Objective To evaluate the curative effectiveness and safety of human chorionic gonadotropin(HCG) treatment on children with microphallic hypospadias.Methods A total of 48 consecutive children with microphalic hypospadias were enrolled in the study,and the children were randomized into the experiment group(HCG treatment) and the control group with the research randomizer.The patients in experiment group were treated with HCG prior to surgery,and the control group did not received any hormone therapy preoperatively.All children in the experiment group and the control group underwent hypospadias repair by using transverse preputial island flap (Duckett technique) urethroplasty.Penile length,diameter of glans penis,bone age,serum testosterone level,and secondary effects were recorded before and after therapy in the experiment group.Postoperative complications were assessed with respect to fistulas,urethral strictures,diverticula,meatal stenosis,and glanular dehiscence in both groups.Results (1)Mean penile length and diameter of the experiment group increased significantly by (1.08±0.47) cm (t=-5.196,P<0.05) and (0.31±0.06) cm and there was a significant difference between before and after treatment (t=-5.080,P<0.05).(2)Urethrocutaneous fistulas were observed in 8 patients in the control group compared to 2 patients in the experiment group with a statistically significant difference (χ2=4.547,P<0.05).There was a significant difference between the overall reoperation rates of control group (9 patients) and the experiment group (3 patients,χ2=4.000,P<0.05).The penile tissue of the patients in the experiment group was soft and able to be easily separated and released during the operation and the flap had more blood supply.Conclusions Pretreatment with HCG therapy prior to hypospadias repair is beneficial to children with microphallic hypospadias.Significant penile growth was seen in the children treated with HCG and there was no obvious side effect.Moreover,pretreatment with HCG is beneficial to decrease the complications and reoperation rates of hypospadias repair which proves to be effective and safe.

Objective To investigate the correlation between serum soluble epithelial cadherin (sE-cad) and postoperative recurrence and prognosis in patients with advanced gastric cancer.Methods The level of serum sE-cad in 85 patients with advanced gastric cancer (advanced gastric cancer group) was detected by ELISA technique preoperative and postoperative 1 month,and compared with 30 healthy controls(control group).The patients in advanced gastric cancer group were followed up for 3 years,the level of serum sE-cad in recurrent patients and non-recurrent patients was compared.Results The level of serum sE-cad in advanced gastric cancer group preoperative was significantly higher than that in control group [(24.3 ± 14.8) μ g/L vs.(9.4 ± 3.8) μ g/L,P ＜ 0.01].The level of serum sE-cad in advanced gastric cancer group was significantly decreased postoperative 1 month [(12.5 ± 6.4) μ g/L vs.(24.3 ± 14.8) μ g/L,P ＜0.01].The level of serum sE-cad in recurrent patients was significantly higher than that in non-recurrent patients and postoperative 1 month [(20.7 ±9.8)μg/L vs.(12.5 ±6.4),(14.8 ±6.2) μg/L,P＜0.01].Univariate analysis revealed that preoperative high serum sE-cad level was related with tumor size,differentiated degree,lymph node metastasis ratio,depth of tumor invasion (P ＜0.05),but had no relationship with histological type(P＞ 0.05).Elevated preoperative serum sE-cad level negatively affected the postoperative survival rate and recurrence rate.Multivariate Logistic regression anaiysis revealed that preoperative serum sE-cad level was an independent risk factor for postoperative 3 years survival rate in advanced gastric cancer (HR =2.068,P =0.013).Conclusions Preoperative elevated serum sE-cad level is related with pathologic features in patients with advanced gastric cancer,and may be an important prognostic factor.Postoperative monitoring the level of serum sE-cad is useful for evaluating the prognosis and recurrence.

Aurora-B as an important kinase to adjust the cell normal mitosis is a potent target for cancer treatment. Aurora-B is overexpressed in a broad range of tumor and tumor cells are more sensitive while Aurora-B is inhibited. Due to the key role of the Aurora-B in cell mitosis, the development of its inhibitors is becoming more and more important. Several small molecules inhibit with a similar efficacy both Aurora-A and Aurora-B, however, in most cases the effects resemble Aurora-B disruption by genetic methods, indicating that Aurora-B represents an effective therapeutic target. There were several Aurora-B kinase inhibitors which had entered the clinics and displayed good antitumor activity. In this review, we will outline the functions of Aurora kinase B in normal cell division and in malignancy. We will focus on recent preclinical and clinical studies that have explored the mechanism of action and clinical effect of Aurora-B inhibitors in cancer treatment.

Objective To evaluate the effects of monomers of aloin, cinnamic acid and sophocarpidine on the acitivity of tyrosinase,so as to provide depigmenting agents in the treatment of hyperpigmentation disorders and cosmetics additives as well. Methods Tyrosinase activity was estimated by measuring the oxidation rate of DL dopa. The inhibitory pattern of each monomers was determined according to their Lineweaver Burk curve as compared to controls. Results Aloin,cinnamic acid and sophocarpidine down regulated the activity of tyrosinase. The inhibitory rates were significantly higher in cinnamic acid group(2 mmol/L, 0.5 mmol/L), aloin group (2 mmol/L)and sophocarpidine group than those in hydroquinone group (0.5 mmol/L)(P

Background Heparanase degrade heparan sulfate side chains of heparan sulfate proteoglycans in the extracellular matrix.Heparanase induces angiogenesis and likely promotes the vascularization of tumor.ObjectiveThe present study is to investigate the expression of heparanase and perlecan in retinas with oxygen-induced retinopathy.Methods Sixty-five clean neonatal C57BL/6J mice were raised in a hyperbaric oxygen box with a volume percentage of 75%±2% for 5 days and then returned to the normal air room.Another 65 matched mice were raised in the normal environment as controls.Evans blue was infused by the superior vena cava in all the mice on postnatal days 12,13,17,21 and 30,afterwards fluorescein angiography was performed and then the mice were sacrificed.The retinas of mice were isolated and prepared and the retinal vessels were examined under a fluorescent microscope and optical microscope.Heranase and perlecan mRNA was detected using reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR).Heranase and perlecan proteins were detected by Western blot.The analysis of variance was used to compare the mRNA and the protein levels of heranase and perlecan between the experimental and control groups.Results The expression of heparanase mRNA in the retinas of different ages of mice and the different groups showed significant differences (F_(group)=16.303,P=0.000;F_(time)=18.614,P=0.000;F_(interaction)=11.299,P=0.000),and the expression of heparanase mRNA was significantly enhanced in mice from postnatal days 12,13,17 and 21 compared with normal control mice (P=0.001,0.000,0.000,0.001,respectively).The expression of heparanase protein in the retinas of different ages of mice and the different groups followed the same tendency(F_(group)=458.134,P=0.000;F_(time)=78.466,P=0.000;F_(interaction)=71.398,P=0.000).The expression of perlecan mRNA in the retinas of different ages of mice and the different groups showed significant differences (F_(group)=7.351,P=0.013;F_(time)=9.098,P=0.000;F_(interaction)=3.349,P=0.000),and increase in differences also were clearly seen in mice from postnatal days 13,17 and 21 compared with normal control mice (P=0.048,0.000,0.003,respectively).Conclusion The expression of heparanase and perlecan is associated with the development and progression of retinal neovascularization,and perlecan and heparanase together produce a synergistic effect.Heparanase and perlecan may participate in the angiogenesis of oxygen-induced retinopathy.
