Objective To synthesize novel gold nanoparticles of GAL-PEG-GNPs,study its radiation effect on hepatocellular carcinoma cells HepG2 cells in vitro,and investigate the underlying mechanisms.Methods GAL-PEG-GNPs were synthesized and characterized successfully.HepG2 cells were divided into three groups of control,GNPs and GAL-PEG-GNPs.The cytotoxicities of these compounds were tested by the CCK-8 assay and their IC50 values of HepG2 cells were calculated.Cell uptake of nanoparticles was detected by TEM and ICP-MS.The radiosensitization effect of nanoparticles was tested by the colony formation assay.Cell cycle distribution was detected by FCM.The expressions of CAT,SOD,and total GSH were detected with a microplate reader,and the expressions of apoptosis-related proteins were tested by Western blot.Results The GNPs and GAL-PEG-GNPs had absorption peaks at 520 and 530 nm,respectively,and their diameters were (22.6-±2.12) and (32.0 ± 1.41) nm detected by ICP-MS.The GAL-PEG-GNPs and GNPs had similar cytotoxicity profiles (P > 0.05),while GAL-PEG-GNPs could be more effectively uptaken by HepG2 cells than GNPs.The sensitive enhancement ratio (SER) of GNPs and GAL-PEG-GNPs to HepG2 cells were 1.46 和 1.95,respectively.The percentage of cells at phase of G2/M in HepG2 population treated with GNP was higher than that of untreated cells (t =14.20,P <0.05).The protein expressions of Cytochrome C,Bax,Caspase-3,and Caspase-9 were upregulated while Bcl-2 expression was down-regulated in the cells treated with GNPs/radiation or GAL-PEGGNPs/radiation.The expressions of CAT,SOD and total GSH in the GNP treated groups were significantly decreased compared with the control group(t =12.34,29.39,12.85,P < 0.05).Conclusions GALPEG-GNPs has obvious radiosensitization effect on HepG2 cells,which is related to the induction of cell apoptosis and the generation of free radicals.
7. Reversible change of early venous filling after emergency endovascular therapy: a case report
Chinese Journal of Neurology 2020;53(2):115-118
Early venous filling is a special imaging manifestation of cerebral angiography in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Endovascular therapy for acute ischemic stroke has been carried outwidely. However, reports involving disappearance of early venous filling and then confirming its reversibility during follow-up angiographic review are somewhat scarce. Here a case in which the early venous filling after emergency thrombectomy disappeared during follow-up examination is reported. A 71-year-old male was admitted with sudden onset of left-sided weakness for 42 minutes. Intravenous thrombolysis and bridging middle cerebral artery mechanical thrombectomy were performed. Early filling of the thalamostriate vein was visible in the digital subtraction angiography series immediately after recanalization and follow-up imaging revealed infarction of the basal ganglia. Follow up angiography showed that the phenomenon of early venous filling disappeared two weeks later.
