Objective To explore the effects of different doses of contrast agent (CA) on types of time-signal intensity curves (TICs) and semi-quantitative parameters after dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) on Walker 256 murine breast tumor model.Methods A total of 12 rats burdened Walker256 breast cancer models were established and divided into 3 groups randomly, 4 in each group.Routine MR and DCE-MRI scans of the rats using Bruker Pharmascan 7T MR scanner were performed.Doses for the 3 groups were 0.2, 0.3, and 0.5 mmol/kg, respectively.MR data, TICs types and semi-quantitative parameters from each different dose group were statistically studied and compared to observe the differences.Results Tumors were enhanced significantly after injection.The types of TICs in all tumors were the Ⅲ pattern which was not influenced by CA doses.Semi-quantitative parameters of first enhancement (Efirst), maximal enhancement (Emax), washout enhancement (Ewash), and signal enhancement ratio (SER) showed statistical differences among the three dose groups (P＜0.05).Semi-quantitative parameters of time to peak (Tpeak) and washout velocity (Vwash) showed no statistical differences among the three dose groups (P＞0.05).Mean signal intensity of each group was highly negatively linear correlated with scan times after the peak (r=-0.972, P=0.000;r=-0.971, P=0.000;r=-0.989, P=0.000).The washout slope (slopewash) showed no statistical differences among the three groups (P＞0.05).Conclusions Injection doses of CA didn't change the TIC type, Tpeak, Vwash, and Slopewash.These parameters are comparable among different medical centers and can be considered as prior parameters to monitor the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

ced glutathione in MHD patients appears to be associated with an improvement of oxidative stress.

Objective To elucidate whether down-regulation of homo sapiens eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 alpha 2 (EEF1A2) expression induces apoptosis in pancreatic cancer cells and its possible mechanisms. Methods Two siRNAs targeting human EEF1A2 were synthesized and the siRNA/liposome complexes were transfected into the pancreatic cancer cell line BxPC-3. RTPCR and Western blot were used to analyze the change of EEF1A2 expression and the apoptosis rate of BxPC-3 cells was studied using Annexin-V/PI assay. To identify the mechanisms involved, the apoptosis associated proteins such as caspase-3, caspase-8, caspase-9, PARP, cytochrome C and Bid were detected by Western blotting. Results Both EEF1A2-targeting siRNAs reduced the EEF1A2expression, and the No. 2 siRNA inhibited EEF1A2 expression to less than 25 % in mRNA and protein levels. Down-regulation of EEF1A2 expression in BxPC-3 cells enhanced cell apoptosis (15.28% ±3.65%) at a greater level than negative siRNA-expressing cells (10. 11% ± 3. 05%) or mock cells (9.41 % ±4.14 %). Furthermore, reduction of EEF1A2 activated the pro-caspase-8, pro-caspase-3,pro-caspase-9,PARP and Bid to their active forms, and increased the expression of cytochrome C.Conclusions These data suggest that EEF1A2 down-regulation could significantly induce apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cell line BxPC-3, which is likely mediated by the death receptor and mitochondrial apoptotic pathways.

Objective To investigate the effects of parathyroid hormone(PTH)on microinflammatory and nutritional status in maintenance hemodialysis(MHD)patients.Methods Ninety-eight MHD patients were selected,who hod undergone hemodialysis for at least three months before the study and were in a stable clinical status without signs of infection or disease activity.The serum level of intact PTH was measured by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay(ECLIA),while the serum levels of interleukin(IL)-1β,IL-6,IL-8 and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).The levels of C-reactive protein(CRP),albumin(Alb),pre-albumin(PA),hemoglobin(Hb)and lipids were measured.Body measurement and modified quantitative subjective global assessment(MQSGA)was done simultaneously.Correlation analysis between serum PTH level and the parameters for inflammation and nutrition Was performed.Results The serum levels of intact PTH in MHD patients[(353.46±102.41)ng/L]were significantly higher than those in the control people[(57.45±5.76)ng/L,P<0.01],and the serum levels of IL-1β,IL-6,IL-8,TNF-α and CRP were significantly higher in MHD patients than those in the control people(P<0.01 or <0.05).Relative body weight(RBW),triceps skin fold thickness(TSF),mid-arm circumference(MAC)and mid-arm muscle circumference(MAMC)in MHD patients decreased significantly(P<0.05 or <0.01),while the score of MQSGA increased markedly(P<0.01).The levels of intact PTH showed significantly positive correlations with the levels of CRP,IL-1β, IL-6,TNF-α, lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] , serum phosphorus and ages of MHD(P<0.05 or <0.01 ).The levels of intact PTH showed significantly negative correlations with RBW, MAC, MAMC, Alb, Hb and total cholesterol(TC) in MHD patients (P<0.01 or <0.05) . And there was also significantly positive correlation between PTH and MQSGA in MHD patients (P<0.05). Conclusion PTH is probably involved in the presence and the progression of malnutrition-inflammation-atherosclerosis syndrome in MHD patients.

