BACKGROUND: Ischiofemoral impingement (IFI) syndrome has attracted more and more attention, but there is little report on IFI because of its low incidence. Moreover, its imaging characters have not yet been fully understood.OBJECTIVE: To discuss the MRI diagnostic criteria for IFI, thus understanding the imaging characters of IFI revealed on MRI.METHODS: Sixteen cases (21 hips) of suspected IFI were selected as experimental group, and 25 healthy volunteers as control group. The bilateral ischiofemoral space (IFS, the shortest distance between the ischial tuberosity and lesser trochanter of femur) and quadratus femoris space (QFS, distance between the lesser trochanter of femur and hamstring tendon insertion) were measured on MRI axial image. The signal and morphology of the quadratus femoris were observed. The differences in QFS and IFS were compared between two groups.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Among 16 patients, there were 13 females, and 3 males, and 5 female cases of bilateral IFI. (2) In the experimental group, the IFS ((13.65±3.87) mm versus (22.17±5.75) mm) and QFS ((7.15±3.50) mm versus (12.89±3.13) mm) showed significant differences between affected and opposite sides (P < 0.01). (3) In the control group, the IFS ((23.59±6.14) mm versus (23.08±5.82) mm) and QFS ((12.41±3.75) mm versus (13.22±3.84) mm) did not differ significantly between left and right sides (P > 0.05). (4) Compared with the control group, there were significant differences in IFS and QFS of the affected side in the experimental group, and no significant differences in IFS and QFS of the opposite side. (5) In the experimental group, quadratus femoris appeared with deformation, edema and atrophy. (6) To conclude, the incidence of IFI in females is significantly higher than that in males, and bilateral hips are usually affected. MRI diagnostic criteria for IFI are IFS ≤ 11.46 mm, QFS ≤ 5.53 mm of the affected side, and quadratus femoris present edema and deformation, which are more sensitive on axial fat-suppressed MRI imaging.

Objective To investigate the levels of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1)in the bladder tissue and urine of female interstitial cystitis(IC)patients. Methods Thirty-five IC patients according tO the NIDDK IC diagnosis standard,20 urinary infection (UI) patients and 25 asymptomatic controls were collected.All IC patients were accepted 24 hour voiding diaries,O'LearySant IC Questionnaires,potassium sensitivity test (PST) and cystoscopy under anesthetic.RT-PCR and ELISA analyses were used to determine the levels of MCP-1 in the bladder tissue and urine specimens from women with IC、UI and controls.Immunohistochemistry staining was used to observe the distribution of MCP-1 in bladder tissue of IC. Results Urine MCP-1 was (74.1±36.9)pg/ml in IC patients,(280.65±68.9)pg/ml in UI patients and(10.8±6.9)pg/ml in asymptomatic controls(P＜0.01).Tissue MCP-1 was 76.2±24.0 in IC patients,99.5±30.1 in UI patients and 36.1±14.1 in asymptomatic controls(P＜0.01)by RT-PCR analyses.The MCP-1 degree increased in IC patients was between UI patients and asyrnptomatie controls.The severity of IC clinical symptom Was correlated with MCP1 levels. Conclusions The changes in the levels of MCP-1 are associated with IC.After excluding urinary infection,it would be useful for early diagnosis of IC by increased level of MCP-1.

Objective To study the proteomic profiling of lung and colon during lung injury induced by lipopolysaccharide(LPS).Methods Mice were divided into four groups:the control,LPS,LPS+ Platycodonis Radix(PR)and LPS+ Rhei Radix et Rhizoma(RRR).LPS was injected into the lungs through trachea,and the drugs were given by intragastric injection.The mice were weighed,the faeces of each mouse were determined,and the lungs and colon were isolated for analysis of pathophysiological changes and proteomics.Results ①After 7 days of LPS,the weight of mice decreased,the lung showed inflammatory changes,and the faeces increased.Both PR and RRR can improve the inflammation.②There are lot of proteins was increased in lung mainly involved in gene transcription and in colon mainly involved in mitochondrial,endoplasmic reticulum and metabolism,etc.The up-regulated proteins shared by both lung and colon were involved in myoprotein contraction.PR can inhibit the up-regulated protein more than RRR in lung.③There are large number of proteins were down-regulated in lung involved in cell membrane and in colon involved in nucleic acid binding and ATP binding.The down-regulated proteins shared by both lung and colon were involved in endoplasmic reticulum,nucleic acid binding and cell membrane,etc.The down-regulated proteins in lung by PR are more than those by RRR,which is involved in endoplasmic reticulum,cell membrane,etc.Conclusion LPS-induced lung injury can cause changes in the expression of protein in lung and colon proteins,and the increase in the expression of myoprotein contraction genes may be one of the molecular mechanisms related to lung and colon.

