A series of quinoline-polyamine conjugates (8a-8n) were designed, synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of cholinesterases (ChEs). Some of these compounds had potent ChEs inhibitory activity with IC50 values at micromolar range. Compound 8n exhibited the strongest inhibition on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) with an IC50 value of 8.78 micromol x L(-1), and compound 8i showed the most potent inhibition on butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) with IC50 value of 1.60 micromol x L(-1) which was slightly better than rivastigmine. The structure-activity relationship revealed that the chain length of polyamine and linker played important roles for inhibitory activity. Molecular modeling studies showed that 8i targeted both the catalytic active site (CAS) and the peripheral anionic site (PAS) of cholinesterases.

Objective To evaluate the safety and diagnostic accuracy of preoperative endoscopic ultrasound-guid﹣ed fine-needle aspiration in patients with pancreatic cancer. Methods 256 patients with pancreatic cancer from Jan﹣uary 2010 to December 2014, 82 were considered resectable on the basis of cross-sectional imaging findings. Of these patients, 54 underwent EUS-FNA before surgery (FNA+group) and 28 underwent surgery without preoperative EUS-FNA (FNA- group), the diagnosis result of EUS-FNA and the survival time of the two groups were observed. Results All 54 lesions were visible on EUS, and all 54 attempts at FNA were technically successful. The diagnostic accuracy according to cytology and histology findings was 94.44 % (51/54) and 88.89% (48/54), respectively, and the total accuracy was 94.44 % (51/54). Two patients developed mild pancreatitis and two hemorrhage after EUS-FNA but were successfully treated by conservative therapy. No severe complications occurred after EUS-FNA. In the FNA+and FNA- groups, the median relapse-free survival (RFS) was 282 and 265 d, respectively (P>0.05), and the median overall survival (OS) was 568 and 557 d, respectively (P>0.05). RFS and OS were therefore not inferior in the FNA+group. These data indicate that the usage of EUS-FNA did not influence RFS or OS, nor did it increase the risk of other complications. Conclusions Preoperative EUS-FNA is a safe and accurate diagnostic method.

Objective To assess the value of arterial spin labeling(ASL) MRI in the staging of early renal allograft function. Methods Sixty two renal allograft recipients (2 to 4 weeks after kidney transplantation) and 20 age match volunteers were included in this study. All subjects underwent conventional MRI and ASL MRI which was performed in the oblique-sagittal plane. Recipients were divided into two groups according to the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), recipients with good allograft function (eGFR≥60 ml · min-1 · 1.73 m-2,n=37) and recipients with impaired allograft function (eGFR<60 ml · min - 1 · 1.73 m - 2,n=25). Renal blood flow (RBF) was measured and an intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) was calculated to confirm the reproducibility of the measured results from two doctors. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Bonferroni were used to compare the different cortical RBF among three groups. Correlation of RBF with eGFR was evaluated using Pearson correlation coefficients. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was performed to assess the diagnostic efficacy of using cortical RBF to discriminate allografts with impaired function from good function. Results RBF values showed good reproducibility between doctors with an ICC larger than 0.90 in different group. Mean cortical RBF were (390 ± 61),(290 ± 69),(201 ± 86) ml · 100 g-1 · min-1 for healthy controls, recipients with good and impaired allograft function, respectively(F=37.313,P<0.01). RBF exhibited a significant correlation with renal function as determined by eGFR for recipients (r=0.60,P<0.01). Mean cortical RBF showed a high area under the ROC curve (0.773) to discriminate renal allografts with different function, with a sensitivity of 56.0% (14/25) and a specificity of 89.2% (33/37). Conclusion ASL MRI can assess the early renal allografts perfusion, and provide valuable information in the staging of renal function. It could be a useful method for evaluating renal function noninvasively.

Objective To study the therapeutic effect of EUS-guided rendezvous (EUS-RV) when ERCP failed in patients with malignant obstructive jaundice. Methods 12 cases of malignant obstructive jaundice patients were underwent EUS-RV after unsuccessful ERCP. The operation success rate, liver function recovery 1 week and 1 month after operation, complication rates, hospital stay and patient survival were observed. Results All 12 patients were successfully operated and placed stents by endoscopic ultrasound puncture following by ERCP: 8 patients by the stomach, 4 patients by duodenum, the operation success rate was 100.00%; There were significant difference between the liver function recovery of preoperative and postoperative one week or postoperative one week and postoperative one month (P < 0.05). 1 bleeding occurred and were improved after conservative treatment, the complications rate was 8.33%; the hospital stay was (20.68 ± 5.76) d; the average survival time of patients was 224 d. Conclusion EUS-guided rendezvous may be the alternative treatment due to the diminutive trauma and good effect when ERCP failed in patients with malignant obstructive jaundice.
