Abstract
Redifferentiation therapy with Dabrafenib (a BRAF inhibitor) and Trametinib (a MEK inhibitor) restores radioiodine avidity of radioiodine-refractory papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). A 50-year-old man was diagnosed with radioiodine-refractory PTC pulmonary metastasis post prior total thyroidectomy and radioiodine ablation. The patient was treated with Dabrafenib and Trametinib, followed by second radioiodine ablation with I-131 sodium iodine. Diffuse increased radioiodine uptake by pulmonary metastasis was visualized on post ablation whole body scan. Response to second radioiodine ablation was demonstrated by decrease in size of pulmonary nodules seen on chest CT, along with decrease of thyroglobulin level.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The effect of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) on the outcome of patients with large-vessel occlusion undergoing endovascular treatment (EVT) has mainly focused on the anterior circulation. Knowledge of the relationship between ICH and outcomes in patients with acute vertebrobasilar artery occlusion (VBAO) receiving EVT is limited. We aimed to assess whether ICH is a prognostic marker for acute VBAO following EVT. METHODS Patients who underwent EVT for acute VBAO in the acute posterior circulation ischemic stroke (PERSIST) registry were included. All patients were classified as having no or any-ICH. Any-ICH was subdivided into asymptomatic and symptomatic ICH. A multivariate regression analysis was performed to evaluate the association between ICH and functional outcomes in patients with acute VBAO after receiving EVT. RESULTS Five hundred and forty-seven patients, including 107 patients with ICH (19.6%): 38 (7.0%) and 69 (12.6%) with symptomatic and asymptomatic ICH, respectively. After adjustment for potential confounders, any-ICH was independently associated with reduced chance of favorable outcome (OR 0.39, 95% CI 0.21-0.72, P=0.003), functional independence (OR 0.24, 95% CI 0.16-0.52, P<0.001), and excellent outcome (OR 0.34, 95% CI 0.15-0.75, P=0.008), and increased mortality risk (OR 2.14, 95% CI 1.30-3.51, P=0.003). Symptomatic ICH had a similar association. Moreover, asymptomatic ICH was a negative predictor of functional independence (OR 0.39, 95% CI 0.17-0.88, P=0.024). CONCLUSION Any- and symptomatic ICH were strongly associated with worse clinical outcomes and increased mortality in patients with acute VBAO who underwent EVT. Asymptomatic ICH was an inverse predictor of functional independence.

