In order to investigate how macrophages promote lipid droplet hoarding in hepatocellular carcinoma cells and to delve into the roles of key metabolic enzymes of lipid droplets in the malignant biology of hepatocellular carcinoma cells, the present study was conducted to induce the generation of Hepa1-6 lipid droplets (LDs) using supernatants from tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), and found that interleukin-10 (IL-10) in TAMs was found to promote the accumulation of lipid droplets. Acetyl-CoA carboxylase alpha (ACC1) is one of the key enzymes for fatty acid synthesis and influences the development of hepatocellular carcinoma. In this study, ACC1 was found to be highly expressed in LDhigh Hepa1-6, and subsequent blockade of ACC1 activity by means of a small molecule inhibitor of ACC1, siRNA interference, and CRISPR-cas9 knockdown was found to reduce the accumulation of Hepa1-6 lipid droplets, as well as to reduce the malignant biological behavior of Hepa1-6 proliferation, and to promote the occurrence of apoptotic events. In summary, IL-10 released by TAMs promoted lipid droplet formation in hepatocellular carcinoma cells, leading to malignant proliferation and apoptosis of hepatocellular carcinoma cells. ACC1 plays a key role in the promotion of lipid droplet accumulation in hepatocellular carcinoma cells by TAMs and may be regulated by IL-10 released by TAMs, and these findings may provide a new target for hepatocellular carcinoma treatment.

Objective To analyze the prognosis ofⅠb2 andⅡa2 cervical squamous cancer without high risk factors treated with neo-adjuvant chemotherapy(NACT)and radical hysterectomy. Methods This retrospective study included patients with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO)stageⅠb2 andⅡa2 cervical squamous cancer without high risk factors who underwent platinum-based NACT followed by radical surgery from January 2008 to January 2015.The responses of NACT were observed and compared in their effect on postoperative pathologic risk factors. Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression analysis were performed to analyze survival status. Results This study was recruited 282 patients with the average age of(44.4±6.7)years old.After NACT,42 patients achieved complete response [CR,14.9%(42/282)],while 138 patients achieved partial response[PR,48.9%(138/282)]and 102 stable disease [SD, 36.2%(102/282)]. The rate of pathologic diameter ≥4 cm, deep stromal invasion(DSI) positive and lymph-vascular space invasion(LVSI)positive rate decreased significantly in CR and PR group compared with SD group(P<0.05). The number of postoperative risk factors in CR, PR and SD groups varied significantly(χ 2=64.869, P=0.000). Besides,the rate of multiple intermediate risk factors was respectively 0 vs 13.8% vs 45.1%(χ2=7.107, P=0.008). The disease relapsed in 23 patients, and 12 died. On the whole series, 5-year overall survival rate was 91.7%, and 5-year recurrence-free survival rate was 88.9%. The rate of recurrence(P=0.002)and mortality(P=0.036)were higher in LVSI positive patients compared with LVSI negative. And the rate of recurrence was higher in patients with multiple intermediate risk factors,compared with no or one intermediate risk factors(P=0.002).Univariate analysis revealed that LVSI positive and multiple intermediate risk factors were the factors predicted recurrence and mortality(P<0.05), and no significance in age, stage, tumor grade, tumor diameter before or after NACT, response to NACT,or DSI positive factors(all P>0.05).The multivariate analysis showed that,the factor of primary tumor diameter≥6 cm(P=0.022)and multiple intermediate risk factors(P=0.001)were independent prognostic variables for recurrent-free survival.Besides,multiple intermediate risk factors was independent prognostic variable for overall survival(P=0.034). After surgery, 107 patients did not receive adjuvant therapy,while 175 patients received adjuvant therapy with 26 radiotherapy,46 chemotherapy and 103 concurrent radiochemotherapy.On survival analysis of postoperative adjuvant treatment,5-year recurrence-free survival rate of radiotherapy group was significantly lower in patients with the factor of SD response to NACT(P=0.011)and multiple intermediate risk factors(P=0.008), while overall no significance in overall survival rate(P>0.05).Conclusions NACT may be play beneficial role in relieving the status of intermediate risk factors for stage Ⅰb2 andⅡa2 cervical squamous cancer without high risk factors. The status of multiple intermediate risk factors is independent prognostic factors for recurrence and mortality. For patients with multiple intermediate risk factors, postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy or concurrent radiochemotherapy might be the better choice to prevent relapse.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the feature of underlying disorders, clinical symptoms, diagnosis and treatment strategies of patients with acquired hemophilia(AH).
METHODSThe clinical data and laboratory tests results of 22 patients with AH from March 2010 to June 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.
RESULTSA total of 22 patients with AH were enrolled in our study, including 20 patients diagnosed as acquired hemophilia A (AHA) and 2 as acquired hemophilia B (AHB). Among the AHA patients, there were 10 males and 10 females with the median age of 37.5 (range, 2-95) years old. The median activity of FVIII (FVIII:C) of the 20 AHA patients was 1.9% (0.5%-39.0%). Soft tissue hematoma (80.0%) and subcutaneous bleeding (75.0%) were the most common clinical symptoms. Two male children were diagnosed as AHB (age 1 and 3 years old, respectively) with mild bleeding symptoms, and the activities of FIX (FIX:C) were 5.0% and 16.0%, respectively. In addition, an underlying disorder was found in 7 patients (31.8%). In laboratory testing, all patients had prolonged APTT, normal PT, decreased FVIII:C or FIX:C, positive antibody screening test or antibody titer (2-32 BU), and negative for lupus anticoagulant and anticardiolipin antibody. Nineteen out of 20 patients were treated with blood products to stop acute bleeding episodes. Corticosteroid alone was applied to 7 patients, corticosteroid combined with other immunosuppressive agents to 11 patients, rituximab to 3 patients. Nineteen patients responded well to hemostatic treatment, except 1 patient who died of fatal bleeding. The FVIII:C of 8 patients increased to a normal level with the median time of 42.5(21-145) days. After treatment, the activity of FIX:C of the 2 AHB patients achieved 35% and 24% in 48 and 60 days, respectively.
CONCLUSIONAcquired hemophilia is not an uncommon disease in clinical practices, which can occur in people of all ages. AH is a bleeding disorder with heterogeneous characteristics. Compared with adult, the clinical symptoms of children patients were mild, which lead to underdiagnosis.
