RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the radiosensitization effect of low-dose sulfasalazine (SAS) on colorectal cancer (CRC) cells.Methods:Proliferation inhibition effect of SAS on CRC cells was detected by CCK-8 assay, and the concentration of SAS in vitro assays was based on its IC10 value. CRC cells were treated with SAS alone or combined with inhibitors of apoptosis, autophagy, ferroptosis and necroptosis, then cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay. Trypan blue staining, clone formation assay and cell growth curves were used to verify the radiosensitization effect of SAS on CRC cells in vitro. CRC cells were treated with SAS and radiotherapy, then the intracellular contents of lipid peroxidation and the protein levels of GPX4, PTGS2, cleaved PARP and active caspase 3 were evaluated, respectively. Subcutaneous xenograft tumor mouse model was established to further verify the radiosensitization effect of SAS in vivo. Results:High dose (lethal dose) of SAS could induce apoptosis and ferroptosis in CRC cells. Low dose (non-lethal dose) of SAS enhanced the radiosensitivity of CRC cells in vitro, and the radiosensitivity effect of SAS could only be abolished by ferroptosis inhibitor (Fer-1). Low dose of SAS combined with radiotherapy significantly down-regulated the expression of GPX4, whereas increased the intracellular lipid peroxidation levels and the expression of PTGS2. SAS also showed significant radiosensitization effect in subcutaneous xenograft tumor model. Conclusion:Our findings suggest that low-dose SAS could increase the radiosensitivity of CRC cells by promoting ferroptosis.
RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the characteristics and clinical application value of Dual Source CT(DSCT),3.0T MR and DSA in the diagnosis of intracranial aneurysm.Methods The imaging characteristics of DSCT,3.0T MR and DSA in 102 patients of in-tracranial aneurysm were analyzed retrospectively.Results The cerebral DSA were performed in 102 patients,and the sensitivity and accuracy of DSA were 100%.60 patients were detected by DSCT/CTA,and the sensitivity and accuracy of DSCT/CTA were 93.1% and 97.2% respectively.52 patients were detected by 3.0T MR/MRA,and the sensitivity and accuracy of 3.0T MR/MRA were 89.1% and 92.7% respectively.10 patients were detected simultaneously by CT and MR.The diagnostic sensitivity and accu-racy of these three methods had no significant difference(P >0.05).Conclusion The sensitivity and accuracy of DSCT,3.0T MR and DSA in the diagnosis of intracranial aneurysm are high and had no significant difference,each had its characteristic.Reasonable application of the three methods produces higher clinical value.
