Purpose To explore whether potassium perchlorate shall be taken orally to occlude gastric mucosa before taking 99Tcm-3PRGD2 SPECT/CT gastric image,and to provide theoretical evidence for clinical application.Material and Methods Eighteen adult male Wistar rats were divided into three groups randomly:low dose group of potassium perchlorate (36 mg/kg),high dose group (72 mg/kg) and normal saline control group,with six rats in each group.All rats were conducted with gavage of 1 ml/100 g respectively and,one hour later,injected with 99Tcm-3PRGD2 intravenously to rat tail.Then 99Tcm-3PRGD2 gastric image was taken two hours later.The same film reader carried out audio analysis of the image and then gastric and radioactivity ratio (T/N) on the lung of the same side were analyzed.Results Preparation of 99Tcm-3PRGD2 was simple and radiochemical purity of final products was (98.90±0.70)%.Rat weights in high dose group of potassium perchlorate,low dose group and control group were (479.7t21.5) g,(481.0± 17.6) g and (478.5± 16.5) g,respectively.The differences were of no statistical significance (F=0.027,P>0.05).T/N values in rat stomach area were 1.2219±0.0165,1.2204±0.0167 and 1.2186±0.0175,respectively.The differences were of no statistical significance (F=0.055,P>0.05).Conclusion Preparation of 99Tcm-3PRGD2 is simple and radiochemical purity is high.There is great possibility of no need to take potassium perchlorate orally to occlude gastric mucosa when taking 99Tcm-3PRGD2 SPECT/CT image (especially when the radiochemical purity of final products is over 98%),making it convenient in clinical promotion and utilization.

Objective:
To investigate the effects of luteolin on the invasion and migration of the human tongue squamous carcinoma cell line SCCl5.
Methods :
SCC15 cells were treated with various concentrations of luteolin (5, 10, 15, 20, 40 and 60 μg/mL) for 24, 48 and 72 h. The MTT assay was then carried out to estimate the proliferation of SCC15 cells treated with various concentrations of luteolin. SCC15 cells were treated with various concentrations of luteolin (1, 5 and 10 μg/mL), and the migration of SCC15 cells was examined in wound healing assays. SCC15 cells were treated with various concentrations of luteolin (5 and 10 μg/mL) for 24 h, and the migration and invasion of the cells were examined in Transwell migration/invasion assays. SCC15 cells were treated with various concentrations of luteolin (10, 20 and 40 μg/mL) for 24 h, and the conditioned medium was collected. The levels of the gelatinases matrix metalloproteinases-2 and -9 (MMP-2, MMP-9) in the conditional medium were detected by gelatin zymography assays.
Results :
The MTT assay showed that luteolin had a substantial inhibitory effect on the proliferation of SCC15 cells in a concentration- and time-dependent manner (P < 0.01). The migration, invasion and proliferation of the SCCl5 cell lines were significantly lower after treatment with luteolin than in the control. The numbers of migrating and invading SCCl5 cells were 340.00 ± 22.94, 52.67 ± 6.94 and 6.57 ± 0.80 versus 85.67 ± 5.18, 39.67 ± 4.63 and 2.67 ± 0.29, respectively (P < 0.01). The enzyme activities of MMP-2 and MMP-9 decreased significantly in response to luteolin treatment in a concentration-dependent manner (P < 0.01).
Conclusion
Luteolin inhibited the invasion and migration of SCC15 cells by reducing the activities of MMP-2 and MMP-9.
