Objective To evaluate if 18F-FLT PET imaging could be used as a new clinical method to predict tumor radiosensitivity.Methods MDA-MB-231 and LN229 cells were irradiated with doses of 0,8 and 16 Gy of 6 MV photon energy,then soft agar assay and cellular uptake of 18F-FLT were performed on the 2 cell lines.The t test and one-way analysis of variance were used for the two groups and data before and after irradiation.The MDA-MB-231 and LN229 tumor xenografts were prepared by injecting the tumor cells into the right limbs of female BALB/c nu/nu mice.Once tumors reached a diameter of 10 mm,the two types of mice were divided randomly into 3 groups (20 mice per group) according to the irradiation doses (0,8 and 16 Gy).After irradiation,18F-FLT PET imaging and immunohistochemical staining were conducted.Then correlations between 18F-FLT SUVtumor/SUVmuscle ratio (T/M ratio) and TK1 labeling index percentages (LITK1) were tested using linear correlation analysis.Results The survival fraction of MDA-MB-231 and LN229 cells after irradiated with 8 Gy were (59.73 ± 4.3) ％ and (93.41 ± 3.75) ％,respectively (t =-13.20,P ＜ 0.001).When the dose increased to 16 Gy,the survival fraction decreased to (43.57 ±4.06) ％ and (81.77 ± 4.42) ％,respectively(t =-14.24,P ＜ 0.001).In MDA-MB-231 cells,the cellular uptake of 18F-FLT after irradiation with 8 Gy declined rapidly to (18.32 ± 1.38) kBq/105 cells ((128.22 ± 8.24) kBq/105 cells with the dose of 0 Gy,F =266.41,P ＜ 0.01),and maintained this low level till 72 h.For the LN229 cells,the cellular uptake decreased to (9.87 ± 1.30) kBq/105 cells after 8 Gy irradiation ((134.88 ± 6.59) kBq/105 cells with the dose of 0 Gy,F =346.06,P ＜ 0.01),then increased gradually to (127.17 ± 9.08) kBq/105 cells at 72 h (F =346.06,P ＞ 0.05).The dynamic changes of 18F-FLT cellular uptake in the two cells had the same pattern after being treated with 16 Gy irradiation.In the 18F-FLT PET image of MDA-MB-231 tumor mice after 8 Gy radiotherapy,the T/M ratio decreased to 0.78 ± 0.39 at the first day,but it was 2.84 ± 0.29 before radiotherapy (F =39.78,P ＜0.01).Then the ratio increased slowly,and it was still lower than the baseline at 7 d after radiation (F =39.78,P ＜0.01).The same pattern could be seen in the group of 16 Gy irradiation.In LN229 tumor mice treatment with 8 Gy irradiation,the T/M ratio increased to 2.41 ±0.47 at the first day,and it was 1.58 ±0.29 before radiotherapy (F =34.01,P ＜ 0.05).The ratio decreased steadily to 0.66 ± 0.32 (F =34.01,P＜0.05) at 7 d after radiotherapy.However,in the treatment group with 16 Gy,the T/M ratio decreased gradually and reached 0.44 ± 0.22 at 7 d (F =41.85,P ＜ 0.01).A correlation was found between 18F-FLT T/M ratio and LITK1 (8 Gy:r=0.67,0.73; 16 Gy:r=0.73,0.69; all P＜0.01) in both tumor models.Conclusion 18F-FLT PET imaging may be used as a new assay to predict tumor radiosensitivity,but further investigation is needed before clinical application.

Objective To evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine on the activity of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) in neutrophil granulocytes during one-lung ventilation in the patients undergoing pulmonary lobectomy.Methods Thirty-eight ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 40-64 yr,weighing 50-75 kg,scheduled for elective pulmonary lobectomy,were randomized into 2 groups (n =19 each) using a random number table:control group (group C) and dexmedetomidine group (group D).In group D,dexmedetomidine 1.0 μg/kg was infused intravenously over 15 min before induction of anesthesia,followed by infusion at a rate of 0.5 μg· kg-1 · h-1 until 30 min before the end of operation.The equal volume of normal saline was given in group C.At 5 min after intubation,0,30 and 60 min of one-lung ventilation,0 and 30 min of two-lung ventilation,and 30 min after operation,blood samples were taken from the radial artery for blood gas analysis and for measurement of plasma concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6).The oxygenation index and respiratory index were calculated.The nuclear protein of neutrophil granulocytes was extracted for measurement of NF-κB DNA-binding activity.Results Compared with group C,the respiratory index,plasma concentrations of TNF-α and IL-6 and NF-κB DNA-binding activity were significantly decreased,and no significant difference was found in the oxygenation index in group D.Conclusion Dexmedetomidine can inhibit the activation of NF-κB in neutrophil granulocytes and is helpful in reducing the systemic inflammatory responses during one-lung ventilation in the patients undergoing pulmonary lobectomy.

Objective To evaluate the blood-saving effect of prophylactic use of tranexamic acid in patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation.Methods Sixty ASA physical status Ⅰ-Ⅲ patients of both sexes,aged 18-60 yr,weighing 45-80 kg,scheduled for elective orthotopic liver transplantation,were randomly assigned to one of 2 groups (n =30 each) using a random number table:prophylactic use group (group P) and therapeutic use group (group T).Immediately after induction of anesthesia (T1),at 30 min of anhepatic phase (T2),and at 30 min and 2 h of neohepatic phase (T3,4),central venous blood samples were collected to determine plasma fibrinogen concentration (Fib) and platelet count,and the arterial blood samples were obtained to detect thromboelastography (TEG) parameters.In group T,when lysis after 30 min＞7.5％ and Clot Index ≤ 1.0 according to the results of TEG,which indicating that primary hyperfibrinolysis occurred,tranexamic acid 15-20 mng/kg was injected intravenously.In group P,immediately after beginning of skin incision,immediately after occlusion of portal vein,and immediately after portal vein unclamping,tranexamic acid 1 g was injected intravenously,and a single injection of tranexamic acid 15-20 mg/kg was given when primary hyperfibrinolysis occurred.The intraoperative blood loss,fluid input and output and transfusion of blood components were recorded.The duration of stay in ICU,amount of abdominal drainage during stay in ICU,volume of blood transfused within 72 h after operation,and hepatic artery and portal vein thrombosis within 1 week after operation were recorded.Results Compared with group T,the intraoperative blood loss,volume of succinylated gelatin injection transfused,and requirement for platelet and cryoprecipitate were significantly reduced,Angle at T2 and lysis after 30 min at T2,3 and maximum amplitude at T3 were increased,and no significant change was found in the duration of stay in ICU,postoperative amount of abdominal drainage and volume of blood transfused in group P.No patients developed primary hyperfibrinolysis in group P.No hepatic artery and portal vein thrombosis was detected within 1 week after operation in the two groups.Conclusion Prophylactic use of tranexamic acid can effectively prevent hyperfibrinolysis and reduce intraoperative blood loss without increasing the risk of development of thrombosis,and it provides better blood-saving effect than therapeutic use guided by TEG in patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation.
