Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2017;44(8):390-394
Objective:To investigate the application of three-dimensional visualization technology in preoperative assessment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma. Methods:Thirty-eight patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma who underwent surgery from March 2014 to April 2016 were enrolled in the retrospective study. Among the cases, an observational group of 18 patients had preoperative three-dimensional visualization surgical planning, while a control group of 20 patients did not have the visualization surgical plan. The preoperative diagnostic results were analyzed with the actual intraoperative findings. Related surgicall indicators between the two groups were compared. Results:No significant difference in the accuracy rates of longitudinal and vertical infiltration of cholangiocarcinoma between was observed the observational group and control group. While the vascular and ductal branching pattern of all patients are consistent with intraoperative findings, the coincidence rate was higher in the observational group than that in the control group (100%vs. 70%, P<0.05). The estimated liver volumes were also exactly consistent with the actual liver volume (r=0.986, P<0.001). In comparison with the control group, the average intraoperative blood loss and operative time of the observational group were significantly lower. However, the potential curative resection between the two groups exhibited no significant difference. Conclusion:Three-dimensional visualization technology can accurately complete the preoperative evaluation of hilarcholangiocarcinoma.

AIM: To study the effects of cripto antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (ASODN) on telomerase activity in colon cancer LS-174T cells. METHODS: Colon cancer LS-174T cells were treated with cripto ASODN. The expression of cripto mRNA was studied using real-time PCR. The telomerase activity was detected by telomeric repeat amplification protocol enzyme-linked immunoabsordent assay (TRAP-ELISA). The growth of LS-174T cells was observed with soft agar. RESULTS: Cripto ASODN inhibited the growth of LS-174T cells in a dose-dependent manner in soft agar. Cripto ASODN decreased the telomerase activity in colon cancer LS-174T cells, and the effects of repression were time-and dose-dependent. CONCLUSION: Cripto may contribute to the activation of telomerase in colon cancer.

AIM: To study the effects of artemisunate on anoikis resistance in human breast cancer cells. METHODS: After breast cancer MCF-7 cells were treated with artemisunate, the growth of anchorage independence of breast cancer MCF-7 cells was examined in soft agar colony formation, and apoptosis of breast cancer were evaluated by terminal deoxynucleatidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate nick end labeling (TUNEL) and DNA ladder. RESULTS: Artemisunate significantly inhibited the growth of anchorage independence of breast cancer MCF-7 cells in soft agar colon formation in a dose-dependent manner. Artemisunate induced apoptosis in breast cancer cells was conformed by DNA ladder and TUNEL assay, which was in a time-and dose-dependent manner. CONCLUSION: Artemisunate inhibits the growth of anchorage independence of breast cancer MCF-7 cells, which is related to anoikis.

BACKGROUND: Based on a mouse model of tibial implantation, some scholars have found that the CaP-coated implant with recombinant human parathyroid hormone (1-34) (PTH(1-34)) shows strong osteogenesis effect at early stage, but this coating has not been applied in the oral environment.OBJECTIVE: To explore the role of local application of PTH(1-34) on immediate implant osseointegration . METHODS: Nine New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into two groups (six in experimental group and three in control group). All of the tooth sockets were filled with heterogeneous freeze-dried bone firstly after four incisors of each rabbit were extracted. In the experimental group, a titanium screw with PTH(1-34) loaded CaP coating was implanted into each tooth socket, while in the control group, a titanium screw with only CaP coating was implanted. The animals were executed respectively at 4, 8, 12 weeks after operation, and the intact maxillary and mandibular specimens were harvested and tested by gross observation, bone density analysis, torque test, histologic al observation, X-ray observation.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The gray value and maximum torque value of regenerated osseous tissue at different time points in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Within 4-12 weeks after implantation, regenerated and mature bone tissue appeared earlier in the experimental group than the control group. A large amount of new blood vessels were seen in the experimental group at 8 weeks after implantation, while in the control group, there were only few new blood vessels. To conclude, the local application of PTH(1-34) can promote bone formation, improve the implant-bone bonding strength, and enhance the stability of the implant.

BACKGROUND:Nanosilver has significant antibacterial properties, and nanohydroxyapatite has good biological activity and mechanical strength, while their mixture cannot only promote bone formation but also have antibacterial properties. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of nanosilver and nanohydroxyapatite mixed filing on the osseointegration of immediate implants. METHODS: Nine New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into experimental group (n=6) and control group (n=3) after four incisors from the upper and lower jaw were extracted. The mixture of nanosilver and nanohydroxyapatite was filed into the tooth socket in the experimental group, while nanohydroxyapatite was filed into the tooth socket in the control group. Titanium screw was immediately implanted into both groups. The intact maxila and mandibular specimens were harvested at the 4th, 8th, and 12th weeks after operation. Gross observation, X-ray bone density analysis, torque test and histological observation were conducted. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The gray value and maximum torque value of regenerated osseous tissue at different time points in experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Within 12 weeks of implantation, the bone formation rate and maturity of new bone tissue were higher in the experimental group compared with the control group, and no inflammatory cel infiltration occurred. At the 4th week after implantation, there was a large amount of inflammatory cel infiltration, and few inflammatory existed at the 8th week after implantation. These results demonstrate that compared with nanohydroxyapatite alone, the mixture of nanosilver and nanohydroxyapatite shows better antibacterial effect, biocompatibility and osteoinductive ability, which may accelerate osseointegration and promote osteogenesis.

? AIM: To investigate the differences between synoptophore and triple prism strabismometry and its possible cause.?METHODS: There were 347 patients with horizontal concomitant strabismus involved, in which 76 patients were esotropia, 37 patients were male while 39 were female, with average age of 13. 27 ± 7. 77 years old. There were 271 patients with exotropia, 131 cases were male while 140 were female, with average age of 15. 43 ± 8. 42 years old. All the patients were examined by synoptophore and prism plus shaded strabismometry in a long distance of 6m. Datas were analyzed by SPSS 17. 0.?RESULTS:In the exotropia patients, the conversions of circular degree(°) and prism degree(△) were:1°=0. 29△ ~1. 78△, which was statistically significant with intermittent strabismus (P=0. 001). While in the esotropia patients, the conversions were:1°=2. 01△ ~2. 15△.?CONCLUSION: The diversity between the two methods is enlarged with the increase of squint angle for exotropia patients. While in esotropia patients, the diversity decreased with the increase of squint angle. Synoptophore equipped with +7. 00D, defects of the triple prism itself and proximal convergence during exam may be the reasons for the diversity.
