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 establish an expression system of TCRγ9/δ2-Fc protein by baculovirus vector ex-pression system and identify biological function of expressed TCRγ9/δ2-Fc protein. Methods γ9Fc and 82 (OT3) Fc gene fragments were amplified by overlap PCR and inserted into expression vector pBACp10ph. The recombinant plasmid pBACp10ph-γ9/δ2(OT3)-Fc and the baculovirus DNA were co-transfected into st9 cells. The expression position of TCRγ9/δ2 (OT3)-Fc was identified by Western blot and the expression efficiency of γ9Fc and δ2 (OT3) Fc was tested by flow cytometry (FCM). Furthermore, the binding activity of TCRγ9/δ2 (OT3)-Fc protein with SKOV3 ceils and MNS protein was evaluated with laser scanning confocal microslopy and surface plasmon resonance (SPR). Results The recombinant vector pBACp10ph-γ9/δ2(OT3)-Fc was constructed and TCRγ9/δ2(OT3)-Fc protein was expressed in sf9 ceils. However, the expression efficiency of γ9Fc and 82 (0T3) Fc was quite differ-ent. It was proved that purified TCRγ9/δ2 (OT3)-Fc protein can bind with SKOV3 cell and MNS protein. Conclu-sion TCRγ9/δ2-Fc protein is successfully expressed in baculovirus vector expression system and TCRγ9/δ2-Fc protein can simulate the binding activity of TCR in vitro.

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.

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.

Objective To test the reliability and validity of the brief International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) core sets for Chinese stroke patients using Rasch model analysis. Methods The body functions of 38 Chinese stroke patients were measured using the brief ICF core sets. The qualifiers of the 20items were measured by two raters and analyzed using FACETS statistical software. The intra-rater reliability and validity were tested by using the separation index and separation reliability and fit analysis. Results The brief ICF core sets had good internal consistency and reliability (person separation index = 6.02, person separation reliability = 0.94 ) with these Chinese patients. The raters showed significantly different strictness in rating, but their ratings had good internal self-consistency. The construct validity was good for the body functions of the ICF component ( separation index = 10.50, separation reliability = 0.80) , but misfitting and overfitting were found in items b117, b152and b755. Conclusion The body function of the brief ICF core sets has good reliability and validity for Chinese stroke patients. A many-facet Rasch measurement model can provide comprehensive information and has good application prospects for testing the reliability and validity of ICF core sets.

BACKGROUND:Umbilical cord blood stem cel s can be differentiated into functional liver cel s in vivo, instead of mature liver cel s in the treatment of liver diseases. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of umbilical cord blood stem cel transplantation on decompensated cirrhosis in rats. METHODS:Twenty Sprague-Dawley rats were enrol ed and given 40%carbon tetrachloride peanut oil to make decompensated cirrhosis models. Eight weeks after modeling, model rats were randomized into control and experimental groups (n=10 per group), and subjected to injection of umbilical cord blood stem cel suspension (2 mL, 1.0×107/L) or cel culture medium (2 mL) via the tail vein, respectively. At 4 weeks after injection, levels of serum aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, albumin, total bilirubin, hyaluronic acid, laminin, procol agen III and type IV col agen were detected;rat liver tissues were sliced for pathological observation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the control group, the albumin level was significantly increased but the levels of serum aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, total bilirubin, hyaluronic acid, laminin, procol agen III and type IV col agen decreased significantly in the experimental group (P<0.05). From the pathological view, severity of liver cirrhosis was lower in the experimental group than the control group. Therefore, umbilical cord blood stem cel transplantation can effectively restore the liver function of decompensated cirrhosis in rats.
