The experiment was performed at the Institute of Treatment and Prevention of Tumor of Jilin Province and Department of Etiology, Jilin Medical College from October 2004 to June 2005. The normal umbilical cord blood (UCB) was provided by a healthy lying-in woman from Changchun Hospital with the permission of the pregnant woman. Full-term normal delivery and UCB of healthy pregnant women was collected by aseptic venepuncture after fetal disengagement, and with Natrium Citricum anticoagulation. After the UCB mononuclear cells were isolated by Ficoll-paque (relative volume mass: 1.077?0.22) density gradient centrifugation, long-term liquid culture system was used for UCB adherent cells, and co-cultured with UCB mononuclear cells. The adherent cells were observed and mononuclear cell cycles were tested with flow cytometer. It showed that adherent layer of UCB increased UCB mononuclear cells expansion as compared with that of non-adherent layer of UCB after co-culture for 7 days. The cell percentage in S+G2+M phase obviously increased, and there was significant difference [(42.7?1.1)%,(35.5?2.8)%,P

Objective:To observe the clinical characteristics of patients with familial vitreous amyloidosis (FVA) and the efficacy of vitrectomy (PPV) and the occurrence of complications.Methods:A retrospective clinical study. From June 2009 to March 2020, 32 eyes of 18 patients from 3 FVA families who were diagnosed and treated by PPV at Department of Ophthalmology of Jiaxing TCM Hospital were included in the study. Among them, there were 12 males with 22 eyes and 6 females with 10 eyes. The average age of onset was 42.28±3.25 years; the average duration of disease was 3.75±3.93 years. All the affected eyes underwent best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and B-mode ultrasound examination. A logarithmic visual acuity chart was used in the BCVA examination, which was converted to the logarithmic minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) visual acuity when recorded. The average logMAR BCVA of the affected eye was 1.72±0.53; the intraocular pressure was less than 21 mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa). The vitreous body of the affected eye was obviously cloudy. All the affected eyes underwent standard three-channel PPV through the flat part of the ciliary body, and vitreous specimens were collected for pathological examination during the operation. Peripheral venous blood of probands from 3 families was collected, and the whole exome gene sequencing was performed. The follow-up time after surgery was ≥6 months. The patient's clinical characteristics, fundus lesions in PPV, changes in BCVA after surgery, and complications was observed. One-way analysis of variance or t test was performed for measurement data comparison; χ2 test was performed for count data comparison. Results:The vitreous body of the affected eye showed gray-white dense and thick flocculent changes, and the posterior capsule attached to the lens showed "foot disc-like" turbidity; later the lens was mainly cystic opacity. Pathological examination of the vitreous body showed positive staining of Congo red; under a polarized light microscope, it showed apple green dots and sheet-like birefringence. The genetic test results showed that there was a c.307G>C (p.Gly103Arg) missense mutation in the TTR gene of the proband in Family 2. Peripheral retinal hemorrhages in 4 eyes (12.5%, 4/32), retinal tears in 5 eyes (15.6%, 5/32), retinal degeneration in 4 eyes (12.5%, 4/32), retinal detachment were found in PPV 3 eyes (9.4%, 3/32). The vitreous body was filled with C 3F 8 and silicone oil respectively for 2, 1 eye. Six months after the operation, the logMAR BCVA of the affected eye was 0.39±0.32, which was significantly higher than that before the operation, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=15.131, P=0.000). After the operation, high intraocular pressure occurred in 2 eyes (6.3%, 2/32), secondary glaucoma in 1 eye (3.1%, 1/32), retinal detachment in 2 eyes (6.3%, 2/32), neovascular glaucoma (NVG) in 2 eyes (6.3%, 2/32), cataract in 10 eyes (31.3%, 10/32). Conclusion:The vitreous body of FVA eyes are gray-white dense, thick and flocculent, attached to the posterior lens capsule, showing "foot disc-like" turbidity; PPV treatment can effectively improve the BCVA of the FVA eyes; secondary glaucoma, secondary retinal detachment, NVG can occur after surgery.

