The FOXO gene, which is a member of the Forkhead box (Fox) gene family, is found in drosophila and is widespread in the eukaryotes of many organisms, including yeast and mammals. This gene transcripts the FOXO protein family, which has impor-tant roles in metabolism, cellular proliferation, stress resistance, and apoptosis. Activation of cell survival pathways, such as phos-phoinositide-3-kinase/AKT or RAS/mitogen-activated protein kinase, phosphorylates FOXOs at different sites, thus regulating the nu-clear localization or degradation of FOXOs. A growing number of evidence indicates that FOXO acts as a tumor suppressor in a wide variety of tumors. Scientists have focused on the correlation between tumors and FOXO. In combination with other chemo-or radiother-apy treatments, drugs designed to increase or restore FOXO activity may constitute a potential strategy in cancer treatment. This review summarizes details on the regulation of FOXO and the latest research progress of FOXO as a molecule therapeutic target.

Objective To find out the relationship between the weight and whole body averaged SAR. and the relationship between the weight and the EM energy absorption in rat model exposed to 3 GHz microwave irradiation.Methods Based on 3D rat NMR images,a rat EM model consisting of 45 tissues was established, then by changing the size of model cell,16 models of which the sizes varied from 9 cm to 24 cm, and the weights from 16 g tO 334 g correspondingly were established too.Using FDTD method,the induced electric fields in these rat models were calculated,and then SAR and EM energy absorption have been obtained accordingly.Results The relationship between the weight and the whole body averaged SAR of rat model exposed to 3 GHz microwave irradiation can be divided into three sections,and each of them can be fitted into one line.In small rat section, SAR changed sharply;in middle rat section,SAR changed moderately;in large rat section,SAR changed litflely.The relationship between the weight and the EM energy absorption of rat model were fitted into one quadratic polynomial curve.The EM energy absorption was almost identical when the model is small,with the increasing of the weight,the EM energy absorption also increases,but the increasing ratio of the energy is less than that of the weight.Conclusions Larger rat absorbs more EM energy,but gets less SAR.Exposed to the same irradiation,the dose differences of larger rat is much less than that of smaller rat because of the changes in body weight,so the larger rat is to be recommended.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of acridine orange fluorescene(AO-F) in bladder cancers. Methods One thousand and sixteen bladder cancer patients were reviewed retro-spectively. The positive-rates of AO-F in different stages, grades, size, quantity, position of tumors, hematuria and treatment ways were evaluated. Results The total positive rate of AO-F was 78.05 % (793/1016). The positive-rate was 74.69% (611/818) in superficial stage and 91.92% (182/198) in invasive bladder cancer, 67.24% (351/522) in grade Ⅰ and Ⅱ , 90. 37% (413/457) in grade Ⅲ. The percentage of positive AO-F was 80.30% (750/934) in patients with hematuria, 52.44% (43/82) in patients without hematuria. The percentage was 79.87% (710/889) when the tumor size was more than 2 cm, 65.35% (83/127) when size less than 2 cm. 83.07% (363/437) sample was positive in multiple tumors, 74.27% (430/579) in single tumor. The percentage was 77.21% (105/136) in tumors involving trigone or neck of bladder, 78.07% (687/880) in tumors without involving these re-gions. There was 69.68% (393/564) in treatment with TURBt, 87.87% (268/305) in partial resec-tion, 91.74% (100/109) in total resection. A good association was observed between stage, grade, hematuria appearance, tumor size, quantity of carcinoma, treatment way and AO-F positive-rate, and a linear correlation was present between grade, stage and positive cytology. There was no significant association between position of the tumor and AO-F positive-rate. Conclusions The function of AO-F is significant in diagnosis of bladder cancer.

