Objective To explore the clinico-pathological characteristics of primary breast lymphoma(PBL).Methods The clinical data of 36 cases of PBL were analyzed retrospectively.Results Among the 36 cases of PBL,16 patients presented with stage Ⅰa disease,14 patients with stage IIa disease,2 patients with stageⅡb disease,and 4 patients with stage Ⅳ.All of the patients underwent surgery and chemotherapy,and 20 cases had radiotherapy.Thirty three patients(91.7%) were followed up for 3-193 months,during which time,12 patients died,including 2 patients died of brain metastases,five patients died of bone metastasis,and five patients died of diffuse hepatic and pulmonary metastasis.In the 21 surviving patients,the survival time was 3～192 months,and the median survival time was 43.5 months.The overall 3-and 5-year survival rate was 70.1% and 49.0%,respectively.Conclusions Most PBL are NHL.PBL is diagnosed basically by methods of pathology and immunohistochemistry,and operation combined with chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy is the best treatment method.

Objective To investigate effect of low molecular weight heparin (LMWH)on oxidative stress and renal function in elderly patients undergoing gastrectomy of stomach neoplasms. Methods 90 elderly patients undergoing radical surgery were randomly divided into LMWH group (Ⅰ group,n=45)and control group (Ⅱ group,n=45). Patients inⅠ group received a subcutaneous injection of LMWH(100 u/kg,1/d)from the time before anesthesia induction to postoperative 5 days,and patients in Ⅱ group were given equal volume of saline. Venous blood samples were collected to determine level of malondialdehyde(MDA),aldose reductase(AR)activity level,superoxide dismutase(SOD)activity level,catalase (CAT)activity level,creatinine(Cr)and blood urea nitrogen(BUN)before anesthesia induction(T0 ),at the end of the surgery(T1 ),on postoperative 1 day(T2),3 days(T3)and 5 days(T4)respectively;urine specimen were also collected to measured albumin(Alb)and N-acetyl-beta-D-amino glycosidase enzymes(NAG)at the same time points. Results There were obvious statistical differences in MDA,AR,SOD and CAT at different time points by intra-group comparison (P<0.05 ). MDA and AR rose first and then fell in two groups,and both reached the peak at T2 ,whereas SOD and CAT had the opposite trends. There were obvious statistical differences in MDA,AR,SOD and CAT at T1 ~T3 (P<0.05 ). MDA and AR inⅠgroup at T1 ,T2 and T3 was lower than those in groupⅡ(P<0.05 ),whereas SOD and CAT inⅠgroup at T1 ,T2 and T3 were significantly higher than those in group Ⅱ(P<0.05). Cr and BUN of both groups were found no significant statistical difference within the group and between groups(P>0.05).Alb/Cr of both groups at T1 and T2 were significantly higher than those at T0 (P<0.05 ),while Alb/Cr in Ⅰ group at T1 was obviously lower than Ⅱgroup(P<0.05 ).NAG/Cr in both groups at T1 ,T2 and T3 were significantly higher than those at T0 (P<0.05 ),while NAG/Cr inⅡ group at T4 was still higher than that at T0 (P<0.05 ),and NAG/Cr inⅠgroup at T1 ~T4 was obviously lower thanⅡgroup (P<0.05 ). MDA and AR in both groups at T1 ,T2 were positively correlated with Alb/Cr and NAG/Cr respectively(P<0.05 ),whereas SOD and CAT in both groups at T1 ,T2 were negatively correlated with Alb/Cr and NAG/Cr respectively(P<0.05 ). Conclusion Oxidative stress reaction resulted from radical surgery of elderly patients is associated with perioperative renal damage. LMWH could reduce oxidative stress in elderly patients,and alleviate the kidney damage,as well as protect the renal function.

Aim To investigate the up-regulation of miR-22 through Wnt pathway inhibits the proliferation,migration and invasion in human gastric MGC803 cells induced by diallyl disulfide(DADS).Methods The effects of proliferation,migration,and invasion of gastric cancer cells were evaluated by MTT,wound-healing and invasion assays.Online prediction software was applied to search the target gene of miR-22.Luciferase report gene assay was used to assess the target genes Wnt-1 of miR-22.The expressions of Wnt-1,β-catenin and TCF-4 were tested by qRT-PCR and Western blot,respectively.Results MTT showed that DADS and miR-22 notably decreased the proliferation compared with control group(P<0.05).Wound-healing assay showed that DADS and miR-22 could significantly inhibit the migration of MGC803 cells compared with the control group, especially in miR-22+DADS(P<0.05). Invasion assay showed that DADS and miR-22 could markedly inhibit the invasion of MGC803 cells compared with the control group, especially in miR-22+DADS(P<0.05). Online prediction software to search the target gene exhibited that Wnt-1 may be a target gene of miR-22. Luciferase report gene assay disclosed that Wnt-1 was identified as a direct target of miR-22. Qrt-PCR showed that the expression of Wnt-1 Mrna was respectively down-regulated by DADS and miR-22 compared withcontrol group, especially in miR-22+DADS(P<0.05). Western blot exhibited that DADS and miR-22 obviously suppressed the expressions of Wnt-1, β-catenin and TCF-4 proteins, especially in miR-22+DADS(P<0.05).Conclusion Up-regulation of miR-22 through Wnt pathway can remarkably suppress the proliferation, migration and invasion in MGC803 cells by DADS.
