Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in the world.PD-1 is a member of the CD28 family expressed on the surface of a variety of immune cells.PD-L1, one of PD-1 ligands, plays a pivotal role in the ability of tumor cells to evade the host immune system.A recent study showed that signaling via mutant EGFR in lung tumor cells upregulates directly tumor PD-L1 expression.In this review, the clinical significance of the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway in immunotherapy for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and the relevance to targeted therapy were summarized.

AIM: To explore the effects of axial stress regulation on healing of lengthened ca llus. METHODS: Tibiofibulars of 30 rabbits were lengthened 2 cm with t wice plane sreminobicular crib external fixator. Experimental group continues to lengthen 3 mm, and then were drawn and shortened 0.5mm once every 24 h separate ly for 10 days. Ten days later, tibiofibulars were axial short-stressed 1 mm wee kly with three times. Animals were killed 58 days after operation and X-ray, bon e density and histology tests were performed with lengthened bone. RESULTS: X-ray examination had no significant difference between two group animal when le ngthen ended, but X-ray showed lengthened callus was different on day 58. In con trol group, lengthened center had a serial callus and cortex had no formed, in experimental group, lengthened center had serial cortex and transfixial medullar y cavity expect serial callus. Bone density tests with two-energetic X-ray bone density measuring device showed bone density was higher in experimental group th an control group (P

BACKGROUND:No particularly effective medicine could treat human immunodeficiency virus 1(HIV 1) associated dementia(HAD) at present,which mainly because the mechanism of HIV 1 infection induced neural damage and necrosis is still not completely clarified. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of human immunodeficiency virus I type(HIV 1) enveloped protein(EP) gp120 on the synaptic transmission and plasticity in hippocampal CA1 area of rat to clarify the mechanism of HAD generation. DESIGN:A paired design. SETTING:Department of Pathophysiology of Medical College of Jinan University. MATERIALS:The study was conducted in the Department of Pathophysiology(a tertiary national key laboratory of National Administration for Traditional Chinese Medicine,registration number: TCM 03 131) of the Medical College of Jinan University from January to October of 2003.Male SD rats aged between 2 and 5 weeks were used in the study. INTERVENTIONS:Brain slice perfusion and recording technique was employed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:To record the excitatory postsynaptic potential(EPSP) in hippocampal CA1 area in rat;to investigate the effects of gp120 on long term potentiation(LTP) induced by high frequency electric stimulation in Schaffer lateral branch. RESULTS:gp120 had inhibitive effect on LTP in hippocampal CA1 area in rat [the average amplitude of LTP decreased from normal (216.1± 14.0) % to(90.8± 6.0) % ,n=12,P< 0.01],but had no effect on basic EPSP.PKA/PKC protein kinase(PK) inhibitor H7 could reverse this inhibitive effect [the average amplitude of LTP was(198.8± 16.2) % ,n=8,P< 0.01]. CONCLUSION:gp120 might participate the generation of HAD through inhibiting LTP in hippocampal CA1 area.

Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1 ),which is highly expressed in NSCLC,can be divided into two categories:membrane PD-L1 and soluble PD-L1 .PD-L1 participates in tumor immune escape through combining with its receptor.PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitors have entered the phase Ⅰ studies and showed a good application prospect.It is also found that the sensitivity of PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitors is strongly associated with the expression of PD-L1 in tumor.Therefore,PD-L1 can be used as a biomarker to pre-dict its curative effect.
