Abstract
PURPOSE Brachytherapy (radioactive seed insertion) has emerged as one of the most effective treatment options for patients with prostate cancer, with the added benefit of a convenient outpatient procedure. The main limitation in contemporary brachytherapy is faulty seed placement, predominantly due to the presence of intra-operative edema (tissue expansion). Though currently not available, the capability to intra-operatively monitor the seed distribution, can make a significant improvement in cancer control. We present such a system here. METHODS Intra-operative measurement of edema in prostate brachytherapy requires localization of inserted radioactive seeds relative to the prostate. Seeds were reconstructed using a typical non-isocentric C-arm, and exported to a commercial brachytherapy treatment planning system. Technical obstacles for 3D reconstruction on a non-isocentric C-arm include pose-dependent C-arm calibration; distortion correction; pose estimation of C-arm images; seed reconstruction; and C-arm to TRUS registration. RESULTS In precision-machined hard phantoms with 40-100 seeds and soft tissue phantoms with 45-87 seeds, we correctly reconstructed the seed implant shape with an average 3D precision of 0.35 mm and 0.24 mm, respectively. In a DoD Phase-1 clinical trial on six patients with 48-82 planned seeds, we achieved intra-operative monitoring of seed distribution and dosimetry, correcting for dose inhomogeneities by inserting an average of over four additional seeds in the six enrolled patients (minimum 1; maximum 9). Additionally, in each patient, the system automatically detected intra-operative seed migration induced due to edema (mean 3.84 mm, STD 2.13 mm, Max 16.19 mm). CONCLUSIONS The proposed system is the first of a kind that makes intra-operative detection of edema (and subsequent re-optimization) possible on any typical non-isocentric C-arm, at negligible additional cost to the existing clinical installation. It achieves a significantly more homogeneous seed distribution, and has the potential to affect a paradigm shift in clinical practice. Large scale studies and commercialization are currently underway.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS Amylin, a secretory protein mainly produced by pancreatic beta cells, is elevated in the circulation of patients with diseases related to acute and chronic inflammation, including acute pancreatitis, pancreas graft rejection, obesity and insulin resistance. TNF-α is involved in these disorders. We investigated the effect of TNF-α on amylin levels and the underlying mechanisms, using murine pancreatic beta cell line MIN6 and pancreatic islets. METHODS Amylin, proinsulin and prohormone convertase 1/3, 2 (Pc1/3, Pc2 [also known as Pcsk1/3 and Pcsk2, respectively]) mRNA levels, and amylin promoter and nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) activation were examined by real-time PCR and luciferase reporter assay, respectively. Amylin protein level and mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphorylation were detected by western blot. Activator protein 1 (AP1) activation was examined by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). RESULTS TNF-α acutely induced amylin expression at the transcriptional level and increased proamylin and the intermediate form of amylin in MIN6 cells and islets. However, it had no effect on proinsulin, Pc1/3 and Pc2 expression. Studies with (1) MIN6 cells treated with inhibitors of MEK1/2, c-Jun-N-terminal kinase (JNK) or protein kinase Cζ (PKC(ζ)), (2) MIN6 cells expressing a c-Jun-dominant negative construct and (3) islets from Fos knockout mice demonstrated that TNF-α induced amylin expression through the PKC(ζ)-extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)/JNK pathways. EMSA showed that (PKC(ζ)), JNK and ERK1/2 were involved in TNF-α-induced AP1 activation, suggesting that TNF-α induces murine amylin expression through the (PKC(ζ)) - ERK1/2 - AP and PKC(ζ) - JNK - AP1 pathways. Further studies showed that TNF-α also induced murine amylin expression through the phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase-NF-κB signalling pathway and enhanced human amylin promoter activation through NF-κB and AP1. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION TNF-α acutely induces amylin gene expression in beta cells through multiple signalling pathways, possibly contributing to amylin elevation in acute inflammation-related pancreatic disorders.

