Background and purpose:The expression of ERβin triple negative breast cancer(TNBC) might be associated with good prognosis in TNBC patients. ERβand ERαhave considerable homology. FOXA1 plays an important role in ERαexpression and function. The aim of this study was to analyze the expression of FOXA1 and ERβin TNBC and the relationship between them and the clinicopathologic characteristics and prognosis. Methods:The breast cancer samples in Peking Union Medical College Hospital were collected from Nov. in 2011 to Dec. in 2013, and TNBC were screened out based on the expression of ERα, PR and HER-2. Thirty ERβ-negative samples and 30 ERβ-positive samples were selected randomly according to the ERβexpression. We used immunohistochemical method to detect the expression of FOXA1. Finally, 48 TNBC samples were obtained to analyze the results. Results:The total positive rate of FOXA1 was 35.4%(17/48). In the ERβ-positive group, the positive rate of FOXA1 was 35.7%(10/28),and in the ERβ-negative group, the positive rate of FOXA1 was 35% (7/20). The expression of FOXA1 in these 2 groups had no signiifcant difference (P=0.83), which indicated that there was no relation between ERβand FOXA1. The FOXA1 positive group and FOXA1 negative group also showed no signiifcant difference in age, tumor size, and lymphatic metastasis number in axilla, tumor grade, tumor stage, NPI and DFS. However, Ki-67 showed negative correlation with FOXA1 expression (P<0.01). Conclusion:FOXA1 expression had no relationship with ERβexpression in TNBC. Ki-67 showed negative correlation with FOXA1 expression, which might hint that the proliferation of tumor cell was lower in FOXA1 positive TNBC.

BACKGROUND:Sirius red is a strong acid anionic dye. Being not-easyto-fade and specific, sirius red becomes the best dye for collagen staining.Collagen is a major component of extracellular matrix and has some specific physiological functions. Through synthesis and reconstruction of collagen, bone fracture repair will be accomplished.OBJECTIVE: Picric acid-Sirius red stained slides were observed under a polarized light microscopy for evaluation the dynamic changes in the ratio of different collagen types and their distributions in bone fracture healing.DESIGN: It was a controlled observation.SETTING: It was conducted in the Department of Orthopedics, Renmin Hospital, Wuhan University; Department of Traumatic Orthopaedics, Tianjin Hospital; Department of Traumatic Orthopaedics, Jishuitan Hospital,Medical Department, Peking University; Tissue Engineering Center of Institute of Basic Medical Sciences, Academy of Military Medical Sciences of Chinese PLAMATERIALS: It was conducted at Tissue Engineering Center of Institute of Basic Medical Sciences, Academy of Military Medical Sciences of Chinese PLA from March 2002 to September 2003. Three healthy adult Chinese sheep, male and in weight from 25 to 35 g, were selected.METHODS: All the animals were anesthesized and sterilized; a transverse osteotomy of the trunk of metatarsus was performed; and the end of fracture was fixed with a six-hole Medoff sliding plate. At the post-operative month 1, 3 and 6, samples were taken from bone fractures. After decalcification with EDTA, they were stained with Picric acid-sirius red, and the types and distribution of collagens were observed under a polarized light microscopy.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Types and distributions of collagens in bone lesion in different period of bone healing were investigated.RESULTS: Three sheep used in this study entered the statistical analysis.①Morphological features of various collagens under a polarized light microscopy postoperatively: Type Ⅰ collagen packed tightly, with a strong refraction and yellow, orange or red thick fibres. Type Ⅱ collagen formed a loose reticulation with fibres exhibiting different colour and a weak refraction. Thin fibres of type Ⅲ collagen with weak refraction and green colour formed a loose reticulation. ②Quantitative studies on various collagens under a polarized light microscopy postoperatively: At postoperative month 1,red or orange fibres (type Ⅰ collagen) were rarely seen in bone fracture,while green fibres (typical of type Ⅲ collagen) were dominant with a disorder pack. At postoperative month 3, red or orange fibres increased significantly and the ratio of type Ⅲ collagen reduced. The collagen fibres assembled regularly. At postoperative month 6, thick yellow-red collagen became dominant and thin green type Ⅲ collagen decreased dramatically and arranged in an obvious oblique, spiral and crossed orientations.CONCLUSION: Picric acid-sirius red stain combined with polarized light microscopy technique is not only capable of identifing type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ collagens in bone fraction, but also can reflect the morphological features,distribution and the ratio of these two type collagens. This approach has the virtues of easiness in operation, strong specificity and high sensitivity.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and clinical feasibility of the computer-assisted full plan- ning system for tibial fracture treatment with intramedullary nailing.Methods After analyzing the functional structure and operative procedures of the system,nine plastic tibia and 12 cadaver lower limbs were used for image mosaicing based on C-arm (PHILIPS BV Libra) fluoroscopic images in the operation room to assess the correctness of the mosaicing and planning algorithms.The plastic tibial model was used for analysis of the mosaicing precision.The cadaver tibial bone was used for reduction experiment with the reduction mechanism to analyze the operation feasi- bility.Results Only 7 to 10 [fluoroscopy time:(19.75?0.61)s] valid C-ann projection images were needed to produce a long bone panorama of the lower limb.The total time for image acquisition and mosaicing was within (4.17?0.86)minutes and the mosaicing precision in the plastic tibial model was (1.26?0.76)mm.The opera- tion of the reduction mechanism was very simple and could be controlled by a surgeon automatically or free of hand. An integrated reduction strategy could be produced for rough positioning in general and elaborate operations in de- tails.Conclusion The computer-assisted full planning system can be used for anatomical analysis based on the C-arm panorama,full surgical planning,virtual simulation,selection of proper intramedullary nails and fracture reduction in treatment of long bone fractures.
