OBJECTIVE:To study the correlation between RRM2 expression of cervical cancer cell line C33a and Siha and cell sensitivity to gemcitabine(Gem). METHODS:C33a and Siha were treated with 0.1-3.2 μmol/L and 0.5-512 μmol/L of gemcitabine respectively for 72 h;cell viability was measured by MTT assay to calculate the value of IC50. The expression of RRM2 was mea-sured by Western blot and RT-PCR. Siha cell was treated with gradient concentration and large dose of Gem to establish Siha/Gem drug-resistant cell line. RNA interference technology knockdown the expression of RRM2 in Siha/Gem cell,and IC50 of Gem to cell was determined before and after knockdown. RESULTS:The IC50 values of Gem to Siha and C33a were 16.8 μmol/L and 0.63μmol/L. Compared with C33a cells,the expression of RRM2 in Siha cell was higher. Compared with Siha cells,Siha/Gem drug-re-sistant cell(drug resistant index of 16.26)showed higher RRM2 expression. Siha/Gem drug-resistant cell knockdown RRM2,IC50 of Gem to it was decreased,and inverse drug resistant times was 4.24. CONCLUSIONS:There is an negative correlation between RRM2 expression and Gem sensitivity in cervical cancer cell lines. The knockdown of RRM2 in Siha/Gem increases the sensitivity to Gem.

OBJECTIVEThis study aims to explore the method that uses primary tumor contralateral facial artery musculocutaneous (FAMM) flap to reconstruct defects of the tongue and floor of mouth.

METHODSSix cases were selected for the use of primary tumor contralateral FAMM flap to reconstruct tongue and floor of mouth defects after tumor resection.

RESULTSThe FAMM flap of the six cases had a long pedicle that could reach the contralateral tongue and floor of mouth. All flaps were intact until post-operation. All patients experienced post-operation complications, such as temporary facial tension and limited mouth opening, which improved after 3 months. Half a year later, the flaps still did not show signs of shrinking.

CONCLUSIONFeatures of the primary tumor contralateral FAMM flap include the tissue-like material provided for reconstructing tongue or floor of mouth defects, easy acquisition, and high survival rate with minimal donor site morbidity. As such, it is an ideal material for repairing tongue and floor of mouth defects.

Objective To discuss the relations between optimal surgical margin and local recurrence and the impact of preserving segment of sacral nerve root on neural functions based on the clinical and pathological features of giant cell tumor(GCT).Methods From August 1996 to August 2008,48 patients with sacral GCT undergoing tumor resection were respectively analyzed,including 20 males and 28 females with an average of 34.7 years(range,19-74).The tumors were located in S1-S5 in 4 patients,S1-S4 in 7,S1-S3 in 15,S1,2 in 12,S2-S5 in 8,and S3-S5 in 2.Surgical methods included single posterior approach in 29 cases,combined anterior-posterior approach in 19.The surgical margins adopted were en-bloc in 2 patients,marginal in 15,marginal and curettage in 25,and curettage in 9.Results Forty-one of 48 cases were successfully followed up,the average time was 43.5 months(range,18-115).The average blood loss during surgery was 3560 ml(range,550-12 000).Benign lung metastasis occurred in one case 6 years after operation,2 patients died of malignant transformation.Local recurrence occurred in 15 cases.The recurrence rates in patients with en-bloc resection,marginal resection,marginal resection combined with curettage,and curettage were 0,18.2%,40.9%,66.7%,respectively.The recurrence rate of marginal group was significantly lower than that of the curettage group.Of 27 cases with bilateral S3 nerve root preservation,2 sufiered from urine or fetal dysfunction.with an incidence rate of 7.4%.While 4 of 12 patients with unilateral S3 nerve root preservation suffered from sphincter disturbance,with an incidence rate of 33.3%.The significant difference between groups in nerve root preservation was confirmed.Conclusion Optimal surgical margin for sacral GCT is of great importance to local control of tumor recurrence,the surgical procedure of sacral GCT should aim at the marginal resection on the basis of rational sacral nerve roots preservation;preservation of bilateral S3 nerve roots contributes to the recovery of sphincteral function in most patients.

Objective To evaluate the PSD-007-mediated photodynamic effect on mouse osteosarcoma cell line LM-8, both in vitro and in vivo. Methods LM-8 cells were incubated with different concentrations of PSD-007 for 4 hours and then followed different laser irradiations. After photodynamic therapy (PDT), cell viability was measured using MTT assay and the optical density in each experiment was measured at 450 nm with a micro plate reader. The inhibition rate of cell growth was calculated. Four-week-old female C3H mice were used for implantation of LM-8 cells. When the diameter of tumor reached up to 7-8 mm, the mice were randomly divided into following groups: 1) control group, including untreated control, saline with laser irradiation, PSD-007 without laser irradiation; 2) PDT group, PSD-007 (5 and 10 mg/kg) was injected intravenously into the mice, and the tumor site was irradiated with laser light 6 hours after injection. Seven days after PDT, the size and weight of the tumors were measured. The inhibition rate of tumor was calculated, and all tumor specimens were taken for pathologic examination. After the diameter of tumor was 10-12 mm, the tumors were performed a marginal resection and subsequently followed 3 different treatments: without PDT (control), PDT with 240 J/cm2 or 360 J/cm2 laser irradiation. After 4 weeks treatment, the tumor recurrence rates were analyzed. Results MTT assay revealed that the cytotoxic effect of PDT on the LM-8 cells was positively correlated with the concentration of PSD-007 and the level of laser irradiation. When the concentration exceeded 4μg/ml, and the energy exceeded 6 J/cm2, the inhibition ratio was over 50%. No anti-tumor effect was observed in the cells treated with only laser irradiation or PSD-007 injection. Compared with the control group, the size and weight of the tumors were obviously decreased after PDT. PDT performed after marginal resection of the tumor reduced the rate of local recurrence. Conclusion PDT with PSD-007 showed cytotoxic effect on the LM-8 cells, and which performed after marginal resection of the tumor reduced the rate of local recurrence.
