Objective To study the expression of survivin in malignant pleomorphic adenoma,relay pleomorphic adenoma and pleomorphic adenoma.Methods The transcription and interpretation of urvivin mRNA in the salivary gland tumor were analyzed via immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization methods.Results Survivin mRNA expression and protein expression were almost the same in malignant pleomorphic adenoma,relay pleomorphic adenoma and pleomorphic adenoma.But they were different in the gland around the malignant pleomorphic adenoma.There was a significant difference of Survivin mRNA and protein expression in pleomorphic adenoma and malignant pleomorphic adenoma,and relay pleomorphic adenoma.The expressions were almost the same in relay and malignant pleomorphic adenoma.Conclusion The expression of survivin mRNA and protein is increased in pleomorphic adenoma and may be involved in the onset and progression of pleomorphic adenoma.It indicates that mRNA is relatively stable in the mRNA transcription and protein interpretation in malignant pleomorphic adenoma,and it is also showed earlier in gene amplification than in protein expression of the malignant tumor in the initial stage of malignant pleomorphic adenoma.Survivin can be a new diagnostic/therapeutic target in pleomorphic adenoma.

Tumor growth depends on the tumor microenvironment(TME).Tumor-associated neutrophils(TANs)are important inflammatory cells in TME.TANs are divided intoN1type with anti-tumor effect andN2type of tumor-promoting effect.Therefore,TANs have both beneficial and harmful aspects of the body.A large number of studies have been shown that TANs affect tumor formation,metastasis,angiogenesis and immune response,regulated by the secretion of cytokines and chemokines.This review will summarize the biological characteristics of TANs,and tumor development,prognosis and treatment of tumor as well as research progress of the relationship between TANs and tumor.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect and safety of homemade biodegradable drug eluting stents(Excel stents)in patients with coronary heart disease.Methods Two hundred and twelve patients who received Excel stents implantation during February,2006 to March 2007 were included in the study.Procedural success rate and complications during hospitalization were monitored and all the patients were followed up clinically up to 8-21 months after discharge.Results The procedural success rate was 99.1%(210/212).A total of 420 Excel stents were implanted while direct stenting was applied in 125 patients(29.8%).Sudden cardiac death happened in 1 patient during hospitalization.Two hundred and six patients finished their clinical follow up and among them,6 patients had recurrant angina.Fifty patients received CAG examination 6-9 months after PCI and 2 patients reached the criteria of restenosis(stenosis ≥50%)and required revascularization.Conclusion Homemade biodegradable drug eluting stents(Excel stents)are safe and effective for PCI in coronary heart disease patients.

Objective To detect content of 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy benzoic acid by RP-HPLC and observe the inhibitory effect of phloroglucinol on catecholamine-O-methyl transferase (COMT). Methods This study used the principle of 3,4-dihydroxy benzoic acid transforming to 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy benzoic acid under COMT’ s catalytic action. COMT (20 μL) was extracted from mouse liver homogenate. In a reaction system,10 μL catecol (1í10-3 mol·L-1 ) and 10 μL phloroglucinol (5í10-3 , 1í10-3 and 2í10-4 mol·L-1 ,respectively) were added. Products were determined by RP-HPLC to analyze effects of 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy benzoic acid on COMT. Results Phloroglucinol had inhibitory effect on COMT activity at concentrations of 5í10-3 mol·L-1 ,1í10-3 mol·L-1 and 2 í10-4 mol ·L-1 ,with the inhibition rate being 25. 3% ,17. 6% and 8. 9% ,respectively. Conclusion Phloroglucinol has an inhibitory effect on COMT activity,which is weaker than the effect of catechol of the same concentration.

Cisplatin is effective in the treatment of various solid tumors. However, its clinical application is limited because of the severe side-effects such as nephrotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, ototoxicity and so on. Drug combination is advocated in clinics for synergism and detoxication. In order to provide some referencs for the research of drug combination and clinical treatment regimen, the research advances in the synergism and detoxication of drug combination of cisplatin with chemicals/ traditional Chinese medicines in recent years are reviewed in the paper.

Objective To perform the clinical characferistics of diagnosis and treatment of duodenal trauma and to improve the result of surgical treatment in patients with duodenal injury.Methods The clinical data of 32 cases with duodenal injury were analyzed retrospectively.Results All cases were surgically treated.26 cases were cured 13 cases were with complications,of which 9 cases with duodenal fistula,4 cases with peritoneal infection.6 cases died.Conclusion Early diagnosis and surgical treatment,proper management and intensive postoperative care can improve the result of patients with duodenal trauma and decrease complications.

Objective To discuss the Survivin protein expression in different salivary gland tumor.(Methods)This experiment was based on tissue chip technology.Expression of Survivin protein in the salivary gland tumor was analyzed with immunohistochemical methods.Results ① Survivin expression showed significant difference in the salivary gland benign and malignant tumors(P0.05).The gland around the malignant tumor showed diversity compared with malignant tumor(P0.05).Conclusion Survivin expression has correlation with the relay tumor canceration,and the gland around malignant tumor has correlation with occurrence,progress,prognosis in the salivary gland malignant tumor,and it is a reliable marker of earlier period diagnosis and prognosis of the malignant tumor of salivary gland.

The tumor microenvironment plays a vital role in the process of tumorigenesis and development.Studies have been confirmed that the tumor microenvironment heterogeneity has a huge impact on the tumor efficacy and drug resistance.This review summarizes the relationship between immune cells and related immune factors in tumor microenvironment as well as vascular endothelial cell heterogeneity and tumor progression and prognosis.So it is better help us understand the tumor microenvironment heterogeneity for the impact of the tumor.This will conduce to us through a variety of methods to enhance the body's anti-tunor ability by inhibi-ting and killing tumor cells.

Objective To investigate the change of the fibrin monomer (FM) level in the venous thromboembolic disease (VTE).To compare the diagnostic value of FM combined Wells score with the other detection methods.Methods In this case control study,121 cases were selected from the patients who were from general and orthopeadic surgery (including thrombosis group in 60 cases and non thrombosis group in 61 cases).The patients were assessed by Wells score.From one day before surgery, Plasma d-dimer (D-D) and fibrin monomer (FM) were periodic measured by CP-2000 d-dimer and fibrin monomer.Evaluation the value of d-dimer,fibrin monomer and fibrin monomer combined with Wells score in diagnosis of venous thromboembolic disease.The receiver operation cure(ROC) was drew to determine the diagnostic performance.Results The plasma FM level of patients with VTE in the thrombus group (26.11±38.34) μg/ml is higher than the non thrombus group (6.56±6.81) μg/ml and the control group (2.37±0.89) μg/ml (t=-3.82, t=-4.78,P<0.01);the sensitivity of FM was lower than the D-D (85% vs 93%);then the positive predictive value was lower than D-D (82% vs 87%) (χ2=27.01,P=0.000)but its specificity and negative predictive value (65%) are both higher than D-D (65% vs 44%)(71% vs 62%)(χ2=11.67,P=0.001);the sensitivity,the specificity,the positive predictive value and the negative predictive value of FM combined Wells score are increased (90%,85%,83%,89%)(χ2=20.95,χ2=16.65,P<0.01).The increased level of FM is earlier than imaging changes, and the elevated of plasma D-D is not obvious in a certain period of time.Conclusions The sensitivity and specificity of FM combined with Wells′ score is higher in the diagnosis of VTE, its prediction value in the diagnosis of VTE is higher.The FM level can be changed in the early stage of VTE, which has a certain value of early diagnosis.
