Objective To evaluate the application of CT myelography (CTM) in detecting the site of spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks and analyze it's imaging features.Methods Six patients (3 women and 3 men) with spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) were included, who met the criteria of the International Headache Classification (2nd edition, 2004). Five patients subsequently underwent whole spine MRI and all 6 patients underwent CTM. Autologous blood mixed with omnipaque (300 mg/ml) was injected followed by selective puncture at the leak site indicated by CTM. Results MRI was failed to find leak site in the 5 patients, whereas CTM successfully found leak sites in all 6 patients. There were 1 to 7 leak sites respectively with an average of 4.2 sites (totally 25 points). Leak sites at cervical (12 sites) and thoracic (12 sites) were more frequent than at lumbar (1 site). CTM was featured by linear leakage of the contrast medium along the spinal nerve roots, paraspinal collections of hyper-density contrast medium and beak-like enlargement of the nerve sleeves. All patients responded well to the treatment, with complete resolution of symptoms. Conclusion CTM has been shown to be a study of choice to accurately define the location and extent of a CSF leak.

Objective To study the role of deleted in liver cancer-1 (DLC-1) gene main domains on the regulation of human colon cancer HT29 cell proliferation.Methods Subcloning recombinant plasmid vectors with Rho GTPase activating protein (RhoGAP),sterile alpha motif (SAM) or steroidogenic acute regulatory-related lipid-transfer (START) domains of DLC-1 gene knockout were constructed and transfected into human colon cancer cell HT29.Wild HT29 cell group (control group),pcDNA3.1-HT29 cell group (vector group) and pcDNA3.1-HT29-DLC-1 cell group (whole DLC-1 gene transfected group) were set as control.The change of cell proliferation was detected by methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and colony formation test.The cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry.The activity of RhoA protein was detected by pull-down assay.The differences between the groups were analyzed by the analysis of variance.Results At 48 hours after the successful transfection,compared with control group and vector group,cells proliferation and the activity of RhoA protein were significantly suppressed in whole DLC-1 gene transfected group (F=146.36,698.08,both P＜0.05) and early cell apoptosis increased (F=294.08,P＜0.05).Compared with control group and vector group,there was no significant difference in cell proliferation ability,cell apoptosis and the activity of RhoA protein activity in RhoGAP knockout transfected cells (F=0.99,0.049,5.769,all P＞0.05).Compared with whole DLC-1 gene transfected group,the suppression of cell proliferation was more significant in SAM knockout transfected cells (F=31.00,P＜0.05),the activity of RhoA protein down regulated (F=92.57,P＜0.05) and apoptosis increased (F=130.44,P＜0.05).Compared with whole DLC-1 gene transfected group,the ability of cell proliferation increased (F=15.47,P＜0.05),apoptosis cell decreased (F＝110.23,P＜0.05) and the activity of RhoA protein up regulated (F=199.39,P＜0.05) in START knockout transfected cells.Conclusions The role of DLC-1 gene in the suppression of cell proliferation in HT29 cells was RhoGAP-dependent.SAM domain may be the self suppression domain for endogenous RhoGAP activity.START domain may take effect through enhancing RhoGAP domain.

OBJECTIVE:To compare the contents of loganic acid,swertiamarin,6′-O-β-D-glucosyl gentiopicroside,gentiopi-croside,sweroside,isoorientin and isovitexin in wild and cultivated Gentiana officinalis,and to provide basis for rational use of G. officinalis. METHODS:UPLC method was adopted. The separation was performed on ACQUITY UPLC? BEH C18 column (50 mm × 2.1 mm,1.7 μm) with mobile phase consisted of methanol-0.04% phosphoric acid (gradient elution) at the flow rate of 0.3 ml/min. The detection wavelength was set at 242 nm,and column temperature was 30 ℃. RESULTS:For loganic acid,swertiama-rin,6′-O-β- D-glucosyl gentiopicroside,gentiopicroside,sweroside,isoorientin and isovitexin,a good linearity was obtained in the range of 2.1-537.1 μg,1.05-270 μg,0.92-236 μg,11.1-2 830 μg,0.75-192 μg,0.167-102 μg,0.216-52.80 μg(r≥0.999 5), respectively. Their average recoveries were 97.72%-99.84%(RSD≤3.39%,n=6). The contents of loganic acid,swertiamarin, 6′-O-β-D-glucosyl gentiopicroside,gentiopicroside,sweroside and isoorientin in the wild sample were higher than in the cultivat-ed;the content of isovitexin was lower than the cultivated,but there was no statistical significance(P>0.05). The sum of gentiopi-croside and loganin acid content were all higher than 2.5% in both wild and cultivated samples,and met the requirements of 2015 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia(first part). CONCLUSIONS:The content difference of 7 indicative constituents in wild and cul-tivated G. officinalis is not statistically significant,and the indicative constituents of the pharmacopoeia is qualified.

