Abstract
Objective: To compare and analyze the effect of minimally invasive surgery and traditional open surgery in patients with spinal canal tumors, including intraspinal and extraspinal communication tumors. Methods: From 2017 to 2019, 31 patients (minimally invasive channel group) were included in the neurosurgery department of Huashan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University, and 38 patients (open operation group) were selected as the control group. From the aspects of intraoperative condition, operative effect, postoperative muscle injury, postoperative complications, postoperative spinal stability, the minimally invasive access group and the open operation group were compared and analyzed. Results: The bleeding volume (70.2 ml±4.9 ml), operation time (164.7 min±16.0 min) and hospitalization days (9.5±2.5) in the minimally invasive access group were significantly lower than those in the open operation group (P<0.001). The creatine kinase CK (363.9 U/L±51.6 U/L) in the minimally invasive group was significantly lower than that in the open group (514.2 U/L±68.3 U/L) (P<0.001). According to Panjabi standard, the effect of spinal cord stability in minimally invasive group was significantly lower than that in open operation group (P<0.001), and the symptom improvement rate in minimally invasive group was significantly higher than that in open hand group (P<0.05). Conclusions: Compared with the open surgery, the amount of bleeding, the length of incision, the time of operation and the days of hospitalization were significantly shorter, the degree of muscle damage was also significantly reduced, the incidence of complications was lower, the impact of spinal stability was smaller, and the overall advantage was obvious.

Abstract
PURPOSE Human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) and calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) act as an oncogene in gastric cancers, however, their relationship in the progression of gastric cancers is yet to be elucidated. Herein, we aimed to access the potential interaction between hTERT and CaSR in the development of gastric cancers. METHODS The clinical data of 41 patients with gastric cancers were analyzed regarding the expressions of hTERT and CaSR by immunohistochemistry. Among them, five patients' specimens were also analyzed by Western blotting. The regulation of calcium on the expression level of hTERT and the possible underlying mechanism via CaSR were explored in gastric cancer cell lines MKN45 and SGC-7901. RESULTS Both hTERT and CaSR were increased and positively correlated in human gastric cancers, which also occurs in gastric cancer cells MKN45 and SGC-7901. Calcium induced hTERT expression at the transcriptional level in a CaSR-dependent manner followed by an increase in telomerase activity, as either a CaSR shRNA or the CaSR antagonist NPS2143 abolished the calcium-mediated regulation of hTERT and telomerase activity. Further studies showed that CaSR-mediated cytosolic calcium rise followed by Akt activation was involved in the regulation of hTERT by extracellular calcium. Finally, neither CaSR overexpression nor shRNA-mediated CaSR downregulation had an effect on the expression level of hTERT. CONCLUSIONS Our findings established a functional linkage between CaSR and hTERT in the development of gastric cancers and CaSR-hTERT coupling might serve as a novel target for therapeutic strategy against human gastric cancers.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND
Growth of glioma cells can be promoted by hypoxia, but its underlying molecular mechanisms are not clear. Exosomes and miRNAs were reported to play crucial roles in tumor progression. Effects of exosomes and exosomal miRNAs, induced by hypoxia, on glioma cells were still unclear.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
Glioma samples were analyzed by HE and HIF-1α staining. Image data of these patients were also retrospectively analyzed. HT22 and C6 cell lines were co-cultured in both direct and indirect system. Hypoxia (1% oxygen) and oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) were applied to evaluate hypoxia effects on the growth and proliferation of cell lines, and such effects were assessed by C6/HT22 ratio, MTT and LDH assay. Hypoxia-induced glioma derived exosomes (HIGDE) and non-HIGDE (NHIGDE) were isolated and were administrated to normal culture medium to evaluate their effects on cell growing. The target miRNA was selected by performing miRNA microarray analysis. MicroRNA mimics and shRNA were constructed to overexpress or inhibit the microRNA expression. MTOR signal pathway was activated by utilizing phosphatidic acid. The RNAs expression were detected by RT-qPCR and the proteins expression was evaluated by western blotting.
