Intraperitoneal administration of ginseng butanol fraction(GBF) to chronic morphinization in male Sprague-Dawley rats inhibited the development of tolerance to the analgesic effect and hyperthermic action of morphine. Rats were rendered tolerant to morphine by subcutaneous multiple morphine injections for a period of 8 days. The development of tolerance was evidenced by the decreased analgesic response to morphine and inhibition of tolerance by the greater analgesic response. Concomitant administration of morphine with GBF blocked the tolerance to the hyperthermic effect of morphine as evidenced by elevation of body temperature by morphine. Dopamine receptor sensitivity was enhanced in morphine tolerant rats as measured by apomorphine induced in spontaneous motor activity. GBF administration also blocked dopamine receptor supersensitivity induced by chronic morphinization.

Purpose: This study aimed to examine the outcomes of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in patients with peritoneal metastasis (PM) of advanced gastric cancer (AGC). Materials and Methods: Between May 2015 and June 2017, 38 CRS and HIPEC procedures were performed in patients with PM of AGC at the Dankook University Hospital. We prospectively collected and analyzed data regarding PM grade, morbidity and mortality rates, and short-term follow-up results (median, 13.5 months). Results: The mean peritoneal cancer index was 15 (range, 0-39). Complete cytoreduction was achieved in 21 patients (55.2%), whereas complications occurred in 16 (42.1%) and 2 (5.7%) patients died. The overall median patient survival time was 19 months. The patients who underwent complete cytoreduction had a median survival time of 26 months, which was significantly longer than the median survival time of 16 months in the patients who did not undergo complete cytoreduction (P=0.006). Conclusions: CRS with HIPEC may have a beneficial effect in patients with PM of AGC. However, the rates of complications and mortality associated with this combined therapeutic approach are high. Therefore, this treatment should be performed only in selected patients by surgeons experienced in the field of gastric cancer with PM.

목 적 : 신생아 질식은 신생아 사망과 영구적 신경발달 장애의 중요한 원인이다. 이에 대한 여러 치료 방법이 시도되어 왔으나 현재까지 임상에 적용 가능한 치료 혹은 예방법은 개발되지 못하고 있다. 산모의 고열은 신생뇌에 악영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 왔으나 최근 동물에서 시행한 고온 전처치가 뇌손상을 예방한다는 상반된 효과가 보고된 바 있다. 이에 저자들은 신생 동물의 저산소 허혈 뇌손상에 있어서의 고온 전처치의 효과를 조사하고자 이 연구를 시행하였다. 방 법 : 신생쥐를 사용하여 생후 6일에 이들을 두 군으로 나누어 전처지군은 $40^{\circ}C$의 고온 환경에, 대조군은 상온에 2시간 노출시켰다. 24시간 후 두 군 모두 편측 온목동맥 결찰 후 산소 농도 8%의 저산소 환경에 2시간 노출시켜 저산소 허혈을 유도하였으며 저산소 허혈후 7일에 뇌를 적출하여 뇌손상 정도를 비교하였다. 결 과 : 고온 전처치군 16례 중 5례(31.2%)에서 뇌손상이 관찰되어 대조군(17례 중 11례, 64.7%)에 비해 유의성 있게 뇌손상 빈도가 낮았다(P<0.05). 뇌피질, 해마, striatum 및 시상에서 관찰한 손상 부위의 분포 양상과 손상 정도는 전처치군과 대조군 사이에 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 결 론 : 신생쥐에 있어서 2시간의 고온 전처치는 저산소 허혈 뇌손상의 빈도를 감소시켰다. 이는 산모의 발열이 저산소 허혈 뇌손상 보호 효과를 나타낼 가능성을 시사하나 임상 적용에 앞서 다양한 환경 온도 및 장시간의 노출 시간으로 그 효과와 안정성에 대한 연구가 계속되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.

Heat shock ($43^{\circ}C$ for 60 minutes) is sufficient to induce apoptosis in a wide number of cell lines. In this study, we asked whether DNA strand breaks are responsible for this phenomenon. Using the highly sensitive comet assay for DNA damage detection, we were unable to demonstrate DNA breaks immediately after heat shock in Raji human Iymphoid cells. It showed that DNA breaks were not necessary for hyperthermic apoptosis, since its activity is indicative of DNA lesions. Here, we present a suggestion that a protein(s) is the major target for heat shock apoptosis. We firstly found glycerol, which reportedly stabilizes protein structure, showed a protective effect in Raji cells against hyperthermic apoptosis. In addition, quercetin, which modulates transcription of the heat shock protein family members, enhanced apoptotic death induced by hyperthermia. Furthermore, Raji cells are protected by a pre-mild heat treatment prior to the killing dose of heat shock.

본 논문에서는 원적외선 온열효과가 자율 신경계에 미치는 영향을 심박변동(HRV)을 이용하여 평가 하였다. 측정된 심박변동신호를 FFT 의한 전력스펙트럼을 구함으로써 자율 신경계의 반응 특성을 고찰하고 Poincare plot 분석 방법을 이용하여 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 실험을 통해 심박변동 신호분석해보면 원적외선 온열에 노출되기 전에 비해 노출된 후에 매우 복잡한 모습임을 관찰 할 수 있었는데 이것은 자율신경계가 관여하는 심혈관계 제어 메커니즘이 원적외선 온열에 노출되기 전보다 노출된 후에 더욱 복잡함을 반영하는 것으로 분석된다.

