Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of breast carcinosarcoma.Methods Clinical data of 37 breast carcinosarcoma patients treated at Tianjin Cancer Hospital from 1974 to 2014 was analyzed retrospectively.Kaplan-Meier unvariate analysis was used to calculate the survival rate and compare the survival rates.Multivariate factors for survival were analyzed by COX proportional hazards regression model.Results 37 cases of breast carcinosarcoma were all female.The median age was 55 years.Among them 31 cases complained for painless mass,six cases had breast mass with skin ulceration.21 cases were three-negative breast cancer.Ten cases had axillary lymph node metastasis,ten cases had distant metastasis.The 5-year survival rate was 62.3%.Unvariate analysis showed that axillary lymphnodes metastasis (P =0.045) and therapeutic schedule (P =0.016) significantly influenced the oulcome of the patients.COX multivariate analysis validated that the therapy modality was an independent prognostic factor for breast carcinosarcoma(P =0.041).Conclusions Breast carcinosarcoma is rare and has a poor prognosis.ER,PR and HER-2 expressions in most cases are negative.If there is axillary lymph node metastasis,the prognosis is poor.A reasonable and comprehensive treatment can improve the prognosis.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and side effects of extensive regional field radiotherapy concurrent with chemotherapy for locally advanced esophageal cancer.Methods Of the 101 patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer patients,44 patients were treated by involved field radiotherapy alone,29 patients treated by involved field radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy,and 28 patients received extensive regional field radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy,the total dose of radiotherapy was 60 Gy.The clinical target volume (CTV) of involved field included the gross tumor volume (GTV) plus a 0.8 cm lateral margin,the tumor plus a nominal 3-5 cm cephalad and caudal margin.Extensive regional field radiotherapy was delivered in two steps:the CTV included the CTV of the involved field plus elective nodal region in the first step;in the second step,the CTV definition was same with the CTV of the involved field.Synchronous chemotherapy regimens included TP and NP.Results 90.1%patients completed planned radiotherapy,all patients in the concurrent chemotherapy groups completed at least one cycle of chemotherapy.The follow-up rate was 99%.Twenty-four and 42 patients completed followed-up more than 24 months in the radiotherapy alone and concurrent chemoradiotherapy group,respectively.The median survival time of the involved field radiotherapy group,involved field chemoradiotherapy group and extensive regional field chemoradiotherapy group was 13,21 and 19 months,respectively;the 2-year overall survival (OS) rate was 15%,48% and 46%,respectively for the three groups.The 2-year OS rate was improved significantly in the chemoradiotherapy group (x2 =6.83,P =0.033).Compared with radiotherapy alone group,the incidence of grade three or four bone marrow suppression was higher in the concurrent chemoradiotherapy group (53%: 0 %,x2 =32.94,P =0.000),the remaining adverse events (acute radiation pneumonitis,acute radiation esophagitis,esophageal fibrosis,late radiation lung injury) had no significant intergroup differences (x2 =5.56,6.70,2.39,0.42,P =0.235,0.349,0.881,0.981).Conclusions Compared with radiotherapy alone,concurrent chemoradiotherapy can improve the survival rate for locally advanced esophageal cancer.The side effects of the extensive regional field radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy is well tolerated.But the efficacy of the extensive regional field radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy needs further research.

