of Streptomyces regensis was isolated from soil to produce a novel antibiotic AGPM of a strong biological activity of antitumor The strain was irradiated by UV after treatment with LiCl to give a AGPM yield of 1 87?10 2 mg mL 1 , 2 2 times higher than that of the original strain The optimum UV irradiation time was 30～60 s and the best LiCl concentration was 0 05～0 09 mol/L The fermentation of AGPM was conducted in a 30 L stirred tank, the maximum yield of AGPM using the mutants reached 1 85?10 2 mg mL 1 , while that using the original strain was only 0 85?10 2 mg mL 1

A new strain of Streptomyces regensis was isolated from soil to produce a novel antibiotic AGPM possessing a strong antitumor activity In order to study on the metabolic path of the novel antibiotic AGPM, the protein patterns from the strain of Streptomyces regensis at different culture period were analyzed by using two eimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis Comparing with sample from growth phase, seventeen new protein spots were found in that from antibiotic production phase The results demonstrated that the special proteins might be related with the antibiotic AGPM biosynthesis from Streptomyces regensis

Objective To compare the efficacy and side effects between systemic chemotherapy and hepatic arterial infusion by combination of oxaliplatin and 5-fluorouracil (FOLFOX-6) with 5-fluorouracil in the patients who have developed hepatic metastasis after colorectal cancer operation. The factors that would affect the prognosis without operational treatment were also analyzed. Methods 46patients who had signed the informed consents were allocated into two groups: the group with general chemotherapy (Trial Group includes 26 cases) and the one with hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (Control Group includes 20 cases). The total effective rate, the prognosis, the cytoxicitic side effects,quality of life, the total survival rate and the responses were the main parameters determined. Kaplan-Meier was used to analyze Mono-factor to the prognostic responses and the Cox mode was used to analyze poly-factor to the prognostic responses. Results The overall survival rate was significantly higher by using systemic treatment versus HAI(median, 15. 0 v 11.2 months;P＜0.05). The difference in overall responsive rate (CR+PR) between the two groups was statistically significant (50% v 10%;P=0. 011). No significant difference was found in PS scale during the treatment. (P=0. 126). Except for myelosuppression and abdominal pain, no significant difference was found in the other side effects. Univariate analysis revealed that the invasive lesions to serosa, the distribution of liver metastases, the size and number of liver metastases, primary carcinoma involving lymph nodes and the treatment were correlated with prognoses. Cox regression analysis showed that the larger diameter of liver metastases, the number of liver lesions, primary carcinomas involved in serosal layer and the treatment modules were independent prognostic factors. Conclusions The oxaliplatin-based FOLFOX-6 chemotherapy regiment has a better responsive rate and survival rate than the traditional infusion with 5-fluorouracil to the main hepatic artery for interventional therapy. The diameter of the hepatic metastasis larger than 5em, multiple hepatic metastasis and the primary lesions penetrating serosal layer suggest the poor prognosis. The oxaliplatin-based systematic chemotherapy has a better prognosis. Therefore,it is worth carrying on further study on modification of traditional hepatic arterial infusion and on evaluation of therapy by combination of the hepatic arterial infusion with the systematic chemotherapy.

Objective To explore the diagnosis rate.pathology types and positive rate of cancer cell in spu-tum of early central pulmonary carcinoma in three obstructive signs on chest X ray screened by fiberbromchoscope.Methods 326 cases of three obstructive signs with high risk of lung cancer were screened for central pulmonarycarcinoma by spiral CT.biopsy by fiberbronchoscope and cytological examination of sputum.Results 32 patients were diagnosed with central pulmonary carcinoma,with morbidity of 9.8%.In these patients,21 were confirmed with obstructive pneumonia(65.6%),7 with obstructive atelectasis(21.9%),4 with obstructive emphysema(12.5%);In terms of pathology type,16 cases were defined as squamous cell carcinoma(50.0%),9 as small cell carcinoma(28.1%).3 were as large cell carcinoma(9.4%).2 were as adenocarcinoma(6.3%),1 as admosquamous carci-noma(3.1%),1 as bronchial gland carcinoma(3.1%);cancer cell could be found in sputum of 5 patients of 32 cases,among them,it was found in 3 of 21 patients with obstructive pneumonia(14.3%),1 in 7 patients with ob-structive atelectasis(14.3%),1 in 4 patients with obstructive emphysema(25.0%).Conclusion The prevelance of early central pulmonary carcinoma in three obstructive signs on chest X-ray is 9.815%,in which squamous carci-noma and small-cell carcinoma are common in pathology type.Screening can increase the detection rate of early pul-monary carcinoma.

Objective To explore the clinical value of laparoscopic ventral rectopexy for rectal prolapse.Methods From Jan 2013 to Jan 2017,26 patients with complete rectal prolapse were divided into control group (15 patients) undergoing laparoscopic rectal fixation,and 11 patients in study group were treated with rectal ventral fixation.Results There was no significant difference in operation time,bleeding volume and exhaust time between the two groups (t =1.839,0.138,0.932,all P ＞ 0.05).In the study group,2 cases had temporarily postoperative fever.Following up for 12 to 36 months,1 case recurred in the control group and 1 case in the study group.The length of rectal prolapse was about 2 cm.Of the 7 patients with constipation in the control group,symptoms disappeared in 2 cases,symptoms improved in another 2 cases,and 5 cases had new constipation.Of the 4 patients with anal incontinence,2 cases had recovered and 1 case had symptoms improved.Among the 6 patients with constipation in the study group,symptoms disappeared in 3 cases,symptoms improved in 2 cases.Of the 3 patients with pelvic prolapse,2 cases recovered and 1 case improved.The pelvic prolapse and constipation in the study group was less severe than that in the control group (x2 =4.909,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Laparoscopic rectal ventral fixation for the treatment of complete rectal prolapse is less traumatic,safor and more effective.

Objective: To evaluate the prognostic value of lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) in angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma (AITL). Methods: Data of 64 patients diagnosed as AITL at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University between June 2009 and July 2017, were analyzed retrospectively. Receiver Operator Characteristic (ROC) curve was used to calculate the cutoff value of LMR to divide this cohort of patients into high and low LMR groups. Characteristics between groups were compared by Pearson Chi-square or Fisher exact tests. Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression were performed to probe prognostic factors associated with progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Results: A total of 64 cases [39 cases male and 25 ones female with the median age of 63 (29-89) years old] were enrolled. The cutoff value of LMR was 3.07. Patients with low LMR showed inferior PFS (9 months vs 13 months, P=0.044) and OS (16 months vs not reached, P=0.014), respectively than those without low LMR during a median follow-up of 33 months (5 to 103 months). Multivariate analysis showed that low LMR was an independent prognostic factor associated with poor outcomes (HR=0.48, 95% CI 0.26-0.92 for PFS, P=0.027; HR=0.38, 95% CI 0.18-0.82 for OS, P=0.013, respectively). Subgroup analysis showed that patients with low LMR and under the situation of high score of Prognostic Index for peripheral T-cell lymphoma, Unspecified (PIT) (2-4) had shorter PFS and OS (P=0.013 and P=0.031, respectively). But in low score of PIT (0-1) group, low LMR seemed to play almost no effects on PFS and OS (P=0.949 and P=0.238, respectively). Conclusions The disease risk status of patients could be initially assessed according to PIT score and LMR level. Low LMR was demonstrated to be able to predict poor outcome in AITL.
