Objective To detect apoptosis of transplanted lung adenocarcinoma cells in nude mice after 125I brachytherapy by 99Tcm-Annexin V combined with diffusion weighted MRI (MR-DWI).Methods Twenty-five BALB/c-nu nude mice models subcutaneously transplanted with A549 cells were divided into experimental group (EG,n=13) and control group (CG,n=12) by random number table method.One 125I seed with apparent activity of (24.8±6.3) MBq was implanted into each mouse in EG,while CG underwent cold seed implantation.Both of 99Tcm-Annexin V imaging and MR-DWI were performed within 7-10 d after brachytherapy,then all mice were sacrificed and tumor cell apoptosis was detected by terminal oxynucleotidyl transferase mediated dUTP biotin nick end labeling (TUNEL) immunofluorescence,Survivin expression was assayed by SP.Two-sample t test,x2 test and Pearson correlation analysis were used for data analysis.Results Positive rate of cell apoptosis by 99Tcm-Annexin V imaging was 69.2％(9/13) and 8.3％(1/12) respectively in EG and CG (x2 =12.73,P＜0.01).The uptake ratio of 99Tcm-Annexin V,apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC) value and apoptosis index(M) of the tumor in EG were 2.91±0.85,(2.03±0.44)×10-3 mm2/s and (49± 18) ％,respectively,which were significantly higher than those of CG (1.26 ± 0.37,(1.29 ± 0.21) ×10-3 mm2/s and (11±4)％ respectively,t=5.930,5.452,7.606,all P＜0.05).Survivin expression in EG and CG was (46± 13) ％ and (15±7) ％ respectively (t =5.158,P＜0.05).The value of ADC was correlated with AI and uptake ratio(r=0.756,0.788,both P＜0.05).Uptake ratio was correlated with AI (r=0.754,P＜0.05),while Survivin expression was negatively correlated with AI (r =-0.772,P＜0.05).Conclusions Down-regulation of Survivin expression may play an important role in apoptosis induced by 125I brachytherapy.99Tcm-Annexin V combined with MR-DWI could effectively evaluate apoptosis of lung adenocarcinoma cells in a non-invasive way,thus it might be helpful in evaluation of early efficacy of 125I brachytherapy.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this investigation was to observe the effects of the Acetaminophen on auditory in mice. METHOD: Regardless of male and female mice, healthy seven-year-old C57 mice were randomly divided into Acetaminophen low-dose group (150 mg/kg), Acetaminophen medium-dose group (300 mg/kg), Acetaminophen high-dose group(600 mg/kg) and control group. Then mice were tested for ABR to observe the changes of ABR's threshold in the zero, second, fourth and ninth day separately. The change of cochlea hair cells morphology was studied by immunofluorescent labeling. And HPLC detects the concentration of Acetaminophen in endolymph of mice cochlea. RESULT: After 30 minutes following administration, the Acetaminophen in endolymph of mice cochlear can be assayed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Acetaminophen increased the hearing thresholds compared to the control group. Hearing thresholds increased significantly in the Acetaminophen at 9 d,compared to the control group (P < 0.05). After administered medium-dose and high-dose of Acetaminophen, on the 9th day with the time of giving medicine to all the groups strengthens, the ABR thresholds heightens. And the average threshold is (44.75 +/- 16.00) dB, (50.00 +/- 11.00) dB respectively. Hair cells damages could be observed in experimental group after operations. CONCLUSION Acetaminophen can pass through blood-labyrinth barrier to the inner ear. These data demonstrate that taking certain acetaminophen can induce hearing impairment in mice.

Background and purpose:Colorectal cancer is a kind of common digestive malignancies, which seriously threaten the human health. Although modern diagnostic and treatment technology has developed rapidly, the incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer continue to show an increasing tendency in recent years, and early diagnosis and prevention of colorectal cancer liver metastases are important to increase the survival rate of patients and to improve the prognosis. P-selectin and L-selectin is attracting much attention in cancer research ifeld recently, and the change of their expression and mediated adhesion play an important role in tumor cell metastasis, but their relationship between the occurrence and clinical stage of colorectal cancer rarely reported. This study aimed to explore whether the serum P-selectin and L-selectin levels of colorectal cancer patients were correlated with clinical and pathological features and the situation before and after surgery.Methods:A total number of 132 cases of colorectal cancer patients and 100 healthy subjects with gender and age-matched were enrolled. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect serum P-selectin and L-selectin concentrations in 132 cases before and after surgery, 100 healthy subjects were enrolled as the control group, the P-selectin and L-selectin levels were analyzed combined with theclinical and pathological features.Results:Serum P-selectin and L-selectin levels in patients with colorectal cancer before surgery were signiifcantly higher than those in the healthy control group (75.2±13.3vs 26.6±9.6, 89.2±12.7vs 33.9±8.3,P<0.05) ; Compared with the patients before surgery, 1 week after surgery, the P-selectin and L-selectin levels were not significantly decreased (63.8±11.1vs 75.2±13.3, 71.5±10.9vs 89.2±12.7,P>0.05); however, significantly decreased after 3 months (34.8±10.4vs 75.2±13.3, 40.1±9.5vs 89.2±12.7,P<0.01); This paper studied patients with colorectal cancer, the higher clinical stage, higher P-selectin and L-selectin levels, and their expression levels with tumor invasion depth, Dukes stage, histological grade and lymph node metastasis were related, but were not correlated with age, gender and tumor site. Meanwhile, P-selectin and L-selectin levels were not signiifcantly correlated in the same serum of patients with colorectal cancer (r=4.114,P>0.05).Conclusion:Serum P-selectin and L-selectin levels to some extent relfect the invasion of colorectal cancer, the degree of inifltration and lymph node metastasis, and which can be an important indicator in the development and prognosis of colorectal cancer.
