Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of artificial blood vessel sheath around re-nal vein for the treatment of left renal vein entrapment syndrome. Methods Eight cases with left re-nal vein entrapment syndrome (7 males and 1 female, mean age, 16 years) with history of gross hema-turia for 6 to 36 months were reviewed. Doppler ultrasound reports suggested compression of the left renal vein at mesenteric angle in all eases. CT scan showed the abnormal angle between aorta and su-perior mesenterie artery in 5 cases. Cystscopy showed hematuria from the left ureteral orifice in 5 ca-ses. All cases with left renal vein entrapment syndrome were treated ,with the method of putting artifi-cial blood vessel as a sheath around left renal vein. Results The operations were all successful. The average operation time was 150 min, the average blood loss was 50 ml, and the average hospital stay after operation was 9 d. No surgical complications occurred. The gross hcmaturia disappeared in 6 ca-ses and Doppler ultrasound showed that left renal vein outflow was normal in 7 when the patients dis-charged from the hospital. The gross hematuria disappeared during 2-24 months' follow-up in 7 pa-tients. Conclusions The surgical aim of renal vein entrapment syndrome is to reduce the compres-sion of renal vein. The method of putting artificial blood vessel around renal vein could be a simple, safe and effective method.

Objective To synthesize a new kind of acid-sensitive doxorubicin prodrug nanoparticles and to evaluate its anti-brain glioma effect and efficiency through blood-brain barrier (BBB). Methods The prodrug acid-sensitive poly-ethylene glycol (PEG)-doxorubicin (PEG-DOX) copolymer was synthesized by Schiff base reaction, and PEG-DOX pro-drug nanoparticles (PEG-DOX NPs) were prepared by self-assembling. The character of PEG-DOX copolymer was detected by dynamic light scattering (DLS) instrument and 1H NMR. The morphology of PEG-DOX NPs was observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The character of drug release was detected by UV mothed. The cellular uptake efficiency of glio-ma cells to PEG-DOX NPs was observed by inverted fluorescence microscope. The anti-brain glioma effects of PEG-DOX NPs and Free DOX were studied by MTT mothed. PS80-PEG-DOX NPs were gained by the modification of PEG-DOX NPs with Tween 80. Nine BALB/c mice were separated into Free DOX, PEG-DOX NPs and PS80-PEG-DOX NPs groups by ran-dom drawing lots. The mean fluorescence intensity of brain and main organs were observed by in vivo imaging system. Re-sults The copolymer of PEG-DOX can self-assemble into nanoparticles with the diameter of 100 nm. PEG-DOX NPs can quickly release DOX in acid environment. Although PEG-DOX NPs had slow cancer cell uptake than Free DOX, it had lon-ger accumulation. MTT results showed that PEG-DOX NPs had concentration dependent anti-brain glioma effect. Indepen-dent samples t-test indicated that the efficiency through BBB was significantly higher in PS80-PEG-DOX NPs group than that of Free DOX group and PEG-DOX NPs group. Conclusion PEG-DOX NPs show well anti-brain glioma effect in vi-tro, and can across BBB with high efficiency after modification, which make it possible for a potential therapeutic prodrug for brain glioma.

Objective To compare the biodistribution difference of peptide nanofibers, which were self-assembled by peptide composed of L-or D-amino acids, respectively, and provide the guidance for the in vivo applications of peptide nanofibers. Methods The Nap-GFFYGRGD (L-peptide) and Nap-GDFDFDYGRGD (D-peptide, F and Y were D-configura-tion) were synthesized with solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). The structure of the two peptides was identified by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H NMR) and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HR-MS). The two peptides could self-assemble into nanofibers during the cooling process after being boiled. The morphology of the nanofibers was observed with transmission electron microscope (TEM). The peptides were radiolabeled with iodine-125 and self-assembled into nanofi-bers, which were then administered into BALB/c mice via tail vein. The blood samples were collected and then mice were sacrificed at 1, 3, 6 and 12 hours. The main organs (heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, stomach, large intestine, small intes-tine, muscle and brain) were isolated and weighed. The radioactivity of organs was detected with a gamma counter. Results The two peptides could self-assemble into nanofibers with diameter of 10-20 nanometers. There were no significant differ-ences in the diameter and morphology between two naofibers. There was significant difference in the biodistribution between two nanofibers. The blood concentration of D-fiber was (8.17±0.32)%ID/g at one hour after injection and then cleared rapid-ly from the blood. The blood concentration of L-fiber was (5.96±0.30)%ID/g at one hour after injection and maintained at a stable level for six hours. The L-fiber was mainly distributed in stomach while the D-fiber was mainly accumulated in liver. Conclusion The configuration of amino acids (D/L) could affect the biodistribution of peptide nanofibers dramatically, which may provide the guidance for the medical applications of peptide nanofibers.