Objective:To investigate the method of determining oral implantation sites based on an anatomical model of mandibular premolar area of a Beagle dog.Methods:This study was performed in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University between January 2019 and October 2020. Mandibular anatomical structure and measurement data were compared between before and after removal of premolar teeth to determine safe implantation areas and oral implantation sites.Results:Among all mandibular premolars, the roots of the 1 st to 4 th premolars (P1-P4) gradually increased. The diameter of the mesial roots of the double root teeth P2, P3, and P4 was (2.72 ± 0.45) mm, (3.22 ± 0.32) mm, (4.16 ± 0.34) mm, respectively, which was significantly shorter than those in the distal roots [P2: (2.98 ± 0.29) mm, P3: (3.48 ± 0.27) mm, P4: (4.58 ± 0.22) mm]. The length of distal roots P2, P3 and P4 was (8.79 ± 0.41) mm, (9.21 ± 0.31) mm, (10.12 ± 0.36) mm), respectively, which was significantly shorter than that of mesial root [P2: (8.91 ± 0.69) mm, P3: (9.48 ± 0.27) mm, P4: (11.58 ± 0.24) mm]. Among all mandibles, the distance (H) from the mental foramen to the first molar and the width (W) of the alveolar crest increased successively [H1: (7.24 ± 0.49) mm, H2: (8.28 ± 0.71) mm, H3: (9.52 ± 0.37) mm, W1: (5.71 ± 0.81) mm, W2: (5.82 ± 0.28) mm, W3: (6.72 ± 0.54) mm]. Conclusion:The mental foramen and the distal part outside the canine apical area are safe implantation areas. In the safe implantation area, the length and diameter of the implant prosthesis do not exceed the root length in the implantation area and the maximum diameter in the buccal lingual direction.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of total flavonoids of Salvia divinorum extract against acetaminophen(APAP)-induced acute liver injury(ALI)and its molecular mechanism.Methods The main chemical constituents of total flavonoids of Salvia divinorum were obtained through literature search,and their pharmacological mechanisms were predicted using bioinformatics analysis.In a mouse model of APAP-induced ALI,the protective effects of 100,200 and 400 mg/kg total flavonoids of Salvia miltiorrhiza and 150 mg/kg bifidus were evaluated by observing changes in blood biochemistry and liver histopathology and detecting expressions of the key proteins in the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.Results Network pharmacology analysis suggested that the main active components in total flavonoids of Salvia divinorum for regulating APAP-induced liver injury included quercetin,lignocerol,caruric acid,and kaempferol,for which GO function enrichment analysis yielded 632 GO entries,including 472 involving biological processes,42 involving cellular composition,and 118 involving molecular function.KEGG enrichment analysis showed that the total flavonoids of Salvia divinorum regulated APAP-induced liver injury mainly through ferroptosis-related signaling pathway.In mice with APAP-induced ALI,treatment with the total flavonoids significantly lowered ALT and AST levels,improved liver histopathology and inflammatory cell infiltration,reduced iron deposition in liver tissues,improved lipid peroxidation-related indexes,promoted the expressions of Nrf2,HO-1,SLC7A11,and GPX-4 proteins,and inhibited the expression of keap1 protein.Conclusion The total flavonoids of Salvia divinorum alleviate APAP-induced ALI in mice possibly by suppressing hepatocyte ferroptosis via activating the Nrf2/SLC7A11/GPX-4 signaling pathway.

Protein A and protein G are two well-defined immunoglobulin (Ig)-binding proteins (IBPs), which show affinity for specific sites on Ig of mammalian hosts. Protein A and protein G contained several highly homologous IgG-binding domains which had been demonstrated to have function to bind to IgG. Whether combinations of Ig-binding domains of various IBPs could produce useful novel binding properties remains interesting. We constructed a combinatorial phage library which displayed randomly-rearranged A, B, C, D and E domains of protein A, B2 and B3 domains of protein G. Four rounds molecular evolution of this library directed by all four human IgG subclasses respectively generated a common arrangement of D-C respectively which didn't exist in SpA. The dynamic loss of control phages and increase of the phages displaying two or more binding domains, especially the selective enrichment of D-C and strict selection of its linking peptides demonstrated the efficient molecular evolutions and the significance of the selected D-C arrangement. The phage binding assays confirmed that D-C possessed a binding advantage with four human IgG subclasses compared to SpA. In this work, a novel combination of Ig-binding domains, D-C, was obtained and presented the novel Ig binding properties which provided a novel candidate molecule for the purification, production and detection of IgG antibodies and a new approach for the further study of structures and functions of IBPs.
