Objective To investigate the effects of siRNA silencing enhancer of zeste homolo 2 (EZH2) on invasion and migration of cervical cancer cells and the molecular mechanisms.Methods The small interfering RNAs (siRNA) targeting EZH2 were transiently transfected into C33A cell line by lipofectamin2000.The effects of EZH2 on cell invasion and migration were detected by wound-healing assay, Transwell assay and soft agar colony assay.The expression of MMP2 was detected by Western blot.Results Downregulation of EZH2 expression by siRNA in C33A cell line significantly inhibited cell invasion and migration in vitro.Meanwhile, siRNA-mediated depletion of EZH2 reduced the expression of MMP2.Conclusion Knocking down EZH2 expression by siRNA could surpress invasion and migration of human cervical cancer cells, which might be related to downregulating MMP2 expression.

Objective To explore and evaluate MRI in diagnosing primary muscle non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Methods Six surgically confirmed primary muscle non-Hod#in lymphoma underwent MR examination including T_1WI, T_2WI and T_1 WI enhanced studies. The acquired images date was reviewed and analysed retrospectively in comparison with surgical and pathological results. Results The locations of 6 cases were cervical part (2), upper extremity (1), lower extremity (3), respectively. All cases involved of more than one anatomical compartment with poorly defined solid masses in 5 cases and well defined in 1 cases, 5 extended to subcutaneous fat and 3 extended along the neurovascular bundle. The mean tumor diameter was 13.9 cm, ranging from 7.3 to 22.5 cm. One was well demarcated and 5 were ill-defined. On T_1 WI, 2 were slighdy high signal intensity and 4 were slighdy low signal intensity. On T_2 WI, 2 were slightly high signal intensity, 3 were intermediate signal intensity and 1 was high signal intensity. Five were inhomogeneous and 1 was homogeneous. The intrinsic structure such as muscle fiber, tendo, spatium intermusculare were detected on 5 cases. Of the 5 dynamic contrast-enhanced cases, it showed moderate enhamcement during arterial phase, 2 were homogeneous and 3 were inhomogeneous. And it showed progressive enhancement during interstitial phase, 3 were homogeneous and 2 were inhomogeneous. Conclusions Primary muscle lymphoma always originated deep to the fascia showing subcutaneous extension and multiple compartment invasion. Typically form poorly defined solid masses with slightly high in signal intensity on MR T_2WI and middle degree dynamic delayed contrasted-enhanced in which intrinsic anatomic structure such as muscle fiber, tendo, spatium intermusculare and so on can be discerned, almost all cases involve more than one muscle compartment and some of tumor extend along the neurovascular bundle.

Objective To correlate CT findings of secondary hepatic lymphoma with pathology and to evaluate it's clinical value.Methods Nine patients with secondary hepatic lymphoma confirmed by pathology underwent spiral CT scanning and dual-phase dynamic contrast-enhancement scanning before operation, the CT data were reviewed and analysed retrospectively in comparison with surgical and pathological results.Results Twenty-three lesions of secondary hepatic lymphoma in 9 patients were located in the left lobe (9 lesions), the fight lobe (6 lesions),the porta of the liver (5 lesions) and the caudate lobe (3 lesions), respectively.Sixteen of these 23 lesions were distributed over an area near the portal vein, 7 were seattered in the exterior of liver.17 lesions had an ellipsoid contour and 6 showed irregular contour.The diameter of the lesions ranged from 2.7 to 16.5 cm, with a mean diameter of 5.9cm.The tumor demonstrated mild homogeneous dynamic delayed contrasted-enhancement and the CT value of the non-contrast scans, AP phases and PVP phases were 20.7 to 31.5 HU(with a mean value of 25.3 HU), 23.8 to 48.5 HU(with a mean value of 31.9 HU) and 35.3 to 60.2 HU(with a mean value of 47.8 HU) respectively.Intrinsic hepatic vessels could be discerned in 6 lesions.The lesions situated in the perta of the liver encased the portal vessels, but there was no vessel compression or occlusion.Conclusion Recognition of the dynamic CT features of hepatic lymphoma could enhance its diagnostic accuracy.

