OBJECTIVETo study the safety and efficacy of three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy in combination with temozolomide in treatment of patients with diffuse brainstem glioma.
METHODSTwelve patients with MRI-confirmed diffuse brainstem glioma received 54 Gy three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy for 6 weeks with 1.8 Gy per fraction, 5 times per week. All of the patients were given daily oral temozolomide 75 mg/m(2) during radiotherapy. Four weeks after radiotherapy, all of the patients received 6 cycles of temozolomide, each cycle lasted 5 days with 28 days interval between each two cycles. 150 mg/m(2) of temozolomide was given for the first cycle for five days, followed by 200 mg/m(2) of the drug for the rest of the cycles if no significant drug-related toxicities were observed. Magnetic resonance imaging and laboratory tests were performed to evaluate the efficacy and adverse reactions.
RESULTSIn the 12 patients, CR was 1 case (8.3%), PR 6 cases (50.0%), SD 2 cases (16.7%), and PD 3 cases (25.0%). The overall clinical benefit rate was 75.0%. Progression-free survival rate was 75.0% (9/12) at 6 months and 50.0% (6/12) at 1 year. The one-year overall survival rate was 75.0%. There were no severe temozolomide-related toxicities.
CONCLUSIONSConcurrent temozolomide with three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy and followed by 6 cycles of temozolomide chemotherapy for diffuse brainstem gliomas have a better clinical efficacy, good tolerance and with no severe toxicities.

In this study,we compared the serum levels of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1),interleukin-10 (IL-10),and arginase-1 in long-term survival kidney transplant recipients (LTSKTRs) with those in short-term survival kidney transplant recipients (STSKTRs).We then evaluated the relationship between these levels and graft function.Blood samples were collected from 50 adult LTSKTRs and 20 STSKTRs (graft survival approximately 1-3 years post-transplantation).All patients had stable kidney function.The samples were collected at our institution during the patients' follow-up examinations between March 2017 and September 2017.The plasma levels of TGF-β1,IL-10,and arginase-1 were analyzed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA).The levels of TGF-β1 and arginase-1 were significantly higher in the LTSKTRs than in the STSKTRs.The time elapsed since transplantation was positively correlated with the levels of TGF-β 1 and arginase-1 in the LTSKTRs.The estimated glomerular filtration rate was positively correlated with the TGF-β1 level,and the serum creatinine level was negatively correlated with the TGF-β1 level.Higher serum levels of TGF-β1 and arginase-1 were found in LTSKTRs than in STSKTRs,and we found that TGF-β1 was positively correlated with long-term graft survival and function.Additionally,TGF-β1 and arginase-1 levels were positively correlated with the time elapsed since transplantation.On the basis of these findings,TGF-β1 and arginase-1 may play important roles in determining long-term graft survival.Thus,we propose that TGF-β1 and arginase-1 may potentially be used as predictive markers for evaluating long-term graft survival.

OBJECTIVETo study the association between methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene polymorphisms and toxicities after high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) infusion in children with acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL).
METHODSMTHFR variants in 52 children with ALL were determined by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis and sequencing. Toxicities of children who received HD-MTX chemotherapy were evaluated according to the National Cancer Institute-Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI-CTC).
RESULTSThe children carrying MTHFR 1298AC had a higher risk of developing thrombocytopenia compared with the carriers of the 1298 AA genotype (OR=13.7, 95%CI=1.18-159.36, P=0.036). There was no significant difference in HD-MTX chemotherapy-related adverse effects between the patients with different MTHFR C677T or G1793A genotypes.
CONCLUSIONSMTHFR A1298C polymorohism may associate with the toxicity of HD-MTX chemotherapy in children with ALL.
