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 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 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.

The traditional approaches of pharmacokinetics (PK) focused on the dynamic changing process of single or several effective components of drugs in vivo,which was noted as limitations for the complexity studies on PK of multicomponent herbal medicine featuring multi-component,multi-target and multi-effect.It was turned into a bottleneck in the modernization process of traditional Chinese medicine,which could have made misunderstanding of pharmacological and toxicological knowledge of Chinese herbal medicine and its combination drugs.Owing to the advanced high-throughput platforms and various big data mining technology,metabolomics was capable for simultaneously detecting and depicting the variations of hundreds or even thousands of small molecules offering new opportunities for the PK studies on some complicated components.This review summarized recent PK studies over multicomponent drugs and chiefly introduced two remarkable applications to metabolomics in pharmacokinetics research,Chinmedomics and Poly-PK,integrating the theories of both metabolomics and traditional PK.The challenges and strengths of the two new strategies were also expounded.

Objective To study the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic hepatic caudate lobe resec tion.Methods The clinical data of seven patients who underwent laparoscopic hepatic caudate lobe resection in our hospital were retrospective analyzed.There were 3 male and 4 female patients.The mean age was 45.3 years.The primary diseases included hepatic haemangioma (n =2),metastatic liver cancer (n =2),hepatocellular carcinoma (n =1),recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (n =1) and hepatic adenoma (n =1).The total blood loss,operation time,hospital stay after surgery and complication were analyzed.Results The surgery was successful in all these 7 patients and no patients required any conversion to open surgery.Five patients underwent partial caudate lobe resection,and the remaining 2 underwent combined left hemi hepatectomy with partial caudate lobe resection.The operation time ranged from 200 to 250 minutes with a mean of 235 minutes.The intraoperative blood loss ranged from 40 to 600 ml with a mean of 188 ml.There was no postoperative bleeding and bile leakage.The resections were all R0 resections.Conclusions Laparoscopic hepatic caudate lobe resection was safe and feasible in appropriate patients.Familiarity with anatomy of the liver caudate lobe and skilled laparoscopic techniques are important to carry out this surgery.

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.

Objective:To study the relationship between alpha seine/threonine-protein kinase (p-Akt)-serine/ threonine-protein kinase (mTOR)-ribosomal protein S6 kinase (p70S6K) signaling pathway and clinicopathological features or chemoresistance of ovarian cancer.Methods:We checked the p-Akt,mTOR and p70S6K protein levels in 18 tissues with chemoresistance or 25 with chemosensitivity of ovarian cancer by immunohistochemistry technique,and analyzed the relationship between those proteins and clinicopathological features or chemoresistance of ovarian cancer.Results:The levels of p-Akt protein in ovarian serous carcinoma,mucinous carcinoma and endometrioid carcinoma were 77.14%,50.00% and 66.67%,respectively,with no significant difference (P>0.05).The levels of these proteins in well-middle differentiated carcinoma and low differentiated carcinoma were 73.33% and 75.00%,respectively,with no significant difference (P>0.05).The levels of these proteins in Ⅰ-Ⅱ stage carcinoma,and Ⅲ-Ⅳ stage carcinoma were 18.18% and 93.75%,respectively,with significant difference (P<0.05).The levels ofmTOR protein in ovarian serous carcinoma,mucinous carcinoma and endometrioid carcinoma were 77.14%,100.00% and 83.33%,respectively,with no significant difference (P>0.05).The levels of this protein in well-middle differentiated carcinoma and low differentiated carcinoma were 80.00% and 78.57%,respectively,with no significant difference (P>0.05).The levels of this protein in Ⅰ-Ⅱ stage carcinoma,and Ⅲ-Ⅳ stage carcinoma were 27.27% and 96.88%,respectively,with significant difference (P<0.05).The levels of p70S6K protein in ovarian serous carcinoma,mucinous carcinoma and endometrioid carcinoma were 80.00%,100.00% and 100.00%,respectively,with no significant difference (P>0.05).The levels of this protein in well-middle differentiated carcinoma and low differentiated carcinoma were 93.33% and 78.57%,respectively,with no significant difference (P>0.05).The levels of this protein in Ⅰ-Ⅱ stage carcinoma,and Ⅲ-Ⅳ stage carcinoma were 45.45% and 96.88%,respectively,with significant difference (P<0.05).The levels of p-Akt protein in tissue of chemoresistance and chemosensitivity of ovarian cancer were 88.89% and 64.00%,respectively,with significant difference (P<0.05).The levels of mTOR protein in tissue of chemoresistance and chemosensitivity of ovarian cancer were 94.44% and 68.00%,respectively,with significant difference (P<0.05).The levels of p70S6K protein in tissue of chemoresistance and chemosensitivity of ovarian cancer were 100.00% and 72.00%,respectively,with significant difference (P<0.05).Conclusion:The p-Akt-mTOR-p70S6K signaling pathway may take part in invasion and metastasis of ovarian cancer.The up-regulation of these proteins may be associated with the chemoresistance of ovarian cancer,and these proteins may have potential to be the prognostic markers for the chemoresistance of ovarian cancer.
