Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) is known as an endogenous immunosuppressive enzyme which plays a significant role in the process of tumor.IDO is not only found in tumor cells but also detected in dendritic cell (DC) in tumor microenvironment,which participates in the formation of tumor immune tolerance through expressing IDO enzyme.Signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) is the main signal protein family which participates in the IDO transcriptional regulation of DC.It is necessary to detail the signaling pathway in regulating IDO expression,which will help us develop high specific and more active IDO inhibitors and provide new options for anti-cancer targeted therapy.

BACKGROUND:There are numerous studies about mechanical changes of recast cobalt-chromium ceramic al oys. However, little is reported on the mechanical properties of cobalt-chromium ceramic al oys containing once-used al oys after recasts.
OBJECTIVE:To study the effects of different proportion of once-used al oys to recasting cobalt-chromium al oys on their mechanical properties, including tensile strength, yield strength, elongation and hardness.
METHODS:Cobalt-chromium al oys cast samples were prepared and recast for three times (40%once-used al oys were added per time). The tensile strength, 0.2%yield strength, percentage of elongation, flexural strength and Vickers hardness of each specimen were measured. In addition, microscopic metal ographic observation was done.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Being recast for three times, cobalt-chromiun al oys showed no significant differences on their tensile strength, 0.2%yield strength, percentage of elongation, flexural strength and Vickers hardness. GenerationⅠal oy samples had uniform size, smal diameter and smal carbide size distributing along the grain boundary, mainly exhibiting spherical and irregular wormlike forms. Generations Ⅱ and Ⅲ samples were uniform in shape, but crystal grains were coarsened a little. Carbide from Generation IV samples began to be coarsened, irregular wormlike carbides were increased in amount, and a few of non-metal ic inclusions could be found in grains. Cobalt-chromium al oys can be recast after addition of 40%once-used al oys for three times at least in air environment, without decrease of the mechanical properties.

OBJECTIVE:To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of cetuximab in the adjuvant chemotherapy treat-ment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC),and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical treatment. METH-ODS:Retrieved from Cochrane Library,PubMed,CJFD and Wanfang database,randomized controlled trials (RCT) about cetux-imab adjuvant chemotherapy (test group) versus single chemotherapy (control group) in the treatment of advanced NSCLC were collected,and Meta-analysis was performed by using Rev Man 5.2 statistical software after extracting data and evaluating quality. RESULTS:A total of 8 RCT were included,involving 2 367 patients. Results of Meta-analysis showed survival rate in 1 year [OR=1.33,95%CI(1.08,1.64),P=0.006],partial remission rate [OR=1.48,95%CI(1.23,1.78),P<0.001],total effective rate [OR=1.34,95%CI(1.19,1.51),P<0.001],incidence of leucopenia [OR=1.50,95%CI(1.23,1.83),P<0.001],incidence of rash [OR=53.26,95%CI(13.09,216.65),P<0.001] and incidence of infusion reactions [OR=3.72,95%CI(1.86,7.42),P<0.001] in test group were significantly higher than those of control group,there were significant differences in 2 groups. However,there were no significant differences in the complete remission rate [OR=1.57,95%CI(0.91,2.70),P=0.11] and incidences of other ADR(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Cetuximab has good efficacy in the adjuvant chemotherapy treatment of advanced NSCLC,however,the incidence of ADR should be prevented in clinic. Duo to the methodology limit of included studies,large-scale and high quality RCT are required for further validation of the conclusions.

Objective To investigate the association between CYP1A1 gene polymorphism and toxicities related to high-does methotrexate of childhood acute leukemia. Methods The SNPs were detected by reverse transcriptional (RT)-PCR-denaturing gradient gel elelctrphoresis combined with direct sequencing in 51 children with acute leukemia. Toxicities were collected thereby. Results Only one SNP,A4889G, was screened in CYP1A1. A4889G polymorphism was not associated with all the toxicities (P > 0.05). High-risk ALL children were more likely to increase the risk of thrombocytopenia compared with standard-risk ALL (P< 0.05). Conclusions CYP1A1 A4889G polymorphism may be not association with all toxicities after HD-MTX ,but the thrombocytopenia may be relevant to the risk degree of ALL children.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the influence of allergic rhinitis on negative emotion.
METHOD:
One hundred and ninety cases with allergic rhinitis as observer group were investigated by state-trait anxiety inventory (STAI) and self-rating depressive scale (SDS). According to pathogenetic condition, patients were divided into persistent allergic rhinitis 71 cases (A group) and intermittent allergic rhinitis 119 cases (B group). Meanwhile, 190 healthy persons as control group were compared with observer group.
RESULT:
(1) The main allergens of allergic rhinitis were dermatophagoides pteronyssinus, dermatophagoides farina, pollen, and epiphyte, which the skin index was above "++" by skin prick test. (2) The state anxiety score of observer group (42.17±16.21) was significantly higher than control group (38.78±16.54), t=2.02, P<0.05. There were no difference in trait anxiety between observer group and control group (41.25±16.16 vs. 41.19±16.84), P>0.05. The anxiety scores of female in A and B groups were higher than that of female in control group (43.77±15.76, 42.93±15.58 vs 38.44±15.71), P<0.05. (3) The score of SDS in A and B group was significantly higher than that of control group (37.78±9.22, 39.65±9.87 vs 35.24±7.81), P<0.01. The rate of depression in observer group (11.6%, 22/190) was significantly higher than that of control group (2.6%, 5/190), Χ2=11.52, P<0.01.
CONCLUSION
The allergic rhinitis may cause patients anxiety and depression, especially for female, but patients with allergic rhinitis have no significant trait anxiety.
