Bone remains the predominant site of metastasis in advanced breast cancer. Bone metastases dramatically decrease the quality of life. Moreover, pathologic fractures and other skeletal-related events (SREs) caused by bone metastases could result in higher mortality risk in patients with breast cancer. Palliative radiotherapy is a crucial element in bone metastases treatment. The present review discusses the emerging evidence in bone metastases of breast cancer, focusing on optimized radiotherapy strategies and multidisciplinary management.

Objective To investigate the expression of glucocorticoid receptor(GR), GR? mRNA and GR? mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC)of patients with multiple sclerosis(MS) and healthy controls and investigate the relationship between GR protein, GR? mRNA, GR? mRNA and intravenous injection methylprednisolone(IVMP)effect.Methods GR in PBMC was measured by radioligand assays in 20 patients with relapsing-remitting MS(RRMS), 6 with the second progressive MS (SPMS)and 26 healthy controls.Semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)was used to detect the expression of GR? mRNA and GR? mRNA in PBMC of patients with MS and healthy controls.The effect of IVMP was evaluated by the expanded disability status scale(EDSS). Results(1)Before IVMP, GR in PBMC of MS was significantly lower(RRMS:(3.8?0.2)?10~3 site/cell;SPMS:(1.6?0.2)?10~3 site/cell)than those of controls((4.2?0.8)?10~3 site/cell, P

Objective To establish an expression system of TCR?9/?2-Fc protein by baculovirus vector expression system and identify biological function of expressed TCR?9/?2-Fc protein.Methods ?9Fc and ?2(OT3)Fc gene fragments were amplified by overlap PCR and inserted into expression vector pBACp10ph.The recombinant plasmid pBACp10ph-?9/?2(OT3)-Fc and the baculovirus DNA were co-transfected into sf9 cells.The expression position of TCR?9/?2(OT3)-Fc was identified by Western blot and the expression efficiency of ?9Fc and ?2(OT3)Fc was tested by flow cytometry(FCM).Furthermore,the binding activity of TCR?9/?2(OT3)-Fc protein with SKOV3 cells and MNS protein was evaluated with laser scanning confocal microslopy and surface plasmon resonance(SPR).Results The recombinant vector pBACp10ph-?9/?2(OT3)-Fc was constructed and TCR?9/?2(OT3)-Fc protein was expressed in sf9 cells.However,the expression efficiency of ?9Fc and ?2(OT3)Fc was quite different.It was proved that purified TCR?9/?2(OT3)-Fc protein can bind with SKOV3 cell and MNS protein.Conclusion TCR?9/?2-Fc protein is successfully expressed in baculovirus vector expression system and TCR?9/?2-Fc protein can simulate the binding activity of TCR in vitro.

ObjectiveTo study the technique and therapeutic effect of percutaneous cannulate screw fixation to treat the traumatic diastasis of the pubic symphysis.MethodsFrom February 2003 to December 2010,46 patients (27 men and 19 women,mean age of 34.6 years) with unstable pelvic fractures and diastasis of the pubic symphysis were admitted.All the patients were treated by closed reduction and percutaneous cannulate screw fixation of the symphysis pubis.Then to complete the fixation of posterior ring,by percutaneous screw inserted through the sacroiliac joint or posterior iliac wing.According to Tile's classification,the patients were classified into type B1.1 in 4 cases,B1.2 in 7,B2 in 2,B3 in 2,C1.1 in 7,C1.2 in 7,C1.3 in 10,C2 in 5 and C3 in 2.All patients were performed posterior ring fixation except 4 cases of type B1.1.Anteroposterior,inlet and outlet X-ray radiographs and CT scans of the pelvis were taken preoperatively to evaluate the stability and deformities,and after surgery the plain radiographs and CT scans were taken to evaluate the reduction and the location of screws.ResultsThe average operative time was 45 min (range,15-65 min),and the average intraoperative blood loss was 25 ml (range,15-50 ml).Each patient was inserted one screw in the symphysis pubis.Thirty-five patients underwent postoperative pelvic CT scan and 3screws of them penetrated the wall of symphysis pubis.The average follow-up period was 23.5 months (range,5-48 months).In the follow-up period,no infection and displacement were found.The last follow-up result:according to Matta and Tornetta's standard,the result was excellent in 43 cases and good in 3.Among all patients,31 cases (67.39%) had returned to their original works,6 were to give up their original works as complicating injuries; 28 cases had no pain,13 cases had slight pain of the symphysis pubis while to make an effort,5 cases had pain of sacroiliac joint.There were no iatrogenic injury of nerve.ConclusionClosed reduction and percutaneous cannulate screw fixation of the traumatic diastasis of the pubic symphysis is a safe,feasible and easy manipulated method.The operative injuries is small and the clinical outcome is satisfactory.

