Objective:To investigate whether miR-9 plays a role in regulating glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) expression, affecting Wnt/β-catenin pathway activity and the patho-genesis of Osteo-arthritis (OA).Methods:The cartilage tissue of OA patients and normal cartilage tissue after traumatic amputation were collected, and the expressions of miR-9 and GSK-3β were compared. The double luciferase gene reporting test verified whether there was a targeted regulatory relationship between miR-9 and GSK-3β. OA rat model was established and compared with sham group, enzyme-linked immuno sorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect hydroxyproline (Hyp) content in joint fluid.A kit was used to detect caspase-3 activity, and miR-9 and GSK-3β expression differences were detected in cartilage tissue. The OA model rats were divided into 3 groups: the sham group, the OA+ antagomiR-NC group, the OA + antagomiR-9 group. ELISA was used to detect Hyp content in joint fluid, kit was used to detect caspase-3 activity, and flow cytometry was used to detect cell cartilage tissue. Apoptosis, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blot were used to detect the expression of miR-9, GSK-3β, β-catenin and COL2A1. The comparison of mea-surement data between the two groups was conducted by t-test. The comparison of measurement data between multiple groups was conducted by one-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) analysis of variance, and then Bon-ferroni method was used for comparison between the two groups. P<0.05 was considered as statistically sign-ificant. Results:The miR-9 expression of cartilage tissue were (1.09±0.25) in the control group, and (2.86±0.25) in the OA group ( t=24.30, P<0.01). The GSK-3 β mRNA expression of cartilage tissue was (0.99±0.11) in the control group, and (0.53±0.10) in the OA group ( t=15.40, P<0.01). There was a targeted regulatory relationship between miR-9 and GSK-3β. The miR-9 expression of cartilage tissue was (1.00±0.21) in the sham group, and (2.61±0.36) in the OA group (t=9.462, P<0.01). The GSK-3 β mRNA expression of cartilage tissue was (1.00±0.18) in the sham group, and (0.52±0.09) in the OA group ( t=5.842, P <0.01). The Hyp content of joint fluid was (10±3) ng/ml in the sham group, and (50±8) ng/ml in the OA group ( t=11.015, P<0.01). The Caspase-3 activity of cartilage tissue was (1.00±0.19) in the sham group, and (2.43±0.36) in the OA group ( t=8.605, P<0.01). The miR-9 expression of cartilage tissue was (2.86±0.31) in the OA+antagomir NC group, and (1.67±0.19) in the OA + antagomir-9 group ( F=105.2, P<0.01). The GSK-3β mRNA expression of cartilage tissue was (0.41±0.09) in the OA antagomir NC group, and (0.81±0.09) in the OA + antagomir-9 group ( F=49.32, P<0.01). The Hyp content of joint fluid was (52.3±6.8) ng/ml in the OA + antagomir NC group, and (30.3±3.4) ng/ml in the OA + antagomir-9 group ( F=119.7, P<0.01). The caspase-3 activity of cartilage tissue was (2.22±0.23) in the OA + antagomir NC group, and (1.43±0.14) in the OA+ antagomir NC group ( F=72.55, P<0.01). Compared with OA + antagomir NC group, the expression of β-Catenin protein in the OA + miran-tagomir-9 group wasdecreased, the expression of GSK-3 β and COL2A1 protein wasincreased, and cell apo-ptosis wasdecreased. Conclusion:The increased expression of miR-9 plays a role in reducing the expression of GSK-3β, enhancing the activity of Wnt/β-catenin pathway, promoting the degradation, destruction of cartilage matrix and the pathogenesis of OA. Inhibition of miR-9 expression can reduce the protective effect of OA.

