Acta Medicinae Universitatis Scientiae et Technologiae Huazhong 2015;(1):82-86
Objective To investigate the expressions of SOCS3 and IL‐6 in triple‐negative breast cancer(TNBC)and their clinical significance.Methods The expressions of SOCS3 and IL‐6 in TNBC and normal breast cells were detected by Western blot and fluorescence quantitative PCR.Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect their expressions in 84 TNBCs ,33 breast fibromas and 11 normal breast tissues. The correlation of their expressions in TNBC and the relationship between their expressions and clinical pathological parameters were analyzed as well.Results SOCS3 was not expressed or down‐expressed in TNBC cell lines while IL‐6 was over‐expressed. The positive rate of SOCS3 protein was 32.1% in TNBCs ,63.6% in breast fi‐bromas(P<0.01)and 72.7% in normal breast tissues (P< 0.01);and that of IL‐6 protein was 72.6% in TNBCs ,30.3% in breast fibromas(P< 0.01)and 27.3% in normal breast tissues (P< 0.01).Moreover ,a significant negative correlation was found between the expression of SOCS3 and that of IL‐6 in TNBC(rs = -0.590 ,P<0.01). The expressions of SOCS3 and IL‐6 were markedly associated with tumor size ,lymph node metastasis ,clinical stages and expressions of Ki‐67 and p53(P<0.05) , but not with age ,histological grades or menopausal status(P>0.05).Conclusion The expressions of SOCS3 and IL‐6 are asso‐ciated with the development of TNBC ,suggesting that SOCS3 and IL‐6 can serve as biological markers for evaluating the prog‐nosis ,and therapeutic targets of T NBC.

We aimed to explore what kind of endocrine treatments are optimal for hormone receptorpositive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer in some specific clinical situations. We searched randomized controlled trials in Embase, Medline, the Cochrane library, and PubMed from inception to April 1, 2020 and performed a network meta-analysis based on a Bayesian fixed-effects model. Progression-free survival (PFS) with hazard ratios and corresponding 95% confidence interval was defined as the primary endpoint, while overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), clinical benefit rate and serious adverse events were used as secondary endpoints. A total of 35 studies involving 12,285 patients and 24 treatment options were included. In general, most co-treatment options prolonged PFS compared to single-agent therapy, of which aromatase inhibitor (AI) plus everolimus and fulvestrant plus palbociclib were probably the most effective agents, and the latter had the best safety record. However, despite the superior efficacy of fulvestrant plus capecitabine for PFS and OS, palpable toxic effects have been demonstrated for this treatment, so its application must be scrupulously considered. The results of subgroup analysis indicated that fulvestrant combined with palbociclib improved prognosis for phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-mutated patients, PI3K-unmutated patients, patients with endocrine therapy resistance, and visceral metastatic patients, while no obvious improvement was detected in OS. Moreover, the efficacy of fulvestrant plus cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors was slightly better than that of AI plus CDK4/6 inhibitors, while AI plus everolimus was more efficacious than fulvestrant combined with everolimus in terms of PFS, OS, and ORR. In conclusion, our results provide moderate evidence that fulvestrant plus palbociclib and AI plus everolimus were the most effective treatments, while the efficacy and safety of fulvestrant plus palbociclib was obviously superior in some specific clinical situations.

Objective To investigate the distribution of divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1) in the cerebellum of APP/PS1 transgenic mouse. Methods Immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, and confocal laser scanning microscopy were used to analyze the relationship between DMTl and amyloid beta (Aβ) and their distribution in senile plaques. Western blotting was used to analyze DMT1 protein level in the APP/PS1 transgenic mouse cerebellum. Results DMTl and Aβ were mainly located in the amyloid plaques, which were predominately located in the molecular layer of the cerebellar cortex of the transgenic mouse. Only a few plaques could be seen in the Purkinje cell layer and granular layer. Confocal laser microscopy revealed the DMTl and Aβ were co-localized in senile plaques. Conclusion The abundant expression of DMTl protein suggests that DMTl and the divalent metal ions that it transports might be involved in the formation of Aβ senile plaques and other pathological processes in the cerebellum in Alzheimer' s disease.

