Military Medical Sciences 2015;(1):12-17
Objective To establish a quick method to probe the environmental estrogen-like compounds via fluorescent imaging analysis in high content analysis (HCA) technology.Methods HCA assays were performed to quantitatively in-vestigate the effect of collected environmental pollutants , including bisphenol A , nonylphenol , 1,2-phenylenediamine , 4-aminophenol, resorcinol, 3-aminophenol, 1,4-phenylenediamine and 2,5-diaminotoluene on nuclear granules formation ( Foci-formation) of estrogen receptor α( ERα)-EGFR( enhanced green fluorescent protein ) fusion-protein, which was se-lected as a research model in this study .The results were confirmed by the ERαtranscriptional activity by luciferase as-says.Results Compounds 1,2-phenylenediamine, 4-aminophenol, resorcinol, 3-aminophenol, 1,4-phenylenediamine and 2,5-diaminotoluene sulfate could not induce the ERα-EGFR nuclear granule formation.17-β-Estradiol, bisphenol A, or nonylphenol enhanced ERα-EGFR nuclear granule formation in a dose-dependent manner .The EC50 value was (4.17 ± 0.41) nmol/L, (1.48 ±1.79) μmol/L,or (3.70 ±0.78) μmol/L, respectively.The minimum detectable concentration was 1 nmol/L (17-β-estradiol)and 300 nmol/L (bisphenol A, nonylphenol).In luciferase tests, 17-β-estradiol, bisphe-nol A, or nonylphenol increased ERαtranscriptional activity in a dose-dependent manner ,and the EC50 value was (4.46 ±0.56) nmol/L, (2.31 ±0.21) μmol/L, or (6.60 ±0.94) μmol/L, respectively.The minimum detectable concentration was 3 nmol/L (17-β-estradiol), 300 nmol/L (bisphenol A),and 1 μmol/L (nonylphenol).Conclusion As an efficient method for ERαagonist identification , HCA assays based on the cell image phenotypes analysis can be used in quick recog -nition of environmental compounds with ER agonist-like activity.In all experimental compounds , only bisphenol A and non-ylphenol have a clear ER agonist-like activity .

Objective To study the efficacy and safety of intravenous and intra-arterial thrombolytic therapy in acute cerebral infarction(ACI).Methods 65 patients with ACI were randomly divided in two groups:intra-arterial thrombolytic group (n=21) were intra-arterially administed with 250 000-500 000 units urokinase through femoral artery and intravenous thrombolytic group (n=44) were intravenously administed with 1.5 million units urokinase.Before and after treating, their neurological deficit scales were evaluated. The thrombin time (TT), prothrombin time (PT) and fibrinogen were detected before and after thrombolysis 6 h,3 d and 7 d.The CT scan was rechecked after thrombolysis 24 h.Results (1)ESS scales were higher in the intra-arterial infusion group than those in the intravenous infusion group at 2h, 6h, 24h, and 3d (all P

Objective To compare the differences of target-volume(PTV) coverage and organ at risk (OAR) protection between three dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) and intensity-modulated radiotherapy(IMRT) for patients with pelvis metastasis of cervical cancer underwent radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy. To explore the optimal treatment methods for pelvis metastasis of cervical cancer.Methods 10 patients with pelvis metastasis of cervical cancer underwent radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy were selected for this study. The images scanned by CT were transferred to treatment planning system to generate 3DCRT and IMRT plans. The impacts of 3DCRT on PTV were compared with those of IMRT. Isodose line and dose volume histograms(DVH) were used to evaluate to the dose-distribution in PTV and OAR. Results For 95 % confidence interval, the margin from CTV to PTV was 1 cm. Conformal indexs (CIs) of PTV for 3, 4, 5 and 6 fields 3DCRT were 0.46, 0.67, 0.68 and 0.68, respectively. When beyond 4 fields, the advantage of adding fields was not significant. CIs of PTV for 5, 7, 9, 11 and 13 fields IMRT were 0.75, 0.83 0.84, 0.85 and 0.85, respectively. When beyond 9 fields, the advantage of adding fields was not significant. The maximum dose of the bowl and spine cord in IMRT plans were lower than that in the 3DCRT plans (P <0.05). Maximum dose of OAR had no significant differences (includingt the bone, recttum and bladder) between IMRT and 3DCRT plans. Conclusion For patients with pelvis metastasis of cervical cancer after radical surgery, 4 fields planning in 3DCRT and 9 fields planning in IMRT are feasible. At high dose levels, the IMRT plans can more significantly protect the bowl and spine cord and decrease the radiation volume of colorectal and urinary bladder at risk than 3DCRT, so IMRT may potentially diminish probability of the normal tissue complications.
