Objective To analyze the treatment effects on the central bronchogenic carcinoma by means of interventional chemotherapy and embolization. Methods There were 60 pathologically proved cases of central bronchogenic carcinoma in mid or late period. After detecting the nourishing arteries of bronchogenic carcinoma with angiography, anticancer drugs were poured into the nourishing arteries. Then silk thread and gelform were used to embolize these arteries. Results The total effective rate of the treatment was 100% and the obvious effective rate was 80%. 33 cases were operated and chemotherapy performed after operation. 27 cases were given synthetic treatment. No one died in the follow up of 18-34 months. Conclusion Interventional chemotherapy and embolization is an effective and safe method in the treatment of central bronchogenic carcinoma. If synthetic treatment is taken, the treatment effect would be much better.

Objective To study the effects of sensitized dendritic cells in the treatment of bladder tumor and further discuss the mechanism of this immunotherapy. Methods 44 female F344 rats, which irrigated N-methyl-N-nitrosourea into bladders every other week for a total of five doses, were induced to bladder tumor. They were treated subcutaneously with either PBS, unsensitized DC, freeze thawing supernatant of tumor cells, or sensitized DC respectively every week for a total of four times. In the fifteenth week, their bladders were weighted and harvested for observation by naked eye and microscope, their blood was harvested for examination CTL by FCM. Results The weight of bladders in sensitized DC group was lower than those in PBS group, unsensitized DC group and freeze thawing supernatant of bladder tumor cells group (P<0.05). The stages of bladder tumor in sensitized DC group were statistically descended compared with those in PBS group (P <0.05). The CD+3 T cells in sensitized DC group was lower than those in PBS group, unsensitized DC group and freeze thawing supernatant of bladder tumor cells group (P <0.05). The CD+3 CD+8 CD+28 T cells in sensitized DC group was higher than those in PBS group, unsensitized DC group and freeze thawing supematant of bladder tumor cells group(P <0.001). Conclusion Sensitized DC injecting subcutaneously can reduce the stages of F344 rats' bladder tumor, Unsensitized DC injecting subcutaneously has not effect in the treatment of bladder tumor;, while the effect of freeze thawing supematant of tumor cells injecting subcutaneously is not well. The mechanism of sensitized DC in the treatment of blader tumor is that DC plays an immunol killing role by presenting antigen, stimulating CTL.

Objective To investigate the expression of TLR2 in colon mucosa of ulcerative colitis (UC) and to analyze the correlation with clinical activity and endoscopic grading. Methods The biopsies from 47 UC patients and 13 healthy controls were collected, and the expression of TLR2 protein and mRNA in colonic mucosa was determined by Western Blot and semi-quantitative RT-PCR, respectively. The patients were graded according to endoscopic and clinical findings. Results The expressions of TLR2 protein and TLR2 mRNA in UC patients were significantly increased than those in healthy controls, which was correlated with the progression of the disease. Conclusion The expressions of TLR2 protein and TLR2 mRNA in colon mucosa from UC patients might be used as a marker for disease activity.