RESULTS
Para-tumor hypoxia area shared a same region with cytotoxic edema around the glioma lesion and can be easily detected by PET/CT. The density of positive HIF-1αstaining was higher in tumor area than that in para-tumor and normal parenchyma area. In hypoxia direct co-culture system, the cell number ratio of C6/HT22 was significantly higher than that without hypoxia pretreatment; while in hypoxia mono-culture and indirect co-culture systems, the proliferation ability of HT22 was statistical lower than C6. After applying OGD, neuron cells cultured with HIGDE showed a statistical higher LDH release level than with NHIGDE or normal culture medium. The miRNA microarray analysis revealed that miRNA-199a-3p was the highest expressed in HIGDE than in NHIGDE (p < 0.05; Fold Change > 2). Transfected with mimics or shRNA, it was indicated that upregulation of miR-199a-3p aggravated HIGDE-induced OGD injury in HT22 cells. Moreover, we interfered mTOR signal pathway and the expression of HIF-1αin C6 cells. We found that miRNA-199a-3p aggravated HIGDE-neuron cell injury via suppressing mTOR signal pathway, and hypoxia related upregulation of miRNA-199a-3p in HIGDE was induced by the activation of HIF-1α in C6 cells.
CONCLUSION
The Hypoxia-Induced Glioma Derived Exosome miRNA-199a-3p can be upregulated by the activation of HIF-1α, and is able to promote glioma cells proliferation and increase ischemic injury of the para-tumor neurons via inhibiting mTOR pathway.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the prevalence, demographic characteristics and social life function of mental disorders in the rural left behind elderly aged 60 years and older in Gansu. Methods: Between November 2017 and June 2018, a multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method was used to randomly select the rural left behind elderly aged 60 years and older in Gansu, and totally 6 000 elderly were enrolled. By using the extended general health questionnaire (GHQ-12) and the American Handbook for Diagnosis and Statistics of Mental Disorders (DSM-Ⅳ) Axis Ⅰ Disorders Formal Clinical Examination Patient Edition, all the included subjects were screened and diagnosed. Functional status was assessed by the Global Assessment Function scale (GAF). Statistical analysis of the prevalence of various mental illnesses, as well as the differences in the prevalence of different gender, marital status and age groups was performed. Results: Totally, 6 000 subjects completed the survey. The adjusted current prevalence of any mental disorder was 20.11% (95%CI 17.70%-22.85%). The six most prevalent specific disorders were major depressive disorder (9.20%), pain disorder (2.71%), mood disorder due to the body condition (2.08%), generalized anxiety disorder (1.99%), anxiety disorder not otherwise specified (1.15%) and dysthymic disorder (0.84%). The lifetime prevalence of mental disorders was 20.54% (95%CI 18.40%-23.39%). The overall current prevalence of mental disorders was higher in women (242.89‰) than in men (119.55‰), and the unmarried (248.37‰) was higher than those married (187.53‰). There was no significant difference in the prevalence of mental disorders among different age groups (P>0.05). The GAF score of mental disorders was 56±11, and 71.82% was moderate to severe functional impairment. Conclusions: The prevalence of mental disorders is high in rural left-behind population aged 60 years and over in Gansu Province. Major depression is a condition that deserves special attention.