Objective:To evaluate the optimized effect of erector spinae plane block (ESPB) combined with general anesthesia when used for the patients undergoing laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods:Sixty-eight American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅱ orⅢ patients of both sexes, aged 18-64 yr, with body mass index of 18-24 kg/m 2, scheduled for elective laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy, were divided into general anesthesia group (group G, n=34) and ESPB combined with general anesthesia group (group EG, n=34) using a random number table method.In group E, ultrasound-guided ESPB was performed before induction with general anesthesia, and 0.375% ropivacaine 20 ml was injected into both sides.Total intravenous anesthesia was applied in both groups.Patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) with sufentanil 1.5 g/kg in 100 ml of normal saline was performed after surgery.The PCIA pump was set up to deliver a 2 ml bolus dose with a 5-min lockout interval and background infusion at 3 ml/h.Analgesia was performed until 24 h after operation, and the visual analogue scale score at rest was maintained at ≤4.Sufentanil 0.1 g/kg was intravenously injected as rescue analgesic when visual analogue scale score >4.The extubation time and occurrence of intraoperative cardiovascular events were recorded.The amount of sufentanil used during operation and within 24 h after operation was recorded.The time to first pressing the analgesia pump after operation and effective pressing times of PCA within 24 h after operation were recorded.Time to first flatus, first ambulation time and length of postoperative hospital stay were recorded.The development of postoperative adverse reactions such as nausea and vomiting, irritability and respiratory depression within 24 h after operation was recorded. Results:Compared with group G, the incidence of intraoperative hypertension and tachycardia was significantly decreased, the extubation time was shortened, the consumption of sufentanil during operation and within 24 h after operation was reduced, the time to first pressing the analgesia pump was prolonged, the effective pressing times of PCA within 24 h after operation were reduced, time to first flatus, first ambulation time and length of postoperative hospital stay were shortened, and the incidence of nausea and vomiting, irritability and respiratory depression within 24 h after operation was decreased in group EG ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The combination of ESPB and general anesthesia is helpful in achieving an anesthesia mode of lower opioid consumption and more helpful for inhibition of postoperative pain responses and for early postoperative recovery than general anesthesia alone when used for the patients undergoing laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy.

In the face of the worldwide threat of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) to human life, some of the most urgent challenges are to develop fast and accurate analytical methods for early diagnosis of this disease as well as to create a safe anti-viral vaccine for prevention. To these ends, we investigated the antigenicity of the spike protein (S protein), a major structural protein in the SARS-coronavirus (SARS-CoV). Based upon the theoretical analysis for hydrophobicity of the S protein, 18 peptides were synthesized. Using Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA), these peptides were screened in the sera from SARS patients. According to these results, two fragments of the S gene were amplified by PCR and cloned into pET-32a. Both S fragments were expressed in the BL-21 strain and further purified with an affinity chromatography. These recombinant S fragments were confirmed to have positive cross-reactions with SARS sera, either by Western blot or by ELISA. Our results demonstrated that the potential epitope regions were located at Codons 469-882 in the S protein, and one epitope site was located at Codons 599-620. Identification of antigenic regions in the SARS-CoV S protein may be important for the functional studies of this virus or the development of clinical diagnosis.

Objective:To explore the heterogeneity of behavioral problems and cognitive function of three subtypes of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD), and to analyze the related factors of cognitive function.Methods:The outpatients with ADHD were evaluated by Wechsler children′s intelligence test (C-WISC), SNAP-Ⅳ parental rating scale (SNAP-Ⅳ), Conners parental symptom questionnaire (PSQ) and 12 online cognitive function tests. The differences of behavioral problems and cognitive function of children with different subtypes of ADHD, and the correlation between their intelligence level, PSQ, SNAP-Ⅳ and cognitive function were compared by SPSS 22.0 software.Results:The results of PSQ questionnaire showed that ADHD-C ((1.11±0.59), (1.59±0.58), (1.62±0.50)) had higher behavior problems, impulse-hyperactivity and hyperactivity index than ADHD-I ((0.64±0.27), (1.01±0.54), (1.09±0.32)) and ADHD-HI ((0.75±0.35), (1.22±0.58), (1.05±0.38)) ( F=9.374, F=7.644, F=15.176, P<0.05), while ADHD-C (2.01±0.55) had higher learning problems than ADHD-I (1.66±0.58) and ADHD-HI (1.16±0.43) ( F=11.709, P<0.05). In terms of cognitive function, there were differences in language understanding ability, digital reasoning ability, sequence relationship and short-term memory ability ( χ2=6.734, 7.192, 7.822, 8.646, all P<0.05) among the three groups of ADHD children. ADHD-HI (4.00(4.00, 5.00), 5.00(4.25, 6.00), 5.00(4.00, 7.00)) had better language understanding ability, digital reasoning ability and sequence relationship than ADHD-I (3.00(2.00, 5.00), 3.00(2.50, 6.00), 4.00(3.00, 5.50)). The short-term memory ability of ADHD-HI (5.00(4.00, 6.00)) and ADHD-C (5.00(4.00, 6.00)) were better than that of ADHD-I (4.00(3.00, 5.00)). The intellectual structure of ADHD children was positively correlated with spatial cognitive ability, sequential relationship, Raven reasoning test, short term memory span and Wisconsin card sorting test ( r=0.25-0.57, all P<0.05). Children′s learning problems and psychosomatic problems were negatively correlated with their digital comprehension ability ( r=-0.26, -0.25, both P<0.05). Conclusion:The behavioral problems and cognitive function of children with different subtypes of ADHD are different and have a certain correlation.