With the implementation of the strategies for the development of our country through science and education and talents, and of the"211 and 985 projects", there has been a more substantial increase in the scientific and technological strength and international competitiveness of research universities, reflected in the year-by-year increase in the number and total funding of research projects taken up by universities, and in the output results. All the achievements rely on the increasing investment of the government in the fields of science and technology and on hard-working scholars and students who devote themselves to scientific research, as well as the prospective planning and scientific decision making of leaders, and the concerted efforts, standard management and guiding service of the administrative departments. In the present paper the important role of the president's office of a university in ensuring that research work can be running smoothly is explored through analysis on the assistant role of the president's office of Peking University Health Science Center, and its practice in the provision of service-oriented management and promotion of the innovation and development of scientific research by close cooperation with the research management department and integrated coordination of all the individual administrative departments.

A new, convenient, and rapid method for kinetic measurement of human fibrinolysis was established. The alteration of absorbance (A) in the process of blood coagulation and lyses was automatically scanned and recorded using a UV2000 spectrophotometer connected to a computer. The parameters of human fibrinolysis kinetics were established. Urokinase at 20 U/mL was the optimal concentration used. There was significant difference in fibrinolysis kinetics and plasma plasminogen concentration between 22 normal subjects and 27 patients with acute myeloblastic leukemia (P<0.05 and <0.01 respectively). The coefficience of variation was (5.24+/-1.51)%. This method could also be used to measure the plasma fibrinogen concentration at the same time. It was concluded that this method was stable and was capable of providing dynamic, direct experimental data and multiparemeters for clinicians. It was also valuable in evaluating the anti-and pro-fibrinolytic capcity of patients' plasmas, allowing for monitoring of therapy, choice of drugs and adjustment of drug concentrations.

AIM:To explore the roles of Akt ( also called protein kinase B ) and active caspase-3 in the leptin-mediated chronic morphine antinociceptive tolerance in rats .METHODS: A model of chronic morphine antinociceptive tolerance was established in the SD rats .The protein levels of spinal Akt and cleaved caspase-3 were tested by Western blotting.The technique of immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the immunoreactivity positive cells of phospho -rylated ( p)-Akt and cleaved caspase-3 in the spinal cord .Double staining of immunohistochemistry was used to examine the cellular location of the p-Akt and cleaved caspase-3 positive cells.RESULTS: The chronic intrathecal injection of morphine (15 μg) for 7 d markedly upregulated the spinal protein levels of p-Akt and cleaved caspase-3 in the rats.Thirty min before injection of morphine , intrathecal injection of leptin antagonist (3μg) for 7 d significantly attenuated the upreg-ulation of the protein levels of p-Akt and cleaved caspase-3 induced by chronic morphine treatment .The p-Akt was exclu-sively observed in the spinal neurons .The cleaved caspase-3 was only localized with the spinal astrocytes .Intrathecal injec-ting the inhibitors of leptin , Akt and caspase-3 ameliorated the chronic antinociceptive tolerance .CONCLUSION: The spinal Akt pathway and active caspase-3 are involved in the leptin-mediated chronic morphine antinociceptive tolerance in rats.
