Objectives:To investigate the clinical significance of the expression level of cytokeratin5/6/18 positive cells in peripheral blood cells from patients with breast carcinoma.Methods:The expression rates of ck5/6/18 positive cells in peripheral blood cells from 56 patients with breast carcinoma were measured and analyzed by flow cytometry.Results:The expression rates of ck5/6/18 positive cells in peripheral blood cells from 56 patients with breast carcinoma was 46.4% and there was significant differences compared with healthy volunteers and the patients with breast benign diseases.The positive rates increased significantly with the pathological staging and show no significant relationship with the ER and PR.Conclusion:The expression of ck5/6/18 positive cells in peripheral blood cells correlates significantly with the pathological staging of breast carcinoma and it could be an effective signal to clinical monitor and prognosis.

Objective To evaluate the expression of WWOX gene in breast cancer and its relation to hypermethylation of WWOX gene CpG island. Methods The expression of WWOX protein was evaluated by immunohistochemical staining in breast cancer cell line and breast cancer tissues.Methylation specific PCR(MSP)was used to check whether it Was methylated in the promoter and exon 1 of WWOX.Results Deletion in the WWOX expression was observed more frequently in invasive breast tumors,(32.2%)than normal breasttissues(5.4%)(P＜0.01).20.3% of premenopause eases were completely negative for WWOX expression compared to 57.2% of postmenopause breast carcinomas(P＜0.01).Furthermore,23.1% of Stage Ⅰ(6/26),28.6%of Stage Ⅱ(10/35),46.2%of Stage Ⅲ(12/26)tunlors showed negative WWOX protein expression.In breast cancer specimens.methylation rate of promoter and exon 1 CpG island of WWOX gene was 55%and 45%respectively.Whereas.WWOX CpG islands of normal mammary tissues were completely unmethylated in all cases.CpG islands of WWOX promoter and exon 1 were methylated in MDA-MB-231 cell line but not MCF-7 cell.Conclusions Some deletion in WWOX expression is common in breast cancer and methylation of WWOX DNA CpG islands plays a crucial role in the silence of WWOX.WWOX may play a role in the carcinogenesis and development of breast cancer.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery in heminephrectomy in children.Methods:The clinical data of 54 children with heminephrectomy in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2017 to December 2019 was analyzed retrospectively, of which 42 cases underwent laparoscopic heminephrectomy (LH group) and 12 cases underwent robot-assisted laparoscopic heminephrectomy (RALH group). In LH group, there were 17 males and 25 females, with an average age of (71.74±34.57)months, 29 on the left and 13 on the right. In RALH group, there were 4 males and 8 females, with an average age of (76.83±37.33) months, 9 on the left and 3 on the right. There was no significant difference in age, sex composition and deformity side between the two groups ( P > 0.05). The clinical indexes such as operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage time, hospital stay and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. Results:There were significant differences in operation time[(196.48±21.92)min vs.(171.50±24.91)min], intraoperative blood loss[(34.14±8.63)ml vs.(18.50±5.92)ml], postoperative drainage time[6.0(5.0, 7.0)d vs. 4.5(3.0, 6.5)d] and postoperative hospital stay[(8.93±1.70)d vs.(7.33±1.37)d] between LH and RALH groups ( P < 0.05). During the follow-up from 3 months to 2 years, the lower kidneys of the two groups developed well and the symptoms before operation such as urinary tract infection, intermittent voiding leakage and dysuria caused by ureterocele were gradually relieved and disappeared after operation. In the LH group, 2 cases were complicated with the symptoms as ureteral stump effusion, cyst formation and recurrent ureteral stump infection after operation, which were cured after reoperation. There was no case of ureteral stump effusion and cyst formation in the RALH group. Conclusions:Robot-assisted laparoscopic heminephrectomy in children has shorter intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage time and hospital stay, lower incidence of postoperative complications, and has better efficacy and safety.

Objective:In order to get recombinant protein OCILRP 2-Fc and anti-OCILRP2 antibody for further study of OCILRP2.Methods:Eukaryotic expression vector pIg-CD5-OCILRP2 which fused with extracellular domain of OCILRP 2 and human IgG1 Fc fragment was constructed.G418 was used for stable expression cell strain after pIg-CD5-OCILRP2 transfected into CHO cells.Recombinant protein OCILRP 2-Fc purified from CHO cell supernatant was used to immunize rabbit and anti-OCILRP2 polyclonal antibody was purified from rabbit serum by using protein G column.Results: ELISA data showed that we got a high-titer anti-serum and anti-OCILRP2 antibody purified from the rabbit serum.Western blot indicated this antibody could specifically bind to OCILRP 2-Fc and OCILRP2 in NIH/3T3 lysate.OCILRP2 expression in murine bone marrow derived dendritic cells ( DC) was detected by this polyclonal antibody ,too.Compared to immature DC ,OCILRP2 expression was elevated in LPS induced-mature DC.Conclusion: This study has offered an available tool and provided a clue for further study of the roles of OCILRP 2 in immune response.
