cases were histologically confirmed to be patients with squamous cell carcinoma, 4 cases to be patients with adenocarcinoma. The majority of the patients received stereotatic radiotherapy on the basis of external radiation. The single dose for stereotatic radiation was 5～10Gy, once every two days, 4～8 fractions, the total dose was 26～42 Gy by using 5～6 non-coplanar stationary beams or arc radiation. The patients′ CT was checked 2～3 months after treatment, there were 8 cases of CR( 26.7%), 18 cases of PR(60%),4 case of NR (13.3%).The median survival time was 12 months and the survival of 1 year and 2 years was 84 % and 61.2% (using Kaplan-Meier methods). The total effective rate was 86.7%. The results suggested that stereotatic radiotherapy (SRT) is effective for lung cancer at palliative and radical treatment. Combined with external irradiation, it can increase the doses of target and shorten the course of treatment.

Objective To observe the substance P(SP) and calcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP) expressions in the temporomandibular joints(TM J) of the rats undergone emotional stress and explore the relationship between emotional stress and temporomandibular joint disorder(TMD). Methods Ninety SD rats were averagely randomly divided into emotional stress ( ES ) group( n = 30 ), electric foot-shocked (FS) group ( n = 30 ) and control (CON) group( n = 30). The emotional stress was induced by communication box. The TMJ tissues in ES and CON groups were removed after 1, 3 and 5 weeks of emotional stress for scanning electron microscope ( SEM ) test and immunohistochemistry test. The SP and CGRP expressions were examined with SABC immunohistochemistry and then analyzed by image analysis system. Results The expressions of SP and CGRP had significant difference after 1 ,3 and 5 weeks emotional stress ( SP: 124.5 ± 16.9,185.6 ± 1.8 and 193.5 ± 3.5, respectively; CGRP: 185.9 ±5.3, 112.5 ±5.2 and 174.3 ±5.3 ,respectively) (P＜0. 05 ). The SEM results showed that there was a series of structural change on the condylar surface after emotional stress. Conclusion The SP and CGRP energy nerve fibers take part in the TMJ pathological process undergone emotional stress.

Background:Secondary lymphoid tissue chemokine( SLC)is involved in lymphoid homing and anti-tumor immune response,and has a chemotactic effect on intestinal lymphocytes. Several animal studies have shown that SLC is involved in the occurrence and development of ulcerative colitis( UC). Aims:To investigate the expression and significance of SLC in UC. Methods:Forty active UC patients from Dec. 2010 to Dec. 2012 at Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University were enrolled,and 20 healthy volunteers were served as controls. Expression of SLC in the colon mucosa was detected by immunohistochemistry,and its relationship with severity of UC was analyzed. Results:SLC was positively expressed in all UC patients,while was negatively or weakly positively expressed in controls. Expression of SLC in UC patients was significantly higher than that in controls(4. 16 ± 0. 78 vs. 0. 52 ± 0. 11,P<0. 05). Expression of SLC was correlated with the severity of involvement of UC. Conclusions:Expression of SLC participates in development and progress of UC. SLC may play an important role in the induction of local damage and pathological changes of UC.