Objective To discuss the diagnostic value of multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT) in distinguishing the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) from community acquired pneumonia (CAP), and to evaluate the prognosis in these two groups. Methods A retrospective study was performed on 64 cases with SARS (28 men, 36 women, aged 18-93 yrs, mean age 42.3 yrs) and 46 inpatients with CAP (29 men,17 women, aged 28-88 yrs, mean age 70.1 yrs). Pathogens of respiratory tract were found in 23 patients of CAP. All of patients underwent MSCT scanning of the chest. Results The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy for diagnosis of SARS using a combination of 3 factors, including ground-glass opacities of lung parenchyma in chest CT, age, and WBC counts were 93.8%, 60.9% and 80.0%, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy for excluding SARS using a combination of consolidation of lung lesions, fiber stripe components and thicken bronchus wall of lung CT in CAP patients were 91.3%, 82.8%, and 86.4%, respectively. The death in SARS and CAP was 7 (10.9%) and 4 (8.7%), respectively. The late follow-up results indicated that 48.8% (21/43 cases) of SARS cases left abnormal manifestations in the lung. The lung sequela of the patients over 50 yrs tended to be severe with the age. Conclusion In outbreak region of SARS, MSCT plays an important role in early diagnosis, but we need to closely combine the density features of lung lesions and other manifestations of lung with clinical condition of patients to increase the accuracy for the differential diagnosis of SARS from CAP. The prognosis of patients over 50 yrs with SARS is relatively poor.

BACKGROUND:Constant magnetic field of proper intensity can inhibit the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells,and it can be used to inhibit the restenosis following percutaneous coronary intervention.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of constant magnetic field of different intensities on the expression of osteopontin gene in rat aorta smooth muscle cells, so as to investigate whether magnetic field can be used to prevent and treat restenosis following percutaneous coronary intervention.DESIGN: A randomly grouping and controlled observation.SETTING: Department of Cardiology, Xijing Hospital of the Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA.MATERIALS: The experiments were carried out in the laboratory of Department of Cardiology (Military Institute of Cardiovascular Disease), Xijing Hospital of the Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA from February to December in 2006. Male pure SD rats of 200-250 g were used.METHODS : Rat aorta smooth muscle cells were cultured in vitro in DMEM medium containing fetal bovine serum (0.1 in volume serum), and then the cells were randomly divided into control group, constant magnetic field of 1, 5, 10 and 50 Gs groups, those in the control group were not treated with magnetic field, and those in the other groups were treated with magnetic field and cultured for another 48 hours. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting were combined with absorbance (A) scanning analysis to observe the effect of constant magnetic field on the expressions of osteopontin and its mRNA in smooth muscle cells.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Expressions of osteopontin and its mRNA in smooth muscle cells.RESULTS: The expressions of osteopontin and osteopontin genes in the constant magnetic field groups were significantly decreased as compared with that in the control group (P ＜ 0.05), there were also significant differences among the constant magnetic field groups of different intensities (P ＜ 0.05). It was indicated that the stimulation of constant magnetic field was in an intensity-dependent manner, and the expressions of osteopontin and osteopontin mRNA were enhanced as the intensity of magnetic field was increased.CONCLUSION: Constant magnetic field of proper intensity can inhibit the osteopontin expression in vascular smooth muscle cells on the gene level, and magnetic field may play a role in preventing and treating the restenosis following percutaneous coronary intervention.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical advantage and disadvantage of anatomical landmark registration(ALR) and surface registration(SR) in computer-assisted endoscopic sinus surgery(CAESS).Method:Twenty-six patients were selected for the CAESS, the preparatory times and mean target registration errors (TRE) were recorded in order to compare the difference between them two, their convenience and their value were also analyzed.Result:CAESSs were successfully used in 26 cases without complications. The average preparation time of SR was(8.5±1.9)minutes, that of ALR was(6.5±1.7)minutes. In the SR group, the TRE of naso-labial angle was(1.43±0.26)mm, that of front end of middle turbinate was(1.92±0.47)mm, that of front end of inferior turbinate was (1.82±0.49)mm, and that of back end of inferior turbinate was (2.03±0.42)mm. Them in ALR group were (1.58±0.35)mm,(2.05±0.37)mm,(1.92±0.31)mm and (2.48±0.64)mm ,respectively.24 cases (92.2%) were not affected or were slightly affected by the navigation system. The value of navigation was affirmative in 22 cases (84.6%), and its value was mainly related to TRE.Conclusion:The accuracy of surface registration was superior to that of anatomical landmark registration, but the anatomical landmark registration was more convenient and need less preparation time. The value of navigation system is its accuracy, convenience and no disturbance to surgery. The navigation system is more valuable in the complex cases than that in the general case.
