Objective To explore the significance of serum squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC-Ag) in the diagnose of recurrent squamous cell carcinoma of cervix, and seek an effective approach to monitor tumor recurrence after treatment as early as possible. Methods All the data were collected from 1 557 patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College from Jan. 2004 to Dec. 2010, the data of un-controlled cases(patients whose serum level of SCC-Ag failed to decrease to normal level or patients with incomplete tumor extinction)were eliminated, there were 1 394 cases of complete remission were analyzed,the median age was 46 years( rang, 18-72 years). According to International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stages (FIGO, 1994), 71 cases were in stageⅠa, 360 cases stageⅠb, 254 cases stageⅡa, 207 cases stageⅡb, 95 cases stageⅢa, 289 cases stageⅢb, 106 cases stageⅣa and 12 cases stageⅣb. Radical hysterectomy was performed in 685 cases with stageⅠ-Ⅱa, concurrent radiation and chemotherapy was performed in 709 cases with stageⅡb-Ⅳ. Taking serum cut off value of SCC-Ag was 1.95 μg/L, the level ≤1.95 μg/L as SCC-Ag negative expression and>1.95μg/L as SCC-Ag positive expression. The positive expression status of SCC-Ag before treatment, the relationship between the post-treatment recurrence rate after SCC-Ag becoming negative and the clinicopathological features of the patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma were analyzed, concurrently combined with gynecological check-up, pathological and imaging examination, followed by comparative analysis with the results of monitoring. Results Among 1 394 patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma, there were 1 169 cases with positive SCC-Ag, the positive expression rate of SCC-Ag before treatment was closely related with the clinical stages and tumor size(all P<0.01),which was not related with pathological grade and lymphatic metastasis(all P>0.05). The positive expression of SCC-Ag in 1 169 patients before treatment turned negative after treatment, 279 patients with recurrence whose positive expression of SCC-Ag turned negative after treatment, the recurrence rate was closely related with clinical stages, pathological grade, lymphatic metastasis and tumor size(all P<0.01). Among 279 cases of recurret squamous cell carcinoma of cervix, the median time of the increase in serum level of SCC-Ag was 12.4 months, and the median time of clinical or imaging examination was 19.0 months. And the recurrence time in the increase of patients′ serum level of SCC-Ag occurred obviously earlierthan that in clinical or radiographic manifestation (P<0.01), the median time of recurrence of the increase in serum level of SCC-Ag was obviously earlier than that of abnormality found by clinical or imaging examination(P<0.01). Among 279 cases withrecurrent squamous cell carcinoma of cervix, the serum level of SCC-Ag>5μg/L for patients with central recurrence was 4.2%(4/96), whilein the group of pelvic wall recurrence group was 56.2%(45/80)and in distant metastasis group was 87.4%(90/103). The level of SCC-Ag>5μg/L from the patients with pelvic wall recurrence and distant metastasis were much higher than that of patients with central recurrence (P<0.01), and the same results were shown between distant metastasis group and pelvic wall recurret group (P<0.01). Conclusions SSC-Ag expression in serum of patients with cervical squamous carcinoma is closely related with clinical stages and the tumor size. Dynamic monitoring the level of SSC-Ag could contribute to the early diagnosis for tumor recurrence, but it has some limitations for patients with central recurrence, which should deserve our attention.

Background and purpose:The aim of this study was to analyze the prognostic factors in uterine adenocarcinoma and adenosquamous carcinoma treated with a combination of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and surgery.Methods:Clinicopathologic data from 50 patients with stageⅠB2-ⅡA2 uterine cervical cancer were collected from the First Afifliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College between Apr. 2005 and Oct. 2011. All patients underwent neoajuvant chemoradiotherapy, followed by radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection. Before surgery, an intravenous chemotherapy was given. A particular vaginal brachytherapy was given to those with tumor diameter≥6 cm. The survival and recurrence in patients were analyzed retrospectively to investigate the prognostic factors. Results:In 50 patients withⅠB2-ⅡA2 uterine adenocarcinoma and adenosquamous carcinoma, 15 died during the follow-up period. The 2-year and 5-year progression-free survival rates were 80.12% and 72.24%, respectively, and median progression-free survival was 68 months. The 2-year and 5-year overall survival rates were 95.38% and 73.56%, respectively, and median overall survival was 80 months. Univariate analysis revealed that pelvic lymph node metastasis, cervical stromal invasion, parametrial infiltration, tumor diameter reduction <3 cm and advanced stage were the prognostic factors in patients with cervical cancer (P<0.05). Age, postoperative radiochemotherapy, lymphatic clearance involvement, FIGO stage, preservation of ovary and pathologic type were not associated with prognosis (P>0.05). Multivariate Cox proportional analysis revealed that pelvic lymph node metastasis and tumor diameter reduction after radiation and chemotherapy were the independent prognostic factors in patients with cervical cancer. Conclusion:The combination of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and surgery improves the resectable rate of patients withⅠB2-ⅡA2 uterine adenocarcinoma and adenosquamous carcinoma. Pelvic lymph node metastasis and tumor diameter reduction after radiation and chemotherapy are the independent prognostic factors in patients with cervical cancer.

