The expression of sLea/x which correlates with conventional histopathologic parameters serves as a useful indicator for the prognosis of metastatic disease. The bindings between sLea/x and their common ligand E-selectin initiate hematogenous metastasis of cancer. Certain bioactive conformation is crucial for the interaction between sLea/x and their ligands. Thus, a new class of compounds that mimic the structures of sLea/x can potently inhibit not only their functional bindings to selectins, but also the metastasis of cancer. This review is mainly on the sLea/x molecular structure,biosynthesis,distribution, especially the relationship between sLea/x and hematogenous metastasis of cancer and the design of drugs that mimic the structures of sLea/x.

ObjectiveTo assess the feasibility and efficacy of a docetaxel plus cisplatin regimen for patients of locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC)treated concurrently with definitive IMRT in a short-term observation.MethodsRadiation consisted of 7000 cGy given to the planning target volume (PTV) of primary tumor, 6600 cGy given to the PTV of metastatic lymph nodes and 6000 cGy to the PTV of subclinical disease in 220-228 cGy/fraction were delivered over 31-32 treatment days. Thirty-two patients with newly diagnosed NPC received definitive intensity-modulated radiation therapy(IMRT)concurrent with docetaxel 75 mg/m2 on day 1 and DDP 75 mg/m2 on day 1(or DDP 25 mg/m2 on day 1-day 3), repeating every 21 to 28 days for 2 cycles.ResultsAll patients received the full dose of radiotherapy and completed 2 cycles of chemotherapy with a median follow-up of 13 months (2-28 months).No treatment-related death was observed. Major toxicities included hematologic toxicity and mucositis. The incidence rates of grade 3-4 leucopenia,grade 3-4 neutropenia and grade 3 acute mucositis were 46.9 % (15/32),59.4 % (19/32) and 40.6 % (13/32) respectively.The complete remission (CR) rate was 96.9 % (31/32).During treatment,90.6 % (29/32)patients acquired granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF)for leucopenia. The 1-year overall survival, local recurrence-free survival, regional recurrence-free survival and distant metastasis-free survival were 100 % (31/32),96.9 % (31/32),96.9 % (31/32),96.9 % (31/32),respectively,for the whole cohort.Conclusions2 cycles of the docetaxel plus cisplatin regimen with concurrent IMRT are demonstrated being feasible and effective in treating locally advanced NPC with promising results.The major toxicities are leucopenia and neutropenia, but they are tolerable with the use of G-CSF. Further investigation of long-term efficacy of the regimen is required.

Objective:To propose a method to evaluate the total body water (TBW) of patients on hemodialysis with urea kinetic model (UKM), and compare it with body surface bio-impedance spectrum (BIS) analysis. Methods:We enrolled 24 adult patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) without hyper-catabolism in our dialysis center. All of them had been on hemodialysis for more than 3 months. TBW was measured with BIS analysis immediately before and after dialysis session, and one hour after hemodialysis session. Spent dialysate was collected; blood samples were taken before and one hour after hemodialysis session, TBW before hemodialysis session were calculated by UKM. Results:Patients were 6 men and 18 women, the average age was (51.2?13.5) years and the average time on dialysis was (33.2?36.7) months. Causes of ESRD included chronic glomerulonephritis (8 patients), diabetic nephropathy (1 patients), hypertensive renal damage (1 patients), interstitial nephritis(two patients), chronic pyelonephritis (two patients). The average ultrafiltration volume was (2.7?1.0) L (0.5-4.4 L) . Plasma urea concentrations were (23.06?5.76) mmol/L and (8.15?2.06) mmol/L before and one hour after hemodialysis session, respectively. There was no significant difference between TBW measured immediately after and one hour after hemodialysis session with BIS analysis [(29.9?8.8) L and (29.8?8.6) L, respectively; average difference was (0.1?0.9)L, P=0.70]. These two measurements correlated very well (Pearson r=0.99, P