Abstract
The percent global glomerulosclerosis is a key factor in determining the outcome of renal transfer surgery. At present, the rate is typically computed by pathologists, which is labour intensive and nonstandardized. With the development of Deep Learning (DL), DL-based segmentation models can be used to better identify and segment normal and sclerosed glomeruli. Based on this, we can better quantify percent global glomerulosclerosis to reduce the discard rate of donor kidneys. We used 51 whole slide images (WSIs) from different institutions that are publicly available on the internet. However, the number of sclerosed glomeruli is much smaller than that of normal glomeruli in different WSIs, which can reduce the effectiveness of Deep Learning. For better sclerosed glomerular identification and segmentation performance, we modified and trained a GAN (generative adversarial network)-based image inpainting model to obtain more synthetic sclerosed glomeruli. Our proposed inpainting method achieved an average SSIM (Structural Similarity) of 0.8086 and an average PSNR (Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio) of 22.8943 dB in the area of generated sclerosed glomeruli. We obtained sclerosed glomerular segmentation performance improvement by adding synthetic sclerosed glomerular images and achieved the best Dice of glomerular segmentation in different test sets based on the modified Unet model.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Bulky tumors remain challenging to be treated. Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is effective against radioresistant tumor cells and can induce immunogenic cell death (ICD) that leads to T-cell-mediated antitumor effects. Low-dose radiation (LDRT) can inflame the tumor microenvironment (TME) by recruiting T cells. We designed a novel radiotherapy technique (RT, ERT) whose dose distribution map resembles the "eclipse" by concurrently delivering LDRT to the whole tumor, meanwhile SBRT to only a part of the same tumor. This study examined the safety and efficacy of ERT to bulky lesions with PD-1 inhibitors in mice and patients. MATERIALS/METHODS In mice with CT26 colon or LLC1 lung bulky tumors (400 - 500 cm3), the whole tumor was irradiated by LDRT (2 Gy x 3), meanwhile the tumor center was irradiated by SBRT (10 Gy x 3); αPD-1 was given weekly. The dependence of therapeutic effects on CD8+ T cells was determined using depleting antibodies. Frequencies of CD8+ T cells and M1 macrophages (Mφ) were determined by flow cytometry. Multiplex Immunohistochemistry (mIHC) was applied to analyze the number and the location of CD8+ T cells and their subpopulations, as well as the phospho-eIF2α level (the ICD marker) of tumor cells in TME. Patients with advanced lung or liver bulky tumors who failed standard treatment or with oncologic emergencies were treated. Kaplan-Meier method was applied to estimate patients' progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). RESULTS ERT/αPD-1 is superior to SBRT/αPD-1 or LDRT/αPD-1 in controlling bulky tumors in both mouse models in a CD8+ T-cell dependent manner. In the CT26 model, ERT/αPD-1 resulted in complete tumor regression in 3/11 mice and induced more CD8+ T cells and M1 Mφ in TME compared to other groups. mIHC analysis showed that ERT/αPD-1 induced higher bulk, stem-like (TCF1+ TIM3- PD-1+), and more differentiated (TCF1- TIM3+ PD-1+) CD8+ T cells infiltration into the tumor center and periphery compared to other groups. Compared to untreated or LDRT-treated tumor centers, tumor centers irradiated with ERT or SBRT showed elevated phospho-eIF2α accompanied by higher dendritic cell infiltration. In total, 39 advanced cancer patients were treated with ERT/αPD-1 or plus chemotherapy. Radiation-induced pneumonitis occurred in 1 of 26 patients receiving thoracic ERT. There were two cases of grade III toxicity associated with PD-1 inhibitors. No toxicity above grade III was observed. The objective response rate was 38.5%. The median PFS was 5.6 months and median OS was not reached at a median follow-up of 11.7 months. CONCLUSION ERT/αPD-1 showed superior efficacy in controlling bulky tumor in two mouse models. The hybrid immuno-RT (ERT) combing PD-1 inhibitors was safe and effective in patients with bulky tumors. Further clinical trials in combination with bioimaging to identify the optimal SBRT target region for the bulky tumor are warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Knockdown of human copper transporter 1 has been associated with reduction in copper uptake and suppression of prostate cancer cell proliferation and tumor growth. This study evaluated the effects of steroid-based compounds on copper uptake and proliferation of prostate cancer cells based on their anticancer activity and previous docking analysis of steroid-based copper transporter 1 inhibitors. MATERIALS AND METHODS We synthesized several new steroid-based compounds and used 64Cu uptake assay and copper quantification assay with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry to study their effects on the cellular copper uptake by prostate cancer cells. Additionally, we used CCK-8 cell proliferation assay to study their effects on the proliferation of prostate cancer cells. RESULTS Significant reduction in cellular copper uptake was observed in the prostate cancer cells treated with these new steroid-based compounds. Moreover, proliferation of prostate cancer cells was suppressed by treatment with the steroid-based compound 6, which had the strongest copper uptake inhibition activity. CONCLUSION Reduction in copper uptake and inhibition of cell proliferation were demonstrated in prostate cancer cells treated with the new steroid-based compounds synthesized in this study. Steroid-based copper transporter 1 inhibitors may become novel anticancer drugs for targeted anti-copper therapy of prostate cancer and other copper hypermetabolic cancers.

Objective: To investigate the role of chest wall elastic resistance in determining the effects of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) on central venous pressure (CVP) in patients with mechanical ventilation (MV). Methods: In this prospective study, according to the median of ratio of chest wall elastic resistance to respiratory system elastic resistance (Ers), patients were divided into high chest wall elastic resistance group (Ecw/Ers≥0.24) and low chest wall elastic resistance group [elastance of chest wall (Ecw)/Ers<0.24]. PEEP was set at 5, 10, 15 cmH2O (1 cmH2O=0.098 kPa) respectively. Clinical data including CVP, heart rate (HR), blood pressure (BP) and respiratory mechanics were recorded. Results: Seventy patients receiving MV were included from November 2017 to December 2018. Clinical characteristics including age, BP, HR, baseline PEEP, the ratio of arterial oxygen partial pressure to fractional inspired oxygen (P/F) and comorbidities were comparable in two groups. However, patients with high Ecw/Ers ratio presented higher body mass index (BMI) than those with low Ecw/Ers ratio[ (25.4±3.2) kg/m2 vs. (23.4±3.2) kg/m2, P=0.011]. As PEEP increased from 5 cmH2O to 10 cmH2O, CVP in high Ecw/Ers group increased significantly compared with that in low Ecw/Ers group [1.75(1.00, 2.13) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133kPa) vs. 1.50(0.50, 2.00)mmHg,P=0.038], which was the same as PEEP increased from 10 cmH2O to 15 cmH2O [2.00(1.50, 3.00)mmHg vs. 1.50(1.00, 2.00)mmHg,P=0.041] or PEEP increased from 5 cmH2O to 15 cmH2O [ 3.75(3.00,4.63)mmHg vs. 3.00(1.63, 4.00)mmHg, P=0.012]. When PEEP increased from 5 cmH2O to 10 cmH2O, 10 cmH2O to 15 cmH2O and 10 cmH2O to 15 cmH2O, there were significant correlations between Ecw/Ers and CVP elevation (r=0.29, P=0.016; r=0.31, P=0.011; r=0.31, P=0.01 respectively). Conclusions: In patients receiving mechanical ventilation, elevation of PEEP leads to a synchronous change of CVP, which is corelated with patients' chest wall elastic resistances.

