Abstract
Immunodeficient murine models are usually used as the preclinical models of osteosarcoma. Such models do not effectively simulate the process of tumorigenesis and metastasis. Establishing a suitable animal model for understanding the mechanism of osteosarcoma and the clinical translation is indispensable. The UMR-106 cell suspension was injected into the marrow cavity of Balb/C nude mice. Tumor masses were harvested from nude mice and sectioned. The tumor fragments were transplanted into the marrow cavities of SD rats immunosuppressed with cyclosporine A. Through muti-rounds selection in SD rats, we constructed orthotopic osteosarcoma animal models using rats with intact immune systems. The primary tumor cells were cultured in-vitro to obtain the immune-tolerant cell line. VX2 tumor fragments were transplanted into the distal femur and parosteal radius of New Zealand white rabbit to construct orthotopic osteosarcoma animal models in rabbits. The rate of tumor formation in SD rats (P1 generation) was 30%. After four rounds of selection and six rounds of acclimatization in SD rats with intact immune systems, we obtained immune-tolerant cell lines and established the orthotopic osteosarcoma model of the distal femur in SD rats. Micro-CT images confirmed tumor-driven osteolysis and the bone destruction process. Moreover, the orthotopic model was also established in New Zealand white rabbits by implanting VX2 tumor fragments into rabbit radii and femurs. We constructed orthotopic osteosarcoma animal models in rats with intact immune systems through muti-rounds in-vivo selection and the rabbit osteosarcoma model.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dual-energy computed tomography, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) can be used to distinguish microinvasion areas of malignant bone tumors. However, reports of diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) to determine the extent of intramedullary infiltration are relatively rare. PURPOSE To assess the application value of MR-DKI in differentiating areas of microinfiltration and simple edema in rabbit bone VX2 tumor models. MATERIAL AND METHODS Conventional MRI and DKI were performed on 25 successfully constructed rabbit VX2 bone tumor models. We acquired a midline sagittal section of the tumor for hematoxylin and eosin staining. Using pathological findings as the gold standard and combining them with MRI data, strict point-to-point control was performed to delineate regions of interest (ROIs) in the microinfiltration and simple-edema areas of bone tumors for quantitative measurement of mean diffusivity (MD) and mean kurtosis (MK). MD and MK values between microinfiltration and simple-edema areas were compared using an independent sample t-test, and the diagnostic values were evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS In comparison with the simple-edema area, the micro-infiltration area demonstrated significantly smaller MD values and larger MK values (P < 0.05), and MD showed a better area under the curve (AUC) than MK (AUC = 0.884 vs. AUC = 0.690) for distinguishing the microinfiltration area from the simple-edema area. The optimal cutoff MD value was 1108.5 mm2/s with a sensitivity of 84% and specificity of 84%. CONCLUSION DKI can distinguish the microinfiltration and simple-edema areas of malignant bone tumors in animal experiments.

J Magn Reson Imaging 2020; 53:1522-1527. [PMID: 33368767 DOI: 10.1002/jmri.27474] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2020] [Revised: 12/01/2020] [Accepted: 12/01/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Identification of the original site of sinonasal inverted papillomas (SIPs) is difficult but essential for reducing the recurrence rate. Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) may provide information about tissue perfusion and permeability to solve this problem. PURPOSE To investigate the accuracy of DCE-MRI parameters in discriminating between regions of interest (ROIs) in the original site and peripheral portion. STUDY TYPE Retrospective. POPULATION Ninety consecutive patients with pathologically proven SIP. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE 3.0T/DCE-MRI using fast-spoiled gradient recalled (FSPGR) T1 -weighted images with fat saturation. ASSESSMENT ROIs were placed in the original site and the peripheral portion of SIP by two radiologists according to surgical records. Maximum slope of increase (MaxSlope), contrast-enhancement ratio (CER), bolus arrival time (BAT), initial area under the signal intensity-time curve (IAUGC), volume transfer constant (Ktrans ), volume of the extravascular extracellular space (ve ), and rate constant (Kep ) were calculated and repeated again with a month interval by a radiologist. STATISTICAL TESTS Univariate and multivariate analysis was used to determine the best diagnostic parameters, and their performances in discrimination were evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Reproducibility was estimated by the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). RESULTS MaxSlope, CER, IAUGC, Ktrans , and ve were significantly lower (P < 0.05) in the original site than the peripheral portion of SIPs. CER (odds ratio [OR] = 0.227, 95% confidence interval [95% CI] = 0.073-0.704) and ve (OR = 0.048, 95% CI = 0.004-0.527) were the best indicators for identifying the original ROIs. The combination of CER and ve had the best diagnostic performance in the discrimination between the ROIs (the area under the curve [AUC]: 0.937; 95% CI: 0.896-0.974). DATA CONCLUSION DCE-MRI derived parameter values differed between the original site and the peripheral portion of SIPs. The model combining CER and ve appears to be able to accurately distinguish the original from peripheral ROIs. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4 TECHNICAL EFFICACY STAGE: 2.
