PurposeTo develop a novel RGD microbubbles (RGD-MBs) and to evaluate the targeted binding effect with endothelial cells in vitro.Materials and MethodsThe RGD peptide was coated onto the microbubbles through biotin-avidin linkage including 10 μg/ml and 30 μg/ml groups. The microbubbles not carrying RGD peptide were obtained as negative control. Blocking studies were performed with pre-incubation of the cells with RGD peptide for 2 hours. The microbubbleswere characterized by Accusizer 780 and optical microscope. The binding specificity of RGD-MBs withανβ3-expressing mouse endothelial cells was determined with competitive inhibition experiments in vitro. The attachment study was performed using parallel plate flow chamber to investigate the dynamic adhesion on endothelial cells at various shear stresses.ResultsThe RGD-MBs had an average diameter of (4.09±0.07) μm. The binding RGD-MBs per cell were 2.98±0.35 for 10 μg/ml RGD and 1.78±0.23 for 30 μg/ml RGD. RGD-MBs binding to mouse endothelial cells decreased 54.64% and 67.00% in the presence of RGD peptide at a concentration of 10 μg/ml and 30 μg/ml respectively. When the shear stress was under 1.5 dyne/cm2, the accumulation rate was increased with the increase of shear stress (P<0.05). Accumulation rate reached the maximum (48.72±4.26) RGD-MBs/min at wall share stress of 1.5 dyne/cm2, and decreased as sheer stress >1.5 dyne/cm2 (P<0.05). Conclusion The RGD-MBs can specifically bind to endothelial cells, indicating its usefulness as ultrasonic molecular probe in monitoring integrinανβ3 expression during tumor angiogenesis, and is potentially valuable for in tumor early-staging and prognosis.

Charged particle therapy offers a better effect and obvious dosimetric and biological advantages over conventional radiotherapy in tumor control.Charged particles form Bragg peak in the dose distribution in tissue, enable most of energy to be deposited in the target region, and thus enhance tumor control and reduce the damage to normal tissues surrounding the tumor.With the increasing demand for charged particle therapy and the advances in particle accelerator, particle therapy technology is developing rapidly.The core apparatus of particle therapy facility is particle accelerator, and the accelerator type, particle type, and implementation technique determine the performance and therapeutic effect of the facility.This article provides a detailed comparative analysis of various particle therapies.Statistical data show that proton therapy is dominant in particle therapy, and high construction difficulty, large facility size, and extremely high cost have limited the development of heavy ion therapy.Nowadays, there are still some technical problems regarding charged particle therapy, and more clinical trials are required.

Objective To study if the dose verification technique for three dimensional conformal radiation therapy ( 3 DCRT) can be applied for simplified intensity modulation radiation therapy ( sIM RT). Methods From 1988 patients treated by sIMRT in our department,12 were chosen randomly for the study. For each case,3 differert plans of 3DCRT,sIMRT,and IMRT were worked out with Pinnacle TPS,and the dose verification for each plan was carried out with Elekta Precise LA by using 2D diode-matrix of MapCHECK Model 1175. Results For slMRT,the overall average percentages of pass points for DD(DTA) 2% (2 mm) ,3% (3 mm)and 4% (4 mm) were 90.5% ,94.8% and 98.2% reapectively,which were slightly worse when comparing with those of 3DCRT with deterioration of 1.9% (t=2.19,P=0.040) ,1.0% (t= 1.52,P=0.144) and 0.2% (t=0.05,P=0.623), but slightly better comparing with those of IMRT with increment of 2.1% (t=2.17,P=0.041) ,1.5% (t=2.62,P=0.016) and 1.5% (t=3.68,P=0.001) for 2% (2 mm) ,3% (3 mm) and 4% (4 mm) ,respectively. Conclusions The sIMRT technique simplifies the complicated dose verification procedure of I MRT. When the sIMRT technique is formally used, the procedure of dose distribution verification for 3DCRT can be used directly for slMRT.

