Abstract
Introduction In metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), the B-type Raf kinase (BRAF)V600E mutation is a molecular biomarker of poor prognosis and is of great importance to drug target. Currently, the commonly used methods for detecting BRAFV600E mutation include immunohistochemistry (IHC) and gene sequencing, but both present certain limitations. Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is a spectroscopy technology that takes advantage of the electromagnetic wavelength between visible light and mid-infrared light. Methods IHC was used to detect the expression of BRAFV600E protein with the BRAFV600E (VE1) antibody in 42 cases of paraffin-embedded (FFPE) mCRC tissue sections. The NIR-discriminant analysis model (NIRS-DA) was established using 6 cases of wild-type and 6 cases of mutant-type BRAF specimens. Results IHC detection results revealed 13 cases of weakly positive (+), 1 case of moderately positive (++), and 28 cases of negative (-) CRC. Compared with the next-generation sequencing (NGS) results, the positive rate was 66.7%. The classification accuracy of calibration (CAC) was 100% compared with the results of NGS, demonstrating that the BRAFV600E mutant NIRS-DA model, verified by 2 cases of wild-type and 2 cases of mutant-type CRC samples was established. The NIRS-DA model was used to predict gene mutation in the CRC samples, 7 cases were positive (+), and 35 cases were negative (-), and the classification accuracy of prediction (CAP) was 83.3% (35/42). Discussion The NIRS-DA model-predicted results were in high agreement with the detection results of NGS, and the difference in IHC is not statistically significant (P>0.05). However, this study is a preliminary discussion on a methodology due to its small sample size.

[PMID: 31259065 PMCID: PMC6583354 DOI: 10.1364/boe.10.002956] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2019] [Revised: 04/21/2019] [Accepted: 05/13/2019] [Indexed: 05/05/2023]
Abstract
In the field of biomedicine, there are optical systems that provide the tissue metabolic rate of oxygen consumption (tMRO2) by the simultaneous measurement of blood flow and oxygenation level. However, current optical systems are costly and require complex optical alignments, which are inconvenient for clinical applications. Therefore, in this study, we developed a simple diffuse optical metabolic spectroscopy system by combining a broadband light source and a laser and by sharing a spectrometer as a detector for both diffuse optical spectroscopy and diffuse speckle contrast analysis. This system simultaneously measures blood flow, volume, and oxygenation in a simple and cost-effective manner. The system response to flow is demonstrated through the flow phantom experiments. The results of the experiments show that flow response is in the range 0~0.9 ml/min, with a resolution better than 0.1 ml/min. During the blood phantom study, the blood volume fraction increased linearly with blood accumulation. Further, the change in oxygenation was monitored with the modulation of the oxygen level in the gas supply. Finally, tMRO2 changes were measured during ischemia, induced by the upper arm cuff and the results showed a decrease and a recovery of tMRO2 with cuff inflation and deflation, respectively. This simple diffuse optical metabolic spectroscopic system can easily be applied in medical environments by providing a simple and convenient solution for measuring tMRO2.

Abstract
An optical probe was developed to measure the change of oxy-hemoglobin (OHb), deoxy- hemoglobin (RHb), and total hemoglobin (THb) along with temperature from the vaginal wall of female rats. Apomorphine (APO, 80 μg/kg) was administered to elicit sexual arousal in female Sprague Dawley rats (SD, 180–200 g). The behavior changes caused by APO administration were checked before monitoring vaginal responses. The changes of oxy-, deoxy-, and total hemoglobin concentration and the temperature from the vaginal wall were monitored before, during, and after APO administration. Animals were under anesthesia during the measurement. After APO administration, the concentration of OHb (55 ± 29 μM/DPF), RHb (33 ± 25 μM/DPF), and THb (83 ± 59 μM/DPF) in the vaginal wall increased in a few min, while saline administration did not cause any significant change. In case of the vaginal temperature change, APO decreased the temperature slightly in the vaginal wall while saline administration did not show any temperature change in the vaginal wall. As the outcomes demonstrated, the developed probe can detect hemodynamic and temperature variation in the vaginal wall. The hemodynamic information acquired by the probe can be utilized to establish an objective and accurate standard of female sexual disorders.

Abstract
Continuous wave diffuse optical tomographic/spectroscopic system does not provide absolute concentrations of chromophores in tissue and monitor only the changes of chromophore concentration. Therefore, it requires a perturbation of physiological signals, such as blood flow and oxygenation. In that sense, a few groups reported that monitoring a relative hemodynamic change during a breast tissue compression or a breath-hold to a patient can provide good contrast between tumor and nontumor. However, no longitudinal study reports the utilization of a breath-hold to predict tumor response during chemotherapy. A continuous wave near-infrared spectroscopy was employed to monitor hemodynamics in rat breast tumor during a hyperoxic to normoxic inhalational gas intervention to mimic a breath-hold during tumor growth and chemotherapy. The reduced oxyhemoglobin concentration during inhalational gas intervention correlated well with tumor growth, and it responded one day earlier than the change of tumor volume after chemotherapy. In conclusion, monitoring tumor hemodynamics during a breath-hold may serve as a biomarker to predict chemotherapeutic efficacy of tumor.
