Objective To explore CT features of ectopic pancreas in the gastrointestinal tract,and to compare and analyze with the pathological findings.Methods The clinical data of 20 cases with ectopic pancreas in gastrointestinal tract proved by surgery pathology or endoscopic biopsy were analyzed retrospectively,and the characteristics were summarized.Results Ectopic pancreas in gastrointestinal tract-20 single lesions,4 cases at lesser curvature of gastric body,7 cases at greater curvature of gastric antrum,6 cases at lesser curvature of gastric antrum,1 case at gastric angle and 2 cases at duodenum.The longest diameter of ectopic pancreas was from 0.8 to 3.5 cm,while the shortest one was from 0.6 to 2.5 cm.The axis of the lesions was parallel to the wall of the gastrointestinal tract. For 1 8 ectopic pancreas in gastrointestinal tract,1 6 were ovoid or round in shape,and the other 2 were slight lobulated.2 lesions in duodenum were ovoid in shape.1 2 lesions'margins were well-defined and ill-defined in other 8.Plain CT showed the ectopic pancreas with homogeneous density,1 8 lesions with endoluminal growth and exophytic growth of other 2 cases.The cystic change was also found in 2 cases.Enhanced CT showed 2 lesions with significant homogeneous enhancement,mainly composed of pancreatic acini in pathology;14 with medium enhancement close to the normal pancreas,composed by pancreatic acini,islet and ducts,and 2 with slight enhancement,composed with mature differentiated mucous glands with ducts.Two lesions'center cystic change areas show no enhancement result.Conclusion The CT features,such as direction of its organic axis,endoluminal growth and enhancement patterns have its useful characteristics.Different enhanced patterns of ectopic pancreas in gastrointestinal tract are related with the pathologic change.

OBJECTIVE To study the role of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase （PI3K） on sunitinib-induced myocardial systolic dysfunction. METHODS Using human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes （hiPSC-CMS） as objects， the contractile force of cardiomyocytes was measured by CardioExcyte 96 system， and IC50 of sunitinib was calculated after hiPSC- CMS were treated with sunitinib at different concentrations [0 （control）， 0.5， 1， 3， 5， 10 μmol/L] for 24 hours. The effects of sunitinib （3.14 μmol/L） on the contractile frequency of cardiomyocytes， calcium transient amplitude and calcium transient recovery time course， mRNA expression of myocardial injury markers atrial natriuretic peptide （ANP）， brain natriuretic peptide （BNP） and β-myosin heavy chain （β-MHC） were detected. PI3K activator 3，4，5-triphosphate phos-phatidylinositol （PIP3， 1 μmol/L） and sunitinib were used to intervene in hiPSC-CMs jointly， so as to investigate the role of PI3K in the myocardial systolic dysfunction induced by sunitinib. RESULTS Sunitinib inhibited the contractile force of hiPSC-CMs in a concentration-dependent manner. IC50 of sunitinib was 3.14 μmol/L. After intervention with 3.14 μmol/L sunitinib， the contractile frequency of hiPSC-CMs and calcium transient amplitude were decreased significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）； the duration of calcium transient recovery was prolonged significantly （P＜0.05）， and mRNA expressions of ANP， BNP and β-MHC were significantly increased （P＜0.01）. After PI3K was activated with PIP3， the contractile force of hiPSC-CMs was increased significantly （P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS Activating PI3K activity is a potential molecular mechanism to improve myocardial toxicity induced by sunitinib.

Immunoglobulin G4-related sialadenitis (IgG4-RS) is an immune-mediated fibro-inflammatory disease and the pathogenesis is still not fully understood. The aim of this study was to explore the role and mechanism of interleukin-13 (IL-13) in the cellular senescence during the progress of IgG4-RS. We found that the expression of IL-13 and IL-13 receptor α1 (IL-13Rα1) as well as the number of senescent cells were significantly higher in the submandibular glands (SMGs) of IgG4-RS patients. IL-13 directly induced senescence as shown by the elevated activity of senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal), the decreased cell proliferation, and the upregulation of senescence markers (p53 and p16) and senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) factors (IL-1β and IL-6) in SMG-C6 cells. Mechanistically, IL-13 increased the level of phosphorylated signal transducer and activator of transcription 6 (p-STAT6) and mitochondrial-reactive oxygen species (mtROS), while decreased the mitochondrial membrane potential, ATP level, and the expression and activity of superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2). Notably, the IL-13-induced cellular senescence and mitochondrial dysfunction could be inhibited by pretreatment with either STAT6 inhibitor AS1517499 or mitochondria-targeted ROS scavenger MitoTEMPO. Moreover, IL-13 increased the interaction between p-STAT6 and cAMP-response element binding protein (CREB)-binding protein (CBP) and decreased the transcriptional activity of CREB on SOD2. Taken together, our findings revealed a critical role of IL-13 in the induction of salivary gland epithelial cell senescence through the elevated mitochondrial oxidative stress in a STAT6-CREB-SOD2-dependent pathway in IgG4-RS.
