Objective: To investigate the expression of EMS1 in laryngeal carcinoma and its clinical signifi-cance. Method:The expression of EMS1 protein was measured in 40 samples of, 40 samples of para carcinoma tis-sues (which were near to cutting margin of laryngeal carcinoma tissuse over 0. 5 cm) ,and 20 samples of normal la-ryngeal mucosa as controls by Flow Cytometere( Epics-XL Ⅱ ). Results:The quantity and percentage of EMS1 pro-tein expression in laryngeal carcinoma tissues was significantly higher than those in para carcinoma and in normal laryngeal mucosa tissues respectively(P<0. 05). There was no significant expression difference between the para carcinoma tissues and normal laryngeal mucosa tissues. There were positive correlation between the expressions of EMS1 protein and metastasis, pathological grade and clinical stage in laryngeal carcinoma. But there were not rela-tionship with patients' clinical classification, tumor size, smoking history, age and sex. Conclusion: The high ex-pression of EMS1 may contribute to the carcinogenesis and development of laryngeal carcinoma. The expression of EMS1 protein is an important index of judging differentiation, infiltration, metastasis and staging of laryngeal car-cinoma.

Objective To explore three under nasal endoscope surgery treatment the clinical curative effect of maxillary sinus cyst.Methods 95 cases of maxillary sinus cyst patients were chosen,the maxillary sinus were used respectively to open to expand,the nasal passages of maxillary sinus fenestration and maxillary sinus anterior wall fen-estration three types of surgical treatment,postoperative follow -up of 1 year,the clinical curative effect of three kinds of operation method were analyzed.Results The maxillary sinus mouth open expansion of 39 cases during operation,37 cases were cured,2 cases of recurrence;The nasal passages under the maxillary sinus fenestration 27 cases, 26 cases cured,1 case of recurrence;The maxillary sinus anterior wall fenestration 29 cases,29 cases healed;Three kinds of operation cure rate difference had no statistical significance(P >0.05).Conclusion The treatment of max-illary sinus cyst operation should be selected according to the location and size of cysts and whether the various associ-ated withnasal sinuses diseases and other factors determine the.Maxillary sinus cyst neararound the maxillary sinus, sinus cavity lateral wall or with sinus disease can use theostium of maxillary sinus extending open surgery path;near the sinus cavity innerwall and the bottom wall can use windowing of the inferior nasal meatus approach;near the front wall of sinus cavity and large cysts or recurrence can be choice ofmaxillary sinus by fenestration operation path;the purpose is to remove the cystoccurs completely,reduce tissue injury and complications.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression of EMS1 and DcR3 in laryngeal carcinoma and analyze the relation of EMS1 and DcR3. METHOD: The expression of EMS1 and DcR3 protein in 41 laryngeal carcinoma fresh samples and 41 para-carcinoma tissues (to cutting margin > 0.5 cm) were measured by flow cytometry, and 15 normal laryngeal mucosa samples were also studied as controls. RESULT: (1) The quantitative and qualitative expression of EMS1 and DcR3 protein in laryngeal carcinoma tissues was obviously higher than those in para-carcinoma and in normal laryngeal mucosa tissues respectively (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference between the expression of para-carcinoma and normal laryngeal mucosa tissues. (2) In laryngeal carcinoma, the expression of EMS1 and DcR3 protein was independent of patients' clinical classification, tumor size, smoking history, patients' age and sex but associated with tumor metastasis, pathological grade and clinical stage. (3) In laryngeal carcinoma, the expression of EMS1 was positively correlated with that of DcR3. CONCLUSION EMS1 was positively related to DcR3, which might play an important role in the carcinogenesis and development of laryngeal carcinoma by synergic effect.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of Qigesan （QGS） in intervening in the migration and invasion of esophageal carcinoma TE-1 cells. MethodMicroarray technology was used to screen differentially expressed genes （DEGs） in the normal group and the QGS group， and the ontological functions and signaling pathways of DEGs were analyzed. The thiazolyl tetrazolium （MTT） assay was used to detect the effect of QGS on the viability of TE-1 cells. In the subsequent experiments for verification， a blank group， a transforming growth factor-β₁ （TGF-β₁） group， a TGF-β₁ + QGS group， and a TGF-β₁ + SB431542 group were set up. The cell morphology in each experimental group was observed by microscopy. The migration and invasion abilities of cells were detected by wound healing assay， and the mRNA expression levels of E-Cadherin， vimentin， Smad2， and Smad7 were detected by Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）. The protein expression of E-Cadherin， vimentin， p-Smad2/3， Smad2/3， and Smad7 was detected by Western blot. ResultThere were 1 487 DEGs between the QGS group and the blank group， including 1 080 down-regulated ones （accounting for 72.63%） and 407 up-regulated ones. The down-regulated genes were mainly involved in biological processes such as cytoskeletal protein binding， ATP binding， adenylate nucleotide binding， and adenylate ribonucleotide binding， and the involved Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） pathways included TGF-β signaling pathway， cell cycle， extracellular matrix-receptor interaction protein， tumor pathways， and oocyte meiosis. The up-regulated genes were mainly involved in RNA binding， DNA binding， transcriptional regulator activity， transcriptional activator activity， and nucleotide binding， and the KEGG pathways involved mainly included mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK） signaling pathway， bladder cancer， renal cell carcinoma， cancer pathways， and p53 signaling pathway. Compared with the blank group， the inhibition rate of cell viability of TE-1 cells increased after QGS （20， 30， 40， 60， 80 mg·L^-1） intervention for 12， 24， 36， 48， 60 h （P<0.05）， and the inhibition rate was time- and dose-dependent. Compared with the blank group， the TGF-β₁ group showed lengthened cells with fibroblast phenotype. Compared with the TGF-β₁ group， the TGF-β₁ + QGS group showed shortened cells with normal morphology and epithelial phenotype. The cell morphology in the TGF-β₁ + SB431542 group was similar to that of the TGF-β₁ + QGS group. Compared with the blank group， the TGF-β₁ group showed potentiated ability of cell migration and invasion （P<0.05）. Compared with the TGF-β₁ group， the TGF-β₁ + QGS group and the TGF-β₁ + SB431542 group showed inhibited and weakened migration and invasion abilities of cells （P<0.05）. However， there was no significant difference in migration and invasion abilities between the TGF-β₁ + QGS group and the TGF-β₁ + SB431542 group. The mRNA expression levels of vimentin and Smad2 in the TGF-β₁ group were higher （P<0.05）， and the mRNA expression levels of E-Cadherin and Smad7 were lower （P<0.05） than those in the blank group. Compared with the TGF-β₁ group， the TGF-β₁ + QGS group and the TGF-β₁+ SB431542 group exhibited decreased expression levels of vimentin and Smad2 mRNA （P<0.05）， and elevated expression levels of E-Cadherin and Smad7 mRNA （P<0.05）. Compared with the blank group， the TGF-β₁ group showed up-regulated protein expression levels of vimentin， p-Smad2/3， and Smad2/3 （P<0.05）， and reduced protein expression levels of E-Cadherin and Smad7 （P<0.05）. Compared with the TGF-β₁ group， the TGF-β₁ + QGS group and the TGF-β₁ + SB431542 group displayed decreased protein expression levels of vimentin， p-Smad2/3， and Smad2/3 （P<0.05）， and increased protein expression levels of E-Cadherin and Smad7 （P<0.05）. ConclusionThe ethyl acetate extract of QGS inhibits the epithelial-mesenchymal transition （EMT） of TE-1 cells through the TGF-β₁ pathway to reduce the migration and invasion of TE-1 cells.
