Mycosis fungoides (MF) is the most common subtype of primary cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, and its pathogenesis remains unclear. Recent studies have uncovered high-frequency chromosomal copy number variations in MF, such as gain of chromosomes7q,1q,17q and loss of 9p21,10q,17p, which lead to the gain of proto-oncogenes and loss of tumor suppressor genes, and finally result in tumor development and progression. Moreover, low-frequency single-nucleotide variants have been found in MF, and these mutated genes are mostly enriched in the pathways associated with cell cycle regulation, cell apoptosis, chromatin remodeling as well as T cell activation. Gene-fusion variation is rarely reported in MF. In addition, large cell transformation may occur in some MF cases, and often indicates poor prognoses such as disease progression and drug resistance. In conclusion, MF is a complex disease with highly molecular genetic heterogeneity, and more extensive and intensive researches on its pathogenesis are needed in the future.

Objective To obtain I50 anti-idiotype antibody and identify its activity in vitro.Methods I50 anti-idiotype (Id) antibody gene was amplified from the template of fuse 5-I50 by PCR to construct a prokaryotic expression vector pET25b-I50. The expression of pET25b-I50 in E. coli BL21(DE3) was induced by isopropylthio-β-D-galactopyranoside (IPTG) and was confirmed by SDS-PAGE and Western blot with Ab1(FC2) monoclonal antibody and an anti-hexahistidine tag antibody. The method of dialysis refolding was used to restore the activity of I50 anti-Id antibody, which was measured by Dot-ELISA and lymphocyte proliferation assay. Results The recombinant vector was successfully constructed and the recombinant protein was successfully expressed and purified with 90% purity. The relative molecular weight of the expressed protein was 15 kD, which was in accordance with expectation. The activity of I50 anti-Id antibody could be restored and could promote the proliferation of lymphocyte in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion These results suggested that I50 anti-Id protein vaccine is likely an option in the therapy against nasopharyngeal carcinoma in vivo.

Objective To investigate the practicability and safety of laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy.Method 40 patients with space occupying lesions in the liver underwent laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy between Jan.2008 and Mar.2012.The diagnoses were hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) (n=13),recurrent HCC (n =1 ),cholangiocarcinoma ( n =1 ),metastatic cancer ( n=6),hepatolithiasis (n=10),hemangioma (n=7),FNH (n=1) and liver cell adenoma (n =1).Intraoperative ultrasound was routinely performed to locate lesions and intrahepatic structures.Selective hemihepatic vascular occlusion was applied during resection. High frequency cautery,CUSA and Ligasure were used to transect liver parenchyma. Hemolocks were applied when large blood vessels and bile ducts were encountered.Endo-GIA was used if necessary.The operations included right hemihepatectomy (n =3),left hemihepatectomy (n =10),resections of segment Ⅴ and Ⅵ (n=5),segment Ⅴ (n=3),segment Ⅵ (n =4),and segment Ⅳb (n =1).Result34 hepatectomics were performed laparoscopically.6 patients were converted to open surgery.There was no perioperative death. The operating time was 250.21±50.94 min,and intraoperative blood loss was 420.20± 120.10 ml.Bile leakage was diagnosed in 2 patients after operation.Conclusion With careful patient selection,and improvement in surgical technique and apparatus,laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy has become safe and practicable.The operation has the advantages of minimal invasion and rapid recovery. It can be regarded as a standard procedure for selected benign and malignant lesions.

Objective To investigate the safety and long-term therapeutic results of anatomical hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods 90 patients underwent anatomical hepatectomy from January,2003 to January,2010.The tumor size was ≤5 cm in 38 patients,and ＞5 cm in 52 patients.The tumor number was a single lesion in 58 patients,and multiple lesions in 32 patients.Cirrhosis was present in 46 patients (55.42％); cancer embolus was present in 34 patients (37.78％).There were 64 patients in Child-Pugh A and 26 patients in B.The operating time,blood loss and blood transfusion were recorded and analyzed.Complications and liver function were monitored after surgery.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the survival rates.Log-rank test was used to analyze factors associating with postoperative recurrence.Independent factors influencing tumor-free survival and overall survival were analyzed by Cox-model logistic regression.Result There was no perioperative death.The incidence of complications was 31.1％ (28/90).The recurrence rate was 51.1％ (46/90).The 1-,3-,5 year tumor-free survivals were 92.2％,67.3％ and 49.7％％00,respectively.Positive resection margin and satellite nodule were independent factors for recurrence (RR19.22,95 ％ confidence interval 5.85～63.17).The 1-,3-,5-year overall survivals were 94.4％,80.0％ and 60.0％,respectively.Positive resection margin and TNM were independent factors for overall survival (RR 2.013,95％ confidence interval 1.28～3.17).Conclusions Anatomical hepatectomy was a safe and efficacious procedure to treat HCC.Positive resection margin and TNM were independent factors associated with overall survival.Anatomical hepatectomy had the advantages in ensuring a lower rate of negative resection margin.