Efficacy and safety of losartan in treatment of hyperuricemia and posttransplantation erythrocytosis: results of a prospective, open, randomized, case-control study. Transplant Proc 2010; 41:3736-42. [PMID: 19917377 DOI: 10.1016/j.transproceed.2009.06.225] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2008] [Revised: 04/28/2009] [Accepted: 06/01/2009] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyperuricemia and posttransplantation erythrocytosis (PTE) are frequent complications after kidney transplantation and are important risk factors for cardiovascular events. Losartan decreases serum uric acid and hemoglobin (Hb) concentrations and may be a useful agent for treatment of hyperuricemia and PTE. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the influence of losartan on serum creatinine (SCr), serum uric acid, and hemoglobin (Hb) concentrations in patients after kidney transplantation and to evaluate the safety profile of losartan in these patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS Sixty-six Han Chinese patients (43 men and 23 women; mean [SD] age, 40.45 [11.50] years) were enrolled in the study. All patients had undergone a first cadaveric donor kidney transplantation at least 3 months previously and had stable graft function with SCr concentration less than 176.8 micromol/L and Hb concentration greater than 110 g/L. The patients were divided into 2 groups (losartan group, n = 34; and control group, n = 32) according to the odevity of patient identification number. Patients in the losartan group received losartan, 50 mg/d; patients in the control group did not receive losartan. Each patient was followed up for 6 months. RESULTS Nine patients in the losartan group and 5 patients in the control group dropped out because of acute renal insufficiency, anemia, acute rejection, or poor compliance. The serum uric acid concentration in the losartan group continuously decreased at months 1, 2, 3, and 6 (P = .12, P = .01, P = .04, and P = .005 compared with baseline, and P = .02, P = .003, P = .02, and P = .006 compared with control), especially in the patients with hyperuricemia (P = .02, P < .001, P = .003, and P < .001 compared with baseline, and P = .02, P = .002, P = .02, and P = .002 compared with control). The Hb level in the losartan group decreased significantly at months 1, 2, 3, and 6 (P = .003, P < .001, P = .004, and P = 0.02 compared with baseline, and P = .001, P < .001, P = .001, and P = .005 compared with control), especially in patients with PTE. In patients without PTE, there was no significant decline in Hb concentration in the losartan group compared with baseline. There was no significant decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate in the losartan group. CONCLUSIONS Losartan may be an effective agent for treatment of hyperuricemia and PTE in Han Chinese patients after kidney transplantation. However, in some patients, losartan may not be safe.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the association between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and colorectal cancer (CRC). STUDY DESIGN An international ecological study and a population-based risk analysis. METHODS Prevalence data for T2DM and incidence data for CRC were collected from 170 countries, and Spearman's correlation was calculated between T2DM and CRC. In the Nan-Hu district of Jia-Xing city, Zhejiang province, China, the incidence of CRC among T2DM patients between 1 January 2002 and 30 June 2002 was identified through record linkage between the Diabetic Surveillance and Registry Database with the Cancer Surveillance and Registry Database. Standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) and 95% confidence intervals were used to estimate the risk of CRC among T2DM patients. RESULTS Significant positive correlations (r(s)=0.534 and 0.597 in males and females, respectively) were found between the prevalence of T2DM and the incidence of CRC. Sixty-four cases of CRC were found among 7938 T2DM patients. The SIR for CRC among T2DM patients was 1.588 (95% CI 1.199-1.977). For male T2DM patients, the SIR for CRC was 1.821 (95% CI 1.234-2.408), compared with 1.364 (95% CI 0.85-1.879) among female T2DM patients. Significant increased risks for colon cancer were found, with an SIR of 1.899 (95% CI 1.139-2.658) in male T2DM patients. Female T2DM patients showed a borderline significant risk for colon cancer, with an SIR of 1.687 (95% CI 0.948-2.426). However, no significant associations were found between T2DM and risk for rectal cancer among males (SIR 1.723, 95% CI 0.786-2.66) or females (SIR 0.906, 95% CI 0.235-1.578) (all P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS T2DM was associated with increased risk for CRC, and this association was more evident for colon cancer and among male diabetic patients.

Abstract
Intra-operative guidance in Transrectal Ultrasound (TRUS) guided prostate brachytherapy requires localization of inserted radioactive seeds relative to the prostate. Seeds were reconstructed using a typical C-arm, and exported to a commercial brachytherapy system for dosimetry analysis. Technical obstacles for 3D reconstruction on a non-isocentric C-arm included pose-dependent C-arm calibration; distortion correction; pose estimation of C-arm images; seed reconstruction; and C-arm to TRUS registration. In precision-machined hard phantoms with 40-100 seeds, we correctly reconstructed 99.8% seeds with a mean 3D accuracy of 0.68 mm. In soft tissue phantoms with 45-87 seeds and clinically realistic 15 degrees C-arm motion, we correctly reconstructed 100% seeds with an accuracy of 1.3 mm. The reconstructed 3D seed positions were then registered to the prostate segmented from TRUS. In a Phase-1 clinical trial, so far on 4 patients with 66-84 seeds, we achieved intra-operative monitoring of seed distribution and dosimetry. We optimized the 100% prescribed iso-dose contour by inserting an average of 3.75 additional seeds, making intra-operative dosimetry possible on a typical C-arm, at negligible additional cost to the existing clinical installation.