Purpose: To investigate the efficacy and safety of intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IPC) for patients with gastric cancer and to compare effects between different regimens of IPC. Method: Randomized controlled trials comparing the effects of surgery plus intraperitoneal chemotherapy with surgery alone or comparing the efficacy between different regimens of intraperitoneal chemotherapy were searched for in Medline, Embase, Pubmed, the Cochrane Library and the Chinese BioMedical Disc and so on by two independent reviewers. After quality assessment and data extraction, data were pooled for meta-analysis using RevMan5.16 software. Tests of interaction were used to test for differences of effects among subgroups grouped according to different IPC regimens. Results: Fifteen RCTs with a total of 1713 patients with gastric cancer were included for quality assessment and data extraction. Ten studies were judged to be of fair quality and entered into meta-analysis. Hyperthermic intraoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HR=0.60, P<0.01), hyperthermic intraoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy plus postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HR=0.47, P<0.01) and normothermic intraoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HR=0.70, P=0.01) were associated with a significant improvement in overall survival. Tests of interaction showed that hyperthermia and additional postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy did not impact on its effect. Further analysis revealed that intraperitoneal chemotherapy remarkably decrease the rate of postoperative hepatic metastasis by 73% (OR=0.27, 95% CI=0.12 to 0.67, P<0.01). However, intraperitoneal chemotherapy increased risks of marrow depression (OR=5.74, P<0.01), fever (OR=3.67, P=0.02) and intra-abdominal abscess (OR=3.57, P<0.01). Conclusion: The present meta-analysis demonstrates that hyperthermic intraoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy and normothermic intraoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy should be recommended to treat patients with gastric cancer because of improvement in overall survival. However, it is noteworthy that intraperitoneal chemotherapy can increase the risks of marrow depression, intra-abdominal abscesses, and fever.

Aim: To elucidate the effects of hyperthermic $CO_2$ pneumoperitoneum on human gastric AGS cells. Methods: Based on a newly devised in vitro study model, we evaluated the anti-cancer effects of HT-$CO_2$ ($42-44^{\circ}C$ for 2-4h) on human gastric cancer cells, and also the corresponding mechanisms. Results: HT-$CO_2$ ($42-44^{\circ}C$ for 2-4h) severely inhibited cell proliferation as assessed by Cell Counting Kit-8 assay, while inducing apoptosis in a temperature- and time-dependent manner demonstrated by annexin-V/PI flow cytometry and morphological analysis (Hoechst/PI fluorescence). In addition, it was found that HT-$CO_2$ ($42-44^{\circ}C$ for 2-4h) promoted the up-regulation of Bax by western blotting. Significantly, it could also suppress gastric cancer cell invasion and metastasis by in vitro invasion and motility assay. Conclusion: In conclusion, HT-$CO_2$ had an efficacious cytotoxic effect on gastric cancer cells through Bax-induced mitochondrial apoptotic signaling. Our studies indicate that it may serve as a potential therapy for peritoneal carcinomatosis of gastric cancer. Further investigations in vivo using animal models are now urgently needed.

In our previous study [14], we found that heat-shock exposure did not stimulate the neutral trehalase activity in Sacchromyces cerevisiae KNU5377, but did in ATCC24858. Consequently, the trehalose content in KNU5377 became 2.6 times higher than that in ATCC24858. Because trehalose has been shown to stabilize the structure and function of some macromolecules, the present work was focused to elucidate the relationship between trehalose content of these strains and thermal stabilities of whole cells, through differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and to predict critical targets calculated from the hyperthermic cell killing rates. These analyses showed that the prominent DSC transition of both strains gave identical $T_m$ (transition temperature) values in exponentially growing cells, and that the $T_m$ values of critical targets was about $3^{\circ}C$ higher in KNU5377 than in ATCC24858. Both heat-shocked KNU5377 and ATCC24858 cells displayed similar shifts in their DSC transition profiles. On the other hand, the $T_m$ value of the critical target of KNU5377 was decreased by $2.1^{\circ}C$, which was still higher than ATCC24858 showing no changes. In view of these results, the intrinsic thermotolerance of KNU5377 did not appear to result from the stability of entire cellular components, but rather possibly from that of particular macromolecules, including critical targets, even though it should be investigated in more details. Although the trehalose levels in heat-shocked cells are significantly different, as described in our previous study [14], the overall pattern of thermal stabilities and their predicted critical targets in two heat-shocked strains seemed to be identical. These data suggest that the trehalose levels examined before and after heat shock of exponentially growing cells are not closely correlated with the stabilities of whole cells and/or critical targets in both yeast strains.

The effect of heat on the cancer have been keen since ancient orint medic. Quantitative biologic techniques were applied to the investigation of heat, and the resulting studies have defined a firm rationale for the expectation that hypertherima will be useful in the treatment of cancer. This promise led to activity in developing physical means to produce and measure hyperthermia in patients. Hyperthermic treatments for cancer are grouped into two categories according two the amount of tissue bing heated during the treatments. The categories commonly used are localized, regional, and whole body hyperthermia. Hyperthermia is a situation referring to yang-heat. In orient medic, It refers to vital-qi and the driving force of life activities. Our paper reviewed the present state of the the hyperthemia, outline some major impediments to progress at this time, and suggest researching approches in order to define the role of hyperthermia in the treatment of cancer.
