Objective To investigate the distribution of single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs) on retinol binding protein 4(RBP4) genes and forkhead box O1 (FOXO1) gene, and their relationships with the occurrence of type Ⅱ diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Chinese Han population. Methods Totally ten SNPs on RBP4 and FOXO1 were determined in 384 T2DM patients and 384 normal controls by TaqMan probe genotyping and agarose gel electrophoresis methods. And their serum level of fasting blood glucose (FBG), total cholesterol (TC) and trigly- ceride (TG) were also estimated. Results For RBP4, there was no significance for various genetypes and alleles including - 803 G > A, + 5169 C > T, and + 6969 G > C between two groups (P > 0.05). Each genotype had no relationships with T2DM (using adjusted logistic regression models). No haplotype was associated with T2DM. For FOXO1, among seven SNPs typed, significant variation was found in the frequency distribution of rs7324943 G/T in the two groups(χ~2=4.02, P = 0.044), and further stratification analysis showed that in subjects of aged 40 and non-hypertension, there was a higher risk of T2DM in GT heterozygous carriers than in GG homozygous carriers (OR = 1.47, 1.80), T allele carriers showed higher risk than non-T carriers (OR = 1.42,1.79). For rs17592236 C/T, though no significant frequency variation was found between two groups (χ~2 = 0.39, P = 0.401), but in subjects of aged ≤ 40, stratification analysis showed dramatically increased risk of T2DM in CT and TT carriers than in CC carriers (OR = 6.33,10.15), T allele carriers showed 7. 11-fold higher risk than non-T carriers. A haplotype CT related to T2DM susceptibility was also found, which could decrease the risk of its carriers by 28%. Conclusions For BBP4, the polymorphisms of - 803 G > A, + 5169 C > T, and + 6969 G > C had no relationships with T2DM in Chinese Han population. For FOXO1, the polymorphism of rs7324943 G/T,rs17592236 C/T and a haplotype CT were found related to the susceptibility of T2DM in Chinese Han population. Yet further studies are necessary to explain the impact of these polymorphisms on the disease occurrence.

OBJECTIVE To assess the outcomesof three different therapeutic approaches for the treatment of T3N0M0(stage Ⅲ) glottic squamous cell carcinoma. METHODS Sixty-five cases of T3N0M0 glottic squamous cell carcinoma treated with curative intent by three different modalities include vertical hemilaryngectomy(VHL,n=21),total laryngectomy(TL,n=31)and radiotherapy(RT,n=13) were reviewed retrospectively. The survival rate,recurrence rate at the primary lesion site and jugular lymph node, and laryngeal preservation was compared among three methods. RESULTS There was no significant difference in the overall survival rates(Cox proportion hazard model) and recurrence rates at the primary lesion site or jugular lymph node among the three methods. Laryngeal function was preserved in 100% of the cases in the VHL and RT groups after initial treatment. CONCLUSION The three treatment modalities had statistically similar survival and recurrence rates. Patients treated with VHL and RT had a higher rate of laryngeal preservation compared to that of TL, hence VHL or RT is a valid alternative to TL in treating selected patients with T3N0M0 glottic squamous cell carcinoma.

Objective To investigate the prognostic factors of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) in patients younger than 45 years. Methods Clinical data of all patients less than 45 years old at presentation with DTC in our hospital from Jan 1985 to Dec 1997 were analyzed retrospectively. Single variable analysis was performed by life-table method. Multivariate analysis was performed by Cox proportional hazard model. Results Two hundred and seventy two cases were analyzed. The overall 10-year survival rate was 93. 0%. The main prognostic factors influencing survival were age at presentation, the status of lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis; distant metastasis was the risk factor independently influencing survival by multivariate analysis. Conclusions Distant metastasis is the factor influencing survival significantly. The prognosis of these patients without distant metastasis is good. Total or near-total thyroidectomy and postoperative 131I therapy may be essential for a better prognosis in patients with distant metastasis.

Objective To investigate the mechanism mediating the regulatory effect of lncRNA MAGI2-AS3 on cisplatin(DDP)resistance in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods MAGI2-AS3 and miR-1269a expression levels were detected by qRT-PCR in DDP-sensitive lung cancer cell lines(A549 and H1299)and their resistant counterparts(A549/DDP and H1299/DDP).In A549 and H1299 cells with MAGI2-AS3 silencing and A549/DDP and H1299/DDP cells overexpressing MAGI2-AS3,the effects of 20 μmol/L DDP on cell viability and apoptosis were examined with CCK-8 assay,colony formation assay,flow cytometry and Western blotting,and the changes in epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)were assessed with wound healing and Transwell assays.The interaction between MAGI2-AS3,miR-1269a and PTEN was predicted using GEPIA,StarBase and miRDB and verified with luciferase reporter gene assay and radioimmunoprecipitation(RIP)assay.A miR-1269a mimic and pcDNA3.1-PTEN plasmid were used to perform the rescue assay.Results MAGI2-AS3 expression was significantly downregulated in lung cancer tissues(P<0.05)in association with a poor prognosis(P<0.05).In the two DDP-resistant lung cancer cell lines,MAGI2-AS3 expression was significantly lowered as compared with the sensitive cells.Silencing MAGI2-AS3 significantly enhanced cell viability and promoted EMT of A549 and H1299 cells irrespective of DDP treatment,and also decreased DDP-induced apoptosis of the cells.In A549/DDP and H1299/DDP cells,MAGI2-AS3 overexpression strongly repressed cell viability and EMT irrespective of DDP treatment and promoted DDP-induced cell apoptosis.Luciferase reporter gene and RIP assays confirmed the binding of MAGI2-AS3 with miR-1269a and the binding of miR-1269a with 3'-UTR domain of PTEN.The rescue assay demonstrated that MAGI2-AS3 acted as a sponge for miR-1269a to promote PTEN expression and downregulate AKT phosphorylation,thus inhibiting EMT and promoting DDP-induced apoptosis of A549/DDP cells.Conclusion MAGI2-AS3 enhances DDP sensitivity of NSCLC by targeted regulation of the miR-1269a/PTEN/AKT signaling axis.
