A 35-year-old woman patient,complained of intermittent pain in the left flank for a week.Abdominal ultrasound and computed tomography scan revealed a left renal mass.Nephrectomy was performed,and a final diagnosis of adult Wilms' tumor was made based on histopathology and immunohistology.Chemotherapy was conducted for 4 times with dactinomycin D,vincristine and doxorubicin after surgery.At the time of the last recheck,the patient was alive with no evidence of disease.Adult Wilms' tumor is the exceptional malignant renal tumor.Only 1%-2% of Wilms' tumor is diagnosed in adult patients.Because of unspecific tumor symptoms in adults,the diagnosis is frequently made by histology.The diagnosis of adult Wilms' tumor is difficult to make preoperatively because diagnostic imaging only confirms the presence of a renal mass.Stage and histology are the clinical factors guiding the selection of postsurgical treatment and prognosis.Having retrospected 6 cases of adult Wilms' tumor between 1950 and 2007 and reviewed related reports,we conclude that the proper strategies of adjuvant treatment as applied to childhood Wilms' tumor patients after surgery can conspicuously improve the outcome in adult patients.

Objective: To study the effects of Akt inhibitor MK2206 on the proliferation and apoptosis of human breast cancer cell lines T47D and MDA-MB-231, and to elucidate the possible mechanism of such effects. Methods: Human breast cancer T47D and MDA-MB-231 cells were treated with different concentrations of MK2206, respectively. The inhibitory effect of MK2206 on cell proliferation was examined by MTT assay. The apoptosis rates of T47D and MDA-MB-231 cells induced by MK2206 were detected by flow cytometry (FCM). The expression levels of caspase-3, poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), bcl-2, bax, phosphorate-AKT (p-AKT) and total Akt (T-Akt) proteins were detected by Western blotting. Results: The proliferation of T47D and MDA-MB-231 cells were inhibited after treatment with MK2206 at 0.1, 1, 10 and 100 nmol/L for 24 h, respectively. The apoptosis rates of T47D and MDAMB-231 cells were increased induced by MK2206. The expression levels of caspase-3, PARP and bax proteins were up-regulated, while the expression levels of bcl-2 and p-Akt proteins were downregulated. All of these effects occurred in a dose-dependent manner. MK2206 had no significant effect on the expression of T-Akt. Conclusion: MK2206 can inhibit the proliferation and induce the apoptosis in human breast cancer cell lines T47D and MDA-MB-231. These effects may be related with the downregulation of p-AKT and the inhibition of PI3K-Akt signaling pathway.

This study was aimed to screen out an optimal pharmaceutical formulation of Wuji Gastric Floating Sus-tained-release Tablets. With multicomponents of release for index, the extra-floating ability of the tablets was stud-ied with the orthogonal test of four excipients, which were HPMC (K100M), PEG 6000, sodium bicarbonate and se-tanol. The results showed that the combined optimal pharmaceutical formulation was 35% HPMC, 5% PEG 6000, 10% sodium bicarbonate, 15% setanol, 10% MCC and 25% main drug. It was concluded that Wuji Gastric Floating Sustained-release Tablets had the characteristics of slow-release and long floating duration which comply with re-quirements of formulation design. This preparation technique is with good maneuverability.

Objective To investigate the effects of castration treatment by luteinizing hormonereleasing hormone(LHRH)analog(goserelin)on bone loss and bone resorption in men with prostate cancer.Methods Serum sex hormones,bone mineral density(BMD),serum and urine concentrations of bone turnover markers were determined in men with prostate cancer(n=36) and in age-matched controls(n=13).BMD in the lumbar spine(L2-4),femoral neck,trochanter,Ward's triangle and total femoral was determined by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry(DEXA).Results After 12 months of LHTH analog therapy,the BMD of the femoral neck,total femoral and Ward's triangle decreased significantly in men with prostate cancer compared with the controls,all P＜0.05. No significant bone loss was observed in the control subjects.The concentrations of the serum markers of bone formation,i.e.bone alkaline phosphatase(BALP),and urine markers of bone resorption,i. e.DPD,Cros,Ca/Cr were significantly increased in patients treated with LHRH analog compared with control subjects,all P＜0.05,respectively.Conclusions These findings demonstrate that a significant increase of bone turnover and loss of bone mass in men with prostate cancer after receiving LHRH analog therapy were correlated with the decreased levels of serum androgen and estrogen,and suggest that measuring BMD by DEXA and assesing the bone turnover markers can early detect the bone loss and osteoporosit induced by goserelin castration treatment.

Objective This paper aimes to analyze the scientific research development trend,research emphasis and cooperation situation of Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention since its establishment,to provide the suggestions for policy making of scientific management and related decisions.Methods Based on GoPubMed,Literature quantitative analysis was used to analyze the publication time and journal distribution,research topics and core authors of the scientific papers from 2002 to 2015.Results A total number of 4 501 research papers had been published in 576 different kinds of periodicals.Research topics were based on population health with special focus on the epidemiological,microbiological and etiological studies of infectious disease.Chronic non-communicable disease and health research were paying more and more attention to.Core author group and the core research team have been formed.Conclusions The capability to conduct scientific research was increased and the international influence was increasing year by year,the ability of infectious disease control was strengthened,and the scientific research team worked together more closely.Thus,the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention should reinforce scientific management,develop advanced disciplines,as well as improve the quality of scientific research in the future.

This article was aimed to study the multicomponent in vivo releasing rules of Zuojin Gastric Floating Sus-tained-release Tablet. Stomach contents of rabbits were collected at different times and then prepared into solutions for the study. The HPLC was used to establish fingerprints of each time and fingerprints of completely dissolved samples. The in vivo releasing rates were calculated. The evaluation was made on releasing behaviors among index components as well as between index components and preparations. The results showed that within 10 h, the f2 of berberine and limonin, rutaecarpine, preparation were 52, 61.5, 66.4, respectively. The f2 of limonin and rutae-carpine, preparation were 70, 46.5, 53.7, respectively. It was concluded that within 10 h, the releasing behavior of berberine and limonin, rutaecarpine, preparation was similar. The releasing behavior of rutaecarpine and limonin, preparation was similar. However, the releasing behavior of limonin and preparation was different.