Abstract
Many hematological diseases require long-term transfusion support, which causes production of donor-reactive antibodies in sensitized recipients. Sensitized patients are at an increased risk for graft rejection when they undergo allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Here, we established a highly sensitized murine model to investigate the mechanism of donor graft rejection. After BALB/c mice were repeatedly transfused with allogeneic spleen cells from C57BL/6 mice, there was a significant increase in complement-dependent cytotoxicity in the serum of sensitized mice. For transplantation, 1 x 10(7) bone marrow cells (BMCs) from C57BL/6 mice were injected into lethally irradiated recipient BALB/c mice. Sensitized mice died between 12 and 15 days post-transplantation, while non-sensitized mice remained alive after 28 days. The hematopoietic recovery rate declined over time in sensitized recipients. The homing trace assay showed a rapid disappearance of donor BMCs in the spleen and bone marrow of sensitized recipients. In addition, the recipient cells and antibodies in the sensitized serum were capable of inducing high level of cell- and complement-mediated cytotoxicity to the donor graft. Our finding may explain the impaired hematopoietic stem cell homing and poor hematopoietic engraftment observed in highly sensitized allo-HSCT patients.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSC/P) reside in the bone marrow in distinct anatomic locations (niches) to receive growth, survival and differentiation signals. HSC/P localization and migration between niches depend on cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions, which result from the cooperation of cytokines, chemokines and adhesion molecules. The CXCL12-CXCR4 pathway, in particular, is essential for myelopoiesis and B lymphopoiesis but the molecular mechanisms of CXCL12 action remain unclear. We previously noted a strong correlation between prolonged CXCL12-mediated focal adhesion kinase (FAK) phosphorylation and sustained pro-adhesive responses in progenitor B cells, but not in mature B cells. Although FAK has been well studied in adherent fibroblasts, its function in hematopoietic cells is not defined. We used two independent approaches to reduce FAK expression in (human and mouse) progenitor cells. RNA interference (RNAi)-mediated FAK silencing abolished CXCL12-induced responses in human pro-B leukemia, REH cells. FAK-deficient REH cells also demonstrated reduced CXCL12-induced activation of the GTPase Rap1, suggesting the importance of FAK in CXCL12-mediated integrin activation. Moreover, in FAK(flox/flox) hematopoietic precursor cells, Cre-mediated FAK deletion resulted in impaired CXCL12-induced chemotaxis. These studies suggest that FAK may function as a key intermediary in signaling pathways controlling hematopoietic cell lodgment and lineage development.

Abstract
We present the first observation of the baryon decay Lambda b0-->Lambda c+pi- followed by Lambda c+-->pK-pi+ in 106 pb-1 pp collisions at square root s=1.96 TeV in the CDF experiment. In order to reduce systematic error, the measured rate for Lambda b0 decay is normalized to the kinematically similar meson decay B0-->D+pi- followed by D+-->pi+K-pi+. We report the ratio of production cross sections (sigma) times the ratio of branching fractions (B) for the momentum region integrated above pT>6 GeV/c and pseudorapidity range |eta|<1.3: sigma(pp-->Lambda b0X)/sigma(pp-->B0X)xB(Lambda b0-->Lambda c+pi-)/B(B0-->D+pi-)=0.82+/-0.08(stat)+/-0.11(syst)+/-0.22[B(Lambda c+-->pK-pi+)].

Abstract
We present a new search for H0V production, where H0 is a scalar Higgs boson decaying into bb with branching ratio beta, and V is a Z0 boson decaying into e+e-, mu+mu-, or nunu. This search is then combined with previous searches for H0V where V is a W+/- boson or a hadronically decaying Z0. The data sample consists of 106 +/- 4 pb(-1) of pp collisions at square root of s = 1.8 TeV accumulated by the Collider Detector at Fermilab. Observing no evidence of a signal, we set 95% Bayesian credibility level upper limits on sigma(pp --> H0V) x beta. For H0 masses of 90, 110, and 130 GeV/c2, the limits are 7.8, 7.2, and 6.6 pb, respectively.

We report on a search for anomalous kinematics of tt dilepton events in pp collisions at square root of s=1.96 TeV using 193 pb(-1) of data collected with the CDF II detector. We developed a new a priori technique designed to isolate the subset in a data sample revealing the largest deviation from standard model (SM) expectations and to quantify the significance of this departure. In the four-variable space considered, no particular subset shows a significant discrepancy, and we find that the probability of obtaining a data sample less consistent with the SM than what is observed is 1.0%-4.5%.

Abstract
We report a measurement of the rate of prompt diphoton production in pp collisions at square root of s=1.96 TeV using a data sample of 207 pb(-1) collected with the upgraded Collider Detector at Fermilab. The background from nonprompt sources is determined using a statistical method based on differences in the electromagnetic showers. The cross section is measured as a function of the diphoton mass, the transverse momentum of the diphoton system, and the azimuthal angle between the two photons and is found to be consistent with perturbative QCD predictions.

Measurement of the W(+)W(-) production cross section in pp collisions at square root[s]=1.96 TeV using dilepton events. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2005; 94:211801.

Abstract
We present a measurement of the W(+)W(-) production cross section using 184 pb(-1) of p(p) collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV collected with the Collider Detector at Fermilab. Using the dilepton decay channel W(+)W(-)-->l(+)nul(-), where the charged leptons can be either electrons or muons, we find 17 candidate events compared to an expected background of 5.0(+2.2)(-0.8) events. The resulting W(+)W(-) production cross-section measurement of sigma(pp-->W(+)W(-))=14.6(+5.8)(-5.1)(stat)(+1.8)(-3.0)(syst) +/- 0.9(lum) pb agrees well with the standard model expectation.
