ObjectiveStromal cell-derived factor -1 (SDF-1 ) is closely related to the biological characteristics of breast cancer. We aimed to explore whether estrogen affected breast cancer by SDF-1. MethodsThe breast cancer cell line MCF-7 and MRC5 were chosen, and divided into three groups: the control group, the estrogen group and the estrogen + estrogen receptor blocker group. Each group was cultured with different physiological concentrations of 17-β estrogen at certain time, and the same alcohol concentration of 17-β estradiol at different time points, and then the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure the concentration of SDF-1 in culture medium, and the semi-quantitative reverse transcriptionpolymerase chain reaction (RT -PCR) was used to detect the expression of SDF-1 mRNA in each group.ResultsSDF-1 can be detected in the culture medium of both MCF-7 and MRC5 cell lines. All different concentrations of 17-β estradiol may increase the secretion of SDF-1 in MCF-7 cells. When adding 17-β estradiol to the concentration of 107mol/L, the secretion of SDF-1 reached the peak in 2 hours, which was 6 times and 2.7 times that of control group ( P < 0.01 ). The effect could be ehminated by pure estrogen receptor ICI182,780. In addition, the mRNA expression of SDF-1 was consistent with the SDF-1 protein levels-l07 mol/L group. The expression of SDF-1 mRNA was higher than both that of the control group and the blocking group in 2 hours (P < 0.05 ). ConclusionsIn some breast cancer cell lines, physiological concentrations of estrogen can increase the secretion of SDF- 1, and this effect is mainly achieved through the estrogen receptor. Estrogen can influence the biological characteristics of breast cancer by SDF-1.

Objective To provide new evidences for understanding the mechanisms of promo-tive role of orexins in anesthetic emergence and the effect of microinjection of orexin-A/orexin-B into cerebral ventricle on the release of histamine.Methods Male SD rats were randomly divided into sa-line (control ), orexin-A and orexin-B groups. The microdialysis probe was inserted into hypothalamus under stereotaxic apparatus.The perfused fluid from the area of hypothalamic tube-romammillary nucleus was collected using in vivo microdialysis at 1 h,2 h and 3 h after 1 nmol or 5 nmol orexin-A or orexin-B microinjection into the cerebral ventricle (n =5 each).The concentrations of histamine at each time point in dialysates of perfused fluid were detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)to analyze its dynamic changes.After one week,each group was microin-jected with 10 nmol,15 nmol and 20 nmol orexin-A and orexin-B (n =5)into the cerebral ventricle respectively,dialysates was collect and histamine was detected at 1 h to analyze its dosage response. After one week,each group was microinjected 0.3 μl saline orexin-A and orexin-B (n =6)into the tu-beromammillary nucleus.Results Compared with the control group,microinjection of 1 nmol orexin-A significantly increased histamine release at 1 h,but the same dose of orexin-B had no such effect,5 nmol of orexin-A or orexin-B injections significantly facilitated histamine release at 2 h and 3 h (P <0.01).Microinjection of 10 nmol,15 nmol and 20 nmol orexin-A and orexin-B into ventricle caused an significant increase of histamine release at 1 h while the effect was the strongest in 20 nmol (P <0.05).Compared with the control group,microinjection of orexin-A significantly decreased time of the righting reflex (P <0.01),but the same dose of orexin-B had no such effect.Conclusion Micro-injection of both orexin-A or orexin-B into cerebral ventricle could promote the release of histamine, while the effect of orexin-A was stronger.Microinjection orexin-A into tuberomammillary nucleus sig-nificant facilitated recovery from isoflurane.

Objective To compare the incidence of limb dysfunction, sensory disturbance and lymphedema after different treatment methods in breast cancer patients, and evaluate the clinically relevant factors of limb dysfunction. Methods According to the different processing operation of axillary lymph nodes, 235 patients with breast cancer during 2005 to 2012 were divided into axillary lymph node dissection group in Mastoscopy (group A, n=120) and routine axillary lymph node dissection group (group B, n=115). The flexion, extension, abduction, adduction activity of the ipsilateral shoulder were compared with the contralateral, and the circumference of the up-and-down 15 cm of both upper limbs olecroanon were measured. The incidence of limb dysfunction of the patients was followed up in 6 months, 1 year and 2 years. Results There was no significant difference in limb activity and sensory disturbance between 2 groups 6 months, 1 year and 2
years after operation (P>0.05), the incidence of limb lymphedema was higher in group B than in group A (P<0.05). Radiotherapy was related with limb lymphedema in both groups (P<0.05). Conclusion Compared with the conventional axillary lymph node dissection, endoscopic axillary lymph node dissection can reduce the incidence of limb lymphedema after operation, but there was no significant difference in the limb activity and sensory disturbance between 2 groups. Postoperative radiotherapy is a risk to increase the occurrence of limb lymphedema.

Objective To evaluate the expression of MAGE-1 gene in esophageal carcinoma and determine whether esophageal carcinoma patients should be eligible for MAGE-1 antigen-based vaccine therapies. Methods MAGE-1 mRNA expression in esophageal carcinoma was assessed by reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction amplification. The PCR products were then digested by restriction endonucleases and inserted into the pET-30a(+) vector. The sequence of the inserted gene fragment was confirmed by DNA sequence analysis. Results Out of the 30 esophageal carcinomas studied, 43% of the esophageal carcinomas tissues expressed MAGE-1 gene and no expression was found in matched adjacent normal esophageal mucosae. The entire cDNA of the gene was cloned. Conclusion Owing to the high frequency of MAGE-1 gene expression in esophageal carcinoma and MAGE-1 antigen can be recognized by cytolytic T lymphocytes when presented by class-I HLA molecular, a large proportion of these patients might be suitable candidates for immune therapy involving tumor specific antigens encoded by MAGE-1 gene.
