Chemotherapy is an important adjuvant treatment of glioma, while the efficacy is far from satisfactory, due not only to the biological barriers of blood‒brain barrier (BBB) and blood‒tumor barrier (BTB) but also to the intrinsic resistance of glioma cells via multiple survival mechanisms such as up-regulation of P-glycoprotein (P-gp). To address these limitations, we report a bacteria-based drug delivery strategy for BBB/BTB transportation, glioma targeting, and chemo-sensitization. Bacteria selectively colonized into hypoxic tumor region and modulated tumor microenvironment, including macrophages repolarization and neutrophils infiltration. Specifically, tumor migration of neutrophils was employed as hitchhiking delivery of doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded bacterial outer membrane vesicles (OMVs/DOX). By virtue of the surface pathogen-associated molecular patterns derived from native bacteria, OMVs/DOX could be selectively recognized by neutrophils, thus facilitating glioma targeted delivery of drug with significantly enhanced tumor accumulation by 18-fold as compared to the classical passive targeting effect. Moreover, the P-gp expression on tumor cells was silenced by bacteria type III secretion effector to sensitize the efficacy of DOX, resulting in complete tumor eradication with 100% survival of all treated mice. In addition, the colonized bacteria were finally cleared by anti-bacterial activity of DOX to minimize the potential infection risk, and cardiotoxicity of DOX was also avoided, achieving excellent compatibility. This work provides an efficient trans-BBB/BTB drug delivery strategy via cell hitchhiking for enhanced glioma therapy.

Objective To investigate the expressions of metallothionein-2A (MT-2A), E-cadherin, interleukin-6 (IL-6), cyclin E, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and bcl-2 in prostate cancer tissues and their correlation with biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer. Methods Tissue specimens from 128 cases of prostate cancer who underwent radical prostatectomy in Shanxi Dayi Hospital from October 2012 to October 2017 were processed and transferred into tissue microarrays, the clinicopathological parameters of patients were also recorded. The expression levels of MT-2A, E-cadherin, IL-6, cyclin E, PCNA and bcl-2 were detected by immunohistochemical avidin-biotin complex (ABC) staining. The correlation between different molecular markers and biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer was analyzed. Results The biochemical recurrence rate of 128 patients with prostate cancer was 30.5％ (39/128). The biochemical recurrence rates of low-risk, intermediate-risk and high-risk prostate cancer patients were 14.8％(8/54), 38.7％(24/62) and 58.3％ (7/12), respectively. The risk classification and pathological T stage of patients with prostate cancer were associated with the expressions of MT-2A, cyclin E, IL-6 and E-cadherin (all P< 0.05). Multivariate Cox risk model showed that the high risk classification (HR= 1.81, 95％CI 1.56-2.19, P=0.042), MT-2A positive expression (HR= 2.01, 95％CI 1.08-3.15, P= 0.005), cyclin E positive expression (HR= 1.79, 95％CI 1.08-2.21, P= 0.042) and E-cadherin negative expression (HR= 1.92, 95％ CI 1.22-2.45, P= 0.020) were the independent risk factors for biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer. Conclusion The expression of MT-2A, cyclin E and E-cadherin may serve as independent predictors for biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer.

