Objective To study the inhibitory effects of adenovirus-mediated fusion gene system driven by KDR promoter(AdKDR-CDglyTK) on angiogenesis and growth of pancreatic cancer.Methods The nude mice model was reproduced bearing pancreatic cancer cell lines Capan-2.Twenty nude mice were randomly and equally divided into four groups: AdKDR-CDglyTK and 5-FC/GCV were injected to the animals of group Ⅰ;group Ⅱ received 5-FC/GCV injection,group Ⅲ received AdKDR-CDglyTK injection,and group Ⅳ as control,received neither AdKDR-CDglyTK nor 5-FC/GCV.AdKDR-CDglyTK was injected directly into the tumor,while 5-FC/GCV was given by intraperitoneal injection.The treatment efficiency in each group was observed and the tumor microvessel density(MVD) was analyzed.RT-PCR was employed to examine the expression of CDglyTK in tumors.Results Tumor growth was dramatically inhibited in group Ⅰ,while no significant difference was found in group Ⅱ,group Ⅲ and group Ⅳ.The MVD in the four groups were 2.08?0.79,10.01?0.77,9.91?0.63 and 10.39?1.35,respectively(F=93.29,P=0.00).The MVD decreased significantly in group Ⅰ compared to the other three groups(P0.05).RT-PCR showed that a 2.4kB fragment had been amplified in the tumor tissues of groupⅠand group Ⅲ,but not in groupⅡand group Ⅳ.Conclusion AdKDR-CDglyTK with 5-FC and GCV can significantly inhibit the angiogenesis and growth of implanted pancreatic cancer in nude mice.

Objective To compare the diagnostic efficiency in showing the responsible blood vessels for neurovascular compression in patients with trigeminal neuralgia by 3D‐FIESTA‐C and 3D‐TOF‐MRA sequences .Methods The imaging data of 60 patients with primary trigeminal neuralgia were analyzed retrospectively .After MRI examination ,all of the patients underwent micro‐vascular de‐compression (MVD) .3D‐TOF‐MRA and 3D‐FIESTA‐C sequences were performed to evaluate the three‐dimensional relationship be‐tween trigeminal nerve and blood vessels through the original and reconstructed image .The intraoperative endoscopic findings were set as the gold standard comparing to the manifestations of 3D‐TOF‐MRA and 3D‐FIESTA‐C .Results The sensitivities of 3D‐TOF‐MRA and 3D‐FIESTA‐C for the diagnosis of the existence of responsible vessels were 85 .7% ,89 .3% ,the specificities were 75 .0% , 100% ,and the accuracies were 85 .0% ,90 .0% ,respectively (P=1 .000) .Furthermore ,the sensitivities of 3D‐TOF‐MRA and 3D‐FIESTA‐C for the diagnosis of the existence of responsible arteries were 94 .1% ,88 .2% (P=0 .244) ,while the sensitivities of the responsible veins were 0 .00% and 88 .2% (P=0 .009) .Conclusion Both the 3D‐FIESTA‐C and 3D‐TOF‐MRA sequences can accurately deter‐mine the existence of responsible vessels in trigeminal neuralgia before surgery .3D‐FIESTA‐C sequence is superior to 3D‐TOF‐MRA for presenting the responsible veins ,which can be used as a supplemental diagnostic tool before operation .

Objective To investigate the feasibility, safety and effectiveness of stent-assisted coil embolization for the treatment of intracranial wide-necked aneurysms. Methods The clinical and imaging data of the patients with intracranial wide-necked aneurysm treated with stent-assisted coil embolization were analyzed retrospectively. Results A total of 200 patients with 205 aneurysms were enrolled. The mortality was 1. 5% and the disability rate was 1. 0% at discharge. One hundred seventy-seven patients were followed up for 16-51 months. The modified Rankin Scale scores: 0 in 174 cases, 2 in 2 cases, 4 in 1 case. Eleven patients (5. 5% ) had perioperative complications, including intraoperative bleeding in 3 cases, postoperative bleeding in 3 cases, postoperative cerebral infarction in 2 cases, coil protrusion in 2 cases, and postoperative epileptic seizure in 1 case. Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in the proportions of male patients (9. 1% vs. 5. 3% ; χ2 = 4. 42, P = 0. 026), hypertension (54. 5% vs. 23. 3% ; χ2 = 5. 42, P = 0. 03) and stent prior to coil implantation (54. 5% vs. 85. 1% ; χ2 = 3. 54, P =0. 021) between the complication group and the noncomplication group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the pre-stenting was an independent protective factor for surgery-related complications (odds ratio [OR] 0. 208, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0. 055-0. 791; P = 0. 021), and hypertension was an independent risk factor for surgery-related complications (OR 4. 380, 95% CI 1. 170-16. 399; P = 0. 028). The imaging follow-up of 167 aneurysms was obtained, including 26 recurrent aneurysms (15. 6% ). Univariate analysis showed that there was significant difference in the aneurysm site (anterior circulation aneurysms: 73. 1% vs. 89. 1% ; posterior circulation aneurysms: 26. 9% vs. 10. 6% ; χ2 = 5. 09, P = 0. 033) and size (giant aneurysms: 7. 7% vs. 0. 7% ; large artery aneurysm: 65. 4% vs. 29. 1% ; small aneurysms:26. 9% vs. 70. 2% ; χ2 = 20. 77, P < 0. 001) between the recurrence group and the nonrecurrence group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that large aneurysms (OR 6. 057, 95% CI 2. 296-5. 983; P <0. 001), giant aneurysms (OR 25. 260, 95% CI 1. 903- 335. 267; P = 0. 014 ), and posterior circulation aneurysms ( OR 3. 184, 95% CI 1. 028- 9. 857; P = 0. 045 ) were the independent risk factors of postoperative recurrence. Conclusions Stent-assisted coil embolization is one of the effective methods for the treatment of complex wide-neck aneurysms. Hypertension and coils prior to stenting are the independent risk factors for perioperative complications, and larger aneurysm size and aneurysms in the posterior circulation are the independent risk factors for postoperative recurrence.

Objective To explore the down-regulation of advanced receptor for advanced glycation end products(RAGE)on expression of high mobility group protein B1(HMGB1)in glioma cells line and the volume change of transplanted tumor in nude mice. Methods HMGB1 expression in glioma LN229 cells line (divided into a control group and a study group) was observed by immunohistochemical assay and Western blot. The control group received normal saline,whereas the study group received RAGE receptor blocking agent FPS-ZM1. Expression of HMGB1 protein was detected by the same methods. The difference of the expression was examined by independent sample t test. 30 Nu/Nu nude mice were randomly divided into two groups;the above two kinds cell lines were injected into the same area of the left back of nude mice. Six weeks after injection ,the volume size was measured six times ,and the variance of repeated measurement data was used to analyze the difference of the volume change. Results HMGB1 protein was mainly expressed in the cytoplasm and nucleus. As compared with the control group,HMGB1 protein expression levels were decreased in the study group(P < 0.05),the growth rate of transplanted tumor in nude mice was significantly faster in the control group than in the study group ,the difference was statistically significant(P < 0.05). Conclusions The growth and invasion of HMGB1 protein may be involved in glioma by RAGE receptor. RAGE receptor blocker FPS-ZM1 can significantly reduce the expression of HMGB1 protein and inhibit the growth of transplanted tumor volume. It is expected to be used for the research on glioma cell apoptosis.