Objective:To investigate the effect of long non-coding (lnc) RNA HCP5 on the radiation sensitivity of glioma cells and underlying mechanism.Methods:The glioma cells U251 and U87 were irradiated with 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 Gy rays as different doses.si-Con, si-HCP5, pcDNA, and pcDNA-HCP5 were transfected into cells U251 and U87, recorded as si-con group, si-HCP5 group, pcDNA group, and pcDNA-HCP5 group.si-Con and si-HCP5 were transfected into cells U251 and U87, and then irradiated with 4 Gy rays, respectively, recorded as IR+ si-con group and IR+ si-HCP5 group, the cells only irradiated with 4 Gy rays were recorded as IR group.After si-HCP5 with anti-miR-con and anti-miR-508-3p was co-transfected into cell U251 and U87, respectively, irradiated with 4 Gy rays, recorded as IR+ si-HCP5+ anti-miR-con group and IR+ si-HCP5+ anti-miR-508-3p group, respectively, the transfection was performed by liposome method.RT-qPCR was used to detect the expression of miR-508-3p and HCP5.Cell clone formation assay was used to detect the radiosensitivity of glioma cells.Flow cytometry was used to detect apoptosis, dual luciferase Reporter gene detection experiments detects fluorescence activity.Results:HCP5 was highly expressed in radiation-treated glioma cells, and miR-508-3p was lowly expressed.After silenced HCP5, U251 and U87 cells had enhanced radiosensitivity and apoptotic rate((16.67±1.68) vs (3.58±0.62), t=21.929, P<0.05; (12.32±1.08) vs (4.48±0.71), t=18.198, P<0.05) was increased, and γ-H2AX( (0.45±0.04) vs (0.23±0.05), t=10.307, P<0.05; (0.38±0.04) vs (0.24±0.03), t=8.400, P<0.05), Cleaved caspase-3((0.37±0.04) vs (0.16±0.03), t=12.600, P<0.05; (0.38±0.04) vs (0.22±0.03), t=9.600, P<0.05) expressions were increased.Compared with silencing HCP5 or radiation treatment alone, silencing HCP5 and radiation treatment of U251 cells simultaneously, the apoptosis rate ((25.34±1.54) vs (16.67±1.68), t=11.413, P<0.05; (25.34±1.54) vs (11.13±1.06), t=22.802, P<0.05) was significantly increased, and γ-H2AX((0.69±0.05) vs (0.45±0.04), t=11.245, P<0.05; (0.69±0.05) vs (0.31±0.04), t=17.804, P<0.05), Cleaved caspase-3 ((0.52±0.06/0.37±0.04, t=6.240, P<0.05) (0.52±0.06/0.34±0.04, t=7.488, P<0.05) expressions were increased.The expressions of p-PI3K ((0.21±0.02) vs (0.52±0.04), t=20.795, P<0.05; (0.26±0.23 ), ( 0.67±0.07), t=5.116, P<0.05), p- AKT ((0.22±0.03) vs (0.66±0.07), t=17.332, P<0.05; (0.23±0.04) vs (0.71±0.03), t=28.800, P<0.05) in U251 and U87 cells were decreased.HCP5 can target the regulation of miR-508-3p expression; interfering with miR-508-3p reversed the effects of silent HCP5 and radiation on the radiation sensitization and apoptosis of U251 and U87 cells.It reduced the expression levels of reducing γ-H2AX and Cleaved caspase-3, while increased the expression levels of p-PI3K and p-AKT. Conclusion:Silencing lncRNA HCP5 can enhance the radiation sensitivity of glioma cells and promote apoptosis.The mechanism may be related with the miR-508-3p and PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, which will provide new targets and new ideas for glioma treatment.
