Objective To explore the toxicity and safety of 32P-CP-PLLA seeds interstitial implantation. Methods 30 beagle dogs were randomly divided into 10 groups according to different drugs (32P-CP-PLLA and 32P-CP),different doses (185, 370 and 740 MBq) and different sites (gluteus and liver). At different time-points after surgery, the weights of dogs were measured. The blood routine and blood biochemical indexes,PC Ⅲ ,HA,CG,PCⅣ and LN were examined. ECT imaging was performed and histology was observed dynamically. Blood, urine and faeces were measured continuously for 12 weeks and 30 days, respectively. Results ECT imaging demonstrated in seed groups and 32P-CP muscle groups radioactivity concentrated continuously in the area of implantation, without liver imaging. 471.67 MBq/m2 of 32 P-CP was injected in liver,while the absorbed dose was 31 Gy,without significant liver damage. When the dose was 794. 28 MBq/m2 , the absorbed dose was 56 Gy,with strong liver and systemic toxicity. But implanting seeds at the same or higher dose, the absorbed dose was 89.83-178.68 Gy in the area of implantation, and the rest liver was 1.09-2. 18 Gy,without liver damage. Dogs in liver group died at 23, 29 and 45 d, respectively, and the inspections of liver fibrosis were higher than the means of the other groups.Blood routine and blood biochemistry indexes between the other groups showed no significant differences.Effective half-life of 32P-CP-PLLA was 11.78 d, while that of 32P-CP was 6. 82 d in liver, and 8. 73 d in gluteus. Mild to moderate injury were found in liver group at 4 weeks. Moderate to serious injury were found. Liver cell necrosis and proliferation were found at 4-6 weeks in other liver groups. In muscle groups,only cellular edema was found in muscle groups at 2 week. The radioactivity count rate in blood for seed groups showed slowly jagged decreasing over time, and decreased exponentially for 32PCP groups. The radioactivity count rate in urine and faeces were multi-peak descending in seed groups. Conclusions 32P-CP-PLLA seeds have the advantages of suitable target location, degradable, non-migration and easy to protection, and it could be used in treatment for different blood supply types of solid tumors. Liver of beagle dog could endure the dose from 32 P-CP-PLLA seed twice as 32P-CP lethal dose.

Objective To investigate the role of alprostadil on hepatic perfusion after transarterial chemoembolization(TACE) for hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods Sixty-four consecutive patients with HCC were randomized to either treatment with PGE_1 after TACE (treatment group, 32 cases) or no additional treatment after TACE (control group, 32 cases). In PGE_1 group, Lipo-PGE_1 was administered intravenously once a day for total of seven days, once after completion of TACE. The dosage of Lipo-PGE_1 was 0.4μg/kg and rote 0.05 μg·kg~(-1)·min~(-1). In control group, regular TACE was used. All patients underwent hepatic CT perfusion within 1 week before TACE and 4 weeks after TACE. The parameters of hepatic perfusion, including hepatic arterial perfusion value (HAP), portal vein perfusion value (PVP), total liver perfusion value (TLP) , and hepatic arterial perfusion index (HPI) were measured and compared. Chi-Square test was used for comparison of CT perfusion parameters in different stage, and t test was used for comparison of each CT porfusion parameter between two groups. Results In control group, HAP of pre-TACE, 4 weeks after first TACE, and 4 weeks after second TACE was (0.18±0.08), (0.22±0.09), (0.32±0.10) ml·min~(-1)·ml~(-1), respectively. Likewise, PVP was (1.11±0.31)、(0.82±0.27)、(0.59±0.25) ml·min~(-1)·ml~(-1), respectively, and TLP was (1.29±0.33), (1.04±0.28), (0.91±0.24) ml·min~(-1)·ml~(-1), respectively, and HPI was (14.31±6.36)%, (21.37±9.07)%, (36.67±13.42)%, respectively. The perfusion parameters at different stages of TACE were statistically different (F=19.71,27.47,14.75,41.41, P<0.05). In PGE1 group, HAP before TACE, after first TACE, and after second TACE was (0.17±0.08), (0.20±0.08), (0.26±0.08) ml·min~(-1)·mi~(-1) respectively, and PVP was (1.09±0.36), (1.03±0.40), (0.91±0.41) ml·min~(-1)·ml~(-1), respectively, and TLP was (1.26±0.38), (1.23±0.40), (1.17±0.44) ml·min~(-1)·ml~(-1) respectively, and HPI was (14.04±6.71)%, (17.26±7.86)%, (23.93±8.96)%, respectively. The difference of HAP and HPI at different stage of TACE was significant (F = 10.78, 13.05, P < 0.05), but there was no significant difference both PVP and TLP (F = 1.73,0.39, P > 0.05). The difference of PVP and TLP between the control and PGE1 group was significant after first TACE(t = -2.37, -2.14, P <0.05)and second TACE (t = 2.55, - 4.49, P < 0.05) In addition, after the second TACE, the HAP and HPI were also significantly different (t = - 3.41,5.09, P < 0.05). Conclusions PVP and TLP decrease while HAP and HPI increase after TACE. Lipo-PGE1 improves hepatic peffusion after TACE, exerting its greatest effect by increasing portal vein perfusion. Consequently, treatment with Lipo-PGE1 appears to increase liver tissue perfusion and thereby alleviate injury induced by TACE.

