1.Neo-adjuvant endocrine therapy in breast cancer
Cancer Research and Clinic 2011;23(2):139-141
Nco-adjuvant endocrine therapy has provided opened new alternatives for locally advanced breast cancer, especially for patient groups such as the elderly, those who are not suited for chemotherapy, and those whose response may not be optimal. The latest generation of endocrine therapy for breast cancer,aromatase inhibitors, has proved superior to tamoxifen in terms of toxicity and efficacy in the adjuvant setting.Compared with neo-adjuvant chemotherapy, the appropriate patients to receive nco-adjuvant endocrine therapy can achieve similar short-term benefit. However, because of fewer long-term follow up results, the overall prognosis is not clear.

Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2014;46(4):219-221
Long-term failure in choice of materials for artificial esophagus (AE) and in treating incidence of postoperative com-plications of esophageal cancer has resulted in lack of ideal AE regeneration. As one of the innate elements forming the human body, carbon possesses high tissue affinity. Artificial esophagus as the induced stent of esophageal regeneration is the best choice for replac-ing esophageal defects and for reintroducing oral feeding after cancer radical resection.
9.Roles of ERK-CREB signaling pathway in spinal cord in naloxone-induced withdrawal response in morphine-dependent rats
Chinese Journal of Anesthesiology 2012;32(3):307-310
Objective To evaluate the role of extracelluar signal-regulated kinase (ERK)-cyclic AMP response element binding protein (CREB) signaling pathway in the spinal cord in naloxone-induced withdrawal response in morphine-dependent rats.Methods Fifty male adult SD rats,aged 2 months,weighing 200-250 g,in which intrathecal catheters were successfully implanted without complications,were randomly divided into 5 groups (n =10 each):group control (group C); group morphine dependence (group MD); group morphine withdrawal (group MW); group U0126 (ERK signaling pathway blocker); group dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO,solvent for U0126).Morphine dependence was induced by increasing doses of subcutaneous morphine for 6 days.The initial dose of morphine was 10 mg/kg twice a day and was increased by 10 mg/kg twice every other day until 50 mg/kg on 6th day in groups MD,MW,U0126 and DMSO.Morphine withdrawal response was induced by intraperitoneal naloxone 4 mg/kg at 4 h after last morphine administration in groups MW,U0126 and DMSO.U0126 150μg (in DMSO 10 μl) and DMSO 10 μl were administered intrathecally at 30 min before naloxone administration in groups U0126 and DMSO respectively.Morphine withdrawal response (0=no withdrawal response,3 =severe response)and touch evoked agitation (0 =no agitation,2 =severe agitation) were observed and scored during 1 h after naloxone administration.The animals were then sacrificed and the spinal cord was removed for determination of the expression of phosphorylated ERK (p-ERK) and phosphorylated CREB (p-CREB) by immuno-histochemistry and Western blot.Results Morphine withdrawal significantly up-regulated the p-ERK and p-CREB expression in group MW compared with group C ( P < 0.05).Withdrawal response score and touch evoked agitation score were significantly increased in groups MW,U0126 and DMSO as compared with group MD ( P < 0.05).U0126 pretreatment significantly attenuated naloxone-induced increase in withdrawal response score and touch evoked agitation score and down-regulated p-ERK and p-CREB expression in group U0126 as compared with group MW ( P < 0.05).Conclusion ERK-CREB signaling pathway in the spinal cord is involved in morphine withdrawal response in morphine-dependent rats.