Objective To investigate the relationship between sensitivity to cisplatin (DDP) and the expression of HSP70 in cervical cancer cells in vitro. Methods Cervical cancer Hela229 cells treated with different concentrations of DDP and the HSP70 inhibitor (PFT-μ) were examined for cell viability using MTT assay and colony forming ability. The cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry with propidium iodide staining and DAPI staining, and JC-1 staining was used to determine mitochondrial membrane potential. The expressions of HSP70, Bcl-2, Bax and caspase-3 were measured with Western blotting. A nude mouse model bearing Hela229 cell xenograft was used to evaluate the effect of DDP and PFT-μ on tumor growth. Results Hela229 cells expressed a higher level of HSP70 than normal cervical cells. The combined use of PFT-μ significantly enhanced the inhibitory effect of DDP (P<0.01) and increased the cell apoptosis in Hela229 cells. JC-1 staining demonstrated that DDP combined with PFT-μmore obviously reduced mitochondrial membrane potential. DDP combined with PFT-μmore strongly lowered Bcl-2 expression and increased the expressions of casepase-3 and Bax than DDP alone. In the nude mouse model, PFT-μ significantly enhanced DDP sensitivity of Hela229 cell xenografts (P<0.01). Conclusions Inhibition of HSP70 expression can enhance the sensitivity of cervical cancer cell to DDP both in vivo and in vitro possibly by promoting cell apoptosis, suggesting the potential of HSP70 as a new target for gene therapy of cervical cancer.

OBJECTIVE:To observe therapeutic efficacy and safety of prucalopride in the treatment of chronic constipation (CC). METHODS:Totally of 100 CC patients were selected from anorectal department of our hospital during Jun. 2016-Jan. 2017, and then divided into control group and observation group according to random number table,with 50 cases in each group. Control group was given Mosapride citrate tablets 5 mg +Lactulose oral solution 10 mL orally,3 times a day. Observation group was given Prucalopride succinate tablets 2 mg orally,once a day. Both groups were treated for consecutive 4 weeks. Clinical efficacies of 2 groups were observed,and the levels of serum inflammatory factors(IL-6,TNF-α,IFN-γ)and colonic transit time(total colonic transit time,left colonic transit time,right colonic transit time,rectosigmoid colonic transit time)were observed before and after treatment. The occurrence of defecation disorders and ADR were recorded. RESULTS:None of patient in 2 groups was cured. Total response rate of observation group was 94.00%,which was significantly higher than 78.00% of control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in the levels of serum inflammatory factors or colonic transit time (P>0.05). After treatment,the levels of IL-6 and IFN-γ in control group,the levels of IL-6,TNF-α and IFN-γ in observation group were decreased significantly,and the levels of IL-6,TNF-α and IFN-γ in observation group were significantly lower than those of control group;the colonic transit time in 2 groups was shortened significantly,and observation group was significantly shorter than control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). After treatment,the incidence of defecation,incomplete emptying,sense of obstruction and sense of rectal tenesmus in observation group were significantly lower than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of sense of rectal tenesmus after treatment or ADR between 2 groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Compared with traditional plan of mosapride combined with lactulose,prucalopride can more effectively reduce the levels of serum inflammatory factors,shorten colonic transit time,reduce the occurrence of defecation disorders as defecation and incomplete emptying,with equivalent safety.