Abstract
Objective: To compare short-term efficacy,effectiveness and safety of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy(LPD) learning curve at different stages and at the same time with open pancreaticoduodenectomy(OPD). Methods: Clinical data of 488 patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy at Department of Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery,Affiliated Tongji Hospital,Tongji Medical College,Huazhong University of Science and Technology from July 2014 to December 2016 were collected. There were 40 cases at the groping stage of LPD surgery(100 cases at the same time of OPD),64 cases at the stable stage (89 cases at the same time of OPD),and 118 cases at the mature stage(77 cases at the same time of OPD).The clinical data of LPD and OPD in the same period were compared and analyzed by χ2 test,t test and U test,respectively. Results: There was no significant difference in preoperative indicators between the two groups at the three stages(all P>0.05). In terms of intraoperative blood volume of the LPD group was significantly lower than that of the OPD group at three stages(M(QR))(111.1(150.0)ml(range:0 to 700 ml) vs. 393.9(400.0)ml(range:0 to 3 000 ml),120.8(115.0)ml(range:0 to 1 000 ml) vs. 442.9(450.0)ml(range:0 to 2 000 ml) and 150.0(200.0)ml(range:10 to 1 500 ml) vs. 364.3(400.0)ml(range:0 to 1 500 ml))(all P<0.05). And in terms of operation time of the LPD group was significantly higher than that of the OPD group at the groping stage((461.1±123.9)min(range:220 to 690 minutes) vs. (385.9±113.9)minutes(range:150 to 655 minutes))(P<0.05),and there was no significant difference between the LPD group and the OPD group at the stable and mature stage(P>0.05). The incidence of B+C level pancreatic fistula of the LPD group was higher than that of the OPD group at groping stage(17.5% vs. 3.0%)(P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the LPD group and the OPD group at the stable and mature stage(P>0.05). The incidence of postoperative rebleeding(27.5%),bile leakage(20.0%) and abdominal infection(20.0%) of the LPD group was higher than those of the OPD group(11.0%(11/100),5.0%(5/100) and 7.0%(7/100)) at groping stage. There were no significant differences between the LPD group and the OPD group at the stable and mature stage(P>0.05). There were no significant differences of incidence gastrointestinal leakage,hepatic failure,renal failure,cardiac failure,pulmonary infection and 30-day death between the LPD group and the OPD group(all P>0.05). The incidence rate of gastroplegia in the LPD group was lower than that in the OPD group at the stable and mature stage(26.5%(17/64) vs. 44.9%(40/89) and 24.5%(29/118) vs. 38.9%(30/77))(all P<0.05),there was no significant difference between the LPD group and the OPD group at the groping stage(P>0.05). In terms of other incidence of complications,there were no significant differences between the LPD group and the OPD group at three stages(all P>0.05). There were no significant differences of positive margin rate of pancreas,bile duct,retroperitoneum,vascular channel,uncinate process and rate of R0 resection between the LPD group and the OPD group at three stages(all P>0.05). In terms of numbers of lymph nodes,there was no significant difference between the LPD group and the OPD group at three stages(all P>0.05).Postoperative hospital stay of the LPD group was shorter than that of the OPD group at the stable stage((14.8±6.9)days(range:10 to 38 days) vs. (17.0±9.0)days(range:4 to 56 days)) and the mature stage((13.0±7.4)days(range:3 to 57 days) vs. (15.8±6.7)days(range:6 to 69 days)(all P<0.05). Conclusion: with the stable and mature learning curve of LPD surgery,compared with traditional OPD surgery,it has the characteristics of less intraoperative bleeding,shorter postoperative hospitalization,lower incidence of delay gastric empty,safe and effective.

