Objective:To prepare the nanodrug paclitaxel dimer(PTX2)-loaded nanoparticles(NPs)using the block copolymer 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-polyethylene glycol 2000,(DSPE-PEG2000),and to explore the killing effect of PTX2 NPs on the human lung cancer A549 cells and its influence on apop to tis.Methods:The PTX2 NPs were prepared using nanoprecipitation method.Dynamic light scattering(DLS)was employed to determine the particle size distribution,and transmission electron microscope(TEM)was used to observe the ultrastructure of the nanoparticles.After treatment of 0 and 10 mmol·L-1 dithiothreitol(DTT),dialysis method was used to evaluate the in vitro drug release profile of PTX2 NPs.The cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)method was used to assess the survival rates of the A549 cells after treated with PTX2 and PTX2 NPs with different concentrations(0.000 1,0.001 0,0.010 0,0.100 0,and 1.000 0 μmol·L-1).The A549 cells were divided into control group,PTX2 group,and PTX2 NPs group.Live/dead staining method was used to detect the survival of the A549 cells in various groups,and flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptotic rates of the A549 cells in various groups.Results:The mean hydrodynamic diameter of PTX2 NPs was determined to be 144.7nmbyDLS.TheTEM imaging confirmed uniform spherical morphology of PTX2 NPs.In a reductive environment,the PTX2 NPs exhibited continuous drug release with total paclitaxel(PTX)release of 84％within 72 h.The results of CCK-8 method showed that both PTX2 and PTX2 NPs inhibited the proliferation of A549 cells in a dose-dependent manner.When the concentrations of PTX＜0.01 μmol·L-1,compared with PTX2 group,the survival rates of A549 cells in PTX2 NPs group were significantly decreased(P＜0.01 or P＜0.001).The live/dead staining results showed that compared with PTX2 group,the number of red fluorescence-labeled dead cells in PTX2 NPs group was increased.The flow cytometry results demonstrated that compared with control group and PTX2 group,the apoptotic rates of the A549 cells in PTX2 NPs group were significantly increased(P＜0.05 orP＜0.01).Conclusion:The PTX2-loaded nanoparticles PTX2 NPs are successfully prepared which exhibits responsive drug release and demonstrates a more significant killing effect on the human lung cancer A549 cells compared to PTX2.

Objective:To evaluate the short- and medium-term clinical efficacy of TIPS approach combined with AngioJet thrombus aspiration technology treatment in acute portal vein thrombosis.Methods:63 cases with acute portal vein thrombosis treated in our center from May 2017 to July 2019 were studied retrospectively, including 49 males and 14 females, aged 35-61 (46 ± 5) years. TIPS approach (with/without) combined with Angiojet thrombus aspiration and gastroesophageal varices embolization was performed simultaneously according to the patient's condition. Regular follow-up for 3-33 (22 ± 3) months after surgery was used to observe the curative effect.Results:The technical success rate was 100%. Portal vein and superior mesenteric vein blood flow were returned to normal after the operation. Two cases of biliary tract injury were untreated. Simultaneously, two cases of intrahepatic arteriovenous fistula were treated with superselective arterial embolization. During the follow-up period, 47 cases (74.61%) had complete portal vein recanalization, 13 cases (20.63%) had partial recanalization, 3 cases (4.76%) had complete portal cavernoma, 7 cases (11.11%) had symptomatic hepatic encephalopathy, 1 case had received artificial liver treatment (1.59%), 1 case had peptic ulcer (11.11%), 6 cases (9.52%) had lost to follow-up, and there was no portal hypertension-related bleeding or death.Conclusion:TIPS approach combined with AngioJet thrombus aspiration technology is safe, effective and feasible in the treatment of acute portal vein thrombosis, and the short- and medium-term clinical effects are satisfactory.

Objective: To compare the changes of spontaneous brain activity in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody (MOG-Ab) positive and Aquaporin 4 antibody (AQP4-Ab) positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) by using resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Methods: A case control study was designed.A total of 11 NMOSD patients with positive MOG-Ab and 21 NMOSD patients with positive AQP4-Ab were enrolled from October 2006 to May 2017 in PLA General Hospital.Thirty-four healthy controls closely matched in age, sex and education were recruited and underwent resting-state fMRI scans.The amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF) was extracted to investigate the spontaneous brain activity.This study was approved by Ethics Committee of PLA General Hospital (S2019-111-01). All subjects enrolled signed informed consent. Results: Two patients in the MOG-Ab positive group had seizure history, and no seizure history was observed in AQP4-Ab positive group and healthy control group.Compared with healthy control group, all patients in MOG-Ab positive group and AQP4-Ab positive group had significantly increased ALFF values of prefrontal gyrus.The ALFF values of bilateral anterior central gyrus and bilateral posterior central gyrus in AQP4-Ab positive group were 1.89±0.56 and 2.10±0.69, respectively, which were lower than 3.32±1.15 and 3.61±1.23 in MOG-Ab positive group, the differences were statistically significant (both at P<0.001, AlphaSim correction). Conclusions Resting-state fMRI could provide new evidence of possibly multi-focal disease mechanisms.Hyperactivity in prefrontal cortex, motor cortex and somatosensory cortex might reflect differences in pathological processes between MOG-Ab positive and AQP4-Ab positive NMOSD patients.
