Objective:To design and construct the replication-deficient recombinant adenovirus Ad-siCTGF which can silence the expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) by RNA interference and verified its function. Methods:A specific sequence, which was verified to be able to silence CTGF gene with high efficiency, was cloned into pSES-HUS vector to produce the shuttle plasmid pSES-siCTGF. The plasmid after Pme Ⅰ linearization was cotransduced with pAdEasy into BJ5183 E.coli strains to construct recombinant vector Ad-siCTGF. After linearization treatment with Pac Ⅰ enzyme digestion Ad-siCTGF was transfected into HEK293 cells via liposome mediation. The recombinant adenovirus was packaged. The titer of the Ad-siCTGF was increased after three times of cross-infection. 4T1 cells were infected with the adenovirus. The silencing efficiency was tested by real-time fluorescence quantitative (RFQ)-PCR and Western blotting.Results:Pac Ⅰ enzyme digestion electrophoresis indentified that recombinant adenovirus was successfully constructed. The titer of the recombinant adenovirus Ad-siCTGF was 2.6×10~(10) pfu/mL after amplification and purification. The CTGF mRNA and protein expression in 4T1 cells were decreased by 36.27% and 31.56%, respectively, compared with the control groups.Conclusion:The recombinant adenovirus which can silence the expression of CTGF was successfully constructed. It laid a good foundation for further investigation of the action mechanism of CTGF in tumor cells.

Objective To evaluate the imaging features of benign fibrous histiocytoma (BFH).Methods Imaging data were retrospectively collected and reviewed in 11 patients with pathologically proved BFH.Of the 11 patients,X-ray was performed in all patients,MR scans in 6 patients,and CT scans in 4 patients.Results ALL lesions detected were a solitary lesion.The distribution of BFH was in the tibia (n =5 ),femur ( n =3),fibula ( n =1 ),sacrum ( n =1 ),and thoracic vertebrae ( n =1 ).X-ray features included eccentric osteolytic lesions in 7 patients and centric in 2 patients,with clear boundary and thinning of the cortex,and 7 patients with varying degrees of ossified border were found. CT scan shows bone destruction with density similar to soft tissue.The majority of lesions ( n =3 ) were observed in the expanding shell of bone,2 patients in the tibia and 1 patient in the thoracic lesions with cortical bone perforation.The thoracic lesion as soft tissue mass was detected. All of the lesions detected in CT showed no periosteal reaction.In patients with MR images,hypo to isointense signal intensity on T1WI and hyperintense signal intensity on T2WI was found. All lesions on post-contrast T1WI were detected with homogeneous or heterogeneous lesion with moderate or significant enhancement.Conclusion Imaging features were typical for MFH which is useful tool helping correct diagnosis of MFH.
