Objective To investigate the influence of 18F-FDG on the proliferation of Lewis lung cancer cell line,and to elucidate its possible mechanism.Methods Morphological changes of cells after culture for 24 h at different concentrations of 0,0.37,1.85,3.70 and 7.4 (×106) Bq/ml of 18F-FDG were observed by using inverted microscopy and electron microscopy.The apoptosis and phase distribution of cell cycle of irradiated cells were analyzed with flow cytometry.DNA synthesis of irradiated cells was assayed by 3H-TdR incorporation.Lipid peroxidation was measured by chromometry and expression of Bcl-2 and Bax protein was measured by immunohistochemical technique.Results Exposed to (0-7.40) × 106Bq/ml of 18F-FDG for 24 h,the cumulative absorbed doses delivered to cells in five groups were 0,0.11,0.55,1.10 and 2.20 Gy,respectively.Irradiated cells showed morphological changes of apoptosis.The apoptosis rate of irradiated cells was increased from (4.05 ± 0.01)% to (25.6 ± 0.28) % (t = 188,P<0.01).3H-TdR incorporation rate was decreased from 100% to(22.0 ± 0.51)% (t =27.6,P <0.05).The levels of M DA in cells were augmented from (0.08 ± 0.03) to (0.67 ± 0.12) μmol/L (t =11.7,P < 0.01).Cell cycle arrest was found in G2/M phase with the increasing doses from 0 to 2.20 Gy.The expression of Bcl-2 protein was decreased while that of Bax protein increased.Conclusions 18F-FDG could induce the apoptosis of cells and inhibit the proliferation of cells.

The mitochondria in liver tissue not only provides energy for substance metabolism in hepatocytes, but also participates in hepatocellular injury and even apoptosis. It also plays an important role in several pathological processes closely associated with hepatocellular injury and apoptosis, such as hepatitis, hepatic fibrosis, precancerous lesion, and liver cancer. This article elaborates on the association between mitochondria and hepatocellular injury from the following aspects: the important role of the change in mitochondrial membrane permeability in hepatocellular injury, hepatocellular injury accelerated by ATP synthesis disorder and consumption, and the association of abnormal Ca2+ homeostasis in hepatocellular mitochondria with hepatocellular injury, in order to provide a theoretical basis for mitochondria-targeted prevention and treatment of chronic liver diseases due to hepatocellular injury.

Objective:To explore the value of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in the pathogen diagnosis of liver abscess.Methods:A perspective study was performed in 35 hospitalized patients with liver abscess in Department of Emergency Medicine, Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University from February 2020 to April 2021. Blood samples and abscess drainage fluid samples were detected by routine microbial culture and mNGS. Patients were divided into two groups according to whether they had septic shock or not. SPSS 25.0 was used for statistical analysis.Results:The overall positive rate of mNGS in blood samples and drainage fluid samples was significantly higher than that of routine microbial culture methods (blood: 67.6% vs. 15.2%, P<0.05; Drainage fluid: 100% vs. 55.2%, P<0.05). In 35 patients with liver abscess, 71.4% of the pathogens were Klebsiella pneumoniae. The sequence number of pathogenic pathogens detected by mNGS in abscess drainage fluid samples of patients in the shock group was significantly higher than that in the non-shock group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The mNGS can quickly and accurately detect the pathogen of liver abscess, which can provide important etiological diagnostic for clinical treatment.

OBJECTIVE To compare characteristic chromatogram and the contents of multiple indicator components of Morus alba decoction powder and decoction at different decoction time, and to provide experimental basis for the development of M. alba decoction. METHODS Taking decoction powder and decoction at different decoction time as subject, HPLC characteristic chromatogram of 2 kinds of samples were established with Similarity Evaluation Software System of TCM Chromatographic Fingerprint (2012 version), and similarity evaluation was performed. The contents of mulberroside A, geniposide, berberine, baicalin, quercetin and luteolin in decoction powder and decoction were determined by HPLC. The contents of each indicator component and the change of total content were as the evaluation indexes to compare the difference between the two substances during decoction. RESULTS The similarities of characteristic chromatogram of the two substances ranged from 0.943 to 1.000 and 0.975 to 0.998 at different decoction time, respectively. Six indicator components of the decoction powder dissolved faster and had higher contents. The contents of each indicator component in the decoction powder when decocting at 20 minutes was 1.1-1.5 times of the decoction when decocting at 50 min, and the total content in the decoction powder was 1.2 times of the decoction. CONCLUSIONS Compared with decoction, M. alba decoction powder has the advantages of shortening the decoction time and saving traditional Chinese medicine resources. The results of this study lay a research foundation for “Zungu” to develop its preparation.
