ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effect and the anti-tumor mechanism of nucleoside combination on human hepatoma cell line Bel-7402 with Arg-Gly-Asp sequence labeled by ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide (RGD-USPIO).Methods The tumor cells Bel-7402 of logarithmic phlyhase were divided into experimental group and control group,treated with 1 mmol/L nucleoside combination and 1640 medium respectively.The two group were co-cultured for 48 h,and were added RGD-USPIO and co-cultured for 6 h.Then the two groups were proceeded with MR scanning,and the signal intensity of T2WI were measured.After extraction of the total RNA and protein of experiment group and control group,the expression of integrin avβ3 was detected using real-time PCR and Western blot.Results The T2WI signal intensity of experimental group (997.35±42.83) was higher than that of control group (241.05±15.36,t 28.79,P＜0.01).Compared with control group,the expression of integrin αvβ3 mRNA in experimental group was (0.22±0.02) times (t=4.50,P＜0.01).According to Western blot,the protein bands of experimental group were relatively lighter than that of control group,the expression of integrin αvβ3 in experimental group was lower (t =11.88,P＜0.01).Conclusion Nucleoside combination has anti-tumor effect by inhibiting integrin ligand-receptor binding,and the anti tumor mechanism may be related to the induction of tumor cell apoptosis.MR molecular probes can conveniently and accurately evaluate the anti-tumor effect of nucleoside combination on Bel-7402 cells.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the extraction and separation of anti-tumor active ingredients from fresh Gekko swinhonis. Meth-ods:The extraction was carried out with ethanol at different concentrations by various methods. The extract was purified by HPLC after deproteinization and degreasing using a repeated freezing and thawing method. MTT was used to detect the antitumor activity of the ex-tract. Results:The A value of extraction process groupⅢwith 85% ethanol ultrasonic extraction was (0. 548 ± 0. 045) with the high-est tumor inhibition rate, and compared with the control group, the difference was significant (P<0. 05). Conclusion:The results of pharmacodynamics show that the optimum extraction technology is ultrasonic extraction with 85% ethanol.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the application of ultrasound and 64-slice spiral CT in the diagnosis of acute appendicitis. Methods Sixty-five patients with pathologically or clinally confirmed acute appendicitis were underwent ultrasound and CT examina-tion before operation or conservative treatment.Compared with pathology,the accuracy of CT and B-ultrasound imaging were ana-lyzed.Results Fifty-eight cases were correctly diagnosed by CT and 48 cases were correctly diagnosed by ultrasound,the accuracy was 89.23% (58/65)and 73.85% (48/65),respectively.There was a statistically significant difference between two groups (χ2 =5.1 1,P =0.024).Conclusion The accuracy of multi-slice spiral CT is higher than ultrasound in the diagnosis of acute appendicitis.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the value of multiple-mouse MRI in evaluating the therapeutic effect of endostatin for transplantation tumor models of colorectal carcinoma in mice.Methods 24 subcutaneously transplantation tumor’s models of colorectal carcinoma (CT-26) in mice were established, 1 week later, 16 tumor-bearing mice were sieved out and divided randomly into two groups: endostatin (ES) group and normal saline (NS) group, treated with intraperitoneal injection of endostatin 6 mg/kg?d 0.2 ml and equal volume of saline respectively for 14 days. Subsequently, MMMRI was performed, and then the mice were killed immediately and the tumors were cut into sections which were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E). Results Subcutaneous fat layer in NS group presented thinner or disappeared on T1WI,while subcutaneous fat layer in ES group presented thicker. The tumors presented inhomogeneous high signal and intratumoral stippled necrosis on T2WI. The tumor’s volumes measured by MRI and pathology were(2723.26?1136.91) mm3 and (3505.76?1350.12) mm3 respectively,there was no difference between these two measures. And there was correlation between MRI results and pathological results. There was no difference of absolute signal intensity between ES group and NS group on T1WI and T2WI. The signal intensity ratio of ES group (3.19?0.28) was higher than which of NS group (2.60?0.47) on T2WI, and there was no difference on T1WI. Conclusion The therapeutic effect for endostatin on transplantation tumor models of colorectal carcinoma in mice can be displayed distinctly in MMMR image, and the inhibition rate of results can be displayed exactly and noninvasively.