Objective Endogenous cadiac stem cells become the famous star in the cardiac regeneration field in recent years.But the biological behavior of cardiac stem cells has not been fully explained clearly.This experiment intends to research the cardiac stem cell niche and its characteristics,as well as the succinct method for cardiac stem cells (Cardiospheres derived cells) culture in vitro.Methods Hearts from four 8-week-old SD rats were cut into pieces less than I mm3.Then,the small tissues were digested by trypsogen and collagenase in turn.And the undigested myocardium was collected and cultured in media until the de novo cells bespread the pertri-dish bottom.The 3rd generation of cardiac stem cells were harvested and prepared for immunofluorescence to detect the expression of related molecular markers,so as to identify the differentiation of these stem cells.Then,the cultural tissues were collected and embedded in paraffin,and the H-E staining,Masson staining,immunoflnorescence and TUNEL apoptosis assay were carried out.In addition,EdU was added into the medium and cuhured for 72 hours before the cultural tissues were harvested so as to label the proliferative cells.Results After 7 ～ 10 days in culture,some small,round and phase-bright cells aresed from the adherent plated tissue.These cells had the spontaneous differentiation potency in vitro culture.The immunofluorescence shows mitotic phase cells were c-kit positive,and most of passage cells were α-sarcomeric actin 、cardiac troponin T、flk-1 and vemintin positive while CD90 negative,but few of them were α-smooth muscle actin 、conexin-43 、CD31 and CD45 positive.There were lots of newborn cells grow exuberantly while accompanied apoptosis of myocardial cells in the paraffin section.The myocardial collagen remodels in the cultural myocardial tissues at the same time.The proliferative cells in the cultural tissues were EdU positive.Throe myocardium within the cultural tissues were MMP-2、MMP-9 and TGF-β1 positive,On the contrary,the proliferative cells were almost negative when stained with those antibodies.Conclusion Conclusions It's a convenient way to harvest cardiac stem cells by the use of myocarlial? tissues cultured in vitro.Those stem cells grow and proliferate in the cultural myocardial tissues accompanied with the degradation of extracellular matrix.Cardiospheres derived stem cells have the spontaneous differentiation potency when cultured in vito,and should be a promising? seed cells for stem cell therapy.

Objective To investigate the repair effect of low intensity ultrasound on radioactive mandibule bone to provide new idea for prevention of osteoradionecrosis of the mandibule after irradiation.Methods The animal models of radioactive mandibular injury were made and treated with low intensity ultrasound.Low intensity ultrasound treatment group ( Group Ⅱ ) and not with low intensity ultrasound treatment group (Group Ⅰ ) were observed by microvessel density detection,micro-CT,ponceau trichrome stain and so on,and compared with control group.Then,the obtained data were statistically analyzed.Results The animal models of radioactive mandibular injury were successfully established.The microvessel density in Group Ⅱ was greater than that in Group Ⅰ.The bone volume fraction,trabecular thickness,bone surface/bone volume and the trabecular number in Group Ⅱ were significantly larger than those in Group Ⅰ (P ＜ 0.05).The ponceau trichrome staining showed that the osteocytes largely disappeared and that the cancellous bone trabecular atrophied in Group Ⅰ,while new bone formation,trabecular and numerous osteoblasts around trabecular were largely observed in Group Ⅱ.Conclusion Low intensity ultrasound has a good recovery effect on bone tissue after irradiation.

Objective To investigate the role of psychological intervention in the prevention of the temporomandibular joint disease (TMD) , through the observation of the relative changes in the rat TMJ under psychological stress after psychological intervention. Methods The rat model of communication box was built to exert the psychological stress. The antianxiety agent was applied before stress, and the stressor was removed after stress. The expression of the proinflammatory cytokines IL-1 and TNF-α in the mandibular condylar chondrocytes in rat TMJ was detected by ELISA and RT-PCR. Results The RT-PCR results showed that the expression of IL-1 mR-NA increased into the peak in the 1st week, weakened in the 3rd week, and returned to normal in the 5th week, while the TNF-αmRNA peaked in the 1st week, returned to normal in the 3rd week. The ELISA results showed that there was no significant difference of the OD value of the serum IL-1 and TNF-α(0. 095 ±0. 006,0. 077 ± 0.007,0.069 ±0.009 ;0.079 ±0.010,0.075 ±0. 009,0.079 ± 0.012) in the antianxiety agent group (0. 107 ± 0.024,0. 101 ±0.005,0.088 ±0.010)and the stressor removal group(0. 090 ±0.016,0. 088 ±0.005,0.089 ± 0.011) , compared with the control group(0.087 ±0.004,0.090 ±0.009,0.089 ±0.010;0.074 ±0.008,0.069 ±0.015,0.068 ±0.011) (P>0.05), while significant differences were observed when compared with the psychological stress group(0.282 ±0.045,0.226 ±0.021,0.092 ±0.002;0. 164 ±0.009,0.123 ±0.013,0.091 ± 0.006) (P<0.05 ).
