1.Application of perfusion imaging in moyamoya disease
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2013;(2):117-121
Moyamoya disease is an uncommon chronic progressive occlusive cerebrovascular disease.It is mainly involved in the terminal internal carotid artery and the proximal portions of the anterior cerebral and middle cerebral arteries.Normally,there are differences between the conventional angiographic findings and the clinical manifestations and outcomes in moyamoya disease,while the perfusion imaging can provide important hemodynamic information.Currently,CT perfusion imaging and magnetic resonance perfusion imaging have been widely used in clinical practice.This article reviews the application of the two imaging techniques in moyamoya disease.

Objective:This study investigated the positive detection rate of cytoplasm thymidine kinase 1 (TK1) in lung cancer patients and the relationship of TK1 with clinicopathological features and prognosis. Methods:Sensitive chemiluminescence dot-blot assay was used to detect serum TK1 levels in 73 lung cancer patients and 56 normal control subjects. Results:The positive detection rate of TK1 was elevated in the lung cancer patients compared with the controls (P=0.006). The positive detection rate of TK1 was also correlated with distant metastases, but not with other factors, such as smoking, sex, lymph node metastasis, and pathology types. The 2 year survival of the patients with negative TK1 detection was significantly longer than that of the patients positively detected with the marker (P<0.001). Conclusion:Serum TK1, a new tumor marker, has potential applications in the diagnosis and prognosis of lung cancer.

Objective To discuss magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)scanning technology for ankle joint and its clinical value.Methods 42 cases of ankle joint trauma were examined with MRI using GPFLX coil.It was performed through sagittal T2WI,T2WI F/S,T1WI;coronal T2WI;axial T2WI.FOV was big enough for the whole trauma ankle joint.To make image clear,some soft materials should be placed between the trauma ankle joint and the GPFLX coil.The injured ankle joint was not allowed to move.The technology of No Phase Wrap is also necessary.Results The high quality rate was up to 90% for the ankle joint.Among 42 cases,6 had traumatic arthritis,14 had ankle joint contusion,9 had Achilles tendon rupture,6 had other structural injuries,4 had late degenerative change,and 3 had normal images.Conclusion MRI is a sensitive technique for injured ankle joint.It can accurately show the degree and location of ankle joint trauma.It has an important clinical significance in finding bone contusion and other structural injuries,and it is very helpful for treatment.

Objective To establish lung adenocarcinoma drug resistance cell strain induced by cis-diaminodichloroplatin and investigate the biologic characteristics and chromosome karyotype of cell strain.Methods Large dosage impact and step by step inducing method were used to establish A549 and SPC-A-1 drug resistance cells: A549/CDDP and SPC-A-1/CDDP.MTT was used to detect the cell drug resistance index. Bioluminescence was used to detect the energy metabolism.Cell cycle was analysed by flow cytometer.The differential staining technique and SKY were used to analyze the chromatosome of A549/CDDP and SPC-A-1/CDDP.Results The drug resistance index of A549/CDDP and SPC-A-1/CDDP were 14.0 and 12.0. The content of ATP,ADP and AMP decreased significantly.The cell cycle of A549/CDDP and SPC-A-1/CDDP were of no notable changes.The results of the differential staining technique and SKY showed that the chromatosome of A549/CDDP and SPC-A-1/CDDP had several derivative chromosomes.Both cells had the same derivative chromosome: der(21)t(21;22).Conclusion CDDP can induce lung adenocarcinoma cell strain drug resistance.The derivative chromosome,including der(21)t(21;22) may have relationship with the drug resistance of cell strains.