Abstract
This study aims to explore the correlation of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and fibroblast activation protein (FAP) expressions with the angiogenesis and metastasis in colorectal cancer (CRC). The immunohistochemical SABC method was used to detect HGF and FAP expressions in 127 CRC tissues, 51 colorectal polyp tissues and 28 normal tissues. HGF and FAP expressions in liver metastasis were detected using western blot to analyze the correlation of their expressions with lymph node metastasis and liver metastasis. Micro-vessel density (MVD) and clinic-pathologic information of CRC patients were recorded and analyzed. In CRC group, HGF and FAP expressions were greatly higher than those in normal group and colorectal polyps group (P < 0.05). Moreover, the positive rates of HGF and FAP expressions in lymph node metastasis were evidently higher than those in non-lymph node metastasis (P < 0.05). In liver metastasis group, HGF and FAP expressions were obviously higher than non-liver metastasis group (P < 0.05). CRC group had much more MVD in comparison with normal group and colorectal polyps group (P < 0.05).When compared with negative group, MVD was significantly higher than that in CRC tissue with positive HGF and FAP (P < 0.05). Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that HGF and FAP were in positive correlation with MVD (r = 0.542, P < 0.001; r = 0.753, P < 0.001). These results indicate that FAP and HGF play an important role in CRC angiogenesis, and their expression levels are valuable to predict CRC liver metastasis and lymph node metastasis.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is always accompanied by persistent inflammation of liver tissues, which is considered to exert protumourigenic effects by promoting cancer growth, progression, and metastasis. However, the tumour-promoting roles and predictive value of intratumoural inflammatory cytokines remain unclear. In the present study, we used database analysis, clinical pathological studies, and in vitro biological experiments on human hepatic cancer cell lines to assess the prognostic potential of the primary tumour cytokine mRNA levels and underlying mechanisms in HCC. First, we assessed the prognostic value of several cytokines from the TCGA database and found that IL-8 is a unique cytokine that is associated with poor overall survival of HCC patients. Then, we collected 87 HCC tumour and adjacent non-tumour specimens from patients and confirmed that patients with low IL-8 expression exhibited less intrahepatic invasion or distant metastasis, a lower recurrence rate and longer overall survival time compared to patients with high IL-8 expression. Wound healing, transwell, and western blotting assay results showed that IL-8 promotes the migration and invasion of Huh-7 and HepG2 cells, and the underlying mechanism is that IL-8 induces the EMT of HCC cells via the IL-8/ERK1/2/SNAI1 and IL-8/STAT3/TWIST1 signalling pathways. These results provide valuable biological IL-8 information which needs to be further investigated in liver cancer target therapy research. Furthermore, the intratumoural cytokine expression at the mRNA level may provide insight into hepatocarcinoma prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Isoflurane is one of the most common general anaesthetics used during surgical procedures, including tumour resection. However, the effects of isoflurane on the viability and migration capacity of cancer cells, specifically in the context of brain cancer cells, remain unclear. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the influence that isoflurane has on the function of glioblastoma stem cells (GCSs) in regards to cell proliferation, survival and migration. METHOD U251-GSCs were exposed to isoflurane at clinically relevant concentrations and incubation times. The effects on proliferation, survival and migration capacities of the cells were evaluated in vitro. The potential risk was assessed in mice by intracranial injection of U251-GSCs pretreated with isoflurane. Furthermore, the average tumour volume and migration distance of U251-GSCs from the tumour centre were calculated. RESULTS Exposure of U251-GSCs to 1.2% isoflurane for 6 h resulted in increased proliferation (P<0.05) and decreased apoptosis rate (P<0.05) when compared with the control group. In addition, isoflurane exposure caused increased migration capacity in vitro (P<0.05) and the distance migrated was increased in vivo (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Clinically relevant concentrations and incubation times of isoflurane could promote the viability and mobility of U251-GSCs, suggesting this general anaesthetic may have detrimental effects in glioblastoma by facilitating its growth and migration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE A preliminary investigation on the proliferation and cultivation process of natural killer T cells (NKT) was carried out. We provide reference data for future NKT-related research and development. METHODS Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from healthy people and were induced by α-galactosylceramide (α-GalCer). The phenotypic changes of the cells and the activation and apoptosis of Caspase-3 were recorded for 3-4 weeks. RESULTS The proliferation of the NKT cells continued for approximately 3 weeks, and then apoptosis started to occur. The activity of Caspase-3 was maintained at a high level from the second week. The responses of individual human NKT cells to α-GalCer stimulation differed significantly. CONCLUSION The proliferation of the NKT cells continued for approximately 3 weeks, and then apoptosis Semiconstitutively started to occur. The activity of Caspase-3 was maintained at a high level from the second week. The responses of individual human NKT cells to α-GalCer stimulation differed significantly.
