Objective To track superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)-labeled pancreatic islet cells in rats using 3.0T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and to detect the survival and rejection of grafts after transplantation. Methods Twenty male Wistar rats and 5 male Lewis rats were included in the study. SPIO-labeled pancreatic islet cells were tracked using a GE 3.0T Signa Excite MRI scanner with an animal coil. The images of SPIO-labeled islet cells in rats after transplantation were compared with those of the unlabeled ones. FSE T2WI sequence and GRE T2*WI sequence were used for the detection. The sensitivity of images for detection of grafts was also compared. SPIO-labeled pancreatic islet cells isolated from Wistar and Lewis rats were transplanted into the liver of Wistar rats. Afterwards, the survival and rejection of islet cells were observed sequentially in these two growps. The rats in the syngeneic group were sacrificed 3 months post-transplantation, while the rats in the allogeneic group were sacrificed 3 weeks post-transplantation. MRI of the grafts were correlated with the pathological results. Results SPIO-labeled pancreatic islet cells were seen on MRI as distinct homogenous, hypointense spots in the liver. GRE T2*WI were more sensitive to the detection of SPIO-labeled islet cells than FSE T2WI. The relative count of hypointense spots in the syngeneic group were (90.03±9.52)%, (92.87±18.21)% and (86.25±24.81)%, respectively at 1 week, 2 weeks and 3 weeks after transplantation, while the relative count in the allogeneic group were (41.40±15.41)%, (33.41±14.01)% and (23.58±16.78)%, respectively. The difference between these counts was statistically significant (P<0.01). Iron particles were detected only in the SPIO-labeled cells. Three months post-transplantation, the grafts were found well-preserved in the liver of the rats of the syngeneic group, while only a few grafts were found in that of the allogeneic group. Conclusions MRI can be used to track SPIO-labeled islet cells in vivo, and has significant value in detecting the survival and rejection of grafts after transplantation in rats.

Aim To assess the protective role of chry-sophanol in rats with diabetes-associated cognitive de-cline (DACD) and explore the potential molecular mechanisms.Methods The learning and memory performance was assessed by Morris water maze test;the activities of AChE,ChAT,iNOS and oxidative stress markers including CAT,SOD and GSH-PX in the hippocampus were detected using respective com-mercial kits.The level of BDNF was also measured with commercial ELISA kit.Results Chrysophanol significantly improved learning and memory functions in the diabetic groups.Additionally,the activities of AChE,BDNF also found to be evidently increased, while decreased activities of ChAT,iNOS,CAT,SOD and GSH-PX were observed in the hippocampus of dia-betic rats.Conclusions Collectively,chrysophanol has a protective role against DACD and this neuropro-tection is associated with increasing BDNF level.Chry-sophanol can also suppress the activities of iNOS, CAT,SOD and GSH-PX in diabetic rats.It is likely to be a novel therapeutic drug for the treatment of diabetic patients with cognitive deficits in clinical practice.

Objective:To explore the effect of radiotherapy on the FHIT protein expression and cell apoptosis of cervical squamous carcinoma and discuss the relationship between FHIT protein expression and cell apoptosis. Methods:Expression of FHIT protein was measured by immunohistochemical method and cell apoptosis was detected by TdT-mediated dUTP terminal nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining in 50 cases of squamous cell cervical carcinoma at ⅡB-ⅢB stages before, during (Dt 10 Gy and Dt 30 Gy), and after radiotherapy. Results:Of the 50 patients, the positive rates of the expression of FHIT protein was 56% at Dt 10 Gy, 68% at Dt 30 Gy, and 84% after radiotherapy, which were significantly increased compared with that before radiotherapy (36%, P<0.05). The positive rates of cell apoptosis was 52% at Dt 10 Gy, 64% at Dt 30 Gy and 78% after radiotherapy, which were significantly elevated compared with that before radiotherapy (28%, P<0.05). In the process of radiotherapy, cell apoptosis was positively related to the expression of FHIT protein (P<0.05). Conclusion:Radiotherapy reinforces the expression of FHIT protein and induces apoptosis cocurrently. FHIT protein has regulatory effects in cell apoptosis induced by radiotherapy.

