Tumor immune escape refers to the phenomenon in which tumor cells escape the recognition and attack of the body's immune system through various mechanisms so that they can survive and proliferate . The imbalance of immune checkpoint protein expression is the primary mechanism for breast cancer to achieve immune escape. Cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4) and programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death protein-ligand 1 (PD-L1) are critical immune checkpoints for breast cancer.

Conditional survival (CS) is used to describe the dynamic possibility of survival, considering the changes of death risk with time lapsing. This study aimed to estimate the conditional disease-specific survival (CDS) for the female with operable invasive breast cancer. The data was obtained from Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Result Program of the National Cancer Institute.

Objective: Visfatin is a new novel proinflammatory adipocytokine affecting insulin resistance by binding to insulin receptor. To investigate whether visfatin stimulates monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) production in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and mediates insulin receptor (IR) is involved in are not known.

Methods: Cultured HUVEC was treated with different doses and durations of visfatin.

October 2007

Department of Nuclear Medicine, Cardiovascular Institute and Fu Wai Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical and Peking Union Medical College, Beijing 100037, China.

Objective: (99m)Tc-[bis (dimethoxypropylphosphinoethyl)-ethoxyethylamine (PNP5)]-[bis (N-ethoxyethyl)-dithiocarbamate (DBODC)] nitride ([(99m)Tc (N) (PNP5) (DBODC)](+)) is a new myocardial perfusion tracer with high heart uptake and rapid liver clearance. The objectives of this study were to compare the myocardial imaging of [(99m)Tc (N) (PNP5) (DBODC)](+) with (99m)Tc-MIBI in a canine model of acute myocardial ischemia.

Methods: The left anterior descending artery (LAD) was occluded in 12 adult beagle dogs, adenosine was then infused intravenously at a rate of 0.
