Bromodomain and extra-terminal proteins (BETs) are potential targets for the therapeutic treatment of prostate cancer (PC). Herein, we report the design, the synthesis, and a structure-activity relationship study of 6-(3,5-dimethylisoxazol-4-yl)benzo[cd]indol-2(1H)-one derivative as novel selective BET inhibitors. One representative compound, 19 (Y06014), bound to BRD4(1) in the low micromolar range and demonstrated high selectivity for BRD4(1) over other non-BET bromodomain-containing proteins.

Objective: Varicocele is a common disease in young and middle-aged men. This study aims to compare the efficacy of internal spermatic vein embolization of left varicocele versus laparoscopic high ligation.

Methods: From January 2017 to September 2018, a total of 69 varicocele patients were admitted and given the opportunity to choose the treatment option.

Introduction: This study aims to investigate the efficacy of incision-free endovenous laser treatment (EVLT) combined with sclerosing foam in treating varicose veins of the lower extremities.

Methods: A total of 140 patients (186 limbs) who underwent laser closure of the great saphenous vein + injection sclerotherapy were included in the present study. Preoperative information, intraoperative conditions, duration of the operation, and length of hospital stay were recorded in detail.

Aim: The purpose of this study was to explore the causes of recurrent lower limb varicose veins after surgical interventions.

Methods: A retrospective five-year survey was conducted on patients who underwent second surgery due to recurrent lower limb varicose veins after surgical interventions. A total of 141 limbs (112 cases), including 72 cases of left lower limbs, 47 of right lower limbs and 22 of both limbs, were involved in the study.

Background: Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) is a posthepatic portal hypertension caused by the obstruction of the lumen of the hepatic veins or the proximal inferior vena cava (IVC). This study aimed to evaluate the clinical experience of interventional therapy for Budd-Chiari syndrome.

Methods: IVC venography was carried out first, the obliteration or stenosis in the IVC was opened or dilated with the hard guided wire or Rups100 puncture needle and balloon, then a stent was routinely implanted for the type of obliteration or stenosis.

Objective: To investigate the therapeutic effects of cationic nanoliposome-mediated gene therapy combined with immunotherapy for colon cancer treatment.

Methods: Recombinant plasmids containing green and red fluorescent protein reporter genes were constructed using gene cloning methods. Gene-carrying cationic nanoliposomes were prepared based on the electrostatic adherence principle and then transfected into dendritic cells (DC), which were transplanted into colon cancer cells.

Objective: The present study aims to investigate the expression and significance of the anti-apoptotic gene Bag-1 in colorectal cancer and to evaluate the relationship between the gene and the disease.

Methods: Bag-1 expression was examined in 320 colorectal cancer and 30 normal colorectal tissue samples using reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and the immunohistochemical staining (streptavidin-biotin-peroxidase complex method.

Results: Using RT-PCR, Bag-1 was observed to be expressed in colorectal cancer tissues, but not in normal colorectal tissues.
