Objective:To prepare 89Zr-labeled anti-human podoplanin (PDPN) monoclonal antibody SZ168 and evaluate its feasibility for melanoma immunoPET imaging. Methods:89Zr-desferrioxamine (DFO)-SZ168 was prepared by conjugating p-isothiocyanatobenzyl (SCN-Bn)-DFO with SZ168 and chelating with 89Zr. Quality control analyses were conducted, including labeling rate, radiochemical purity, and in vitro stability. Melanoma mouse models were created, with experimental group ( n=3) and control group ( n=3) receiving tail vein injections of 89Zr-DFO-SZ168 and 89Zr-DFO-immunoglobulin (Ig)G solutions (3.7MBq) respectively. The experimental group underwent microPET/CT imaging at 12, 24, 48 and 72h post-injection, while the control group underwent imaging at 48h post-injection. Tumor and organ radioactivity uptake was analyzed using the ROI method. Mice were sacrificed at 7d post-injection to assess the ex vivo biodistribution of 89Zr-DFO-SZ168 and 89Zr-DFO-IgG. Independent-sample t test was used to analyze the data. Results:The pH value of the 89Zr-DFO-SZ168 solution was approximately 7.0, with a labeling rate >60%, radiochemical purity >95% after PD10 column purification, and good stability after 72h in vitro. Series microPET/CT imagings showed significant tumor visualization in tumor-bearing mice. Radioactivity uptake in tumors peaked at 48h post-injection, while the tumor was not clearly detected by 89Zr-DFO-IgG microPET/CT imaging. Ex vivo biodistribution indicated that 89Zr-DFO-SZ168 mainly accumulated in tumors, liver, and bones, with tumor uptake significantly higher than that of 89Zr-DFO-IgG ((29.36±7.29) percentage activity of injection dose per gram of tissue (%ID/g) vs (8.78±1.63) %ID/g; t=4.77, P=0.009). Immunohistochemistry of tumor specimens showed high expression of PDPN in tumor tissues. Conclusions:The probe 89Zr-DFO-SZ168 is successfully prepared, showing potential for specific molecular imaging diagnosis of melanoma. This lays a basis for developing PDPN molecular target-based immuno-PET diagnosis and integrated diagnosis and treatment for melanoma.

Objective To investigate the correlation between the expression of serum microRNA-21-5p(miR-21-5p),microRNA-1224-5p(miR-1224-5p),and microRNA-181a-5p(miR-181a-5p)with postoperative delayed healing in patients with femoral neck fracture(FNF).Methods From October 2021 to April 2024,371 patients with FNF admitted to our hospital were included as subjects.The patients were assigned into a study group(delayed healing,68 cases)and a control group(normal healing,303 cases)based on whether the fracture ends healed 4 months after surgery.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(qRT-PCR)was applied to detect the expression levels of serum miR-21-5p,miR-1224-5p,and miR-181a-5p.Multivariate Logistic regression was applied to analyze the influencing factors of postoperative healing delay in FNF patients.ROC curve was applied to analyze the predictive value of serum miR-21-5p,miR-1224-5p,and miR-181a-5p for postoperative healing delay in FNF patients.Results The levels of serum miR-21-5p,miR-1224-5p,and miR-181a-5p in the study group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic analysis showed that age ≥ 60 years old,diabetes,and smoking were risk factors for postoperative delayed healing in FNF patients(P<0.05),and miR-21-5p,miR-1224-5p and miR-181a-5p were protective factors for postoperative delayed healing in FNF patients(P<0.05).ROC curve showed that the AUC values of miR-21-5p,miR-1224-5p,and miR-181a-5p for predicting postoperative healing delay in FNF patients were 0.845,0.809,and 0.797,respectively.When the three were combined for prediction,the AUC increased to 0.933.The combined detection effect of the three indicators was better than that of any individual indicator(Zcombination vs.miR-21-5p=3.444,Zcombination vs.miR-1224-5p=4.401,Zcombination vs.miR-181a-5p=4.279,P<0.05).Conclusion The levels of serum miR-21-5p,miR-1224-5p,and miR-181a-5p are reduced in FNF patients with postoperative delayed healing.The combined detection of the three may have a certain predictive value for postoperative delayed healing in FNF patients.

Cell mechanics is essential to cell development and function,and its dynamics evolution reflects the physiological state of cells.Here,we investigate the dynamical mechanical properties of single cells under various drug conditions,and present two mathematical approaches to quantitatively character-izing the cell physiological state.It is demonstrated that the cellular mechanical properties upon the drug action increase over time and tend to saturate,and can be mathematically characterized by a linear time-invariant dynamical model.It is shown that the transition matrices of dynamical cell systems signifi-cantly improve the classification accuracies of the cells under different drug actions.Furthermore,it is revealed that there exists a positive linear correlation between the cytoskeleton density and the cellular mechanical properties,and the physiological state of a cell in terms of its cytoskeleton density can be predicted from its mechanical properties by a linear regression model.This study builds a relationship between the cellular mechanical properties and the cellular physiological state,adding information for evaluating drug efficacy.

Objective:To introduce the application of 3D printing technology in standardized residency training of percutaneous precise biopsy.Methods:Twenty-two residents were randomly divided into innovative teaching group and traditional teaching group, with 11 ones in each group. Residents in both groups received standardized training of percutaneous biopsy procedure. Innovative teaching group was given 3D printing template combined with guided operation, while traditional teaching group used bare hand operation. The time spent in biopsy, the times of needle adjustment, the frequency of CT scanning during operation, the positive rate of material sampling and the incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.Results:During the percutaneous lung biopsy, two groups of physicians performed the procedure. There was no significant difference between the two groups in operation time [(22.34±3.12) vs. (23.56±4.21)] and the positive rate of sampling (72.73% vs. 90.91%) ( P> 0.05), but there were significant differences in the times of adjusting biopsy needle during operation [(2.11±0.67) vs. (1.02±0.93)], the frequency of intraoperative CT scanning [(4.35±0.76) vs. (3.12±0.84)] and the incidence of complications (54.55% vs. 27.27%) ( P< 0.05). In percutaneous peritoneal organ biopsy, there was no significant difference among the two groups in the operation time [(16.25±2.89) vs. (15.12±2.59)], the number of CT scans [(3.45±0.79) vs. (2.98±0.23)] and the positive rate (78.57% vs. 88.24%) ( P> 0.05), but there were significant differences in times of intraoperative biopsy needle adjustments [(2.43±0.43) vs. (1.84±0.89)] and the incidence of complications (35.71% vs. 5.88%) ( P< 0.05). Conclusion:The application of 3D printing technology combined with the teaching of three-dimensional guided stent can make percutaneous biopsy technique stylized and standardized. It is of great significance to standardize the operation for improving the quality of medical treatment, and it is worth popularizing in clinical teaching.
