Tumor invasion model is an important tool to study the mechanisms of tumor mvasion and to evaluate prevention and treatment of cancer.Compared to the in vitro model,in vivo model can simulate the tumor microenvironment and tumor mvasion biological behaviour better.Morphological observation and invasion-related protein detection can be used to evaluate the animal invasion model,which are widely used in basic and clinical research now.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVEAdenoid cystic carcinoma is primary bronchopulmonary carcinoma with low malignancy, and 43 patients treated in the past 50 years in our hospital were retrospectively studied. The aim of this study is to discuss the clinical symptoms, pathologic characteristic and therapeutic method of primary tracheal or bronchuotracheal adenoid cystic carcinoma.
METHODSThis study summarized total 43 patients of primary tracheal or bronchus adenoid cystic carcinoma treated in our hospital from Jan. 1958 to Dec. 2007. Among them, 40 patients were treated by surgical resection, and 3 patients were treated by fiberoptic bronchoscope's interventional treatment.
RESULTSThe 1-yr, 3-yr, 5-yr survival rates of the 43 patients above were 100% (41/41), 89.5% (34/38), 87.1% (27/31), respectively.
CONCLUSIONPrimary tracheal or bronchus adenoid cystic carcinoma are rare and low malignancy carcinoma. The clinical symptoms of them are not typical. The best treatment is early detection and taking measures of operation plus radiotherapy. The other palliative treatment is fiberoptic bronchoscope's interventional treatment.

Objective:
To understand the homosexual behavior and related factors among married MSM in Mianyang city.
Methods:
Between January and October in 2017, a snowball sampling method was adopted to carry out cross-sectional survey through questionnaires plus HIV testing among those MSM in Mianyang city. Logistic regression model was used to analyze homosexual behaviors and related factors among married MSM under study. Statistical analysis was used by EpiData 3.1 and SPSS 19.0 software.
Results:
A total of 234 MSM participated in this survey. The overall rate of homosexual behavior in these married MSM appeared as 94.9

【Objective】 To clarify the role and molecular mechanism of Tanshinone ⅡA (TanⅡA) in the pathological integration of granule cells in the dentate gyrus (DG) by using the mouse model of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). 【Methods】 Status epilepticus (SE) was induced in the mice with pilocarpine and treated with TanⅡA 5 mg/kg. After two months, Morris water maze was used to examine the spatial learning and memory ability and video surveillance was used to monitor spontaneous seizures. The DG was removed for staining of Timm, Prox-1, DCX and SynⅠ. PTEN, p-AKT, and p-S6 expressions were observed by Western blotting. 【Results】 TanⅡA decreased Timm score, SynⅠ, PSD-95 and pS6 levels, and increased the level of PTEN in the DG, and attenuated the formation of mossy fiber sproutings and basal dendrites of the granule cells. Video surveillance showed that TanⅡA reduced the frequency of Racine’ grade 5 seizures. 【Conclusion】 TanⅡA can effectively attenuate the abnormal integration of the granule cells in the DG by regulating PTEN/AKT/mTOR pathway and thus plays an anti-epileptic role.

Chronic wounds in diabetes mellitus is a common complication of diabetes mellitus with complex pathogenesis and long recovery time. At present, there are many kinds of dressings for chronic wounds in diabetes, among which synthetic dressings have obvious therapeutic advantages. As an emerging biomaterial, hydrogel has obvious advantages over traditional dressings in terms of water absorption, air permeability, biocompatibility, drug loading ability, and continuous controlled drug release, and has attracted much attention in the repair of chronic wounds in diabetes mellitus. Common hydrogels have anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antioxidant, tissue-promoting, and hypoglycemic effects. This paper systematically summarizes the progress in research on anti-inflammatory and antibacterial hydrogels in chronic diabetic wounds. Among them, according to different anti-inflammatory and antibacterial mechanisms and materials, common anti-inflammatory hydrogels can be divided into hydrogels loaded with anti-inflammatory drugs, hydrogels based on anti-inflammatory materials, and hydrogels loaded with biological components. Hydrogels can be classified into antibiotic-loaded hydrogels, antibacterial material-based hydrogels, and inorganic nanoparticles-loaded hydrogels. Anti-inflammatory and antibacterial hydrogels have achieved certain research results in the treatment of chronic diabetic wounds, but there are still some technical problems waiting for further improvement. Meanwhile, this paper discusses the prospect of the future development of hydrogels applied in chronic diabetic wounds, aiming to provide systematic theoretical support for the treatment of chronic diabetic wounds in the future.
