Objective This study was to explore the expression and significance of HMA2 in bladder cancer , analyze its correlations to clinicopathologic and recurrence of bladder cancer. Methods The expression of HMGA2 protein in 148 specimens of bladder cancer and 30 specimens of normal bladder tissues was detected by immunohistochemtry, its correlations to clinicopathologic features was analyzed. Results There was no expression of HMGA2 protein in normal bladder tissues,while the expression level of HMGA2 protein was getting higher with the increase of tumor pathology grade and stage. The positive rate of HMGA2 protein was 21.3% in G1 bladder cancer, 60. 3% in G2 bladder cancer, 82.1% in G3 bladder cancer, its difference is significant (P<0. 001). It was significantly lower in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer than in muscle invasive bladder cancer (43.3% vs 72. 7%, P=0. 003). The patients were followed up for 2~95 months, patients of recurrence was 64,HMGA2 protein expression was significantly higher in patients with recurrence than with non-recurrence (54.7% vs 25.0%, P=0. 007). Conclusions The expression of HMGA2 protein was highly in bladder cancer, the positive rate of HMGA2 protein expression was related with classification,TMN stage and recurrence, but not with sex, age, tumor number (P>0. 05). The detection of the expression of HMGA2 protein is in favor of diagnosis and prognostic evaluation of bladder cancer.

Overexpression of CCND1 and t (11;14) (q13;q32) chromosomal translocation are important markers in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). However, part of MCL lacks the expression of CCND1. SOX11 can be used as a biomarker for its overexpression in CCND1-negative MCL. SOX11 is a neurogenic transcription factor, and its overexpression is closely related to histone modification and DNA methylation. Differential expression of SOX11 in MCL is closely related with the plasma cell differentiation, and there is a relationship between the prognosis and survival time of MCL. SOX11 cDNA is more sensitive than conventional methods for the detection of minimal residual disease (MRD). With further research of SOX11, it will become an important basis of diagnosis and prognosis in MCL, and can provide a new method for targeted therapy of MCL.

Objective To analyze the outcome and prognosis-related factors of MA (mitoxantrone+cytarabine) regimen for acute myeloid leukemia(AML). Methods 102 untreated AML patients were treated with MA. All patients were divided into two groups according to age, blood white cell count(WBC), FrenchAmerican-British (FAB) morphology, level of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and immunophynotype respectively.Analyze the prognosis-related factors. Results The complete remission (CR), partial remission (PR), nonresponse (NR) rate, and remission rate (CR+PR) of all the 102 cases were 63.73 % (65/102), 17.65 % (18/102), 18.62 % (419/102)and 81.38 % (83/102) respectively. The patients younger than 60 years old, WBC<100×109/L, LDH≤600 U/L, FAB-M2 morphology group had higher CR and remission rate. The CR rate of patients with CD7 positive had statistical difference from that of patients with CD7 negative (P <0.05), but the remission rate not. However, the CR and remission rate of patients with CD19 positive had no statistical difference from that of patients with CD19 negative (P >0.05). Conclusion These results suggest that use of MA regimen was effective and safe for AML. Age, WBC, FAB morphology, level of LDH and CD7 expression are prognosis-related factors for clinical outcome.

Objective To explore the expression of CXCR7 in bladder cancer and analyze its clinical significance and relationship with bladder cancer recurrence. Methods The expressions of CXCR7 protein in 148 specimens of bladder cancer and 30 specimens of normal bladder tissues were detected by immunohistochemical staining and its clinical significance was then analyzed. Results The expression of CXCR7 protein was higher in bladder cancers than in the adjacent normal tissues (P<0.01). CXCR7 protein expression rates were 49. 4% and 71.2% in mutifocal tumors and unifocal tumors, while 34.0%, 65.8% and 78. 6% in G1, G2, and G3 tumors, respectively (P<0. 01). Expression of CXCR7 protein was higher in muscle invasive bladder cancers than in non-muscle invasive bladder cancers (72. 7% versus 51.9% ,P<0.05). In patients followed up for 2-95 months, CXCR7 protein expression was significantly higher in patients with recurrence than with non-recurrence (64. 1% versus 32.5%, P<0.01). Kaplan-Meier analysis and the log-rark test showed that the recurrence-free survival was significantly different between the group of lower CXCR7 expression group and the higher expression group (P<0.01). Conclusions The expression of CXCR7 protein is high in bladder cancer and the analysis of CXCR7 protein expression is potentially valuable in prognostic evaluation of bladder cancers. CXCR7 may play a role in the development of bladder urothelial cell cancer.

Drugs sharing similar therapeutic function may not bind to the same group of targets. However, their targets may be involved in similar pathway profiles which are associated with certain pathological process. In this study, pathway fingerprint was introduced to indicate the profile of significant pathways being influenced by the targets of drugs. Then drug-drug network was further constructed based on significant similarity of pathway fingerprints. In this way, the functions of a drug may be hinted by the enriched therapeutic functions of its neighboring drugs. In the test of 911 FDA approved drugs with more than one known target, 471 drugs could be connected into networks. 760 significant associations of drug-therapeutic function were generated, among which around 60% of them were supported by scientific literatures or ATC codes of drug functional classification. Therefore, pathway fingerprints may be useful to further study on the potential function of known drugs, or the unknown function of new drugs.

Objective To evaluate the effect of ditching for drain on the control of the breed of Oncomelania hupensis snails in beaches of Dongting Lake. Methods From November,2009 to November,2012,an O. hupensis snail infested beach of the Yueyang jail and an O. hupensis snail infested beach of Junshan District were selected as research fields in the eastern Dongting Lake area,and the former,as the intervention field,was performed with the ditching for drain by excavators and the latter,as the control field,was not. Results Before the project implemented,the average soil moisture contents on the beaches in dry seasons of the two fields were both about 35.56%. After the project implemented,in the intervention field,the average soil mois?ture content was 26.53%which was significantly lower than that(35.56%)in the control field(F=6.53,P<0.05). The under?ground water levels in different heights in the intervention field were lower than those in the control field (χ2 = 33.33,P <0.05). Before the project implemented,the natural death rates of the snails were 0.98%and 0.89%in the two research fields re?spectively(P>0.05),and after the project implemented(in 2012),no adult and young snails were found in the interventional field,but in the control field,the average densities of living snails and young snails were 29.37 snails/0.1 m2 and 213±108.45 snails/0.1 m2 respectively. Conclusion The intervention of ditching for drain can decrease the soil moisture contents quickly and change the ecological condition,therefore,can control the breed of O. hupensis snails in the beaches of Dongting Lake.

Objective:
To investigate the efficacy and feasibility of laparoscopic resection for gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) in unfavorable location by comparing with open surgery.
Methods:
Clinicopathological and follow-up data of 176 patients with gastric GIST in unfavorable location admitted at Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from January 2005 to December 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 94 males and 82 females, aging of (57.4±12.7) years (range: 20-90 years). Of the 176 patients, 64 underwent laparoscopic surgery (laparoscopic group) and 112 underwent open surgery (open group). One-to-one propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to balance the covariance between laparoscopic group and open surgery group. Before PSM, the differences between the two group in tumor size and modified National Institutes of Health risk classification were significant. After PSM, there were 63 pairs (63 cases in laparoscopic group and 63 cases in open group) and the baseline characteristics were comparable between the two groups(