Abstract
Background This study aimed to cluster newly diagnosed patients and patients with long-term diabetes and to explore the clinical characteristics, risk of diabetes complications, and medication treatment related to each cluster. Research Design and Methods K-means clustering analysis was performed on 1,060 Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes based on five variables (HbA1c, age at diagnosis, BMI, HOMA2-IR, and HOMA2-B). The clinical features, risk of diabetic complications, and the utilization of elven types of medications agents related to each cluster were evaluated with the chi-square test and the Tukey-Kramer method. Results Four replicable clusters were identified, severe insulin-resistant diabetes (SIRD), severe insulin-deficient diabetes (SIDD), mild obesity-related diabetes (MOD), and mild age-related diabetes (MARD). In terms of clinical characteristics, there were significant differences in blood pressure, renal function, and lipids among clusters. Furthermore, individuals in SIRD had the highest prevalence of stages 2 and 3 chronic kidney disease (CKD) (57%) and diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) (67%), while individuals in SIDD had the highest risk of diabetic retinopathy (32%), albuminuria (31%) and lower extremity arterial disease (LEAD) (13%). Additionally, the difference in medication treatment of clusters were observed in metformin (p = 0.012), α-glucosidase inhibitor (AGI) (p = 0.006), dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitor (DPP-4) (p = 0.017), glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) (p <0.001), insulin (p <0.001), and statins (p = 0.006). Conclusions The newly diagnosed patients and patients with long-term diabetes can be consistently clustered into featured clusters. Each cluster had significantly different patient characteristics, risk of diabetic complications, and medication treatment.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the prognostic value of metabolic tumor volume (MTV) and total lesion glycolysis (TLG), measured by preoperative 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT), in risk stratification of patients with endometrial carcinoma (EC). Methods The patients with pathological diagnosis of EC who underwent preoperative 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging were retrospectively selected for analysis of the prognostic values of PET parameters in risk classification and lymph node metastases (LNMs). Receiver-operating-characteristic analysis was used to analyze the correlation of PET parameters cutoff values with deep myometrial invasion (MI), lymphovascular space involvement and LNM for prognostic values in risk stratification. Results The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and accuracy for detection of LNM are 83.3%, 99.7%, 90.9%, 99.5% and 99.2%, respectively. The MTV and TLG of primary lesion of EC in the patients with LNM are notably higher than those in patients without LNM, p<0.010. The MTV and TLG of the EC primary lesions in high-risk patients are significantly higher than those in low-risk patients (p<0.010), but the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) is not. The MTV and TLG of primary lesions were superior to SUVmax for predicting of deep MI, LNM and high-risk of EC (p<0.005). Conclusion MTV and TLG of primary lesions are more valuable in predicting risk stratification of EC patients. Preoperative 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging is useful in predicting the LNM of EC and may help guide pelvic lymphadenectomy to avoid unnecessary pelvic lymphadenectomy in EC patients with low-risk stratification.

Abstract
A 74-year-old man presented with rapid rising prostate-specific antigen (PSA) 2 years after treatment of prostate cancer with prostatectomy and salvage radiation therapy. PSA increased from 923 to 4349 ng/mL within 2 months. No osseous metastatic lesions of prostate cancer were detected by 18F-sodium fluoride PET/CT imaging at an outside facility. 18F-fluciclovine PET/CT imaging was performed to evaluate local recurrence of prostate cancer at surgical bed of prostatectomy and distant metastasis. One small focus of low-level 18F-fluciclovine radiotracer uptake was noted in the surgical bed of prostatectomy without corresponding soft tissue mass on CT. No fluciclovine-avid lymph nodes or osseous metastatic lesions were detected, but multiple hypodense lesions of variable 18F-fluciclovine radiotracer uptake were noted in the liver, concerning for isolated liver metastasis of prostate cancer. The patient underwent docetaxel chemotherapy for treatment of prostate cancer liver metastasis and showed a favorable response to treatment by significant decreased size of the hypodense lesions in the liver on post treatment abdominal CT, along with dramatic reduction of PSA level and improvement of liver function. The findings from this case highlight the importance of checking hypoattenuating lesions in the liver for the presence of prostate cancer metastatic lesions that might appear similar to other benign hypoattenuating lesions of low fluciclovine uptake relative to physiological 18F-fluciclovine uptake in the normal liver tissues, a potential pitfall at interpretation of 18F-fluociclovine PET/CT imaging.