Abstract? AIM: To investigate changes of anterior chamber parameters after posterior chamber phakic implantable collamer lens ( ICL ) surgery and its correlation with intraocular pressure ( IOP) .?METHODS: This was a retrospective case series study. Seventy four eyes in 43 myopia patients were examined by Allegro Oculyzer anterior segment tomography to obtain the changes of anterior chamber volume ( ACV ) , anterior chamber angle ( ACA) , central anterior chamber depth ( ACD) and vault, meanwhile, to measure the IOP to analyze the correlation with anterior chamber parameters.?RESULTS: Compared with preoperative, ACV, ACA, ACD all decreased apparently ( P <0.01 ) in the postoperative period of 1, 3, and 6mo.ACV, ACA and ACD showed their stability in each period after the surgery.There were changes of vault in 1 and 6mo ( t=27.66, P=0.01).IOP had not altered when compared with the preoperative.This research revealed that IOP had no relation with ACV, ACA, ACD and vault in every phase( all P>0.05).?CONCLUSION:For patients underwent ICL, the anterior chamber parameters all decreased which included ACV, ACA, ACD, and had stabilized since early postoperative period. Correspondingly, IOP was stable and had not correlate with ACV, ACA, ACD and vault, however the long-term observation is still necessary.

With the use of high pure HF and HNO3 reagents, and autoclaves made of high purity Rerfluoroalkoxy ( PFA ) material, a solution sample digestion technique effective for phosphate samples, subjected to high temperature fusion, was established. The whole procedure was concise, fast and of low blank value. Key factors such as the amount and ratios of the reagents, the digestion temperature and time, were systematically optimized, it was found that within 0. 5 h at 150 ℃, only 1. 7 mL of total reagent consumption could lead to a complete sample decomposition. Most importantly, the samples were not required to be ground to fine powder, which greatly reduced the risk of contamination. In addition, an effective liquid_liquid extraction procedure based on 5_nonylsalicylaldehyde oxime as the extractant was established for matrix separation and analyte preconcentration. Under the optimal extraction conditions of 5 mL of 15% extractant, 0. 5% HNO3 of extraction acidity and 20% HNO3 of back_extraction acidity, a matrix separation efficiency of over 99. 999% could be realized and a preconctration factor of 10 could be obtained, which resulted in complete elimination of the matrix_induced interference and great enhancement of the analytical sensitivity. After optimization of the operation parameters of ICP_MS, high signal to background detection of Cu in 20%HNO3 at 840 W of plasma power and low sample uptake rate were realized. The detection limits of 2. 5 ng/g, RSD of 3. 3% for six detections of parallel samples, and the recovery of 94. 3% for spike test were obtained, respectively. The method was finally applied to three real samples analysis, and the results agreed well with the data from laser adsorption loss experiment.

Objective To analyze the methylation status and protein expression of Ras association domain family- 1A (RASSF1A) in endometriosis (EMS). Methods The ectopic and corresponding eutopic endometrium tissues were collected from 45 women with EMS and normal endometrium tissues of 20 women without EMS. The methylation status of RASSF1A was examined by methylation specific PCR (MSP). Immunohistochemistry was performed to measure the level of RASSF1A in endometrium tissues. Results The RASSF1A protein expression rate in ectopic endometrium, eutopic endometrium, and normal endometrium was 37.78%(17/45), 60.00%(27/45) and 85.00%(17/20), and there was significant difference (χ2 = 13.136, P = 0.001). The frequency of aberrant methylation of RASSF1A was 55.56%(25/45), 33.33%(15/45) and 0 in ectopic endometrium , eutopic endometrium, and normal endometrium, and there was significant difference (χ2 =18.770, P = 0.000). The frequency of aberrant methylation of RASSF1A had no significant differnce throughout the menstrual cycle in ectopic endometrium and eutopic endometrium: 66.67%(14/21) vs. 45.83%(11/24), 38.10%(8/21) vs. 29.17%(7/24), P>0.05. In ectopic endometrium, the frequency of aberrant methylation of RASSF1A inⅢ-Ⅲstage was significantly higher than that in Ⅰ-Ⅱstage (χ2=5.940, P=0.015). In ectopic endometrium and eutopic endometrium, the RASSF1A protein expression had negative correlation with aberrant methylation of RASSF1A (r =- 0.594、- 0.577, P<0.01). Conclusions Epigenetic inactivation of RASSF1A through aberrant promoter methylation may be strongly correlated with the formation and progression of EMS, and assessment of RASSF1A methylation status in eutopic endometrium may be a potentially useful biomarker to enhance the early detection of EMS.
