Aim To investigate whether Rhizoma curcumaecould induce pregnane X receptor(PXR)-mediated transcriptional expression of CYP3A4 and study the modulatory effects on the enzyme activity and mRNA expression of CYP3A in the rat liver.Methods Transient cotransfection reporter gene assays were performed in HepG2 cells;the rat liver microsomal cytochrome P450 and CYP3A isoenzyme-erythromycin N-demethylase(ERD)activities were determined by UV chromatography;the mRNA expression level of CYP3A was detected by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Results In vitroinvestigation showed Rhizoma curcumaeand its four selected constituents could induce the CYP3A4 transcriptional expression by activating PXR.In vivoinvestigation showed the CYP450 content of liver microsomes and enzyme activity of CYP3A were markedly increased and induced by Rhizoma curcumaeextract;at the mRNA level, the expression of CYP3A1 and CYP3A2 gene were markedly induced by Rhizoma curcumaeextract.Conclusions Rhizoma curcumaeand its four selected constituents could induce the expression of the CYP3A4 gene transcriptional expression through activating PXR;Rhizoma curcumaeextract could increase and induce the enzyme activity and mRNA expression of CYP3A.

Objective:To analyze the expression of E-cadherin in the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) induced by transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) in neuroblastoma.Methods:TGF-β1(1 μg/L, 5 μg/L, 10 μg/L), was applied to SK-N-SH cells in vitro compared with the blank control group.EMT-related genes mRNA and protein expression were detected by carrying out real-time PCR assays and Western blot.A scratch test and migration assay were performed to verify the alteration of SK-N-SH cell migration capacity.Data collected from 18 cases of neuroblastoma patients were selected from the Department of Hematology Oncology, Shanghai Children′s Hospital from January 2008 to December 2012.The expression of E-cadherin in the tumor tissue of the neuroblastoma patients after operation was detected by immunohistochemistry.The clinical features and survival prognosis of these patients were analyzed. Results:Compared with the control group, after SK-N-SH cells were treated with TGF-β1(1 μg/L, 5 μg/L, 10 μg/L), real-time PCR assays and Western blot revealed that the mRNA(0.603±0.081, 0.606±0.008, 0.716±0.166 vs.1.000) and protein expression levels(0.855±0.026, 0.600±0.017, 0.495±0.011 vs.1.000) of E-cadherin were significantly decreased ( F=8.144, P=0.040; F=74.810, P<0.001), while the mRNA(2.132±0.167, 3.494±0.017, 4.184±0.021 vs.1.000) and protein expression levels (1.175±0.053, 1.189±0.058, 1.225±0.106 vs.1.000)of α - smooth muscle actin were significantly increased ( F=547.300, P<0.001; F=68.810, P=0.007), suggesting that EMT changes occur in cells.Scratch test and Transwell migration assay revealed that the number of migrating cells increased obvious with the treatment of TGF-β1 (5 μg/L) ( t=16.070, P=0.040). The 10-year overall survival(OS) rates of neuroblastoma patients with E-cadherin strong positive expression, positive expression, weak positive expression and negative expression in the pathology were (77.78±13.86)%, (75.00±21.66)%, (25.00±21.65)% and 0, respectively ( F=8.160, P=0.040). Conclusions:TGF-β1 can induce the EMT in SK-N-SH cells and increase cell migration.The decrease expression of E-cadherin in neuroblastoma patients is closely associated with clinical progress and recurrence or metastasis of the disease.