Background and purpose: One of the main mechanism of chemotherapy is inducing tuomr apoptosis. Molecular imaging can allow noninvasively and dynamically monitor tumor apoptosis in vivo, and help to drug screening and therapeutic evaluation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of 18F-SFB-Annexin B1 in detecting apoptosis at an early phase after chemotheraphy. Methods:Annexin B1 was labeled with 18F using SFB as a chelating agent. Tissue distribution of 18F-SFB-Annexin B1 was studied in healthy mice by the dissection method. W256 tumor-bearing rats were injected with 18F-SFB-Annexin B1 intravenously at 24 h after the treatment of cyclophosphamide (CTX 200 mg/kg) or saline. Then imaging was acquired at 1, 2, 3, and 4 h postinjection on a PET/CT, and the tumor-to-muscle ratio of SUVmax (T/M) and the AI from TUNEL testing were compared. Results: 18F-SFB-Annexin B1 had a radiochemical pruity (RCP)>95%. Biodistribution of this probe showed a predominant uptake in the kidney, then was liver, spleen, and myocardium, rapid clearance from blood and urinary was observed. The radios of T/M were 4.38±0.56, 6.75±1.16, 6.44±1.12, 4.81±0.17, respectively at 1, 2, 3, 4 h post injection of the chemotherapy group, much higher than that of the saline group (2.35±0.14, 2.99±0.55, 3.04±0.41, 2.33±0.47, respectively). The differences between the two groups were significant (F=23.790, 16.913, 14.046, 77.517, respectively, all P<0.05). TUNEL staining revealed that chemotherapy treatment significantly increased the percentage of apoptosis cells with an AI of (21.00±0.04)%in the chemotherapy group, higher than that in the saline group (8.58±0.01)%, the difference was significant (F=21.539, P<0.05). The radios of T/M were significantly correlated with the values of AI (r=0.91, P<0.05). Conclusion: 18F-SFB-Annexin B1 can be used to apoptosis imaging and early therapeutic evaluation in vivo because it can reflect apoptosis at an early stage after chemotheraphy.

Background and purpose:Integrinαvβ3 receptor plays an important role in promoting, sustaining and regulating the angiogenesis. It is overexpressed on neovascular endothelial cells and tumor cells. RGD peptide specifically binds to integrinαvβ3, which could evaluate growth status and invasiveness of tumor. This study aimed to investigate the biodistribution in healthy KM mice and micro PET/CT imaging in U87MG tumor-bearing mice of 18F-E[c(RGDfK)2]. Methods: 18F-E[c(RGDfK)2] was produced using an automated synthesis module via a simple one-step 18F-labeling strategy of the precursor 4-NO2-3-TFMBz-E[c(RGDfK)2]. The percentage activity of injection dose per gram of tissue (%ID/g) was calculated at 0.5, 1, 2, 4 h post injection of the probe. Micro PET/CT images of U87MG tumor-bearing nude mice with or without 18F-E[c(RGDfK)2] blocking were acquired at each time point. Results: The labeling efficiency and radiochemical purity of 18F-E[c(RGDfK)2] were 10% and 98%, respectively. 18F-E[c(RGDfK)2] was excreted via renal route, with a high blood clearance. The other organs had background-level activity accumulation. At 1 h, the%ID/g of kidney, liver, intestine, muscle and blood was (1.02±0.16)%ID/g,(0.24±0.06)%ID/g, (0.35±0.03)%ID/g, (0.13±0.03)%ID/g and (0.11±0.03)%ID/g 18F-E[c(RGDfK)2] had initial high tumor uptake [(5.2±0.56)%ID/g] and good tumor-to-background contrast (5.36) at 1 h post injection. Tumor uptake for blocking group was lower than those without blocking, and T/M reduced to 1.57. Conclusion: 18F-E[c(RGDfK)2] appears a promising PET molecular imaging probe targeting integrin αvβ3, with high tumor uptake. It could be suitable for prognosis evaluation of integrin-positive tumor, selection of vascular targeting therapy and therapy effect monitoring.

Objective: To examine the associations of fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19), its co-receptor KLB gene and its receptor FGFR4 with susceptibility to sarcopenia, so as to provide insights into elucidation of sarcopenia pathogenesis and formulation of precision interventions for sarcopenia. Methods: A case-control study was conducted. Patients with sarcopenia at ages of 60 years and older included in the Zhejiang Provincial Elderly Health Surveillance Cohorts were selected as the sarcopenia group, and normal residents at ages of 60 years and older were served as controls. Subjects' demographics were collected using questionnaire surveys, and the height, body weight, appendicular skeletal muscle mass and grip strength were measured. Genomic DNA was extracted from blood samples for multiplex PCR targeted capture. The associations between the KLB gene single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and susceptibility to sarcopenia were evaluated using multivariable logistic regression models. Results: There were 200 cases in the sarcopenia group, including 91 men and 109 women, and 180 cases in the control group, including 70 men and 110 women. All SNPs satisfied the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, and the minor allele frequencies were all > 0.05. There were no significant differences in the distribution of SNPs between the sarcopenia and control groups (all P>0.05). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the SNP rs2687968 locus in the KLB gene was significantly associated with the susceptibility to sarcopenia among the elderly men (superdominant model), and individuals carrying the AC allele had a 2.332-fold higher risk of sarcopenia than those carrying the AA/CC allele (95%CI: 1.882-3.313). Conclusions KLB gene may correlate with the susceptibility to sarcopenia among the elderly men.