Abstract
AIMS Diabetes mellitus is a risk factor for Parkinson's disease. These diseases share similar pathogenic pathways, such as mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammation, and altered metabolism. Despite these similarities, the pathogenic relationship between these two diseases is unclear. [18F]FP-(+)-DTBZ is a promising radiotracer targeting VMAT2, which has been used to measure β-cell mass and to diagnose Parkinson's disease. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of type 1 diabetes on VMAT2 expression in the striatum using [18F]FP-(+)-DTBZ. MATERIALS AND METHODS A longitudinal study of type 1 diabetic rats was established by intraperitoneally injecting male Wistar rats with streptozotocin. Rats injected with saline were used as the control group. Glucose level, body weight, and [18F]FP-(+)-DTBZ uptake in the striatum and pancreas were evaluated at 0.5, 1, 4, 6 and 12 months after STZ or saline injection. RESULTS At one-half month post-STZ injection, the glucose levels in these rats increased and then returned to a normal level at 6 months. Along with increased glucose levels, body weight was also decreased significantly and returned slowly to a normal level. β-Cell mass and striatal [18F]FP-(+)-DTBZ uptake were impaired significantly at 2 weeks post-STZ injection in type 1 diabetic rats and returned to a normal level at 6 and 4 months post-STZ injection. CONCLUSIONS Due to increased glucose levels and decreased β-cell mass, decreased [18F]FP-(+)-DTBZ uptake in the striatum was observed in type 1 diabetic rats. Decreased BCM and increased glucose levels were correlated with VMAT2 expression in the striatum which indicated DM is a risk factor for PD.

Abstract
Objective: To observe and evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of LVIS stent and Enterprise stent assisted coil in embolization of vertebral artery dissection aneurysm (VDA). Methods: Clinical data of 96 patients with VDAs treated by LVIS stent and Enterprise stent assisted coil were analyzed retrospectively between January, 2013 and June, 2017.Of all, the LVIS stent assisted coil was performed in 28 patients (LVIS-stent group) and Enterprise in 68 patients (Enterprise-stent group). The clinical and imaging follow-up were performed. The instant embolization rate, complications, and recurrence rate were analyzed and compared between the two groups. Results: Instant angiographic results:in the LVIS stent group, complete occlusion was achieved in 17 VDAs (60.7%), near-complete occlusion in 10VDAs (35.7%), and partial occlusion in 1 VDA (3.6%). In the Enterprise stent group, complete occlusion was achieved in 27 VDAs (39.7%), near-complete occlusion in 34VDAs(50.0%), partial occlusion in 7VDAs (10.3%). Procedure-related complications occurred in 3 patients (10.7%) in LVIS stent group and 3 patients (4.4%) in Enterprise stent group. DSA follow-up was performed during 6 to 12 months after surgery, and 10 patients with vertebral artery dissection aneurysm recurred, 2 in the LVIS group and 8 in the Enterprise stent group. The latest modified Rankin Scale score was 0 in 55 patients,1 in 13, 2 in 1, 3 in 1, and 6 in 1. Among them, all follow-up patients in the LVIS stent group had good prognosis, while in the Enterprise stent group, 50 patients (94.4%) had a good prognosis. Conclusions: The stent-assisted coils have a higher degree of embolization in the vertebral artery dissection aneurysms, a higher rate of near-total embolization, a lower incidence of neurological complications, and a good prognosis. The complete andnear-complete occlusion rates and the incidence of neurological complicationsin the LVIS group was higher than that in the Enterprise groupand the recurrence ratesin the LVIS group was lower than that in the Enterprise group,both with no statistically significant difference.

Abstract
Background: Brain development and maturation in adolescence is a complex process with active changes of metabolic and neurotransmission pathways. Positron emission tomography (PET) is a useful imaging modality for tracking metabolic and functional changes in adolescent brain. In this study, changes of glucose metabolism, expression of vesicular monoamine transporter 2 and dopamine transporter during adolescent brain development in rats were investigated with PET/CT. Methods: A longitudinal PET/CT study of age-dependent changes of VMAT2, DAT and glucose metabolism in adolescent brain was conducted in a group of Wistar rats (n = 6) post sequential intravenous injection of 18F-PF-(+)-DTBZ, 11C-CFT, and 18F-FDG, respectively. PET acquisition was performed at 2, 4, 9, and 12 months of age. Radiotracer uptake in different brain regions, including the striatum, cerebellum, and hippocampus, were quantified and recorded as Standardized uptake value (SUV) and striatal specific uptake ratio (SUVR: SUV in brain regions/SUV in cerebellum). Results: Variable uptake of 18F-PF-(+)-DTBZ and 11C-CFT were detected, with highest level uptake in the striatum and accumbens. There was significant age-dependent increase of 18F-PF-(+)-DTBZ and 11C-CFT uptake in the striatum from 2 months of age (SUV: 1.36 ± 0.22, 1.37 ± 0.39, respectively), to 4 months (SUV: 2.22 ± 0.29, 2.04 ± 0.33), 9 months (1.98 ± 0.34, 2.09 ± 0.18), 12 months (SUV: 1.93 ± 0.19, 2.00 ± 0.17) of age, SUV of 18F-FDG also increased from 2 months of age to older ages (SUV in the striatum: 3.71 ± 0.78 at 2 month, 5.28 ± 0.81, 5.14 ± 0.73, 4.94 ± 0.50 at 4, 9, 12 month, respectively). Conclusion: Age-dependent increases of striatal of 18F-FDG, 18F-PF-(+)-DTBZ, and 11C-CFT uptake were detected in rats from 2 to 4 month of age, demonstrating striatal development presents over the first 4 months of age. Four months of age can be considered a safe threshold to launch brain disease studies for exclusion of confusion of continuing tissue development. These findings support further investigation of age-dependent changes in expression of DAT, VMAT2, and glucose metabolism for their potential use as a new imaging biomarker for study of brain development and functional maturation.

