Journal of International Oncology 2014;(7):529-533
ApolipoptoteinA1isthemaincomponentofhigh-densitylipoproteincholesterolintheplas-ma,which plays an important role in the lipid transportation and metabolism.It is closely related with cardio-vascular disease,liver disease,hereditary amyloidosis and so on.CA1 25 ,as an important biomarker,has been widely used for the diagnosis and monitoring treatment of ovarian cancer.Improved sensitivity and specificity of diagnosis are obtained when it is combined with other tumor markers,especially CA1 25 .As reported recently, it also is related with the generation,progress and prognosis of ovarian cancer.It has been promising to be a new kind of treatment.

Objective To investigate the role of the expression of a proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL) and its receptors in the gastric carcinogenesis. Methods The real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RFQ-PCR) was used to detect expression of APRIL and its receptors. Based on the standard curves, the quantitative levels of target genes in tissue samples were determined by using software, and the results were presented as the ratios of mRNA levels of target genes to ?2-microgluobulin(?2M). Results The detection linear range of RFQ-PCR was 101-109 pg/ml and the coefficient of variation values for both intra-experimental and inter-experimental reproducibility ranged 6.52% - 12.02% and 8.76% - 14.16%, respectively.The expression levels of APRIL in the tissue of intestinal metaplasia , dysplasia and gastric cancer were significantly higher than those in normal tissue(P0.05 , respectively). Conclusions The present study indicated that RFQ-PCR had satisfied sensitivity and reproducibility in quantitative measurement of APRIL and its receptors. APRIL may play an important role in the development and progress of gastric cancer and could be established as a target molecule for early diagnosis and anti-cancer therapy. Besides, there maybe some unknown receptors of APRIL expressed on tumor tissue.

Objective To evaluate the gender differences in neuromuscular blockade induced with rocuronium in patients undergoing abdominal surgery. Methods Twenty-four ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 20-59 yrs undergoing abdominal surgery under general anesthesia were enrolled in this study. Their body mass index (BMI) ranged between 18.5-25 kg?m-2. Patients with neuromuscular disease were excluded and no patient was taking any drug that might influence the effect of muscle relaxant. The patients were divided into male group ( n = 12) and female group (n = 12). The neuromuscular function was monitored and recorded using accelerography (DK-5210, Biometer, Denmark). The response of adductor pollicis muscle to train-of-four (TOF) stimulation of ulnar nerve were recorded. Body temperature was maintained at 36.0-36.9℃ and room temperature at 24-26℃ during surgery. The premedication included intramuscular atropine 0.01 mg?kg-1 and oral diazepam 10 mg. Anesthesia was induced with fentanyl 2-4 ?g?kg-1, propofol 2-3 mg?kg-1 and rocuronium 0.6 mg?kg-1. The patients were intubated and mechanically ventilated (VT = 7-10 ml RR = 12-14 bpm). PET CO2 was maintained between 35-45 mm Hg. Anesthesia was maintained with propofol by TCI (effect-site concentration was set at 3-4 ?g?ml-1) and intermittent i.v. boluses of fentanyl. Rocuronium (1 mg?ml-1) was infused and T1 was maintained at 5%-10% of the control height. At the end of surgery rocuronium infusion was terminated and neostigmine 0.05 mg?kg-1 was given i.v. .Results There were significant differences in body weight and height between male and female groups ( P

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of different doses of sufentanil citrate on hemodynamic indexes and stress response indexes of Crouzon syndrome children with craniofacial reconstruction. METHODS:60 cases of Crouzon syndrome under-going craniofacial reconstruction were selected from our hospital during Jan. 2010-Jan. 2016,and then randomly divided into group A,group B and group C,with 20 cases in each group. 3 groups were given pump injection of Propofol injection 4-8 mg/(kg·h)for anesthesia induction+Sufentanil citrate injection [group A 0.3 μg/(kg·h),pump injection;group B 0.6 μg/(kg·h),pump injection;group C 1.0 μg/kg,iv,0.5 h/time] for anesthesia maintenance, Cisatracurium besilate for injection 0.1 mg/kg,iv,every 40 min, drug withdrawal 5 min before the end of surgery. The hemodynamic indexes(MAP,HR)and stress response indexes(ACTH,cor-tisol)were observed in 3 groups at different time points as well as the occurrence of ADR. RESULTS:MAP levels of group C at 5 min after skin incision,1 h after operation and immediately at the end of surgery were significantly higher than before anesthesia, while those of group B were significantly higher than group C at same time points. HR of group A at 1 h after surgery and that of group B at 5 min after skin incision and 1 h after surgery were significantly higher than before anesthesias;HR of group B at 1 h after surgery was significantly lower than that of group A,and its HR at 5 min after skin incision and 1 h after surgery were signifi-cantly lower than those of group C. ACTH levels of 3 groups at 5 min after skin incision,1 h after surgery and immediately after the end of surgery were significantly higher than before anesthesia. ACTH levels of group B at 5 min after skin incision,1 h after surgery and immediately after the end of surgery were significantly lower than those of group A and C,and the group A was signifi-cantly lower than the group C at same time points. Cortisol levels of group A at 1 h after surgery,and those of group C at 5 min af-ter skin incision,1 h after surgery and immediately after the end of surgery were significantly higher than before anesthesia. Corti-sol levels of group B at 1 h after surgery were significantly lower than those of group A;cortisol levels of group A at 5 min after skin incision and immediately after the end of surgery and those of group B at 5 min after skin incision,1 h after surgery and imme-diately after the end of surgery were all significantly lower than those of group C. There were statistical significance all above(P<0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 3 groups. CONCLU-SIONS:Pump injection of sufentanil citrate 0.6 μg/(kg·h) can maintain analgesic effect of Crouzon syndrome children with craniofacial reconstruction,can keep hemodynamics sta-ble and effectively inhibit stress response during surgery with good safety.

Objective To clarify the expression and clinicopathological significances of mTOR and Merlin proteins in spinal schwannoma.Methods Immunohistochemical SP method was used to detect the expression levels of mTOR and Merlin proteins in tumor tissues from 21 spinal schwannoma patients.The meaning of the two proteins expression changes on schwannoma was analyzed.Results In 21 cases of schwannoma patients,the mTOR was positive expression in 16 cases,negative expression in 5 cases,while in the normal neural tissue,mTOR was all negative expression.In 21 cases of schwannoma patients,the Merlin protein was negative expression in 18 cases,positive expression in 3 cases,but it was positive in all of normal neural tissue.Merlin protein expression was negatively correlated with mTOR protein expression (r =-0.785,P < 0.001).Conclusion The expression level of mTOR proteins in schwannoma is significantly higher than that in normal nerve tissue,while the expression level of Merlin protein in schwannoma tissue is significantly lower than that in normal nerve tissue.There is an internal relationship between mTOR and Merlin.
