Objective To investigate Fascin expression in human lung cancer tissues and its clinical significance.Methods Immunohistochemistry was performed in 62 patients with different histological types and clinical stages of lung cancer and 92 cases with other malignant tumors.Fascin positive rate in each group was calculated and the differences of pathological characters between the two groups were analyzed.Results Fascin expression in lung cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in normal lung tissues(P ＜ 0.05),its expression varied by different clinical stage of lung cancer tissue differentiation.As differentiation degree decreased,Fascin positive rate increased.Fascin expression was independent with age,sex,smoking history(P ＞ 0.05).Fascin expression had no significant difference between lung cancer group and other tumor group(P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Fascin expression raising might be common in malignant tumors.Fascin expression in lung tissues indicated the possibility of lung cancer.In lung tissue,high expression of Fasein was a sign of poor differentiation and malignant status of lung cancer.

Objective To explore the changes of plasma endothelin-1 (ET-1), nitrousoxide (NO), blood gas analysis, and blood rheology in patients with chronic bronchitis (CB), pulmonary emphysema (PE) and pulmonary heart disease (PHD) at different periods.Methods The plasma ET-1, NO, blood viscosity, hematocrit (Hct) and aggregation index (AI) of patients in groups of CB, PE and PHD, and the subjects of the control group were tested and compared. Blood gas analysis of subjects in four groups also performed and compared. Each group had 40 cases.Results In PE and PHD patients, the ET-1 level was higher, the indexes of blood gas analysis and blood rheology were abnormal. When PE developed into PHD, the ET-1 and PaCO2 tended to increase, PaO2 tended to decrease. When CB developed into PE and PHD, the blood viscosity, pressure volume and AI tended to increase, but NO tended to decrease.Conclusion When CB developed into PE or PHD, ET-1, PaCO2 tend to increase and NO, pH, PaO2 tend to decrease; increased red blood cells, blood viscosity and AI become severe.

Objective To observe the expression of PD-L1 in breast cancer tissue and to investigate its correlation with cellu-lar immunity.Methods One hundred and fourteen paraffin-embedded specimens of breast cancer were collected from the Qian′an Municipal People′s Hospital.The expression of PD-L1 in breast tumor tissue was detected by immunohitochemical technique,then the relationship between PD-L1 expression and tumor clinicopathological characteristics was analyzed;the levels of peripheral blood CD3+,CD3+CD4+,CD3+CD8+,CD3-CD19+,CD3-CD16+CD56+cells and CD4+/CD8+in the patients with PD-L1 negative and PD-L1 positive of the two groups were detected by the flow cytometry.Results Among 114 cases of breast cancer specimen,35 ca-ses(30.7%)were PD-L1 expression positive with the expression rate of 30.7%.The PD-L1 expression was correlated with the tumor size,histological grade and Ki-67 high expression(P<0.05);the cellular immunity status in the patients with PD-L1 negative expression was better than that in the patients with PD-L1 positive expression(P<0.05).Conclusion The PD-L1 expression is closely correlated with the poorer clinicopathological characteristics of breast cancer,its mechanism may be correlated with the dis-ruption of cellular immunity in the patients with PD-L1 positive expression.

Objective To compare the adjuvant activity of oil-in-water emulsion MF59 and aluminum hydroxide on immune responses to HIV-1 multi-epitope protein MEP1 in BALB/c mice. Methods HIV-1 multi-epitope protein MEP1 with MF59 or aluminum was prepared to intramuscularly vaccinate female BALB/c mice for three times. Serum and splenocytes were isolated from the mice 10 d after the first and last vaccination. Specific anti-MEP1 antibodies and the subclasses in serum were detected by ELISA. The num-bers of splenic lymphocytes secreting IFN-γ and IL-4 were measured by ELISPOT. Differences in humoral and cellular immune responses induced by the two different adjuvants were compared. Results After a sin-gle-dose immunization, aluminum adjuvant promoted early humoral and cellular immune responses to MEP1 compared with MF59. After the three-dose immunization, both aluminum adjuvant and MF59 promoted MEP1 to induce Th2-biased humoral immune response, while MF59 also enhanced a balanced Th1/Th2 cel-lular immune response. Conclusions Aluminum adjuvant was a more suitable adjuvant than MF59 for HIV-1 multi-epitope protein MEP1.

Objective To investigate the efficacy,safety and feasibility of laparoscopic lymph node dissection guided by indocyanine green(ICG)fluorescence imaging.Methods A total of 30 patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer(MIBC,T2/T3NxM0)who were admitled to the Cangzhou People's Hospital during Mar.2018 and Jun.2022 were included.The lymph nodes were cleared with ICG fluorescence imaging first,and then the remaining lymph nodes were cleared according to the standard pelvic lymph node range.The lymph node positive rate of ICG fluorescence imaging guided laparoscopic lymph node precise dissection and standard pelvic lymph node dissection was analyzed by self-comparison.Results ICG fluorescence imaging guided laparoscopic lymph node precise dissection needed shorter operation time than standard pelvic lymph node dissection[(21.80±6.80)min vs.(47.70±10.73)min,P＜0.05].There was no significant difference in the lymph node positive rate between the two approaches[(11.34±9.06)％vs.(12.36±9.43)％,P＞0.05],but the former approach caused less damage on blood vessels and nerves.Conclusion Indocyanine green fluorescence imaging guided laparoscopic lymph node dissection has comparable efficacy to standard pelvic lymph node dissection,which can reduce ineffective lymph node dissection,shorten the operation time,and reduce the risk of complications.