Abstract
Pulmonary mucormycosis is a rare opportunistic infection caused by Mucormycosis. This fungal infection is uncommon in immunocompetent individuals. Because of its various clinical and imaging manifestations, it is a diagnostic challenge to distinguish pulmonary mucormycosis from other pulmonary diseases, such as carcinoma. Herein, we report a case of pulmonary mucormycosis presenting as Pancoast syndrome and bone destruction of ribs. A 46-year-old Chinese woman was admitted due to pain in chest, right neck and arm for four months and hoarseness for one week. The pre-admission diagnosis via chest CT was pulmonary carcinoma. The subsequent bronchoalveolar lavage fluid analysis and bronchoscopic biopsy were negative for malignant cells, except chronic inflammation. Imaging-guided percutaneous biopsies were carried out after admission and the final pathological diagnosis was pulmonary mucormycosis. Although the patient was started on oral posaconazole of 400mg bid, the disease condition continued to deteriorate. She finally died of respiratory failure.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical characteristics, clinical effect and follow-up outcome of the different endovascular treatment techniques in the treatment of unruptured vertebrobasilar dissecting aneurysms (VBDAs). Methods: The clinical data of 160 consecutive patients (175VBDAs) from January 2012 to December 2016 in Beijing Tiantan hospital were retrospectively analyzed.All of the 175 aneurysms were treated with endovascular embolization, including 115 stent-assisted coils, 27 simple stents, 21 blood flow diverting devices, and 12 parent arteries occlusion.The imaging and clinical follow-up were performed after the operation. Results: Headache including cervical-occipital pain(43.1%)was the most common clinical manifestation.The incidence of perioperative complications was 3.75%, no intraoperative bleeding and no deaths.The imaging findings of 113 aneurysms were followed up for (9.9±7.3) months.Of the 71 stent-assisted coils, 62 recovered well and 9 relapsed; of the 19 aneurysms treated with simple stent, 4 recovered well, 11 improved, 2 stable and 2 relapsed; of the 15 aneurysms treated by the blood flow diverting devices, 4 recovered and 11 improved; all of the 8 aneurysms with parent arteries occlusion recovered well.A total of 144 patients were follow-up (17.3±16.6) months by the Modified Rankin Scale(mRS) score: 140 patients were 0-2 score and 4 patients were 3-6 score. Conclusions: The clinical manifestations of the unruptured VBDAs are complex, and the headache is the most common clinical symptom.Endovascular treatment for the treatment of unruptured VBDAs is safe and feasible.The principle of individualization should be followed during embolization.

Abstract
Copper 8-hydroxyquinoline-2-carboxaldehyde-thiosemicarbazide complex (CuHQTS) is a copper complex with strong anticancer activity against cisplatin-resistant neuroblastoma and prostate cancer cells in vitro by cell proliferation assay or fluorescent microscopic imaging. This study aimed to evaluate anti-prostate cancer activity of CuHQTS in vivo by bioluminescence imaging (BLI) and tumor size measurement, using athymic nu/nu mice implanted with prostate cancer cells carrying luciferase reporter gene (Luc-PC3). Growth of Luc-PC3 cells (1 × 105 cells) implanted in athymic nu/nu mice treated with CuHQTS for 2 weeks was suppressed by measurement of luciferase signals (6.18 × 107 to 5.36 × 107 p/s/cm2/sr) with BLI, compared with luciferase signals of Luc-PC3 cells (4.66 × 107 to 1.51 × 108 p/s/cm2/sr, p < 0.05) in the mice treated with normal saline of placebo control. Moreover, the size of PC-3 xenograft tumor (126.5 ± 34.2 mm3) in athymic nu/nu mice treated with CuHQTS was significantly smaller than the size of PC-3 xenograft tumor (218.6 ± 48.0 mm3, p < 0.05) in athymic nu/nu mice treated with normal saline of placebo control, suggesting in vivo tumor growth inhibition activity of CuHQTS on prostate cancer. The findings of this study support further investigation of CuHQTS as a promising new anticancer agent for the treatment of metastatic prostate cancer refractory to anticancer drugs currently available.

