Cerebrospinal fluid surrounds and supports the central nervous system, including the ventricles and subarachnoid spaces. Cerebrospinal fluid should be an important source of biomarkers for central nervous system diseases because it is in direct contact with the central nervous system. Many studies are reported on cerebrospinal fluid proteomics, highlighting many recent progresses. Here, we review recent advances in proteomics technology and clinical application of cerebrospinal fluid.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of PEG-rhG-CSF therapy in the primary and secondary prevention of chemo-therapy-induced neutropenia . Methods: This single-center, one-arm, and open-label clinical study involved 217 patients with non-my-eloid malignant tumors. These patients included 18 gynecologic oncology (3 endometrial and 15 ovarian cancer), 50 breast cancer, 30 bone tumor, and 119 lymphoma patients who underwent a total of 774 cycles of chemotherapy, comprising 146 primary and 71 sec-ondary prevention patients. The patients ≥45 kg and those <45 kg received a single subcutaneous injection of 6 mg and 3 mg PEG-rhG-CSF, respectively, 24-48 h after the chemotherapy was completed. All patients received only one dose of PEG-rhG-CSF admin-istration per chemotherapy cycle. Results: The overall incidence of febrile neutropenia (FN) was found to be 5.7%, with rates of 4.9% and 7.2% in the primary and secondary prevention groups, respectively. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses re-vealed that the longer PEG-rhG-CSF was sustained in the treatment cycle, the lower the incidence of FN was. The incidence of FN was significantly lower in the second cycle of the treatment than in the first in both the primary and secondary prevention groups (cycle 1 vs. cycle 2: 11.6% vs. 4.4%, respectively, P=0.039, in the primary group; 16.9% vs. 5.6%, respectively, P=0.034, in the secondary group). The overall incidence of gradeⅣneutropenia was 10.3% (80/774), with rates of 6.7% (34/510) and 17.4% (46/264) in the primary and secondary prevention groups, respectively (P<0.001). The incidence of gradeⅣneutropenia was significantly lower in the second cy-cle of the treatment than in the first (cycle 1 vs. cycle 2: 17.1% vs. 5.3%, respectively, P=0.004, in the primary group; 46.5% vs. 11.3%, respectively, P<0.001, in the secondary group). The treatment-induced toxicity mainly involved bone pain, with 3.7% (8/217) and 1.8% (4/217) incidence rates for grade 1-2 and 3-4 bone pain, respectively. Conclusions: PEG-rhG-CSF administration can effectively reduce the incidence of FN (5.7%) when prophylactically applied to patients with non-myeloid malignant tumors. Primary prevention can sig- nificantly reduce the risk of grade IV neutropenia in all chemotherapy cycles relative to the secondary prevention.

Objective: To explore the role of targeted ultrasound contrast agent in the evaluation of angiogenesis in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) in nude mice by constructing platelet derived growth factor receptor α (PDGFRα)-targeted ultrasound contrast agents, and to explore the effect of platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) on angiogenesis in PTC. Methods: PDGFRα-targeted ultrasound contrast agents were constructed through biotin-avidin linkage, and blank micro-bubbles were served as control group. After the siRNA-PDGF BCPAP cell line was established, well prepared BCPAP cells or siRNA-PDGF-BCPAP cells were injected subcutaneously into the back of male BABL/C nude mice. The growth of the tumors was observed closely. All tumors of the normal group and the siRNA-PDGF group were examined by PDGFRα-targeted ultrasound contrast agents or blank micro-bubbles, and the dynamic images were analyzed quantitatively by QontraXt software.All mice were sacrificed after ultrasonography. Microvessels density (MVD) in the tumors was counted by CD31 staining and the expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and PDGF were detected by Western Blot. Results: PTCs in nude mice were enhanced well by PDGFRα-targeted ultrasound contrast agent or blank micro-bubbles. The peak of tumors in siRNA-PDGF group was significantly lower than that in the normal group [(43.085±13.244)% vs (57.428±10.952)%, P=0.004]; MVD of the siRNA-PDGF group was significantly less than that of the normal group [(23.200±6.017)strips/view vs (35.000±8.456)strips/view, P=0.012]. The protein expression of PDGF and VEGF in siRNA-PDGF group were significantly lower than those in the normal group, respectively (0.142±0.058 vs 0.269±0.102, P=0.002; 0.096±0.036 vs 0.158±0.072, P=0.016). Conclusions PDGF plays an important role in angiogenesis of PTC, it maybe a new ultrasound molecular imaging method for monitoring tumor angiogenesis.