Objective To analyze the clinical data of children with Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH),to discuss the therapeutic effect,and to analyze the factors related to prognosis.Methods A total of 45 children diagnosed as LCH were divided into group A (18 cases with bone lesion only),group B(6 cases with soft tissue lesion),and group C (21 cases with viscera lesion) according to Shanghai Children's Hospital-LCH-2007 scheme [SCH-LCH-2007 (modified DAL-HX83/90) scheme].(1) Initial treatment:group A was treated with Prednisone (Pred) + Vincristine (VCR) for 28 weeks,and group B was treated with Pred + VCR + Etoposide (VP16) + Mercaptopurine (6MP) for 43 weeks,and group C was treated with Pred + VCR + VP16 + Methotrexate (MTX) +6MP for 52 weeks.(2) Re-treatment scheme after relapse included:①upgrading treatment,group A to group B,group B to group C.②Individual treatment for group C included VP16 modification,and maintained Thymosin and/or Ciclosporin etc.Results The total survival rate was 93.3％ (42/45 cases) and recurrence rate was 26.7％ (12/45 cases).Children in group A and B were all effective,while 2 patients in group C died,and 1 case missed follow-up.Multi-factor analysis showed that the factors like age,sex,group,skeleton,soft tissue,erythra,lymph gland,lung,mouth,ears,hypophysis pituitary had no statistical significance,but liver,spleen and blood involvement had statistical significance in disease relapse:liver (P=0.007 1),spleen (P=0.016 9),and blood (P=0.011 1).Conclusion LCH can affect several organs of children and relapse,and modified DAL-HX83/90 scheme is very effective.The liver,spleen and hematopoiesis system involvement is correlates with the relapse.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of different treatment regimens for children with acute promye-locytic leukemia (APL)with positive PML -RARa fusion gene.Methods Thirty -two newly diagnosed APL patients were included in this study,treated either with all -trans -retinoic acid (ATRA)and chemotherapy (CT)(group A) or with ATRA and arsenic trioxide (ATO)(group B).Clinical situation and clinical efficacy were analyzed in patients in different groups.They were also separated into low risk group,intermediate risk group and high risk group according to different risk criteria.Clinical characteristics,complete remission,long -time survival and urine arsenic concentra-tion were analyzed and compared.Results (1 )Fourteen of 1 5 patients (93.3%)in group A achieved hematological complete remission (HCR)with a median time of 38 days (28 -63 days).Sixteen of 1 7 patients (94.1 %)in group B achieved HCR with a median time of 29 days (1 0 -42 days),which was significantly shorter than group A,and there was a significant difference between 2 groups(t =3.53,P =0.002).(2)The 5 -year event -free survival (EFS)of group A and group B was (60.0 ±1 2.6)% and (81 .9 ±9.5)%,respectively;the 5 -year EFS of group B was almost 20% higher than group A;while there was no significant difference between the 2 groups(χ2 =1 .1 5,P =0.28).The 5 -year overall survival (OS)of group A and group B was (72.2 ±1 1 .9)% and (94.1 ±5.7)%,respectively,the 5 -year OS of group B was almost 20% higher than group A;while there was no significant difference between the 2 groups(χ2 =2.88,P =0.1 6).(3)The 5 -year EFS of low plus intermediate group and high risk group patients was (74.0 ±1 0.1 )% and (64.8 ±1 4.3)%,the 5 -year EFS of low plus intermediate group was almost 1 0% higher than high risk group,but there was no significant difference between the 2 groups(χ2 =0.1 4,P =0.71 ).The 5 -year OS of low plus intermediate group and high risk group patients was (84.7 ±8.1 )% and (71 .3 ±1 4.1 )%,the 5 -year OS of low plus intermediate group was almost 1 0% higher than high risk group,while there was no significant difference be-tween the 2 groups(χ2 =0.36,P =0.55).(4)ATO related side effects were mild,including abnormal liver tests and e-lectrocardiogram,but were invertible after supportive therapy.At the end of each chemotherapy course,the urine arsenic concentration remained low and no chronic arsenic toxicity or second malignancies were found during the follow -up period.Conclusions The ATRA plus ATO regimen is a promising and better treatment for childhood APL with positive PML -RARa fusion gene compared with conventional chemotherapy.It was necessary to take risk stratification in APL patients.

Objective? To understand the status quo of humanistic care quality of psychiatric nurses in Beijing and its influencing factors. Methods? From May to August 2018, This study selected all the psychiatric hospitals in Beijing and stratified by the tertiary, secondary and first-level psychiatric hospitals. Through random number sampling, 2 to 3 hospitals were selected from each group to conduct cluster surveys. To analyze the humanistic care quality of psychiatric nurses and its influencing factors, 890 psychiatric nurses were surveyed using general information questionnaire, Nursing Caring Characters Assessment Tool (NCCAT), Perceived Organizational Support Scale (POS) and Nurses Professional Values Scale-Revised (NPVS-R). 