Objective To study the significance of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection and the expression of caudal-related homeobox transcription factor 2 (CDX2),mucin 2 (MUC2) proteins in gastric cancer,and elucidate the prognostic significance of CDX2,MUC2 proteins in gastric cancer.Methods Ninety cases of gastric cancer were available for the study.Hp was studied by Warthin-Starry bacterium stain and CDX2 and MUC2 proteins were studied by immunohistochemical stain.Results There was no Hp infection and no expression of CDX2 and MUC2 proteins in normal gastric mucosa.The positive rate in the cases of intestinal-type gastric cancer was 67.86%(38/56) for Hp,75.00% (42/56) for CDX2,and 66.07%(37/56) for MUC2,respectively,and it was higher than that in the cases of diffuse-type gastric cancer,which was 35.29%(12/34),41.18%(14/34) and 38.24%(13/34) respectively (P<0.01 or < 0.05).In intestinaltype gastric cancer,the positive rate of CDX2 and MUC2 proteins was also higher in Hp positive cases than that in Hp negative cases,and it was the same as CDX2 protein in diffuse-type gastric cancer.Higher positive rates of CDX2 and MUC2 proteins were observed in the cases of early gastric cancer than those in the cases of advanced gastric cancer (P < 0.01 or < 0.05),also it was observed in the cases of no lymph node metastasis than in the cases of lymph node metastasis (P < 0.01 or < 0.05).Moreover,the positive rate of CDX2 protein in the cases of stage Ⅰ～Ⅱwas higher than that in the cases of stage Ⅲ～Ⅳ (P < 0.05).Conclusions Hp infection and the expression of CDX2 and MUC2 proteins are related with gastric cancer,and has close relationship with intestinal-type gastric cancer.The expressions of CDX2 and MUC2 proteins may inhibit the infiltration and metastasis of gastric cancer.

Associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for two-staged hepatectomy(ALPPS) is a novel approach for hepatectomy.The case we reported was a 68 years old male patient diagnosed with hilar cholangiocellular carcinoma and obstructive jaundice.ALPPS surgery was operated.Since the patient's left lateral lobe volume was less than 40％ of the whole liver volume (merely 33.91％),the ligation of the right portal vein,plus in situ split of the junction zone between left medial and left lateral liver lobe and the dissection of portal lymph nodes as the first stage operation was conducted.Abdominal CT on the 8th day after the operation reported an increase on the volume of left lateral lobe by 32％ to 41.5％ of the whole liver volume.On the 12th day after the first stage operation,an extended right trilobate hepatectomy combined with left hepatic duct intra-jejunum drainage was performed as the second operation.The patient completely recovered and was discharged three weeks after the second stage operation.

Objective To study the feasibility and safety of pure laparoscopic right hemihepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma via the anterior approach.Methods The data of five patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent pure laparoscopic right hemihepatectomy at the First People's Hospital of Foshan between December 2013 and December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients'operation time,blood loss,blood transfusion rate,surgical margins,hospital stay,complication and short term outcomes were reviewed.Results All the five patients completed pure laparoscopic right hemihepatectomy without conversion to open surgery.The average (range) operation time was 6.0 (5 ～ 8) h.The average blood loss was 340 (110 ～ 600) ml.No patient received blood transfusion.The average surgical margin was 2.4 (1 ～4.5) cm.The average postoperative hospital stay was 7 (4 ～ 15) d.The average follow-up was 22 (2 ～38) months.Three patients experienced postoperative complications,which included ascites,pleural effusion,and ascites accompanied by biliary leakage,respectively.The last patient recovered well from drainage.No liver failure,cancer recurrence or death was noted.Conclusions This study demonstrated that pure laparoscopic right hemihepatotectomy via the anterior approach is a minimally invasive procedure which has the advantage of fast postoperative recovery.It was feasible and safe to treat hepatocellular carcinoma with favorable short-term outcomes.

Objective To study extended high frequency (EHF) audiometry for early detection of hearing loss in student pilots in civil aviation.Methods A total of 175 student pilots (all male,18~25 years old, mean 20.2±0.92 years) from a university flight academy were surveyed and underwent EHFA.All subjects had hearing thresholds ≤25 dB HL at conventional frequencies (0.25~8 kHz).The results were compared with the corresponding recommended standards in other countries.According to the use of personal listening devices, all the subjects were divided into the low risk group (non-use, 121 cases) and the high risk group (using>1 year, day>1 hour, 52 cases).The differences of hearing thresholds and detection rates at EHF between the two groups were compared.Results The hearing thresholds of 173 subjects (1 case of middle ear disease and 1 case with family history of hearing loss were excluded) at 9~20 kHz were slightly higher than the reference equivalent threshold sound pressure level (RETSPL) prescribed by American National Standardization Association and the age-matched thresholds recommended by a foreign literature (P<0.05 or P<0.01).The hearing thresholds in the high risk group elevated dramatically than that in the low risk group at 9,12.5,16 and 18 kHz(P<0.05 or P<0.01).As frequencies increased, the detection rate of hearing thresholds in the high risk group decreased gradually, and at 18 and 20 kHz it was significantly lower than that in the low risk group (P<0.01).Conclusion EHF audiometry is a helpful tool for early detection of noise-induced hearing loss in student pilots.Hearing health care should be emphasized in civilian student pilots.It is recommended to avoid the use of personal listening devices or reduce the use time of them.
