Objective To study the expression of O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) and its clinicopathological significance in thyroid cancer.Methods Immunohistochemistry was used to determine the expression of MGMT in 61 thyroid cancer tissues, 21 thyroid adenomas, 15 Hashimoto's thyroiditis, 8 nodular goiter, and 12 peri-tumor tissues. Results There was statistic difference in the expression of MGMT between the normal tissues and thyroid cancers (P＜0.05). Expression of MGMT increased from the normal tissue (16.67%, 10/12), nodular goiter (25.00%, 2/8), Hashimoto's thyroiditis (60.00%, 9/15), and thyroid adenoma (52.38%, 11/21)to thyroid cancer (60.66%, 38/61). Expression of MGMT in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) and follicular thyroid cancer (FTC) had significant difference (P＜0.05), and the expression level of MGMT decreased with the malignancy of thyroid cancer, such as in PTC (72.22%, 26/36), and FTC (50.00%, 8/16). There was no statistic difference in MGMT expression in sex, age, and nationality (P＞0.05).Conclusion High expression of MGMT might be related to the malignancy of thyroid cancer, which may be one of the diagnosis indexes for thyroid cancer. It will be a common clinical index in diagnosingthyroid cancer since there is no difference in MGMT expression among sexes, ages, and nationalities.

Objective To investigate the effect of melatonin on oxidative stress and inflammatory reaction in patients with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and to explore its mechanisms. Methods 42 patients with moderate to severity chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in stable stage were random-ly divided into melatonin group and control group,and 21 patients in each group treated with melatonin(3 mg/d) or placebo for 3 months respectively. The plasma levels of 8- isoprotane,IL-8,TNF-α,h-CRP pulmonary func-tion,six minutes walking test and MRC dyspnea score before treatment,2 months and 3 months after the treatment were analyzed. Results After 2 months of treatment,compared to placebo groups,melatonin could significantly decrease the concentration of 8-isoprotane(10.40 ± 5.4 vs. 16.92 ± 4.33,P<0.05),and the concentration of IL-8 (6.88 ± 2.37 vs. 11.33 ± 3.39,P < 0.05). After 3 months of treatment,compared to placebo groups,melatonin could significantly decrease the concentration of 8-isoprotane(9.40 ± 4.0 vs. 17.92 ± 3.33,P < 0.01),and IL-8 (5.67 ± 3.22 vs. 9.31 ± 3.23,P < 0.05). Compared with before treatment,melatonin could significantly de-creased the concentration of 8-isoprotane(9.40 ± 4.0 vs. 20.40 ± 8.4,P<0.01 )and IL-8(5.67 ± 3.22 vs. 12.33 ± 3.88,P<0.05)after 3 months. Meanwhile,the concentration of the TNF-α(25.83 ± 9.18 vs. 35.83 ± 12.18,P<0.05)and hypersensitive C(1.76 ± 1.18 vs. 3.09 ± 1.79,P < 0.05)reactive protein in the melatonin group was greatly lower than the placebo group. After 3 months,compared to the placebo group,MRC dyspnea score of pa-tients in the group of melatonin was improved significantly(1.56 ± 1.38 vs. 2.09 ± 1.16,P<0.05 ),and lung func-tion and six minutes walk test showed no significant difference between patients in the two groups. Conclusions Exogenous melatonin administration can decrease the concentration of 8-isoprotane,IL-8,TNF-αand h-CRP in the blood of patients with moderate to severe COPD ,and improve the MRC dyspnea score. Melatonin has a significant effect on reducing oxidative stress and inhibiting inflammatory reaction in patients with moderate and severe stage stable COPD,which demonstrates its potential therapeutic value with broad clinical application prospects.
