Objective To study the effect of small interfering RNA targeted on Apollon for proliferation on pancreatic cancer cells and its possible acting mechanism.Methods The small interfering RNA targeted on apollon in our previous study was transfected to the cells using LipofectamineTM 2000,after 48 hours transtection.The inhibitory effects of small interfering RNA targeted on Apollon (Apollon siRNA)on cell proliferation were detected by WST-8.Their inhibition rate and IC50 were calculated.The percentage of apoptosis cells were determined by flow cytometry.The expression of Apollon mRNA was analyzed by real time fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction.The Apollon protein ex-pression levels were detected by western blotting.Results Apollon siRNA could effectively inhibit the proliferation of pan-creatic cancer cell.The amount of apoptotic cells increased significantly.The early apoptotic rate was 37.1%,and the RT-PCR results showed that the relative expression levels of Apollon mRNA were down-regulate,and shows a dose-effective-ness relations.The protein expression levels were decreased by Apollon siRNA.Conclusion Apollon siRNA can effectively inhibit the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cell.The mechanism may be work together to promote pancreative cancer cell early apoptosis and decreased the expression levels of gene and protein,which provides a novel potential approach for treat-ment of target therapy of pancreatic cancer.

Objective To evaluate the application of pathological diagnosis by rapid paraffin sections in the diagnosis and treatment of cervical diseases. Methods A total of 176 cases from our hospital between September 2009 and January 2010 with abnormal cervical cancer screening (including abnormal cytology result and high-risk HPV continuous positive) were randomly divided into 2 groups. Eighty-seven cases of them whose biopsy were got by Belinson forceps under the direction of colposcopy with rapid paraffin sections by ultrasonic histopathological rapid processor and BT transparent agents were selected as group A, while 89 cases with conventional paraffin sections were selected as group B. The production time and quality for paraffin sections were analyzed in the two groups. Those diagnosed as cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN)Ⅱ or even worse and some special patients with CIN Ⅰ in the two groups received surgery, including loop electrosurgical procedure (LEEP) ,cold knife conization (CKC),.hysterectomy or radical hysterectomy.Tissue obtained after surgery was sent for routine pathological examination. If the results of postoperative routine pathological examination were inconsistent with the rapid or routine biopsy pathological examination,the heavier results were regard as the final diagnoses. The pathological results and diagnose accordance rates were recorded and compared between group A and group B. Results The quality of sections in two groups were all satisfied or basically satisfied to meet the diagnostic requirements. There were statistically significant difference in average production time between group A and B (40 minutes vs 24 hours, P < 0. 05). Thirty patients in group A and 32 patients in group B received surgery. The coincidence rate of biopsy pathological results and final diagnoses were 93% (28/30) for group A and 91% (29/32) for group B, in which there were not statistically significant difference (P > 0. 05). Conclusion Bapid paraffin sections technology is safe, accurate and economical for rapid pathological diagnosis of cervical diseases, which is worthy for being widely used in hospitals.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the cost-effectiveness of long-effect and short-effect granulocyte stimulating factor in prevention and treatment of bone marrow suppression induced by chemotherapy for lung malignancies, and to provide reference for rational drug use in the clinic. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted for 132 cases who used granulocyte stimulating factor to prevent and treat bone marrow suppression induced by chemotherapy for lung malignancies in the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Zhengzhou University during Jan. 2017 to Jun. 2018. Among them, 60 cases were treated with Recombinant human granulocyte stimulating factor injection (short-effect, group A), and 72 cases were treated with Polyethylene glycol recombinant human granulocyte stimulating factor injection (long-effect, group B). Clinical efficacies, the occurrence of bone marrow suppression and ADR were compared between 2 groups. Cost was calculated, and cost-effectiveness analysis was conducted. Sensitivity analysis was conducted by down-regulating 20% drug price. RESULTS: The total response rates of group A and B were 71.7% and 75.0%, without statistical significance (P>0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence and duration of bone marrow suppression or the incidence of ADR (P>0.05). Average treatment costs of the two groups were (335.91±180.34) and (1 982.75±603.15) yuan; the cost of group A was significantly lower than that of group B (P<0.05). The cost-effectiveness ratio of them were 4.69 and 26.44, while group A as a reference, incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of group B was 494.55. The sensitivity analysis results were in agreement with the cost-effectiveness analysis. CONCLUSIONS: The effectiveness of Recombinant human granulocyte stimulating factor injection is similar to that of Polyethylene glycol recombinant human granulocyte stimulating factor injection for the prevention and treatment of bone marrow suppression induced by chemotherapy for lung malignancies. But the cost-effectiveness ratio of the former is lower than that of the latter.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy by using domestic recombinant human thyroid-stimulating hormone (rhTSH) in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) before or after 131I therapy. Methods:From May 2019 to November 2020, a total of 24 patients with DTC (5 males, 19 females, median age 41 years) in Peking Union Medical College Hospital and Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Zhengzhou University were enrolled into the open-label, dose escalation phase Ⅰ study. All patients were divided into 4 domestic rhTSH dose groups: 0.9 mg×1 d (group A), 0.9 mg×2 d (group B), 1.8 mg×1 d (group C), 1.8 mg×2 d (group D) in succession, with 6 patients in each group. Each patient underwent rhTSH phase and thyroid hormone withdrawal (THW) phase. The end point included safety, tolerability, the quality of life (hypothyroidism symptom and sign score (Billewicz score), profile of mood states (POMS)), effectiveness (thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and thyroglobulin (Tg) levels, diagnostic whole-body scan (Dx-WBS)) and pharmacokinetic characteristics (peak time, peak concentration) of rhTSH. Paired t test and Wilcoxon signed rank test were used for statistical analysis. Results:There were no dose-limiting toxicities, serious adverse events, or no grade ≥3 adverse events reported. The quality of life in rhTSH phase was significantly better than those in THW phase, including the lower Billewicz score (-53.00(-53.00, -53.00) vs -39.50(-47.00, -23.00); S=119.50, P<0.001) and the lower POMS score (91.92±12.06 vs 99.67±19.13; t=0.95, P=0.025). Serum TSH level was increased from 0.04(0.02, 0.11) mU/L (baseline) to 150.00(105.20, 173.31) mU/L 24 h after the last rhTSH administration, which was increased along with the elevation of rhTSH doses. In the THW phase, patients′ TSH levels were≥30 mU/L after 23 d (median) of THW, with the median of 73.51(57.22, 106.22) mU/L. Median Tg level of baseline was 0.10(0.10, 0.41) μg/L, which reached a peak of 0.85(0.12, 3.01) μg/L at 48 h after rhTSH administration. The peak Tg level in the THW phase was 0.88(0.15, 8.04) μg/L. The Dx-WBS consistency rate between rhTSH and THW phase was 95.8%(23/24). Conclusion:rhTSH is a safe and effective method to stimulate the serum Tg level and radioiodine uptake in patients undergoing post-operation or post- 131I assessment for DTC, as well as maintain a higher quality of life in comparison to THW phase.
