Methods: (1) 88 nude mice models of human breast cancer xenograft (MCF-7) were established, and then were randomly divided into control group and 10 chemotherapy groups (each group, n = 8). Among them, the mice of 5 chemotherapy groups were treated intraperitoneally/orally by 5 com-bination chemotherapy regimens (CMF, CAF, NP, TP, Xeloda) respectively at 1/3 LD10 dosage schedule (dose lethal to 10% of the mice), and that in another 5 chemotherapy groups were treated at 2/3 LD10 dosage schedule. Control animals were administered intraperitoneally with normal saline. (2) The body weight of nude mice and transplanted tumor growth were ob-served and recorded, then inhibition rate of tumor growth was calculated. (3) The pathological features of transplanted tumor were studied under microscope. The expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) was comparatively studied in chemotherapy group and control group by SP immunohistochemical method and flow cytometry analysis. Results: (1) Body weight, tumor weight and inhibition rate of tumor growth of athymic mice bearing cancer: Body weights and tumor weights of nude mice in every 2/3 LD10 chemotherapy group were significantly lower than those of the control group (P < 0.05), and the inhibition rates of tumor growth were 83.1%, 75.5%, 84.6%, 87.9% and 91.0%, respectively. Body weights of athymic mice in every 1/3 LD10 chemotherapy group were lower than that of the control (P < 0.05). The results showed that the 2/3 LD10 chemotherapy groups could reflect the effect of combination chemotherapy on the nude mice and the clinical dependability was better. So the data of 2/3 LD10 chemotherapy groups were appropriated for successive study. (2) Immunohistochemical studies: The expressions of PCNA in every chemotherapy group were significantly lower than that of the control (P < 0.05). Moreover, the expression of PCNA in NP group was significantly lower than those of CMF, CAF, TP and Xeloda groups (P < 0.05), while the expressions of TP and Xeloda groups were significantly lower than those of CMF and CAF groups (P < 0.05). (3) FCM analysis: FI values of PCNA in every chemotherapy group were significantly lower than that of the control (P < 0.05). FI values of PCNA in TP and Xeloda groups were significantly lower than those of CMF and CAF groups (P < 0.05), while the value of NP group was significantly lower than that of CMF group (P < 0.05). (4) Relationship between PCNA expression and pathologic response: The expression of PCNA was significantly correlated with pathological therapeutic response of transplanted breast carcinoma (P = 0.001). Conclusion: In vivo chemosensitivity testing with 2/3 LD10 dosage combinations in nude mice bearing cancer can reflect the effects of chemotherapeutics and affects of organism exactly. Various chemotherapy regimens all can decrease the expression of PCNA in breast cancer. The PCNA can be regarded as the factor to judge the response to chemotherapy, and it become possibly one of the prospective factors in the selection of chemotherapy regimen and play a rule in individualized therapy in the clinic.展开更多

In this study, a two-layer SiC coating was prepared on carbon-carbon composites by a Spark plasma sintering technology at 1350°C for 1 min. The coating was mainly composed of β-SiC and Si and well bonded with the substrate. The double SiC coating could effectively protect the C/C composites from oxidation at 1600°C for 120 h, and the corresponding weight loss was only 2.62%.展开更多

Nevertheless, with the fusion of multiple languages and the continuous emergence of new words, most current neural machine translation systems based on von Neumann’s architecture have seen a substantial increase in the number of devices for the decoder, resulting in high-energy consumption rate. Here, a multilevel photosensitive blending semiconductor optoelectronic synaptic transistor(MOST) with two different trapping mechanisms is firstly demonstrated, which exhibits 8 stable and well distinguishable states and synaptic behaviors such as excitatory postsynaptic current, short-term memory, and long-term memory are successfully mimicked under illumination in the wavelength range of 480–800 nm. More importantly, an optical decoder model based on MOST is successfully fabricated,which is the first application of neuromorphic device in the field of neural machine translation, significantly simplifying the structure of traditional neural machine translation system.Moreover, as a multi-level synaptic device, MOST can further reduce the number of components and simplify the structure of the codec model under light illumination. This work first applies the neuromorphic device to neural machine translation, and proposes a multi-level synaptic transistor as the based cell of decoding module, which would lay the foundation for breaking the bottleneck of machine translation.展开更多