Objective To analyze the unbalanced state of hereditary material of squamous carcinoma, adenocarcinoma and other lung cancers. Methods Fifty-five patients suffered from lung cancer were included in this study, including 24 of squamous carcinoma, 13 of adenocarcinoma, 5 of adenosquanous carcinoma, 8 of bronchioalveolar carcinoma, 4 of small cell lung cancer and 1 of atypical carcinoma. The technology of comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was used. The normal DNA was obtained from 20 healthy male volunteers. Results The common extension region of squamous carcinoma was 2q, 5p, 11q and 22q, and the common deletion region was 1p, 4q, 5q, 6q, 8p, 9p, 10q, 11p, 13q, 18q and 21q. The common extension region of adenocarcinoma was 5p, 8q and 11q, and the common deletion region was 10p and 19. Conclusion The hereditary material of squamous carcinoma, adenocarcinoma and other lung cancers was unbalanced. The extension and deletion of chromatosome were the base of the occurrence of different lung cancer.

Radiotherapy is one of the main means of clinical treatment for cancer, although the continuous updating and development of technology and equipment, adverse reactions and side effects can't be avoided yet.Improving the clinical efficacy of radiotherapy and reducing its adverse reactions are the currently facing subjects.A large number of clinical studies showed that using traditional Chinese medicines(TCM)in tumor radiotherapy had significant effects of improving and controlling the clinical symptoms, improving the life quality of cancer patients, improving the sensitization of radiotherapy, preventing the tumor metastasis and recurrence, as well as improving immune function and long-term survival, etc.Meanwhile, TCM also had significant roles in reducing the damage of radioactive inflammation, decreasing the bone marrow suppression to improve peripheral blood, and reducing the toxicity of digestive system, etc.The combination of radiotherapy and TCM provides a broader space for the comprehensive treatment of tumors.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography(CEUS) in evaluating treatment response of hepatocellular carcinoma after interventional therapy. Methods One hundred and three patients with 136 lesions of hepatocellular carcinoma confirmed by pathology were examined by common color ultrasound (US), contrast-enhanced CT, CEUS and DSA pre- and post-interventional treatment respectively. Results The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of CEUS for focus judgment after interventional therapy were 95.8%, 95.6% and 98. 5% respectively. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of US in detecting tumor deactivation and residue were 92.3% ,77.4% and 83.1% respectively. CEUS were highly consistent with the results of enhanced CT/DSA (Kappa = 0.93) and significantly higher than those of US (Kappa = 0.66). Conclusions CEUS is useful to monitor the efficacy and guide treatment after interventional therapy.

Objective To establish a multidrug resistance cell line from human lung adenocarcinoma. Methods The human lung adenocarcinoma cell line SPC-A-1 was exposed to cisplatin of a high and then increasing concentration for 192 d to establish multidrug resistance cell line (SPC-A-1/CDDP). The relative resistance was tested with MTT assay. The morphology of the cells was observed with transmission and scanning electron microscopy and the chromosome of them was analyzed with Giemsa stained specimens. Results The resistance index of SPC-A-1/CDDP cells to cisplatin was 11.2 and the cells showed various cross-resistance to 5-Fu, doxorubicin, mitomycin, vincristine and etoposide, but not to hydroxycamptothecine. Electron microscopy showed the cells with irregular and enlarged nuclei and abundant microvilli. Conclusion A multidrug resistance cell line (SPC-A-1/CDDP) from human lung adenocarcinoma is established. It can be used to downstream experiment.

Methods After BamHⅠ and EcoRⅠ cut sites were added to the 5' ends of the upstream and downstream primers respectively, the partial positive regulatory sequence of NHE-1 gene was cloned with the length of 170 bp from genomic DNA of lung cancer cell line A549 cells with PCR method. The cloned fragment was ligated to plasmid pUC18. Finally, the constructed recombinant was identified with enzyme cut, PCR and DNA sequencing. Results The cloned fragment was about 170 bp in size and successfully ligated to pUC18 with identifiation of double enzyme cut and PCR. DNA sequencing approved that the fragment cloned was objective one with 168 bp in length. Compared with the reported sequence, two t were lost. Conclusion The positive regulatory fragment of NHE-1 gene from human lung cancer cells was successfully cloned.