Abstract
Aim: To synthesize and evaluate the imaging potential of Bom-PEG-[64Cu]CuS nanoparticles (NPs) in orothotopic prostate tumor. Materials & methods: [64Cu]CuS NPs were synthesized in aqueous solution by 64CuCl2 and Na2S reaction. Then PEG linker with or without bombesin peptide were conjugated to the surface of [64Cu]CuS NPs to produce Bom-PEG-[64Cu]CuS and PEG-[64Cu]CuS NPs. These two kinds of NPs were used for testing specific uptake in prostate cancer cells in vitro and imaging of orthotopic prostate tumor in vivo. Results: Bom-PEG-[64Cu]CuS and PEG-[64Cu]CuS NPs were successfully synthesized with core diameter of approximately 5 nm. Radioactive cellular uptake revealed that Bom-PEG-[64Cu]CuS was able to specifically bind to prostate cancer cells, and the microPET-CT imaging indicated clear visualization of orthotopic prostate tumors. Conclusion: Radiolabeled Bom-PEG-[64Cu]CuS NPs have potential as an ideal agent for orthotopic prostate tumor imaging by microPET-CT.

Abstract
A large number of microRNAs (miRNAs) have been detected from porcine testicular tissues thanks to the development of high-throughput sequencing technology. However, the regulatory roles of most identified miRNAs in swine testicular development or spermatogenesis are poorly understood. In our previous study, ULK2 (uncoordinated-51-like kinase 2) was predicted as a target gene of miR-26a. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of miR-26a in swine Sertoli cell autophagy. The relative expression of miR-26a and ULK2 levels has a significant negative correlation (R2 = .5964, p ≤ .01) in nine developmental stages of swine testicular tissue. Dual-luciferase reporter assay results show that miR-26a directly targets the 3'UTR of the ULK2 gene (position 618-624). In addition, both the mRNA and protein expression of ULK2 were downregulated by miR-26a in swine Sertoli cells. These results indicate that miR-26a targets the ULK2 gene and downregulates its expression in swine Sertoli cells. Based on the expression of marker genes (LC3, p62 and Beclin-1), overexpression of miR-26a or knock-down of ULK2 inhibits swine Sertoli cell autophagy. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that miR-26a suppresses autophagy in swine Sertoli cells by targeting ULK2.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the molecular mechanism of contractility dysfunction of human bronchial smooth muscle cells induced by nicotine. Methods: Primary human bronchial smooth muscle cells were cultured in vitro. The cells were divided into a control group and a nicotine group which was treated with 10(-5) mol/L nicotine for 48 h and transfected with or without α7nAChR-siRNA (The siNC group, siNC + nicotine group and siα7nAChR + nicotine group). The effects of nicotine on the cell contractile function were examined by collagen gel shrinkage assay. The expressions of α7nAChR and TRPC6 protein in nicotine-treated human bronchial smooth muscle cells were detected by Western blotting. The change of intracellular calcium concentration by nicotine was detected by calcium ion imaging system.Data were analyzed by t test or single factor analysis of variance. Results: The area of collagen gel in the nicotine group (24±8)% was significantly lower than that in the control group (59±14)% (t=3.78, P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the expression of α7nAChR protein in nicotine-induced group (173±16)% was significantly higher than that of controls 100±0)%, t=-6.848, P<0.05. Compared with the siNC group [(72±10)%, (0.79±0.07), (0.41±0.04) and (0.17±0.02) respectively], the collagen gel area of siNC + nicotine group was significantly reduced by (37±10)%. However, the basal calcium level (1.04±0.02), store operated calcium entry level (SOCE, 0.68±0.03) and receptor operated calcium entry level (ROCE, 0.36±0.02) were remarkably elevated in the nicotine treated group (all P<0.05). Furthermore, compared with siNC + nicotine group, the area of collagen gel in siα7nAChR + nicotine group was significantly increased (62±10)%, and the basal calcium level (0.78±0.06), SOCE level (0.39±0.05) and ROCE level (0.15±0.02) were significantly reduced (all P<0.05). Conclusions: Nicotine can increase the expression of TRPC6 protein, SOCE and ROCE level, and increase the intracellular calcium concentration by upregulating the expression of α7nAChR protein, thereby promoting smooth muscle cell contraction.

