Objective To establish a human breast cancer cell line with green fluorescent protein(pAcGFP)gene.Methods Human breast cancer cell lines MCF-7 were transfected with pAcGFP-C1 by Fugene HD Transfection Reagent.The cells which express the pAcGFP gene were selected by geneticin(G418).The expression of pAcGFP were detected by inverted fluorescence microscope and flow cytometry,the growth curve and invasive power were observed to compare the biological behavior of the cells transfected with pAcGFP and untransfected ones.Results A human breast cancer cell line with pAcGFP was established,named MCF7-pAcGFP.The transfection rate was 85%.The growth curve and invasive power of the transfected cells were similar to untransfected ones(P>0.05).Conclusion The MCF7-pAcGFP cells could stably express AcGFP,and pAcGFP transfection does not change the biological behavior of the cells.

Objective BRCA1 has been known as breast cancer susceptibility genes which is closely associated with familial breast cancer and early onset breast cancer.The objective of our research is to investigate the prevalence of BRCA1 gene mutations among HeiLongJiang patients with familial or at early onset breast cancer.Methods 92 breast cancer patients with familial history or have suffered from breast cancer at the age of less than 35 years old were analyzed.A comprehensive mutation analysis(except exon1 and exon4)was performed through SSCP and subsequent DNA direct sequencing.Results In 92 breast cancers,five mutations were identified that included 3 novel mutations and 2 previously reported mutations which are all nonsense mutation.Conclusion The BRCA1 may play a very important role in familial breast cancer of HeiLongJiang population.Three novel mutations in BRCA1 may be mutations characterized to familial breast cancer of Chinese HeiLongJiang population.The mutation frequency of BRCA1 in familial breast cancer patients from HeiLongJiang is obviously lower than that in the western countries.However,the nonsense mutation 3712insG were detected in three patients which indicated that this mutation may be a founder mutation.

Objective To investigate the clinicopathologic features of gastric cancer with peritoneal dissemination,and also to evaluate the impact of different operations on the prognosis.Methods A statistical analysis was performed retrospectively with regard to clinicopathologic features and survival of 91 cases of gastric cancer with peritoneal dissemination.Results Univariate analysis revealed that tumor size,tumor location,degree of differentiation,Borrmann types,organ infiltration,lymph node metastasis,depth of invasion and hepatic metastasis were correlated with Peritoneal dissemination(P<0.05).The Logistic regression model revealed that the depth of invasion and organ infiltration were independent factors(P<0.05).The difference of age,ascites and organ infiltration between the non-radical resection and palliative operation groups was statistically significant(P<0.05).The different survival time of palliative operation group with feeding neostomy,gastrointestinal anastomosis and exploratory laparotomy was not statistically significant(P>0.05).The median survival time in non-radical resection group was 13.4 months and in palliative operation group was 4.2 months.The difference was statistically significant(P<0.01).Multivariate analysis by Cox regression indicated that the type of operation and tumor size were significant factors affecting the prognosis of the patients with peritoneal dissemination.Conclusions The clinicopathologic features of patients with gastric cancer are intimately correlated with peritoneal dissemination.Non-radical resection can improve the prognosis of peritoneal dissemination patients of gastric cancer.

Objective To investigate the effects of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation(TEAS)on perioperative serum levels of cytokines and postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing radical mastectomy.Methods Forty(ASAⅠ/Ⅱ)female patients undergoing radical mastectomy were randomly divided into two groups(n=20 each).In group E,patients received epidural blockade only.In group H,patients received TEAS plus epidural blockade.In group H,electrical stimulations of bilateral Hegu acupoints(LI4)and Neiguan acupoints(P6)were started from 30 minutes before epidural blockade and continued until the end of operation.Blood sample were taken before(T0)and the end of(T1)and 12h(T2)after operation for determination of serum IL-6,IL-10 and cortisol concentrations in both groups.The postoperative VAS were recorded.Results The two groups were comparable with respect to age,body weight,duration of operation and the amount of fluid infusion and blood loss.Serum cortisol concentration was significantly lower at T1 and T2 in group H than that in group E(P<0.05).The serum IL-6 concentration was significantly increased after operation as compared with baseline in both groups and was significantly lower in group H than that in group E(P<0.05).The serum IL-10 concentration was significantly higher at T2 in group H than that in group E(P<0.05).During 12 hours after operation,VAS of group H was lower than that of group E(P<0.05).Conclusion TEAS may attenuate cortisol and IL-6/IL-10 responses after surgery.TEAS also has analgesic effect in patients undergoing radical mastectomy.

Objective This study is to quantitatively analyse the set-up error in the different positions of the irradiated patients using electronic portal imaging device(EPID)to provide the set-up accuracy in the different positions and to understand the acceptance between different oncologist.Methods From January 2006 to December 2007,58 patients were involved in this study,who randomly selected from the different oncology treatment group by different positions(20 patients in the head and neck,19 patients in the chest,19 patients in the abdomen and pelvic).The treatment of all cases were implementated by Elekta Precise accelerator,scanned by Philips AcQ-Sim CT and/or simulated by Nucletron Simulix-HQ simulator,planned by ADCC Pinnacle3 7.4 system.Treatment planning computed tomography(CT)scans were used to create orthogonally digitally reconstructed radiographs(DRRs)for portal image registration,which were compared with portal images from an electronic portal-imaging device(EPID)of Elekta′s iView GT by comparing bone structure in horizontal and vertical directions.Results A total of 102 data were reviewed,the set-up error of horizontal position is 1.02±1.15mm(range 0-5mm),the vertical position is 1.11±1.20mm(range 0-6mm).More than 90% setup error is less than 3mm.The smallest setup error in the horizontal direction and vertical direction is 0.64±0.65mm and 0.91±0.98mm respectively with head or head and neck fixed.The set-up errors were different between the different oncologist.Conclusions The majority of setup errors is in the permissible range.Need to improve the recognition of the EPID in the chest,abdominal pelvic anatomy.The implementation of the X-ray simulator before treatment is an effective means to reduce setup error.
