Cancer stem cells are a new field with the gradual deep understanding of the stem cell research.Although its history is not long,the rapid development showed a good potential prospect.The existence of cancer stem cells and its use as tumor formation,growth and metastasis-based approach has been widely recognized.In theory,cancer stem cells derived from normal stem cells can transform.Cancer-causing factors can also be derived from the dedifferentiation induced cells.Because it contains all-round,multi-and single stem cell,with the proliferation and differentiation potential of different directions,it is possible to explain the heterogeneity of tumor cells,and reasons for hypoxic environment,anti-cancer drugs and radiation resilience.In this area,it has been made a lot of progress in recent years.However,there are still some problems to be solved.Such as the identification of cancer stem cells,biological function and mechanism.

Objective To study the effects of different dose 6 MV and 10 MV photons for classic conformal radiotherapy on cervical cancer patients with different height and weight,in order to provide guidance for clinical irradiation energy choosing for different patients.Methods Twenty-one recruited patients were divided into obese and non-obese group according to the body mass index (BMI).The 4-field classic conformal radiotherapy plans was designed and applied in both groups and the results were compared.Statistical analysis was carried out on the dosimetric parameters.Results The treatment plan of 10 MV photons could both reduce the maximum and minimum dose (Dmax and Dmin) of the target area PTV and increase the conformal and heterogeneity index (CI and HI),and change the median dose (D50) for non-obese patients,while it could not reduce the mean dose (Dmeen) for two groups.It was more effective in reducing Dmax and increasing HI for obese patients.The plan could also reduce the dose of organs at risk (OAR) near the PTV.Using 10 MV photons plan could more effectively reduce the low isodose volume of the patients and machine hops.Conclusions The 10 MV photons plan has many advantages in classic conformal radiotherapy for obese cervical cancer treatment.

Cancer stem cells are a new field with the gradual deep understanding of the stem cell research. Although its history is not long, the rapid development showed a good potential prospect. The existence of cancer stem cells and its use as tumor formation, growth and metastasis-based approach has been widely recognized. In theory, cancer stem cells derived from normal stem cells can transform. Cancer-causing factors can also be derived-from the dedifferentiation induced cells. Because it contains all-round, multi-and single stem cell, with the proliferation and differentiation potential of different directions, it is possible to explain the heterogeneity of tumor cells, and reasons for hypoxic environment, anti-cancer drugs and radiation resilience.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety and efficacy of urinary kallidinogenase for recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rt-PA) intravenous thrombolytic treatment in patients with acute cerebral infartion MethodsA randomized control study was applied. All 44 patients with acute cerebral infartion were randomized 1:1 to the experimental group (22 cases) and the control group (22 cases). Patients were administrated rt-PA(0. 9 mg/kg)in control group, and patients were given urinary kallidinogenase by intravenous drip (0.15 PNAU/d, for 7 days) after rt-PA intravenous thrombolytic treatment (0.9 mg/kg)in experimental group. The main evaluation index was the incidence of symptomatic intraeerebral hemorrhage within 24 hours, and the secondary assessing items were NIHSS and BI. ResultsThere was 1 case (4.6%) with symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage in the experimental group and 2 (9.1%) in the control group (X2 =0.00, P= 1.000),and reinfarction rate showed a decreasing tendency in experimental group (18.2% vs. 31.8%, X2=1.091,P=0.296). Compared with the control group, the NIHSS scores were significantly lower 1,21,90 days after thrombolytic therapy (t=2.119, 2.913, 2.187);P=0.041, 0.0 06, 0.042),and the BI scores were obviously higher at 90 days after thrombolytic therapy in experimental group(t= 2.39,P= 0.012). ConclusionsWithout increasing the risk of intracerebral hemorrhage, urinary kallidinogenase may improve the curative effect for rt-PA intravenous thrombolytic treatment in patients with acute cerebral infartion

Aim To investigate the effect of ginkgolide B on TLR4 expression in glucose-treated endothelial cells.Methods Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs)were stimulated by high concentra-tion of glucose.TLR4,inflammatory protein expression and Akt phosphorylation were analyzed by Western blot.Transcription factor NF-κB nuclear translocation was analyzed by immunofluorescence.Results The expression of TLR4 and PAF receptor was increased in high glucose-treated HUVECs. In contrast, both ginkgolide B and CV3988 dose-dependently decreased TLR4 and PAF receptor expression in high glucose-treated cells,respectively.Ginkgolide B decreased in-flammatory protein ICAM-1 ,VCAM-1 expression.Mo-reover,ginkgolide B potently abolished Akt phospho-rylation and NF-κB p65 nuclear translocation.Conclu-sion Ginkgolide B can reduce TLR4,PAF receptor, ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expression in high dose of glu-cose-treated HUVECs,the mechanism might be linked to inhibition of Akt phosphorylation and NF-κB activa-tion.

Objective To study the changes of gastrin 17 (G17) and pepsinogen (PG) after gastric bypass surgery in gastric antrum resection, and the influences of different surgical methods on postoperative peptic ulcer. Methods Clinical data of 63 patients with gastric bypass surgery in our hospital from October 2013 to October 2015 were divided into resection of pyloric antrum group (n=33) and preserved pyloric antrum group (n=30). The values of G17, PGⅠ, PGⅡand PGⅠ/PGⅡwere detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay at 1 month, 6 months and 12 months after operation. The correlation between the different surgical methods and the incidence of peptic ulcer was analyzed between two groups. Results The G17 levels were significantly decreased in resection of pyloric antrum group 6 and 12 months after operation than those in preserved pyloric antrum group (P<0.05). Compared with preserved pyloric antrum group,PGⅠ and PGⅡ levels was significantly decreased 12 months after operation (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the ratio PGⅠ/PGⅡat 1 month, 6 months and 12 months after operation between two groups (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in postoperative peptic ulcer between two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Gastric bypass after resection of the pyloric antrum can reduce the postoperative secretion of G17, PGⅠ and PGⅡ, but which can not reduce the incidence of postoperative anastomotic ulcer.
