OBJECTIVETo investigate endostatin gene therapy of rat corneal neovascularization induced by acid cauterization.

METHODSpBlast-hEndostatin and pBlast-Mcs were identified by digestion with Nhe Iand Sal I, by PCR reaction, by sequence, and then by alignment of PCR products with the gene Bank using NCBIBLAST software. They were then purified with QIAGEN Endofree plasmid maxi kit. Rat corneal neovascularization models were made with 75% AgNO(3) and 25% KNO(3) cauterization. The treatment method was subconjunctive injection of the pBlast-hEndostatin with the control of pBlast-Mcs.

RESULTSpBlast-hEndostatin was found to contain the human endostatin gene. The rat corneal neovascularization induced by acid cauterization was significantly suppressed after subconjunctive injection of the pBlast-hEndostatin with inhibition rates of 37%, 40.2%, and 42.8% respectively on the sixth, tenth, and fifteenth day. The inhibition rate for the density of corneal neovascularization was 40%. However, no inhibition effect on the length of the neovascularization and corneal inflammatory cells was observed. Corneal neovascularization areas were positively correlated with edema and corneal opacity.

CONCLUSIONSThe plasmid of pBlast-hEndostatin contained the human endostatin gene. The rat corneal neovascularization induced by acid cauterization can be partially inhibited by subconjunctive injection of the pBlast-hEndostatin mediated by liposomes. Endostatin produced by transfected fibroblast cells directly inhibits corneal neovascularization. This is not caused by inflammatory reaction inhibition.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the efficacy of laparoscopic surgery in the treatment of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) in different anatomical locations.

METHODSClinical data of 133 patients with primary gastric GIST undergoing laparoscopic resection at our department from January 2006 to December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. These patients were divided into favorable site group (F group, 90 cases), including gastric fundus, anterior wall and greater curvature of gastric body, and unfavorable site group (UF group, 43 cases),including gastroesophageal junction, posterior wall and lesser curvature of gastric body,antrum and pylorus, according to the 2014 version National Comprehensive Cancer Network Clinical Guidelines. Short-term and long-term efficacy between the two groups was compared.

RESULTSThere were no significant differences between the two groups in the general clinicopathological parameters (all P>0.05). The operation time of F group and UF group was (107.3±52.3) min and (119±53.4) min respectively (P=0.21). The blood loss in F group and UF group was (35.2±34.2) ml and (35.2±31.2) ml respectively (P=1.00). In addition, there were no significant differences in time to first fluid diet, time to first flatus, postoperative hospital stay and hospitalization expenses between the two groups(all P>0.05). In F group and UF group, morbidity of postoperative complication was 6.7%(6/90) and 4.7%(2/43) respectively (P=0.72), morbidity of category I(-II( complication was 4.4%(4/90) and 2.3%(1/43) respectively (P=0.66),and morbidity of category III(-IIII( complication was 2.2%(2/90) and 2.3% (1/43) respectively (P=1.00). Median follow-up time of all the cases was 36(1 to 84) months. The 5-year overall survival rates of F group and UF group were 93.8% and 95.2% respectively, and 5-year relapse-free survival rates were 81.1% and 89.4% respectively, without significant differences(both P>0.05).

CONCLUSIONLaparoscopic operation for gastric GIST in unfavorable sites can yield similar short- and long-term outcomes compared with those in favorable sites.

OBJECTIVETo explore the prognostic assessment value of preoperative blood platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in patients with gastric mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinoma (gMANEC) treated with radical surgery.

METHODSClinical and pathological data of 84 gMANEC patients who underwent radical resection from 2006 to 2016 in Department of Gastric Surgery, Fujian Medical University Union Hospital were analyzed retrospectively. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to determine the cutoff value of the PLR for predicting prognosis. The Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to identify prognostic factors of gMANEC.

RESULTSAll the patients underwent D2 lymph node dissection, including 26 cases of distal subtotal gastrectomy and 58 cases of total gastrectomy. The postoperative pathological TNM stage system(pTNM) demonstrated that the patients of stage I(, II(, and III( were 9(10.7%), 14(16.7%), and 61(72.6%) cases, respectively. The median follow-up time was 40(3 to 96) months. The recurrence rate was 41.7%(35/84). The median time to recurrence was 10 (1 to 40) months, and 82.9%(29/35) patients experienced recurrence within the first 2 years after operation. The median overall survival time was 27(3 to 39) month, and the median recurrence-free survival time was 21 (1 to 96) months. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival(OS) rates were 87.6%, 56.6%, and 47.4%, respectively, and the 1-, 3-, and 5-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) rates were 70.5%, 50.7%, and 44.9%, respectively. The best cutoff value of the PLR for predicting prognosis was 133 through ROC curve, which categorized all the patients into low PLR group (≤133) comprising 28 patients and high PLR group (>133) comprising 56 patients. The tumor recurrence rate was significantly higher in high PLR group (50.0%, 28/56) than that in low PLR group(25.0%, 7/28)(P=0.028). The live metastasis rate was significantly higher in high PLR group(35.7%, 20/56) than that in low PLR group(10.7%, 3/28)(P=0.015). Cox regression analysis showed that only pTNM stage (P=0.003) was independent prognostic factors of OS, while both pTNM stage (P=0.000) and blood PLR (P=0.015) were independent prognostic factors of RFS.

CONCLUSIONgMANEC patients with high preoperative PLR tend to present recurrence and metastasis, especially to present live metastasis, so they should be kept under surveillance more frequently after surgery.

OBJECTIVETo explore the feasibility and efficacy of laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy in patients with gastric neuroendocrine carcinoma (GNEC).

METHODSClinical data of 84 patients with GNEC undergoing laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy in Union Hospital from January 2006 to December 2012 were analyzed respectively. Among these patients, 44 cases underwent laparoscopic D2 gastrectomy (LAG group) and 40 cases underwent open gastrectomy (OG group). The short- and long-term outcomes, 3-year survival and recurrence-free survival were compared between two groups.

RESULTSThe LAG group and OG group did not differ significantly in terms of clinicopathologic characteristics. All the patients completed operations successfully and no patients in the LAG group ware converted to laparotomy. The operative time was similar (P>0.05). As compared to OG group, LAG group had less intra-operative blood loss [(85±21) ml vs. (192±89) ml, P=0.003], lower ratio of transfusion [2.3%(1/44) vs. 15.0%(6/40), P=0.048], shorter time to ambulation after surgery [(2.5±1.1) days vs. (3.5±1.1) days, P=0.001], faster postoperative gastrointestinal function recovery [(2.9±1.1) days vs. (5.1±1.0) days, P=0.001], shorter time to resume soft diet [(4.1±1.2) days vs. (5.7±1.3) days, P=0.001] and shorter postoperative hospital stay [(12.0±3.4) days vs. (15.0±5.5) days, P=0.002]. No significant difference was observed in average dissected lymph node number between LAG and OG group (35.0±16.4 vs. 31.6±12.1, P=0.204). Morbidity of postoperative complication of LAG group and OG group was 11.4%(5/44) and 17.5%(7/40) respectively (P=0.422). The overall 3-year survival rate was 54.0% for all the patients, while 3-year survival rate was 56.3% in LAG group and 51.4 % in OG group (P=0.478). In addition, there was no significant difference in recurrence-free survival between the two group (33.0 months vs. 31.5 months, P=0.703).

CONCLUSIONCompared with open gastrectomy, laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy has the advantages of faster recovery and less blood loss, and similar short-term and long-term outcomes in treatment of patients with GNEC, thus it is a safe and feasible treatment for GNEC.