Objective To investigate the expression of TLR4 mRNA and NF-κB p65 in colorectal carcinomas and adjacent normal colon tissue, and evaluate their roles in the pathogenesis and development in colorectal carcinoma. Methods Sixty-three colorectal carcinoma samples and respective adjacent normal colon tissue samples ( well differentiated : 23 cases; moderately differentiated: 17 cases; poorly differentiated:20 cases; other differentiated type: 3 cases; lymph node metastasis: 27 cases; no lymph node metastasis:36 cases; Dukes A: 18cases;Dukes B: 14 cases Dukes C: 22 cases; Dukes D: 9 cases) were collected. The expression of TLR4 mRNA in colorectal carcinomas and adjacent tissue were detected by RT-PCR. The expression of NF-κB p65 was detected by WB. Results The expression of TLR4 mRNA in colorectal carcinomas and adjacent tissue were 86.42 ± 15.16 and 32.74 ± 9.44. It was significantly higher in carcinoma tissue than that in adjacent tissue ( t = 22.354, P ＜ 0.01 ). The expression of TLR4 mRNA in well, moderately and poorly differentiated coiorectal carcinomas were 69.58 ± 11.27, 64.57 ± 13.91 and 97.12 ± 15.44 respectively. TLR4 mRNA in poorly differentiated colorectal carcinomas was significantly higher than that in well, moderately differentiated ones ( t = 11.304 and 12.223, P ＜ 0.01 ). There was no difference between lymph node metastatic carcinomas ( 89.91 ± 13.33 ) and carcinomas without metastasis (81.16±13.59,t =0.959,P＞0.05). The expression of TLR4 mRNA in the Dukes A stage tumors (59.05±11.66) was lower than that in Dukes B(90.34 ±0.08),C(91.41 ± 15.21), D(101.46 ±17.43), respectively ( t = 8.708,9.664,9.525, P ＜ 0.05 ). The expression of NF-κB p65 in colorectal carcinoma(0.63 ±0.11) was significant higher than that in adjacent tissue(0.34 ±0.08,t = 18.266,P ＜0.01 ). The expression of NF-κB p65 in well, moderately and poorly differentiated colorectal carcinomas were 0.46 ± 0.09, 0.72 ± 0.11 and 0.77 ± 0.14, respectively. The experssion of NF-κB p65 in well differentiated colorectal carcinomas was obviously lower than the woderately and poorly differentiated carcinomas (t = 11.223 and 10.875, P ＜0.01 ). There was significant difference between the expression of p65 in lymph node metastatic carcinomas(0.82 ± 0.17) and non-metastatic carcinomas(0.57 ± 0.12, t =18.269,P＜0.05). The expression of NF-κB p65 in Dukes A colorectal carcinomas (0.39 ± 0.06) was lower compared with the Dukes B(0.72 ±0.12), C(0.69 ±0.14) and D carcinomas(0.76 ±0.13,t =10.442, 9.889 and 9.721, P ＜ 0.01 ). Conclusions The enhanced expression of TLR4/NF-κB p65 are closely associate with clinical stage and pathologic grade. NF-κB p65 may be an molecular marker of lymph node metastatic. The increased expression of TLR4/NF-κB p65 promote the pathogenesis and development of colorectal carcinoma.

Objective To explore the radical surgery for tetralogy of Fallot combined with right pulmonary artery stenosis.Methods Thirteen cases with tetralogy of Fallot combined with right pulmonary artery stenosis accepted radical surgery,among them 7 cases who-had a long right pulmonary artery stenosis accepted aortic transaction for radical surgery of tetralogy of Fallot;5 cases who had the entrance stenosis of the right pulmonary artery accepted right pulmonary artery patch expansion for radical surgery of tetralogy of Fallot;One case who had the distortion and stenosis after pulmonary shunt accepted the radical surgery for tetralogy of Fallot after seperation and expansion.Results There were no operation-related deaths,post-operative low cardic output and perfusion lung occurred for all the cases.Ten cases had grade 1 cardiac function and 3 cases had grade 2,respectively.Conclusion Right pulmonary artery stenosis increased the risks during the radical surgery for tetralogy of Fallot,but it is still the primary operation choice.

Objective To compare of clinical effect between radiotherapy and chemoradiotherapy and investigate the prognostic factors in elderly patients with esophageal squamous cell cancer.Methods 229 elderly patients with esophageal squamous cell cancer who received radiotherapy and chemoradiotherapy from January 2009 to December 2013 were retrospective analyzed.The Local control rate and survival rate were calculated by Kaplan-Meier method,and the short effect and long term effect between radiotherapy and chemoradiotherapy were compared.Cox regression model was used for invariant analysis and multivariate analysis.Results The follow up time was 15.3months.The short effect of radiotherapy group was not better than that of chemoradiotherapy group,with CR 35.6％ vs 45.8％,RR 61.0％ vs 53.0％,SD 2.7％ vs 0 and PD 0.7％ vs 1.2％ (P=0.211).The 1-,2-,3-year local control rates of radiotherapy group were significantly poorer than that of chemoradiotherapy group,with 82.8 ％,60.5 ％ and 52.7％ vs 89.5％,85.4％ vs 80.9％,respectively (P=0.009).However,there were no significance difference between the 1-,2-,3-year survival rates of radiotherapy group and chemoradiotherapy group,with 66.4％,29.5％,17.1％ vs.65.9％,40.3 ％,30.8 ％,respectively (P =0.071).In invariant analysis,T stage,N stage,clinical stage and radiotherapy dose (＜ 60 Gy,60 ～66 Gy,＞66 Gy) were related with the prognosis of esophageal carcinoma.The COX regression model showed that T stage,N stage and radiotherapy dose were independent prognostic factors that effected survival rate.Conclusion In elderly patients with esophageal squamous cell cancer,chemoradiotherapy can improve the local control rates,but not benefit the survival rate.T stage,N stage and radiotherapy dose were independent prognostic factors that effected survival rate,which could provided evidence for prognosis judgement and clinical practice.

