miR-26b通过调节Notch1信号通路参与原发性肝细胞肝癌侵袭的机制研究

目的:探讨miR-26b参与原发性肝细胞肝癌（HCC）侵袭的机制。方法:在细胞培养液中培养人肝细胞系HL-7702和HCC细胞各系Hepb-3、HuH-7、MHCC97-L、MHCC97-H。实时荧光定量PCR法（qRT-PCR）检测miR-26b的表达水平；用miR-26b mimics、miR-26b inhibitors和Notch1-siRNA分别转染HCC细胞；MTT实验检测转染后HCC细胞的活力；采用Western blot检测Notch1受体蛋白表达水平的变化；Transwell小室测定不同处理后的HCC细胞的侵袭能力。结果:人正常肝细胞系HL-7702和HCC细胞系Hepb-3、HuH-7、MHCC97-L、MHCC97-H中的miR-26b相对表达含量随其侵袭和迁移能力的升高而依次下降；抑制miR-26b的表达，Notch1受体蛋白表达明显增高，而此时HCC细胞的侵袭性显著增强；相反，上调miR-26b的表达，Notch1受体蛋白表达明显降低，而HCC细胞侵袭性显著下降；miR-26b可能通过调控Notch1信号通路调节HCC细胞侵袭性。结论:miR-26b通过负调控Notch1信号通路抑制HCC细胞侵袭能力，为HCC侵袭的机制奠定了理论基础，miR-26b可能成为HCC治疗的新靶点。     

Hiperplasia endotelial papilar intravascular (tumor Masson) de localización ginecológica

Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia or Masson's tumour is a non-neoplastic vascular lesion of reactive character. It is a rare diagnosis, clinically non-specific and with diverse locations. It is essential to take it into consideration and make a differential diagnosis with malignant vascular tumours such as angiosarcoma. Pathological study is fundamental for diagnosis. Treatment consists of complete resection of the tumour, including sufficiently wide margins to avoid recurrence.The case reported is an exceptional event, because of the pelvic location of the Masson's tumour that was diagnosed as part of the surgical staging of an ovarian cancer.

500 Cases of High-intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) Ablated Uterine Fibroids and Adenomyosis

ObjectiveClinical outcomes of 500 high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU)-treated uterine fibroids and adenomyosis are analyzed and presented.Materials and methodsThis is a retrospective cross-sectional analysis from a single tertiary medical center. From April 2015 to October 2018, 546 cases were enrolled for the study. After excluding 46 patients with less than 3 months of follow-up period, there were 404 fibroids, 149 adenomyosis and 53 mixed conditions entered for analysis. The patients’ uterine fibroids and adenomyosis were treated by HIFU according to Chongqing Haifu protocol, with 12 cm diameter transducer of focal length 10–16  cm at 0.8 or 1.6 MHz T2-weight MRI imaging was rendered prior to and 3 month post treatment to assess lesion volume change using non-perfusion volume, which was the primary outcome. Secondary outcomes including quality of life, subjective satisfaction, adverse events and pregnancy rate were determined using self-reported questionnaires. The mean follow up period ranged from 3 to 38 months with an average of 21 months.ResultsThree months after HIFU-treated uterine fibroids and adenomyosis, the lesion size reduced 40.2% and 46.3%, respectively. Symptoms all improved with better quality of life for the fibroid group, while those with adenomyosis or combined diseases benefit the most from pain control. Serum CA125 decreased significantly for all studied groups, and LDH only showed improvement for fibroids group. Number of adverse events is comparable to Chongqing data (approximately 10.2%), with mostly mild and self-resolving conditions. No permanent sequelae or death was documented. Twelve pregnancies are reported in this cohort.ConclusionHIFU is safe and effective in treating uterine fibroids and adenomyosis. The results are reproducible if standardized treatment schedules are followed. It is a promising treatment alternative with the advantages of precision, non-invasiveness, rapid recovery and readiness for pregnancy.     