Objective To Explore the imaging features relative to pathology of pelvic chondrosarcoma and to evaluate the clinical value.Methods All 12 cases patients with primary pelvic chondrosarcoma confirmed by pathological examination underwent radiography,spiral CT plain scanning,MR SE-T1WI,FSE-T2WI and SE-Tl WI enhancement scanning before operation.The imaging data was reviewed and analyzed retrospectively to compare with surgical and pathological results.Results Eleven conventional chondrosarcoma and one dedifierentiated chondrosarcoma were located in different parts of pelvis.The diameters of the tumors ranged from 4.7 to 17.0 cm with one case less than 5.0 cm,6 cases being 5.O-10.0 am and 5 cases more than 10.0 Cln.The CT valHe of 5 cases was identical or inferior to muscle with mild to moderate"ring-and-arc"mineralization and soft mass.MR imaging depict the high water content of these lesions as very high signal intensity was detected on T2 WI.Six cases showed typical"ring-and-arc"fibrous tissue which enhanced persistently.Aggressive features of deep endosteal scalloping and soft-tissue extension was also found in these cases.Conclusions Radiographic findings Can suggest the diagnosis of pelvic chondrosarcoma when there is typical"ring-and.arc"fibrous tissue,mineralization,aggressive features of deep endosteal scalloping and large soft-tissue extension.MR imaging reflect directly this pathologic structure,superior to that of CT and radiography.CT is optimal to detect the matrix mineralization,particularly when it is subtle or when the lesion is located in anatomically complex pelvic areas.

Objective To explore the imaging features of primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma(MFH)of bone and correlate them with pathological findings.Methods Thirteen cases patients with primary MFH of bone confirmed by surgical pathology underwent radiography,spiral CT plain scanning and MR SE-T1 WI,T2 WI and SE-T1 WI enhancement scanning before operation.The imaging date was reviewed and analysed retrospectively in comparison with surgical and pathological results.Results Of 13 MFH,11 were located in the end of long bone,and 2 in the diaphysis.The distance between tumors in the end of long bone and adjacent joint surface was 1 to 5 cm.All lesions showed osteolytic destruction with the maximum diameter of the tumors from 5.3 to 12.7 cm.The tumors had eccentric aggressive osteolytic destruction in 10 lesions,internal crest within the lesions in 7,inconsecutive marginal osteosclerosis in 11,little periosteal reaction in 2 and small soft tissue masses in 9,respectively.The CT value of lesions was similar to muscle.MR imaging depicted low signal intensity with aggressive features on T1 WI,iso to slight high signal intensity on T2 WI,and middle or high degree contrast enhancement on enhanced T1 WI images.Macroscopically,MFH was usually located eccentrically within the bone and produced little or no osseous expansion.The soft tissue component appeared multi-nodules and pseudo-encapsulated.Histologically,they consisted of spindle-shaped fibroblasts,which radiated outward in a spiral array from a central focus and produced a nebula or storiform appearance,and cells,which were small and oval with little visible cytoplasm.Conclusions The imaging manifestations of MFH were specific to some extent.Combined utilization of plain X-ray,CT,and MRI is helpful for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of MFH.

Objective To explore the imaging features and dynamic CT findings of primary adrenocortical carcinoma and evaluating its clinical value.Methods All 11 cases patients with primary adrenocortical carcinoma confirmed by surgical pathology underwent spiral CT plain scanning and two phases dynamic enhancement scanning before operation.Contrast injection was done by using nonionic Omnipaque at a flow rate of 3 ml/s with a power injector.The CT images were reviewed and analysed retrospectively in comparison with surgical and pathological results.Results Five of 11 lesions were located in the right adrenal gland,6 in the left.The diameter of the tumors was 4.1—16.0cm with 2 cases10.0cm.The attenuation of the plain scans,two phases contrast scans was 21.9—46.7 HU(with a mean value of 35.3 HU),30.5—65.8 HU(mean value 47.1 HU),and 52.6— 97.0 HU(mean value 74.2 HU),respectively.Four were in the shape of capsule,6 reticular,1 slightly inhomogeneous masses.The irregular tumor vessels of 6 reticular masses were seen in the artery phase. Conclusion The dynamic CT features of primary adrenocortical carcinoma were obvious,dynamic SCT scans could suggest the diagnose.
