BACKGROUND:Studies have shown that bisphosphonates can act on osteosarcoma cels, but the comparative analysis of bisphosphonates and cisplatin, a traditional first-line chemotherapy drug, is rarely reported. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the differences between bisphosphonates and cisplatin to inhibitin vitroproliferation of osteosarcoma cels and induce cel apoptosis. METHODS: Subcultured MG-63 cel lines were intervened with different concentrations of bisphosphonates and cisplatin, respectively, and cels with no treatment served as negative controls (blank group). Cel inhibition rate was detected using MTT method, and cel morphology was observed using fluorescent staining. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After intervention with different concentrations of bisphosphonates and cisplatin for different time, the growth inhibition rate of MG-63 cels was significantly higher as compared with the blank group (P < 0.05). But there was no difference in the growth inhibition rate between the bisphosphonates and cisplatin groups at 24, 48 and 72 hours (P > 0.05). These findings indicate that bisphosphonates has obvious inhibitory effect on the growth of osteosarcoma celsin vitro, and its inhibitory effect is similar to that of cisplatin.

BACKGROUND: Most of studies focus on the biomechanical characteristics of thoracic spine neoplasm, but there is little report on the fracture risk in the patients with vertebral hemangioma through finite element analysis.OBJECTIVE: To establish a finite element model of vertebral hemangioma, and to analyze its biomechanical characteristics, and assess the risk of vertebral fracture.METHODS: Three-dimensional finite element models of T12-L2 vertebrae from normal individuals, the patients with vertebral hemangioma (hemangioma accounting for 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% of the vertebral cancellous bone) and bone cement filling were established, respectively, and then the mechanical characteristics were analyzed. The stress distribution and characters of each model were determined under a vertical static pressure of 600 N.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Three-dimensional finite element models of T12-L2 vertebrae were established successfully. Under static pressure, the stress distribution of L1 cortical bone showed no significant difference among models, and the maximum stress all occurred at the base of pedicle, zygapophysial joint and isthmus. (2) The stress distribution did not differ significantly between vertebral hemangioma accounting for 20%-40% of vertebral cancellous bone with complete cortical bone and normal ones, but which differed significantly in hemangioma accounting for 60%-80%. (3) To conclude, the established thoracolumbar three-dimensional model is available. Additionally,biomechanical tests manifest that the completeness of cortical bone and destruction ratio of cancellous bone destruction are key factors for the fracture risk of vertebral hemangioma.

Objective To investigate the significance of sonographic patterns of thyroid calcification in diagnosis of thyroid nodule.Methods 235 patients with 355 thyroid nodules were retrospectively analyzed.Nodule calcification size,distribution and pattern were observed.Results The incidence of calcification in benign and malignant nodules was 30.3％ (89/294)and 73.7％ (45/61) respectively.The difference had statistical significance(x2 =24.3,P ＜0.01).The rate of microcalcification in cancer was 47.5％ (29/61),higher than that in benign one 3.1％ (9/294)(x2 =99.1,P ＜ 0.01).Coarse calcification in benign nodules and malignant lesion was 27.2％ (80/294)and 26.2％ (16/61)respectively.The difference had no statistical significance(x2 =0.42,P ＞0.05).Conclusions Microcalcification of thyroid nodules is a specific index for thyroid carcinoma.Any type of sonographically detected calcification represents risk of malignancy.Not only microcalcification,these cases should raise the suspicion of malignancy in coarse calcification,especially involving a solitary nodule and irregular shape.

Objective To observe the effect of pioglitazone on peroxisome proliferators activated receptors (PPARγ) mRNA expression in rats with acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP). Methods 54 rats were randomly divided into sham group, ANP group, and pioglitazone group. ANP was induced by the retrograde injection of sodium taurocholate into pancreatic duct. The levels of serum amylase at 3 h, 6 h, and 12 h after ANP induction were determined and pancreatic pathological scores were measured, and the expression of pancreatic PPARγ mRNA was determined by RT-PCR. Results The levels of serum amylase and pancreatic pathological scores at 6 h in ANP group were (7171 ± 1636) U/L and 13.00 ±2.36; which were significantly higher than those in sham group [ (523 ± 166)U/L and 1.67 ± 234, P < 0. 01 ]. While the expressions of PPARγ mRNA were weakly expressed in ANP gyoup and sharm group(0. 18 ± 0.05 vs 0. 22 ±0. 03, P > 0. 05). The levels of serum amylase and pancreatic pathological scores at 6 h in pioglitazone group were (4504 ± 1901 )U/L and 9.00 ±0.89, which were significantly lower than those in ANP group (P <0. 05).While the expressions of PPARγ mRNA was higher than that in ANP group (0.56 ±0.05 vs 0. 18 ±0.05, P <0.05). Conclusions The protective role of pioglitazone on ANP rats was closely correlated with up-regulation of PPARγgene expression.