Aim To develop a sensitive, specific and accurate method for the pharmacokinetic study of QO-58 ( a novel M channel opener ) in rats after intragas-tric ( ig) and intravenous ( iv) administration. Meth-ods QO-58 was administered at the doses of 25,50, 100 mg · kg-1 ( ig ) and at single dose of 100 mg · kg-1(iv), respectively. Blood samples were obtained at intervals after each administration. Plasma samples were deproteinized with acetonitrile after addition of in-ternal standard, and detected by RP-HPLC. The main parameters of pharmacokinetics were calculated by DAS2. 1. 1 software. Results The calibration curve in plasma was linear over the range of 0. 1 ~160 mg · L-1 in rat plasma, and the limit of detection ( LOD) was 0. 1 mg · L-1 . The intra-day and inter-day RSD was less than 20%. The recovery of QO-58 in rat plas-ma was 89. 56% ~101. 38%. The concentration-time curves of QO-58 in rat palsma were consistent with the two-compartment model after both oral and intravenous administration. The main pharmacokinetic parameters for QO-58 following oral administration with three doses (25, 50, 100 mg· kg-1 ) in rat were as follows:Cmax (mg·L-1):8.25,16.29,18.27;T12β(h): 8.24, 5. 01, 5. 92; AUC0-∞ ( g · min · L-1 ):261. 94, 189. 57,90. 65. Conclusion The developed method is simple and specific, and is suitable for preclinical pharmacokinetic studies of QO-58 .

OBJECTIVE:To explore the clinical efficacy and safety of nedaplatin combined with docetaxel in the treatment of advanced cervical cancer. METHODS:A total of 53 patients with advanced cervical cancer selected from our hospital during Apr. 2014-Apr. 2016 were divided into observation group(31 cases)and control group(22 cases)according to chemotherapy plan. Con-trol group was given Docetaxel injection 60 mg/m2,ivgtt,qw. Observation group was additionally given Nedaplatin for injection 35 mg/m2+0.9% Sodium chloride injection diluted into 500 mL,ivgtt (≥60 min),qw. A chemotherapy cycle lased for 21 d,and both groups received 2 cycles of chemotherapy. Clinical efficacies of 2 groups were evaluated 2 weeks after treatment,and the level of PCNA integal was detected before and 2 weeks after treatment. The occurrence of ADR was recorded. RESULTS:The total re-sponse rate of observation group (77.42%) was significantly higher than that of control group (63.64%),with statistical signifi-cance(P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in PCNA integval between 2 groups(P>0.05). After treat-ment,PCNA integval of 2 groups were decreased significantly,and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). ADR were concentrated in grade I,and there was no statistical significance in the in-cidence of ADR between 2 groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Docetaxel combined with nedaplatin can significantly improve the clinical efficacy of patients with advanced cervical cancer,and does not increase the adverse reactions compared to docetaxel alone.

A novel electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) sensor for the determination of metoclopramide was developed by employing ruthenium complex as an ECL signal producer and an ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC) material as modified material. The ECL sensor was fabricated by adsorption ruthenium complex into a mixture of OMC and Nafion, which showed good electrochemical and ECL behaviors. It was found that the ECL intensity of the sensor fabricated was greatly enhanced in the presence of metoclopramide. Based on this finding, a highly sensitive and reproducible ECL method was developed for the determination of metoclopramide. The result showed that the ECL intensity was linear with the concentration of metoclopramide in the range from 1.0×10-10 to 5.0×10-7M and the detection limit was 3×10-11M. The ECL sensor exhibited a long-term stability and a fine reproducibility with relative standard deviation of 1.0 % for 1.0×10-10M metoclopramide in 18 continuous determinations. The developed method has been applied to the determination of metoclopramide in tablet samples with satisfactory results.
