group (P<0.05). There was an obvious statistical difference in the incidence of gastric mobilization related complications between the MD group (1.6%, 1/63) and TD group (12.7%, 7/55, P<0.05). Conclusion Application of single-direction gastric mobilization under 3D-laparoscopy in minimally invasive esophagectomy for the treatment of esophageal cancer is safe and easy to perform with a satisfactory short-term outcome.