861 valid surveys were returned with the response rate of 96.74%. SPSS 18.0 was used for data input and statistical analysis. Results? In 861 psychiatric nurses, NCCAT score was 86.36% (125.22±19.79); POS total score was 72.16% (45.46±10.87); NPVS-R score was 81.73% (106.25±21.31). Univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in the scores of nurses of different levels of hospitals, education backgrounds, professional titles, job satisfaction, parental support, voluntariness, family support, and humanistic training (P＜0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the dimensions of humanistic care of psychiatric nurses were positively correlated with organizational support (r=0.593,P＜0.01), and professional values (r=0.712,P＜0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that hospital level, education, voluntariness, humanistic training, organizational support and professional values were the influencing factors of psychiatric nurses' humanistic care quality (P＜ 0.01). Conclusions? The quality of humanistic care of psychiatric nurses in Beijing is at a high level. Through humanistic training, strengthening on-the-job education, increasing organizational support, and improving professional values can improve the quality of psychiatric nurses' humanistic care.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and prognostic factors for M4/M5subtypes in chil-dren with acute myeloid leukemia(AML).Methods A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of M4/M5subtypes in Shanghai Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University,from January 2009 to December 2014 was carried out.The long-term efficacy,prognosis and relapse factors were analyzed.Results The clinical data of 46 ca-ses were collected,among which 38 cases were treated with more than 2 courses,including 22 male,16 female,19 cases M4and 19 cases M5.The median age was 5 years.5-year overall survival(OS)rate and 5-year event-free survival (EFS)rate were(57.7 ± 9.3)% and(47.2 ± 8.9)%,and 5-year EFS of M4and M5were(52.4 ± 12.7)% and (45.4 ± 11. 9)%. Compared with the international risk stratification:5-year EFS rate of favorable-risk, intermediate-risk and poor-risk were(77.2 ± 12.4)%,(49.5 ± 14.9)% and(25.0 ± 19.8)%(χ2=6.305,P=0.043).Single factor analysis showed that extramedullary infiltration(χ2=4.828,P=0.028),Chromosome karyotype (χ2=10.178,P=0.017),the eighth day assessment(χ2=5.382,P=0.020)and course of treatment(χ2=4.771, P=0.029)were prognostic factors;multivariate analysis showed extramedullary infiltration(HR =5.323,95%CI:1.620-17.490,P=0.006)and less-than-6 courses of treatment(HR=6.186,95%CI:1.726-22.176,P=0.005)were the independent risk factors of affecting survival.Conclusions (1)Strengthening treatment and ade-quate courses of treatment are the critical to improve the overall curative effect in children with M4/M5subtypes.(2) Extramedullary infiltration was the risk factor for survival and recurrence in M4/M5subtypes.(3)It is suggested that the children who have the initial symptoms and molecular biology with poor prognostic factors choose hematopoietic stem cell transplantation as early as possible.

Objective: To analyze the clinical characteristics and long-term outcomes with multicenter study for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in children over 10 years old and adolescents. Method: Newly diagnosed ALL patients aged from 10 to 18 years old in three hospitals were included in the study from May 1^st 2005 to April 30^th 2015. They were received ALL-2005/2009 protocol following up to December 31^st 2016. The clinical characteristics, outcomes and the prognostic analysis were evaluated between the two protocols. Results: Totally, 237 patients were involved in the study, 76 cases for ALL-2005 and 161 cases for ALL-2009 protocol. Complete remission (CR) after induction therapy was 94.5%. 64 (28.6%) patients relapsed with a median time of 14.5 months and 70 (29.5%) patients passed away during the following time. In long-term follow-up, the 5-year event-free survival (EFS) and 5-year overall survival (OS) of ALL patients were (63.1±3.3)% and (68.4±3.2)%. The 7-year EFS and OS were (61.0±3.5)% and (67.6±3.3)%.The 5-year EFS of intermediate risk group in ALL-2005 and ALL-2009 protocol were (73.6±6.1)% and (71.7±4.3)% with no difference (χ²=0.064, P=0.801). The 5-year EFS of high risk group in two protocols were (27.6±9.6)% and (33.9±9.3)%, showing no significant difference (χ²=0.296, P=0.586). Five years relapsed rate of two protocols were (33.8±5.7)% and (32.6±4.1)% with no difference (χ²=0.055, P=0.815). The mortalities were 36.8% and 29.8% separately (χ²=2.869, P=0.090). Univariate analysis indicated that age, male, risk, BCR/ABL translocation/t(9;22) and resistant to induction were risk prognostic factors in long-term survival (χ²=4.764, 4.796, 46.410, 9.560, 25.450; P=0.029, 0.029, <0.001, 0.049, <0.001). Cox multivariate analysis showed male, risk and resistant to induction were independent risk prognostic factors (RR=1.790, 2.727, 2.719; P=0.021, 0.000, 0.012). Conclusion Protocol ALL-2009 enhanced the chemotherapy intensity in intermediate risk group with no benefit of survival. BCR-ABL fusion or t(9;22) translocation was still the risk factor of prognosis. TKI inhibitor used in these patients could improve survival. EFS rate was increased a little and death rate was decreased in ALL-2009 protocol with no significant lower relapsed rate comparing with ALL-2005 protocol.
