Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common malignant lymphoma in China,which mostly starting from the lymph nodes.The studies find that the expression of NLRC5,member of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor (NLR) family,is evident in the lymphoid cells,which is likely to be an important basis for lymphocyte tumorigenesis.NLRC5 can block the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB),a core component of signal transduction pathway,and affect the development of tumor.While continuing activation of NF-κB is a necessary condition for DLBCL cell survival.Therefore,NLRC5 is likely to inhibit excessive inflammation,thereby inhibiting the function of DLBCL,which promises to be a new target for immunotherapy treatment of DLBCL.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effects of intra-lamellar orbicularis dissecting micro-traumatic double eyelid surgery for the treatment of adolescent upper eyelid trichiasis. Methods Three cutaneous micro-incisions following intra- and sub-lamellar orbicularis dissections were performed and the deep orbieularis and suborbicularis fat pad between the intended eyelid crease and 1 mm above the eyelid margin were resected. The subcutaneous orbicularis was fixed to the exposed levator aponeurosis at the medial, center and lateral regions. For the quantitative analysis, the entire eyelid margins' eyelashes were equally divided into three sections and the eyelashes lift-up angle (LA), the body curl-up angle (BC) and the end curl-up angle (EC) were compared before and after surgery in each section, respectively. Results One hundred and fourteen eyes of 57 cases were followed up during 24-30 months. Compared to the LA before surgery and 2 years after surgery, it was changed from (26.37±9.67)° to (55.42± 10.03)° in section Ⅰ , and from (22.03±11.64)° to (50.03±10.02)° in section Ⅱ , and from (25.31±8.01)° to (64.05±8.33)° in section Ⅲ. There were no significant changes of BC and EC during following-up. Con-clusions For the adolescent upper eyelid trichiasis, the intra-lamellar orbicularis dissecting micro-trau-matic double eyelid surgery could acquire satisfactory aesthetic appearance and stable eyelashes'position at the same time.

BACKGROUND:Comeal graft endothelial cell density may decline spontaneously at a super-physiological speed after penetrating keratoplasty (PKP),even if no corneal rejection happens,and this is chronic corneal allograff dysfunction (CCAD).OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of topical corticosteroid treatment on chronic corneal allograft dysfunction after PKP.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:A controlled clinical analysis was performed at the Department of Ophthalmology,Tongji Hospital,Tongji University from May 2004 to May 2009.PARTICIPANTS:A total of 54 patients (eyes) who underwent PKP were included in this study.METHODS:Tobramycin-dexamethasone eyedrops was applied 6 times per day as an initial dosage and tapered during 4 months.Thereafter,drug withdrawal group and long term group were randomly divided.Treatments were ceased in the drug withdrawal group but were continued in the long-term group with a dosage of twice per day till 12 months after surgery.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Corneal graft endothelial cell density was followed up.The mean follow up pedod was 3.12±0.28years.RESULTS:The corneal graft endothelial cell density of drug withdrawal and long term groups was dramatically declined within 36 months after PKP.At every time point,the endothelial cell density was significantly decreased compared to the last follow up (all P＜0.01 ).The endothelial cell density was decreased from (2 428±2.11) cells/mm~2 and (2 791±2.29) cells/mm~2 to (1 424±124) cells/mm~2 and (1 614±114) cells/mm~2 in the drug withdrawal and long-term groups,respectively.There was significant difference in endothelial cell density between the two groups no matter prior to surgery or at each time points after surgery,but the declination trends of two groups were basically the same,indicating that graft loss of endothelial cell density was not impacted by topical corticosteroid treatment after PKP (P＞0.05).CONCLUSION:Chronic corneal allograft dysfunction after PKP is independent of topical corticosteroid treatment.

In order to investigate the effects of phenylalanine, tyrosine and tyramine on the growth of Lycoris radiata suspension cells and the accumulation of alkaloids, the growth quantity of the cells as well as the content of alkaloids in cells were determined, which were treated with above three kinds of precursors alone and phenylalanine combined with tyrosine respectively. The results indicate that the addition of phenylalanine alone and addition of phenylalanine on the basis of tyrosine at high concentration (200 micromol/L) had no significant effect on the growth of Lycoris radiata suspension cells and the content of alkaloids in cells; whereas tyrosine and tyramine promoted the growth of the cells and alkaloids accumulation. Treated with tyrosine at high concentration (200 micromol/L), the content of alkaloids of the cells was 2.56-fold higher than that of the control group, the amounts of lycoramine (3.77 mg/g) and galanthamine (4.46 mg/g) were 6.61-fold and 6.97-fold higher than that of the control group, respectively. When treated with tyramine (200 micromol/L), the amount of alkaloids in Lycoris radiata suspension cells was 2.63-fold higher than that of the control group, and the amounts of lycoramine (4.45 mg/g) and galanthamine (5.14 mg/g) were 9.08-fold and 9.18-fold higher than that of the control group, respectively. The above results demonstrate that adding tyrosine and tyramine in the media significantly promoted the growth of the Lycoris radiata suspension cells and alkaloids accumulation in the cells.

