1.DNA repair mechanisms of tumor cells and chemotherapy sensitivity
Journal of International Oncology 2008;35(5):346-348
DNA damage caused by chemotherapeutic drugs plays an important role in the tumor chemo- therapy.The DNA repair pathways that are activated in response to DNA damage induce resistance to chemo-therapeutic drugs or radiation and depress the effect of these agents on tumor cells.Down-regulated DNA repair capacity has shown a better effect through inducing tumor cell hypersensitivity to chemotherapeutic drugs.It has emerged as an important comprehensive approach by down-regulated expression of DNA repair genes in the treatment of cancer.

Objective Implementing the scientific research performance evaluation indicator system constructed to evaluate the situation of scientific research performance conducted by two basic Departments during the 12th Five-Year period in a general hospital.To understand the practical applicability of the scientific evaluation index system,and also propose comments and suggestions based on the comparison between assessment score and actual research situation in the departments.Methods Based on the database of scientific research management information platform,collect related research data from two basic departments of the hospital in latest five years.Using SPSS software to conduct statistical analysis on the total score of the first and two indicators,as well as the specific indicators of the three indicators,according to the performance evaluation index system and the weight built by the hospital.Results The index system can basically reflect the general information of scientific research input and output in the department,however,some indicators cannot truly reflect the index importance and the differences between the index weight is not significant,so it is necessary to make amendment based on demonstration.Conclusions Hospital should dynamically update the index system to make them match the developing strategy of the hospital,also important to combine them with research stimulation to guarantee more scientific management and better service to the research development of hospitals.

Objectives In order to discuss the effect ofShujin-Huoxue decoction combined with gradually functional exercise for the ankle fracture postoperative function recovery.MethodsA total of 60 patients with ankle joint fracture were treated by random number table method, and were divided into the observation and control groups, 30 patients in each group. The observation group was treated with the Shujin-Huoxue decoction orally and topical application and gradually functional exercise therapy; while the control group was treated with compound sodium aescinate gel for topital application combined with gradual functional exercise therapy. Two months were a course, so both groups were treated a course. The stretching and flexion angles were measured by protractor. The ankle joint function was measued by the Baird-Jackson rating scale. The clinical curative effect was evaluated.Results The total effect rate in the observation group was 90.0% (27/30) and control group was 73.3% (22/30). There was significant difference between two groups (χ2=2.004,P=0.039). After treatment, the feet stretching Angle (15.69° ± 3.02°vs. 13.50° ± 2.36°,t=6.314) and plantar flexion Angle (32.07° ± 0.34°vs. 27.95° ± 5.40°,t=10.205) in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusions TheShujin-Huoxue decoction combined with gradually functional exercise could improve the ankle activity and the clinical curative effect.

Objective:To evaluate the therapeutic effect of 177Lu-prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-I&T on prostate cancer. Methods:The culture medium of 1.85, 18.50, 185.00, 555.00 and 925.00 MBq/L 177Lu-PSMA-I&T was added into LNCaP cells (200 μl/well, 5 experimental groups and 1 control group, 3 replicates in each group) for 24 h, and the cell viability in each group was detected. The culture medium of 3.7 MBq 177Lu-PSMA-I&T was added into LNCaP cells (1 experimental group, 1 control group, 3 replicates in each group) for 48 h to detect the changes of cell cycle. LNCaP cells (3 experimental groups and 1 control group, 3 replicates in each group) were added into the culture medium of 3.7, 19.5 and 37.0 MBq 177Lu-PSMA-I&T for 48 h to detect cell apoptosis. Tumor-bearing mice models were established (BALB/c-nu/nu nude mice, n=32). The changes of tumor volume and body mass of tumor-bearing mice were observed within 20 d after treatment. On the 7th day after treatment, tumor tissues of tumor-bearing mice were stained with HE staining and fluorescently stained with Ki-67 protein, and apoptosis was detected by TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay. On the 20th day after treatment, pathological analysis was performed on the main viscera of the tumor-bearing mice. One-way analysis of variance, the least significant difference t test and paired t test were used to analyze the data. Results:Compared with the control group ((100.00±12.35)%), the cell survival rates were significantly decreased after 177Lu-PSMA-I&T intervention in 185.00, 555.00, 925.00 MBq/L groups ((57.56±6.35)%, (38.65±3.39)%, (27.95±4.48)%; F=78.91, t values: 8.312-14.106, all P<0.01). Cell survival rates were significantly reduced in 185.00 MBq/L group at different time points (24, 48 and 72 h; F=78.28, t values: 6.628-14.384, all P<0.01). The proportion of LNCaP cells in G2/M phase was increased from (12.36±0.28)% to (19.92±0.48)% ( t=17.180, P<0.01). The apoptosis rates of cells were significantly increased in 18.5 and 37.0 MBq groups ( F=71.86, t values: -6.138, -13.050, both P<0.05). The difference of relative tumor volume (RTV%) was statistically significant among 3.7, 14.8 and 29.6 MBq groups and control group (136.7±7.4, 59.2±23.8, 47.3±13.8 vs 240.3±3.7; F=78.20, t values: 7.549-13.345, all P<0.01). But there was no significant difference in body mass of tumor-bearing mice among groups. Compared with the control group, the positive rates of Ki-67 staining cells ((37.23±3.04)% vs (14.89±3.80)%, (5.60±1.83)%, (3.46±0.71)%) and TUNEL-fluorescein isothiocyanate (TUNEL-FITC) staining ((0.74±0.18)% vs (1.61±0.30)%, (3.19±0.44)%, (3.54±0.47)%) in tumor tissues of 3.7, 14.8 and 29.6 MBq groups were statistically significant ( F=103.91, t values: 10.429-15.762; F=38.66, t values: from -9.312 to -2.881, all P<0.01). Conclusions:177Lu-PSMA-I&T has a good therapeutic effect on prostate cancer, with no obvious therapeutic side effects. Therefore, 177Lu-PSMA-I&T is expected to be an ideal drug for treating prostate cancer.