Objective To evaluated the clinical efficacy of transurethral en bloc resection of bladder tumor with 2 μm laser in the high-risk elderly patients with bladder cancer under local anesthesia. Methods All of 64 high-risk elderly patients having underwent surgical treatment from April 2015 to October 2016 were divided into 2 groups,2 μm laser group(30 patients)and transurethral resection of bladder tumor(TURBT)group(34 group)according to surgical methods.The area and degree of pain was observed and recorded using visual analogue scales(VAS)during the 2 μm laser operation. The operation time,bladder irrigation time,catheter indwelling time,hospital stay,complications and 1-year cumulative recurrence rate were compared between 2 groups. Results The ASA grade in 2 μm laser group was higher than that in TURBT group and there was significant difference(P<0.05).During the 2 μm laser operation,the urethra pain was 53.33%(16/30),bladder pain was 20.00%(6/30), both urethra and bladder pain was 26.67%(8/30).The VAS scores were(2.50 ± 1.38)points,all the patients tolerated the pain in the 2 μm laser group.There was no significant difference in operation time between 2 groups(P>0.05).The bladder irrigation time,catheter indwelling time and hospital stay were shorter in 2 μm laser group than those in TURBT group:(40.00 ± 19.06)h vs.(56.47 ± 14.55)h,(4.33 ± 1.40)d vs. (5.65 ± 0.93) d,(4.13 ± 1.51) d vs. (6.24 ± 0.75) d,P<0.05 or<0.01. The overall incidence of complications was lower in 2 μm laser group than that in TURBT group:13.33%(4/30) vs. 64.71% (22/34),χ2=8.719,P=0.003.Compared with that of pre-treatment,the quality of life was higher after treatment in two groups,but there were no significant differences between the two groups.There were no significant differences in 1-year cumulative recurrence rate between the two groups after treatment (χ2= 0.496,P = 0.481). Conclusions Transurethral 2 μm laser treatment in bladder cancer under urethral surface anesthesia is safe and reliable for the high-risk elderly patients and complications are fewer than TURBT.The recent curative effect is satisfied.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of intravesical instillation with Sufuning (SFN) lotion for prevention of postoperative recurrence of bladder cancer. Methods A total of 240 bladder cancer patients who were diagnosed as bladder cancer and accepted trans-urethral resection of bladder tumor from January 2010 to June 2016 in Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital were randomly divided into the experimental group (120 cases) and the control group (120 cases) according to the envelope method. The patients in the experimental group were treated with SFN lotion for immediate intravesical instillation(250 mg for once), and the patients in the control group were treated with pirarubicin (THP) for immediate intravesical instillation (30 mg for once). The patients of two groups were treated with intravesical chemotherapy once a week for 8 times, and the chemotherapy was performed once a month for 1 year. The recurrence rate, progression-free survival (PFS) rate, overall survival (OS) rate and recent side effects were compared between the two groups. Results The patients were followed up for 6 to 60 months. The median follow-up time was 36.5 months.In the experimental group,6 patients were lost and 8 patients were lost in the control group.The experimental group, the total recurrence rate was 26.3 % (30/114). The control group, the overall recurrence rate was 25.0 % (28/112) (χ2= 0.142, P = 0.781). Five years of PFS rate in the experimental group and the control group was 73.7 % (84/114) and 75.0 % (84/112) respectively, and there was no significant difference between the two groups (χ2= 2.011, P= 0.615). Five years of OS rate in the experimental group and the control group was 95.6 % and 92.9 % respectively, and there was no significant difference between the two groups (χ 2= 1.611, P= 0.425). The major side effects included chemical cystitis and hematuria. The incidence of chemical cystitis and hematuria in the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the control group(χ2=5.991,P=0.018;χ2=4.925,P=0.036).There was a statistically significant difference of the hematological side effects (blood routine changes) between the two groups (χ 2= 4.891, P= 0.032). Conclusion It is safe and effective for intravesical instillation of SFN lotion to prevent the recurrence of bladder cancer.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of preoperative and postoperative intravesical instillation of pirarubicin for the prevention of postoperative recurrence of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). Methods From September 2012 to March 2014, 120 patients who were diagnosed as NMIBC and accepted trans-urethral resection of bladder tumor (TUR-Bt) were collected and randomly divided into two groups, including treatment group (60 cases) and control group (60 cases). 30 minutes before the operation, instillation of pirarubicin (40 mg) was performed in the treatment group, then pirarubicin perfusion was given within 24 h after operation, once a week for 8 weeks, and once a month for 10 months after operation. In control group, instillation of pirarubicin (40 mg) was given within 24 h after operation, and other treatments were the same as the treatment group. The differences of lesion detection probability, the 2-year recurrent rate and the adverse reaction rate were compared between the two groups. Results The lesion detection rates were 42.70 % (38/89) and 1.85 % (2/108) in the treatment group and control group, respectively (χ2=50.303, P<0.05). 119 patients were follow-up for 24 months. The 2-year recurrence rates were 8.47%(5/59), 21.67% (13/60) in treatment group and control group respectively (χ2= 4.033, P< 0.05). The adverse reactions mainly included hematuria (3 cases in treatment group, 3 cases in control group), urinary tract irritation (3 cases in treatment group, 2 cases in control group) and urethral stricture (1 case in treatment group, 1 case in control group). The difference of the adverse reaction incidence between the two groups was not significant statistically [11.86 % (7/59) vs. 10.00 (6/60), χ 2 = 0.106, P > 0.05]. Conclusions The preoperational intravesical instillation of pirarubicin can fix and diagnose malignant lesions in the bladder without adverse reactions, which will improve the rate of tumor resection and prevent postoperative recurrence of tumors.
