Objective To study the clinical and pathological features of rectal carcinoid and factors influencing the prognosis.Methods Data of 33 rectal carcinoid patients were analyzed retrospectively. 29 patients were followed up postoperatively. Primary tumors were classified by size (2*!cm) and muscularis invasion respectively.Results The main symptoms were changes in bowel habits(17/33,52%) and hematochezia (14/33, 42%), or rectal mass (14/33,42%), asymptomatic patients were detected during a survey.Only 4(12%) patients had tumors larger than 2 cm and tumors invading muscularis.The 10 year survival rate was 84% for all patients( n =29), and 94% for those with tumors 2*!cm( n =3) died in 5 years( P = 1 0?10 -9 ) and only one out of the 4 with muscularis invasion lived longer than 5 years( P =1 2?10 -5 ).Conclusions Most rectum carcinoid are at early stage suitable for local excision.

0.05. All arose in the pelvis. 5 year′s survival rate in group Ⅰ was (53.2?1.9)% and (67.3?1.6)% in group Ⅱ, P

Objective To study the expression of reversion-inducing-cysteine-rich protein with Kazal motifs (RECK) in human pancreatic carcinoma tissues and pancreatic carcinoma cell lines; the effects of recombinant lentiviruses carrying RECK gene(LV-RECK) therapy on human pancreatic carcinoma xenograft in nude mice; and to find out the relationship between the expression of RECK and the prognosis of pancreatic carcinoma.Methods Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of RECK in the resected specimens of pancreatic carcinoma and their corresponding normal pancreatic tissues in 42 patients.Western blotting was used to examine the expression of RECK in human pancreatic carcinoma cell lines (PANC-1,MIAPaCa-2,AsPC-1).Statistical analyses were performed to determine the relationship between RECK expression and the clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis in pancreatic carcinoma.Subcutaneous xenograft tumor models of human pancreatic carcinoma were established in nude mice.These nude mice were then divided into the experimental group,the negative control group and the blank control group randomly.The three groups of nude mice were intratumorally injected with LV-RECK,LV-EGFP and normal saline (NS) respectively.The antitumor effect was studied.Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of RECK and microvessel density (MVD).Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated dUTP-DIG nick end labeling (TUNEL) was used to detect the apoptosis of tumor cells.Survival analysis was performed.Results All three pancreatic carcinoma cell lines did not express RECK.The overall positive rate of RECK expression was 45.2 ％ (19/42) in pancreatic carcinoma,and 88.1 ％ (37/42) in normal pancreatic tissue.The expression level of RECK was significantly lower in the tumor tissues than in the normal tissues (P＜0.01).The expression of RECK was significantly associated with TNM stage,lymph node metastasis and local infiltration of pancreatic carcinoma (P＜0.05).Kaplan-Meier survival analysis revealed that the survival time was significantly longer in the RECK positive patient group than in the RECK negative patient group.Univariate Cox regression analysis revealed that RECK expression,TNM stage,lymph node metastasis and local infiltration were significantly related with prognosis for pancreatic carcinoma (P＜0.05).Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that only RECK expression remained as an independent significant factor in predicting the prognosis of pancreatic carcinoma (P ＜ 0.001).When compared with the negative control and the blank control groups,the volume of subcutaneous xenograft tumor in the experimental group was significantly decreased (P＜0.05).RECK protein in the experimental group was re-expressed.MVD of the experimental group was significantly less than those of the control groups (P＜0.05).Apoptotic index (AI)of the experimental group was significantly higher than those of the control groups (P＜0.05).The survival time of nude mice in the experimental group was significantly longer than those in the control groups (P＜0.05).Conclusions RECK expression was closely related to invasion,metastasis and prognosis of pancreatic carcinoma and it was an independent prognostic marker.RECK gene over-expression inhibited neovascularization of pancreatic carcinoma,induced apoptosis of tumor cells,inhibited the growth of tumor xenograft and improved the prognosis of tumor-bearing mice.These results suggest a possible new treatment for pancreatic carcinoma.

Surgical treatment of colon cancer is the first choice in the therapy stages,supplemented with systemicor local radiotherapy and chemotherapy.With the developement of molecular biology,there has been a variety of treatment program,some of these methods have been accepted in clinical testing stage.But the safety of the treatment on colon cancer is still a hot topic.

To evaluate the role of color Doppler flow imaging in the portal vein chemotherapy by ultrasound guided percutaneous transhepatic portal injection, the blood supply of liver tumor and portal hemodynamics were studied in 15 patients with primary hepatic carcinoma and one patient with secondary hepatic carcinoma. The continuous wave in the lesion and forward continuous wave in the portal vein seen by pulsed Doppler in nine cases, were indications for this therapeutic method. The distribution of the drugs in the liver could be observed by color Doppler flow imaging when injection was being done. The therapeutic efficacy of portal vein chemotherapy in liver tumor may be evaluated by color Doppler folw imaging and puncture biopsy.

BACKGROUND:Some scholars have prepared zein/chitosan composite membrane based on blending methods, and preliminary evaluation ofitsphysical and chemical properties showsthat chitosan partly improvesthe mechanical properties and hydrophilic properties of zein. Therefore, zein/chitosan composite membrane presumably has good cytocompati bility, which is beneficial to osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of zein/chitosan composite membrane on the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels into osteoblasts and its feasibility asabone tissue-engineered material.
METHODS:With 60% acetic acid as solvent, zein/chitosan composite membrane was prepared by blending and casting method. The structure and physicochemical properties of the composite membrane were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, tensile testing, water absorption testing and scanning electron microscopy. And the cytocompatibility of the membrane was evaluated byin vitrocel cufture. Besides,bone marrow mesenchymal stem celsfrom Sprague-Dawley ratwere isolatedvia adherence screening method, andthe effects of thecompositemembrane on theosteogenic differentiation ofthese celswere observedby scanning electron microscopy, fluorescent labeling and alkaline phosphatase assay.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The tensile strength, water absorption and hydrophilicity of the films were improved with the chitosan increased; chitosan could promote cel proliferation indicating the good cytocompatibility of the composite films. Moreover, osteogenic induction occurredin bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels cultured on the compositem embrane, and with an increase of chitosan, the induction was promoted. In conclusion, zein/chitosan composite membrane can be applied widely in the field of bone tissue engineering.

Objective:To investigate the treatment effect of cytosine deaminase gene combined 5-FC thermochemotherapy for colon cancer liver metastasis in Nude Mice. Methods:The models of liver metastasis of colon cancer had been established by injecting human colon cancer cells Lovo into portal vein in 30 BALB/c nude mice,which were divided into transgenic group and non-transgenic group randomly. Transgenic group:virus supernatant was injected into abdominal cavity(0.2 mL/d,for 5 days); non-transgenic group:sodium chloride was injected into abdominal cavity(0.2 mL/d,for 5 days). In both groups 42 ℃ 5-FC was injected into the abdominal cavity (500 mg?kg-1?d-1,for 21 days). After treatment,all mice were sacrificed,and then PCR and RT-PCR were performed to detect the expression of targeted gene in carcinoma. The pathology changes of tumor were observed. Results:The targeted gene were detected in the tumor tissues. The rates of liver metastasis tumors were 26.7%(4/15),100.0%(15/15) in transgenic group and non-transgenic group respectively(P