Objective To explore the possibility and safety of ~(32)P-colloidal chromic phosphate interstitial injection.Methods Ten Beagle dogs were randomly divided into 5 groups (n ＝ 2) according to different doses (185 and 370 MBq) ,different sites (gluteus maximus and liver) and cold colloid as a control group.At different time-points after surgery,the weights of dogs were measured,and the blood and blood biochemical inspections were examined.ECT imaging was performed and histomorphology was observed dynamically.The radioactive counts of body surface for 90 days,blood for 12 weeks and urine and feces for 30 days were measured continuously.Measured data were expressed by mean ±standard error ((x) ±s) and SPSS 13.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Results ECT imaging demonstrated that the whole liver imaging was obtained although the radioactive distribution was uneven in liver groups,and the radioactivity concentrated continuously in the area of injection,but no liver imaging in muscle groups.Dogs in group 4 lost weight progressively and reduced by 2.7 kg till 45 d after operation.While the mean weight increments in the other groups were 3.0,1.6,0.8 and 3.1 kg in order.In group 4,PLT and RBC reduced obviously.Dogs died at 23 or 45 d.AST and ALT were elevated sharply before death.In the other groups,blood and blood biochemistry inspection showed there were no significant statistical differences.The highest radioactive counts after operation were obtained from the injection spot,while the urinary bladder and the spleen were followed.The peak of blood cpm in liver groups presented at 5 min.Peak values were 0.5 × 10~7/min and 1.0 × 10~7/min,respectively.The blood cpm in the muscle groups was always maintained at 3 × l0~5/min.Histology study showed the hyperemia dropsy changes in muscle groups and 185 MBq liver group in 4 weeks,while after 8 weeks the organizational structure restored normally.There were partial liver cells necrosis in 4 weeks,and the massive liver cells balloon type changes in 6 weeks,as well as obvious hyperemia dropsy and the hepatic lobe structure unclear in 370 MBq liver group.For the radioactive counts of urine and excrement,the peak appeared at 13 and 12 d respectively,and the peak values were (42.0 ±3.3) × 10~4 and (29.6 ±4.5) ×10~4 /min in muscle groups,respectively ;while the peak appeared at 5 and 9 d,respectively and the peak values were (49.0 ± 10.2) × 10~4 and (28.5 ± 7.1) × 10~4 /min in liver groups,respectively.Cumulative excretion ratios in urine and excrement were 36.58% and 10.62% in muscle groups,respectively and 23.48% and 8.76% in liver groups till 30 d,respectively.The liver absorbed doses were 30.6 and 55.6 Gy in liver groups,while those were 2.3 and 6.5 Gy in muscle groups.The maximus absorbed doses of gluteus were 53.4 and 98.1 Gy in muscle groups.Conclusions When ~(32)P- colloidal chromic phosphate of 794.39 MBq/m~2 was injected into the liver of Beagle,the liver absorbed dose was 56 Gy,which could be lethal dose for its strong liver toxicity and systemic side effects.Injection of 463.98-772.93 MBq/m~2 in muscle of Beagle could be safe.~(32) P-colloidal chromic phosphate interstitial injection is secure to treat the solid tumors with poor and middle blood supply which could be reached by puncture.