Objective To investigate the Adamkiewicz artery visualization using gemstone spectral CT angiography (CTA) with optimal monochromatic technique.Methods The prospective study was approved by the local institutional review board,and written informed consents were obtained for all the examinations.The successive 58 patients with suspected aortic aneurysm or dissection underwent aortic gemstone spectral CTA.They were divided into two groups based on the different reconstruction protocols:A,optimal monochromatic reconstruction;B,polychromatic reconstruction.Visualization rate of Adamkiewicz artery in two groups were recorded.Objective(measure CT value of the descending aorta and calculate signal-to-noise ratio [CNR]) and subjective (score of Adamkiewicz artery visualization) were evaluated.Paired samples t,Chi-square and Mann-Whitney U test were used for statistical analysis.Results CT value of descending aorta and CNR of group A [(568.4 ± 57.5)HU and (52.3 ± 8.1)] were significantly higher than group B[(346.2 ± 48.6)HU and (26.7 ± 3.7)] (t=12.70 and 15.20,P＜0.01).The visualization rate of Adamkiewicz artery in group A (94.8％,55/58) was higher than B (82.8％,48/58;x2=4.20,P=0.04).The score of group A (55 cases,3.9±0.8) was significantly higher than the group B (48 cases,3.4±1.0)(Z=-2.40,P=0.02).Conelusion Gemstone spectral CTA with optimal monochromatic reconstruction can improve the visualization efficiency and quality of the Adamkiewicz artery compared with routine polychromatic reconstruction protocol.

Objective To explore the effects of Buyang Huanwu decoction(BYHWD)on expressions of nuclear factor-κB p65(NF-κBp65)and its inhibitor( I-κB)in signal transduction of NF-κB in brain tissue of rats with focal cerebral ischemia injury. Methods 180 Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were randomly divided into normal group,sham-operated group,model group,pynolidine dithiocarbamate(PDTC)group,minocycline(MC)group and BYHWD treatment group,each group 30 rats. The rats of PDTC group were given PDTC 100 mg?kg-1?d-1 by intra-peritoneal injection. In MC group,MC was given by filling the stomach,the dose was 2.35 g?kg-1?d-1,the drug solution was prepared by adding the distilled water,and the total volume of drug solution to fill the stomach was kept at the same volume in various groups,thus the concentration of the drug was different. In BYHWD group,BYHWD was given,the dose was reduced to 5 g?kg-1?d-1 according to the body surface area dose conversion formula about people and animals. In sham-operated group and model group,the distilled water was given in the same volume as other drug solution. The protein expression levels of NF-κBp65 and I-κB in ischemic tissues were examined by using immunohistochemical method on the time points 7,14 and 21 days after treatment in each group. Results Compared with model group, the cell numbers with expression of NF-κBp65 in PDTC group,MC group and BYHWD group were significantly decreased along with the prolongation of therapy time,the decrease in number was more and more,until 21 days,it reached the valley level(cell/400 times HP:44.00±6.91,45.33±6.55,18.67±2.14 vs. 126.00±5.78,all P<0.05);the number of cells with expression of I-κB was obviously increased,the differences being statistically significant(all P<0.05),but the differences in expression of NF-κBp65 among the treatment groups at the different time points were not statistically significant(all P>0.05). After treatment for 7 days,the number of cells with positive expression of I-κB protein in BYHWD group was less than that in MC group(cell/400 times HP:55.00±3.40 vs. 72.50±4.29,P<0.05);after treatment for 14 days,the number in BYHWD group was approximately the same as that in the MC group, the difference being not statistically significant(93.50±6.15 vs. 93.00±6.20,P>0.05),and after treatment for 21 days,the number in BYHWD group was significantly higher than that in MC group(88.83±4.95 vs. 71.17±7.16, P<0.05). Conclusion BYHWD can regulate the expressions of inflammatory cytokine I-κB and NF-κB in signal transduction of NF-κB in ischemic brain tissue to inhibit the inflammatory reaction,thus it has the protective effect on cerebral ischemia.
