Objective To synthesize 18F-AlF-1,4,7-triazacyclononane-l,4,7-triacetic acid (NOTA)-c (CGRRAGGSC),which could specifically bind to the α chain of interleukin (IL)-11 receptor (IL-11 R),and evaluate its targeting potential to IL-11 R-positive tumors.Methods Polypeptide c (CGRRAGGSC) was first coupled with NOTA and then labeled with 18F by AlF labeling method.The radiochemical purity and radiochemical yield of 18F-AlF-NOTA-c(CGRRAGGSC) were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography,and the stability in vitro was evaluated.The tracer biodistribution in tumor-bearing mice (cell line SKOV3) was evaluated by the dynamic imaging with microPET 30 min,1 h,2 h after injection of 18F-AlF-NOTA-c (CGRRAGGSC).The tracer kinetics was performed in normal mice.Pharmacokinetics parameters were calculated using DAS2.0 software.Results The radiochemical purity of 18F-AlF-NOTA-c(CGRRAGGSC) was higher than 95% and the radiochemical yield was (30.0±7.4)%.It could be stably maintained in phosphatebuffered solution and plasma for at least 2 h.MicroPET imaging showed that 18F-AlF-NOTA-c(CGRRAGGSC)had a good affinity to SKOV3 tumor.The tumor/muscle ratios at 30 min,1 h,2 h after the injection of 18F-AlF-NOTA-c(CGRRAGGSC) were 6.26±2.98,7.19±3.63 and 9.05±4.30,respectively.The tracer was cleared rapidly in blood and mainly excreted by the liver and kidneys.The T1/2α and T1/2β were (0.38±0.14) h and (2.64±0.28) h,respectively.Conclusions 18F-AlF-NOTA-c(CGRRAGGSC) is easy to be synthesized and has a good affinity to IL-11R-positive tumors.It will be a potential IL-11R-targeting imaging agent.
Objectives:To explore the clinical effect and possible mechanism of Kuntai capsule and hormone replacement therapy in the treatment of climacteric syndrome.Methods:106 patients were randomly divided into control group and observation group,with 53 cases in each group.Patients in the control group were given hormone replacement therapy,while the patients in observation group were given Kuntai capsule on the basis of hormone replacement therapy,both for 12 weeks of treatment.The curative effect,levels of hormone,and the living quality with Kupperman scores were evaluated.Results:The efficiency in observation group was 94.3%,which was higher than that of control group (79.2%),with significant difference (P <0.05).The levels of FSH and LH in observation group were lower than these in control group,with significant difference (P < 0.05).The level of E2 in observation group were higher than that in control group after treatment (P < 0.05).The Kupperman score in observation group was lower than that in control group,with significant difference (P < 0.05).Conclusion:Treating climacteric syndrome with Kuntai capsule and hormone replacement therapy is good to improve the patients' clinical symptoms,worthy of clinical promotion.The mechanism may be associated with stimulating the ovarian reserve,improving ovarian function and regulating the levels of hormone.
Objective To investigate the expression of IL-11 and IL-11RA in epithelial ovarian cancers (EOCs).Methods The protein expression of IL-11 and IL-11RA in 108 cases of EOCs were assessed by immunohistochemistry.Results The positive rates of IL-11 in ovarian endometrioid carcinoma, ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma, ovary mucinous cystadenocarcinoma and ovarian clear cell carcinoma were 78.79%, 74.29%, 50.00% and 40.63%, respectively.Compared with benign ovarian neoplasm, the expression of IL-11 was significantly increased in EOCs (P<0.05).The expression of IL-11 showed no statistical correlation with age in EOCs (P>0.05).The expression of IL-11 was significantly correlated with clinical stage of EOCs (P<0.05).The expression of IL-11 was significantly increased in EOCs with peritoneal metastasis (P<0.05).IL-11RA was highly expressed in associated benign ovarian neoplasm and EOCs.Conclusion The expression of IL-11 is significantly correlated with EOCs.The expression of IL-11RA plays a synergistic role in EOCs.The high expression of IL-11 is close relevant to peritoneal metastasis in EOCs, suggesting a potential target for the treatment of ovarian cancers.
Objective To explore the expressions of high mobility group box B1 (HMGB1),interleukin-6 (IL-6),and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) in peripheral blood of patients with severe preeclampsia.Methods ELISA was used to detect the expressions of HMGB1,IL-6,and TGF-β1 in serum of 57 patients with severe preeclampsia and 21 normal late pregnant women (control group).Results Compared with control group,the expressions of HMGB1,IL-6,and TGF-β1 in severe preeclampsia group increased,there were statistically significant differences (P<0.05).HMGB1 expression in patients with early-onset severe preeclampsia was higher than that in patients with late-onset severe preeclampsia,but there was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05).IL-6 expression in patients with early-onset severe preeclampsia was higher than that in patients with late-onset severe preeclampsia,TGF-β1 expression in patients with early-onset severe preeclampsia was lower than that in patients with late-onset severe preeclampsia,there were statistically significant differences (P<0.05).Correlation analysis showed that HMGB1 was positively correlated with IL-6,while HMGB1 was negatively correlated with TGF-β1.Conclusion HMGB1 upregulation may be involved in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia,assessment of cytokines can effectively monitor severe preeclampsia.
While angiotensin II (ang II) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of cardiac cachexia (CC), the molecules that mediate ang II's wasting effect have not been identified. It is known TNF-α level is increased in patients with CC, and TNF-α release is triggered by ang II. We therefore hypothesized that ang II induced muscle wasting is mediated by TNF-α. Ang II infusion led to skeletal muscle wasting in wild type (WT) but not in TNF alpha type 1 receptor knockout (TNFR1KO) mice, suggesting that ang II induced muscle loss is mediated by TNF-α through its type 1 receptor. Microarray analysis identified cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (Ch25h) as the down stream target of TNF-α. Intraperitoneal injection of 25-hydroxycholesterol (25-OHC), the product of Ch25h, resulted in muscle loss in C57BL/6 mice, accompanied by increased expression of atrogin-1, MuRF1 and suppression of IGF-1/Akt signaling pathway. The identification of 25-OHC as an inducer of muscle wasting has implications for the development of specific treatment strategies in preventing muscle loss.