Objective: Cell cycle has recently become more appealing as a new target of anti-carcinogen-ic agent. Diallyl disulfide (DADS) inhibits growth and induces call cycle G_2/M arrest in human gastric cancer BGC823 cells. Cell division cycle protein 25C (Cdc25C) and CyclinB1 expression are involved in G_2/M arrest.However, mechanisms of G_2/M arrest are not yet fully understood. The aim of this study was to elucidate the mechanism of cell cycle G_2/M arrest in human gastric cancer BGC823 cells induced by DADS. Methods: The expression of chk1 and Chk2 mRNA associated with cell cycle arrest of BGC823 cells after the induction with DADS for 1 or 2 days was detected by RT-PCR. The protein expression of cycle-related proteins ATM-RAD3-related gene (ATR), checkpoint kinase1 (Chk1), checkpoint kinase 2 (Chk2), P-ATR, P-Chk1 and P-Chk2 was measured by Western blot. Interaction between Chk1/2 and Cdc25C was analyzed by immuno-precipitation. Results: After the cells were treated with 15 mg/L DADS for 1 or 2 days, the expression of Chk1 and Chk2 mRNA was not significantly different from that in untreated cells (P>0.05). Western blot analysis showed that the expression of total Chk1 and Chk2 treated with 15 mg/L DADS was not significantly different from that in untreated cells. But phospho-chk1 showed a significant increase after stimulation with 15 mg/L DADS for 2h to 12h and continued to increase gradually as time went on (P<0.05). Phospho-Chk2 showed a eak expression and a weaker expression after stimulation with DADS, but the changes were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Addition of 15 mg/L DADS to BGC823 cells for 15 rain to 120 min resulted in an increase in phospho-ATR expression, whereas no changes were found in ATR expression (P<0.05). The Chk1 Ab in-creasingly precipitated Cdc25C in BGC823 cells treated with DADS (P<0.05). In contrast, Chk2 Ab failed to change precipitation with Cdc25C by DADS (P>0.05). Conclusion: Activation of chk1 was involved in cell cy-cle G_2/M arrest in BGC823 cells treated with DADS. Cell cycle G_2/M arrest by DADS is associated with phos-phorylation of several cell cycle regulatory proteins including ATR and Chk1 which regulate expression of Cdc25C.

Five patients with primary malignancies in the pterygopalatine fossa (PPF) and infra temporal fossa (ITF) were enrolled in this retrospective study between January 2012 and January 2018. After malignancies proven by biopsy and evaluation with CT and MRI scan, all patients received modified maxillary swing (MMS) approach for extirpation of malignant tumors in the PPF and ITF under general anesthesia. En bloc resection with wide surgical margins was successfully performed in all cases. Negative margins were observed in 4 cases and positive margins were found in one patient with adenoid cystic carcinoma who received postoperative radiotherapy. The most common complication was facial numbness. During the follow-up period (range 12 to 57 months), one patient suffered from recurrence while others did not. The advantages of MMS include wide surgical field, full exposure and easy manipulation. The MMS approach is expected to become an standard method for monobloc resection of malignancies in the PPF and ITF.

Objective:
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of pegylated recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (PEG-rhG-CSF) in prophylaxis neutropenia after chemotherapy in patients with lymphoma.
Methods:
This was a multicenter, single arm, open, phase Ⅳ clinical trial. Included 410 patients with lymphoma received multiple cycles of chemotherapy and PEG-rhG-CSF was administrated as prophylactic. The primary endpoint was the incidence of Ⅲ/Ⅳ grade neutropenia and febrile neutropenia (FN) after each chemotherapy cycle. Meanwhile the rate of antibiotics application during the whole period of chemotherapy was observed.
Results:
①Among the 410 patients, 8 cases (1.95%) were contrary to the selected criteria, 35 cases (8.54%) lost, 19 cases (4.63%) experienced adverse events, 12 cases (2.93%) were eligible for the termination criteria, 15 cases (3.66%) develpoed disease progression or recurrence, thus the rest 321 cases (78.29%) were into the Per Protocol Set. ②During the first to fourth treatment cycles, the incidences of grade Ⅳ neutropenia after prophylactic use of PEG-rhG-CSF were 19.14% (49/256) , 12.5% (32/256) , 12.18% (24/197) , 13.61% (20/147) , respectively. The incidences of FN were 3.52% (9/256) , 0.39% (1/256) , 2.54% (5/197) , 2.04% (3/147) , respectively. After secondary prophylactic use of PEG-rhG-CSF, the incidences of Ⅳ grade neutropenia decreased from 61.54% (40/65) in the screening cycle to 16.92% (11/65) , 18.46% (12/65) and 20.75% (11/53) in 1-3 cycles, respectively. The incidences of FN decreased from 16.92% (11/65) in the screening cycle to 1.54% (1/65) , 4.62% (3/65) , 3.77% (2/53) in 1-3 cycles, respectively. ③The proportion of patients who received antibiotic therapy during the whole period of chemotherapy was 34.39% (141/410) . ④The incidence of adverse events associated with PEG-rhG-CSF was 4.63% (19/410) . The most common adverse events were bone pain[3.90% (16/410) ], fatigue (0.49%) and fever (0.24%) .
Conclusion
During the chemotherapy in patients with lymphoma, the prophylactic use of PEG-rhG-CSF could effectively reduce the incidences of grade Ⅲ/Ⅳ neutropenia and FN, which ensures that patients with lymphoma receive standard-dose chemotherapy to improve its cure rate.
