Abstract:
Objective To investigate the value of molecular probe USPIO-PEG-sLeX in metastasis model of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Methods According to the pathological results of transplanted tumors of nude mice with nasopharyngeal carcinoma,the tumor-bearing mice were divided into metastatic group and non-metastatic group.T2 ? values of the transplanted tumors at four different time points were measured before and after the injection of USPIO-PEG-sLeX(t0=plain scan,t1=scan immediately after enhancement,t2=1 hour post-enhancement scan,t3=2 hours post-enhancement scan).ΔT2 ? and enhancing rates at t1 ,t2,t3 were calculated.Results The plain T2 ? values of the metastatic group and the non-metastatic group were 22.25±8.08 and 27.01±9.45,respectively.There was no significant difference between the two groups at t0 (P>0.05).The T2 ? values at t1,t2 and t3 were 11.57±4.02 and 24.82±7.84,10.09±4.88 and 24.15±8.74,12.46±5.63,23.42±7.12 respectively in the metastatic and non-metastatic groups,differences were statistically significant (P values were 0.005,0.008 and 0.01 9,respectively).ΔT2 ? values at time t1 ,t2 and t3 in nude mice in the metastatic and non-metastatic groups were 10.69±6.23,3.86±2.20,12.1 7±8.67 and 2.87±1.37,9.80±3.03,4.32±2.28 respectively.The differences were statistically significant (P values were 0.027,0.048 and 0.043,respectively).The enhancement rates at t1,t2 and t3 in nude mice in metastatic and non-metastatic groups were 45.98±14.03,7.10±5.18,5 1.1 5±22.70 and 1 1.04±6.01 ,44.05 ±13.92,12.09 ±7.54,respectively,with statistically significant differences (P values were 0.001,0.005 and 0.007,respectively).After two-way repeated-measures analysis of variance,there was a statistically significant difference in T2 ? values between the metastatic and non-metastatic groups (P=0.02<0.05).There was a statistically significant difference in T2 ? values at different times (P=0.001<0.05).There was an interaction between the metastatic and non-metastatic groups and the scan time (P=0.043<0.05).Conclusion USPIO-PEG-sLeX molecular probe can non- invasively monitor E-selectin expression,and has a good application prospect in monitoring the metastasis of nasopharyngeal carcino-ma xenograft models.
