Objective To obtain the elasticity value of non-mass-like breast lesions with supersonic shear wave elastrography (SWE), in order to observe the value of quantitative elastography with SWE in differential diagnosis of non-mass-like breast lesions. Methods SWE was performed in 80 non-mass-like breast lesions. Taking pathologic results as reference, quantitative elasticity value of the lesions were performed. The diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity and speciifcity were calculated. Results In the 80 non-mass-like breast lesions, 37 lesions (46%) were malignant and 43 lesions (54%) were benign. The max and mean elasticity value of malignant lesions were (106.28±46.39) kPa and (51.02±30.06) kPa, and the max and mean elasticity value of benign lesions were (37.13±18.22) kPa and (26.44±15.62) kPa. There was statistical differences between malignant and benign lesions in max and mean elasticity values (t=15.328, 18.149, both P<0.05). Taking 61.25 kPa as the threshold of max elasticity value and 40.65 kPa as the threshold of mean elasticity value, the diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity and speciifcity were 70.53%, 66.83%, 51.22%and 68.34%, 65.81%, 50.63%, respectively. When max elasticity was combined with conventional ultrasound (US), the diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity and speciifcity were 84.17%, 92.28%and 68.39%, respectively. The diagnostic accuracy and speciifcity signiifcantly increased compared with conventional US (χ2=5.217, 9.652, both P<0.05). When mean elasticity was combined with conventional US, the diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity and speciifcity were 82.35%, 90.66%, and 63.35%, respectively. The diagnostic accuracy and speciifcity signiifcantly increased compared with conventional US (χ2=5.084, 8.686, both P<0.05). Conclusions The diagnostic accuracy and speciifcity of SWE for non-mass-like breast lesions are not high. But when SWE is combined with conventional US, the diagnostic accuracy and speciifcity increase signiifcantly, which is very helpful for the diagnostic of non-mass-like breast lesions.

Objective:To evaluate the reliability of several formulae for estimating the quantity of glucose absorption of peritoneal dialysate (GA).Methods:Forty-four patients receiving continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) were enrolled in this study. The quantities of GA obtained from actual measurement and estimation were compared to judge whether there was statistical difference between them.Results:The GA quantities estimated by Grodstein formula, Bodnar formula, K/DOQI formula, empirical method A (based on 60% absorption rate) and empirical method B (based on 50% absorption rate in daytime and 80% absorption rate in night) were as follows: 81.3 (64.2, 118.0) g, (97.8±19.7) g, (94.1±25.8) g, 87.1 (76.2, 109.0) g and (89.5±16.0) g, respectively; the actually measured GA quantity was [94.2 (77.5, 111.6)] g. Wilcoxon signed rank test of paired samples showed that only the results of Bodnar formula and K/DOQI formula did not present statistical differences from actually measured result.Conclusion:It can be considered to use Bodnar formula and K/DOQI formula to roughly estimate the GA quantity of CAPD patients, but to accurately understand the individual GA value, actual measurement is still required.

The aim of the study is to establish a platform to deliver therapeutic proteins into target cells through a polyarginine-based cell penetrating peptide. To facilitate the expression of therapeutic proteins, a pSUMO (Small Ubiquitin-like Modifier)-R9-EGFP (enhanced green fluorescence protein) prokaryotic expression vector was constructed. After induction, the fusion protein SUMO-R9-EGFP was efficiently expressed. To validate the cell penetrating ability of the fusion protein, HepG2 cells were incubated with the purified R9-EGFP or EGFP protein as control, internalization of the fluorescent proteins was examined by either flow cytometry or confocal microscopy. The result obtained by flow cytometry showed that the R9-EGFP fusion protein could efficiently penetrate into the HepG2 cells in a dose and time-dependent manner. In contrast, the fluorescence was barely detected in the HepG2 cells incubated with EGFP control. The fluorescence intensity of the R9-EGFP treated cells reached plateau phase after 1.5 h. The result obtained by confocal microscopy shows that R9-EGFP efficiently entered into the HepG2 cells and was exclusively located in the cytoplasm, whereas, no fluorescence was detected in the cells incubated with the EGFP control. The heparin inhibition experiment showed that heparin could inhibit penetrating effect of the R9-EGFP protein by about 50%, suggesting that the penetrating ability of the fusion protein is heparin-dependent. In summary, the study has established a platform to deliver therapeutic proteins into target cells through a polyarginine-based penetrating peptide.

Objective To observe the nuclear translocation of transcription factor NF-κB and IRF-3 in TLR4 silenced EVC304 cells infected by HTNV and to provide new information for anti-HTNV innate immunity and its signal transduction. Methods TLR4~- cells and TLR4~+ cells were infected by HTNV 76-118, respectively. The cells stimulated by LPS were selected as positive control groups, and the cells without stimulation were selected as negative control groups. After 6 hours, indirect immunofluorescence assay(IFA) was used to detect the nuclear translocation of NF-κB and IRF-3. Results The transcription factor NF-κB and IRF-3 transfered into nuclear 6 hours after stimulated by HTNV 76-118. Conclusion TLR4 may mediate the nuclear translocation of transcription factor NF-κB and IRF-3 in HTNV infected human umbilical vein endothelial cells.