ELAM-1在鼻咽癌裸鼠移植瘤中的表达及其与转移的关系

目的 建立裸鼠鼻咽癌转移模型并探讨 E-选择素（ELAM-1）与鼻咽癌转移的相关性。方法 将鼻咽癌5-8F细胞悬液注射于裸鼠左后肢爪垫，观察裸鼠状态、成瘤情况并测量裸鼠体重及移植瘤长短径；采用连续病理切片苏木精-伊红染色观察移植瘤及转移情况，将16只人鼻咽癌荷瘤裸鼠分为转移组和非转移组；采用免疫组织化学法检测两组移植瘤组织中ELAM-1的表达。 结果 16只裸鼠均成瘤，成瘤率为100.0%，其中10只裸鼠出现转移瘤，转移率为62.5%。建模前，两组裸鼠体重差异无统计学意义［（13.83±0.56）g vs （14.62±0.30） g，t=1.026，P=0.071］。建模后4~7周，裸鼠瘤体体积呈指数增长，且转移组移植瘤增长速度较非转移组快，非转移组裸鼠瘤体体积小于转移组［（198.91 ± 163.29） mm³ vs （268.76 ±174.31） mm³，t=4.376，P=0.005］。ELAM-1在鼻咽癌裸鼠移植瘤、淋巴结转移灶及远处转移灶中的表达均为阳性，主要表达于细胞膜。转移组移植瘤光密度值高于非转移组（0.4497±0.0705 vs 0.0435±0.0082，t=4.388，P＝0.001）。结论 本研究成功构建稳定性好、转移率高的鼻咽癌裸鼠移植瘤转移模型，且ELAM-1在裸鼠移植瘤中高表达，可促进鼻咽癌裸鼠移植瘤生长和转移。

目的:研究体外缺氧对乳腺癌细胞系MCF7浸润能力及其细胞表面黏附分子E-cadherin和细胞骨架蛋白犤细胞角蛋白(cytokeratin)、波形蛋白(vimentin)犦表达的影响。方法:模拟体外缺氧环境,观察缺氧对乳腺癌细胞MCF7浸润穿透Matrigel的能力;以及采用半定量RT-PCR检测细胞表面黏附分子E-cadherin和cytokeratin、vimentin表达情况。结果:缺氧状态下MCF7细胞的浸润能力明显增强;且在缺氧条件下E-cadherin基因表达下降、cytokeratin、vimentin基因表达升高。结论:缺氧状态下MCF7细胞转移能力和其表面的E-cadherin基因、cytokeratin、vimentin基因表达存在一定关系。     

外科治疗ⅢA期N2非小细胞肺癌的预后分析及临床意义

目的 探讨影响ⅢA期N2非小细胞肺癌（NSCLC）预后的因素，并分析经手术治疗不同亚组病人的生存率差异。方法 分析1997年1月至2000年1月146例手术治疗的ⅢA期N2 NSCLC病人的可能影响预后因素：病理类型、肿瘤位置、肿瘤大小、手术方式、临床N2情况，N2转移组数及个数、术后辅助治疗等，并用Kaplan-Meier曲线及Logr ank检验生存率差异，Cox单因素、多因素分析各因素对生存率的影响。结果 ⅢA期N2 NSCLC病人的3年和5年生存率分别为19．86％和14．56％。单因素分析示肿瘤位置、临床N2情况、N2转移组数及个数是影响生存率的因素；多因素分析示肿瘤大小、临床N2情况，N2转移组数和肿瘤位置影响预后。右肺下叶肿瘤单组或单个N2转移，预后最好。结论 纵隔N2转移淋巴结的大小、个数和组数是影响术后生存率主要因素。手术前未发现N2转移（mN2），有1组N2转移（N2h），N2转移数少于4个者手术治疗效果好。右肺下叶肿瘤发生单组N2淋巴结转移预后好。     

Image-directed color Doppler ultrasonography in the evaluation of superficial solid tumors

Image-directed color Doppler ultrasonography (ICDUS) studies of 86 patients with superficial solid masses yielded significantly lower resistive index (RI) values in acute inflammatory lesions, but no significant difference between the maximum systolic flow velocities (S) of the patient groups with malignant, benign, and acute inflammatory lesions. When analyzed separately, the malignant soft-tissue tumor subgroup was shown to have significantly higher mean RI compared to that of the malignant node subgroup. We conclude that RI may be useful in the differentiation of acute inflammatory masses from other pathological entities. Malignant soft-tissue tumors, especially sarcomas, may have different Doppler features from those of carcinomatous tumors. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
