Early small hepatocellular carcinoma (SHCC) can be cured by surgery and interventional operation to improve the survival rate of paitents,so the accurate diagnosis of SHCC is of great significance.Presently,the dynamic contrast-enhanced MR scan could only obtain single arterial phase imaging by single breath hold,and it had breathing motion artifact because of the long scanning time.The early arterial transient enhancement of SHCC was easy to be misdiagnosed.The CAIPIRINHA-Dixon-TWIST-VIBE (CDT-VIBE) sequence couldobtain high-quality multiple arterial phases images and hepatic arterial dominant (HAD) images in short-time scanning.And it could not only detect small focal lesions which were difficult to find by other imaging examination,but also find the start enhanced difference between lesions which were relevant to lesions property and blood supplement.The CDT-VIBE has a high clinical value in diagnosis and treatment of SHCC.The research progresses of CDT-VIBE in diagnosis of SHCC was reviewed in this article.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of nicotinamide adenine dinucleoside phosphate oxidases 1(NOX1) and nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB) in tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)-induced oxidative damage in A549 cells. METHODS: i) TNF-α was used to stimulated A549 cells at the concentrations of 0.0, 10.0, 25.0 and 50.0 μg/L. Cell inhibition rate in each group was tested by CCK-8 assay to select the appropriate concentration. ii) A549 cells in logarithmic growth phase were divided into blank control group, solvent control group, TNF-α group, diphenylene iodine(DPI) group and TNF-α+DPI group for NOX1 inhibitor experiment. Logarithmic growth phase A549 cells were divided into blank control group, TNF-α group, BAY11-7082 group and TNF-α+BAY11-7082 group for NF-κB inhibitor experiment. The relative expression of NOX1 and p65 protein in each group was detected by Western blot method. The relative expression of intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS) were detected by flow cytometry. RESULTS: i) The inhibition rate of A549 cells increased with the increase of TNF-α dose(P<0.05), and 25.0 μg/L was selected as the stimulation dose of TNF-α in subsequent experiments. ii) The relative expression of NOX1, p65 protein and ROS in the TNF-α group was higher than that in the blank control group, solvent control group and DPI group, respectively(P<0.05). The above indexes in TNF-α+DPI group were lower than that in TNF-α group(P<0.05), but higher than that in DPI group(P<0.05). The relative expression of NOX1, p65 protein and ROS in the TNF-α group were higher than that in the blank control group and the BAY11-7082 group(P<0.05), while the above indicators in the TNF-α+BAY11-7082 group were lower than that in the TNF-α group(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Inhibition of NOX1 or NF-κB can alleviate the oxidative damage induce by TNF-α in A549 cells.
