Objective To study the clinical features of alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) and assess its prognostic factors.Methods The clinical data of 28 ASPS patients from January 2006 to January 2009 were analyzed retropectively,and were followed up to get their prognosis.The survival analysis and risk factors were analyzed and compared.Results Two cases with soft tissue primary ASPS got recurrence after the first resection,the recurrence rate was 8.0% (2/25).After re-resection,no postoperative recurrence occurred.Three cases with bone primary ASPS did not have postoperative local tumor recurrence,but 2 cases appeared tumor progression and got pulmonary metastasis.All the patients had poor overall prognosis,11 cases survived without tumor,8 cases survived with tumor,9 cases died.The median survival time was 38.5 months,5-year survival rate was 46.4% (13/28),5-yeax survival rate of male patients was 50.0% (5/10),female patients was 44.4%(8/18),5-year survival rate between male and female patients had no statistical significance (P =0.260).The 5-year survival rate of patients without distant metastasis was 81.8% (9/11),while the rate of patients with distant metastasis (pulmonary,brain or bone metastasis) was only 23.5%(4/17),and the rates had significant difference (P =0.036).Age,gender had no significant relation with the prognosis,while tumor size,location and distant metastasis were the important factors affecting the prognosis.Conclusions ASPS commonly occurs in young persons.The hips and thighs are the most common sites ofsofte tissue primary ASPS.Prognosis has relation with distant metastasis,tumor size and part or thorough resection.The risk of recurrency and metastasis can be decreased through assessing disease condition as soon as possible,developing a reasonable treatment plan and wide resection of the primary tumor.

Objectve To investigate the application value of ultraifltration with millipore ifltration method test of old biological samples DNA. Methods 23 old blood samples separately were cut blood piece equally suitable size of three groups, labeled A, B and C group. DNA was extracted by magnetic bead methed and get DNA template with 80μL, 80μL, 20μL elution solution, respectively, then the DNA template in group A and C take right amount directly ampliifed, group B with milipore ultraifltration ifltration condensed amplication. PCR products were detected by ABI3130xl genetic analyzer and analyzed by GeneMapperID V3.2 software. The date were analyzed by using SPSS software. Results No samples were ampliifed for all STR loci in group A. There were 18 cases in group B samples amplified all STR loci and 11 samples in group C. Conclusion Application of millipore ultrafiltration method can signiifcantly improve the old biological samples DNA classiifcation success rate.

【Objective】 Corin, a transmembrane serine protease that can cleave atrial natriuretic peptide precursor (pro-ANP) into atrial natriuretic peptide with smaller bioactive molecules, participates in the pathophysiological process of hypertension and cardiac hypertrophy. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship of Corin gene variation with blood pressure responses to sodium and potassium dietary interventions. 【Methods】 In 2004, we recruited 514 participants from 124 families in 7 villages of Baoji, Shaanxi Province, China. All the subjects received a 3-day normal diet, a 7-day low-salt diet, a 7-day high-salt diet, and finally a 7-day high-salt and potassium supplementation. Fifteen single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of Corin gene were selected for final analysis. 【Results】 SNPs rs12509275 were significantly associated with diastolic blood pressure (DBP) response to low-salt diet, while rs3749584 was associated with pulse pressure (PP) response to low-salt diet.SNP rs3749584 and rs10517195 were significantly associated with PP response to high-salt diet. In addition,rs17654278 were significantly associated with systolic blood pressure (SBP) response to high-salt and potassium supplementation, rs2271037 was significantly correlated with DBP responses to high-salt and potassium supplementation, and rs4695253, rs12509275, rs2351783, rs36090894 were significantly associated with PP response to high-salt and potassium supplementation. 【Conclusion】 Corin gene polymorphisms were associated with blood pressure response to sodium and potassium, suggesting that Corin gene may be involved in pathophysiological process of salt sensitivity and potassium sensitivity.
