Objective:To study the effect and molecular mechanism of BRCA2 gene on the killing of lung cancer by immune cells.Methods:siRNA was designed to reduce BRCA2 gene in lung cancer cells;BRCA2 expression was detected by qPCR and Western blot;cell growth was detected by MTT and CCK-8 methods;peripheral blood mononuclear cells were co-cultured with lung cancer cells,and GFP fluorescence was detected by enzyme labeling method.Killing efficiency of lung cancer cells was evaluated.Results:BRCA2 gene was expressed in moderate abundance in lung cancer cells A549 and H1299,and there was no significant differ-ence compared with lung epithelial cells BEAS-2B(P>0.05).When the BRCA2 gene in A549 and H1299 cells was successfully knocked down,the cell proliferation rate was significantly increased compared with control group;the killing efficiency of peripheral blood mononuclear cells to lung cancer cells A549 and H1299 were significantly higher than that of the control group;the expression of ATM,RAD51 and RAD50 were significantly reduced,while the expression of P53 protein was 7.2 times of the control group.Con-clusion:After knockdown of BRCA2 gene,peripheral blood monocytes are more effective in killing lung cancer cells.Intervention of BRCA2 and monocytes can synergistically inhibit lung cancer and regulate the expression of ATM signaling pathway molecules.

Objective:To analyze the fail mode of neoadjuvant therapy combined with surgery for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) after long-term follow-up.Methods:Clinical data of consecutive 238 patients with locally advanced resectable ESCC who underwent neoadjuvant therapy combined with surgery in Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from September 2012 to October 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The failure mode in the whole cohort was analyzed after long-term follow-up. The overall survival (OS) and disease free survival (DFS) rates were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method. Survival differences were determined by log-rank test.Results:The pathological complete response (pCR) rate was 42.0% in 238 patients. After a median follow-up of 46.1 months, tumor progression occurred in 96 patients (40.3%), including 25 patients (10.5%) with local recurrence, 61 patients (25.6%) with distant metastases, and 10 patients (4.2%) with simultaneous local recurrence and distant metastases. The median OS and DFS were 64.7 months and 49.9 months. And the 3-, 5-, and 7-year OS and DFS rates were 70.0%, 52.8%, 36.4% and 63.5%, 42.5%, and 30.0%, respectively. The 3-, 5-, and 7-year locoregional recurrence-free survival rates and distant metastasis-free survival rates were 86.0%, 71.4%, 61.2% and 70.6%, 55.9%, 43.0%. Compared with non-pCR patients, the overall progression rate and distant metastasis rate of pCR patients were lower (26.0% vs. 50.7%, 16.0% vs. 32.6%, both P<0.05). And the 3-, 5-, and 7-year OS (83.0% vs. 60.2%, 69.7% vs. 41.7%, 50.4% vs. 27.7%, all P<0.001) and DFS rates (80.4% vs. 51.4%, 63.9% vs. 31.2%, 45.9% vs. 20.3%, all P<0.001) were significantly better in pCR patients. Conclusions:Distant metastasis is the main failure mode of patients with locally advanced ESCC after neoadjuvant therapy. Patients with postoperative pCR can achieve better long-term survival.

The rapid progress on immunotherapy and targeted therapy has brought long-term survival benefits for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The oncology community has also paid more attention to the local treatment for advanced NSCLC, especially for patients with limited metastatic lesions, also known as oligo-metastasis. Many studies have reported that oligo-metastatic NSCLC patients could benefit from the combination of local and systematic treatment, and even to be cured. In recent years, with the advances in radiation technology, stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) has achieved precise high-dose radiotherapy for small target tumors. Currently, SBRT has been widely applied in the treatment of inoperable early lung cancer, and its application value and safety in patients with advanced lung cancer are also being actively explored. In this article, the research status, progress and future development direction of SBRT in the treatment of oligo-metastatic NSCLC were discussed.