Objetcvi e Inhibitor of growth TNG3 is a candidate tumor suppressor gene ,which belongs to the human ING gene family .It has been interested by scientist because of its putative roles as tumor suppressors . There is a low expression level of ING3 in a variety of tumors.However,the relationship of ING3 and the develop-ment of colorectal cancer is unclear yet .The aim of this studyis to examine the expression of ING 3 in colorectal cancer by qRT-PCR.Methods Statistical analysis was performed with the expression of ING 3 mRNA which has been evaluated in 82 matched samples comprising primary colorectal cancer and paired non -cancerous mu-cosa samples.Results In 51%colorectal cancer patients ,the expression level of ING3 was significantly lower in cancer tissue than that in normal tissue .The expression level of ING3 was closely related to pT、pM stage , and TNM stage(P<0.05).The Univariate analysis showed that the pT、pN、pM stage,TNMstage and ING3 expression levels were associated with disease -free survival(P<0.05).CRC patients with low -expression level of ING3 showed shorter disease -free survivals(P<0.05).Conclusion The expression of ING3 might contribute to the CRC development or progression .

Objective:To analyze the clinicopathological features, treatment and prognosis of Epstein -Barr virus(EBV) positive diffuse large B cell lymphoma(DLBCL) in children, so as to improve the knowledge of pediatricians on this disease.Methods:The data of 6 cases of EBV positive DLBCL who were initially diagnosed and regularly treated in Beijing Children′s Hospital from January 2016 to December 2019 were collected, including basic information (gender, age, first symptom, and course of disease), pathological results [immunohistochemistry, EBV encoded RNA(EBER), latent membrane protein(LMP), and C- MYC gene], immune function, EBV index, treatment group, treatment plan and prognosis. Results:There were 4 males and 2 females, with the average age of 6.67 years.The uric acid was 266.2 μmol/L, lactic dehydrogenase(LDH) was 346.5 U/L at early stage, and 1 patient had immunodeficiency.The immune function test before chemotherapy indicated that the proportion of auxiliary T cells decreased in 4 cases, and the humoral immune function was normal in all patients.There was no evidence of recent infection in 6 patients, and EBV-DNA increased in 3 patients.There were 2 cases of stage Ⅲ, 4 cases of stage Ⅳ, 1 case of giant tumor, 2 cases of symptom B, 6 cases of extranodal invasion, 4 cases of central invasion and 1 case of bone marrow invasion.Three patients died and three survived.Immunohistochemistry showed that: (1) CD 19, CD 20, and CD 79a were expressed in all patients, and CD 30 was expressed in 5 patients.(2) C- MYC gene was detected by immunofluorescence in situ hybridization method in all patients, and no MYC break, Bcl-2 and Bcl-6 break and amplification were found.(3) EBV: EBER and LMP-1 were expressed in all patients. Conclusions:The pathological changes of EBV positive DLBCL are similar to those adults.The origin of non-germinal center and extranodal and central invasion are more common.The prognosis of the patients with central nervous system invasion is very poor, and the recurrence and progress of the disease often occur in the treatment or in the early stage of drug withdrawal.At present, there is no effective and feasible treatment plan.It is suggested that the patients in the late stage should receive allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation as soon as possible after intensive treatment, so as to improve the survival rate.

Objective To study the asymmetry of the soft tissue thickness of upper eyelids in Shanghai female undergraduates undergoing double eyelid surgery.Methods Data were collected in 565 female students from Shanghai universities.Before surgery,oblique sagittal view images of the upper eyelids by 3.0T MRI were obtained and the following parameters were measured: soft tissue thickness at upper tarsal plate margin and upper central tarsal plate,sub-eyebrow and intra-orbital septum fat pad areas,and whole upper eyelid soft tissue areas.The resected orbicularis and intra-orbital septum fat were weighed by a highly accurated electronic balance.The eyelid asymmetry index (EAI) was calculated.Results The MRI (U/U2) central tarsal plate soft tissue thickness were:4.46±0.90 in the right side and 3.78±1.01 in the left; the intra orbital septum fat areas were:172.33±49.29 in the right and 136.34±37.42 in the left; the whole tissue areas were: 697.13±146.99 in the right and 500.66±158.87 in the left (P＜0.01 for all).The weight of the resected orbicularis oculi muscle and intra orbital septum fat pad were (0.18±0.05) g and (0.17±0.06) g for the right side,and (0.15±0.04) g and (0.06±0.05) g for the left side (P＜0.01 for all),respec tively.The orbicularis EAI was 0.17±0.06,and the intra orbital septum fat EAI was 0.41 ±0.08.Conclusions The asymmetric phenomenon of the upper eyelids' soft tissue thickness is commonly found in the Shanghai female undergraduates,and the main manifestation is that orbicularis and intra orbital septum fat in right side are thicker than that in the left.
