Objective To study the feasibility of transumbilical single-incision laparoscopic surgery ( SILS) in the treatment of tubal pregnancy, as compared with conventional multi-port laparoscopic surgery. Methods Sixty-two patients diagnosed as tubal pregnancy undergoing laparoscopic surgery at this hospital between September 2013 and June 2014 were selected for investigation. There were 29 cases of transumbilical SILS ( SILS group) and 33 cases of conventional multi-port laparoscopic surgery ( MPLS group) . We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of all patients and analyzed the surgical outcomes, including operative time, blood loss, surgical complications and hospital stay. Results In both groups, all procedures were performed without failure.No conversion to open surgery or additional skin incision was needed.There were no differences between the SILS and MPLS groups in the operation time [(51.5 ±10.8) min vs.(47.3 ±9.4) min, t=1.637, P=0.107], the mean estimated blood loss [(15.5 ±10.5) ml vs.(18.4 ±12.2) ml, t=-0.996, P=0.323], the absolute decrease of hemoglobin from preoperative to postoperative [(14 ± 5) g/L vs.(13 ±4) g/L, t=0.874, P=0.386], the postoperative hospital stay [(3.5 ±0.9) d vs.(3.8 ±0.8) d, t=-1.390, P=0.170], and the incidence of postoperative fever (2 cases vs.3 cases, χ2 =0.000, P=1.000).Follow-up for 1-3 months ( mean, 1.8 months) in all the cases showed smooth recovery and no postoperative complications. Conclusion SILS is a feasible and safe approach in the treatment of tubal pregnancy.

AIM To investigate antitumor effects of curcumin (Cur) combining with adriamycin(ADM) on human tumor cell lines in vitro . METHODS The antitumor effects of the drugs on tumor cell lines in vitro were determined with MTT method. The Jin's formula was used to analyse the effect of drug combination. RESULTS In simultaneous adiministration Cur 2 04 ?mol?L -1 ～16 29 ?mol?L -1 combining with ADM 0 70 ?mol?L -1 ～5 52 ?mol?L -1 produced a simple addition or potentiation effect. In sequential adiministration the first adiministration of ADM followed by Cur resulted in an antagonistic effect, while the change of the order of adiministration produced an simple addition effect. CONCLUSION Simultaneous adiministration of Cur and ADM produces synergistic effect but sequential adimistration of the drugs only produce a unidirectional synergistic effect.

Corneal melting is an autoimmune related noninfectious corneal ulcer. The mechanism of corneal melting, major treatment, the basic fundamental of ultraviolet- A riboflavin induced CXL and the clinical researches status and experiment in CXL were summarized in the study.

Objective To construct recombinant lentivirus silence vector aiming at rictor gene in mTORC2 specific protein, and to investigate its regulation on mTORC2/SGK1 signal pathway and the effect on pulmonary alveolar epithelial sodium ion chan-nel,as well as the role in acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS)and acute lung injury.Methods The interfering vector plas-mid and empty vector plasmid of target gene rictor were constructed,which and the lentivirus packaging system were co-transfected to 293T cells.The viral supernatant was collected,centrifuged,concentrated and purified for obtaining recombinant lentivirus.The virus titer was detected and the virus was infected to A549 cells.Stable cell lines were screened.RT-PCR was used to confirm the silencing situation of target gene rictor.The expression situation of various signal indexes in this pathway was detected by PCR and Western blot.Results The recombinant lentivirus of silence gene rictor was successfully constructed and transfected to A549 cell for obtaining stable cell lines.Compared with blank and control groups,the mRNA levels of rictor,downstream SGK1 andα-,β-andγ-ENaC in the shRNA-rictor group were significantly decreased (P <0.05 ).Meanwhile,the protein levels of rictor,downstream SGK1,P-SGK andα-,β-andγ-ENaC in the shRNA-rictor group were significantly decreased compared with the other two groups(P<0.05).Conclusion Silence rictor gene has the obvious regulation effect on mTORC2/SGK1 signal pathway,meanwhile affects the expression of pulmonary alveolar epithelial cellular α-,β-and γ-ENaC at gene and protein level.It is speculated that mTORC2/SGK1 may be an important signal pathway for regulating the clearance capacity of pulmonary alveolar epithelial cells on pulmonary alveolar fluid and simultaneously affecting the pulmonary edema formation.

Garcinol, a benzenetriol compound extracted from Garcinia cambogia, has antitumor activity, however, its antitumor mechanism remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the role and mechanism of garcinol as a novel potential proteasome inhibitor. We applied the drug affinity responsive target stability (DARTS) method coupled to mass spectrometry to determine the binding protein of garcinol; the proteasome activity assay was used to determine the effect of garcinol on its hydrolase activity; immunofluorescence and proximity ligation assay (PLA) were used to detect the effects of garcinol on ubiquitin and RPN6; and flow cytometry were used to determine the effects of garcinol on cell apoptosis; and the anti-cancer effect was studied in organoid models. The results showed that RPN6 was a direct binding protein of garcinol; garcinol inhibited the hydrolase activity of proteasome, and induced the accumulation and aggregation of ubiquitin protein, and its proteasomal inhibitory effect was dependent on RPN6; further studies showed that garcinol induced oligomerization of RPN6 and formation of granules in the nucleus; finally, it was verified that garcinol induced apoptosis of tumor cells, and inhibited the growth of organoids of Apc^min/+ small intestine mice. These results suggest that garcinol is a potential proteasome inhibitor, which inhibits proteasome activity by directly targeting RPN6 on proteasome 19S, which in turn induces cell apoptosis and inhibits tumor growth.

Objective To assess the efficacy of early detection of breast cancer and the prognostic value of breast self-examination(BSE).Methods Randomized controlled trials(RCTs)involving BSE were included the present meta-analysis based on their qualities.The pooled analysis was performed with RevMany 4.2.8.Results Three RCTs were identified and then they were included the present metaanalysis.In women who conducted a BSE.the rate of biopsy fora lump in breast was 1.27%in the first 5 years,2.47%in more than 5 years but less than or equal to 10 years,and 2.50%in more than 10 years, respectively,all of which were significantly higher than in those who could not conduct a BSE(P<0.05) There was no significant difierence in the rate of final diagnosis and the mortality for breast cancer between the two populations in any follow-up time(P>0.05).Conclusion The rate of biopsy for a lump in breast in women could be increased by a BSE.which should not have been discarded from the early detection of breast cancer completely despite it is not helpful in increasing the rate of final diagnosis and decreasing the mortality for breast cancer.

The expressions of estrogen receptor (ER) α,ERβ1,and ERβ2 in thyroid carcinoma,thyroid adenoma,and adjacent normal thyroid tissue were determined by RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry,and the relationship of expression levels of three ERs and the main clinical pathologic parameters were evaluated.The result showed that ERα mRNA expression in papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC) tissues was significantly higher than adjacent normal tissue,while,ERβ2 mRNA expression in PTC tissues was significantly lower than normal tissue ( P＜0.05 ).The positive expression of ERβ1 and ERβ2 in the thyroid carcinoma was related with the histological variant of carcinomas; the ERβ2 expressions were related with the lymph node metastasis and TNM staging of the carcinomas.These results suggest that the decreased ERβ2 expression may induce proliferation and carcinogenesis of thyroid follicular epithelial cells as well as progression of the carcinoma,and is a powerful prognostic indicator.
