There are high burden of disease including a high incidence, relatively high proportion of late stage when diagnosed and poor overall prognosis in China regarding to the diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer. Surgery remains as the major treatment for gastric cancer. Based on the latest guidelines, endoscopic surgery or gastrectomy is performed for early gastric cancer, and the standard surgery for locally advanced gastric cancer is D2 lymphadenectomy. Besides, this article will discuss about other research hotspots, such as expansion of lymph node dissection in selected patients, construction methods of adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction, especially Siewert type Ⅱ, minimally invasive techniques (laparoscopic gastrectomy and robotic gastrectomy), the surgical treatment for elderly patients with gastric cancer will be discussed also.

Activation of the heart normally begins in the sinoatrial node (SAN). Electrical impulses spontaneously released by SAN pacemaker cells (SANPCs) trigger the contraction of the heart. However, the cellular nature of SANPCs remains controversial. Here, we report that SANPCs exhibit glutamatergic neuron-like properties. By comparing the single-cell transcriptome of SANPCs with that of cells from primary visual cortex in mouse, we found that SANPCs co-clustered with cortical neurons. Tissue and cellular imaging confirmed that SANPCs contained key elements of glutamatergic neurotransmitter system, expressing genes encoding glutamate synthesis pathway (Gls), ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors (Grina, Gria3, Grm1 and Grm5), and glutamate transporters (Slc17a7). SANPCs highly expressed cell markers of glutamatergic neurons (Snap25 and Slc17a7), whereas Gad1, a marker of GABAergic neurons, was negative. Functional studies revealed that inhibition of glutamate receptors or transporters reduced spontaneous pacing frequency of isolated SAN tissues and spontaneous Ca

Objective To assess the clinical characteristics of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patients and patients's attitude towards BPH and BPH therapy. Methods The question-naires were distributed to 3560 BPH patients throughout the country during the period of Prostate Health Educational Programmer (PHELP). The survey was mainly focused on the questions of patient understanding toward BPH, the preference of treatment and international prostate score scale.Results The evaluations based on 2878 completed patient's questionnaires showed that 86. 0% of patients were diagnosed with moderate or severe low urinary tract syndrome. The main reasons for seek treatment was irritative symptoms (64. 1%), obstructive symptoms ( 41. 7%), physical checkup (41.0%), worry about prostate cancer(14. 5%). Most of patients sought treatment from big hospitals. Most of patients (69.1%) had right understanding towards BPH. Nocturia was the most bothersome of lower urinary tract symptoms(LUTS) suggestive of BPH. Rapid LUTS improvement was the patient's main objective (87.4%). Conclusions Chinese patients did not recognize the complications of BPH progression. Irritative symptoms are the main reasons for seek treatment. Nocturia is most bothersome syndrome, which deteriorates quality of life mostly.

Human ribosomal DNA (hrDNA) targeting vector pHr is a homologous recombinant plasmid for human genome which developed in the State Key Laboratory of Medical Genetics. pHr was used to construct a recombinant plasmid pHr-CMG expressing mda-7/GFP fusion gene and its efficacy in the hepatocellular carcinoma cell line Bel-7402 was investigated. The expression of mda-7/GFP fusion gene was detected by fluorescent microscope, RT-PCR and Western blotting, and its function was detected by cell-cycle analyses, MTT assay and Hoechst33258 staining. The results demonstrated that pHr-CMG vector could express MDA-7/GFP fusion protein effectually and the mda-7 gene could induce cell apoptosis and proliferation suppression in Bel-7402 cell line, which might be caused by the G2/M cell cycle arrest. These results also suggested that human ribosomal DNA targeting vector system and the pHr-CMG vector may be applied in further gene therapy researches for hepatocellular carcinoma.

In order to study the tumor suppression effect of p53 with CMV enhancer and hTERT promoter mediated by human-derived vector pHrn in liver cancer cell Bel-7402, report plasmid pchEGFP, tumor suppressor plasmids pchp53Arg and pchp53Pro were constructed by inserting expression cassette CMVe+hTERTp+EGFP, CMVe+hTERTp+p53Arg and CMVe+hTERTp+p53Pro into pHrn respectively. 24 h after cell transfection by lipofectamine 2000, GFP expression pattern was analyzed through fluorescence microscope and flow cytometry; RT-PCR and Western blot were taken to study the p53 expression pattern. The cell apoptosis by Hoechst 33258 and Annexin V-FITC/PI staining was also studied. Results show that the expression of GFP and p53 protein in Bel-7402were detected, but apparent cell apoptosis could not be found. The recombinant p53 mediated by human-derived vector could express in Bel-7402, but no significant tumor suppression effect was detected, which might result from the down regulation effect of the wild type p53 on hTERT promoter.

Hydroxyapatite nanoparticles were prepared in low Ca/P ratio by a kind of electrodeposition-hydrothermal process. The suspension of nanoparticles was cultured with SGC-7901 cells; metabolically active cells were evaluated by MTT analysis. Cells grew well and the nanoparticles in the concentration range of 10-100 microg/ml had no adverse effect on the cell viability. The results show that the nanoparticles have excellent biocompatibility with cells. Agrose gel electrophoresis analysis demonstrated that the nanoparticles had the potential to adsorb EGFP-N1 at the pH ranging between 2 to 7. Nanoparticle-DNA complex could transfer EGFP-N1 into the SGC-7901 cells, and the confocal microscopy analysis revealed that the cells with green fluorescence showed the efficiency of nanoparticle uptake to be about 80% of the efficiency of the Lipofectmine TM 2 000 uptake. In vivo, nanoparticles and DNA-nanoparticle complex were injected into mice respectively via tail-vein, and the mice grew well in two weeks. The liver, kidney, and brain of the mice were sampled and detected with electron microscopy, and all of these exhibited biodistribution of nanoparticles. This study demonstrates that Hydroxyapatite nanoparticles could be used as gene carriers.
