Objective: To evaluate the cytotoxicity and targeting ability of self-developed paclitaxel-octreotide (PTX-OCT) conjugates on A549 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells and Calu-6 NSCLC cells. Methods: Conjugates PTX-OCT and 2PTX-OCT were synthesized by our school. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was used to detect mRNA of human somatostatin receptor subtypes (SSTRs) using specific primers. The cells were treated with different concentrations (1, 100 nmol/L and 1 ?mol/L) of paclitaxel and the conjugates for different time periods (24-72 h); we also set up a control group. MTT assay was used to evaluate the cell viability after treatment; cell cycle perturbations were determined by FAC Scan flow cytometer 24 h after treatment with 1 ?mol/L paclitaxel, PTX-OCT, and 2PTX-OCT. Results: Both A549 cell and Calu-6 cell expressed the mRNA of SSTR2 and SSTR5; no SSTR mRNA was detected in the fibroblasts. The conjugates had a similar cytotoxicity to paclitaxel; they both effectively inhibited the growth of A549 cells and Calu-6 cells in a concentration-and time-dependent manner. After 72 h treatment with 1 ?mol/L paclitaxel, PTX-OCT and 2PTX-OCT, the survival rates of A549 cells were (26.9?7.3)%, (26.6?9.2)% and (35.7?4.3)%, respectively; the survival rates of Calu-6 cells were (29.5?5.0)%, (28.2?9.7)% and (26.5?4.9)%, respectively. The survival rate A549 cells at 72 h after treatment was lower than that at 24 h after treatment(P

Objective To analyze the surgical and pathologic features of isolated ascending aortitis without evidence of rheumatologic or autoimmune diseases by comparing that of Takayasu's arteritis.Methods Consecutive 965 excised ascending aortas were reviewed and 40 cases with aortitis were selected from the pathological archives of past 20 years in Fuwai Hospital.The clinical history,laboratory and angiographic data,surgical findings,steroid therapy and followup results of these 40 cases were reviewed.Pathological parameters included the thickness of aortic wall and its various layers,inflammation activity,multinuclear giant cells,inflammatory necrosis,laminar necrosis and atheroselerosis.The t test and Chi square analysis were used to compare the means and the rates between the two groups.Results Twenty-five of 40 cases were diagnosed with isolated aortitis and its prevalencei was 2.6%(25/965),while 8 cases with Takayasu's arteritis and 7 cases with other vasculitis were confirmed.The age of isolated ascending aortitis was older than that of Takayasu's arteritis[(46±12)y vs(34±14)y,t=2.30,P>0.05] while the male/female ratio was similar in both groups(1.1 vs 1.0,t=0.01,P>0.05).Their main clinical manifestation was aortic aneurysm with a bigger aortic diameter in isolated aortitis than that in Takayasu's arteritis [(59±18)vs(46±12)mm,P>0.05].The asymptomatic cages mostly were found in isolated ascending aortitis (28%vs 0,x2=2.98,P>0.05).The erythrocyte sedimentary rate was normal in isolated aortitis but increased in Takayasu's arteritis[(15±17)mm/1 hvs[27±25)mm/1 h,U=48.50,P<0.05 ].Inflammatory edema,thickening and calcification were noted in more than half cases of both groups.but slighter thickening of aortic wall was foand in isolated ascending aortitis in contrast to the remarkable thickening in Takayasu artefifis[(2506±493)vs (3300±430)μm,t=-3.00,P<0.01].Giant cells,inflammatory necrosis,laminar necrosis and accompanied atherosclerosis were more common in isolated ascending aortitis.Aortic regurgitation was common but inflammatory invasion wege found in few aortic valves. Steroid was prescribed in 5 cases with isolated ascending aortitis and none of them was reported with complications while aortic perivalvular leakage occurred in 3 of 20 cases without steroids therapy. In the Takayasu's arteritis cases, new aneurysm of abdominal aorta was found in 1 of 3 cases with steroid therapy. Meanwhile, perivalvular leakage and subclavian artery stenosis occurred in 2 of 5 cases without steroid. Conclusion Isolated aortitis is more common than Takayasu's arteritis in ascending aortic diseases and there is some definite difference in clinical and pathological aspects between these two diseases. Since the effect of steroid therapy is uncertain and in order to avoid overtreatment, we suggest that steroid should not be given to cases with isolated ascending aortitis after surgery and clinical and angiographic follow-up should be emphasized.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and therapeutic effect of kyphoplasty in treating severe osteoporotic vertebral compressive fractures. Methods Thirty-five patients (48 vertebral bodies) with severe osteoporotic compressive fractures were included. There were 33 females and 2 males with the mean age of 74.2 years. The average compressive rate of the affected vertebral bodies was 77.0%. The thoracolumbar vertebrae were treated with kyphoplasties. Percutaneous puncture direction was adjusted according to compressive rate and shape of the vertebral bodies. The inflatable bone tamp was inserted into the fractured vertebral body. The balloon was inflated with low pressure and dilate-relieve-dilate method was applied. The balloon was deflated and withdrawn, leaving a cavity within the vertebral body, which then fulfilled with visualized bone cement. Preoperative and postoperative symptom level, complications and radiographic findings were recorded. Results All 35 patients tolerated procedure well. The mean heights of the anterior, mid and posterior vertebral body had improved from (0.8±0.1) cm, (0.8±0.2) cm, (2.1 ±0.8) cm preoperatively to (1.2±0.3) cm, (1.3±0.2) cm, (2.3±1.0) cm respectively after operation (P <0.05). There was significance difference between preoperative and postoperative heights of the anterior and mid vertebral body. The mean kyphosis was improved from 28.2°±5.2° before operation to 19.1°±4.9° after operation. Conclusion Kyphoplasty is feasible and effective for severe osteoporotic vertebral compressive fractures.

OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of alcohol extract of Toddalia asiatica on the inflammation-associated cytokines of model rats with adjuvant arthritis(AA). METHODS:70 SD rats were randomly divided into a normal control group,a model con-trol group,a positive control chemical medicine group(Leflunomide tablets,0.012 g/kg),a positive control TCM group(Tripter-ygium glycosides tablets,0.012 g/kg)and the groups of low,medium and high-dose [1,4,6 g(crude drug)/kg] alcohol extract of T. asiatica,with 10 rats in each group. The rats in all groups except for the normal control group were given complete Freund’s complete adjuvant id for the establishment of AA models. At the same time,the rats in the drug administration groups were given corresponding drugs ig,while those in the normal control group and the model control group were given isometric normal saline ig,twice a day,for 28 consecutive days. The degree of toe swelling,arthritis index and the levels of interleukin(IL)-1β,IL-6, IL-10,tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α)and prostaglandin E2(PGE2)in serum and synovial membranes of all groups of rats were determined. RESULTS:Compared to the normal control group,the model control group demonstrated higher degree of primary and secondary toe swelling,arthritis index and levels of IL-1β,IL-6,TNF-αand PGE2 in serum and joint synovial membrane,and low-er level of IL-10 therein(P<0.01). Compared to the model control group,all the above-mentioned indexes of the rats in drug ad-ministration groups significantly improved(P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:The alcohol extract of T. asiatica. has a preven-tive and therapeutic effect on the model rats with AA by regulating the expression of anti-inflammatory and proinflammatory cyto-kines in serum and synovial membrane.