Abstract
Aging is a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD). There are changes of brain metabolism and biometal fluxes due to brain aging, which may play a role in pathogenesis of AD. Positron emission tomography (PET) is a versatile tool for tracking alteration of metabolism and biometal fluxes due to brain aging and AD. Age-dependent changes in cerebral glucose metabolism can be tracked with PET using 2-deoxy-2-[18F]-fluoro-D-glucose (18F-FDG), a radiolabeled glucose analogue, as a radiotracer. Based on different patterns of altered cerebral glucose metabolism, 18F-FDG PET was clinically used for differential diagnosis of AD and Frontotemporal dementia (FTD). There are continued efforts to develop additional radiopharmaceuticals or radiotracers for assessment of age-dependent changes of various metabolic pathways and biometal fluxes due to brain aging and AD with PET. Elucidation of age-dependent changes of brain metabolism and altered biometal fluxes is not only significant for a better mechanistic understanding of brain aging and the pathophysiology of AD, but also significant for identification of new targets for the prevention, early diagnosis, and treatment of AD.

Abstract
Asymmetric synthesis of chiral β-hydroxy esters, the key building blocks for many functional materials, is currently of great interest. In this study, the biocatalytic anti-Prelog reduction of methyl acetoacetate (MAA) to methyl-(R)-3-hydroxybutyrate ((R)-HBME) was successfully carried out with high enantioselectivity using the whole cell of engineered E. coli, which harbored an AcCR (carbonyl reductase) gene from Acetobacter sp. CCTCC M209061 and a GDH (glucose dehydrogenase) gene from Bacillus subtilis 168 for the in situ regeneration of the coenzyme. Compared with the corresponding wild strain, the engineered E. coli cells were proved to be more effective for the bio-reduction of MAA, and afforded much higher productivity. Under the optimized conditions, the product e.e. was >99.9% and the maximum yield was 85.3% after a reaction time of 10 h, which were much higher than those reported previously. In addition, the production of (R)-HBME increased significantly by using a fed-batch strategy of tuning pH, with a space-time yield of approximately 265 g L-1 d-1, thus the issue in previous research of relatively low substrate concentrations appears to be solved. Besides, the established bio-catalytic system was proved to be feasible up to a 150 mL scale with a large-scale relatively high substrate concentration and selectivity. For further industrial application, these results open a way to use of whole cells of engineered E. coli for challenging higher substrate concentrations of β-ketone esters enantioselective reduction reactions.

Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE Uninterrupted warfarin during cryoballoon ablation (CB-A) of atrial fibrillation (AF) has been widely accepted. However, to our knowledge, no previous studies exist investigating the optimal intensity of anticoagulation with warfarin for CB-A. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of uninterrupted low-intensity warfarin for CB-A of AF in the elderly. METHODS Paroxysmal AF patients (age ≥ 70 years) who underwent CB-A were enrolled prospectively. The participants were stratified into 2 groups based on international normalized ratio (INR) before ablation (INR in group A: 1.5 to 2.0; INR in group B: 2.0-2.5). Primary endpoints included periprocedural thromboembolic complications and major bleeding. Secondary endpoints were new asymptomatic cerebral emboli (ACE) and minor bleeding. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION A total of 144 patients were enrolled (group A: 65; group B: 79). In group A, the use of concomitant antiplatelet drugs was more common. Also, the mean HAS-BLED score was significantly higher (2.4 ± 0.8 vs 2.0 ± 0.6, P < .01) and the mean activated clotting time (ACT) during the procedure was significantly lower (302 ± 14 s vs 311 ± 11 s, P < .01). Other clinical characteristics were balanced between the 2 groups. No thromboembolic complications and major bleeding occurred in either group. The incidence of periprocedural ACE was comparable between the 2 groups (9.2% vs 6.3%, P = .74). The incidence of minor bleeding in group A and group B was 4.6% and 11.4%, respectively (P = .14). WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION Compared with standard-intensity warfarin, uninterrupted low-intensity warfarin might not increase the incidence of thromboembolic complications and might be associated with less bleeding risk during the perioperative period of cryoballoon ablation in the elderly. Large trials are needed to confirm these results.