Objective To study the effect of gastrodin on arterial blood gas and brain injury of rats under simulated high altitude hypoxia environment. Methods A total of 60 adult healthy male Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal (N) group, hypoxia model (M) group, rhodiola crenulata (RC) group, low dose of gastrodin (GAS-L) group, medium dose of gastrodin (GAS-M) group and high dose of gastrodin (GAS-H) group (10 for each group). The intragastric administration on rats was continued for 7 days timely in each day. Under simulated 8000m altitude using low pressure oxygen cabin, the arterial blood gas of each group were tested, pathological changes of brain tissues were observed and related indexes of brain were detected after 12h hypoxia. Results Comparing with group N, the blood oxygen partial pressure (PO2), value of blood oxygen saturation (SO2), oxygenation index (PO2/FIO2), Na+ concentration (Na+), actual bicarbonate radical (HCO3–) significantly decreased (P<0.01), lactic acid (Lac), hemoglobin concentration (Hb) significantly increased (P<0.01) and pathological damage was inflicted in group M; and contents of malondialdehyde (MDA), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in brain tissue significantly increased (P<0.01), content of glutathione(GSH) and activity of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in brain tissue significantly decreased (P<0.01) in group M. Compared with group M, PO2, SO2 and PO2/FIO2 significantly increased (P<0.01, P<0.05) in group GAS-L; Na+ and HCO3– significantly increased (P<0.01, P<0.05) in three dose groups of GAS; Lac significantly decreased (P<0.01, P<0.05) in group GAS-L and GAS-H. Hb significantly increased (P<0.01) in group GAS-H, a rising trend appeared in group GAS-L but with no statistical significance. Damages of brain tissue were alleviated in group RC and three dose groups of GAS comparing with group M. Compared with group M, MDA significantly decreased (P<0.01) in three dose groups of GAS; there was a decreasing trend of H2O2 but with no statistical significance in three dose groups of GAS; GSH and GSH-Px significantly increased (P<0.01, P<0.05) in three dose groups of GAS. However, three groups of GAS has no dose dependent. Conclusion There was an protective effect of gastrodin on arterial blood gas and brain injury of rats under simulated high altitude hypoxia environment.

Objective To explore the adeno-associated virus (AAV)gene transduction and cellular endocytosis mediated by ultrasound combined with microbubbles in two types of cells.Methods HeLa and NIH/3T3 cells were infected by rAAV2-EGFP at a concentration gradient to get the optimal concentrations for enhancement.At these concentrations,HeLa and NIH/3T3 cells were infected by rAAV2-EGFP mediated by ultrasound combined with microbubbles.The gene transduction efficiency were observed and measured by fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry at 48 h after treatment.The cell viability was tested by CCK-8.The number and distribution of cellular clathrin-coated endocytic pits were observed by confocal fluorescence microscopy and transmission electron microscopy on 45 min after treatment.Results The optimal concentrations for HeLa and NIH/3T3 cells were 2000 v.g./cell and 10000 v.g./cell.Ultrasound combined with microbubbles significantly enhanced the transduction efficiency of rAAV2-EGFP (P <0.01) without significant cell viability decrease (P > 0.05 ).Confocal fluorescence microscopy and transmission electron microscopy demonstrated that clathrin-coated endocytic pits were more obviously increased in ultrasound combined with microbubbles mediated AAV transduction group than AAV transduction group. Conclusions Ultrasound combined with microbubbles can efficiently enhance the gene transduction of AAV,whose cellular transportation depends on cellular endocytosis,in two types of cells.Stimulating cellular endocytosis might be one of the mechanisms of enhanced cellular transportation of AAV mediated by ultrasound combined with microbubbles.