Objective To evaluate effects of ascorbic acid on proliferative activity of cultured melanocytes in vitro, as well as on H2O2?induced oxidative injury in melanocytes. Methods The optimal concentration of ascorbic acid solution and median lethal dose of H2O2 solution were determined by CCK?8 assay for the following experiment. Cultured melanocytes were classified into the control group, ascorbic acid group, H2O2 group and combination group. During the first 24 hours, the control group and H2O2 group were treated with M254 medium, while the ascorbic acid group and combination group with ascorbic acid solution. During an additional 24?hour period, the control group and ascorbic acid group were treated with M254 medium, while the H2O2 group and combination group with H2O2 solution at the median lethal dose. After 48?hour treatment, CCK?8 assay and flow cytometry were performed to determine the survival rate and apoptosis rate of melanocytes, respectively, in the 4 groups. Biochemical methods were used to evaluate the superoxide dismutase(SOD)activity and determine the malondialdehyde(MDA)concentration, and fluores?cent staining was conducted to detect the level of reactive oxygen species(ROS)in the control group, H2O2 group and combination group. Results The optimal concentration of ascorbic acid solution was 1 000μmol/L, and the median lethal dose of H2O2 solution was 300 μmol/L. The cell survival rate, apoptosis rate, SOD activity, MDA concentration and ROS fluorescence intensity in the control group were 100% ± 4.99%, 6.90% ± 0.87%, 54.71 ± 4.75 U/mgprot, 263.39 ± 20.17 nmol/mgprot and 342.16 ± 27.36 respectively. Compared with the control group, H2O2 solution could significantly increase the cell apoptosis rate(16.47%± 1.07%), SOD activity(103.62 ± 10.44 U/mgprot), MDA concentration(493.70 ± 31.36 nmol/mgprot)and intracellular ROS fluorescence intensity (782.48 ± 36.25), but decrease the survival rate of melanocytes (39.07% ± 2.94%), while ascorbic acid solution markedly down?regulated the H2O2?induced apoptosis (11.83%± 0.95%), SOD activity(76.73 ± 5.20 U/mgprot), MDA concentration(371.82 ± 23.05 nmol/mgprot) and ROS level (475.64 ± 52.18), but increased the cell survival rate (74.31% ± 5.53%). Conclusion Ascorbic acid solution at the concentration of 1 000 μmol/L can not only promote proliferative activity of melanocytes, but also protect melanocytes from H2O2?induced oxidative injury.

Objective To verify the dose delivery accuracy of volumetric-modulated arc therapy plan by log-file analysis of linear accelerator that can be created when a dynamic delivery occurs.Methods Accelerator log file in binary format recorded the accelerator execution plan for each control point corresponding to the gantry angle,multi-leaf collimator leave position,cumulative machine monitor units ( MU).These information were read from the accelerator log file with Matlab7.1,then the original control points in the plan file replaced the corresponding information for the log,which generated a new plan.New plan was exported into the planning system to reculculate the dose.The volume dose histogram (DVH) and dose distribution was contrasted to determine the accuracy of the accelerator plan of implementation between two plans.Results Compared with the original plan,antry angle difference over ± 1° accounted for about 35% of the entire arc of control points in 4 of 12 arcs and the percentage of the leave error of ±0.5 mm was about 95%.MU error of a single control point was larger,but the cumulative MU for each are was small which was located between-0.09% to 0.11% in the selected 12 arcs.Between the targets,the maximum dose,minimum dose,the mean dose differences were from-0.07% to 0.42%,-0.38% to 0.40%,0.03% to 0.08%,respectively.The maximum dose and mean dose differences of organs at risks were located from-1.16% to 2.51%,-1.21% to 3.12%,respectively.Conclusions Accelerator log-file analysis to verify the VMAT plan nan be supplyed to the experimental method supplement.