Objective To evaluate the renal toxicity of vancomycin hydrochloride and irbesartan tablets using the zebrafish model. Methods After construction of AB zebrafish kidney model, the fish were treated with drug after fertilization 2 days (2 dpf) to 5 dpf. At the end of the experiment, the number of renal edema zebrafish was counted in each experimental group to evaluate the renal toxicity of drugs. Results The zebrafish development was normal and no obvious toxicity at the dose of 16?4 ng/fish (1/10 MNLD) for vancomycin, and zebrafish renal edema occurred rate was 3?3%, 10% and 10% respectively at the dose of 54?7 ng/fish (1/3 MNLD), 164 ng/fish (MNLD) and 273 ng/fish ( LD10 ) with the death rate of 0%, 0% and 16?7%, respectively, which indicated that there was significant renal toxicity of vancomycin at the dose of 54?7 ng/fish (1/3MNLD) to 273 ng/fish (LD10). Irbesartan didn’t induce renal toxicity at the dose of 8?3 μg/mL (1/10 MNLC) to 91 μg/mL (LC10). Conclusions The zebrafish model of renal toxicity can be used for the early evaluation of drug renal toxicity and we made evaluation of the renal toxicity of vancomycin and irbesartan with this model.

Objective To improve the non?surgical N staging system for esophageal carcinoma ( EC) . Methods A retrospective analysis was performed in 501 patients newly diagnosed with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who received radiotherapy in our hospital from 2009 to 2013. The impacts of the supraclavicular lymph nodes and mediastinal lymph nodes on the overall survival ( OS) rate were analyzed. The original non?surgical N staging system was improved and the proposed N staging system was evaluated. The OS rates were calculated using the Kaplan?Meier method and analyzed using the log?rank test. The univariate and multivariate analyses were performed using the log?rank test and Cox regression model, respectively. Results The 3?and 5?year sample sizes were 404 and 205, respectively. In all patients, the 1?, 3?, and 5?year OS rates were 64?9%, 26?5%, and 18?3%, respectively;the 1?, 3?, and 5?year distant metastasis?free ( DMF) rates were 86?2%, 68?9%, and 67?3%, respectively;the 1?, 3?, and 5?year local control rates were 72?7%, 53?1%, and 43?6%, respectively. The univariate analysis showed that the incidence, 3?year OS rate, and 3?year DMF rate of supraclavicular lymph node metastases in patients with cervical and upper?thoracic EC were significantly higher than those in patients with middle?thoracic and lower?thoracic EC ( 25?7% vs. 14?2%, P=0?034;24?2% vs. 11?5%, P=0?016;84?8% vs. 69?2%, P=0?007) . The multivariate analysis also showed that the number of metastatic lymph nodes was an independent prognostic factor for the OS and DMF rates in patients ( P= 0?000;P= 0?007 ) . Conclusions It is reasonable to classify upper?thoracic EC with supraclavicular lymph node metastasis into stage N1 diseases. The proposed N staging system with the factor of the number of metastatic lymph nodes is more scientific and objective than the original N staging system.

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common and potentially life-threatening pancreatic inflammatory disease. Although it is usually self-limiting, up to 20% of patients will develop into severe AP. It may lead to systemic inflammatory response syndrome and multiple organ dysfunction, affecting the lungs, kidneys, liver, heart, etc. Surviving patients usually have sequelae of varying degrees, such as chronic hyperglycemia after AP (CHAP), pancreatic exocrine insufficiency, and chronic pancreatitis. Lacking specific target treatments is the main reason for high mortality and morbidity, which means that more research on the pathogenesis of AP is needed. Ferroptosis is a newly discovered regulated cell death (RCD), originally described in cancer cells, involving the accumulation of iron and the depletion of plasma membrane polyunsaturated fatty acids, and a caspase-independent RCD. It is closely related to neurological diseases, myocardial infarction, ischemia/reperfusion injury, cancer, etc. Research in the past years has also found the effects of ferroptosis in AP, pancreatic cancer, and AP complications, such as acute lung injury and acute kidney injury. This article reviews the research progress of ferroptosis and its association with the pathophysiological mechanisms of AP, trying to provide new insight into the pathogenesis and treatment of AP, facilitating the development of better-targeted drugs.