Objective: To investigate the effects of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) knockdown on proliferation, invasion and migration of lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells and explore the mechanism. Methods: The expression levels of HO-1 mRNA in human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs) and human lung cancer cell lines (A549, H1299, H358 and H1993) were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), and immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to detect the expression level of HO-1 in human lung adenocarcinoma specimens. The HO-1 short hairpin RNA (shRNA) was transfected into A549 cells by RNA interference technique. HO-1 stably deleted A549 cells were selected (HO-1 shRNA group) and verified by RT-qPCR and western blot. HO-1 shRNA A549 cells and control shRNA A549 cells were treated with the inducer of autophagy Torin1 or its inhibitor Bafilomycin A1 (Baf A1), respectively. The expressions of autophagic markers LC3B and p62 were determined by western blot. The proliferation, invasion and migration abilities of each group of A549 cells were assessed by cell counting, Transwell and wound healing assays, respectively. Results: The expressions of HO-1 mRNA in lung cancer cell lines (A549, H1299, H358 and H1993) were significantly higher than that of HBECs, and HO-1 upregulated in human lung adenocarcinoma. The expression of p62 protein and the ratio of LC3B-Ⅱ/ LC3B-Ⅰ in no treatment group, Torin1 treatment group and Baf A1 treatment group were significantly higher than those of the corresponding control group (P<0.05). After 11 days of culture, the number of cells in HO-1 shRNA group were 41.8%, 30.4% and 14.0% of the corresponding control group, respectively. The number of lower chamber cells in HO-1 shRNA group were (35.7±2.1), (27.0±1.0) and (38.0±1.0)/field, respectively, which were lower than (66.0±9.2), (39.3±1.2) and (43.0±2.6)/field of the corresponding control group, respectively (P<0.05). The migration distances of HO-1 shRNA group were (7.47±0.91) mm, (4.23±0.82) mm and (5.42±0.24) mm, which were lower than (10.07±1.26) mm, (7.14±0.07) mm and (12.04±0.80) mm of the corresponding control groups, respectively (P<0.05). Conclusion Knockdown of HO-1 inhibits the proliferation, invasion and migration of A549 cells by impeding autophagy.

Objective To investigate the clinicopathological factors associated with pathological complete response(pCR)of axillary metastatic lymph nodes in breast cancer patients after neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC),and to analyze the postoperative survival.Methods A total of 116 patients with breast cancer with axillary lymph node metastasis were collected from Jiaxing Hospital of TCM,Jiaxing Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital and The First Hospital of Jiaxing.Univariate analysis was used to analyze the relationship between clinicopathological factors and the pCR of axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer after NAC.Binary Logistic regression was used to analyze the independent predictors of the pCR of axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer after NAC.Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to analyze the disease-free survival rate and overall survival rate of patients with and non-pCR of axillary metastatic lymph nodes.Results Among 116 patients,52 cases of axillary metastatic lymph nodes achieved pCR after NAC,accounting for 44.83%.Univariate analysis showed that age,vascular invasion,pCR of primary breast tumor,the difference of Ki67 before and after NAC,NAC regimen,and the efficacy of NAC were statistically significant between breast cancer patients with pCR and those non-pCR(P<0.05).Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that age,vascular invasion and pCR of primary breast tumor were independent predictors of pCR of axillary metastatic lymph nodes(P<0.05).The 5-year disease-free survival rate(80.40%vs.54.60%)and overall survival rate(90.4%vs.70.10%)of patients with pCR and non-pCR of axillary metastatic lymph nodes were compared.Conclusion Some breast cancer patients with axillary lymph node metastasis can reach pCR in lymph nodes after NAC.Analyzing the correlation between clinical pathological factors and pCR of axillary metastatic lymph nodes after NAC,it was found that pCR of axillary metastatic lymph nodes after NAC is related to age≤50 years old,no vascular infiltration,and primary breast tumor pCR.At the same time,it was found that patients with axillary metastatic lymph node pCR had a better prognosis than those with non-pCR.