Objective:To analyze the failure patterns and survival after stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in patients with T 1-2N 0M 0 non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). Methods:Clinical data of early-stage NSCLC patients who received SBRT at Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from January 2012 to September 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The primary observed endpoint was the pattern of disease progression, which was divided into intra-field recurrence, regional lymph node recurrence and distant metastasis. Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were calculated by Kaplan-Meier method. Univariate analysis was conducted by log-rank test, and multivariate analysis was performed by Cox's model.Results:A total of 147 patients with 156 lesions were included. The median follow-up time was 44.0 months (16.5-95.5 months). A total of 57 patients (38.8%) progressed: 14 patients (24.5%) had recurrence with the 1-, 3-, and 5-year local recurrence rates of 2.0%, 10.9%, and 14.3%, respectively; 36 patients (63.2%) had Distant metastasis with the 1-, 3- and 5-year distant metastasis rates of 12.2%, 22.4% and 28.6%, respectively; and 7 patients (12.3%) had recurrence complicated with distant metastasis. The 3-, 5- and 7-year OS rates were 80.5%, 64.2% and 49.9% for all patients, respectively. The median OS was 78.4 months. The 3-, 5- and 7-year PFS rates were 64.8%,49.5% and 41.5%, with a median PFS of 57.9 months (95% CI: 42.3-73.5 months). Univariate and multivariate analyses showed that biologically equivalent dose and age were the factors affecting the efficacy of SBRT (both P<0.05). Conclusion:Distant metastasis is the main failure pattern in patients with T 1-2N 0M 0 NSCLC after SBRT. High-risk population should be selected for further systematic treatment to improve the efficacy.

Formulating codes of ethics for nurses are not only the need of establishing nurses’ professional image and dignity, but also the demand of nursing discipline development. By combing the relevant documents of codes of ethics for nurses at home and abroad, this paper summarized the main contents and application of codes of ethics for nurses, found that codes of ethics for nurses were based on the basic principle of "patient-oriented", discussing the relationship between nurses and patients, collaborators, environment, society, specialty and personal development, and forming the constraint standard for nurses’ behavior in combination with the expectation of local cultural values for nursing industry. The codes of ethics for nurses in China need to further clarify the scope of nursing, formulate behavioral norms in various specialties, and through clinical evaluation, education, management and other aspects to promote its popularization and implementation.

BACKGROUND: Tumor microenvironment is a complex and dynamic community, which plays a crucial role in tumor progression via the co-evolution of cancer cells and tumor stroma. Among them, tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and tumor neo-vessels are two key components in the tumor microenvironment during cancer invasion. In addition, programmed cell death ligand 1/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) also plays an important role in tumorigenesis and development, and the clinical strategies to block PD-1/PD-L1 pathway could have great benefits for cancer patients. This study was aimed at analyzing the quantitative expression and prognostic significance of TAMs, tumor neo-vessels and PD-L1 in tumor microenvironment and exploring the relations between the expression of above components with the patients' prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS: Clinico-pathological data and surgical specimens of 92 patients with NSCLC were collected, and immunohistochemistry was used to stain the expression of TAMs, tumor neo-vessels and PD-L1 on tumor tissue and peri-tumor tissues. The inverted microscopy was used to take pictures and Image-pro Plus 6.0 software was used for quantitative analysis. The clinicopathological characteristics and overall survival (OS) were analyzed. RESULTS: The median OS of 92 NSCLC cases was 22.5 month. The expression of TAMs, tumor neo-vessels and PD-L1 in tumor tissue and peri-tumor tissues were not statistically significant (P>0.05). According to the cutoff of above key three components in tumor microenvironment, all the cases could be classified into high, middle and low expression groups. The survival analysis demonstrated that the OS in high expression group of TAMs (P=0.016) and PD-L1 (P=0.002) was shorter than the other two groups, respectively, with statistical significance. The OS in high tumor neo vessels group was shorter than the other two groups. However, there was no statistical significance between these three group (P=0.626). Combined with above the three components, all the cases could be classified into low, middle and high density groups. The survival analysis demonstrated that the median OS of combined high density group was shorter than the other two groups (P=0.001). Multivariate analysis by Cox regression indicated that pathological type, TAMs and PD-L1 expression were the independent prognostic factors. CONCLUSIONS The key components of TAMs and PD-L1 in tumor microenvironment are closely related to the prognosis of NSCLC patients.

Objective: To study the influence of personality on the occurrence of dental trauma of school-aged children. Methods:The school-aged children with dental trauma who came to visit our department were randomly recruited. The Eysenck Personality Scale was used to test the subjects who met the inclusion criteria. Results: 306 children were included in the study. There was a statistically significant association between personality type and the number of traumatic teeth (P ＜ 0. 05) and the number of traumatic teeth in children with extroversion was higher than that of children with neutrality or introversion (P ＜ 0. 05) . Conclusion: Extroverted personality is a significant correlation factor affecting the severity of dental trauma in children, and it is of great significance to provide scientific guidance and warning for them to prevent tooth trauma.

