Objective]To explore the aberrant expression of SOD1 gene in nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues and adjacent tissues,as well as in NPC cell lines,then to observe the effect of SOD1 on NPC cells metastatic ability and investigate the intrinsic?mechanism.[Methods]Immunohistochemical technique was used to examine SOD1 expression in carcinoma tissues and adjacent tissues(n=10). Small interfering RNAs and inhibitor LCS-1 were used to knockdown of SOD1 expression and inhibit SOD1 activity, respectively. Then,wound healing test and migration assay were applied to detect cell metastatic ability in vitro. Real-time PCR and Western Blot were used to analyze the expression of EMT-related genes(E-cadherin,Vimentin,Twist).[Results]SOD1 was found to be significantly up-regulated in nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues(n = 7 ,70%),compared to control. SOD1 was also highly expressed in highly metastatic potential NPC cell lines(CNE2,5-8F,S18)compared with low metastatic ability cell lines(6-10B). Knockdown SOD1 expression or inhibit SOD1 activity suppress cell motility in CNE2 and 5-8F cells. Finally,we demonstrate that SOD1 inhibition plays a role in induction of epithelial marker E-cadherin and has an opposite effect on mesenchymal marker vimen tin and transcriptional factor twist.[Conclusion]These results suggest that SOD1 contributes to EMT and might be important for tumor metastasis in NPC.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of CT perfusion (CTP) imaging for providing quantitative information about angiogenesis in patients with lung carcinoma and investigate the correlation of CTP enhancement parameters and histological microvessel density (MVD) with lymphatic involvement in peripheral lung carcinoma. MethodsFifty-three patients with pathology-proved peripheral lung carcinoma underwent CT perfusion scan before operation. The enhancement parameters of CTP were calculated based on the time-density curves (TDC) of fist pass phase. All cases were classified into two groups according to pathologic results: tumor with and without lymph node involvement. Two-sample t test was used for the statistics. The ROC curve was used to assess the efficiency of the enhancement parameters of CT perfusion and MVD for predicting lymphatic involvement.Results Tumors with lymph node involvement had significantly higher value of MVD than those without lymph node involvement (64.69±16.34 and 42.67± 16.78, respectively,t=4.84,P<0.01). Tumors with lymph node involvement had significantly higher value of CTP enhancement parameters (PH, M/A, PV) than those without lymph node involvement [PH= (41.79±15.50) and (29.99±10.91) HU,M/A =0.24±0.09 and 0.15±0.06, PV=(2.14±1.09) and (1.27±0.53) ml·min~(-1)·ml~(-1), t=3.21,3.95, 3.66, P<0.01, respectively]. The CTP enhancement parameters (PH, M/A, PV) of lung cancer correlated positively with the MVD, the highest correlation coefficient was between the PV and MVD (r=0.716, P<0.01). MVD and PV had higher values for predicting lymph node involvement in ROC curve analysis.The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy for predicting lymph node involvement were 80.8%, 81.5% and 81.1% or 84.6% ,85.2% and 84.9% respectively if MVD>52/0.74 mm~2 or PV>1.52 ml·min~(-1)·ml~(-1). ConclusionThe CT perfusion PV and histological MVD have good correlation with lymph node involvement in peripheral lung carcinoma and are important predicting parameters before operation.

Objective:To explore the application value of real-time vascular quantification stiffness (R-VQS) technique in evaluating carotid artery elasticity and hemodynamic status in type 2 diabetic nephropathy (T2DN).Methods:The clinical data of 86 patients with T2DN treatment in the Fifth People′s Hospital of Zhuhai from March 2020 to March 2022 were collected retrospectively, according to the clinical stage, 44 patients were in the early stage group and 42 patients were in the clinical stage group. All of them underwent R-VQS technique to obtain carotid artery elasticity parameters stiffness index (HC), systolic diameter (Diam), diameter change value (Dist) and hemodynamic indexes pulse conduction velocity (PWV). Among the 86 patients, 21 had atherosclerosis (AS) and 65 did not. The differences of HC, Diam, Dist and PWV between the patients with and without AS were compared, and the value of HC, Diam, Dist and PWV in diagnosing T2DN complicated with AS was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:The HC, Diam and PWV in the clinical phase group were higher than those in the early phase group, and Dist was lower than that in the early phase group: 4.76 ± 0.60 vs. 4.15 ± 0.52, (8.69 ± 1.13) mm vs. (7.21 ± 0.84) mm, (7.42 ± 0.63) m/s vs. (6.84 ± 0.57) m/s, (0.27 ± 0.07) mm vs. (0.35 ± 0.09) mm, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). The HC, Diam and PWV in the patients with AS were higher than those in the patients without AS, and Dist was lower than that in the patients without AS: 4.82 ± 0.63 vs. 4.33 ± 0.51, (8.85 ± 1.18) mm vs. (7.63 ± 1.06) mm, (7.68 ± 0.75) m/s vs. (6.94 ± 0.59) m/s, (0.24 ± 0.05) mm vs. (0.33 ± 0.10) mm, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). ROC curve analysis results showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of the combined diagnosis of T2DN complicated with AS by HC, Diam, Dist and PWV was 0.921, and the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were 90.48% and 84.62%, respectively. Conclusions:R-VQS technology can detect abnormal changes in carotid elasticity and hemodynamics in patients with T2DN, and can diagnose T2DN complicated with AS. It can provide a reference basis for clinical prevention and treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular complications in T2DN patients.
