Objective: To evaluate the effect of concomitant chemoradiotherapy for the prevention of recurrence and metastasis of postoperative salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma(SACC).Methods: 14 cases of salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma after operation were treated with concomitant chemoradiotherapy. Regular radiotherapy of 60 Gy and chemotherapy with hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) at 10 mg/m 2 , 3 times a week, were administered. HCPT was given in 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th week. Recurrence and metastasis of SACC after operation were observed using CT, MRI, ultrasonography and X ray. Results: After 3~17 months' follow up, relapse free survival was 100%. No recurrence and metastasis of SACC after operation were found. Adverse reactions of the chemotherapy were nausea, vomiting and leukopenia. After suspended in a short time and using ondansetron and /or G CSF the chemotherapy of HCPT was continued and completed. Conclusion: concomitant chemoradiotherapy of HCPT and radiotherapy can prevent recurrence and metastasis of SACC after operation. The efficacy of long term needs further observation.

To investigate the effects of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) on intracellular free Ca 2+ of heating injury, and observe the relationship between mitogen activated protein kinases(MAPKs)signal pathways and Ca 2+ mobilization. Cultured human fibroblasts were heated at 45?C for 10min, then divided into four groups :①basic fibroblast growth factor (10ng/ml) treatment; ②preincubated cells with PD98059 (10?mol/L) for 30 min followed by bFGF (10ng/ml); ③preincubated cells with SB203580 (10?mol/L) for 30min followed by bFGF (10ng/ml); ④preincubated cells with PD98059 (10?mol/L) and SB203580 (10?mol/L) for 30min followed by bFGF (10ng/ml). The cells were incubated with fluorescence Ca 2+ dye fluo 3/AM at 37 C for 30min, then measured by using laser scanning confocal microscope. The results showed fluorescent intensity of fibroblast heating injury was weak, the concentration of intracellular free Ca 2+ increased after stimulation with bFGF treatment. PD98059 and SB203580 could induce calcium oscillation. A rapid decrease of fluorescent intensity was observed after cells were preincubated with PD98059 and SB203580 at the same time. bFGF induced an increase of cytoplasmic and intracellular free Ca 2+ concentrations. It is suggested that MAPKs signaling pathway has a feedback regulation for free Ca 2+ mobilization.

To explore the activities of signal transduction pathway involved in heat-stressed fibroblast in vitro. Human dermal fibroblasts were cultured in Dulbecco′s modified Eagle′s medium with 5% calf serum at 5%CO 2 in a water-saturated atmosphere. Cultured cells were heated to 45℃ for 10min. Western blotting was used to detect ERK1/2 and JNK expression, and the expression of caspase-3 protein was observed by immunoflurescence technique. The results showed that the MAPKs signal transduction pathway was activated in heat-stressed fibroblasts. The expression of JNK reached the peak at 60min, then maintained up to 180min. The expression of ERKs peaked at 30min, then lowered. The expression of caspase-3 was weak at 30min after heat-stress, and became evidently strong at 60min. The signal pathway of ERKs and JNK played important roles in the changes in biologic characteristics of fibroblasts after heat-stress.

Objective To investigate the possible signaling mechanisms by which recombinant human platelet-derived growth factor (rhPDGF) accelerated healing of cutaneous wound in diabetic rats. Methods Four full-thickness skin wounds were incised in the back of 26 male Wistar diabetic rats. The wounded rats were divided into 3 groups (7 or 8 rats each group). One group without treatment was used as a control, and the other 2 groups were treated with rhPDGF at a dose of 7.0 μg/cm2 wound or vehicle ( DMSO/0.9%NaCl, vol/vol 1:1) from 1 to 14 days. The wound healing was evaluated by the measurements of the wound volume and area. Immunofluorescent and immunohistochemical staining were used to examine the phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2(ERK1/2) and the expression of proliferative cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), respectively. Results Granulation tissue appeared in the bed of wound after injury. The number of blood capillary buds and fibroblasts was greater in the rhPDGF-treated group than that in the other 2 groups. A lot of inflammatory cells infiltration and collagen deposition were observed in the wound. The wound-volume in the rhPDGF-treated group was smaller than that in control group ( P < 0.05). The reepithelialization rate in rhPDGF-treated group was higher than that in the other 2 groups at 7 days after injury ( P < 0.05). The expression of PCNA in reparative cells was higher in rhPDGF-treated group than in control group or vehicle-treated group at 3,7 days after injury( P < 0.05). The phosphorylation of ERK1/2 was stronger in rhPDGF-treated group than that in control group or vehicle group at 7 and 14 days after injury( P < 0.05). Conclusion These results suggest that rhPDGF accelerates wound healing and improves healing quality by increasing the phosphorylation of ERK1/2.
