China Pharmacy 2015;(26):3681-3683
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate therapuetic efficacy and toxic reaction of 2 therapuetic regimens for 56 cases of bone me-tastasis of cervical cancer. METHODS:56 cases of bone metastasis of cervical cancer with complete information were collected ret-rospectively and randomly divided into radiochemotherapy group(31 cases)and diphosphonate group(25 cases). Radiochemothera-py group was given radiotherapy,chemotherapy and diphosphonate;diphosphonate group was given palliative symptomatic treat-ment of diphosphonate;a treatment course lasted for 3-4 weeks,and both groups received 3 courses of treatment. Average survival time,survival quality and toxic reaction were comparison in 2 groups. RESULTS:After bone metastasis of cervical cancer,the av-erage survival time of radiochemotherapy group was 17 months (95%CI:9.1-24.9),and that of diphosphonate group was 19 months (95%CI:2.4-35.6);3 years later,the survival rate of radiochemotherapy group was 16.1%,and that of diphosphonate group was 16.0%,there was no statistical significance(P=0.820). To compared KPS after 3 treatment courses,the improvement rate of radiochemotherapy group(22.6%)was significantly lower than that of diphosphonate group(40.0%),with statistical signif-icance (χ2=4.36,P<0.05). Toxic reaction of radiochemotherapy group was more significant than that of diphosphonate group. CONCLUSIONS:Diphosphonate has little effect on survial quality and slight toxic reaction. It is worthy of spreading in some pa-tients with advanced,elderly and reccurred bone metastasis of cervical cancer.

Objective To study the inhibitory effect of APE1 expression vector pSilence APE1 on growth of osteosarcoma in nude mice, and to elucidate the role of APE1 in pathogenesis and development of osteosarcoma. Methods Nude mice model bearing osteosarcoma was reproduced by implanting human osteosarcoma cell line 9901. Twenty mice were randomly divided into two groups: control group in which the mice were treated with lipofectamine, and experimental group in which the mice were treated with pSilence APE1. The tumor inhibition rate was calculated after 12 days of treatment. Meanwhile, the expression of APE1 protein, intratumor microvessel density (MVD), and proliferation index were observed by immunohistochemistry. Apoptosis index was assessed by terminal dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) technique. Results Down-regulation of APE1 expression of tumor cells was found in the group treated with pSilence APE1. The tumor inhibition rate was 38.23%. The intratumoral microvessel density (MVD) in experimental groups and proliferation index were significantly lower than the control group, while the apoptosis index was much higher. Conclusion Targeted knock down of APE1 by pSilence APE1 may inhibit the growth of osteosarcoma in vivo.

Objective To explore the metabolic characteristic of prostate cancer (PCa) in central gland with magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopic, and evaluate the value of MRS in the differential diagnosis of benign prostatic hyperplasia nodus. Methods MR images were performed in 38 cases with prostate disease by 3.0T MR, 11 cases with PCa in central gland and 27 cases with benign prostatic hyperplasia nodus. All the cases were scanned by routine, then by the combined MRS. MRS findings were reviewed in 27 cases with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and 11 cases with PCa (3 in central gland origin, 8 with large tumor invading both peripheral zone and central gland). (Cho+Cr)/Cit ratios of PCa and BPH were retrospectively measured, (Cho+Cr)/Cit of PCa voxels were compared with that of BPH voxels. Results Significantly higher choline levels and lower citrate levels were observed in central gland of PCa compared with BPH. In the glandular BPH region, the amount of Cit was high; while in the stromal region, the Cit and Cho level was much lower. The average (Cho+Cre)/Cit values of PCa and BHP were 1.94±1.43 and 0. 83±0. 28 respectively, the difference in ratio between both was statistically significant (P<0. 01). Conclusions The combined use of MRI and MR spectroscopy is propitious for differentiating prostate cancer in central gland and benign prostatic hyperplasia nodus and for increasing the diagnostic accuracy of prostate cancer.

Objective To investigate the antitumor effect and its mechanism of microbubble contrast combined with Mitoxantrone exposed to low-frequency ultrasound on human breast cancer cell MCF-7. Methods MTT method was applied to examine the growth inhibition of MCF-7 treated with Mitoxantrone. MCF-7 cells were randomly divided into 4 groups:Mitoxantrone group (group D), ultrasound+Mitoxantrone group (group U+D), ultrasound+microbuble +Mitoxantrone group (group U+M+D) and control group (group C). The cytoactive of each group was examined with MTT. The intracellular drug content in each group was measured with high performance liquid chromatography. The morphology of MCF-7 cells apoptosis was observed with transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Results The IC_(50) of Mitoxantrone was 2.87 μg/ml. The differences of cytoactive among all groups were significant (P<0.05). The intracellular drug content of group U+M+D was higher than that of group U+D, and the latter was higher than that of group D. The morphological changes of apoptosis were observed with TEM. Conclusion Low-frequency ultrasound can promote intracellular drug content as to enhance the sensitivity of chemotherapy drugs on tumor cells, and this effect can be enhanced by microbubble contrast exposure to low-frequency ultrasound.
