In the middle of 1990 s, it was discovered that sirolimus had inhibitory effect on the proliferation of T lymphocytes , therefore, it is used for the treatment of anti-tumor cells.At present, the dosage forms of sirolimus are capsules , oral liquid and tab-lets.However, because of good fat-soluble and poor water-soluble property, its bioavailability is low with many side reactions .In order to provide reference for the further studies of sirolimus , the literatures in recent years were searched in Pubmed , Springer, CJFD,VIP Chinese periodical database and Wanfang data , and the research progress in the new dosage forms of sirolimus was summarized .

Objective To study the image quality and radiation dose in dual-source CT cerebral angiography with prospective ECG-triggered sequence mode (step-and-shoot,SAS).Methods A total of forty-three patients with clinically suspected cerebral vascular disease underwent cerebral CT angiography with prospective ECG-triggering (step-and-shoot,SAS).Data acquisition was at 60% R-R interval of the ECG presentation mode.The post-processing included maximum intensity projection (MIP),multiplanar reformation (MPR) and volume rendering (VR).The CTA image quality,radiation dose and rates of excellent images were evaluated.Results The CTA image quality score was 4.72 ± 0.50 and 97.7% (42/43) patients had excellent CTA images.The average effective dose of SAS-CTA was (0.22 ± 0.01 )mSv,which was lower by 76.31% than that of DE-CTA.Conclusions Prospective ECG-triggering sequence could be used in cerebral angiography with a significant reduction in radiation dose and diagnostic image quality.

Objective To compare the quality and radiation doses of coronary artery angiography under the natural heart rate condition between Flash spiral heart mode and prospective electrocardiogramtriggering sequence mode using dual-source,in order to choose personalized low doses of coronary artery scanning mode.Methods Sixty patients who underwent coronary angiography(CTA)on a 128-slice,dualsource CT scanner were divided into 2 group i.e,group A(27cases)and group B(33 cases).Flash spiral heart scan mode was employed for group A.Inclusion criteria included:heart rate<65 bpm.regular sinus rhythm,heart rate fluctuation less than ±5 bpm.Date acquisition was set at 60% of the R-R interval.Prospective electrocardiogram-triggering sequence scan mode(SAS)was performod for group B.Inclusion criteria included:(1)heart rate≥65 bpm,(2)arrhythmias,premature beat,fibrillation atrial.Exclusion criteria included:bad holding breath.Date acquisition(1)At low heart rate(≤75 bpm),date acquisition was set at 60%-80%of the R-R interval.(2)At high heart rate(>75 bpm),date acquisition was set at 30%-50%of the R-R interval. (3)At the arrhythmias,premature beat,fibrillation atrial,date acquisition was set at 20%-90%of the R-R interval.In both gronps,patients with a BMI≥25.0kg/m2 were examined with a tube voltage of 120 kV.while the other patients with a BMI<25.0 kg/m2 were examined with a tube voltage of 100 kV.The BMl was(24.6±1.0)kg/m2 in group A,while that was (24.6±0.9)kg/m2 in group B.In both groups,all images were transferred to the workstation for further processing and analysis.The imaging quality of coronary artery segments and the radiation dose were compared with t test.Results A total of 336 coronary artery segments were evaluated in group A and 412 segments were evaluated in group B.The imaging quality of coronary artery segments were scored.Excellent or good was achieved in 98.2%(330 of 336)artery segments in group A,and that was 98.1%(404 of 412)in group B.There was no statistical difference in imaging quality between the two groups(t=0.513,P=0.608).The average effective dose was(0.74±0.29)mSv in group A,whereas that was(3.67±1.37)mSv in group B.There was a significant difference between the two groups(t=-10.858,P=0.000).Conclusions The personalized low doses coronary artery scanning mode can substantially reduce radiation damage while preserving good imaging quality.

OBJECTIVETo establish a method through which murine bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can be induced into hepatocytes in vitro.
METHODSA conditioned medium of injured hepatocytes (with CCl4 in vivo) was used to culture the isolated MSCs. The differentiated cells were identified by morphological observation, reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), immunofluorescence assay (for AFP, Albumin, and CK18) and periodic acid schiff reaction (PAS) for glycogen.
RESULTSThe differentiated cells showed characteristics of hepatocytes. PT-PCR detected AFP mRNA on day 5 and it increased gradually until day 15, and then decreased; CK18 mRNA was detected on day 10; TAT was detected on day 20. Immunofluorescence assay for AFP, albumin and CK18 showed positive staining reactions on day 20. PAS positive glycogen granules appeared in the cytoplasm of the differentiated cells.
CONCLUSIONMSCs of adult mice cultured in a conditioned medium of injured hepatocytes can differentiate into hepatocytes. This method can be used in further studying of the mechanism of transdifferentiation of MSCs into hepatocytes.
