1.Research progress of Alectinib in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer
Practical Oncology Journal 2016;30(1):75-79
Recently,targeted therapy plays an important role in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer.Crizotinib,the first generation of anaplastic lymphoma kinase( ALK) tyrosine kinase inhibitor,has been ap-proved for the treatment of ALK-rearranged NSCLC in the US since 2011.However,the crizotinib therapy is ef-fective only in the early stage of treatment.After a long time treatment,therapy resistance will follow because of the emerging second mutation of the tumor cell.In recent years,as the second generation of anaplastic lymphoma kinase tyrosine kinase inhibitor, alectinib has been approved in Japan for the treatment of ALK -rearranged NSCLC patients.Thus,research progress of Alectinib for NSCLC therapy is summarized in this article.

The DNA copy-number variant (CNV) is a kind of segments of DNA ranging from 1 kb to 3 Mb that is present in a variable number of copies.CNVs widely distribute across the human genome,and dramatically increases genetic diversity.In recent years,researches have found that most CNVs are closely related to complex diseases.If a cancer gene is directly encompassed or overlapped by a CNV,it may lead to activation of oncogenes or inactivation of tumor suppressor genes,and finally results in tumorigenesis.CNVs can affect gene expression,phenotype differences and phenotypic adaptations by changing gene dosages and gene activities,and then sequentially lead to tumor or any other genetic dieases.Investigating CNVs is apparently helpful for studing chromosome recombination,genomic evolution,gene expression and the pathogenesis of multiple complex diseases especially tumor.

Objective To observe the effects of DanShen on the growth of hepatocellular carcinoma in malignant obstructive jaundice in the SD rat model. Methods The model was established by vaccination of transplanting tumour in the porta hepatis with the walker-256 hepatocarcine line, and then obstruction was caused by the infiltration and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma. ② The SD rats were divided into four groups: the rats treated by 0.9% NS (n=12), the rats treated by Inosine + Vitamin C (n=20), the rats treated by DanShen (n=20) and the rats treated by 5-FU(n=20). ③ The liver function, morphological changes and the expression of PCNA VEGF and ICAM-1 in carcinoma and peri-carcinoma tissues, adjacent lobe (left-internal lobe) as well as lung tissues were observed after four experimental groups were successively treated by four medicines. ④ Statistical analysis was done to the experimental results. Results ① The growth of rats treated by DanShen injection showed that liver injury caused by malignant obstructive jaundice was significantly relieved compared with liver function and pathological morphological changes in other groups(P0.05); ③ The expression of PCNA VEGF and ICAM-1 in carcinoma, peri-carcinoma adjacent lobe (left-internal lobe) tissues as well as lung tissues were significantly downgraded in groups treated by DanShen injection compared with those in groups treated with 0.9%NS and Inosine combined with Vitamine C (P0.05). Conclusion DanShen injection not only has protective effects on liver injury caused by obstructive jaundice, but the medicine can inhibit the proliferation and growth of hepatocarcinoma, interfere with the vascularization of tumors, and prevent recurrence and metastasis of hepatocarcinoma.

[Objective]To investigate the method of anterior transsternal approach for the patients with upper thoracic spine diseases and the clinic results.[Method]Six cases upper thoracic spinal diseases,1 case of C7/T1 grade V dislocation,1 case of T1、2 TB,2 cases of upper thoracic tumor,1 case of T2 fracture and 1 case of T2、3 disc prolapse,were treated with the anterior transsternal approach operation since Oct.2001.The lesions areas were exposed via partial or complete sternotomy.The relative articles were reviewed.[Result]The average follow-up was 12.4 months(range from 6 to 22 months,except the died one).The case of C7/T1 grade V dislocation died of respiratory tract obstruction and one case of malignant schwannoma recurred 6 months post-operation.Good results were obtained in the other 4 cases.No operative complication happened in all cases.[Conclusion]While the transthoracic lateral approach cannot expose the upper thoracic spine clearly,the anterior cervical approach cannot expose the T2、3 clearly also.The anterior transsternal approach can provide a safe access to the lesions located on the upper thoracic spine above T4.

Objective To discuss the technical keypoints of the second-phase diaplasis treatment after Hartmann operation. Methods Twenty-one cases of the second-phase diaplasis operation of Hartmann operation in this hospital from January 2003 to December 2007 were analysed retrospectively. Results In this group, stapler technique was used in 15 cases, anastomotic ring was used in 3 cases, and one-layer suture was used in 3 cases. The time of these operations was between 118 min and 240 min (mean 164 min). Neither stomal leak nor stomal stenosis occurred, acute ileus occurred in 2 cases, and both recovered after the treatments of gastrointestinal decompression, inhibition of secretion digestive juice and reoperation. Acute retension of urine occurred in 1 case after urine catheter removed. The symptoms disappeared after excises of bladder function. These cases were followed up for 3-36 months (mean 20 months). All the patients recovered to normal function of defecation. Conclusion The technical keypoints of the second-phase diaplasis treatment after Hartmann operation are how to find and liberate the end of the distal colon. It will affect the prognosis and the occurrence of complications after this operation.

Objective To study the preventive role of lysine, proline and calcium ascorbate on experimental osteoporosis in ovariectomized rats. Methods Ninety 6-9-month-old female rats were divided randomly into 9 groups: lysine hydrochloride low dose (LL) and high dose(LH) groups, proline low dose(PL) and high dose(PH) groups, calcium ascorbate low dose(CL) and high dose(CH) groups, calcium gluconate(CG) group, model(MOD) and SHAM groups. All groups except SHAM group were bilaterally ovariectomiged. At the 4 th, 8 th, and 12 th week, blood samples were collected for biochemical examination including the levels of ACP, ALP, Ca and P. Results Compared with SHAM and MOD groups, body weight of LL group increased most. Additionally, LL and LH promoted the activity of ACP and ALP〔(2.250?1.297)U/L and (300.3?136.9)U/L,P

Objective To observe the changes of rat brain mitochondrial uncoupling protein (UCP) content and activity, and explore the effect of UCP on mitochondrial energy metabolism during hypoxia exposure. Methods Adult SD rats were set randomly into control and hypoxia group (n=8 in each group). The rats of hypoxia group were put into a hypobaric chamber simulating 5000-meter high altitude for 3 days (23 h/d). The brain mitochondria was isolated by centrifugation. Mitochondrial oxidative respiratory function was measured by Clark oxygen electrode. Mitochondrial membrane potential was detected by Rhodamine123 method. The content of adenine nucleotide pool (ATP, ADP, AMP) in mitochondria was measured by high performance liquid chromatography. UCP content and activity were detected by [~ 3 H]-GTP binding method. Results High altitude hypoxia resulted in significant increase of UCP activity and a 2.9-fold rise of UCP content of rats (P
