OBJECTIVETo investigate the changes of CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3 + regulatory T cells in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and their association with insulin resistance in different stages of prostate cancer (PCa).
METHODSUsing flow cytometry, we counted the CD4+ CD25 + Foxp3 + regulatory T cells in the PBMCs of 62 PCa patients (5 cases of TNM stage I, 16 cases of stage II, 21 cases of stage III, and 20 cases of stage IV) and 42 normal healthy controls, and calculated their proportion in the CD4+ T-lymphocytes. We determined the levels of fast blood glucose (FBG) and fast insulin (FINS) for the insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR), obtained the serum IGF-1 level by ELISA, and analyzed the relationship of the count and proportion of CD4+ CD25+ Foxp3+ regulatory T cells with insulin resistance by comparison between the PCa patients and normal healthy controls.
RESULTSCompared with the control group, the PCa patients showed significantly increased HOMA-IR (3.68 ± 1.42 vs 6.68 ± 1.66), decreased level of serum IGF-1 ([164.56 ± 30.58] vs [96.39 ± 21.21] ng/ml), and elevated count ([1.99 ± 0.78 ] x 10(7) vs [3.55 ± 0.29] x 10(7)) and proportion ([5.33 ± 0.65] vs [13.88 ± 0.96]%) of CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3 regulatory T cells in the PBMCs. The TNM stage was correlated positively with the count and percentage of CD4 + CD25+ Foxp3 + regulatory T cells and HOMA-IR, but negatively with the level of serum IGF-1. Meanwhile, the count and percentage of CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3 + regulatory T cells were found to have a positive correlation with HOMA-IR (r = 0.722 and 0.689, P < 0.01) but a negative correlation with the level of serum IGF-1 (r = -0.747 and -0.896, P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONThe count and proportion of CD4+ CD25 + Foxp3 + regulatory T cells in the peripheral blood and insulin resistance increase with the elevated stage of PCa. CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3 + regulatory T cells may be involved in the occurrence and progression of PCa by regulating insulin resistance.

Objective To study the clinicopathoiogic features of four cases of extranodal follicular dendritic cell sarcoma(FDCS). Methods Four cases of FDCS were examined by histological and immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-encoded RNA, and the related literatures were reviewed. Results Microscopically, the neoplastic cells were spindle-shaped or ovoid with pale-stained cytoplasm, indistinct cell borders, granular chromatin, distinct small nucleoli. There were varied growth patterns in the tumour, such as fascicular, circular whorls and storiform, and abundant with intermixed small lymphocytes. There scattered multinucleated giant cells and perivascular cuffing phenomenon. There were rare mitoses. The neoplastic cells were positive for one or more of the follicular dendritic markers such as CD21, CD23 and CD35. It was variably positive for CD68, Vimentin, LCA and S-100. Staining for CD20, CD3 and CD1α were negative. Ki-67 labeling ranged from 10 %-20 %. The neoplastic cells were negative for Epstein-Barrvirus (EBV)-encoded RNA. Conclusion FDCS is a rare low-grade malignant tumor with varied growth pattern. The diagnosis should be confirmed by immunohistochemical staining. It is important to recognize its morphological characteristics to avoid confusion with other similar lesions, such as gastrointestinal stromal tumour, inflammatory pseudotumor, interdigitaing dendtritic cell sarcoma, malignant histiocytoma, lymphoepithelial carcinoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, and malignant melanoma.

Objective To analyze the effect of using standardized patient (SP) tutorial in the spe-cialized training of pancreatic surgery with WeChat platform. Methods 48 surgeons participating in resi-dent standardized training in Changhai Hospital (all for postgraduate education) were enrolled as teaching object. 48 surgeons were divided into two groups: SP group (n=24) receiving WeChat combined with SP tutorial which updates learning plan, learning contents, and clinical discussion by Wechat platform and performs practical teaching by SP method, control group (n=24) receiving traditional tutorial by using tradi-tional clinical teaching methods and video teaching followed by practical teaching. The theoretical exami-nation, questionnaires and expert assessment were used to evaluate the effect of the two teaching methods. Statistical analysis was performed using the SPSS 19.0. Continuous data were expressed as median±stan-dard deviation and compared using the Student's t-test. Categorical data were compared using the Pearson's chi-square test. Results The score of theoretical examination of the two groups showed no significant difference [(85.5±7.6) vs. (81.4±14.9), P=0.238]. The results of questionnaires and expert assessment in WeChat&SP group were significantly better than those in the control group (P<0.001) other than theoretical and analytical ability (P>0.05). Conclusion WeChat platform combined with standardized patient tutorial in the specialized training of pancreatic surgery is feasible and more effective than traditional tutorial to improve teaching effectiveness.