Objective: Adiponectin (APN) is an endogenous cytokine that mediates the development and progression of various tumors through its receptors (AdipoRs). The present study aimed to detect the expression and distribution of APN and its receptors (AdipoR1 and AdipoR2) in tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC). Moreover, we explored whether the locoregional expression of APN was reg-ulated by HIF-1α in the hypoxic microenvironment. Methods: The expression and distribution of APN and its receptors in TSCC tissues were analyzed by immunohistochemical. Lentiviral expression vector for HIF-1α shRNA was constructed and stably transfected in TSCC cells to knock down HIF-1α expression. The mRNA and protein expression levels of APN and its receptors were detected using RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively, after hypoxic treatment. Results: The locoregional expression of APN and AdipoR1, but not AdipoR2, was upregulated at the early stages of T1, T2, and/or N0 stage, respectively, in tumor tissues compared to that in control paracancer-ous tissues (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The expression of APN and AdipoR1, but not AdipoR2, in TSCC cells was up-regulated on hypoxic treat-ment. Moreover, the expression of APN and AdipoR1 was down-regulated after shRNA knockdown of HIF-1α under hypoxia. Conclu-sions: The APN-AdipoR1 signaling pathway was activated and regulated by HIF-1α in the hypoxic environment of TSCC tissues.

Objective To evaluate the effect of miRNA-29 (miR-29) family on the synthesis of collagen Ⅰ and Ⅲ in chronically photodamaged (photoaged) skin.Methods Some cultured human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) were divided into 2 groups:non-irradiated group receiving no treatment,and chronic photodamage group treated with repetitive ultraviolet A (UVA) radiation,which served as a chronically photodamaged cell model and was verified by flow cytometry and β-galactosidase staining.Western blot analysis was performed to determine the protein expression of collagen Ⅰ and Ⅲ,and real-time fluorescence-based quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) to measure expression of 3 members of the miR-29 family (miR-29a-3p,miR-29b-3p and miR-29c-3p) in the above 2 groups.The differentially expressed miR-29c-3p between the above 2 groups was chosen for further functional tests.Some HDFs were divided into 4 groups to be transfected with fluorescein-labelled miR-29c-3p mimics (overexpression group),inhibitors (inhibition group),and their control RNA oligonucleotides (negative control group and inhibitor control group) respectively.The transfection efficiency was evaluated by the proportion of fluorescent cells,and the relative expression of miR-29c-3p in the above 4 groups was measured by qRT-PCR for evaluating the RNA interference efficiency,qRT-PCR was conducted to determine the mRNA expression of collagen type Ⅰ α1 (COL1A1) and collagen type Ⅲ α1 (COL3A1) genes,and Western blot analysis to measure the protein expression of collagen Ⅰ and Ⅲ.Results Compared with the non-irradiated group,the chronic photodamage group showed significantly increased proportion of senescent cells (36.47％ ± 3.20％ vs.12.56％ ± 1.46％,P ＜ 0.01) and G1-phase cells (71.70％ ± 2.43％ vs.41.89％ ± 1.86％,P ＜ 0.01),but significantly decreased proportion of S-phase cells (10.63％ ± 0.36％ vs.36.48％ ± 1.31％,P ＜ 0.01),which indicated that the chronically photodamaged cell model was established successfully.The protein expression of collagen Ⅰ and Ⅲ was significantly lower in the chronic photodamage group (0.40 ± 0.19 and 0.52 ± 0.10) than in the non-irradiated group (1.00 ± 0.12 and 1.00 ± 0.10,respectively,both P ＜ 0.01).The expression of miR-29c-3p was significantly higher in the chronic photodamage group than in the non-irradiated group (4.42 ± 2.05 vs.0.89± 0.10,P ＜ 0.05),while there were no significant differences in the expression of miR-29a-3p or miR-29b-3p between the 2 groups (both P ＞ 0.05).Twenty-four hours after transfection,the overexpression group and inhibition group both showed more than 90％ transfection efficiency which met the interference requirements.The expression of miR-29c-3p was significantly higher in the overexpression group than in the negative control group (224.17 ± 2.00 vs.2.45 ± 0.34,P ＜ 0.01),but significantly lower in the inhibition group than in the inhibitor control group (0.20 ± 0.08 vs.2.24± 0.14,P ＜ 0.01),suggesting that a RNA interference model was successfully established.The mRNA expression of COL1A1 and COL3A1 and the protein expression of collagen Ⅰ and Ⅲ were significantly lower in the overexpression group than in the negative control group and inhibition group (all P ＜ 0.05),and significantly higher in the inhibition group than in the inhibitor control group (all P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion The expression of miR-29c-3p is up-regulated in chronically photodamaged HDFs,likely by regulating the mRNA expression of COL1A1 and COL3A1 and the protein expression of collagen Ⅰ and Ⅲ.
