Objective To evaluate the feasibility and safety of thoracoscopic radical resection of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)patients under laryngeal mask anesthesia. Methods A total of 40 patients with NSCLC from March to August 2016 in NanFang Hospital of Southern Medical University were recruited and divided into two groups,the laryngeal mask anesthesia(n=20)and the intubation anesthesia group(n=20). Patients from two groups were followed up. Post-operativerecovery ,systemic inflammation response and quality of life were assessed. Results There was no significant difference between the laryngeal mask anesthesia and the intubation anesthesia group in the operation time ,the lowest oxygen saturation ,the maximum end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure and the surgical field and the satisfaction of anesthesia and blood loss. Post-operative time to eat ,postoperative use of antibiotics , postoperative hospital stay and drainage time were much shorter in the laryngeal mask anesthesia group ,which also had lowerlevel of white blood cells ,neutrophils and C-reactive protein. Patients with NSCLC undergoing laryngeal mask anesthesia had much higher scores in the quality of life evaluation. Conclusion Thoracoscopic radical resectionunder laryngeal mask anesthesia is safe and feasible for NSCLC patients. It has advantages in reducing the systemic inflammatory response ,accelerating the recovery rate and improving postoperative life quality.

More efficient drug delivery system and formulation with less adverse effects are needed for the clinical application of broad-spectrum antineoplastic agent doxorubicin (DOX). Here we obtained outer-membrane vesicles (OMVs), a nano-sized proteoliposomes naturally released by Gram-negative bacteria, from attenuated and prepared doxorubicin-loaded O0MVs (DOX-OMV). Confocal microscopy and distribution study observed that DOX encapsulated in OMVs was efficiently transported into NSCLC A549 cells. DOX-OMV resulted in intensive cytotoxic effects and cell apoptosis as evident from MTT assay, Western blotting and flow cytometry due to the rapid cellular uptake of DOX. In A549 tumor-bearing BALB/c nude mice, DOX-OMV presented a substantial tumor growth inhibition with favorable tolerability and pharmacokinetic profile, and TUNEL assay and H&E staining displayed extensive apoptotic cells and necrosis in tumor tissues. More importantly, OMVs' appropriate immunogenicity enabled the recruitment of macrophages in tumor microenvironment which might synergize with their cargo DOX . Our results suggest that OMVs can not only function as biological nanocarriers for chemotherapeutic agents but also elicit suitable immune responses, thus having a great potential for the tumor chemoimmunotherapy.
