Objective:To comparatively observe the effects of 20(R)-ginsenoside Rg3 and PEG-PLGA-Rg3 nanoparticles on the Lewis lung cancer mice and to explore the mechanisms of Rg3 and PEG-PLGA-Rg3 nanoparticle anti-cancer in vivo.Methods:Lewis lung cancer mouse model was established and 60 mice were randomly divided into 5 groups with twelve in each group:PEG-PLGA-Rg3 nanoparticles group (Rg3-N),PEG-PLGA group (PEG),Rg3 group (Rg3 ),normal control group (C),saline control group(NS),and received intragastric administration for 1 4 days.The weights of the mice were measured every 2 days and the weight curves were obtained.At the same time,the color pattern,activity and men-tal status were observed.The mice were sacrificed when the administration was over,and the effects of 20 (R)-ginsenoside Rg3 and PEG-PLGA-Rg3 nanoparticles on tumor weight,and the tumor:weight ratios were analysed.In addition,the tumor microvessel density (MVD)was measured by immunohistochemi-cal staining with anti-CD31 antibody to compare the effects of Rg3 and PEG-PLGA-Rg3 nanoparticles on the tumor angiogenesis in vivo.Furthermore,the levels of such angiogenesis and proliferation factors as MMP-9,HIF-1 α,VEGF,Ki-67 were examined by RT-PCR,Western blot and immunohistochemistry to explore the internal molecular mechanisms of anti-tumor effects in vivo.Results:The trends of variation of the mice weights in NS group and PEG group were rising early but declining later.In contrast,the trends of the other three groups were rising early and became stable later.In comparison with NS group, the mice of Rg3 group and Rg3-N group had better general status:brighter color,more active and better spirit.Compared with NS group,the tumor weight in PEG group,Rg3 group and Rg3-N group showed no significant difference but the tumor:weight ratio and MVD in Rg3 group and Rg3-N group declined signi-ficantly (P <0.01 ).Besides,there was no significant difference between Rg3 group and Rg3-N group. At the same time,the level of VEGF mRNA,the protein expression of MMP-9,HIF-1 α,VEGF in Rg3 group and Rg3-N group decreased compared with NS group.Furthermore,the level of each index above-mentioned in Rg3-N group was lower than that in Rg3 group.The expression of Ki-67 in PEG group,Rg3 group and Rg3-N group showed no significant difference compared with NS group.Conclusion:Rg3 and PEG-PLGA-Rg3 nanoparticle may suppress the expression of VEGF,MMP-9 and HIF-1 αin Lewis lung cancer mice,thereby indirectly contributing to their antitumor effects and alleviating the mice’s general status.In addition,PEG-PLGA nanoparticles embedding can promote Rg3 antitumor effect in vivo.

We describe two cases in which a forceps imprintdeveloped in the AcrySof ReSTOR IOL optic whileinserting these IOLs into the cartridge with straightclamping forceps. In case 1 ,the AcrySof ReSTOR IOL wasexplanted and observed under scanning electronmicroscopy (SEM). The SEM showed that the stepdesign of ReSTOR Multifocal IOL was well maintained. Incase 2, visual acuity, contrast sensitivity and wavefrontmeasurements were performed and no specific changeswere found. Strong evidence does not exist that suggeststhe on-axis forceps imprint can significantly compromisevisual acuity.

Objective To explore surgical methods of removing polyacrylamide hydrogel (PAHG) and the right time of repairing the deformity of breast after removing PAHG.Methods We operated with endoscopy to remove PAHG through the lower mammary areolar incision.According to injection influence,we made the dicision whether to put the silicon gel prosthesis (hereafter referred to as prosthesis) simultaneously,and to fix the porsthesis,and to rebuild the imframammary fold of breast using biological repair membrane (hereafter referred to as membrane).Results In all 46 patients,39 patients' injection and their envelope were removed entirely.7 patients left part of the envelope because of its thin and wide characters.14 of them accepted prosthesis augmentation mammaplasty simultaneously and 5 of these accepted membrane repair.4 patients received prosthesis augmentation in stage Ⅱ.All patients' incision were primary healing.The incision scars were not obvious.1 patient with breast cancer suffered breast excision; 1 patient who received prosthesis and membrane simultaneously appeared prosthesis displacement after 3 months and fixed again.1 patient who received membrane appeared hydrops in residual cavity,and the membrane was removed finally.Conclusions This method with endoscopy through mammary areolae is necessary for cleaning PAHG entirely.We can use prosthesis to repair the deformity of breast after removing PAHG,and if necessary use membrane to fix the implant and rebuild the inframammary fold of the breast.
