Morphine has been reported to suppress human immune response. We aimed to observe the effects of morphine, fentanyl and tramadol on NF-kappa B and IL-2 from both laboratory and clinical perspective. Jurkat cells were incubated with ten times clinically relevant concentrations of morphine, fentanyl and tramadol before being stimulated with PMA. NF-kappa B binding activity and IL-2 levels were measured. In the clinical study, 150 consenting patients were randomized into 3 groups according to the analgesics used in them, namely, group morphine (M), group fentanyl (F) and group tramadol (T). IL-2 was measured preoperatively and 1, 3 and 24 h after operation. Consequently, NF-kappa B activation was suppressed by morphine and fentanyl but not by tramadol. IL-2 was significantly decreased by morphine and fentanyl but not by tramadol in vitro. In the PCA patients, IL-2 was decreased in group M and increased in group F postoperatively. Whereas in group T, IL-2 was unchanged 1 h after operation but was significantly elevated 3 and 24 h after operation. Our results showed that the inhibition of morphine on IL-2 was most probably related to its suppression on NF-kappa B. Fentanyl had different effects on human immune response in vitro and in vivo. Tramadol may have immune enhancing effect.

Results Partial osteoporosin and punctate calcifications could be seen on X-ray and CT , in the early and middle stages , which presented as iso-/low-signal on T_1WIand iso-/high-signal on T_2WI in the center of the bone infarct with a tortuous low-signal on T_1WI and high-signal on T_2WI zonearound.In the later stages,the bone infarct was characterize by irregular sclerosis and tortuous calcification on X-ray and CT,and by low-signal on both T_1WI and T_2WI . Conclusion MRI is the most effective way to find the bone infarct in the early stages , X-ray is helpful in diagnosing the bone infarct in the middle and later stages , CT is more sensitive than X-ray . X-ray ,CT and MRI should be combined in diagnosing the bone infarct .

Objective To evaluate which b value is the best to distinguish the glioma recurrence and radiation-induced brain injury using DWI when b value were at 1 000 s/mm2、3 000 s/mm2 and 5 000 s/mm2 respectively.Methods Retrospective analysis the DWI of 21 patients who suffered from glioma recurrence and radiation-induced brain injury obtained on a 3T MRI scanner.Results (1)All recurrent glioma (100%)showed hyper-intense signal,while most radiation-induced brain injury patients (80%)showed hypo-in-tense signal when b=5 000 s/mm2 .The sensitivity and specificity were high (100% and 80% respectively)when hyper-intense sig-nal was taken as a diagnostic point of glioma recurrence and radiation-induced brain injury.(2)The receiver operating characteristic (ROC)curve analysis suggested that the minimum ADC resulted in a highest sensitivity to differentiate glioma recurrence from radi-ation-induced brain injury when b=5 000 s/mm.Conclusion High b-value is more accurate to reflect cell density,and the minimum ADC is better to differentiate the glioma recurrence and radiation-induced brain injury when b=5 000 s/mm2 on DWI.

Objective To study the imaging characteristics of localized myositis ossificans for improving its diagnosis and differen-tial diagnosis ability.Methods The Clinical and radiographic data of 45 cases with localized myositis ossificans proved by pathology or clinical follow up were analyzed retrospectively,summarize its imaging features.Results Of the 45 cases,1 7 cases occurred in the elbow joint,1 5 in the hip joint,13 in the other parts of the body.X-ray showed lining or lamellar high-density ossification in soft tis-sues in 34 cases,of those 12 cases with “shell”ossification.Compared with the X-ray,CT showed more clear ossification.MRI showed the soft tissue mass with peripheral edema in 18 cases;3 cases obvious ossification,no edema around.SPECT/CT showed abnormal imaging agent concentration in soft tissue within 12 cases,of those 5 cases concentration range greater than the range of ossification,4 cases concentration range less than the range of ossification.Conclusion Localized myositis ossificans have certain im-aging characteristics.Integrated application of a variety of imaging combined with the clinical can fully display the evolution of the disease,and improve its diagnosis rate.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of SPECT/CT on fracture healing.Methods A total of 28 patients (13 males,15 females; average age 45.3 years) with fracture were enrolled.All underwent metal fixation.SPECT/CT scans were performed at least 6 months after the metal fixation.X-ray examination before SPECT/CT showed equivocal fracture healing.The fracture delayed union or nonunion were judged by degree of uptake as well as uptake pattern around fracture site.Final diagnosis was confirmed by surgery or follow-up X-ray film.Results Among 28 patients,15 showed delayed union (confirmed by follow-up),and 13 showed nonunion (confirmed by surgery).There were 13 screws in 6 patients showed abnormal uptake,suggesting screw loose (confirmed by surgery).Conclusions SPECT/CT imaging could be of clinical significance in assessing fracture healing.

Objective To study the imaging characteristics of osteosarcoma.Methods 35 patients with osteosarcoma proved pathologically were examined by radiography,of them 25 cases were examined with CT scan or MRI,and 8 cases undergone contrast-enhanced MRI.The imaging features of osteosarcoma were analysed comparatively with that of pathology.Results The lesions localized at distal part of femur in 17 cases and proximal part of tibia in 8 cases,that were most location of this tumor.The imaging characteristics of osteosarcoma included bone destruction,neoplastic bone,periosteal reaction and soft-tissue mass,in some cases,epiphyseal plate and epiphysis were involved,even the joint face and the opposite osseous of joint(skip lesions).On enhanced MR scanning,the margin of tumor was enhanced in early and the center of tumor was delayed enhancement.CT could showed "sieve sign"and small neoplastic bone.Conclusion Osteosarcoma has certain imaging characteristics;X-ray examination is the first choice in diagnosing osteosarcoma,CT and MR could provide much more comprehensive imaging information for clinic.

BACKGROUND: Antigene RNAs (agRNAs) could be a useful tool to downregulate beta arrestin 2 (Arrb2) gene expressions, and realize gene knock-out effect in cell levels. OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of agRNAs on DAMGO-induced mu-opioid receptor (MOR) desensitization in C17.2 cells by using agRNAs complementary to transcription start sites of beta arrestin 2 (Arrb2) to downregulate the gene expression in mouse C17.2 cells. METHODS: Mouse neural stem cells C17.2 was cultured in Dulbecco's minimal essential medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, 10 mg/L penicillin and 10 mg/L ampicillin with 5% CO_2 at 37 ℃. The cells were passaged every 5 to 6 days after digestion with 0.25% trypsin when cells were 80% confluent. The expression of MOR on mouse C17.2 cells was detected by RT-PCR and immunocytochemical method. AgRNAs which could silence the expression of Arrb2 was transfected into C17.2 cells with Lipofectamine. The expression of green fluorescent protein gene was observed by fluorescence microscopy 24 hours after transfection. [~(35)S]GTPγS binding was assessed by autoradiography to examine the ability of the MOR to couple to G proteins on stimulation with selective agonist DAMGO.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The expression of MOR on C17.2 cells was confirmed by RT-PCR. The receptors were expressed on cell membrane and in plasma determined by immnocytochemistry. The expression of green fluorescent protein gene could be observed in C17.2 cells transfected with plasmid pGPU6/GFP/Arrb9 using fluorescent microsocpe. The results of [~(35)S]GTPγS binding showed that the stimulation ratio in cells with and without DAMGO stimulation or transfected with agRNAs were (113±14)%, (253±17)% and (239±15)% respectively. This indicated that agRNAs could downregulate the expression of beta-arrestin 2 and inhibit the desensitization of MOR.
